Chapter 117: The Final Plan, The Stratagem of Suffering! Yan Yan's Artificial Respiration - The Rich Second-Generation Villain With No Morals

Chapter 117: The Final Plan, The Stratagem of Suffering! Yan Yan's Artificial Respiration "Playing in the wave pool is getting dull. There's something called the Crazy Loudspeaker over there. Let's give it a try." In his past life, Qi Lin was an expert in amusement parks; he'd tried every kind of game imaginable. As for Ye Men Qing, those activities were small projects that brought the most resources. "What's the Crazy Loudspeaker? Is it fun?" Yan Yan asked with eager anticipation after fully immersing herself in play mode. "Explaining it would ruin the fun. You'll understand when we play," Qi Lin replied with a faint smile, taking the girls' hands as they headed toward the Crazy Loudspeaker. Along the way, quite a few guys watched Qi Lin with envious and jealous eyes. The two girls Qi Lin brought today were undoubtedly the prettiest in the park. Just holding one hand would be enough, but holding both hands? The single guys around could only stare in envy. "Huh? Does this Crazy Loudspeaker require us to climb stairs?" Yan Yan looked at the six-story spiral staircase ahead and couldn't help but chuckle wryly. In the height of summer, with temperatures rising above thirty degrees, climbing outdoor stairs was indeed exhausting. "How else would you slide down if not by climbing?" Qi Lin laughed, and without a second word, he dashed forward. By the time the three of them reached the top, the two charming girls, Lan Yu Xi and Yan Yan, were already kicking their feet in exhaustion. But when they saw the inflatable raft, they quickly forgot their fatigue and climbed in. "You sit around the outer edge and cross your legs in the middle; I'll give you a push," the guide joked, instructing them on how to play. "Oh, you cheek! Why tickle our feet?" As the guide finished speaking, Qi Lin's eyes glinted mischievously, and he lightly tickled Yan Yan and Lan Yu Xi's delicate soles. Their cute toes twitched, and they giggled, both glancing at Qi Lin. As the game neared its end, Lan Yu Xi placed her feet at the bottom, with Qi Lin in the middle and Yan Yan's legs resting on his. The close contact caused Yan Yan's face to flush slightly, her heart filled with warmth. "Are you ready? Here we go~!" At the shout, the three of them were sent down the water slide. "What the!?!" This time, Yan Yan screamed the loudest. Positioned up front by Qi Lin, she felt herself being propelled backward at near sixty miles per hour; the intense weightlessness was both thrilling and terrifying. Particularly upon entering the giant funnel, she almost felt the raft would flip over. "What the!?!" Her sensual voice and sharp scream were a delight, seeing her tightly shut eyes, blushing cheeks, water droplets on her face, and her long, wet hair sticking to her fair complexion painted a breathtaking picture. "This spur-of-the-moment trip to the water park was definitely worth it," Qi Lin thought, smiling inwardly. When they finally slid to the bottom, a male security guard attempted to help Lan Yu Xi and Yan Yan. Qi Lin quickly slapped his outstretched hand away. The guard glared at Qi Lin but, sizing up his six-foot-one frame and toned muscles, quickly backed down. "Man, bringing two beauties to the amusement park all by yourself, no wonder your back might hurt later," he muttered, head lowered, as he reluctantly stepped away. "Giggling~ the Crazy Loudspeaker is so much fun, Qi Lin! I want to go again," Yan Yan voiced her eagerness, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Since Yan Yan has spoken, whenever you want to play, I'll be right there with you," Qi Lin responded with a gentle smile, leading the two beauties for another round. They ended up on the Crazy Loudspeaker four more times. By the last ride, Yan Yan was completely spent, barely able to get out of the raft and needing Qi Lin to carry her like a princess. "My legs are weak; I really can't walk anymore," Yan Yan admitted, her cheeks turning pink with embarrassment. "Then what about the other attractions? Should we skip them?" Qi Lin teased, chuckling. "No way! I'm not satisfied yet~" Yan Yan promptly disagreed at the suggestion of stopping. "How about we rest for a bit before heading back?" Yan Yan proposed, blinking her beautiful eyes at Qi Lin. Qi Lin knew what she wanted but pretended not to, showing no intention of carrying her back. After all, there's a difference between walking beside someone and embracing them. Sending Lan Yu Xi a