Chapter 200 Rachel Got Angry


    There were different kinds of snacks and drinks in this ce.


    Rachel and Jack bought two bottles of fresh juice. They then walked along the path until they reached


    the center of the ancient city.


    Most old cultural buildings and night markets could be found in this ce.


    Although those buildings were not so magnificent, they looked huge in the dark. But it was hard to see


    their real shape clearly, so Rachel had to stop and peer from a distance.


    Since it was already dark, they couldn''t enter any of the buildings anymore. They could only see them


    from the outside.


    The streetmps stood quietly at the intersection. Behind them, there were big ancient houses that


    looked so solemn. Looking at their closed doors gave someone a feeling that so many histories were


    sealed inside each house.


    Actually, walking all the way down there wasn''t much exciting. There was nothing except quietness in


    the surroundings.


    But if you looked up, you could see the fireworks illuminating the sky in different charming colors.


    Rachel seemed to be enjoying this kind of atmosphere. Without saying anything, she and Jack just


    walked hand in hand quietly.


    They walked around the ce in silence. Although it was dark and Rachel couldn''t see anything


    beautiful, she couldn''t help imagining how attractive thendscape around them was.


    But why was Jack also silent? After quite a while, Rachel was beginning to feel bored. They had


    already walked hand in hand halfway, but Jack hadn''t said a word still.


    She wondered what was going on in his mind.


    Getting curious, she looked up to him only to find out that his face was expressionless. She tried to pull


    him and walked a few steps aside. To her surprise, Jack had no objections at all. He obediently


    followed her without saying anything.

    Rachel stopped walking and thought for a while. Then she turned around and walked back, but he still


    followed. She spected that he probably didn''t know where to go.


    Having this thought, Rachel held his hand and wandered around. She couldn''t help thinking, ''Is he


    bewitched or something?''


    She led Jack around the ancient houses, and he still followed her lead.


    When she couldn''t take it anymore, she stopped walking and looked at him . She pulled his arm


    nervously, and called in a low voice, "Jack?"


    Unfortunately, Jack didn''t respond.


    Rachel started to feel scared.


    Seeing him like a piece of wood sent chills down her spine. She pulled his arm gently again and called


    in a louder voice, "Jack?"


    Jack turned around slowly and looked at her with his deep-set eyes. He was wearing a stiff expression


    on his face.


    Rachel''s face suddenly turned pale. She kept convincing herself that ghosts were not real.


    But she couldn''t help thinking that Jack was being haunted by a ghost.


    "Jack?"


    It was so quiet and dark because the fireworks had already stopped.


    The only thing that was giving them the light was the streetmps. All of a sudden, a gust of cold wind


    blew.


    Jack was still staring at her expressionlessly, with his emotionless eyes. Rachel already wanted to cry


    because of fear as she said to him, "Hey... don''t scare me..."


    But before she could finish her words, Jack burst intoughter.


    His poker face vanished in an instant. As heughed, his eyes were shining like bright stars.


    Apparently, he wascent about sessfully pranking her.


    Jack remained quiet all the time because he didn''t want to ruin the atmosphere of the ce. But


    Rachel wasn''t aware that all his attention was only focused on her.


    When he noticed that Rachel began to look restless, dragging him here and there, he thought of


    teasing her. He acted like he was bewitched by something and just followed her obediently no matter


    where she took him.


    He wanted to scare her on purpose and he seeded in frightening her.


    Looking at her silly face, Jack found her cute, so he couldn''t help pinching her cheek.


    Rachel, who was in a daze, only came back to her senses when she felt Jack''s pinch. When he


    released his hand and turned around to leave her alone, she came to realize that he was scaring her


    intentionally.


    All of a sudden, she boiled up in anger. She walked hurriedly past him, leaving him behind.


    Jack immediately ran after her. When he was able to catch up to her, he called in a whisper, "Rachel?"


    When Rachel just ignored him, he realized that he went overboard. He apologized to her many times,


    but she didn''t respond.


    Rachel''s face was all dark. No matter what Jack said, it seemed that she had already made up her


    mind not to talk to him. As he started to feel anxious, he held her hand, begged her, and coaxed her.


