My Girlfriend is a Cold and Aloof Sickly Beauty 162

Chapter 162: Aren’t You Jealous?!

Jiang Xue hadn’t expected the view from beneath the glass walkway, which hadn’t seemed that scary in photos and videos, to be so terrifying in person. Just looking at it for a while made her scalp tingle with an indescribable fear.

It was as if one more glance would make her shatter the glass or jump over the railing.

This inexplicable fear did make her heart race, but it wasn’t the exciting kind of thrill like riding a roller coaster. She couldn’t explain it, and not being able to explain it made her even more afraid.

Only the hand holding hers tightly reminded her that she was still alive, that her soul hadn’t left her body.

But she couldn’t pretend any longer.

Showing fear in front of Xiao Luo wasn’t a big deal!

The moment she hugged Xiao Luohan, Jiang Xue felt the chilling fear recede, buried deep in her heart.

She didn’t say anything, but Xiao Luo, as if sensing everything, put an arm around her, gently patting her back, offering comfort and reassurance.

“Should we continue walking?”

“…Yes.”

“Then hold onto me tightly, look ahead, and don’t look down.”

The glass walkway was exposed to the afternoon sun, but the cool mountain breeze offset the heat, so even hugging tightly, it wasn’t as hot as they had expected.

They were very close, their breaths mingling.

The staff on the walkway were used to seeing couples like them clinging to each other and continued to smile politely.

However, other tourists found it strange, even a little annoying.

“Aren’t they hot?”

“That’s a bit much! I’ve walked this several times!”

“I feel like a dog on the street, suddenly kicked by a couple…”

Xiao Luohan, who was waiting for the sunset with Jiang Xue, heard the comments from around them and, after thinking for a moment, took out her phone and opened the camera.

“Let’s make a glass walkway vlog,” she said to Jiang Xue. “Can you help me edit it when we get back? We need to blur the faces of the other people.”

Those comments made her suddenly realize that although she and Jiang Xue had confirmed their relationship, they hadn’t really shown any affection in public.

In the past, Jiang Xue had used her diary to record the little things that touched her in her studies and life, so she could also use vlogs to record her and Jiang Xue’s daily life as a couple.

She wanted to make the “Traces of Xue Luo” ID a reality.

Jiang Xue was still admiring the surrounding scenery. Not looking down, her mind at ease, she found the view from the glass walkway quite unique. If it weren’t for the circumstances, it would be a perfect spot for sketching.

But Xiao Luohan’s words immediately brought her attention back, and her eyes lit up. “Okay! I’ll edit it for you! Let’s also record the sunset as a memento!”

Neither of them had any experience making vlogs, only occasionally watching other people’s videos, but fortunately, videos could be edited, keeping only the best parts, unlike livestreams, so there was less pressure during recording.

So Xiao Luohan held her phone, and they slowly walked forward, supporting each other.

Jiang Xue also took out her phone and filmed the view beneath the glass walkway for a long time—she didn’t dare look, but she couldn’t be the only one scared.

“This is perfect for couples, especially those on the verge of taking the next step. Highly recommended,” she even added a “tagline,” then realized her voice was still trembling, not sure if it was because of the excitement of filming a vlog with Xiao Luo, or the lingering fear of heights.

The summer sunset came late. After walking across the glass walkway, they filmed some more footage in the mountains, ate their snacks with the drinks they brought, and then, seeing the sun finally starting to set, bought tickets for the glass walkway again.

Xiao Luohan was about to start recording when Jiang Xue said, “Let me film you first. You just enjoy the scenery, I’ll follow behind.”

Although she didn’t know what Jiang Xue was planning, Xiao Luohan obediently agreed.

She walked forward, holding onto the railing, her pace as steady as before.

After walking for a while, she looked at the setting sun, shielding her eyes with her hand.

“We’re lucky,” she said. “It seems to be a ‘fire cloud’ sunset.”

Jiang Xue instinctively followed her gaze.

A crimson red was spreading from where the sun was setting, and based on her experience, within half an hour, the entire sky would be dyed scarlet.

“Does that mean the weather will be good for the next few days?” she asked. “How does the saying go… ‘A fire cloud sunset brings clear skies tomorrow.'”

“Not necessarily, there might be a typhoon,” Xiao Luohan said with a smile. “Remember to check the weather forecast when we get back.”

Then she lowered her hand and walked towards Jiang Xue. “My turn to film you.”

Jiang Xue didn’t refuse, even handing her phone to Xiao Luohan. “This is more convenient.”

The sunset always attracted more tourists, including photography enthusiasts, some of whom had even come to the mountain specifically for the “fire cloud” forecast.

The glass walkway had limited capacity, so the staff had to ask the earlier visitors to leave to make space for the newcomers.

Although reluctant to leave this scenic spot, Jiang Xue and Xiao Luohan quickened their pace, even filming the “crowd” spectacle.

On their way down the mountain, Jiang Xue continued diligently filming the vlog, her other hand held tightly by Xiao Luohan, who was afraid she would be too focused on filming and not watch where she was going.

