Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 305

The cruise ship was already driven far enough making the brilliantly illuminated JA City look dimmer and dimmer. It would not be a laughing matter to swim such a long distance just to reach the shore.

Not to mention that the water was getting colder because the season had just turned into autumn.

"Johnny, could you please stop being mad?" Carla shouted at Johnny without waiting for Terence's reply. "Who would want to bet with you? Why should we agree? Would this bet even mean anything?

I will never date you even if you win this bet. What would you do then?" Carla kept on asking a bunch of questions in an attempt to stop Johnny.

'This is childish!

He is simply acting childish!

Damn it! Just dive into the water if you really want to. Nobody cares! Why the hell should Terence agree to a bet with you?' Carla thought in her head angrily.

Terence gently smiled at Carla and placed the cloak that he got from Rainer around her shoulders. "Carla, I do not mind taking him on if he would insist on gambling with me."

"No way! The water is so cold and you just recovered from everything. No, no, no, you cannot do this," Carla strongly insisted. Just standing there, she could already feel the chill from the cold wind. The icy waters would be undoubtedly more unbearable than the chill from the wind.

Terence was only wearing a thin shirt at the moment. Rainer, who was standing not far from them, was holding Terence's overcoat in his hand. He was also trying to talk Terence out of the bet.

"Miss Carla is right, Mr. Terence. You should take care of your body. You don't have to agree to this bet. If Mr. Nicholas heard that you agreed to swim in the icy water in such a cold day, both Nathan and I would be surely scolded," said Rainer to him pleadingly.

"When did our Mr. Terence become so delicate? Can't you decide on your own whether or not to accept my challenge, Mr. Terence?" Johnny sneered at Terence when he heard what Carla and Rainer said.

"Shut your mouth, Johnny!" Carla glared and shouted at Johnny as soon as she heard his words.

She kept on stopping them because Terence just recovered. The cold water was surely more than he could stand.

Besides, it was really unnecessary for them to do such a childish bet because both of them were no longer teenagers anymore.

"You only want to challenge us, don't you? Can we just change the bet? The water is too cold. What if I become your rival instead?" Carla asked him suddenly.

Someone tapped Carla's shoulder as soon as she was finished with her words. She turned around and saw Terence's bright smile. "Carla, this bet is between men. You should just sit there and watch," said Terence.

Rainer was thinking that Carla had just underestimated Terence. Why would she offer herself as Terence's replacement? Rainer chuckled and then said, "That is a nice proposal, Miss Carla. However, you can still protect Mr. Terence without sacrificing yourself. Let's think of another way rather than swim in the cold water."

"Alright, then. What do you propose we doing instead, Carla? But the loser has to dive into the water then swim around the cruise ship. It's not that hard, really," Johnny said while looking at Carla and Terence.

When he heard what Johnny said, Terence turned to Carla and said, "Carla, what do you want me to do? It is all up to you."

Julissa was standing near them. While watching Carla and Terence, she gnawed at her lips with envy.

She was so envious of Carla. 'How could she be so popular among the boys? Why is she always surrounded by good men?' Julissa wondered.

After a little while, the people on the deck moved into the cabin.

The cruise offered everything one would want inside a ship. It also had a competition arena.

However, Carla was still at a loss. She couldn't decide on what challenge they should take on for the bet.

She scratched her head and then said, "Um...would you like to play a couple rounds of mahjong? Or how about playing some card game?"

Both Terence and Johnny stared at her glumly. She herself knew that mahjong and cards were awful choices. She pondered for a little while and then said again, "How about some number games then? How about the Skipping Seven?"

After hearing Carla's last suggestion, Rainer said to her in a low voice, "Miss Carla, I bet they can both count to ten thousand without making any mistake. I think you should give them something harder than that."

At that moment, Julissa walked over to them. She looked at Terence and worked up the nerve to speak to him, "I have an idea.

Since you both like Carla, how about you two play a guessing game? I mean let's find some women who are the same size as Carla. Then you two will try and find her among them with your eyes blindfolded. The winner will be the one who finds her faster. What do you think?"

There were enough girls on the ship for the game.

Julissa had her own ulterior motive for suggesting the game.

By playing the game, she would get the chance to become a little closer to Terence.
