I Only Lived For Three Chapters In A Campus Romance Novel!
Chapter 68
At the theme park on weekends, there was always a long line in front of the interesting attractions.
Lin Shen was dragged by Mo Juechen for some distance. His face was so hot that it was about to burn.
Although both of them were wearing hats, the brims of their hats were pulled down.
City S was also very big. It was actually very difficult to meet people they knew walking around like this.
When they passed by a moving ice cream cart, Mo Juechen turned to him and asked, "Do you want to eat?"
"Okay, okay." Lin Shen looked around guiltily.
He didn't dare to meet Mo Juechen's eyes at all. "I'll buy it."
As he spoke, he took the opportunity to pull his hand out.
Mo Juechen curved his lips.
Lin Shen quickly came back with two ice creams and gave him one.
Then he seemed to be relieved and quickened his pace. "The line in front is very long. Let's hurry up and line up."
He was afraid that Mo Juechen would ask to hold hands again, so he simply held the ice cream and jogged all the way to the end of the line and lined up.
Mo Juechen wasn't in a hurry.
He had one hand in his pocket and the other hand holding the ice cream.
As he ate, he slowly walked towards Lin Shen.
In the end, he stood beside him.
Lin Shen saw that his left hand was still in his pocket and didn't seem to have any intention of pulling it out.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
His ice cream had already begun to melt.
In this theme park, even the ice cream was made into a cute animated character.
Lin Shen stared at it for a while before reluctantly biting the ice cream's ear.
Mo Juechen saw this and chuckled. "If you like it, you can buy it after eating."
"It's not good to eat too much ice cream." Lin Shen said seriously.
He didn't like sweets, but in this place, he should do as the Romans do.
Except for ice cream, he wanted to try everything else.
"Don't talk nonsense. Hurry up and eat." Lin Shen said, "It won't be good if it melts and rubs onto other people."
"Tsk." Mo Juechen finished the ice cream in a few bites.
He and Lin Shen followed the line and slowly moved forward.
This kind of thing that he usually hated to do the most didn't seem to be so annoying today.
Especially after seeing Lin Shen finish his ice cream in a few mouthfuls, he stood beside him and looked forward from time to time. His delicate face was filled with a rare look of anticipation.
"If you're too lazy to queue, I can …"
"No need!" Before Mo Juechen could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Lin Shen.
He waved his hand repeatedly.
In fact, he was already past the age where he would really be excited just because he came to the theme park for a day.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry.
Mo Juechen shrugged.
His gaze drifted to the front before finally landing on Lin Shen.
"If you want to come so badly, why not?" Mo Juechen suddenly asked.
"It's boring to do it alone," Lin Shen said casually.
His words clearly pleased Mo Juechen.
The two of them continued to slowly move forward along the line. The last trace of impatience on Mo Juechen's face completely disappeared.
They chatted casually, just like the most ordinary high school students.
They waited in line for half an hour and then played for a few minutes.
But the two of them had a lot of fun.
In the morning, the two of them were lined up for two events.
During lunch, Lin Shen insisted that he should be the one to treat.
He specially chose a restaurant in the theme park that sold desserts and bought a small cake for Mo Juechen.
Lin Shen pushed the plate with the cake in front of Mo Juechen and urged him, "Make a wish."
The cake was small and didn't even have candles.
It was just the two of them.
Lin Shen thought that this was probably the simplest birthday that Mo Juechen had ever had.
He secretly looked up at him.
In his imagination, as the only son of the Mo Family, the school hunk.
Every year on his birthday, there would definitely be a grand banquet.
There would be a gorgeous cake that might be taller than everyone.
There would be toasting and drinking.
There would be no need to sit with him in a noisy theme park full of children.
He would make a wish on a small cake the size of a palm.
Lin Shen pursed his lips, feeling a little guilty.
Mo Jue Cheng, however, took advantage of his guilty conscience and closed his eyes ceremoniously.
He was facing the cake. After a while, he opened his eyes.
"Uh …" Lin Shen continued to feel guilty, "I'm sorry, I asked the restaurant, they can't provide candles."
"Without candles, will the wish not come true?" Mo Juechen suddenly asked.
"Of course not," Lin Shen quickly said.