“Should we also film dinner?” Jiang Xue asked when they reached the bottom of the mountain.

“No,” Xiao Luohan shook her head decisively.

Perhaps because she was from the royal family, she always felt that eating was a private matter and didn’t want outsiders to know her dietary preferences.

Although there were many food vloggers in this era, she didn’t want a camera filming them while they were eating.

It felt strange and uncomfortable to be watched while eating.

There was also a food street near the hotel, and even before reaching it, the aroma of various foods wafted towards them with the evening breeze.

Worried about getting an upset stomach from street food, and also pressed for time, since they had to discuss the collaboration tomorrow and post the vlog, they tacitly decided to go straight to the hotel’s buffet restaurant, returning to their room after dinner. One edited the video, and the other practiced the guqin.

Since this was their first vlog, Jiang Xue even consulted Xiao Luohan on choosing the footage and background music. After editing the footage, she let Xiao Luohan choose the filters and decorative text, and even the type of blurring for the other people’s faces.

“…Am I being too demanding?” Xiao Luohan asked, seeing that the TXT file Jiang Xue had opened for her notes was already full.

“No, no! More details are better, so I have a clearer idea,” Jiang Xue said, not minding at all. “After making a few more vlogs, I’ll have a better understanding of your preferences and style. If you want higher quality videos, we can also work towards that.”

At 1:00 AM, Yin Yuan, having just lost three ranked games in a row, was preparing to wash up and go to bed when she saw a notification from M-Station.

【Notification: The uploader you’re following, [Traces of Xue Luo], has posted a new video!】

Yin Yuan: ?!

After a few seconds of stunned silence, she quickly reviewed her recent work related to Xiao Luohan, but couldn’t recall any plans for a new video.

Could it be that…

She immediately put aside her “work brain” and excitedly clicked on the notification, going to the video page.

Seeing the prefix 【Travel Vlog】 in the title, Yin Yuan couldn’t help but smile.

It was the famous glass walkway at the nearby scenic area!

It was indeed a good place for couples, although a bit far. She hadn’t expected the two little girls to go there today.

She simultaneously thought “I should have offered them a ride today” and “They must have their reasons for not needing my help,” but in the end, she was glad she hadn’t interfered, otherwise, there might not have been this vlog.

She couldn’t wait to watch it.

The two had clearly already walked across the walkway once, a huge missed opportunity for “CP fans”!

Hearing Jiang Xue’s embarrassed and slightly helpless account of trying to look down, failing miserably, and clinging to Xiao Luo out of fear, Yin Yuan couldn’t imagine how much she would have enjoyed it if this had been filmed.

Throughout the five-minute vlog, she couldn’t stop smiling.

The two girls in the video were wearing ordinary summer clothes, but the color tones and lighting blended perfectly with the surrounding scenery, making them look exceptionally beautiful, their every move radiating youthful energy.

Their interactions in the vlog weren’t frequent, but they were all just right, holding hands, feeding each other, linking arms, all subtle displays of affection.

However, as an outsider, Yin Yuan knew very well that only people with a close relationship could act so naturally.

Like casually brushing the other person’s fingertip with your tongue while feeding them. For a newly formed couple, this was still a bit bold.

Jiang Xue and Xiao Luohan’s relationship had progressed further than she had imagined.

The slight dejection from losing three ranked games in a row was thus healed by this purely sweet vlog. Yin Yuan happily liked, commented, and reposted the video, then put down her phone and, like a little rabbit, hopped to the bathroom to wash up.

To avoid affecting their performance during the collaboration discussion, Jiang Xue and Xiao Luohan didn’t check the feedback on their first vlog the next morning, but quickly packed the things they needed for the international exhibition, leaving the rest of their luggage at the hotel.

Since Cang Ling’s sugar had helped her sleep well, Yin Yuan drove to the hotel early, turned on the air conditioning, and played music they both liked. As soon as Jiang Xue and Xiao Luohan got in the car, they found the environment incredibly comfortable.

Considering Yin Yuan’s social anxiety when she wasn’t working, they tacitly didn’t ask, exchanging a look and then showering her with compliments, making Yin Yuan so happy that she almost wanted to stop the car and buy them treats.

The international exhibition they were attending also opened at 9:00 AM. Since Ms. Silin’s studio wasn’t participating this time, they couldn’t use the staff entrance, so the three obediently waited in line for their tickets to be checked.

“Actually, a few other girls from the studio also got tickets, but they’re responsible for other tasks, so they’re not with you,” Yin Yuan explained, looking at the QR code on her ticket. “And their schedules are on different days.”

“It’s okay, with Yin Jiejie here, we feel at ease,” Xiao Luohan said, her tone more friendly since she was being taken care of.

Yin Yuan, however, felt a little apprehensive because of this. As the queue moved forward, she repeatedly observed Jiang Xue’s expression, and seeing no signs of displeasure or unease, she breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little exasperated.

Show some jealousy!!
