Fallen for You: The Idol and His Fan-Chapter 104 - 95: Bali Island (Part 2)

Bali Island is situated at the equator, with a typical tropical rainforest climate, and an average year-round temperature of 28 degrees Celsius. It’s much warmer here compared to the low temperatures in Yanchuan.

By the time they met up with Yang Li at the restaurant, the dishes everyone ordered had just been served.

Seeing their tardy appearance, everyone else’s gazes were particularly suggestive.

Xiang Qichen didn’t mind, pulled out a chair for Zhou Huaiyi to sit first, and then sat down beside her, raising his hand to call the waiter.

"What would you like to eat?" He turned to look at her.

Zhou Huaiyi glanced at the menu: "Spaghetti."

When the food arrived, Xiang Qichen wiped the knife and fork with a napkin and placed it in her bowl, then scooped a bowl of mushroom soup from his own and handed it to her with a nonchalant face: "Eat."

Everyone looked on with envy and amazement: It’s killing us with sweetness.

Zhou Huaiyi felt uneasy under their gaze, awkwardly smiled at everyone, and began drinking the soup with a spoon.

The girl sitting across from her was a makeup artist in Xiang Qichen’s team, named Wang Zhizhi, three years older than Zhou Huaiyi. Since breaking up with her boyfriend after graduating college, she hadn’t found anyone she liked.

Watching Xiang Qichen’s thoughtful actions now, her girlish heart overflowed, resting her chin in her hands: "Zhou Huaiyi, I envy you..."

Yang Li whispered while cutting steak: Hmph, would they have gotten together without me?

Zhou Huaiyi took a big bite of pasta, squinting with a smile: "You can do it too."

At these words, Xiao Yu was the first to retort: "Her? Impossible, too rough."

Before he could finish, Wang Zhizhi stuffed a crispy roll into his mouth: "Shut up and eat your food!"

Xiao Yu angrily pulled the roll from his mouth: "See, not gentle at all, what man would dare want her?"

Xiang Qichen calmly took a sip of hot soup, and said lightly: "You could want her."

Wang Zhizhi: "..."

Xiao Yu: "..."

Zhou Huaiyi laughed out loud.

...

After dinner, everyone went their separate ways to find entertainment. Zhou Huaiyi felt too full, so she walked back to the hotel with Xiang Qichen.

The Bali Island night was peaceful, with gentle waves rustling, and the warm sea breeze brushed against their faces, feeling exceptionally pleasant.

"Qi Chen." She suddenly stopped in her tracks.

The man who was gazing at the ocean turned to raise his eyebrows at her.

She tilted her head, squinting her eyes with an air of mystery, beckoning him to come closer with a hooked finger.

Xiang Qichen leaned over and brought his ear closer.

Zhou Huaiyi tiptoed slightly, whispered in his ear: "I like you."

The sound of the waves suddenly surged, and all the wind noises faded away, leaving only her delicate whisper of confession.

"I like you," she repeated, "Qi Chen."

With that, she turned her head and placed a kiss on his handsome side profile.

Xiang Qichen was stunned.

Although he had heard about Zhou Huaiyi’s feelings for him from Kang Xuan many times, this was the first time hearing it directly from her.

"Wha...what’s wrong?" Seeing him in a daze without speaking, Zhou Huaiyi wondered if her enthusiasm had startled him, and she began to feel a bit panicked.

"Say it again," he said, looking down at her with intense eyes.

Zhou Huaiyi blinked in confusion, murmuring shyly: "I’ve already said it twice..."

Before she could finish speaking, he suddenly lowered his tall body again, giving her a firm kiss.

It caught her off guard and she almost forgot to breathe.

She raised her hand, tugging on the fabric at his waist, quietly accepting it.

After a while, when she looked up again, both of their breathing was noticeably heavy.

He cupped her cheeks with both hands, stared at her lips, catching his breath, and suddenly pulled her entire head into his embrace, leaving no room for resistance.

Zhou Huaiyi: "..."

Does he have to be so rough after every kiss!

——

Back at the hotel, Zhou Huaiyi came out of the bathroom after a shower, and Xiang Qichen was holding her phone saying: "A call from your dad."

Zhou Huaiyi was startled, dropped the towel in her hand, and dove over to grab it: "Hello, Dad."

Old Zhou: "Are you asleep?"

Zhou Huaiyi sat down at the edge of the bed: "Not yet, just finished showering."

Old Zhou took a drag of his cigarette, starting to complain: "I mean, you’ve just left home after the New Year and went abroad!"

Zhou Huaiyi chuckled a few times, glanced at Xiang Qichen entering the bathroom in front of her, and said: "It’s an employee perk, and it’s free, why not go!"

Convincing Old Zhou to agree to this Bali Island trip was no small feat for Zhou Huaiyi, having to persistently persuade him day and night until she finally convinced him with a call from Xiang Qichen. As for what Xiang Qichen said, he didn’t tell her, nor was she interested in asking. It was just some polite words about the supervisor praising the employee and then rewarding her with a travel perk...
