"That big drop was so thrilling, I felt like my heart was going to jump out of my throat."
After stepping off the raft, Luo Wenwen's expression was still one of lingering shock.
Truth be told, given her personality, she would never have voluntarily gone for such a thrilling activity.
However, this time she was dragged along by Catherine, and with Du Fei and Gong Chengbin present, she wasn't one to be overly coy. So, she decided to go for it.
And after this ride, she found it incredibly exciting and exhilarating.
"Really? Then should we go for another round?"
Gong Chengbin was actually a little scared himself, but he put on a brave face in front of Wenwen.
Luo Wenwen quickly waved her hand, "No, no, I don't dare to go again. Catherine, do you want to go again?"
Catherine was an athletic enthusiast and enjoyed thrilling activities. So Luo Wenwen asked.
However, Catherine shook her head, "Forget it. Seeing Du Fei's expression and reaction just now, I instantly lost interest in playing again."
Huh?
This somehow involved her? Du Fei was speechless.
"What's wrong? What did Du Fei do?"
Luo Wenwen instinctively asked.
Catherine pointed at Du Fei with a hint of annoyance, "Everyone else was screaming in fear and their faces were pale, but I happened to see this guy with a completely expressionless face. The most infuriating thing was that he didn't even hold onto the raft's handles, just sat there with his arms crossed. Looking at him and then at ourselves, hmph, I instantly lost interest."
It turned out that during the rafting, Catherine had been occasionally glancing at Du Fei. And what she saw was astonishing.
Du Fei hadn't used his hands to hold onto the raft at all throughout the ride, yet he remained as stable as a steadfast pillar, his expression unchanged from beginning to end.
"Catherine, you can't say that. Did you forget Du Fei practices Qigong? He's definitely stronger than us."
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Luo Wenwen thought it seemed like a natural explanation.
Seeing that everyone's attention was on Du Fei, Gong Chengbin couldn't help but regret bringing Du Fei along. Now, Du Fei had stolen the spotlight, and he was reduced to a mere supporting character.
Du Fei hadn't expected Catherine to be paying that much attention to him. Her comment made it seem like he was deliberately showing off.
Especially seeing Gong Chengbin's expression, he knew the guy must be feeling complicated. After all, he had planned this outing with Luo Wenwen to improve their relationship, but it had turned into Du Fei's solo show. Anyone would feel uncomfortable.
Just as Du Fei was about to say something to explain, a giant Ferris wheel appeared before their eyes.
Luo Wenwen said she hadn't been on a Ferris wheel in a long time and pulled Catherine along to ride it together.
Unexpectedly, after queuing and buying tickets, Catherine took the initiative to say she wanted to ride with Du Fei, which surprised everyone.
"Wenwen, since that's the case, let's ride together. Let's hurry up, or we'll be blocking the people behind us."
Gong Chengbin didn't hesitate. He directly pulled a somewhat stunned Luo Wenwen and was the first to enter the Ferris wheel cabin.
Du Fei and Catherine then followed into the cabin behind them.
After other cabins gradually filled with people, the Ferris wheel slowly began to turn.
Although the Ferris wheel cabin wasn't small, it was inevitable for two adults to be seated close to each other.
Cherishing this rare opportunity to be alone with Luo Wenwen, Gong Chengbin was contemplating what topics to discuss. Unexpectedly, Luo Wenwen spoke first.
"Chengbin, how is Du Fei's relationship with his girlfriend?"
What?
Luo Wenwen, out of the blue, was asking about Du Fei and his girlfriend's relationship?
Seeing Gong Chengbin look at her with confusion, Luo Wenwen quickly explained, fearing he might misunderstand. "Well, have you ever felt that Catherine has quite a good impression of Du Fei?"
As Catherine's good friend, Luo Wenwen could naturally sense that Catherine's attention towards Du Fei was a bit excessive, and she had even subtly inquired about Du Fei before.
At the time, Luo Wenwen was extremely shocked. Her good friend, in terms of family background, figure, and looks, was top-tier and never lacked suitors.
Yet, she had never paid attention to anyone and had always been unapproachable to any man.
But after getting acquainted with Du Fei, her good friend seemed like a completely different person.
For instance, before coming out today, when Catherine heard Du Fei was coming, she spent half an hour meticulously applying makeup for herself.
"Yes, I have a feeling. Have you tried to probe her?"
Gong Chengbin nodded immediately upon hearing this.
After all, he wasn't foolish. Catherine hadn't made any effort to hide her feelings, so it was natural that he could tell she had a good impression of Du Fei.
"She won't say it herself, so how could I ask? I was thinking of asking you first, how is Du Fei's relationship with his girlfriend?"
In foreign countries, actively inquiring about someone's private life is easily seen as intrusive. Coupled with Catherine's independent personality, Luo Wenwen would certainly not bring it up herself.
Gong Chengbin said, "But regardless of whether Catherine has a good impression of Du Fei or not, Du Fei and his girlfriend have a very strong relationship. She has no chance."
Hearing Gong Chengbin's firm statement, Luo Wenwen was a bit puzzled. "No chance at all? I didn't tell you before, but Catherine's family is one of the top multinational conglomerates in Europe, and she's not lacking in looks or figure. There's an old Chinese saying, 'A woman pursuing a man is like going through a thin veil.' I don't believe Du Fei isn't moved at all."
Upon hearing that Catherine came from a major European corporation, Gong Chengbin was slightly taken aback. However, he quickly recovered, "I understand Du Fei quite well. He doesn't care about material things at all. Otherwise, with his capabilities, is there anything he couldn't get? Besides, you haven't met his girlfriend. Perhaps apart from her family background being slightly inferior to Catherine's, she is even more outstanding in other aspects. As for Du Fei, he is a devoted man like myself, so he won't fall for someone else."
Gong Chengbin didn't forget to include himself at the end of his statement.
He hadn't actually met Du Fei's girlfriend, but Catherine's appearance was already so outstanding. Could Du Fei's girlfriend be even more outstanding than her? Luo Wenwen found that hard to believe.
However, since Gong Chengbin had said it, Luo Wenwen didn't intend to delve deeper into the matter.
Alas, she never expected that her good friend would fall for a man so hard, only to find out he already had a girlfriend, and a very outstanding one at that.
Luo Wenwen couldn't help but feel a bit sorry for Catherine.
