Not far away from the lake side house, two kids are walking hand in hand.
"My daddy specially made it fow me." The small kid looked at the big kid and smiled.
"Really?!" De Longjun asked.
"Yes." She said excitedly. "Oh! It's there. Look.....!" She pointed out.
De Longjun followed her fingers and found a small playground.
There were kids playing in the swings, slides, seesaw, trampoline and jungle gym. Some of them were guests from wedding. There were locals there too. Some of them were mainly onlookers.
"Your father made it?" Sitting under a tree, he asked.
"Yes. Daddy asked what yingying wanted in her biwtday one and yingying said 'I want a pwaygwond.' then he made it fow Yingying to pway."
"Oh. Is it? Then why are there other kids in your playground?"
"Yingying doesn't want to pway alone. Yingying want evewyone."
"Is it?"
"Also..." She continued. "Daddy and mommy said: baby, shawing is cawing. If you shawe your happiness with othews, you will get mowe happy. Yingying is a gwud baby. She would shwe her happiness with all the pweepil."
"Okay, don't stand too much. Come and sit beside me." De Longjun patted beside his seat and she sat beside him.
"So.. big bwothew Jun! What is youw age?" She asked.
"I am twelve. And also don't call me that."
"What?"
"Big brother Jun."
"But gwandpa's told me to call that. Yingying is a gwud baby. I would obay eldews."
"But I don't like it."
"Twen what should I call you?"
"You can call my name."
"De Longjun?"
"Yes. De Longjun."
"No! I can't call you that!!"
"Why?! That's my name."
"Yingying is not stuwpid. Okay! Yingying is only two, but I can count up to fifty. We are....."
She began to count with her fingers. "Two... Twee... Fow... Twelve..." She showed both her palms to De Longjun.
"Yingying is two and De Longjun is twelve. You are ten yeaws owder than me. So my daddy said if anybody is owde than me, and if they awe stawnchers I should call them unkwl ow aunti. You awe a male. So I should call you unkwl."
"WHAT!I am no uncle." De Longjun reprimanded her, embarrassed.
"No, if you won't let me call big brother Jun, I would call you unkwl."
"NO!!"
"Unkwl! Unkwl! Unkwl!" She began to call him continuously.
He covered his ears with his hand.
Zan Guiying goes near his ear and began call him 'uncle' repeatedly.
At last...
"Okay..!!! Okay...!!! I concede defeat." De Longjun said.
Zan Guiying giggled. "Now I won't call you unkwl..... Okay..... Unkwl?!?!"
"You....." De Longjun called after her.
She jumped from her seat and ran towards trampoline.
"You can't catch me .... I am fast." Giggling, she reached beside the trampoline.
"Big brother Jun.... I am going to pway up and down. Aw you cwomin wit me?"
"No. You should go. I would watch over you."
Hearing this Zan Guiying reached the trampoline and began to jump. She began to wave at him calling 'big brother Jun' and he smiled at her everytime and waved back.
Whenever he smiles she saw his dimples, she blushed.
'Big bwothew Jun is weally cute.' She thought.

It's been sometime they were playing. Zan Guiying changed from one place to another.
She was so happy. Even though she couldn't play in slide fearing her dress would get ruined.
At last she reached in jungle gym secton and began to climb in it. But her hanfu dress is disturbing her.
Seeing her in gym section, De Longjun came near the railing and stood beside it. Fearing it could cause her and accident. Standing there, he saw an ice cream truck some what far away."Do you want ice cream?" He asked.
"I can eat one. Daddy allowed me to eat sweets today."
"Okay. Then I would get one for you."
"Do you have moni?"
"Yes. I have." Showing his pockets he said. "Stay here. Okay.?!?"
"Okay!" She gave him a thumbs up. Seeing that he began to walk towards icecream truck.
At that time a group of kids came to play in there. That kids began to push all the kids around jungle gym and said loudly to them.
"This is our place. Nobody would get to play in gym. If anybody try to break our law, he or she would cry in here."
Hearing this, kids began to move from that place.
But Zan Guiying was too much immersed in playing that she couldn't hear it.
"Hey!! Didn't you hear it? Scram!!!" The leader from that group saw yingying and pushed her.
De Longjun, who was coming back from the ice cream truck, has been seeing this commotion from far. Hearing their words, he thought of Zan Guiying who was playing there and bagan to run.
When he reached there, he saw one kid pushing Zan Guiying.
"Yingying.....!!!" He called her and jumped towards her.
Zan Guiying, who was falling closed her eyes and covered her face. But the pain she was expecting didn't come.
She opened her eyes. A chest came to her view and hands are hugging her.
"Big bwothew Jun!!!!" She panicked and called out his name.
He opened his eyes.
"Are you okay?" She asked.
He stood up taking her in his arm and looked at her head to toe.
"You are not hurt?!?! Are you?" He enquired with his worried eyes.
"No... But you....." She began to sob. "You got huwt." She pointed her tiny fingers towards his elbow.
He looked at his elbow. It was scratched. Small droplets of blood showed around it.
"I am sowwy.... Because of yingying you gwot huwt... I am sowwy....." She continued to sob.
"No!! It's not like that yingying..." He began to console her.
"It's their fault." He looked at those kids angrily.
The kids felt the air getting colder. And his pitch black eyes getting more fierce. They felt so afraid....
This battle was stopped by a sudden voice.
"Hey... What is happening here?!"
The kids looked.
It was the newlyweds and two grandpas.
