"What do you want to eat?" 0
"Um, a little pudding!" Lin Menghan thought for a moment and remembered her favorite ice cream, her eyes sparkling with excitement. 0
"Alright." 0
Xu Nancheng then ran towards a nearby convenience store. 0
Lin Menghan sat there, watching the passersby in the town and the scenery of the mountains in the distance. 0
Suddenly, she felt a chill on her face and instinctively flinched, letting out a little squeal. 0
Turning around, she saw Xu Nancheng had returned, holding an ice cream cone and pressing it against her face. 0
"Nancheng, that's so unfair! Where did you learn this?" Lin Menghan playfully swatted at Xu Nancheng, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment. 0
"I came up with it myself." He wasn't lying; he usually didn't watch TV or read novels, so this action was purely his own creation. 0
It was just a spontaneous idea to see how she would react. 0
When someone develops feelings for another person, they might unconsciously try to change themselves to overcome their shortcomings and align their behavior with that of the other person. 0
At the same time, they would also tease the other person to attract their attention. 0
Xu Nancheng was doing just that, though he hadn't realized it yet. 0
"Alright, alright! Eat up! It'll melt soon," he said as he handed her the ice cream. 0
He had bought two cones, one for each of them. 0
The little pudding was cheap, just one yuan each, providing a refreshing treat on a summer day along with that sweet sensation that warmed the heart. 0
Unlike those trendy ice creams that cost dozens of yuan each and lost the essence of what ice cream should be. 0
"Is it good?" 0
"Delicious!" Lin Menghan smiled brightly, her face glowing with joy. 0
Actually, my favorite is also little pudding; the texture is great and it's really sweet! 0
"Yes! I love that sweet feeling too! It’s so comforting." 0
"Oh! By the way, Nancheng, do you feel like chatting with me is easier now?" She looked at Xu Nancheng curiously. 0
"Now that you mention it, it does seem that way." Xu Nancheng gazed up at the clear sky. 0
 
 
Talking to others requires courage. If you are afraid to speak with others, it means you lack enough bravery. The more you talk, the more accustomed you will become! 0
 
I didn't expect you to adapt so quickly! But just because you're not stuttering as much doesn't mean there's not a long way to go! You need to muster the courage to communicate with others, Lin Menghan explained to Xu Nancheng. 0
 
It's mainly because very few people talk to me, but you just scared me to death! I thought... 0
 
Xu Nancheng felt a wave of frustration; she could stir up trouble and then say these things afterward. 0
 
What did you think? Lin Menghan feigned innocence, tilting her head and glancing around. 0
 
I thought you wouldn't talk to me again. 0
 
How could that be! Lin Menghan playfully slapped Xu Nancheng. 0
 
By the way, have we met before? Why are you so familiar with me? Xu Nancheng felt the atmosphere was right and decided to ask a question that had been on his mind since last night. 0
 
Maybe you'll find out later! Or guess! If you get it right, I'll tell you! Lin Menghan made a shushing gesture. 0
 
What’s that about? I’ve shared my heartfelt thoughts with you! Xu Nancheng clearly wasn't satisfied with her answer. 0
 
You have the nerve to say that? How cheesy! I never expected you would say those things; I was planning on... 0
 
Lin Menghan shivered as Xu Nancheng suddenly lunged for her side. 0
 
Nancheng! You've turned bad all of a sudden! Lin Menghan looked at him with a hint of reproach. 0
 
She seriously suspected that Xu Nancheng had been pretending to be innocent, but that seemed impossible; after all, who could act so convincingly? 0
 
Xu Nancheng was still grinning mischievously. Who do you think you are? 0
 
Suddenly, Lin Menghan retaliated by poking Xu Nancheng in the side. 0
 
He shuddered and hugged himself in surrender. Lin Menghan! I’m sorry, I’m sorry! 0
 
Beg me! Then I'll let you go! 0
 
Lin Menghan was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt that had become damp from sweat, clinging tightly to her skin. 0
 
Hearing this, Xu Nancheng turned to look at Lin Menghan, his gaze inadvertently drifting down to her shirt. 0
 
Just one glance, and he couldn't tear his eyes away. He swallowed hard, his words stuck in his throat. 0
 
What? Lin Menghan still hadn't realized the gravity of the situation and looked sideways. 0
 
She noticed something off about Xu Nancheng's gaze and followed it downwards. 0
 
 
She suddenly realized it and shouted, "You pervert! You creep!" She tightly hugged herself and hurriedly ran away. 0
 
Xu Nancheng knew why she was cursing at him and quickly chased after her to explain. 0
 
"No! To him, it was just a flimsy excuse. Lin Menghan! It's not like that, I didn't look!" 0
 
"You admitted it! And yet you still say you didn't!" 0
 
The two of them ran together, she sprinting ahead while he pursued her, playfully teasing each other. They looked just like a pair of young lovers in the throes of romance. 0
 
Their antics caught the attention of a few passersby who paused to watch. 0
 
Before they knew it, panting heavily, they arrived in front of a family courtyard. 0
