Chapter 64: Tacit Understanding

~8 min read 1,517 words

Mu Youyu took another nap, but was still woken by the alarm; she had only slept five hours all day and couldn't muster any energy.

She fumbled for her phone in a daze, opened the chat with Jiang Liangjin, and her fingertips typed slowly: 【A Jin, what color are you wearing today】

Just as she sent it, Jiang Liangjin's reply popped up: 【Blue】

Mu Youyu stared at the screen, blinked, and had an idea.

She tossed the phone back to the bedside, got up and walked to the wardrobe, pulled open a nearby closet, and pulled out a set of dark blue short-sleeve top and long pants.

She yawned, walked into the bathroom, and the warm water washed over her body, finally dispelling some fatigue.

Just as Mu Youyu finished tidying up, Jiang Liangjin's call came in.

Hey, A Jin.

Come downstairs.

Mu Youyu hadn't expected Jiang Liangjin to already be waiting at her place; seeing him downstairs, she couldn't help but smile.

He wore a dark blue short-sleeve with tailored pants, same brand as Mu Youyu, paired with cool-looking wine-red hair.

Together they looked like a couple's outfit.

"Tacit understanding." Jiang Liangjin stepped forward, naturally taking the small bag from her hand, his fingertips lightly brushing her palm.

"Right, right!" Mu Youyu hurriedly pulled him toward his car.

She didn't mention that she had asked him what to wear.

Jiang Liangjin let her lead him, "Mm."

Mu Youyu got in first, "Let's go, let's go—Lin Ning and the others don't know if they've arrived yet!"

At the amusement park entrance, Lin Ning and the others were already waiting.

Xia Chaoyi looked at Mu Youyu and Jiang Liangjin's matching outfits, exaggeratedly covered his mouth, "A Jin, Yu Sis, you two are so in sync!"

Mu Youyu exclaimed, "Right, right!"

Jiang Liangjin merely glanced at him lightly.

Lin Ning saw her best friend admit it, also exaggeratedly covered her chest, stepped back, "You two planned this, huh? Why didn't you call me?"

Mu Youyu obediently said, "I forgot."

Lin Ning: "……"

Yu Anyi bumped over and nudged Mu Youyu's arm, "Nice! Still the same brand!"

Yan Yuan watched the show.

Bai Yun's eyes shone.

Hey, little Yu, is this admitting it?

Indeed, they've been childhood sweethearts~

Although it was Mu Youyu who didn't know what to wear and asked Jiang Liangjin.

But feeling the eyes of the others seeing through her, she also started to feel embarrassed.

She gave a light cough, changed the subject: "Lin Ning, didn't you say the rides are exciting? Let's hurry in."

Nobody teased further; as they stepped into the park, waves of screams came from all around.

Warm light filtered through the stained glass, casting mottled shadows on the ground, making people involuntarily look.

Although the park had just officially opened today, early‑entry visitors had already crowded each attraction to the point of being impassable.

Just the outside queues already had several lines!

Mu Youyu half‑squinted, not rushing to join the line, "Gee, that many people?"

Jiang Liangjin clicked his tongue, naturally opened the sun umbrella, and tilted the shade toward her.

His distinct‑knuckled fingers gripped the umbrella handle, the shade falling just right over her fair cheek.

"You even brought a sun umbrella?" Mu Youyu, finding it bothersome not to take it, also just put sunscreen in her bag.

"Afraid you'd feel hot." Jiang Liangjin nodded and replied.

He checked the weather today—30 degrees, clear skies.

Youbao fears heat the most.

Lin Ning turned her head, saw this opportunistic "person‑snatching" thing, and looked speechless: …… a misstep!

"Goodness, this popularity is too exaggerated!" Xia Chaoyi squinted toward the roller coaster direction and put on sunglasses.

Who would have thought it would be sold out on the first day.

Bai Yun fanned herself, pulled out a sun hat and put it on, "After all, it's just opened—I heard the roller coaster alone has four different tracks!"

She had made a guide yesterday, coming fully prepared!

Yan Yuan's eyes lit up instantly, "Wow, that's possible!"

"Good thing we took the special passage, otherwise today we'd probably only be able to stare at heads!" Yu Anyi said, wiggling her eyebrows at Lin Ning.

Lin Ning indicated she got it, waving her VIP pass, "Let's go, let's go—we'll head straight to the exclusive channel!"

