Chapter 439 - A Date (II)

The pair first went to the central department store of ArtWorld.

Xiong Zhi was still wearing her dress, and since they planned to visit as many attractions as they could in this huge amus.e.m.e.nt park, she needed to change into a more comfortable get-up.

"Zhi'er, let's wear this." Linfeng lifted his hands holding two matching shirts.

Xiong Zhi looked at him in surprise, taken aback by Linfeng's sparkling eyes, and thus failed to realize what he was holding.

"You want to change as well? Didn't you just change?" she asked, looking at his casual sports attire.

Linfeng acted as if he did not hear anything and held up the smaller shirt in front of her.

"It's about the same size, it should look good on you. Do you remember the matching shirt you bought for me before?"

Xiong Zhi suddenly remembered their first date under her operation-slash-careful planning.

She smiled at the memory. That time, she had managed to con Linfeng into wearing a couple shirt.

"Of course, I do. It took a lot of effort for me to get you to wear the shirt, if I remember."

"That time, I was caught off guard and planned to reject your gift because I know it's wrong to do that as your aide. " Linfeng defended himself. "But you acted coquettishly and I couldn't bear to refuse you."

"I did?"

"You did, like this." Linfeng raised both hands in front of him, tilted his head, and blinked like a puppy.

Xiong Zhi: "…Pfft."

She inadvertently chuckled.

Did she act like that? But Linfeng was so cute, ah.

Linfeng: "Who can bear to reject your request when you act like that? I can't be heartless at that time."

Xiong Zhi took the shirt in amus.e.m.e.nt.

"Alright. In return for giving in to me so generously before, I shall grant you this tiny request."

In fact, she had no plans to refuse at all.

Linfeng smiled. "I will change too."

The couple went to the changing room, then Linfeng paused and looked behind him helplessly.

"Zhi'er, you can't go with me in here. There's an unoccupied room right next to this."

Although he very much wanted to change in the same room, but out of his respect for his girlfriend, especially under the department store's staff's eyes, they could not do that just yet.

Not to mention, he really had no full trust on his self-control in front of her in such tiny closed places.

He changed his words. "Never mind, you use this room. I will change in the next room."

Linfeng closed the door for Xiong Zhi and hurriedly went to the other one.

Xiong Zhi was left alone inside the cubicle. She looked at the door the man had closed then at the shirt in her hands.

Her lips curved up. To think that he would choose this print, no one else would have believed her if she told them.

Out in the streets, with the couple wearing matching pink shirts with a couple teddies' kissing, the two looked younger and more adorable.

The few people on the streets could not help but look. Mainly, they were looking at the tall and strapping man who dared to wear such a girlish pink couple shirt in public. However, the subject did not look awkward at all. He looked more refreshing and young.

Because his hair was no longer brushed up and the inky black strands now hung down to his forehead, coupled with the flamboyant shirt, no one realized the charismatic leader in black suit from earlier.

The gap moe was just too big.

The same for Xiong Zhi.

She had tied up her hair into a fluffy bun with a pink hair tie and wore a red-framed clear eyeglasses. She was confident that they would not be recognized so easily now with their get-up.

Although she did not mind everyone knowing about their relationship, but for today, she did not want to be disturbed at all.

After all, there were a lot of media here covering ArtWorld's grand opening.

ArtWorld just opened so the central area where Xiong Zhi and Linfeng were exploring at was not crowded yet.

There were even some places where Xiong Zhi and Linfeng could enjoy themselves alone.

If there were people, they would have trouble resisting the urge to take a picture of this cute couple.

Time seemed to go back for them.

Linfeng and Xiong Zhi forgot all their troubles and let loose in the rides.

Whether it was in bumper cars, pendulum rides, and roller coasters, they tried as many as they could.

In the middle of the thrilling rides, once they look at the person beside them and see his or her shining eyes, they would grin and laugh in return.

The adrenaline of the rides made them more unrestrained.

Xiong Zhi had never had a fun and carefree childhood where she could enjoy parks like this.

Linfeng was the same. Their lives before consisted of studying, discipline, etiquette, and training.

To think that they would be able to experience what it felt like as a carefree child when they were finally grown-ups. Because they had never enjoyed their childhood, they made sure to create as much lovely memories in this moment.

They did not care if they giggled like fools and laughed like kids, or scream at the apex of the rides whenever they felt exhilarated or scared.

Like a child, they expressed their emotions without restraint.

When they wanted to take a breather, they would calm themselves, walk while holding hands, and eat food from the street stalls they fancied. The couple fed each other with food and sometimes there would be a small competition who managed to guess one's preference in snacks. Of course, Linfeng won.