    Jack went too far this time, and he regretted it a lot. He hadn''t realized how funny he looked now.


    If his friends and employees were only to see him, they would definitelyugh at him.


    Rachel was really shocked. Not only because of Jack''s behavior earlier but also by those conjectures


    she had about the ce.


    So when she found out that Jack was only making fun of her, she was pissed. She was already scared


    to death. How could Jack still y a joke on her? It was unforgivable.


    Along the way, Jack kept on apologizing to Rachel. He tried to sound and look pitiful, but he failed to


    get any sign of forgiveness from her.


    Now, he felt bad in ruining the moment.


    Well, he only deserved it.


    Jack heaved a deep sigh. This time, he felt really embarrassed.


    He continued to follow her like a rogue, begging, and pleading. He was hoping that she could cool


    down a little bit and forgive him.


    All of a sudden, he grabbed Rachel''s arm abruptly. She almost fell, but Jack didn''t notice it because he


    was only holding her tightly. Looking into his face, Rachel couldn''t helpughing secretly.


    Her anger dissipated at Jack''s efforts to appease her. She didn''t expect that he could swallow his pride


    just to ask for her forgiveness.


    Actually, she deliberately ignored him and walked away with a straight face to let him know that she


    was really angry. But it did surprise her that Jack didn''t stop begging for her forgiveness.


    And now, Jack grabbed her all of a sudden to stop her from going away.


    Rachel struggled for a while, pretending to be still angry. She pushed him and said, "Hey! Jack, are you


    not done yet?"


    He held her in his arms tightly and asked with a smile, "Done of what? I don''t understand you."


    "Let me go," Rachel said firmly.


    "No. If I let you go, you still won''t talk to me."


    Rachel asked, "Is that why you''re doing this?"


    Jack replied innocently, "I''m not trying to be a rogue. I just want a hug from you."


    Rachel couldn''t help wondering if he really needed to hold her this way. He was hugging her like a bear.


    "Get off me. You are so heavy," sheined.


    Perhaps Jack was really brazen. Despite herints, he continued to hold Rachel tightly as if afraid


    that she would escape.


    While still struggling to get free from his embrace, Rachel burst intoughter. As her waist wasn''t that


    strong, she almost fell into the ground. Fortunately, Jack was still holding her tight.


    Finally, Jack let go of her. Sheined again, "Stop it, Jack. I really can''t take it anymore. You are


    too heavy."


    He smiled and asked, "Are you still angry with me?"


    Looking at his face, Rachel didn''t know whether tough or to continue pretending to be angry.


    Eventually, she decided to scold him with a little hint of anger, "You''re such a rascal!"


    Jack hurriedly kissed her several times.


    Rachel tried to push him away but failed.


    She was worried that someone might see them this way. She was shy and angry at the same time. To


    stop Jack from kissing her, she opened her mouth and bit his lower lip.


    Jack growled in a low voice. Since Rachel didn''t bite him hard, it wasn''t painful at all. Instead, he found


    it amusing.


    He held her tighter andughed, "Ha-ha! Now, you''re acting like a puppy."


    Since she couldn''t get rid of him, Rachel stamped on his feet and said, "And you are trying to tame this


    puppy, aren''t you?"


    Jack looked at her eyes and answered seriously, "Yes, I am working on taming this puppy."


    After struggling for a while, Rachel became sweaty. Although the temperature was not so high, she felt


    ufortable as she got wet with sweat.


    So she pointed a finger to him and said, "Stop teasing me anymore, or else I will really be angry."


    With a sullen face, Jack raised his hand to touch his nose. "I was just kidding."


    Rachel nced at him angrily and said, "Your joke almost killed me."


    For Jack, girls were usually timid. So, he had thought that Rachel would jump into his arms when he


    scared her. He didn''t expect that she would turn around and leave angrily.


    Because of that, he promised not to defend himself anymore since it was all his fault.


    Rachel''s heart was still fluttering. She was really startled when Jack stared at him with unblinking


    eyes.