knowing wink, he set their next move in motion. Now, Lan Yu Xi, the little witch in cahoots with Qi Lin, understood perfectly. Without missing a beat, she exclaimed, "Qi Lin, can you carry me up to play at the Mystic Water Castle slide?" As she leaped onto his back, Qi Lin grasped her smooth thighs, carrying her up the stairs with apparent ease. His SSS-grade Muay Thai training granted him not only fierce combat abilities but also a powerful physique. Climbing small staircases was nothing; even a 60-kilometer hike would be no big feat. As they engaged in another round of water games, Yan Yan could only hear their joyous laughter from afar. Although she wanted to join, her trembling calves couldn't sustain her; each attempt to stand ended with her sitting back down. Ultimately, Yan Yan had no choice. When Qi Lin came sliding down the rainbow chute, she waved her hand energetically, calling out, "Qi Lin, come here! Yan Yan needs you!" Seeing Yan Yan gesturing from afar, Qi Lin and Lan Yu Xi exchanged an amused glance. "What's up, Yan Yan? Do you feel ready to play now?" Qi Lin asked, feigning ignorance. Biting her lower lip, Yan Yan finally glanced at him, her voice soft yet firm, "My muscles are still sore, and I can't walk. Could you carry me like you did with Yu Xi?" Yan Yan had been holding back, but now she conceded. With a slight smirk, Qi Lin's lips curled, "Isn't it embarrassing for you, Yan Yan? Asking me to carry you?" Lan Yu Xi suppressed a laugh, seeing Qi Lin’s playful teasing. "Hey, Qi Lin, what are you saying? You've always treated me like a little sister, haven't you? Why not see Yan Yan as your sister too? What's wrong with a little brother carrying his big sister?" Lan Yu Xi chimed in. Her words seemed to provide Yan Yan with justification. Her face turned a shade redder as she nodded earnestly, "Yes, Qi Lin, you’ve always called me Yan Yan, right? I don’t mind if you see me as an older sister." Since Qi Lin had once risked his life for her, accepting him as her little brother felt natural. "Alright then, a little brother carrying his big sister sounds reasonable," Qi Lin agreed, delighting in the situation and leaning down beside Yan Yan. Her eyes lit up with joy as she wrapped her arms around his neck, climbing onto his back. This time, she didn't need to feel any embarrassment about being carried. Qi Lin felt content, knowing this wasn't the first time. The last time, Yan Yan's heels broke, and he carried her back as well. But those circumstances were unintentional; this time, she'd requested it willingly—a significant step in breaking through her mental defenses. The entire morning passed as one of Yan Yan's happiest times. No more climbing; she simply mentioned what she wanted, and Qi Lin, ever the obliging steed, took her to the various attractions. By lunch, it was half-past eleven. "Yan Yan, sit here for a bit. I'm going to buy water with Yu Xi," Qi Lin suggested as he and Lan Yu Xi slipped away to execute the next part of their plan. As soon as Yan Yan was out of sight, Lan Yu Xi linked arms with Qi Lin, giggling, "Is today's plan nearly complete? How did I do?" Taking the three bottles of water from the vendor, Qi Lin smiled at her, "Who said today’s mission is done? We’ve yet to implement our final plan." "The final plan? What is the final plan? Tell me more," Lan Yu Xi urged with excitement. Ever since joining Qi Lin in his schemes, witnessing each layer of Yan Yan's transformation thrilled her. Watching her descent into mischief only heightened the excitement. Qi Lin leaned down, whispering the details into her ear. With a mischievous glint in her eyes, she nodded enthusiastically, her face lighting up like a playful little devil. "Here's your water, Yan Yan," she said, pretending to act casually as she handed Yan Yan a bottle. “Why don't we wrap it up here today? Qi Lin isn’t feeling too well; he wants to head back and rest," Lan Yu Xi feigned nonchalance. Startled, Yan Yan reacted immediately upon hearing about Qi Lin’s discomfort. She was anxious, knowing how much he had given that day, carrying them tirelessly through the attractions. "What’s wrong with him?" she queried, genuine concern shadowing her features. Lan Yu Xi continued, "Oh, it’s just the summer heat and all the running around. Plus, with the sun beaming down, it’s likely heat exhaustion. But nothing serious; a bit of rest will do wonders." She turned to Qi Lin, whose pallor intensified, lips slightly parched—an utterly convincing display, thanks to his SSS-grade acting skills. Even without makeup, his expertise in