Then they would ride the mini-train to another destination and dive into the thrill of the rides again.

The cheers and laughter inside ArtWorld continued while the sun slowly approached the horizon.

Xiong Zhi was a bit dizzy from all the rides. Her ponytail was disheveled and her eyes were slightly dazed. Her pale face was back to the blank expression again.

Beside her, Linfeng was still in a good condition.

His collar was a bit messy and his hair was sticking in every direction, but his lips wore a deep smile that was never erased since he held his girlfriend's hand at the beginning of the date.

He gently smoothed Xiong Zhi's hair and retied the locks back into a neat fluffy bun before handing an opened bottle of Evian water to the dazed girl.

"Have a drink, Zhi'er. Do you want to visit History Gala? I saw it on the way. There are rides inside the cave!" Linfeng's eyes were sparkling.

Xiong Zhi blankly drank water. Feeling the cool rush of water in her throat, she recovered from her daze and looked at her man.

The tall man beside her had flushed cheeks, bright eyes, and a happy smile.

She stared for a while more and smiled.

The current Linfeng was vastly different from the past Linfeng who was like a statue which she had to drag forward on their first visit to an amus.e.m.e.nt park.

Xiong Zhi: "I remember that you kept asking me to go home on our first date, as if you have no interest in any of the rides. It turns out, you actually like rides so much."

"..." Linfeng did remember that.

He coughed. "I can't really be blamed. That time, I was adamant on rejecting your advances because I thought you're just playing around. But really, my domineering Young Miss, I suffered a lot that day."

"…You did not enjoy?" Xiong Zhi's expression was faint but she exuded accusation with her lips pursed.

The tall man patted her head. "How could that be possible, I enjoyed it a lot. I gave in at the end, didn't I?"

"So why 'suffered'?" she insisted asking.

"I suffered a lot holding myself back. You have no idea how irresistible you were, especially when you sang back then. I almost kneeled in defeat, but desperately tried to stop myself. What is that if not suffering?" Linfeng honestly answered.

A small grin appeared on Xiong Zhi's lips, the dimples on her cheeks showing.

"…Heh. It was effective after all. So all my plans helped?"

She had thought that she lost that day. Linfeng of that time had a towering wall which was hard to overcome. Who would have thought that the truth would come out in three years! She won, hehe.

"Plans?" Linfeng tilted his head. What plans were she talking about?

Xiong Zhi: (☉｡☉)!

Her mouth slipped.

Linfeng saw his girlfriend's eyes widen a little. It was very subtle, but he was Linfeng after all and knew that he caught something from his Young Miss.

Linfeng's peach blossom eyes narrowed and he leaned closer.

"What is this plan you're talking about? Is it a very devious plan?" he teased Xiong Zhi.

Xiong Zhi stared at the long and dense eyelashes fluttering in front of her.

"If I tell you, you won't get mad, right?"

Linfeng: …Was it really something to be mad about?

He blinked. "It depends," Linfeng answered, still in the same position.

Of course, he would not get mad at her. If it was too much like the bug around her spreading his virus to her, he might get upset at the bug, but he would never get mad at Xiong Zhi.

Xiong Zhi lowered her head a bit shyly, bit her lips, then hesitantly stared up his eyes.

"That… well, Song Xuantin and I created a plan three years ago..."

'Young Miss Song?'

Linfeng's brows rose. "A plan? What for?"

The young woman in front of him fidgeted, as if thinking for a moment.

Then, the blush on her cheeks deepened as she finally looked up with determination like she had finally decided on something.

"It was a plan to..." she started while encircling her arms around Linfeng's neck. "…To capture your heart."

She tugged him closer and gave him a quick kiss on his lips.

It was a short kiss because Linfeng had not had time to recover when Xiong Zhi distanced herself.

The man was frozen stiff.

Xiong Zhi: "..."

Based on what she had studied, if you give a kiss to your beloved, it was unlikely that they would get mad at you.

"You're not mad right?" Xiong Zhi asked after a moment of silence.

The man finally moved, covered his face, and looked away.

"Hmm. Not." His voice was muffled.

Xiong Zhi finally smiled again.

Hehe, it worked.

One of her secrets was out and Linfeng did not get mad.

Feeling relieved and complacent, she took his hand and led the way forward.

"You want to ride History Gala, right? I know the way."

"Mmm." Linfeng was still hiding his face under his left hand. Only his red neck and red ears were shown.

'Dammit, my girlfriend is really...savage.'
