72: Let's watch the meteor shower together

After taking the photos, seeing Ye Xi's provocative gaze, Xiao Ai gritted her teeth, pondered for a few seconds, and then thought of a way to tease Ye Xi.

"Sister Xuening, I often hear Ye Xi Jie mention you, saying how beautiful and stunning you are, and seeing you today, it's certainly true." Xiao Ai held Li Xuening's hand and swayed it, her sweet voice carrying a hint of coquettishness.

With Xiao Ai holding her hand, Li Xuening's face flushed slightly. Her future wife was still watching, how could she flirt with other girls?

She was about to refuse, but seeing Xiao Ai's adorable eyes, she felt a pang of reluctance.

The girl had just helped her so much; it would be too much to not even let her hold her hand. Perhaps she was overthinking it, and the girl genuinely just wanted to develop a normal friendship with her.

"Xiao Ai Meimei is also very beautiful," Li Xuening responded with a smile.

Ye Xi, who had originally wanted Xiao Ai to continue being a third wheel, immediately felt a sense of crisis. Her girlfriend couldn't possibly be poached by a bug in the system, could she?

No, it must be this dog system trying to annoy her. Anyway, the photos were done, and it was time to get rid of her.

"Xiao Ai Meimei, didn't you say you had something to tell me?" Ye Xi walked over, grabbed Xiao Ai's hand, and pulled her away from Li Xuening.

"Something to say? I don't remember anything." Xiao Ai also understood that Ye Xi wanted to get rid of her.

She lowered her head and looked into the air, giving off an impression of naive innocence, with even a hint of grievance in her eyes.

"I just remembered something I need to discuss with you privately."

Ye Xi used a lot of force to pull Xiao Ai's hand and walked away.

Seeing Li Xuening about to follow, Ye Xi winked at Li Xuening and said, "Sister Xuening, please wait here for a moment, we'll be gone for a few minutes."

"Mm, alright."

Although Xiao Ai was very cute and pretty, Li Xuening still felt it was inappropriate to bring her along for a romantic outing.

Arriving at a deserted corner, Ye Xi released Xiao Ai's hand, placed her hand on her shoulder, and said with a smile, "Don't go too far, still trying to hit on my girlfriend."

"I'll tell you a secret: your wife's hands are fragrant and soft, maybe even kissable. I really like them..." Xiao Ai smiled at Ye Xi, her eyes full of a desire for revenge.

"Go home quickly, I really don't want to see you right now. Today is very important to me, don't mess things up." Ye Xi suddenly felt a bit of regret.

"But you didn't say that before! You wanted me to be a third wheel with you all along. I can even stand between the two of you, you know."

Hearing Xiao Ai's bold words, Ye Xi's face immediately flushed.

"You dog system, you're getting dirtier and dirtier."

"It's influenced by your personality, of course. What kind of host you have, what kind of system you get."

...

A few minutes later, Ye Xi reappeared before Li Xuening.

"Where's Xiao Ai Meimei?" Li Xuening was a little worried.

"Sister Xuening, you don't have to worry about her, she went home."

Hearing Ye Xi say this, Li Xuening didn't think much of it. Xiao Ai was Ye Xi's friend, and also her friend. Xiao Ai had helped them this time, and she would find an opportunity to thank her later.

"Should we go crazy?" Seeing no one around, Li Xuening put an arm around Ye Xi's waist.

"Go crazy?" Ye Xi was a little bewildered, her mind full of inappropriate thoughts, naturally turning to something vulgar.

"No, no, no, this is an amusement park, not at home or a hotel. How could we do that kind of thing here?" Ye Xi's face was flushed, and she shook her head frantically. She heard the first time was very painful, and she was afraid of pain.

Seeing Ye Xi's shy appearance, Li Xuening naturally knew Ye Xi had misunderstood. Her words were deliberately ambiguous, also to test Ye Xi's attitude towards that kind of thing.

Li Xuening gently tapped Ye Xi's head and smiled, "Honey, what are you thinking? I wasn't talking about that."

It wasn't until Li Xuening pointed to the roller coaster in the distance that Ye Xi slowly breathed a sigh of relief, blaming herself for reading too many explicit books.

"Ride the roller coaster? We can! I still prefer exciting things," Ye Xi replied, regaining her composure.

Li Xuening, seeing no one around, leaned closer to Ye Xi again, her face flushed with a smile, and said, "You just said we couldn't do that kind of thing at the amusement park, does that mean we can at a hotel or at home?"

Ye Xi: "???"

Ye Xi was a little tragic. Sister Xuening, your question is too blunt, how am I supposed to answer that? Since it was difficult to answer, Ye Xi simply didn't answer.

