Do you want to go to the amusement park?
Nie AnAn paused for a second upon hearing Huo YanXiao's question. Then she quickly recalled hearing on the news that Huo YanXiao was about to invest in a chain amusement park.
Did he want her to go survey it with him?
Besides, even though her grandfather from her previous life loved her dearly, he wasn't able to replace her parents after all. She had never been to an amusement park before.
So Nie AnAn nodded and said, "Okay."
When the weekend came, Nie AnAn had on a white t-shirt and rose-colored shorts for the sake of convenience. Her pale legs looked like they were illuminating underneath her rose-colored shorts.
She wasn't tall, but her proportion was great. Her legs were long and slender. With her hair tied up to a ponytail behind her head, it went from side to side like an actual tail as she trotted around the place.
Huo YanXiao noticed that he was walking too fast for her and purposefully slowed down.
Once they arrived at the amusement park, they immediately realized how crowded it was. It was obvious that this was the first time for both of them. Huo YanXiao looked at the pass in his hand and looked for the merry-go-round, the mildest of all of them, to go with Nie AnAn.
Most of the other visitors were either lovers or parents and their children. Huo YanXiao looked at his sister and wasn't sure where they stood.
Nie AnAn had already ran to the end of the line and waved at him, "Come here, big brother!"
Huo YanXiao noticed that it was mostly the girls who were on the wooden horses with their fathers and boyfriends taking pictures for them on the outside and said, "You go inside. I'll take pictures for you."
Nie AnAn nodded obediently. It so happened that time was up for the previous group, so she entered with the new visitors that were standing in line.
Even when going to the amusement park, Huo YanXiao was still in his business elite outfit. His aura simply did not fit in with all the balloons and stuffed toys around him.
He was video-taping Nie AnAn with his cellphone when an older man next to him asked, "Hey, young man. You have a daughter already? Which one is yours? I cam with my grandson. Do you want the kids to play together afterward?"
Huo YanXiao was still recording so he pointed at the screen.
The old man didn't look too pleased. He looked for a few seconds before he sighed, "You must have gotten married very early. Your daughter is so grown already."
Huo YanXiao, "..."
This was the first time Nie AnAn had been on a merry-go-round, so she was quite excited. She trotted over to where Huo YanXiao was.
She was just about to call him "big brother" when he grabbed on her wrist, avoided the old man, and walked quickly toward the roller coaster.
"Big brother, do you want to go ride the roller coaster? That one you can get on too!" said Nie AnAn.
Huo YanXiao nodded, "Mm."
It was even crowded over there, and someone bumped into Nie AnAn. Huo YanXiao frowned and shot him a piercing look full of killing intent. The man was so frightened that he almost fell and repeatedly apologized to Nie AnAn
Huo YanXiao looked down and saw that the bump didn't injure the girl next to him. He let out a sigh of relief. He reached out his arm, put it around her, and walked forward with her in his arm
a brother! It made her feel paternal love that she had never experienced in the past.
The line for the roller coaster was long. The two of them waited in line and shuffled forward with the rest of the people.
A little boy in front of them, seeing someone else with a cotton candy, shook his dad's arm and said, 'Daddy, I want cotton candy!"
His father frowned and said, "You are already 9 years old. Those are for little kids!"
Huo YanXiao followed the little boy's look and saw a little girl around 5-6 years old, in her pastel-colored princess outfit, eating a cotton candy that was bigger than her head.
For some reason, he thought about Nie AnAn and asked the girl standing next to her, "AnAn, do you want cotton candy?"
Nie AnAn, too, overhead the conversation between the father and son. She looked up at him with her limpid eyes and said in the most serious tone, "Big brother, I am already 20 years old."
In front of them, the father and son duo had also overheard their conversation. They turned around.
The little boy, in an accusatory tone said, "Dad, her brother was going to get the 20-year-old big sister a cotton candy! I am only 9. Why can't I have one?"
The father looked the two of them up and down and said in a low voice, "It's not the same."
"How's it not the same? I am still a baby!" said the little boy, feeling unjust.
The man was already getting impatient. He yanked the boy over and said, "They are brother and sister, and we are father and son."
The boy had no idea what the difference was.
Behind them, Huo YanXiao frowned.
