"Xiao Han… wait, is it okay if I call you, Xiao Han?" Su Xiaofei asked the young boy who was seated between her and Xi Qian in the backseat, while Lu Qingfeng took the front passenger seat next to Nine. Xi Qian seed to have taken a liking to the white persian cat and played with it.
"En, it's fine if I can call you Fei Jie." Qiao Yuhan replied with a wide smile. The boy seed to like her very much, and Su Xiaofei wondered if it was because of their blood relation.
"Then, it's a deal, little guy!"
Fei Jie. Even in their previous life, Qiao Yuhan called her this. Whenever he ca ho from school, he would imdiately go straight to the private villa where she was staying. They would talk about all the things he'd done while he was away and what was happening outside while Su Xiaofei was bedridden, not able to walk on her own after Chen Hao crippled her leg.
Such mories were still clear in Su Xiaofei's mind. At the sunset of her life, Qiao Yuhan's company was a welcoming warmth that helped her ease the pain.
"So, is this your first ti in Qiying City?" She asked. The Qiao family was originally from Shenjing, so she wasn't expecting them to be here.
"En. Dad and Mom said that we could go to Questpark together, but since they're too busy with work, I already expected that our visit would be cancelled. Thank you for accompanying today." The young boy replied, a little sad that his parents weren't able to co with him to the amusent park today.
"But that's okay. I know that they are both working hard for my sake." He forced himself to smile, but Su Xiaofei knew better.
When they arrived at Questpark, it was just in ti because the carnival had just been set up by the managent. There was a huge Ferris wheel, roller coasters and several tents for circus performances had been set up and ca to life.
Lu Qingfeng went to the admission booth and bought their tickets, while Qiao Yuhan's eyes were looking everywhere. He had never been to any amusent park or carnival like this before. He was standing next to Su Xiaofei, holding her hand, as the two young won checked the pamphlet given to them and discussed which one they should check out first.
Su Xiaofei took a whiff of the carnival food, slling all sorts of sweets and barbecued at. The strong familiar scent of popcorn also reached her nose.
The sll brought her back to her earlier days with Lu Qingfeng, when the two of them sneaked away from their bodyguards and decided to go to Questpark on their own. It was such an enjoyable and endearing mory for her.
"Here are the tickets. Let's go before people start to crowd." Lu Qingfeng passed them their tickets, and they stood in line at the entrance, waiting patiently to receive a bracelet that would allow them to try any rides they wanted without limit.
Their little group walked through the ga booths, where people could win certain toys and gifts if they win a ga.
"Look, Xiao Han. Do you know how to play the ring-a-bottle ga?" Su Xiaofei asked. "If you win, you can get a goldfish as a prize."
Qiao Yuhan's eyes imdiately lit up.
"Fei Jie! I want to try! Wanna try!"
Xi Qian chuckled and whispered to Su Xiaofei, telling her that she would go buy sothing to eat. Thankfully, Snowbell didn't co with them inside, or he would have pounced on the small container of the stall that housed a school of goldfish.
Lu Qingfeng ca behind Su Xiaofei and Qiao Yuhan, passing the boy a few bucks he could use to pay the stall owner.
"I'll play!" The boy grinned at the old man who owned the stall.
"Okay, little guy. You need to get three rings around the bottles in order to get a fish, but if you manage to score all five rings, you get an extra prize."
"Then give it to !" He exclaid.
He tossed the first ring, but it only bounced off the bottle before falling to the ground. He slumped his shoulders a little, upset that he lost the chance to get the special prize.
Well, he still had four rings. He still had a chance to win a fish at least.
However, his hopes went down the drain when all of his five rings missed the bottle.
Su Xiaofei couldn't help but pity him. She pulled out a few bucks from her pocket and placed it in front of the store owner.
"Can I try? My little brother really wants one." She explained.
"Ah, what a lucky brother you've got here." The old man chuckled, giving Su Xiaofei her own set of rings to play. "Sa rules, missy. You get three rings, the fish is yours. Get five, then I'll add a special prize."
When Xi Qian returned after buying so kettle corn she could snack on, she found Qiao Yuhan holding a small fishbowl with a pair of goldfish in it. His smile was wider than usual as his eyes glimred with joy.
"Wow, Xiao Han. So lucky! Did you win on your first try? I shouldn't have left! I missed seeing you win." She asked the boy, but Qiao Yuhan shook his head.
"Look, Qian Jie! Fei Jie won these goldfish." Qiao Yuhan bead at her. He wasn't upset anymore since Su Xiaofei had won him the goldfish.
"Really?" Xi Qian blinked and gave her best friend a look.
Su Xiaofei only gave her a flirty wink as she stood next to Lu Qingfeng.
"Then, that's great. You have to really take care of them though, or else they would beco Snowbell's lunch or dinner."
Qiao Yuhan's eyes widened.. He had almost forgotten that he had a mischievous cat waiting for him at ho.