"Alright, I was just joking, darling, don't take it seriously." Seeing Ye Xi not respond, Li Xuening covered her face and turned away, feeling quite embarrassed herself.

However, Ye Xi didn't directly refuse, which meant there was a chance for later that night.

After the roller coaster stopped, the two went to find their seats and fastened their seatbelts.

"How about we don't play this, and do something romantic instead?" Ye Xi nervously gripped the handrail beside her; she was still a little scared.

"Something romantic? A carousel? That's for kids, isn't it? You're not scared, are you?" Li Xuening chuckled.

"Nonsense, me, scared of this thing? Are you kidding? If you get scared later, grab my hand." Ye Xi put her hands on her hips, feigning composure.

Li Xuening didn't expose her. This girl just liked to put on a brave face, perfectly displaying the expression of 'I'm scared but I'll pretend otherwise.'

Actually, she quite liked the current Ye Xi. The former Ye Xi was quiet, sweet, well-mannered, and very good at disguising things, even a bit of a 'green tea' girl. She was well aware of these things, but she didn't want to expose them.

Because she knew that if she exposed them, the two of them would never have a future. Fortunately, through her observation, Ye Xi's nature wasn't bad, and she still had a trace of sincerity towards her, which made her very relieved.

"Everyone check your seatbelts, the ride is about to start," a staff member called out loudly.

"Remember, if you get scared later, grab my hand and don't let go, no matter what," Li Xuening said with a slight curl of her lips, looking at Ye Xi.

"Shouldn't I be the one saying that?" Ye Xi waved her hand, panicking inside, but still feigned a nonchalant expression.

The roller coaster started slowly, then suddenly accelerated. Ye Xi felt as if her whole body was flying, and the immense feeling of weightlessness made her uncomfortable.

"Ahhh..."

She felt like her heart was about to fly out, as if she was being thrown into a washing machine and spun wildly.

She met Li Xuening's gaze and noticed Li Xuening was secretly laughing at her.

Soon, she started to overthink, wondering if the roller coaster broke down, at this height, would she be instantly killed by the fall?

No, I have a system. If I die, I might even be resurrected. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Ye Xi silently comforted herself.

Suddenly, the roller coaster made a sharp turn in the air, and Ye Xi's face gradually turned pale.

At this moment, a warm hand tightly grasped hers, which made Ye Xi feel incredibly secure. Yes, having a girlfriend felt good.

As the roller coaster slowly came to a stop, Ye Xi opened her tightly shut eyes, her whole body rigid as if paralyzed.

"Do you want to go on the pendulum ride?" Li Xuening squatted down and gently patted Ye Xi's back.

"Are you deliberately messing with my head?" Ye Xi looked at her helplessly.

Li Xuening pondered for a few seconds, then spoke again, "Then do you want to ride the Ferris wheel?"

Ye Xi smiled and said, "That's fine, but it looks better in the evening."

Time quickly came to evening, Li Xuening and Ye Xi, hand in hand, walked through the bustling crowd. The two arrived at the Ferris wheel to buy tickets.

This was the most romantic attraction in the amusement park, and there were many people, requiring a long queue.

Li Xuening didn't want to wait that long. She shouted, "We don't want to queue! Who can sell us their tickets? We are willing to pay ten times the price."

As soon as Li Xuening said this, the crowd immediately erupted. A double ticket was 199, so ten times the price would be nearly 2000 yuan. Any other time would be fine, it didn't have to be today.

"Us."

"Us."

The crowd rushed towards Ye Xi and Li Xuening, scrambling to be first.

The men, seeing Ye Xi and Li Xuening's stunningly beautiful faces, took a deep breath and suddenly felt their girlfriends beside them were no longer as appealing.

When they saw the luxury bag Li Xuening was carrying, they also realized she was a rich woman, and they really wanted to hug her.

"Little sisters, I was the first one here, buy our tickets," a man volunteered.

"What's the use of being first? This kind of thing needs fate. I see you're so ugly, you definitely don't have it. Little sister, do you have a partner? I also have two tickets I can give you for free," another man said, not to be outdone.

"You little good-for-nothing, how dare you say I'm ugly? I'll beat you to death!"

The two men started fighting, and Li Xuening and Ye Xi felt they couldn't bear to watch.

"We don't want ten times the price for these two tickets, eight times is fine. The main thing is we want to make friends with you two."

"Five times."

"Three times."

"One time."

"I'll give them for free."

...

Looking at the increasingly noisy crowd, Ye Xi felt even more speechless. She had intended to give them a benefit, but they started internal competition and ended up giving them a benefit instead.

