Chapter 1048: Chapter 1050: Small Conflicts Breed Hatred
Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan headed to the amusent park at the Oceanarium with Keke. It was a place filled with fun activities, especially designed for children to play together.
After arriving with Keke, they noticed that most people around were parents with their children. In front of them was a giant spinning wheel made of oilcloth, moving slowly. On this wheel were adorable toys, and many little children were crawling toward the center. Whoever could grab a toy would get to keep it.
However, children being children, even though the wheel turned very slowly, they still got dizzy and kept falling off. Luckily, all around the wheel were very soft, springy cushions to prevent any injuries.
Keke, upon seeing the wheel, wanted to play too. After arriving here, Mu Shanshan and Lin Fei placed Keke on the wheel. Keke quickly began to crawl toward the beloved toys.
However, Keke seed a bit slow and got disoriented by the spinning, heading in the wrong direction before falling onto the cushions below, laughing happily.
This ga cost one yuan per try. After Lin Fei paid the attendant, Keke climbed up again. This ti, she was very clever, moving slowly and keeping her eyes fixed on the toys, inching closer step by step until she finally grabbed a big yellow duck toy.
An ecstatic Keke sat on the wheel, turning back to look for Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan. However, the spinning wheel made her lose her balance, and she bumped into another child, causing both of them to tumble down together.
Keke was thrilled because she held onto the toy, so it beca hers. But before she could enjoy it for long, a large hand snatched the toy away, cursing, "How dare you run into my son! This toy belongs to us now!"
Her toy taken, Keke turned to see a man with a sinister look staring at her. Instantly, tears welled up in Keke’s eyes, and she began to cry.
"Keke!"
Lin Fei and Mu Shanshan hurried over. Mu Shanshan comforted Keke while Lin Fei approached the middle-aged man, asking, "Why did you take my daughter’s toy?"
The middle-aged man had long hair, greasy from being unwashed for a while, and his gaunt face gave him the appearance of a drug addict. He coldly replied, "That little girl is your daughter? Then you should manage your daughter properly! She bumped into my son; otherwise, my son would have grabbed a toy too!"
His loud voice drew the attention of many onlookers.
Lin Fei glanced back at Keke, who was still upset, and said, "This toy isn’t worth much. I’ll give you twenty yuan for it, alright? My daughter is crying, let
buy it and comfort her."
Hearing this, the middle-aged man laughed, "You think money makes you great? Your child is a child, but mine isn’t? Want the toy? Not for sale! No amount of money will make
sell it!"
Seeing this, Lin Fei had no choice but to give up. He turned to Keke and said, "Keke, don’t cry. I’ll buy you an even better one later, alright? Stop crying, okay?"
Keke sobbed but nodded, stopping her tears.
Not wanting any trouble, Mu Shanshan and Lin Fei headed straight for the exit of the Oceanarium.
However, the middle-aged man suddenly shouted, "Hold it right there!" Many spectators, drawn to the commotion, gathered around, eager for entertainnt.
"Is there anything else?" Lin Fei asked.
The middle-aged man sneered, walking up to Lin Fei and pointing at him while dragging his son, saying, "Your daughter seed to have bumped into my son just now. Now my son has a headache. What do you propose we do?"
"Dad, I’m fine."
"Shut up! I say you have a problem, you do! They bumped into you, so they have to pay!" the middle-aged man scolded his son.
People around could see that this middle-aged man was clearly a troublemaker, but they weren’t heroes, just spectators.
Lin Fei frowned; with Keke still upset, he didn’t want any conflict, but the middle-aged man seed relentless, having taken the toy and now seeking money.
"Shanshan, take Keke back to the car. I’ll handle this," Lin Fei said.
Mu Shanshan nodded, trusting Lin Fei completely, though she felt a bit sorry for the middle-aged man. A matter that could have been resolved peacefully, why bully and harass, treating them as timid and easy targets?
Seeing Mu Shanshan leave, the middle-aged man imdiately reached out, trying to grab Mu Shanshan, exclaiming, "Hey, hey, hey! You can’t leave."
However, his half-extended hand was caught by Lin Fei, who smiled and said, "With
here, you think I’d run off?"
The middle-aged man struggled but found that Lin Fei was quite strong. As soon as Lin Fei let go, the man got free.
"Alright then, give
a thousand yuan, and I’ll let this go," the middle-aged man demanded.
"A thousand yuan? Is that enough?" Lin Fei asked.
The middle-aged man, sensing Lin Fei as a "big spender