mimicking such weakened states was artful and subtly exaggerated. Hearing Lan Yu Xi's words, Qi Lin pretended to collapse from exhaustion. Instantly, Ya Yan felt a pang of guilt. It seemed Lan Yu Xi was hinting at something. If Qi Lin had only been carrying Lan Yu Xi, he wouldn't be so fatigued. After all, Lan Yu Xi was likely an old friend of his, so it was natural for them to be close. But what about her? She had only known Qi Lin for two days, and yet here she was burdening him. "Qi Lin, are you alright? Do you want to rest a bit before leaving?" Yan Yan asked, trying to help him. "Hey? Qi Lin, what's going on? Don't scare me!" But as Yan Yan approached, he rolled his eyes and pretended to faint into her arms. At that moment, Yan Yan could only focus on him, hurriedly calling out alongside Lan Yu Xi in alarm. "He must be suffering from heatstroke, and it's all my fault! I feel so guilty for making him carry me," Lan Yu Xi squeezed out a few tears, her dramatic flair in full swing. "No need, I'll handle it until the ambulance arrives," she said, defying Yan Yan's shocked gaze, and proceeded to give Qi Lin mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. However, her efforts alone were fruitless; Qi Lin showed no signs of reaction. "Yan Yan, I'm out of breath; it's your turn now," Lan Yu Xi implored, appearing thoroughly exhausted. "But I've... I've never done CPR!" Yan Yan stammered, embarrassed. She had never even kissed anyone before, let alone attempted mouth-to-mouth. "Yan Yan, it's a matter of life and death. Can you really stand by and let Qi Lin die?" Lan Yu Xi's eyes reddened with urgency. Remembering how Qi Lin had risked his life to save her the day before, and thinking of their moments in the water park when she sat on his back, Yan Yan resolved herself. "Qi Lin risked his life for me. How could I be so ungrateful now?" With determination glinting in her eyes, she kneeled beside him and pressed her lips to his. Yet, after the kiss, she hesitated, unsure of what to do next. "Oh dear, Yan Yan, that's not how you do CPR. You need to pinch Qi Lin's nose and blow air into his mouth," Lan Yu Xi instructed urgently. In her daze, Yan Yan followed Lan Yu Xi's guidance, her cheeks burning with embarrassment. What she didn't know was that Qi Lin had already opened his eyes, watching the beautiful girl giving him artificial respiration. Unable to resist any longer, he pulled her into an embrace. Seeing this, Lan Yu Xi signaled victory with a smirk, snapping a photo of the pair for added dramatic effect. "Qi Lin's so bad, kissing me and even taking pictures as proof. Hmph, it seems I'm not the only unlucky one. From now on, Yan Yan, we're sisters." "But remember, I was here first. Qi Lin's number one will always be me, Lan Yu Xi," she declared cheekily, a mischievous smile on her face. "Qi Lin, I'm out of breath; can you let go of me now?" a soft voice eventually broke the silence after several long minutes. "Huh? Yan Yan, what happened?" Qi Lin feigned ignorance. "I must've fainted and dreamed my girlfriend was giving me CPR. But when I woke up, it was you." Mortified, Yan Yan quickly stood up and wiped her mouth. "Let's never speak of this again, and pretend it never happened," she murmured before hastily turning to leave. Qi Lin had kissed her unexpectedly before, but this prolonged moment—where she didn't resist and even found herself breathless—was entirely different. Yan Yan knew her marriage had stifled her feelings for too long, and now she found herself drawn to Qi Lin. "No! Absolutely not! This is wrong," she told herself, heading for the showers to wash away the day's events, knowing the public water park wasn't the cleanest of places. Once refreshed and changed, she avoided Qi Lin and drove off in her MINI Cooper. "Gosh, how did I do? Do I have what it takes to join your league of villains?" Lan Yu Xi asked Qi Lin once Yan Yan had left, looking for credit for her performance. "You little devil! Your acting almost fooled me. Here's your reward," Qi Lin said as he pulled her in for a kiss. Now deeply in love, Lan Yu Xi leaned into the kiss, getting completely lost in it. "It's more refreshing than any honey lemon tea," Qi Lin laughed after their passionate exchange. "Was that really a reward? You were just taking advantage of me," she teased, though clearly content. Returning to the car, Qi Lin pulled out some cash, placing a stack worth over ten thousand into Lan Yu Xi's hands. "What's this for? I'm your girlfriend, not someone you buy," Lan Yu Xi pouted, displeased at the sight of the money.