Li Xuening looked at two girls nearby and asked, "Are you planning to sell us your tickets?"

"Yes." The two girls were overjoyed. Today was truly a lucky day, encountering such a good thing as money falling from the sky.

"Give me your tickets and open your payment QR codes."

After completing the transaction with the two girls, Ye Xi and Li Xuening entered the cabin one after another, urged by the staff.

As the Ferris wheel slowly ascended, the ground moved further and further away from them, and the city's night view unfolded.

"It's getting pretty high. If you're scared, just grab my hand." Li Xuening looked at Ye Xi dotingly.

"I'm not scared." Ye Xi looked down for a moment and was immediately startled, hugging Li Xuening. At this point, Ye Xi even wondered if she had acrophobia.

"You're really stubborn," Li Xuening said, stroking Ye Xi's pretty little face.

"Then do you like me, the stubborn one?" Ye Xi asked with a smile.

"I do." Li Xuening embraced Ye Xi, gently stroking her head.

"Then what do you like about me?" Ye Xi's lips curved into a smile, and a blush spread across her face.

"Everything." Li Xuening pondered for a few seconds. She wanted to praise her beauty, her sensibility, her cleverness, to use every positive adjective in the world to describe her, but in the end, it condensed into just two words.

Ye Xi poked Li Xuening's fair forehead with her finger and said with a smile, "Smooth talker, but I like it."

When the Ferris wheel reached its highest point, the whole world seemed to quiet down, leaving only the sound of their heartbeats.

"Today is your birthday, do you want to try making a wish at the highest point?" Ye Xi suddenly rested her head on Li Xuening's shoulder, her cherry-blossom-like hair brushing against Li Xuening's collarbone.

"Of course." Li Xuening nodded.

"I'll tell you another secret: there might be a meteor shower in a bit, and the wish-granting power will be doubled." Ye Xi rubbed her cheek against Li Xuening's.

Li Xuening was slightly stunned, thinking Ye Xi was just trying to cheer her up. If there really was a meteor shower, the news would have reported it already.

"I heard that if you kiss at the top..." A minty breath brushed against her earlobe, and Li Xuening clutched Ye Xi tightly.

"I'm willing." Ye Xi lowered her head slightly, her eyes full of deep affection and tenderness.

Li Xuening's cheeks were flushed, her long eyelashes trembled slightly. She lowered her head a little, closed her eyes, and her red lips slowly moved closer to Ye Xi.

Li Xuening lowered her head and kissed Ye Xi's cherry lips. Her movements were extremely clumsy, and she only felt Ye Xi's red lips were incredibly soft.

Although it wasn't their first kiss, previous ones had been fleeting. This was the first time they truly let go!

Ye Xi was a bit surprised. Being kissed so forcefully, she felt both delight and a little resistance. Ultimately, under Li Xuening's repeated exploration, she slowly succumbed.

A gentle breeze blew, and their skin gradually took on a rosy hue.

After a long while, the two reluctantly separated, their beautiful faces tinged with a blush.

At this moment, silence spoke louder than words. Both instinctively lowered their heads, their foreheads touching.

Just as the two were immersed in this beautiful and romantic moment, a bright light suddenly streaked across the sky.

"Sister Xuening, look quickly! A meteor shower! I heard that making a wish during a meteor shower is super effective." Ye Xi gently shook Li Xuening's arm and pointed to the sky.

Li Xuening slowly raised her head, following Ye Xi's finger, and saw streaks of meteors like brilliant fireworks streaking across the night sky, trailing long tails that instantly illuminated the dark expanse.

Li Xuening excitedly covered her mouth. Ye Xi had just casually mentioned it, and she didn't expect it to actually come true.

In her eyes, it was Ye Xi who had brought this meteor shower.

"Hurry and make a wish, together, together."

"Don't talk, the opportunity is fleeting."

The two closed their eyes, fingers intertwined, and devoutly made their wishes.

Li Xuening silently prayed in her heart. Her request was simple: she only hoped that the person in front of her would be happy and joyful for a lifetime, never separating.

Ye Xi also silently prayed in her heart. She hoped that she and Li Xuening would be happy together, blissful for a lifetime, never to be separated.

She hoped she could be Li Xuening's eternal support, shielding her from wind and rain, and protecting her throughout her life.

The meteor shower lasted for quite a while. When the last meteor disappeared into the horizon, the two slowly opened their eyes.

"What did you wish for?" Li Xuening's cheeks were flushed as she pulled Ye Xi into her broad embrace.

"I won't tell you, it won't come true if I say it," Ye Xi said coquettishly, pressing against her chest.
