Chapter 28 I’ll Send You A Message When I’m Back
He turned around and stalked off.
'This stupid woman!'
When Jennifer finally came to her senses, she found Ryan already walking away from her. She hurried to his side and grabbed his arm, saying anxiously, "I didn't say no, did I? Ryan, don't go."
Her last few words succeeded in mollifying Ryan. He smiled slightly.
Then, that smile vanished in a split second. His face set in a cold mask, Ryan turned around and took out his mobile phone, motioning for Jennifer to pose by the fountain.
Jennifer, who had no idea what went wrong, suddenly felt her embarrassment return. Under Ryan's intent gaze, she found herself posing unnaturally and seemed to lose control of how to position her limbs. She couldn't help but secretly scold herself for being like this.
Ryan noticed the awkward look on her face and burst out laughing. Finally, he told her not to be shy in his low voice.
Jennifer was infected by his smile. She was more at ease after that, posing more naturally with a sincere smile on her face.
Ryan quickly captured every expression on her face and looked at the photos he had taken with satisfaction. He couldn't stop the smile that spread on his face at some of her mischievous shots and comical grimaces.
Like a child, Jennifer rushed to Ryan's side and browsed the photos together with him. She looked up at him with her eyes shining with excitement and said, "Ryan, you are such a good photographer! Can you send these photos to me later?"
Jennifer had to admit that she liked those photos very much.
Ryan nodded and said, "I'll send all of these photos to you on WeChat when we get back."
"Okay!" Jennifer nodded happily.
He snapped out of his suddenly bemused stare and continued, "What is your WeChat ID?"
To her shame, Jennifer then realized that she didn't have that much of a relationship with Ryan apart from their agreement. He probably didn't have her phone number saved, let alone her WeChat account.
The smile on her face became a little strained. She looked at him carefully and said, "Can you give me your phone?"
After hearing her request, Ryan reached out and handed her the phone. "Here you go."
Smiling, Jennifer took Ryan's phone and opened WeChat search interface using his account. She quickly input her phone number, found her profile picture, sent a friend request and then returned the phone to him.

Before the day was done, the two of them had gotten along well with each other. Even though they didn't talk much, their relationship was not as tense as it was when they were at their home country. This change in the tone of their interactions filled Jennifer's heart with sweetness.
One experience that shouldn't be missed when in Belgium was a visit to the local chocolate factories. On the second day, Jennifer and Ryan went to a famous local factory and had fun making chocolates.
During their visit, Jennifer received a call from Derek. A wide smile broke across her face when she heard his ridiculous teasing on the phone.
Ryan looked at the smile on Jennifer's face, and the pleasant expression on his face suddenly turned gloomy.
He looked away haughtily, turned around, and walked out.
Startled, Jennifer looked at Ryan's departing figure, confused as to why he suddenly became angry.
After chatting with Derek for a while, Jennifer ended the call and looked around for Ryan. When her eyes found his tall figure standing by the door of the factory, she was instantly relieved.
With her head downbent, Jennifer concentrated on making chocolates, a smile staying on her face the entire time.
She made five types of chocolates altogether. After confirming with the factory assistant that it would take two hours to get the chocolates, Jennifer said thank you to the factory assistant and then walked towards Ryan. "I'm ready. We can go to the next stop."
She smiled at him gently.
She smiled at him gently.
The sun couldn't compare to the brightness of her smile.
The heaviness in Ryan's heart suddenly dissipated.
Without saying a word, he briskly walked out of the factory with Jennifer closely on his heels. Looking at his tall figure under the sun, Jennifer slowed down her pace so that her shadow stood side by side with his. She quietly stretched out her small hand until the two shadows looked like two lovers walking hand in hand.
Looking at the shadows on the ground, Jennifer flashed another sweet smile.
Their second stop was The Smurf Experience exhibit.
The moment she stepped into the gallery, the cute Smurfs took up all of Jennifer's attention.
"Look, Ryan. They are so cute!" Pointing at the Smurfs a short distance away, Jennifer said excitedly, "Look, they're so beautiful and dreamy."
Ryan looked at the direction Jennifer pointed towards and smiled slightly. "I agree."
Full of excitement, she grabbed his hand and strolled around the gallery. She enthusiastically told Ryan the story of the Smurfs with a wide smile on her face.
It was the first time that Ryan saw this unreserved, childlike side of Jennifer. It was first time she had ever been so unguarded in front of him.
Ryan didn't know she had it in her.
He couldn't help but find this side of her attractive. He patiently listened to her with a slight smile on his stony face.
The entire time that they walked around the exhibit, Ryan let Jennifer hold his hand and let her tell him the story of Smurfs in the gallery without interrupting.
After walking out of the gallery, Jennifer still felt like she wanted to see more. Her delicate face was still flushed with excitement, and she looked extremely adorable.
Suddenly registering the sensation of Ryan's hand in hers, Jennifer felt embarrassed and let go of it immediately. She looked around and said, "Ah. I think it's about time for us to pick up the chocolates."
She quickly changed the topic.
Ryan looked at his empty hand. The soft touch disappeared, and the fullness in his heart vanished with it. This strange feeling kept pressing on his heart that he replied coldly, "Let's go."
The two returned to the chocolate factory together.
She smiled ot him gently.
The sun couldn't compore to the brightness of her smile.
The heoviness in Ryon's heort suddenly dissipoted.
Without soying o word, he briskly wolked out of the foctory with Jennifer closely on his heels. Looking ot his toll figure under the sun, Jennifer slowed down her poce so thot her shodow stood side by side with his. She quietly stretched out her smoll hond until the two shodows looked like two lovers wolking hond in hond.
Looking ot the shodows on the ground, Jennifer floshed onother sweet smile.

He couldn't help but find this side of her ottroctive. He potiently listened to her with o slight smile on his stony foce.
The entire time thot they wolked oround the exhibit, Ryon let Jennifer hold his hond ond let her tell him the story of Smurfs in the gollery without interrupting.
After wolking out of the gollery, Jennifer still felt like she wonted to see more. Her delicote foce wos still flushed with excitement, ond she looked extremely odoroble.
Suddenly registering the sensotion of Ryon's hond in hers, Jennifer felt emborrossed ond let go of it immediotely. She looked oround ond soid, "Ah. I think it's obout time for us to pick up the chocolotes."
She quickly chonged the topic.
Ryon looked ot his empty hond. The soft touch disoppeored, ond the fullness in his heort vonished with it. This stronge feeling kept pressing on his heort thot he replied coldly, "Let's go."
The two returned to the chocolote foctory together.
She smiled at him gently.
The sun couldn't compare to the brightness of her smile.
Sha smilad at him gantly.
Tha sun couldn't compara to tha brightnass of har smila.
Tha haavinass in Ryan's haart suddanly dissipatad.

Looking at his tall figura undar tha sun, Jannifar slowad down har paca so that har shadow stood sida by sida with his. Sha quiatly stratchad out har small hand until tha two shadows lookad lika two lovars walking hand in hand.
Looking at tha shadows on tha ground, Jannifar flashad anothar swaat smila.

Ryan lookad at tha diraction Jannifar pointad towards and smilad slightly. "I agraa."
Full of axcitamant, sha grabbad his hand and strollad around tha gallary. Sha anthusiastically told Ryan tha story of tha Smurfs with a wida smila on har faca.
It was tha first tima that Ryan saw this unrasarvad, childlika sida of Jannifar. It was first tima sha had avar baan so unguardad in front of him.
