Chapter 1639: The Mysterious Qi Shishi

Feisu Chinese.

Zirui kindly reminded her: "I am a boy, and I'm quite heavy. Are you sure you can carry me?"

She retorted: "How heavy are you? Are you heavier than a brick? I can carry bricks, so carrying you is a piece of cake."

She is different from ordinary girls; she has endured hardships and is very strong.

"Alright, I'll listen to you," Zirui agreed.

Although he agreed, he was confident that if Qi Shishi didn't win, he could throw the game without leaving a trace.

The first plan: Zirui operates and wins, catching a doll.

The second plan: Qi Shishi operates, also wins, and catches a doll. This would result in neither winning nor losing.

Thus, the plan had to be adjusted. Zirui said: "How about this, I use the third plan, you use the fourth plan, and we both operate ten times in a row. As long as you use the fourth method to catch four in a row, we'll know until failure."

Qi Shishi nodded in agreement: "Okay, let's do as you say."

The second round of the PK officially began.

Zirui used the third plan, operated ten times in a row, caught nine dolls, and missed one.

Qi Shishi followed the fourth plan and also operated ten times in a row, catching ten dolls—a full sweep!

Zirui lost, and he accepted the bet.

According to the agreement, he carried Qi Shishi on his back and walked a lap around the mall.

She leaned on his back and asked: "What if we are seen by someone we know? Forget it, I'd better get down."

"No need to get down. What if we are seen? I'm actually afraid others won't see us."

"Why?"

"I hope someone witnesses this brief romance."

The originally sweet interaction suddenly turned sorrowful because of this sentence.

Neither of them spoke anymore; Sheng Zirui had completely killed the conversation!

Qi Shishi rested her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes.

She wanted to feel all of this with her heart and remember this moment. She didn't know what she would face in the future, but it would certainly be very difficult.

When things are bitter and tiring, thinking of this moment will still make her heart feel sweet, right?

He walked very slowly, not because he couldn't carry her anymore, but because he wanted to carry her for a little longer.

As a result... kind-hearted people kept coming over to ask: "Do you need help?"

"What's wrong with her? Call 120."

"Are you two okay?"

Zirui:...

Qi Shishi:...

They could only explain over and over: "We're fine."

"Thank you, we're fine."

"No need to call 120..."

When other couples are together sweetly, with a boy carrying a girl through a mall, they don't get misunderstood.

The reason is simple: others' faces are filled with happiness, and their smiles are bright and sunny.

But the two of them were heavy-hearted, looking as if they were ill.

Even so, they insisted on finishing the lap. One must keep their word; being trustworthy must be reflected in every aspect!

Qi Shishi got down from Zirui's back, gently took out a water bottle, unscrewed it, and handed it to his lips: "You've worked hard, drink some water."

He didn't use his hands, just took a sip from her hand.

At this moment, Qi Shishi's phone rang. She glanced at the number, and her expression changed slightly!

"Sorry, I need to take a call."

"Okay."

She took her phone and went out. Zirui waited, and he waited for half an hour.

When Qi Shishi returned, her expression was back to normal. She wanted to treat Zirui to dinner.

Zirui readily agreed: "Sure, let's go have noodles at Chenxin Snack."

His older brother's shop has affordable prices, and you can eat well and get full.

But she refused: "No, come with me. I've already arranged a restaurant."

Zirui followed her to the front of a magnificent Michelin restaurant.

"Here?"

"Yes, here."

This place isn't cheap. Zirui took one look at the scale of the exterior and knew the prices inside.

This kind of place is not something Qi Shishi can afford.

He shook his head and refused: "The food here isn't that good; it just looks nice. The plates are huge and the portions are tiny. Let's change to another place."

He didn't want Qi Shishi to spend money unnecessarily.

She is just an international student with limited funds.

"It's here, let's go in." Qi Shishi grabbed his hand and walked toward the door.

"Good evening, Miss."

"Good evening, Miss."

"This way, Miss!"

Unexpectedly, when Qi Shishi arrived here, it was as if she had returned home.

She is very familiar with this place, and the people here are all respectful toward her.

The two were led by a Servant to a table by the window and sat down; the Servant poured tea for them and asked respectfully, "Miss, when should I serve the meal?"

"Serve it now."

"Very well, please wait a moment, both of you."

The Servant left, and Zirui asked, "Why do they call you Miss?"

"Because I am the owner of this place."

She blinked mischievously: "I am young and still a student; I don't want to hear them call me Chairman, as it sounds like they're calling an old man, so they call me Miss instead. What do you think?"

Zirui:...

He had no particular feelings about the title, just felt very surprised.

"When did you come to own such a large restaurant?"

"Not long ago."

Not long ago?

An answer like that was equivalent to no answer at all.

She did not want to say, and Zirui did not continue to ask.

But he felt that Qi Shishi was different; at the very least, she was different from the Shi Shi he knew.

Before this, he thought he understood Qi Shishi very well, the kind where the two of them would tell each other everything without reservation!

Soon, the waiter brought out silver tableware and set a table full of food.

Wellington Steak.

White Truffle.

Mediterranean Caviar.

French Foie Gras.

These were all top-tier dishes in Western cuisine.

Qi Shishi still ate quickly and elegantly, but she put down her knife and fork after eating only a little.

Zirui also had no appetite; he only took a few bites before claiming he was full.

Eating top-tier food in a high-end restaurant was not as satisfying as standing on the street corner in the morning eating lamb skewers or having fast food at noon.

Zirui waited for Qi Shishi to take the initiative to explain it to him, but she did not explain!

After the meal.

Zirui dropped Qi Shishi off downstairs at her dormitory, and the two agreed to meet here early tomorrow morning.

The next day.

They prepared to climb Huaping Mountain.

Huaping Mountain, as its name suggests, is the tallest mountain in the vicinity.

The mountain peak is rugged and beautiful, with very distinct features.

The foot of the mountain is flat, with lush green grass and blooming mountain flowers; colorful flowers cover the mountains and plains, making it very beautiful.

The mountainside suddenly becomes steep, while the summit is similar to the foot of the mountain—flat and beautiful, covered in colorful flowers.

There is a cable car at the bottom of the mountain that can take you directly to the summit, but Qi Shishi was unwilling; she wanted to climb up step by step to experience the joy of hiking.

Zirui said: "Alright, if you get tired, I'll carry you."

This time, he was boasting.

It was fine at the beginning, but after climbing for a distance, the mountain path became increasingly steep; he was panting for breath, while Qi Shishi was still waiting for him up ahead.

Qi Shishi laughed: "Zirui, you lack exercise."

Zirui refused to accept it: "Don't get too smug; I was just letting, letting you win. I'll be able to catch up to you in a moment."

It is a very embarrassing thing for a boy to have less stamina than a girl.

He tried hard to catch up.
