Chapter 23: Chapter 23 Second Draw!
Because today is Wednesday, there aren't many people coming here to bungee jump.
Zhang Jingdong and his friends only waited for three people before it was their turn.
At this moment, Zhang Jingdong turned his head to glance at Li Yiran, teasing her: "Do you want to jump first, or should I?"
Li Yiran paused for a moment, trying to calm her breathing: "...You go first."
Zhang Jingdong smiled: "I'm afraid that if I jump first, you'll be left up there alone and won't dare to jump!"
It seemed that Zhang Jingdong had guessed what was on her mind, and Li Yiran's pretty face instantly blushed.
"I... I still can't overcome this instinctive fear."
Zhang Jingdong said solemnly: "There are many things that if you don't dare to do the first time, you might never dare to do in your life, and this will definitely leave many regrets in your life."
Li Yiran was moved by Zhang Jingdong's words once again, and she let out a long sigh: "Alright, then I'll jump first!"
Zhang Jingdong noticed the fear still present in her eyes and took the opportunity to say: "Never mind, let's jump together!"
"We... jump together?" Li Yiran was surprised: "Is that... allowed?"
"Of course, the basic load of this rope is 200 kilograms, and the maximum load is 1000 kilograms, so it can easily hold both of us!"
Hearing this, Li Yiran felt relieved: "Then... okay."
Afterwards, Zhang Jingdong went forward to talk with the staff, and then the two of them went up to the jumping platform.
Now there was nothing obstructing the view in front of them, above was the azure sky, and below was the hundred-foot abyss.
Li Yiran subconsciously took two steps back, only to be grabbed by Zhang Jingdong.
Zhang Jingdong stared at her and said: "Since you are already here, you are just one step away from overcoming yourself!"
"Li Yiran, think about the difficulties and setbacks you have faced, think about the people and things you never dared to confront before, and after jumping from here, all that will vanish into thin air!"
"After a moment, the you who will be reborn from death will be a brand-new you!"
"Li Yiran, come, let's embrace death together!"
At that moment, Li Yiran felt completely ignited by Zhang Jingdong's words!
She seemed to really forget everything, at this moment in her eyes there was only the hundred-foot abyss below, and the man who had saved her and was now redeeming her soul again.
She was both excited and moved as she met his gaze: "Okay, I'll embrace death with you!"
She said, taking two steps forward, returning to the jumping platform.
"The Host successfully gains 10 points of goodwill from the target person, reward $20,000!"
Zhang Jingdong felt a warm sensation in his heart, and extended his other hand towards Li Yiran.
Li Yiran didn't hesitate at all and also reached out to hold Zhang Jingdong's hand.
"I'll count to three and then we jump, okay!"
"Mhm."
"Three..."
Zhang Jingdong had just counted the first number when he pulled Li Yiran down with him.
"Ah..."
"Ah..."
Two long screams from a man and a woman echoed in the sky!
Although Li Yiran was a bit caught off guard, as she jumped down from the platform, she felt as if she was truly walking toward death.
And after bouncing back from the bottom, she truly felt a sense of being reborn from death.
The her that had been constantly burdened by difficulties and setbacks was now dead, the reborn her would live out a brand-new self.
And for the first time, Zhang Jingdong thoroughly accepted the reborn himself, the timid, lazy, and unambitious person from his past life was completely dead!
The two bounced up and down in mid-air several times, shouting loudly from time to time.
But now, their shouts were no longer of fear, but of cheer.
Ten minutes later, the two landed on a boat on the lake and were brought ashore.
The two removed their equipment and left the park.
With the wind tangling her hair during the skydive, Li Yiran simply took her ponytail out, letting her long hair drape over her shoulders.
At that moment, a gust of wind blew, messing up her long hair and lifting her skirt.
Zhang Jingdong subconsciously turned his head to glance, and was immediately stunned by her dazzling appearance!
Why did the scene of Marilyn Monroe's skirt being blown by the wind become a world-famous image?
Apart from her exposed beautiful legs, more importantly, it was because a beauty's subconscious panic is often the most moving.
And at this moment, Li Yiran was truly a sight to behold!
Panicked eyes, a shy pretty face, messy hair, and the stunning beauty revealed as the hair parted...
