Chapter 126 Breaching the Heart’s Barrier
"Get on," Zhou Yi said, tilting his head slightly with a calm demeanor.
Su Ning stole a quick, nervous glance at him before tightening her grip on her backpack strap and climbing onto the bike. As Zhou Yi began to pedal, Su Ning found herself too shy to speak, her gaze fixed absently on the back of his head.
This young man—why did he have to be so difficult to understand?
Having never been in a relationship before, Su Ning was completely oblivious to Zhou Yi's tactics. All he wanted was to break her pride and bring her under his control.
After a long stretch of silence from the back seat, Zhou Yi spoke softly, "Hold on tight."
This time, Su Ning hesitated. "I... I'm not sure I should."
"I'm about to speed up. You'll fall if you don't hold on."
"Even if I fall, you wouldn't care," Su Ning murmured, her lips pressed together in quiet disappointment.
From ahead, Su Ning heard a deep sigh carried by the wind, tinged with an unexpected softness. A flicker of hope reignited in her heart.
Perhaps Zhou Yi wasn't as cold-hearted as he seemed?
With one hand on the handlebars, Zhou Yi reached back with the other, gently guiding Su Ning's hand to rest on his waist.