Because whether or not he was pulled to make a wish, it wouldn't come true.
He muttered in his heart, but said, "If you're sincere, the wish will come true."
Mo Juechen glanced at Shenshen.
There were no candles, but the restaurant provided knives.
He divided the small cake into two portions and handed one half to Lin Shen.
Although it was a little shabby, at least it was a birthday with a cake.
After lunch, the two of them continued to line up.
For the rest of the day, they continued to play in the theme park.
There were all kinds of entertainment facilities, animations, plays, concerts, floats …
From day to night, when the lights were turned on, they only managed to play more than half of the theme park's facilities.
At night, some of the attractions that were especially crowded during the day were finally not so crowded.
The two of them finally boarded the "pirate ship".
Lin Shen and Mo Juechen sat side by side in the last row.
It was already night time, and there were fewer people in the theme park.
No one else came up to their row.
The staff helped everyone put down the safety buckles, and the pirate ship slowly moved.
"Ahhhh!" When the stern of the ship swung to the highest position and dived down again.
The whole ship was filled with screams.
Lin Shen's lips curved.
He was actually not afraid, but he also screamed a few times because it was fun.
"Hey!" In the noisy screams, Mo Juechen moved closer to him.
He seemed to be talking to Lin Shen, but the waves of screams made him unable to hear anything.
"What did you say?" Lin Shen asked loudly.
"I said …" Mo Juechen moved closer to him.
At the stern of the pirate ship that swung higher and higher, in the midst of the crazy and happy screams of countless strangers.
Mo Juechen moved closer to Lin Shen's ear.
When he spoke, his hot breath blew on Lin Shen's earlobe.
"Do you want to know the birthday wish I just made?" Mo Juechen moved closer to his ear and asked.
"What?" Lin Shen asked loudly.
He did not turn his head.
They took advantage of the ambiguous position they were in now.
He heard Mo Juechen speak again. "You …"
He did not say what his wish was.
Would a birthday wish made on a cake without candles not come true?
Mo Juechen did not know.
He did not want to know either.
He blew into Lin Shen's ear.
Compared to making wishes, he preferred to reach out and grab what he wanted.
Just like how he learned to cook and bake.
Just like how he learned to play the drums and guitar.
Just like how he did all those absurd and unruly things over the years.
"Do you want to date me?" Mo Juechen asked.
In that moment, Lin Shen only felt that the screams on the pirate ship seemed to have completely left him.
His world seemed to have been sucked into a vacuum by Mo Juechen's words.
All the sounds.
All the colors and people were leaving him.
Only that sentence kept echoing in his ears.
"Date … date?!" Lin Shen did not know how long it took before he came back to his senses.
He stuttered and repeated it.
His voice was very soft, and he did not know if Mo Juechen heard him.
They had even kissed more than once.
But now that he suddenly heard him say this, Lin Shen still felt his mind go blank.
"I never thought …" he stammered.
The people on the pirate ship were still screaming and laughing.
Lin Shen sat at the back of the ship in a daze just like that.
He had a hard time digesting this new and unfamiliar word.
Dating …
He subconsciously licked his dry lips.
Mo Jue Cheng cursed in a low voice beside her ear.
The next second, his left hand, which was tightly gripping the safety railing, was grabbed by the other party's hand.
Mo Juechen's fingers were long and slender, almost completely wrapped around Lin Shen's hand.
Lin Shen subconsciously looked at his movement.
The other party's bronze skin was a stark contrast to his otaku skin.
Before he could figure out the problem.
The pirate ship was already moving lower and lower.
The screams gradually faded.
Finally, it slowly stopped.
Mo Juechen let go of Lin Shen's hand.
He stood up first and walked down with the crowd.
After walking a few meters, Mo Juechen turned back to look at Lin Shen, who was still sitting there in a daze, not moving for a long time.
"Hey!" Mo Juechen turned back.
He leaned over, his arm still holding tightly onto the safety railing that was still protecting Lin Shen's shoulder.
Mo Juechen looked into Lin Shen's eyes and raised his eyebrows. "It's time to go down."
"Oh, oh, oh." Lin Shen came back to his senses.
Mo Juechen pulled up the railing for him and left the pirate ship side by side with him.
