Chapter 194

It is well known that what a girl wants is an attitude; regardless of who is right or wrong, what she always wants is an attitude from the boy.

"Don't you want to take a photo?"

Using the pretext of speaking, Ye Qingfeng intentionally or unintentionally moved closer to Ling, suddenly reaching out to wrap his arm around her waist, while his other hand pulled out his phone to aim it at the two of them in a selfie pose.

"Come on, give me a smile~"

"Wait a second!"

Feeling the palm on her waist, Ling's body went limp uncontrollably; she hurriedly squeezed out a smile and subconsciously made a peace sign.

"Click—!"

Ye Qingfeng pressed the shutter button immediately after.

The first photo of the two of them appeared in Ye Qingfeng's phone gallery.

"Let me see, quick!"

Ling hurriedly snatched the phone from Ye Qingfeng and opened the photo to check it.

Against the backdrop of the azure and clear sky, time stood still, leaving a beautiful image of Ye Qingfeng and Ling.

Ling was nestled affectionately in Ye Qingfeng's arms; his smile was so confident, while she appeared unusually flustered, creating a natural-looking picture.

"It's all your fault! Why were you in such a rush!" Ling pouted in dissatisfaction, saying she was going to delete the photo, "You made me look ugly as hell! Delete it and let's take another one."

"I don't think so!"

Ye Qingfeng nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the photo, pulling the phone back from Ling's hand and not giving her the chance to delete it.

"Delete it!"

Ling immediately reached out to grab it, but with Ye Qingfeng's height advantage, she couldn't find a single opportunity.

"I'm going to get angry! Delete it right now!"

Ling pretended to be angry and furrowed her brows tightly.

"Tell me first, what exactly are you dissatisfied with?"

"You didn't give me any preparation time at all! At the very least, wait for me to get ready!"

"But life's surprises are always sudden; who ever has time to prepare for them?"

Ye Qingfeng easily blocked Ling's attempt to grab the phone, seized the opportunity to tuck it into his spatial backpack, and said slowly in a casual tone.

Ling was taken aback, then her body trembled slightly, her eyes lowered, and her mood became unprecedentedly low.

"So, surprises are always sudden, but life must go on. Regardless of what Ling has experienced before, can we face the future together from now on?"

Ye Qingfeng hugged Ling's waist tightly from behind, rested his chin on her head, and softly comforted this lost and uneasy young girl.

"You..."

Ling held back her tears, struggling for a long time to squeeze out a single word.

"What about me?"

Ye Qingfeng stroked Ling's cheek and asked in a cheeky tone.

"You're playing dirty like this..." Ling couldn't help but laugh out loud upon hearing Ye Qingfeng's tone, "Seriously! You always like to ruin the mood!"

"Is that okay?"

Ye Qingfeng's tone was low, yet filled with anticipation.

"Okay!"

Ling responded solemnly.

She then turned around and threw herself into Ye Qingfeng's arms, feeling his warm body temperature, which allowed her previously low mood to settle.

After hugging for who knows how long, Ling poked her head out from Ye Qingfeng's arms and waved her small fist in front of his face.

"But one thing is one thing! It's perfectly fine for me to beat you up to vent my anger about the Zhu Yuan situation, right?"

"Hit me lightly~ Sister Ling, I'm afraid of pain!"

"Know how to beg for mercy now? Too late, take this! Muda muda!!"

Ling didn't actually use much force, and Ye Qingfeng pretended to beg for mercy repeatedly, finally ending the matter when someone ran out of stamina.

"Wuu wuu! Ling is domestic-abusing me~ I'm going to tell Zhe!"

"You... you dare!"

Ling gasped for air and raised her fist in threat.

"I'm running back right now to tell Zhe!"

Ye Qingfeng turned and ran away without the slightest hesitation, and Ling followed closely behind after a second of stunned silence.

The two of them chased each other onto the subway and returned to the video store before dinner.

As a result, Ye Qingfeng and Ling didn't dare to walk in for a long time, just standing foolishly outside the video store.

"Ling, this is your home, right? You go in first."

Ye Qingfeng took a step back and made a "you first" gesture toward Ling.

"No, no, no! You go in first."

Ling took two steps back in succession.

Clearly, neither side wanted to hide the news of them being together from Zhe, but neither wanted to be the first to speak.

Little 18 inside the video store noticed the movement at the entrance, ran over with its short legs making "un-na un-na" sounds, quietly pulled open the door, and immediately noticed Ling and Ye Qingfeng deferring to each other at the entrance.

It immediately sprinted upstairs, heading straight for Zhe's room.

"Un-na—! Un-na-na!"

Little 18 burst into Zhe's room and shouted at Zhe, who was engrossed in something on the bed.

"What? Ling and Qingfeng are back?"

Although Zhe didn't understand what the Bangboo meant, he understood the general meaning from its flustered tone.

He quickly turned off the TV, took out the videotape, and only then ran downstairs with peace of mind, but the empty scene before him left him dumbfounded.

Wait, what? Where are they?

Zhe thought it was a misunderstanding, but just as he turned around, he heard the bustling noise outside the door; it was unsurprisingly Ling and Ye Qingfeng.

Although he didn't understand why they didn't come in after returning, he still took the initiative to step forward and push open the door.

"Why are you two standing foolishly outside after coming back?"

Zhe asked, full of confusion as he watched the two of them constantly backing away.

"Haha! Brother, what a coincidence to run into you here..."

Upon hearing Zhe's voice, Ling stood at attention on the spot and said, pretending to be calm.

"What's wrong with this kid?" Zhe tilted his head with question marks all over, walked out the door, and reached out to touch Ling's forehead, "She doesn't have a fever! Why is she starting to talk nonsense?"

"Haha..."

Ling gave a dry, forced laugh and winked at Ye Qingfeng with panicked eyes.

"Shall we go in first?"

Ye Qingfeng felt unprecedented pressure at this moment and swallowed hard.

"Just come in, why act like outsiders?"

Zhe frowned, quite puzzled.

"Right! Qingfeng, let's go in."

"Let's go."

The two of them walked into the video store step by step with trepidation.

Ye Qingfeng didn't understand why it was like this; he clearly possessed excellent professional qualities and could keep a straight face anytime, anywhere.

Yet Zhe's appearance was like a final boss, carrying some kind of negative buff that caused his facial expression management to miraculously fail.

Watching the two of them walk in with stiff steps like zombies, even a fool would understand that these two were hiding something from him.

"Little 18, Eous, block the door!"

Zhe followed slowly behind the two, closed the door immediately upon entering the video store, and shouted at the two Bangboo not far away.

"Un-na!"

"Un-na-na!"

Little 18 and Eous used their backs to brace against the door without the slightest hesitation.

"Brother... what are you doing?"

Ling squeezed out a smile, pretending to be calm.

"Speak, what have you two been doing behind my back?"

Zhe scanned the two with a serious face; Ling subconsciously avoided his gaze, and his eyes finally landed on Ye Qingfeng.

"Zhe, let's get this straight first: no matter what I say in a moment, you must stay calm."

Ye Qingfeng took a deep breath, noticed Ling, who was silent on the side, and realized he couldn't count on her, so he stepped forward and put his hand on Zhe's shoulder.

"Fine, go ahead."

Zhe nodded heavily.

For a moment, the atmosphere was incomparably heavy, even the sound of heartbeats was incredibly clear; the two Bangboo blocking the door pricked up their ears in unison.
