"Mo, Mo, Mo … Mo Yunze." Ling Ye felt that she had never been so nervous before. Even when she failed her exams, she would not be so nervous that she stuttered. But now, looking at Mo Yunze's enlarged face, the faint smile at the corner of his mouth, the never-ending spirit in his peach blossom eyes, the strong and sturdy arms, and that embarrassing temperature … all of these made her heart beat faster and her brain lack oxygen. She was so shy that she wanted to dive into the water and never show her head again.
"What a coincidence." Mo Yunze slowly restrained the spirit in his eyes. With a calm expression, he held her waist with one hand and held the railing of the water slide with the other. This area was two meters deep, and the tips of his feet could not reach the bottom of the pool. When he held Ling Ye, this was the only way he could maintain his balance.
But he could still do such a strenuous action so smoothly and elegantly, as if he was standing on flat ground. The hand that held Ling Ye was steady and tight, so she did not feel uneasy in this aspect at all.
Lü Shijia watched the two of them being so close to each other, and her mouth almost formed an 'O' shape. She had always liked Mo Yunze very much and was his loyal "fangirl". Logically speaking, when her good friend and Mo Yunze formed such an "intense" scene, she should be envious, jealous, and hateful at this moment.
But the strange thing was, Lü Shijia felt a strange blood rush to her head in an instant. The gossipy factor in her body and the maiden's heart instantly ignited, making her even more excited than when her waist was being hugged.
Because the scene in front of her was really too harmonious.
Ling Ye's petite figure just happened to be hugging a certain prodigy's neck. The two of them had similar skin color, and their faces were both handsome and beautiful. One was number one and the other was number two in academics. This had been the case all year round, and it had never changed since they entered the first year of high school.
Not only that, the height difference between the two of them was simply the most adorable height difference … This time, when they came to play, Ling Ye was coincidentally able to land next to him from the slide. This was simply a heaven-sent fate.
At this moment, Lü Shijia turned from Mo Yunze's fangirl to Ling Ye and Mo Yunze's CP fan.
Looking at the two of them hugging each other, the cousin's tender face slowly turned red. She nudged Lü Shijia with her elbow and asked, "This boy is so handsome. Do you know him?"
Lü Shijia nodded vigorously and then covered her mouth, despising her for ruining the atmosphere.
Being hugged, Ling Ye's petite hands couldn't help but shift from wrapping around his neck to pushing against his chest. Her voice was soft and had a tinge of shyness as she whispered in his ear, "Put me down …"
Mo Yunze could clearly hear her heartbeat and panting. What he cared about the most was that pair of small, soft hands. That almost negligible force was pushing against his chest. The warm and soft touch pressed against his skin, making his heart race. It was as if a feather was gently tickling his heart, making it itch unbearably.
This was the first time he had such a feeling for someone. This feeling was very unfamiliar, but it was like poison. It made him yearn for more after having tasted it, and his calm mind was in turmoil.
Her soft voice didn't make him let go. Instead, it made him hug her even tighter.
"Don't move. This is the deep end." Mo Yunze's originally cold and indifferent voice became a little gentle and a little repressed. Ling Ye was a little embarrassed to hear that. She was clearly a burden and was troubling someone else, but she was thinking about other things. It was really too embarrassing, so she quickly held onto his shoulder obediently and didn't dare to move.
"Can you swim?" Looking at her pink earlobes, Mo Yunze's heart softened, but he pretended to be calm.
"A little, but …" Ling Ye looked at the opposite shore, which was about five meters away. "I might not be able to swim across."
"It's okay. I'm here," Mo Yunze said.
"En …" Ling Ye nodded. When she heard the words "I'm here," her heartbeat was a little strange and disordered.
Ling Ye bravely swam. Mo Yunze swam in front of her. When he saw that she was about to sink, he would pull her in time or use his warm palm to support her lower abdomen, so that she could float up and continue to move forward. Under his guidance, she quickly reached the shore and gasped for air.
Lü Shijia and her cousin looked at the two of them from the side without saying a word. They only felt that the interaction between the two of them was quite pleasing to the eye. The two of them seemed to have a natural sense of tacit understanding, just like in a certain advertisement — as smooth as silk?
After Ling Ye came ashore, she thanked him profusely. Mo Yunze, however, did not say anything. After glancing at her swimsuit, he turned his head and took a huge bath towel from the side, wrapping her whole body up like a rice dumpling.
Ling Ye blushed as she was wrapped up by him. She stood there barefooted obediently, looking down at her nose and heart. She was so embarrassed that she did not know what to say.
She felt that she would never have the face to see him again.
There was a sound of footsteps behind him. Mo Yunze looked up and saw that it was the group of young men from just now. There were about five or six of them, and they looked unhappy. One of them pointed at Mo Yunze and scolded, "Who are you? Get away from us. We saw this chick first."
"…" Mo Yunze raised his eyebrows slightly. His eyes were calm, and his beautiful peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, looking dignified without being angry.
However, Ling Ye hurriedly stood in front of Mo Yunze and looked up at them. She said righteously, "Who's a chick? I don't know you at all. Please go away."
Mo Yunze was slightly startled. Although he felt that it was a little funny, there were some other emotions surging in his chest.
Who would have thought that this little fellow would be so daring at times?