Tsk tsk, it's really not that Zhang Jingdong is lecherous, but any normal man seeing this would be overwhelmed!
Especially since Li Yiran just turned 18 this year, at the age that captivates men of all ages!
"You... what's wrong?"
Li Yiran's blushing face not only didn't return to normal, but at this moment became even redder, clearly knowing why Zhang Jingdong was acting this way.
Finally, Zhang Jingdong came to his senses and knew that no matter how he lied, the other party wouldn't believe him.
He simply said truthfully: "No... nothing, you just looked very beautiful, so I was mesmerized!"
Li Yiran obviously didn't expect Zhang Jingdong to be so direct, and didn't know how to respond.
So she shyly lowered her head and then continued walking forward.
Zhang Jingdong knew she wasn't really angry, followed her a few steps and said, "Sorry, but everyone has a love for beauty. Hasn't anyone told you before that you are very beautiful?"
Li Yiran was thoroughly embarrassed now, turned her head and gave Zhang Jingdong a glance: "You... stop talking!"
And she turned her head and continued walking forward.
Zhang Jingdong self-deprecatingly spread his hands, then followed her.
After leaving Spring Breeze Garden, the two took a taxi to the No. 3 Middle School where Li Yiran was.
Li Yiran was silent all the way, so Zhang Jingdong also didn't try to engage her in conversation.
When they got out of the car, Zhang Jingdong felt the timing was right, and said: "Sorry, what I said earlier might have been a bit frivolous. But I really didn't mean anything else, just purely admiring your beauty."
"If you don't want to forgive me, then let's not meet again in the future, but I still need your bag. I will have someone else collect it later."
Li Yiran was actually not really angry. She had just never had a boy speak to her so straightforwardly at school before, so she was a bit unable to accept it.
Hearing what Zhang Jingdong said now, she also instantly understood that he really wasn't mocking her.
Then she said: "I... I'm not angry... Thank you for today. I've never bungee jumped before, and those words you said also made me understand a lot."
"And for the foreseeable future... I'm willing to be your assistant!"
Hearing this, Zhang Jingdong's heart instantaneously erupted with joy.
Indeed, brave ones enjoy the world first!
His boldness actually won him this high school top student beauty as an assistant, tsk tsk, what a great deal!
He then said: "Okay, I'm also very satisfied with you today. I believe our cooperation in the future will certainly be more joyous."
Saying that, he took out his wallet, pulled out about five thousand cash.
Handing it to Li Yiran: "This is your pay for the coming week. I know it's a bit awkward to talk about money between us, so I'll pay you weekly upfront, so we don't have to talk about money in the coming days!"
Li Yiran was indeed a bit embarrassed to take the money, but hearing Zhang Jingdong say this, she knew she had to take it because they had already agreed.
And she really did need the money now, so after a slight hesitation, she nodded her head: "Mm."
Seeing she accepted, Zhang Jingdong then placed the money in her hands.
"Alright, go in, see you tomorrow!"
"...See you tomorrow."
Li Yiran gave Zhang Jingdong a deep look, then turned and walked away.
And when she reached the school gate, she suddenly turned her head and glanced at Zhang Jingdong, then entered.
Zhang Jingdong watched as she completely disappeared from his view before turning and getting into the car.

"Driver, go to Spring Breeze Garden next to West University."
He had originally planned to go to the pedestrian street to make money, but now that he had accumulated enough goodwill, he just wanted to draw the prizes quickly.
Half an hour later, the car slowly stopped at the entrance of Spring Breeze Garden.
Zhang Jingdong got out of the car, carrying a large cloth bag and ran back home in one breath.
He turned on the air conditioner in the bedroom, then came to the balcony, his heart moved: "I want to draw."
"Host has accumulated 30 points of goodwill from the target person, meeting the conditions for a draw."
"Would the host like to start the draw?"
"Yes."
"Drawing starts..."
"Prize one: Kobe's basketball skills."
"Prize two: Bruce Lee's combat skills."
"Prize three: Zhou Xingchi's acting skills."
"Host can only choose one!"
Zhang Jingdong immediately hesitated, mainly because he wanted all three prizes!
But there was no choice.
After thinking for a while, he said: "I choose Bruce Lee's combat skills."
