Chapter 43 The Sweetness of the Riverbank
A gentle breeze from the Huangpu River caressed her face, carrying the unique dampness of the river, causing Xiao Yilin to hunch her shoulders slightly.
Yu Chenzhou noticed this with his sharp eyes and immediately took off his coat and carefully draped it over her shoulders.
On the distant river, several sightseeing boats lit up with colorful lights one after another, the lights reflecting in the shimmering water.
As the ship moved, it drew one magnificent and long arc after another in the night.
The two walked hand in hand intimately, slowing their pace as they strolled along the riverside boulevard paved with smooth stone slabs.
The Pudong Art Museum behind me gradually lit up with warm yellow outline lights, making the building's lines look exceptionally elegant.
Before you lies a dazzling cityscape at night, with the lights of skyscrapers interwoven into a network, so vibrant that it's impossible to look away.
As the two walked slowly to the riverbank, they were greeted by a bustling crowd.
At a glance, among the groups of tourists, the sounds of children playing and couples laughing mingled together, echoing in the evening breeze.
On weekends, the riverbank is already crowded with people coming to relax, and couples can be seen everywhere, making it a popular dating spot for couples.
Even the air seemed to be filled with the sweet scent of fireworks and the aroma of love.
As agreed, Yu Chenzhou took Xiao Yilin to a dessert shop with an excellent reputation.
The queue outside the shop was very long, and you could clearly see the chefs making exquisite desserts inside the glass window. Many couples patiently waited in line.
The two moved slowly with the queue, and after waiting for more than ten minutes, it was finally their turn.
When Xiao Yilin received the marshmallow pudding from the shop assistant, she couldn't help but smile as she held one firmly in each hand.
The two then sat down to rest on a park bench by the roadside.
Looking at Xiao Yilin, who was completely immersed in joy, like a greedy child, she first carefully licked the cotton candy in her left hand, and then immediately switched to the one in her right hand, her little face full of satisfaction.
Yu Chenzhou gazed at her with such doting affection, his eyes overflowing with tenderness. A faint smile gradually appeared on his face as he softly asked:
"Is it tasty? Is it sweet?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yilin did not answer directly, but instead smiled and held the cotton candy in her left hand towards his mouth.
Her eyes and brows were filled with sweetness. After a sweet smile, she gestured with her eyes for him to try the delicious food as well.
"I'll pass!"
Yu Chenzhou gently shook his head, his gaze falling on a strand of hair that had been ruffled by the wind on her forehead. He gently brushed the hair aside, and said with a smile, his tone full of indulgence.
"Mmm, you should try some too!"
Xiao Yilin pouted slightly, her voice as sweet as melted honey, and said coquettishly, her eyes full of expectation.
"I'll eat if you feed me."
Upon seeing this, Yu Chenzhou said with a smile.
"Little brother, open your mouth, come on, let your big sister feed you cotton candy."
Xiao Yilin was amused by him and did not refuse at all. Instead, she raised her chin to signal Yu Chenzhou to bring his head closer.
Yu Chenzhou's smile deepened, and following her words, he bent down slightly and opened his mouth in cooperation.
But just as his lips were about to touch the cotton candy, Xiao Yilin suddenly smiled slyly.
She took a small bite of the marshmallow herself, then leaned forward slightly and pressed her sweet lips directly onto Yu Chenzhou's lips.
The soft touch was fleeting; a moment later, their lips slowly parted.
Yu Chenzhou subconsciously licked the corner of his mouth, still able to taste the lingering sweetness of the cotton candy, and the delicate fragrance of her lips. His eyes crinkled with joy as he said:
"So sweet."
"Is the cotton candy sweeter, or am I sweeter?" Xiao Yilin asked.
"Hmm, that's the question!"
Yu Chenzhou deliberately dragged out his words, paused as if feigning difficulty, and then looked at Xiao Yilin's face.
She held two cotton candies in her hands, her cheeks slightly puffed out, with a coquettish look on her face that said, "If you dare to answer wrong, I won't let you off the hook."
He couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then said:
"It's too fast, I can't taste it yet. Can I have another chance to taste it properly?"
"Hmph, I'm not giving you any!"
Xiao Yilin pouted angrily, turned her head sharply away, deliberately avoiding looking at him, her tone carrying a hint of anger, but mostly a touch of coquettishness.
"It's okay, we can feed ourselves!"
Yu Chenzhou chuckled softly. Before Xiao Yilin could react, he leaned down and took a small bite of the cotton candy.
Immediately afterwards, he gently cupped Xiao Yilin's cheeks in his hands and kissed her directly, passing on the sweetness of his mouth to her.
