Chapter 485: Chapter 485: Joining the Couple Challenge
Just as Kong Lingwen was about to shake her head and refuse, she heard Yang Cheng beside her speak up: "Sure! Let’s join."
"Yang Cheng."
She furrowed her delicate brows, clearly displeased.
She could barely stand being intimate with Yang Cheng in private, but in front of everyone, it always felt so awkward to her.
"Lin Wen, it’s just a challenge, don’t be shy."
Yang Cheng said, pulling Kong Lingwen and heading towards the stage.
By that time, a dozen or so couples had already taken their places, and they were the last group to go up, catching everyone’s attention.
The man had a tall and handsome figure, while the woman wore a ladylike black dress, accentuating her exquisite body. Her face was as delicate as a doll’s, making it hard for people to look away.
As soon as Kong Lingwen appeared, quite a few men stared at her, almost turning the couple challenge into a couple crisis.
"This couple is so good-looking! Just like celebrities!"
"Especially the woman, her figure and looks are top-notch. I’m so envious of that guy for having such a pretty girlfriend!"
The crowd below was full of exclamations of admiration and envy.
Yang Cheng smiled slightly, wrapping his arm tightly around Kong Lingwen’s slender waist, declaring his ownership.
"There are a total of sixteen couples. Please get ready. The first challenge is ’Who’s My Bride!’"
As soon as the restaurant owner finished speaking, several screens were brought up by waiters, and all the women on stage stood behind them.
The lights shone on the screens, instantly casting the silhouettes of the women.
"In the first round, find your other half by their shadow. Only if you succeed can you move on to the next round."
With just a glance, Yang Cheng accurately identified Kong Lingwen. Her figure was simply too distinct.
Her bust was full and perky, waist slender at a grasp, and a pair of enviably long legs far surpassed any other woman present.
Not only did Yang Cheng immediately recognize her, but even the audience could tell.
From left to right, the men chose their partners one by one, and in some cases, two or three believed that one shadow was their girlfriend.
Yang Cheng had no hesitation and stood in front of Kong Lingwen, faced with no competition.
When the screen shifted away, Kong Lingwen gave him a slight smile, her expression of wanting to speak but refraining made his heart skip a few beats.
He took her soft hand and lifted her up, causing the crowd to cheer.
The first round of challenges had already eliminated six couples, leaving ten to continue.
At first, Kong Lingwen was quite resistant to participating in the challenge, but gradually she began to enjoy the process and cooperated more and more seamlessly with Yang Cheng.
In the subsequent rounds, they were always the first to complete, and soon only three couples remained on stage.
"After several rounds of games, it’s clear that all three couples are highly in sync. The last round will test individual abilities!"
The restaurant owner smiled and continued, "The last round is for each gentleman to lift his partner and do squats. For each squat, kiss once. The couple with the most kisses, maintaining to the end, wins."
After the previous rounds, the other two couples were somewhat tired, but Yang Cheng felt nothing of the sort.
Upon learning about the last game, he was confident that he would be the winner.
"Everyone ready? Begin!"
As soon as the words fell, the three couples started their contest.
Yang Cheng could lift Kong Lingwen with just one arm, doing a squat and giving her a kiss on her soft lips afterward.
He was quick; while others managed two kisses, he had already kissed eight times, and the kisses grew increasingly passionate and fervent.
The spectators below cheered, rooting for Yang Cheng and Kong Lingwen.
Tao Qian Qian saw this and couldn’t help but pout her red lips.
"Qian Qian, I think they really are a couple. You should let this go. With your looks and background, you’ll surely find someone better."
A nearby close friend gently advised.
Tao Qian Qian was very disappointed and complained, "Yu Yu, do you also think that I’m very far from that woman, that I’m not as pretty as her, and it’s normal for Yang Cheng not to like me?"
"You can’t think like that. You have different styles; you’re the cute type, she’s charming and sexy."
"In the face of sexy, cute counts for nothing, boohoo... I’ve been heartbroken!"
She was sobbing below, while another bout of cheers erupted around her.
Predictably, Yang Cheng won the challenge, tightly embracing Kong Lingwen, passionately kissing her on stage.
After the kiss ended, Kong Lingwen’s beautiful face was flushed, her lips swollen, and she shyly punched him on the chest.
Yang Cheng chuckled foolishly, excitedly lifting Kong Lingwen onto his shoulder.
"Ah! Too high, put me down!"
Kong Lingwen exclaimed in surprise, quickly hugging Yang Cheng’s neck in fright.
"Congratulations to you both on winning first place. This diamond necklace is for you, and today’s meal is on the house."
The generous restaurant owner, smiling, handed the diamond necklace to Yang Cheng.
"Thank you very much."
Yang Cheng expressed sincere gratitude. If not for this event, his relationship with Kong Lingwen wouldn’t have progressed so quickly. Now, even Kong Lingwen acted like other women, playfully coquettish.
He placed the diamond necklace around Kong Lingwen’s fair swan neck. The necklace wasn’t particularly extraordinary, but it looked exceptionally dazzling on her.
By the time they returned to their table, Tao Qian Qian and her friend had already left.
Noticing some tissues left for wiping tears on the table, Kong Lingwen huffed lightly, "You’ve broken another woman’s heart."
"What do you mean by ’another’? You make it sound like I’m such a scoundrel!"
Yang Cheng was a bit amused yet exasperated. He had rejected Tao Qian Qian from the start, who knew they’d meet here by chance.
"With so many women around you, wouldn’t that make you a scoundrel?"
Kong Lingwen pouted, showing a look of disdain.
In the past, she was beautiful but always wore a stern face, as if missing a soul. Now she finally had the playful charm of a young lady.
"Do you want to come back to my sister’s place tonight? There’s a family gathering. You haven’t been back, have you?"
Yang Cheng changed the topic, afraid of further tainting his image in her eyes.
"I better not go. You guys are family. I’d feel uncomfortable going."
Kong Lingwen waved her hands repeatedly; her feelings towards Yang Rou were quite complex.
She always viewed herself as a man and had feelings for Yang Rou. With Yang Rou’s gentle personality, she naturally wanted to help her.
However, after meeting Yang Cheng several times, her perspective changed entirely.
She had accepted the fact that she was a woman and even thought of being with Yang Cheng. Inwardly she felt not a hint of resistance, even holding some anticipation.
Seeing she genuinely did not want to go, Yang Cheng didn’t insist. After dinner, he drove her home.
By then, it was already five o’clock, and the sun was about to set.
He took out his phone and called Yang Rou, but as soon as it connected, a man’s voice came from the other end.
