Starting Check-in Reward: Tomson Riviera Chapter 132 - 131: Weak, Pitiful, and Helpless

Ning Ruoxi also started to feel that she was being a bit harsh. Seeing the ’aggrieved’ look on Ye Ling’s face, her heart instantly softened.

"This... so we’re really just going to cuddle and sleep?"

"Deal!"

Ye Ling replied without the slightest hesitation, and the ’aggrieved’ look on his face vanished in an instant.

"Why do I get the feeling I’ve been played?"

Ning Ruoxi narrowed her eyes, shooting Ye Ling a glare.

"Alright, alright, I’m so sleepy. Ti for bed~"

Ye Ling played dumb, switching off the light before pulling Ning Ruoxi into his arms and snuggling under the covers.

"You’re such a rascal! Hmph! ╯^╰"

As Ye Ling pulled her under the covers, Ning Ruoxi let out a soft huff.

But the mont Ye Ling turned off the light, a faint smile graced her lips.

’I have to admit, this darn guy is actually pretty cute when he acts like a rascal! And for so reason, I totally fall for it.’

That night, Ye Ling really did just hold Ning Ruoxi and sleep, doing nothing more.

Although Ye Ling was fairly certain that Ning Ruoxi wouldn’t resist if he tried to make a move. Their relationship had long since reached that stage.

It was just that he hadn’t yet received Ning Tianliang’s approval, and besides, he had made a promise to his father-in-law-to-be. So, naturally, he couldn’t just devour the young lady right now.

He was willing to wait—to wait until Ning Ruoxi’s family fully accepted him. He would give Ning Ruoxi a magnificent wedding, and only then would he make this girl completely his.

Because he was certain of their future, he wasn’t anxious about the here and now.

At first, Ning Ruoxi was indeed a little afraid that Ye Ling might try sothing. However, the guy quickly fell into a deep sleep, allowing her to relax completely.

She shifted in his embrace, adjusted her position, pulled his arm over herself, and closed her eyes in satisfaction.

That night, she had the sweetest dream. She dreamt she was a Disney princess. As fireworks lit up the night sky, Ye Ling knelt on one knee and proposed to her...

...

The next morning, when Ning Ruoxi woke up, she subconsciously reached out to feel Ye Ling’s side of the bed, only to find it empty.

"Stinker!"

A jolt of alarm shot through Ning Ruoxi, and she was instantly wide awake.

"You’re awake?"

Just then, Ye Ling pushed the door open and walked in. He was holding a ceramic bowl filled with white porridge that gave off a captivating aroma. "Now that you’re awake, co have so porridge."

"Did you get up early just to make this porridge?"

"I did."

Ye Ling smiled faintly and sat down on the edge of the bed. He picked up a small spoon, scooped up so porridge, and blew on it gently. Then, he tested the temperature with his own lips before, confident it was just right, bringing the spoon to Ning Ruoxi’s mouth.

"Your Highness, your porridge is served."

A faint smile played on Ye Ling’s lips.

Seeing this, Ning Ruoxi’s heart filled with sweetness. She took the entire spoonful in one go, a comforting warmth instantly spreading through her stomach.

It was only plain white porridge, but it was incredibly fragrant and sweet. For so reason, Ning Ruoxi felt it was the most delicious porridge she had ever tasted in her life.

"Stinker, you’re the best."

Ning Ruoxi gazed at Ye Ling, her eyes sparkling like little stars.

"Silly girl."

Ye Ling smiled back and continued to feed his little darling.

The bowl of porridge was finished in no ti. Like a little kitten, Ning Ruoxi licked the corner of her mouth, not quite fully satisfied!

"Want more?"

Ye Ling asked with a faint smile.

"Mmm, I can’t eat another bite..."

Ning Ruoxi said, shaking her head as she patted her flat tummy.

Even though she did want more, she had already eaten far more porridge than she usually did for breakfast.

"Then you’d better get up. We still have to go to the amusent park today."

Ye Ling said with a small smile as he stood up.

At a little after nine, Ye Ling and Ning Ruoxi headed out.

The weather was beautiful, and since it had rained the previous night, the air was exceptionally fresh.

"Ruoruo, want to ride the carousel?"

Ye Ling asked, suddenly turning his head as he held Ning Ruoxi’s hand.

"No way, carousels are too boring."

Ning Ruoxi shook her head, then said with a burst of excitent, "Hey, how about we go on the roller coaster!?"

"The roller coaster?"

Ye Ling imdiately raised an eyebrow.

Clearly, he hadn’t expected her to pick sothing so intense right off the bat.

"I want to go on it."

Ning Ruoxi said, pouting her lips.

In truth, given her usual courage, she would never have dared to go on such a thrilling ride. That was why, despite having been to the amusent park many tis, she had never once been on a roller coaster.

But with Ye Ling by her side today... she was determined to challenge herself!

"Alright then."

Ye Ling nodded. Since she had insisted, he couldn’t very well refuse.

Although the park was crowded, they had arrived at just the right ti. They didn’t have to wait in line for long before it was their turn.

"Scared?"

Ye Ling asked, turning to look at Ning Ruoxi, the corner of his mouth twitching into a smirk.

At that mont, Ning Ruoxi was staring at the tracks weaving through the sky high above and had subconsciously taken a step back.

’Alright, fine. She had to admit, she was being a little chicken.’

"I-I’m not scared!"

But, as if to prove her point, Ning Ruoxi gave a small huff and sat down next to Ye Ling.

"You can grab onto if you get scared, you know,"

Ye Ling prompted with a smile.

"Hmph, you think I’d be scared?"

Ning Ruoxi shot Ye Ling a disdainful glance.

However...

What happened next...

Monts after the ride started, Ning Ruoxi began to panic. Especially as they went through a huge turn, she found she could barely keep her eyes open.

"Ye Ling..."

Ning Ruoxi subconsciously grabbed onto Ye Ling, her eyes filled with a pitiful look of distress.

Small, pitiful, and helpless!

She never imagined a roller coaster could be this terrifying. If she’d known, she would have rather died than get on this thing!

"There, there, it’s okay."

Ye Ling smiled faintly, reached his arm around her, and pulled her into an embrace.

He wasn’t like one of those clueless guys who would choose that mont to tease her by saying, "But I thought you said you weren’t scared?"

Had he said sothing like that, well, he would have deserved to be single forever.

"There, there. It’s okay, I’m here. You don’t have to be scared..."

Ye Ling comforted her in a soft voice, holding her close.

The seats they were in were special "love seats," and it seed they had been thoughtfully designed. The seats were slightly modified, allowing two people to hold each other tightly without any safety concerns.

And so, Ning Ruoxi spent the rest of the ride practically buried in Ye Ling’s embrace, her eyes squeezed shut, not daring to open them in the slightest.

Seeing Ning Ruoxi curled up in his arms like a little bunny, Ye Ling couldn’t help but smile.

’He suddenly thought that the ride this girl had chosen wasn’t half bad...’
