Make Her Heart Flutter - Chapter 54

Chi Shuang tilted her head slightly, curling her lips into a provocative smile. “Who’s scared? Just don’t end up crying for your mom later.”

Jiang Qi chuckled lightly. “Don’t worry. Even if I cry, I won’t call for my mom, I’ll only call for you.”

“Are you ready?” the staff member asked, then brought over another rope to tie the two of them tightly together.

In tandem bungee jumping, if each person is tied separately, they might collide. Only by being bound together and holding each other closely can accidents at high altitudes be avoided.

Unless, of course, the rope breaks.

After securing them, the staff member looked at their posture and sighed. “Just hug for a bit. It’s not like you don’t know each other.”

Jiang Qi blinked calmly. “Can we hug?”

Chi Shuang poked Jiang Qi’s slender waist where the camera couldn’t see but didn’t respond.

Seeing Chi Shuang’s silence, Jiang Qi chuckled softly. “If you don’t say anything, I’ll take it as a yes.”

Chi Shuang took a deep breath and wrapped her arms around Jiang Qi’s waist. “So talkative!”

Jiang Qi also held her by the shoulders, a carefree, youthful smile spreading across her face.

“Ready?” Jiang Qi asked.

Buried in Jiang Qi’s embrace, Chi Shuang nodded and mumbled, “Mm.”

Even if it were a true abyss ahead, as long as she was holding the one she loved, she wouldn’t be afraid in the slightest.

Jiang Qi held Chi Shuang and leaped downward, light as a bird.

“Wow!”

Shang Chumu, who was watching from the side, couldn’t hold back an exclamation.

Jiang Ran squinted, shielding her eyes with her hand. “I really want to try bungee jumping too!”

Yan Xu squinted as well, her smile growing increasingly gentle. Tang Qiluo, unnerved by the smile, couldn’t help but say, “Yanyan, why do you smile like a kindly old mother?”

Old mother? Jiang Ran glanced over and flashed a smile at Yan Xu.

Ah, confirmed with a look, they were both fans of the Jiang-Chi pairing.

As they leaped, Chi Shuang nestled in Jiang Qi’s arms, feeling none of the fear she had anticipated. Instead… warmth and reassurance spread through her heart.

After the initial weightlessness came a thrilling, exhilarating rush. She looked up at Jiang Qi, who had her eyes tightly shut.

Good… Chi Shuang breathed an inward sigh of relief. Jiang Qi wasn’t that scared either.

Just as she relaxed, Chi Shuang felt the arms holding her tighten, followed by Jiang Qi’s screams: “Ah…ahhh!!!”

The rope bounced a few times after reaching the bottom, and Jiang Qi’s cries rose and fell rhythmically with each bounce.

Chi Shuang sighed helplessly and held Jiang Qi even tighter, gently patting her back to soothe her. “Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid…”

Once the rope stopped bouncing, Jiang Qi rested her forehead on Chi Shuang’s shoulder and retorted stubbornly, “I wasn’t scared at all!”

“Alright, you weren’t scared.” Chi Shuang didn’t argue with her. It was rare to see her acting so tsundere, of course, she had to indulge her.

Even after they were pulled back up and the staff began untying the ropes, the two of them were still holding each other.

“Ahem, you can let go now,” the staff member said, holding the rope and reminding them awkwardly.

Only then did Jiang Qi belatedly release her hold, flashing a grin and raising an eyebrow at Chi Shuang.

“Flirt!” Chi Shuang scolded with a laugh, though her eyes still held nothing but indulgence.

On the way back, Chi Shuang fell asleep immediately due to motion sickness. Jiang Qi aimlessly scrolled through her phone and stumbled upon the Weibo posts of the girls who had visited them earlier that day.

@Rose Boy: Wow, I saw the real Jiang Qi and Chi Shuang at an amusement park in Jiangcheng today! So, touched! They’re absolutely stunning and so gentle. And, hehehe, just between us, they look really good together!

Below were nine photos of Chi Shuang and Jiang Qi in a grid layout.

Jiang Qi smirked. These girls had secretly taken several photos even before approaching them.

There were pictures of Chi Shuang adjusting her clothes and others of her handing candy to Chi Shuang. In short, they were just sweet!

After flipping through a few photos, Jiang Qi suddenly realized that she was starting to find them pleasing to the eye.

Even with her face covered in dark foundation, she still looked quite attractive. Tsk, it’s true, pretty people look good no matter what.

Jiang Qi shamelessly thought to herself.

Maybe I should try getting a tan? That might not be a bad idea. I’ve been the same for 23 years, it’s getting boring. A change in style could be refreshing.

As they neared home, Chi Shuang next to her slowly woke up. Jiang Qi asked, “Baby, what do you think about me getting a tan?”

Chi Shuang, still groggy from sleep, was confused. “A tan?” After a moment, she caught onto another key point: “Baby?”

Only then did Jiang Qi remember she was still on camera. She pursed her lips and smiled. “My little dog is named Baby. I’m just used to calling him that.”

“Little dog?” Chi Shuang paused for a second before throwing a pillow from the car at her. “Go to hell!”

As they playfully bickered, the topic of the “tan” was completely forgotten.

They arrived home in the evening, and the production team hadn’t arranged dinner for them, only the crew had been provided with boxed meals.

Jiang Ran, while eating the plain noodles Chi Shuang had cooked, complained about the production team. “Seriously, how much does a boxed meal even cost? They couldn’t even get us one! But it’s fine. Hmph, Sister Chi’s plain noodles are the best in the world, ten thousand times better than your boxed meals!”

The director, sitting in the control room, shook his head with a smile. Yes, yes, of course, I know Chi Shuang’s cooking is amazing, but I have braised pork!

He took a bite of the fatty yet not greasy braised pork. It was delicious.

But if Chi Shuang had made it, it would’ve been even better, right? Ugh! It’s all Jiang Ran’s fault, why does she have to flaunt it like that? Is having Chi Shuang’s cooking something to brag about?

Well, yes, it is! Ugh!

The director patted his stomach and swore that before the show ended, he would definitely get to taste Chi Shuang’s cooking.

That night, Jiang Qi stared at her foundation-covered face in deep thought. She rarely wore makeup, so she didn’t have any makeup remover.

Seizing the opportunity, she knocked on Chi Shuang’s door with a pitiful expression. “Baby, I don’t have any makeup remover…”

Jiang Qi had already taken off her wig. With her black hair, red lips, and now darker skin, she looked even more alluring.

Chi Shuang was momentarily stunned, only snapping back to reality when the other woman hooked a finger into her clothes.

“What? Staring? Do I look good?”

Faced with three questions in a row, Chi Shuang pinched her cheek. “Don’t you need to remove your makeup? Come in.”

Before Chi Shuang could step aside, Jiang Qi moved closer, pressing her against the wall. “No rush. Since you like looking, why not look a little longer?”

Their breaths mingled as Chi Shuang tilted her head up and pinched Jiang Qi’s chin. “What? Trying to seduce me again?”

Jiang Qi lowered her head following the gentle pressure of the other’s hand, her gaze tender and devout. “It’s not seduction, it’s genuine emotion.”

To be honest, Chi Shuang had exercised immense restraint by not closing the distance for a kiss. Yet that very resolve shattered completely, vanishing without a trace the moment Jiang Qi spoke her next words.
