The breeze grazed their faces, stirring Tong Dongnuan's light hair and leaving behind a trail of beautiful memories. Then, the roller coaster reached its highest point.

"AHHHHHHHHHH!"

Tong Dongnuan clutched tightly onto Xia Liang's hand. With a WHOOSH, the roller coaster began to accelerate wildly, plunging downward and racing along the tracks!

Tong Dongnuan's face was still pale. This uncontrollable thrill makes me feel so uneasy. However, she was glad Xia Liang was by her side.

Xia Liang, on the other hand, was the very picture of calm. A relaxed smile played on his lips as he held Tong Dongnuan's hand, giving her courage.

Finally, the roller coaster came to a stop. Tong Dongnuan's face was alternating between flushed and pale. Xia Liang, however, just smiled and pinched her little cheek.

"How was it? Were you scared?"

At this, Tong Dongnuan straightened her back. "...I'm not scared! That was nothing!"

Seeing the brave face she was putting on, Xia Liang found her incredibly adorable and couldn't resist teasing her. "Then, how about another ride?"

Upon hearing this, Tong Dongnuan's expression changed instantly. "Ah? This..."

Looking at the bewildered Tong Dongnuan, Xia Liang laughed. "Just kidding. Since you're scared, let's pick something less thrilling."

"Who—who said I'm scared? But... choosing something else is a good idea, too."

Tong Dongnuan glanced around; if she was afraid of roller coasters, then pirate ships and drop towers were definitely out of the question.

Xia Liang looked up at the sky and suddenly said, "Let's go ride the Ferris wheel."

"The Ferris wheel..."

Tong Dongnuan's eyes immediately brightened. Her mind couldn't help but recall the happy legends about Ferris wheels from her childhood, and she was suddenly filled with immense anticipation.

There was one legend about the Ferris wheel in particular...

Lovers who ride a Ferris wheel together are destined to break up. But, if they share a sweet kiss when the wheel reaches its highest point, they will be happy together forever.

Remembering how she had fantasized about this in high school, Tong Dongnuan couldn't help but blush. "Okay... that sounds good."

Xia Liang, unaware of what she was thinking, saw that she agreed and led her toward the Ferris wheel. They queued for a short while and soon boarded a cabin.

Tong Dongnuan had already made up her mind. In a moment, I'll stake my claim and boldly kiss Xia Liang.

Xia Liang, completely oblivious, put his arm around her shoulder. "What are you thinking about, Xiao Tongtong?"

Hearing the affectionate nickname and feeling the warmth of his body so close, Tong Dongnuan's face flushed red in an instant. "N-nothing..."

"Xia Liang! Quick, look how beautiful the scenery is outside!"

As the Ferris wheel slowly rose, the ground began to recede. Gradually, the entire amusement park came into view, followed by the sprawling cityscape beyond. The closer they got to the top, the more beautiful the scenery became and the broader their view.

Yet, Tong Dongnuan couldn't help but lick her lips. Of course, she didn't actually take the Ferris wheel legend seriously. But since she had heard of it, and it was once a secret dream of hers, she naturally hoped to fulfill it. She remembered telling Xia Liang about it back in high school, though she never said that he was the person in her fantasy. She recalled how he had teased her about it for a long time.

Will he remember? Will he kiss me when we get to the top? No, that's impossible. He must have forgotten by now.

At that moment, the Ferris wheel reached its highest point. They had been playing all day, and the sun was already beginning to set in the west. Its slanting rays bathed the entire city in a warm glow, creating an indescribable atmosphere of romance and beauty. Here, at the very peak of the Ferris wheel, suspended between heaven and earth inside their enclosed cabin... it felt as if they were the only two people left in the world.

Tong Dongnuan assumed Xia Liang had forgotten and was about to take matters into her own hands. However, just then... a kiss gently landed on her lips.

Tong Dongnuan's eyes flew wide open. Her entire body felt as if it had been struck by a bolt of lightning as a warm current of pure happiness washed over her.

Xia Liang... he actually took the initiative to kiss me at a time like this, at the very top of the Ferris wheel! Could it be that he remembers?

In that instant, Tong Dongnuan felt an incomparable sweetness. I'm so glad I went to that class reunion! And he was the one who kissed me...

After a long while, as the Ferris wheel was about to touch down, Tong Dongnuan looked at Teacher Xia. "Xia Liang, you... you still remember?"

To Tong Dongnuan, this was simply unbelievable. It seems too incredible to be true. So much time has passed. But then... what just happened? Her heart began to pound even more fiercely in her chest, though it was filled with happiness and sweet delight.

"Heh... Didn't a certain fool mention this once? I'm just helping her get her wish."

In an instant, Tong Dongnuan felt a warmth flow through her entire body. It was a sudden, overwhelming wave of happiness. So... so he really did remember, and for all this time.

Tong Dongnuan suddenly recalled another part of the Ferris wheel legend.

The legend says each cabin on the Ferris wheel is filled with happiness.

When we look up at the Ferris wheel,

We are looking up at happiness.

As high as the Ferris wheel,

Is how high our happiness can be.

When we long for happiness but it is slow to arrive,

Try riding the Ferris wheel and wait as it slowly rises.

All the way to the very top.

Everything you find there,

Is the happiness your heart desires.

Tong Dongnuan knew... just now on the Ferris wheel, she had found her happiness. A happiness she would never let go of. She gripped Xia Liang's hand tightly, as if she were holding the entire universe.

When they got off the Ferris wheel, Tong Dongnuan felt a warmth blossoming in her heart. It felt like she wouldn't even be afraid to ride the roller coaster again. She would never be afraid again!

Hmm... probably!

Tong Dongnuan smiled faintly, her heart full of gratitude as she looked at Xia Liang. Their eyes met, and their shadows as a couple stretched long in the setting sun, like something out of a fairy tale. Xia Liang gently placed a vow-like kiss on her forehead.

Then... he smiled slightly, glancing at the ticket stub in his hand. "There's one last one left..."

Tong Dongnuan looked up. "What... is it?"

"The Haunted House."

"Huh?"

Xia Liang knew this was the one thing Tong Dongnuan was most afraid of. "So, do you dare to go?"

Tong Dongnuan was about to refuse, but she couldn't resist Xia Liang's goading. Come on, am I, Tong Dongnuan, really going to be scared of a haunted house? Am I not the girl who's afraid of nothing?

So, she summoned her courage. "Of course we're going!"

"Oh? Aren't you terrified of ghosts?"

Tong Dongnuan replied coolly, "They aren't real ghosts, just props meant to scare people. I, Tong Dongnuan, am not afraid of that!"

Xia Liang nodded in satisfaction. "Good. Remember those words."

Tong Dongnuan immediately felt a wave of unease and subconsciously clutched Xia Liang's hand tightly. Soon, they arrived at the entrance of the Haunted House.
