Chapter 163 I Dare!
"What are you doing, we're at school!" Bu Mengting hurriedly pushed with her hands against Lin Tian, who was on top of her.
Lin Tian, grinning, let go of Bu Mengting and let her lean against him, then bent down to give her a kiss.
"Get off!" Pushing Lin Tian away, Bu Mengting sat up and rolled her eyes, "You always deceive me, claiming you sprained your ankle!"
"You knew I was tricking you, yet you still came!" Lin Tian chuckled mischievously.
"Who asked me to be poisoned by you!" Bu Mengting glared at Lin Tian and pouted her lips.
"You are the best! I know Mengting treats me the best!" Lin Tian said with a smile that seemed to seek favor.
"Stop it!" Bu Mengting turned her head away.
After some playful banter and sweet talk from Lin Tian, Bu Mengting finally stopped giving him the cold shoulder and began to soften her attitude.
Half an hour later, the two lay on the grass, with Bu Mengting's head resting on Lin Tian's chest, gazing at the pitch-black night sky and whispering, "Lin Tian..."
"Hmm?" Lin Tian gently stroked Bu Mengting's smooth hair and softly responded.
"Why are you so lecherous..." Bu Mengting whispered quietly, and after finishing, somewhat annoyed, she lightly bit the muscle on Lin Tian's chest.
Lin Tian held back from crying out, pretending nothing had happened, and with a smile said, "It's just a man's nature!"
"Then who do you choose between me and Miss He?" Bu Mengting released her bite on Lin Tian's chest, looked up, and asked.
"Hmm..." After a moment's thought, Lin Tian replied with a playful grin, "I want both!"
"In your dreams!" Hearing this, Bu Mengting sat up in a huff.
"Uh..." Lin Tian sat up somewhat awkwardly, scratching his head. Find your adventure at My Virtual Library Empire
After hesitating for a while, he reached out to put his arm around Bu Mengting's shoulder.
"Don't touch me!" Bu Mengting slapped Lin Tian's hand away directly.
Sitting there somewhat awkwardly, Lin Tian hesitated a bit before asking, "Is there really no chance?"
"What do you think!" Bu Mengting turned her head, looked at Lin Tian with an expressionless face, and after staring at him for a while, somewhat irritatedly she pointed at the Lotus Pond in front of them, "Fine, I'll give you a chance. Jump in there and don't come back up!"
After glancing at the pitch-black Lotus Pond below and then back at Bu Mengting, Lin Tian didn't say anything else and leaped to his feet and jumped!
Splash!
A splash sounded as Lin Tian plunged into the Lotus Pond.
Seeing that Lin Tian really jumped, Bu Mengting was stunned.
After a moment of being stunned, Bu Mengting hurriedly stood up, looking somewhat nervously at the lake below.
The dim lights allowed her to see calm waters below; Lin Tian hadn't come up for air!
Seeing this, Bu Mengting began to feel nervous. She had heard from upperclassmen that Lotus Pond was seven or eight meters at its deepest, and a girl had drowned there a few years earlier.
Staring intently at the lake surface, Bu Mengting shouted, "Hey, Lin Tian!"
Utter calmness!
The lake below didn't stir at all, as if no one had jumped into it.
Taking a deep breath, Bu Mengting felt her heartbeat quickening. Even though she knew Lin Tian could swim, his current state truly worried her.
After waiting a while and still seeing no movement on the water's surface, by now nearly a minute had passed since Lin Tian had jumped.
Bu Mengting grew genuinely concerned. Her face tense, she yelled at the lake, "Hey, come up, I forgive you!"
Utter calmness!
The water beneath was still serene.
Seeing no response, Bu Mengting panicked, pacing back and forth on the grass a few times before turning her head and shouting at the lake again, "Come out, I promise I'll agree to whatever you say!"
"Splash!" Just as Bu Mengting finished speaking, a sound of water disrupted the silence, and Lin Tian's head popped up from below.
Lin Tian climbed out of the lake, looking at Bu Mengting and exclaimed, "You said it, you promised to agree to whatever I say."
"You!" Seeing Lin Tian emerge drenched from the lake, Bu Mengting glared at him, tears suddenly welling up as she cried out, "You... you just love to bully me!"
"What?" Seeing the tears in Bu Mengting's eyes, Lin Tian panicked, hurriedly stepping forward to comfort her, "I'm sorry, so sorry, don't cry, don't cry!"
"Do you know how worried I was just now!" Bu Mengting pounded on Lin Tian's shoulder with her right hand.
"Oh, sorry, sorry! There, there! Don't cry anymore!" Lin Tian hastily consoled her.
Despite the consolation, Bu Mengting eventually calmed down.
Seeing Bu Mengting settle down, Lin Tian asked tentatively, "About what you said just now..."
"What I said just now? I didn't say anything!" Bu Mengting snorted.
"You're going back on your word, I'm jumping into the river!" Lin Tian said as he turned to run back towards the lake.
"You, stop right there!" Bu Mengting quickly called out.
But Lin Tian didn't stop, indeed looking as if he was about to jump in again.
Seeing this, Bu Mengting had no choice but to shout, "Alright, whatever you say goes."
At these words, Lin Tian paused, turned around with a smile, and said triumphantly, "No taking it back, okay!"
"Hmph!" With a cold huff, Bu Mengting turned away, ignoring Lin Tian.
"Come on, no more being mad!" Lin Tian walked over with a merry smile.
After some words of comfort, Bu Mengting's mood was once again steady.
After chatting for a bit, since Lin Tian was soaked through, they didn't stay outside any longer. Lin Tian went to his dormitory to change clothes, and Bu Mengting headed back to hers as well.
Entering the male dormitory, Lin Tian walked toward his room while pondering the scene that just unfolded,
"Clearly, it's impossible to get Bu Mengting to agree to let me find two women, but this evening was a breakthrough, at minimum planting a seed in her heart. Even the most formidable fortress can be breached bit by bit... slowly..." Lin Tian thought to himself.
