Qiao Ning looked astonished and surprised as she turned back: “Huh? I have never gone behind your back before. Didn’t we go to the gym together with my dad? And I even recommended you the annual card that I got when school started! Did I do something wrong? Why did you accuse me?”
Chi Xiaoman, with no consideration for volume, responded loudly: “I was just asking, why are you reacting so strongly?”
“Isn’t it because you suddenly started paying attention to my body that I got scared?” Qiao Ning crossed her arms and hugged herself. “Your words were just too weird, like a strange auntie!”
Seeing the smug look on this little white face, Chi Xiaoman was instantly filled with rage, regretting how she had been blinded by his young body once again.
She wanted to strangle him!
Without saying a word, Chi Xiaoman turned and started walking in the direction of the mountain according to the sign. She walked faster and faster…
“Wait for me, Chi Xiaoman, Manman, jiejie… forgive me, I was wrong…”
Qiao Ning chased after her, persuading and pleading for forgiveness. The two finally made up halfway up the mountain and held hands as they continued their climb to the peak.
The view at the peak was even more beautiful, the air fresher. A cool evening breeze brushed past them, and Chi Xiaoman felt her pores open.
They playfully set up their tent, and began to cook noodles.
The pot was out, and there was water, but where was the portable stove and the noodles?
Chi Xiaoman looked at Qiao Ning in confusion, “Hmm?”
Qiao Ning looked even more confused, “…seems like… I forgot them in the trunk… I was in a rush to chase after you, I forgot to bring them…”
After a few moments of staring at each other with wide eyes, Chi Xiaoman’s stomach growled in dissatisfaction. “What about the snacks?”
Qiao Ning said, “…aren’t they on the passenger seat? You’ve been eating them the whole time…”
Chi Xiaoman’s vision went black, and Qiao Ning quickly supported her shoulder to comfort her. “It’s okay, if you fall asleep, you won’t feel hungry!”
“Go borrow some! I don’t want to starve,” Chi Xiaoman slaps Qiao Ning’s thigh with her hand and then pulls him up, heading towards a group of people not far away.
This group of people consisted of both men and women, laughing and talking. They seemed like a gathering of couples, and they all appeared open and enthusiastic. They wouldn’t be the type of people who would let them go hungry, right?
And indeed, this group of people was quite open. When they saw the handsome man and beautiful woman approaching, they didn’t hesitate and immediately pulled them to sit down, welcoming them as new friends.
Even someone as socially adept as Chi Xiaoman was a little overwhelmed, and the lovey-dovey atmosphere around the couples made her and Qiao Ning very uncomfortable.
After awkwardly laughing and chatting with them for a while, Chi Xiaoman finally explained their situation.
Then this group of young couples became even more lively and enthusiastic, saying they could have everything if they won a kissing game.
Chi Xiaoman’s expression turned strange as she looked at Qiao Ning, afraid to confirm, “I didn’t hear wrong, right… what… game?”
Qiao Ning blinked, “If I didn’t hear wrong… it’s, it’s kissing?”
The two of them locked eyes, and in their minds, some explicit and hot scenes involuntarily appeared.
Chi Xiaoman’s face instantly turned as if it had been burned, she immediately averted her gaze, wanting to explain to others that they were not a couple.
However, the other couples around them had already started to cuddle and exhibit affectionate gestures, and Chi Xiaoman was hesitating. Meanwhile, the boss of the group had already started enthusiastically counting down.
“Ten, nine, eight…”
Chi Xiaoman widened her eyes, unable to speak. Qiao Ning also looked around in a daze and panic, only seeing overly intimate actions everywhere. The two of them, attacked by pink bubbles, exchanged rushed glances, clueless about what to do, while the amorous couples around them couldn’t contain themselves and began to get into the mood ahead of time.
“Six… five… I’ll say it again, if you separate in the middle, it’ll be considered a failure, it must be a full five minutes… four… three…”
This countdown seemed to have some kind of magic; Chi Xiaoman became more and more panicked, and her mind became a mess.
She and Qiao Ning started staring at each other.
“Should we starve ourselves?”
“Yeah, we can starve…”
“Alright, a five-minute kiss. Let’s not talk about other things, or our lips might end up bleeding!”
