After several days, Bei Er Duo and Ye Shu Wei maintained their habit of meeting each other once in a week. Basically it was for taking a photo. The location of the photo would be chose near Ye Shu Wei's office. It could be garden, small coffee shop, steam dumpling shops, roadside. Basically it would be around the research department office.
"Next time let's go to Mountain Yun Cha." Bei Er Duo bit the straw, she looked at the man in front of her, who was writing something.
"It is too far." He voted down.
"Then Ocean Park?"
"Too noisy."
"Rural area?"
"Not interested."
Bei Er Duo moved her drink away: "Then what is interesting for you?"
"Being alone and play game, read books, sleep."
"I mean for two people."
Ye Shu Wei stopped writing, then raised his eyes to look at her: "With you?"
"With your girlfriend." Bei Er Duo used her hands to support her chin, she grinned: "Think about it. If you are in relationship, then what are you hoping to do with your partner."
Ye Shu Wei really took time to consider this question, after a while he said: "then do rock-climb, parachute jumping, bungee jumping are good things."
Bei Er Duo smiled superiorly: "You don't like an ordinary sport in the ground level?"
"Sport in the ground level?" He continued to look at her, " You mean riding a bicycle, skating, and jogging? Even you don't try it, you will know it is very boring."
"Yet it is very safe." She complemented.
"So actually your gut is really tiny."
Bei Er Duo felt that kind of "disdainful" tone from him, she felt a bit unhappy. She thought about it and asked: "Have you play bungee jumping?"
"I've played it so many times."
"What did you feel when you are jumping down?"
"Relaxing, freedom."
"Really? Isn't it should be a feeling of fear of falling down into a hole?"
"You would be tied with a rope, how could you feel fear?"
"What if the rope broke off?" Bei Er Duo frequently has this kind of anxiousness.
"In advance you should check and inspect it first, then the chance would be very small." Ye Shu Wei looked at her, and his gaze showed his mocking.
"But it also couldn't be a complete guarantee of safety?"
"Of course it is not."
Bei Er Duo was surprised, and contemplated. She then said: "I think we should just play a safer sport."
"Such as?"
"Just do roller coaster?"
Ye Shu Wei stopped for five seconds, then he retreated his gaze and continued to write.
Being looked down once again, Bei Er Duo pressed one luck again, then suggested: "Let's play jumping from a building attraction!"
"You mean the attraction in the theme park with 45 meter high?" He said calmly. "What is the different between that and ordinary sport?"
"…. 45 meter, it's already really high, okay?" Now she felt to be present on the scene, she was so nervous.
Ye Shu Wei finally stopped his hands, and closed his notes. He crossed his hands: "You really want to go to play?"
Being able to say until this matter, she couldn't take back her words. Bei Er Duo planned to challenge her limit, she nodded seriously: "I want to go."
Sunday, H city's certain theme park.
The sun rose high in the sky, they both stood not far from the jumping from a building attraction. Bei Er Duo raised her head high to look at the floors of the building. Her heart started to be scared….
She was thinking whether she should say "Today the weather is so hot, it should be really hot up there. If not we wait until it's cold, and come back to play." When she was thinking, a man behind her say with his scornful tone: "Only like this?"
Only like this…..
Only like this…..
Only like this……
Bei Er Duo turned her head over, and looked at the Ye Shu Wei. He was wearing his sport suit today, and he was opening his mineral water bottle.
He looked really calm, he drunk his water.
"Today the weather seems to be so hot." Bei Er Duo said.
"37 degree."
"It should be hotter up there." Bei Er Duo continued, "If not…."
"Let's resolve this in the shortest time as possible." He said, "Let's go, you already watched and saw it from a far for a long time. Would you buy the ticket or not?"
"O, let's go." Bei Er Duo went up as slow as the snail.
"If you afraid, then tell me. We will not play this one." Upon seeing her action, he finally said.
"Who is afraid? I just a bit unadaptable to it." Bei Er Duo said heartlessly, she tried to hold to her thinking, "Hurry up buy the ticket."