Yu Chenzhou's sudden action startled Xiao Yilin, her eyes widening slightly before she relaxed and reciprocated the sweet, cotton-candy-like kiss.
The sweetness in their mouths mingled with the intimate breath between them, slowly melting in their hearts, warm and comforting.
After a long while, the two slowly separated, their noses touching, their breaths mingling.
Looking at her flushed cheeks, Yu Chenzhou nodded with satisfaction and said with absolute certainty:
"Mmm, as expected, our Xiao Meiren is sweeter, much sweeter than cotton candy."
Yu Chenzhou's sweet words made Xiao Yilin's cheeks blush even more, but her smile became even more radiant, like a blooming flower.
She protested coquettishly:
"That's not fair! You stole all the sweetness from me, and I want more!"
The two shared the cotton candy, taking turns eating it and chatting and laughing. Half an hour passed quickly, and the two cotton candies were completely eaten.
At this moment, Xiao Yilin simply sat on Yu Chenzhou's lap, her arms affectionately wrapped around his neck, her hair falling onto his shoulders, looking at him with seductive eyes, her tone languid and charming.
"You, just because you have a talisman, you're always trying to provoke me in different ways."
"Wait until your lucky charm is gone, then I'll see how I deal with you."
Yu Chenzhou felt a surge of warmth in his heart from her teasing. Helplessly, he gently pushed her away and softly told her to stand up from his lap. He then took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.
"It's okay, I get a talisman every month. You can look at it but you can't eat it, it'll make you drool."
As she spoke, Xiao Yilin obediently got off his lap.
Yu Chenzhou smiled silently, then looked at his watch. Seeing that the hands were almost pointing to seven, he asked:
"It's almost seven o'clock, shall we go eat? Is there anything you particularly want to eat?"
"How about we go get some barbecue?"
Xiao Yilin sat down next to him again, naturally linking her arm with his, and gently resting her head on his shoulder, making a suggestion.
"It feels like it's been ages since I've had barbecue. I suddenly really miss that sizzling, oily aroma."
"Okay, it's been a while since I've had this."
Yu Chenzhou nodded in agreement and turned to look at her.
"Should we go to a dedicated barbecue restaurant, or a food stall on the pedestrian street?"
These past few days, he has taken Xiao Yilin to visit some authentic old restaurants, and they have indeed never eaten barbecue or other smoky and lively food.
Let's go to the pedestrian street!
Xiao Yilin answered without hesitation.
"The barbecue stalls on the pedestrian street have the best atmosphere. They're bustling with people, and you can also browse the surrounding stalls while you're there."
Once the destination was decided, the two got up and set off side by side towards the limited-time pedestrian street in Zhengda Plaza.
On the way, Xiao Yilin also stopped by the restroom to touch up her makeup.
After touching up their makeup, the two held hands again and walked slowly along Fucheng Road, chatting and laughing along the way, sharing their little thoughts from time to time.
Just as they reached the vicinity of the Oriental Pearl Tower, a man holding a phone stand suddenly rushed over from the side and went straight up to them.
Completely disregarding the occasion, he blocked their path, turned around, and pointed his phone camera directly at Xiao Yilin's face, showing no intention of avoiding it.
Yu Chenzhou and Xiao Yilin stopped in their tracks, their gazes falling on the phone stand in the man's hand.
The screen was filled with a dense barrage of scrolling comments, and the two of them instantly understood.
The man was a live streamer, and judging from his demeanor and the number of comments, he was probably a moderately famous internet celebrity.
Thinking of this, Yu Chenzhou felt a bad premonition rise in his heart, and the man's next words made that premonition a reality.
"Hey, nice to meet you, beautiful lady!"
The man shouted at the top of his lungs, his tone full of frivolity.
"I am Xiaoming, a popular live streamer with two million followers!"
"Look, everyone! I've caught a stunningly beautiful woman!"
As he spoke, he completely disregarded the obvious dating atmosphere between the two and ignored the growing hostility on Xiao Yilin's face, his eyes brazenly scanning her up and down.
He lingered on her legs for a long time, then said:
"Wow, beautiful, your legs are really impressive!"
After saying that, he raised his eyebrows and grinned mischievously at the phone camera, making all sorts of exaggerated and greasy expressions.
"Family members, look at this face, this figure, especially those long legs! Quickly rate her in the chat!"
Brother Xiaoming turned to the camera, inciting the audience, then turned back to look at Xiao Yilin with a confident expression.
"I bet five cents I can ask her for her WeChat right now and it'll work!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out and grabbed Xiao Yilin's arm.