"Yo, little girl, you have quite a character." Those people looked at Ling Ye's pretense of calmness, and they all laughed. Mo Yunze grabbed her arm and shielded her behind him. He said coldly, "Stop harassing her. If you have anything to say, come at me."
Seeing the situation on the shore, Lü Shijia and her cousin hurriedly climbed out of the water and rushed forward, pulling Ling Ye, who was about to go forward, behind them.
"Are you crazy?" Her cousin grabbed her hand. "Aren't there guys around? Look at your small frame. If they kick you into the water, you'll be kicked into the water. "
"No, you don't understand …" Ling Ye watched anxiously as they confronted each other. She wanted to go forward to stop them, but her arm was grabbed by Lü Shijia again.
"Mo Yunze is a guy after all. Don't show off." Lü Shijia usually looked unreliable, but when faced with such a situation, she knew how to choose the safest option. However, the more she tried to persuade him, the more anxious Ling Ye became.
Mo Yunze retreated slowly. The group of people rubbed their fists and palms and had already forced him to the dark entrance of the changing room.
"No, he looks very powerful, but he's actually very weak. One look and I can tell that these people are not good people. They'll hurt him. I have to think of a way." Ling Ye watched as Mo Yunze was forced to retreat expressionlessly. She was so anxious that her palms began to sweat. She draped a towel over herself and ran outside to look for the security guards to call for backup.
Mo Yunze heard Ling Ye's words clearly.
His eyelashes fluttered and he sighed helplessly.
Forget it. Since there was such a misunderstanding, he would maintain the status quo. He would let her know that what he had done might not be a good thing …
After Mo Yunze thought it through, he turned around and ran into the depths of the men's changing room. When they saw that he was about to escape, they chased after him fiercely. But when they chased him to the depths, they found that although this young man looked the same as before, he seemed to be a different person. He had a strong aura and his eyes were cold.
At first, he looked easy to bully, but now he was gone. The gentle peach blossom eyes he had when he looked at the little girl just now were now full of hostility and murderous intent. It made people want to avoid him and involuntarily feel afraid.
"You … what are you pretending to be!" Someone rushed up and pointed at his nose and scolded. Mo Yunze's eyes narrowed and he quickly and decisively made a move. They only heard the man let out a scream and was suddenly thrown over his shoulder to the ground. There was a subtle crisp sound of the body's joints. The man's face was green and yellow in pain — his hand was dislocated.
"Damn, you dare to hit my brother. You must be tired of living. Let's go together and teach him a lesson —" Before the word "teach" could be finished, Mo Yunze's fist had quickly swung. The others saw that the situation was not good and swarmed up, wanting to gang up on Mo Yunze. But they didn't expect that Mo Yunze's movement was so fast. His seemingly thin body was full of explosive power. Before they started fighting, they were already lying on the ground.
Mo Yunze exhaled and clenched his fist. He felt that a lot of the turbid air in his heart had been released.
"If someone asks, what will you say?" He squatted down and grabbed the leader's hair. His voice was cold.
"We fell by ourselves … Ouch …"
The other people in the changing room had already run away when they heard the noise. Mo Yunze was quite satisfied with his answer. He put on his clothes unhurriedly and left directly from the back door.
Not long after he left, the few people who were wailing on the ground heard Ling Ye's anxious voice.
"Please, Uncle Security. Hurry up and take a look inside. My classmate is inside. He's very thin and weak. If you're any slower, he'll probably be crippled by them."
When the people inside heard this, their wailing became even louder.
After the security guard went in, he was also frightened. When he came out, he told Ling Ye about the situation inside and told her not to worry. The boy she was talking about was not inside.
"Not inside?" Ling Ye frowned. "How could it be …"
"Did he run away?" The cousin said casually, "This kind of handsome boy likes to act cool, but he's actually more cowardly than anyone else. Sis, you must not believe him."
When Ling Ye heard the wailing inside, she was deep in thought.
The few of them changed and went home. Ling Ye was still a little uneasy. She found the phone number that Mo Yunze had left for her and mustered her courage to call it. However, a cold girl's voice came through. "The number you have dialed has been disconnected."
Disconnected? Ling Ye pursed her lips, feeling that something was not quite right.
Summer vacation always passed quickly, and City No.1's summer vacation passed even faster. Compared to other schools, City No.1 not only paid close attention to their studies, but they also paid close attention to their vacation time. It had only been a month since the summer vacation, and they had already announced the start of summer cram school.
Although it was called a cram school, the schedule of the cram school was basically the same as usual, and it was almost the same as the beginning of school. Ling Ye did not have any nostalgia for the holidays. Instead, she felt that staying at home was even more boring.
On the first day of school, Ling Ye returned to the original classroom of Class One, but the classroom was empty. Only then did she realize that she was already in her second year of high school.
She hurriedly ran to her new classroom. It was a teaching building that had been newly built in recent years, and it was filled with students in the second year of high school. She walked into the classroom, panting, but found that her classmates had already taken their seats.
"Sorry, teacher, I'm late." Ling Ye's face was slightly red. She did not know whether it was because of shyness or because of the jogging.
"It's okay. Come in. The seats have been rearranged. You can sit here." Ling Ye was assigned to the best class, and Mr. Cao was the homeroom teacher. She looked in the direction that Mr. Cao was pointing. Her seat was in the front row of the classroom, and it was the best seat for class.
The seats were obviously arranged according to grades, because there were taller boys sitting in the front.
