Reborn in 2000: Reuniting with the School Belle

Chapter 159

The fireworks ended, and Yi Feng let her go, finally feeling somewhat satisfied.

“So sweet.”

Gu Muxi’s cheeks blushed as she furiously wiped her mouth, glaring at him, “Enough already, you!”

“Hehe, I’ll never have enough,” Yi Feng said with a mischievous smile.

Gu Muxi pinched the soft flesh of his waist, “No sneaking up on me in the future!”

“Ouch!”

“It was you who sneaked up on me first. This is called using the other person’s methods against them,” Yi Feng argued.

“Hmph~ I can’t be bothered with you, I’m hungry again,” Gu Muxi pouted.

“Indeed, according to scientific research, kissing is good for heart and lung functions and burns a lot of energy, which is beneficial for losing weight. I think it’s necessary to do this exercise often,” Yi Feng said earnestly.

Gu Muxi’s cheeks heated up, and she rolled her eyes at him, “You and your twisted logic!”

“Hmph~ I’m ignoring you. I’m going to have some fish soup.”

“Hehe, let me heat it up for you.”

“That’s more like it.”

“Miss, would you like another grilled fish? My grilling skills are pretty good.”

“That’s fine. Do you need my help?”

“No need, just wait to be fed.”

“What am I, a pig? Never mind, I’ll go make some tea for you.”

The two worked together, with Yi Feng preparing two fish, marinating them for a few minutes before grilling them over the fire, while Gu Muxi made tea, occasionally handing him a cup to quench his thirst.

Sometimes, the two didn’t need words, just a look or a gesture was enough to understand each other’s intentions, perfect harmony.

After brushing the grilled fish with oil three times, it wasn’t long before the aroma filled the air, the fish skin grilled to a crispy texture, and the flesh tender. Finally, sprinkled with salt, cumin, and chili powder, the aroma intensified.

“Mmm! It smells so good!” Gu Muxi looked at the grilled fish, saliva crazily secreting due to the aroma.

“Smells good, right? Please call me the grilled fish master. Not to brag, but with these skills, I could open a chain store,” Yi Feng said proudly.

“Hey, Stinky Feng, I’ve noticed you shine bright given a little sunlight. Stop talking, is it ready? I can’t wait!” Gu Muxi picked up her chopsticks, swallowing saliva.

“Don’t be so impatient, you’re like a hungry wolf.”

“Please, just hurry up, okay?”

“Hehe, how about a kiss from you?”

“Hmph!”

“Hey! Gu Muxi, don’t snatch, you want that much?”

“Don’t worry, I can eat this much!”

Yi Feng rolled his eyes, “Can you really finish such a long fish?”

“Really, don’t doubt my appetite,” Gu Muxi said, smelling the freshly snatched grilled fish, a look of satisfaction on her face.

The grilled fish weighed three to four pounds.

“Then eat, but eat slowly, okay? Grass carp has a lot of bones,” Yi Feng said, looking at her gluttonous cat appearance with concern.

“Okay, I know~” Gu Muxi casually replied, placing the grilled fish on a plate to start eating.

Under their joint efforts, the two grilled fish were completely devoured.

“Burp~”

Yi Feng burped, feeling very satisfied, “Really good, I’m full.”

“Burp~ I can’t eat anymore either,” Gu Muxi leaned back in her chair, patting her belly.

The two of them lounged in their chairs, gazing at the star-filled sky.

“The stars are so numerous tonight,” Gu Muxi, enjoying the cool night breeze on her face, remarked.

The Milky Way was faintly visible in the sky, like a waterfall spanning the horizon.

The lake reflected the myriad stars, utterly beautiful.

The campfire, the Milky Way, the lake, and having her boyfriend by her side, everything was just perfect.

Gu Muxi couldn’t help but show a sweet smile.

“Yeah, it’s beautiful,” Yi Feng agreed.

“By the way, Little Xixi, do you want an popsicle to help digest?”

“Yes! Bring it to me fast!”

Hearing about popsicles, she couldn’t refuse no matter how full she was.

Yi Feng ran into the tent and brought out two popsicles, one for each, eating them under the starry sky.

Gu Muxi sat in her chair, kicking her legs up and down, occasionally humming a tune, looking in a very good mood.

Yi Feng finished his popsicle in a few bites and mysteriously said, “Gu Muxi, I have another surprise for you.”

“Hm? Stinky Feng, you’re quite the trickster. What are you up to this time?” Gu Muxi asked curiously.

“Ah, you forgot. When we came, I told you I could give you a personal concert.”

“Wait here for me.”

Saying this, Yi Feng ran to the Audi, opened the trunk, and took out something from the very back.

Gu Muxi craned her neck to see, surprised at the shape of the object.

“A guitar?”

Yi Feng returned to the campfire with the guitar, smiling, “See, I’ve got everything prepared.”

“You know how to play the guitar? I’ve never seen you play before,” Gu Muxi was surprised.

Yi Feng chuckled, “I’ve been recognized as one of the campus’s top talents, so playing the guitar is normal for me, though I’m not that great, just barely know how to play.”

“I’ve only been learning for a short while. It’s not hard to learn this instrument if you know a bit of music theory and practice. Besides, I’m naturally talented!” Yi Feng said with a smile.

He opened his backpack, took out the guitar, and gently strummed the strings, producing a beautiful guitar sound.

Gu Muxi, with her hands propped on her cheeks, expectantly asked, “Stinky Feng, what song do you want to sing?”

Yi Feng smiled mysteriously, “A song you’ve never heard before.”

“Hm? Your own creation?”

“Not exactly, it’s a cover.”

Yi Feng strummed the guitar, softly singing.

“I forgot how it started, maybe it was just a feeling for you…”

“Suddenly found myself, deeply in love with you, it’s really simple…”

…

His deep, magnetic voice rose, striking directly at Gu Muxi’s heart.

She was stunned.

She hadn’t expected Yi Feng to sing so well.

Instantly, she rested her cheeks in her hands, slowly sinking into his singing.

The night breeze was cool, the song melodious, echoing beautifully over the lake.

After the song ended, Yi Feng stopped playing and smiled, “Did you like the song?”

“It’s beautiful! I didn’t see that coming, you have quite the skill!” Gu Muxi smiled sweetly.

“Of course. But… it’s getting late now, shouldn’t we go to sleep?” Yi Feng chuckled.

Gu Muxi’s cheeks

flushed, “Go to sleep your head!”

Half an hour later.

In the tent, the two lay stiffly, completely silent, the air filled with an awkward atmosphere.

Although their relationship had been confirmed, before breaking through that final barrier, everything seemed fine.

But now it was different. Should they do something?

Gu Muxi’s cheeks were red, her heart pounding.

“Stinky Feng, are you asleep?”