At the exclusive channel entrance, the NPC immediately showed a standard smile, wearing a fairy‑style puffy skirt, voice soft and sweet: "Welcome, honored guests, this way please."

Mu Youyu noticed the NPC's hair tipped with a small white pearl hairpin, and glanced at it twice.

It looked a little familiar, but with makeup she couldn't place it.

The NPC seemed to sense her gaze and blinked.

Mu Youyu didn't have time to think further, and followed the others inside.

Inside the VIP passage it was quiet and elegant, a stark contrast to the noisy bustle outside.

Just as they entered the park, they saw many visitors casting envious glances—after all, this group's looks were truly striking!

Mu Youyu wore a dark blue short‑sleeve and long pants, her skin fair, brown hair, bright light eyes, naturally exuding a charming aura.

Jiang Liangjin had a head of eye‑catching wine‑red hair, the matching dark‑blue short‑sleeve making his posture upright, his noble aura radiating so that one couldn't look away.

Lin Ning wore a sharp black utility outfit, her brows and eyes showing a bit of heroic spirit, and her pink hair was extremely eye-catching in the sunlight.

Yan Yuan wore a cream‑white short outfit, paired with black ripped pants, and her orange hair made her features look brighter, giving her a cool look.

Yu Anni wore a pink waist‑cinched midi dress, with a large white bow at the back, the skirt swaying with her steps like a lively little butterfly. Her medium‑length hair was tied up in a bun with a bow, her eyes lively.

Bai Yun wore a light‑purple gradient dress, with a sun‑protection outer layer, her long hair draped over her shoulders, and a white lace‑trimmed sun hat on her head, giving her a tranquil and refined air.

Xia Chao Yi wore a refreshing short‑sleeve shirt and wide‑leg jeans, sunglasses on, looking handsome in the sunshine.

Lin Ning was flipping through the map, and after a while she looked up, "Hey, quickly see what you want to play!"

Seeing no one reply to her, she turned her head and saw that several people were busy with other things.

Bai Yun, who had been standing nearby, had already walked two meters away, raised her camera, and pressed the shutter, "The lighting here is absolutely gorgeous!"

She turned with a smile toward Xia Chao Yi, "Deskmate, deskmate! Help me take a few photos here."

Xia Chao Yi naturally took the camera, adjusted the angle, "Stand in the light and shadow, turn sideways to me… yes, smile a little."

"Looks great!"

The two of them gathered in front of the camera to look at the photos.

Yu Anni and Yan Yuan were also taking photos.

"Hey, Yuan Yuan, come over here!"

Only Mu Youyu pulled Jiang Liangjin over to Lin Ning, looking at the map in her hand.

Lin Ning rubbed her forehead.

Well, half of them didn't hear what she said.

Still, Youbao is a good baby.

Lin Ning cleared her throat, thrust the map toward everyone, and said, "Stop fussing over photos! Roller coaster, spinning flying chairs, bungee jump, parachute jump… all the thrilling rides are in the North Area—who dares to go?"

Bai Yun exclaimed, "Dare, dare, dare!"

Yu Anni snatched her phone from Yan Yuan's hand, "Let's go, let's go, let's go!"

Mu Youyu had long had her eye on the roller coaster marked "Extreme Speed Meteor" on the map, and she quickly pointed at it to indicate she wanted to ride it, "I'll go, I'll go, I'll go!"

This looks good, the tracks are almost twisted like a pretzel, she loves it!

Jiang Liangjin glanced at the description, "Hmm, let's try this one."

The two were in sync, obviously having made up their minds.

Seeing her interest, Lin Ning immediately snapped her fingers, pointed at the Extreme Speed Meteor Roller Coaster on the map, and said, "Then it's this roller coaster! What do you guys want to ride?"

She looked at the others.

Xia Chao Yi raised his hand, "I'm going too!"

Yan Yuan immediately followed suit, cracking her knuckles, "I want to ride this too! I have to conquer all four coaster tracks!"

Yu Anni hesitated a moment, then said, "You're all going, I can't be left alone!"

They had decided, and headed toward the North Area roller coaster entrance.

The VIP lane really saved hassle—before long they were seated on the roller coaster.

Jiang Liangjin naturally chose the seat next to Mu Youyu, reached over, and tightened her loose seat belt.

Lin Ning's motion paused: "Oh no, I'm a step late!"

She had no choice but to sit next to Yu Anni, whose body gave a little shake.

Yan Yuan, Bai Yun, and Xia Chao Yi were all excited.