Xiao Yilin was filled with resistance to his touch. She subconsciously took half a step back, her brows furrowing instantly. Her eyes were full of vigilance and disgust as she stared at him defensively, her body tensing slightly.
"Beautiful lady, don't be so formal!"
Xiao Ming was completely oblivious to Xiao Yilin's resistance, and instead took advantage of the situation by moving closer.
"Can we add each other on WeChat?"
Let's chat with Brother Xiaoming for a while, so that my family can all get to know you.
If they like you and send you gifts, Brother Xiaoming will treat you to a big meal today!
As soon as he finished speaking, the live stream chat was flooded with comments like, "Hey beautiful, don't be shy, leave your WeChat ID!" and "Go for it, streamer, get her WeChat ID!" It was full of teasing and jeering.
Yu Chenzhou reacted extremely quickly. The moment Xiao Yilin stepped back, he immediately stepped forward, his tall figure acting as a barrier, completely protecting Xiao Yilin behind him.
His eyes instantly turned cold, and he said to Xiaoming in an icy tone:
"Take your hand away, turn the camera around, and stop wasting our time."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ming not only didn't turn the camera away, but instead smiled nonchalantly and looked at Yu Chenzhou, saying:
"Bro, is this your girlfriend?"
You're so lucky! With legs like those, you could marry her and have fun for a lifetime!
As soon as he finished speaking, the live stream was flooded with vulgar comments such as "Legs to admire for years" and "So envious".
Seeing that the number of viewers and the popularity of the live stream were still rising, Xiao Ming's secret joy intensified, and his smirk became even more pronounced. He continued to provoke:
"Dude, we're just having fun, trying to liven up the stream. Don't take it so seriously, or are you just a sore loser?"
As he spoke, he deliberately moved the phone camera closer to Yu Chenzhou's face.
"Family members, look at this handsome guy! He's quite possessive of his food!"
This is none of your business, please move aside.
Maybe after my live stream, you, beautiful lady, will fall in love with the feeling of being a streamer?
Who knows, she might be the next internet celebrity with a million followers!
Hey beautiful, don't hide in the back! Come out and say hello to everyone!
"It's just making friends. Maybe my family will be so happy they'll even buy you a sports car!"
Once he stirred things up, the viewers in the live stream, who were always eager for drama, joined in the frenzy, flooding the screen with all sorts of vulgar comments.
As Xiaoming watched the scrolling comments and rising popularity, he laughed even more smugly, completely unaware that his behavior had crossed someone else's line.
Yu Chenzhou had long known that many online celebrities would do all sorts of unscrupulous things to gain traffic and attract attention, but he never expected to encounter it in person one day.
He considered himself to have good self-control, but at this moment, he also had the urge to kick him to death.
Xiao Yilin keenly sensed his suppressed anger and, fearing he might act impulsively, leaned halfway out from behind him, her voice clear and firm with an undeniable seriousness:
"We do not accept any form of live streaming interaction. Please stop filming immediately and delete all footage you have just captured."
"Why delete? This is a perfectly legal street live stream!"
Xiao Ming retorted stubbornly, showing no sign of backing down, his fingers still rapidly swiping across the phone screen, interacting with the viewers in the live stream, and continuing to argue relentlessly:
"My family all say they want to see more of the beautiful lady's face. Beautiful lady, don't be so stingy, just come out and let everyone see you, okay?"
Before he could finish speaking, Yu Chenzhou suddenly reached out and precisely pressed down on his wrist, which was holding the phone stand.
He didn't use too much force, but he precisely controlled Xiaoming, making it impossible for him to break free.
Yu Chenzhou's gaze swept over the comments on his phone screen, such as "So beautiful and innocent," "Long-legged beauty," and "Streamer, go for it!" His eyes grew even colder, and his tone became utterly authoritative:
"National laws clearly stipulate that a person's portrait may not be made, used, or made public without the consent of the person whose portrait rights are involved."
Your actions constitute an infringement. I'm warning you one last time: immediately delete all the videos you just filmed, or I will take legal action and make you bear the corresponding legal consequences.
In fact, with Yu Chenzhou's abilities, he could have easily snatched the phone and deleted the video, but he knew very well that a slight lesson would have no effect on someone like Xiaoming who had no bottom line when it came to traffic.
Instead, it will become a tool for him to gain traffic.
Therefore, Yu Chenzhou did not choose to take direct action, but instead made clear demands and gave a stern warning, placing himself on the absolute high ground of law and morality.
In Yu Chenzhou's view, such people are unlikely to listen to advice; in fact, they might even become more aggressive.
Therefore, once this warning process is initiated, there's no need to personally deal with him afterward; instead, you can make him pay the most severe price.