In fact, there were still some rides that they had not played, but it seemed that neither of them was in the mood.
The two of them were silent like that, going against the direction of the crowd, walking towards a quieter corner of the theme park.
The street lights were shining brightly.
Not far behind them, people were gradually moving in the same direction.
Lin Shen knew that there would be night lights in a while.
But he was not in the mood to look.
His hand was hanging by his side.
Mo Juechen also walked silently beside him.
If at this time, Mo Juechen held his hand again, he probably would not break away.
Lin Shen thought to himself somewhat self-deprecatingly.
He knew his own personality.
He was overcautious and did not know how to refuse. Most of the time, he was used to pleasing others.
He was very unpleasant.
For example, when Mo Juechen kissed him.
This kind of ambiguous thing happened more than once.
Every time after the incident, Lin Shen would act as if nothing had happened and continue to interact with the other party as if they were friends.
At first, he could still deceive himself.
If he wanted to go back to his original world, he could not offend Mo Juechen!
He had to be by his side to have a chance.
Later, even when Lin Shen could no longer continue, he used this excuse to comfort himself.
But he could still act as if nothing had happened and quickly switch to friend mode after every kiss.
And then continue to be friends with Mo Juechen calmly.
Why was this so?
Lin Shen looked ahead.
Even with the street lights, it looked a little dark in front.
Why …
Lin Shen pursed his lips.
He was actually very clear in his heart.
In the past, he did not have many friends by his side.
Now, with Mo Juechen, Tao Ran, Xu Chen and the others, it was easy and pleasant to get along with.
Lin Shen really liked them.
The only time he had the courage to say to Mo Juechen that he did not like him was when he treated him that way.
It was even under the other party's encouragement that he did it.
After that, Mo Juechen was angry for half a day and took the initiative to be friendly again.
Lin Shen took the opportunity to make up with him and continued to be friends with him at a distance that was neither too close nor too far.
He even did not mind the other party kissing and hugging from time to time.
Lin Shen could not help but laugh at himself.
Even he himself felt that his personality was exceptionally unlikable. How could someone like Mo Juechen, who had so many fangirls …
Lin Shen thought of this and could not help but turn to look at the other party quietly.
The street lights were very dim, and the light and shadow outlined Mo Juechen's perfect side profile.
Lin Shen could not see the light in the other party's eyes clearly. He could only see the other party's tense jaw.
What should he do?
He was very nervous.
He could still get away with it before, but this time the other party was so direct.
If he refused, would they really not be able to be friends in the future?
If he did not reject him, dating …
This word, which was really strange to Lin Shen, jumped out again.
If they were dating, what should they do?
He could not help but purse his dry lips again.
The hand hanging by his side moved slightly, as if it had accidentally brushed Mo Juechen's hand.
Their warm skin touched.
They had clearly held hands just now, but Mo Juechen pulled his hand back in an exaggerated manner.
Lin Shen: "…"
He looked at Mo Juechen in disbelief.
The other party also turned to look at him.
Mo Juechen's eyes flashed slightly. His thin lips opened and closed.
But he did not say anything.
Uh …
Lin Shen was surprised.
Was Mo Juechen nervous?
So Mo Juechen could be nervous too?
When this thought popped up in his mind, it seemed that even his own confusion and nervousness had faded a lot.
"Have you thought about it?" Mo Juechen felt even more uncomfortable under Lin Shen's gaze.
He frowned.
His originally handsome eyebrows were almost twisted into a ball.
When he spoke, his tone was also very fierce. "Do you agree or not? Give me a definite answer!"
Mo Juechen glared fiercely at Lin Shen.
Lin Shen: "…"
"If I reject you, will you hit me?" He could not help but mumble.
Mo Juechen's fierce gaze disappeared.
He seemed to be stunned.
Then he suddenly turned his head and did not look at Lin Shen anymore.
Under the night sky, the streetlights elongated his shadow.
Mo Juechen's hands hanging by his side clenched tightly.
His chest rose and fell heavily. After a while, he slowly calmed down.
His tightly clenched fists slowly loosened.
Mo Juechen still did not look back at Lin Shen. When he spoke again, his voice was a little hoarse. "No."
He said hoarsely.
"Mm …" Lin Shen nodded.
"Then I agree."
He said.