When they were lining up for the ticket, Bei Er Duo listened there was a kid told her mama.
Kid said: "Mama, I want to play that up and down attracction."
Mama was expressing her straight nature: "You couldn't play the jumping of the building attraction. There was once a girl, like you with braid. She got on it, when it went up, her braid was jammed in the machine. She almost broke her scalp, even her neck was full of blood."
The kid extended her hands to stroke her braids, then she said: "I will not play it."
"……" Bei Er Duo's heart was beating really fast. She even hadn't been in it, but her body was full of cold sweat.
"You could still decide to not play this." Ye Shu Wei said, "Don't you try to show off."
Bei Er Duo took a deep breath. In her heart she thought, she was already until this step. If she gave up now, she would be looked down by Ye Shu Wei. Even she would look down on herself.
When Bei Er Duo got in the attraction, her whole body was trembling greatly. She tried to fasten the seatbelt, but she couldn't do it even after the second try.
When she tried to take the third attempt, Ye Shu Wei said: "Wait, let me."
He helped her first to fasten the seatbelt, and fasten his.
The attraction started to go up bit but bit, she tried to be brave. During the whole attraction time, she thought to just looking down and seeing her knee."
"Look around."
Bei Er Duo raised her head slowly, and looked around. It was a wide horizon, she could overlook the whole theme park.
"The scenery is good." He was really completely opposite of scared Bei Er Duo. Ye Shu Wei was so happy and content in the high place: "It's a pity that it was too low."
Finally they reached the highest point, Bei Er Duo's throat was tense. She didn't dare to look again, she was expecting the fall. However for several seconds, there was no movement.
"Yi? What happened? Is it broken?" She cautiously looked down.
And suddenly, without warning, the attraction started to fall in lightning speed.
In a flash, Bei Er Duo's whole body was raised high into the air. It was unending stream of going down and up. She clutched her seatbelt tightly, closed her eyes. She couldn't think, she wanted to scream, but she couldn't. In heart she kept on saying: "If it's time to die, then just die, just submit to the will of heaven!"
Then suddenly it stopped.
She opened her eyes, and said "Are we back yet to the ground?"
The one beside her calmly said: "What are you rushing about, it just a start."
Bei Er Duo hadn't responded and she didn't understand what did he mean, however, suddenly the attraction started to move up quickly. She just understood and felt unwell: "We wouldn't go back to the most high right?"
"If not?" Ye Shu Wei surveyed around to the far place: "Since we are here, then let you to be relax for a while."
"……"
Indeed, the attraction stopped for a second then dropped again. Bei Er Duo felt so afraid…..
Then it stopped again, she was afraid that it would start to go up again. She was in anger: "Won't you let me go? I want to get off, I don't want to play this weird thing again….."
During her mutter to herself, the sound of the machine started to lower down. However, it once again sent her up to the terror.
She really shouldn't show off, shouldn't hide the reality of her fear of heights.
…..
When they done with this, Bei Er Duo couldn't really walk well.
Ye Shu Wei took her to the bench nearby. When she sat down, he passed her the water bottle.
Bei Er Duo's face was paled, she didn't say anything and just drank the water. Finally after a several second her face started to be normal.
"You are afraid of height?" Ye Shu Wei asked.
Bei Er Duo admitted silently, she prepared herself to receive his humiliation.
"Sit here and wait for me." He said it and stood up, he went somewhere.
Bei Er Duo just sat there quietly, she closed her eyes and calmed her heartbeat. Until finally, she could smell a faint orange juice.
Ye Shu Wei passed the hot orange juice to her: "Drink a bit hot drink, you will feel more okay."
"Thank you." Bei Er Duo was quite surprised.
"Eat this too to replenish your energy." He placed another plastic bag on her hand.
Bei Er Duo looked at that transparent plastic, it was full of chocolate, peppermints drops, and beef jerky.
"Thank you." She said it again.
