Chapter 107.3: Are They a Couple? (3)
Just as he was about to unbuckle his seatbelt, Ji Fanyin suddenly leaned over from the passenger seat and pressed a marshmallow against his lips.
“Ah.” She urged him to open his mouth.
Chen Yunsheng felt like his heart was going to explode.
He used to think that the feeling of liking a person was sweet yet scary, but he was starting to think that the adjective ‘scary’ was an understatement. ‘Terrifying’ would be more apt.
Taking advantage of the moment Chen Yunsheng obediently opened his mouth, she quickly popped the marshmallow into his mouth. “You’re just like a child, pouting whenever you’re unhappy.”
She unbuckled her seatbelt and alighted from the car.
Chen Yunsheng suckled on the cloyingly sweet marshmallow as he thought unhappily to himself: I’m not a child.
He raised his hoodie a little to look at his washboard abs and thought in self-affirmation: Definitely not a child.
After the short bout of self-motivation, he got down too. He was a little worried about Ji Fanyin’s massive fame in this world. It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that there was a 100% chance that she would be recognized in the ice cream store.
The ice cream store was unique in the sense that their products were all homemade, so they only sold a limited quantity each day. Due to that, the store wasn’t too big. Other than the counter, there were only three round tables.
By the time Chen Yunsheng entered the store, Ji Fanyin was already signing autographs for the store employees. “I want the ice cream ball. I want it exxxx~tra large.”
She emphasized the ‘ex’ syllable of ‘extra large’.
Chen Yunsheng was amused.
It’s more like she’s the wilful child here.
It might be due to the understanding and adoration of the people around her; that’s why she is always able to do whatever she wants. Her life has been smooth-sailing, such that despite her emotional maturity, she still retains the willfulness of a little child.
“No problem! You can eat as much as you want!” The store owner nodded fervently with a furious blush on his face.
Ji Fanyin glanced at Chen Yunsheng before gesturing toward him with her pen. “Give him one too.”
Like a row of sunflowers, the store owner and his employees suddenly turned their heads over all at once to look at Chen Yunsheng.
Chen Yunsheng silently closed the door behind him.
By then, Ji Fanyin had already finished signing all of the autographs and had started browsing through the available flavors. It took her a while to decide what she wanted.
After the two of them received their ice cream and were just about to leave, one of the bolder employees suddenly asked, “Are the two of you dating?”
Ji Fanyin was taking a bite off her ice cream when she heard the question, so she looked at Chen Yunsheng. Chen Yunsheng thought that this was a gesture for him to answer the question on her behalf, so he reined in her smile and solemnly clarified, “We aren’t dating. We only came here to have ice cream together.”
The employee who asked the question revealed an indescribable expression. If someone took a video of him right now and made it into a GIF, it would be labeled ‘do-i-look-dumb-to-you.jpg’.
Chen Yunsheng answered this question with the intention to not trouble Ji Fanyin, but he wasn’t certain if this was the right answer. Thus, he lowered his head to study her response, only to see that she had stopped eating her ice cream altogether.
She had raised her head and was staring at him intently. The smile that had been lingering on her lips vanished without a trace.
For a moment there, Chen Yunsheng thought that her impassive expression was a sign of anger.
However, Ji Fanyin soon shrugged and said, “It’s as he said.”
Then, she took a big chomp out of her triple scoop of ice cream.
