TGLC Chapter 19.4

She asked Zhuzhu: “Do you want to go eat?”

Zhuzhu was still reluctant to leave and wanted to play. She pulled Xie Qingyu’s skirt with one hand and acted coquettishly: “Mom, let’s play a little longer. Let’s play a little longer before we leave.”

“Look at how long we’ve been waiting in line today. If we don’t have enough fun, it would be a waste of our time.”

Xie Qingyu freed her skirt from her little hands and said, “How could it be in vain? Mommy’s legs are almost broken from walking this afternoon.”

Fortunately, she wasn’t wearing high heels.

Little Zhuzhu didn’t think that there was anything wrong with her at all. Instead, she confidently said, “This shows that you should exercise more, Mom. Look at Aunt Yan, she’s not like you, complaining about being tired all day long.”

Xie Qingyu: “…”

Yan Zhen smiled helplessly and said, “It’s time to prepare to go back.”

In the afternoon, Zhuzhu mainly played with her father. Zhuzhu and her father had already established a deep friendship, so when she heard her mother’s words, she immediately rushed to find her father, ran very fast, and said, “Dad, let’s play for a while and then go back.”

Then she turned around and said, “Mom, if you are hungry, you can go eat first. You don’t have to wait for me and Dad.”

Duan Zihui saw that Zhuzhu was reluctant to leave, so he picked her up and asked with a smile, “How long do you want to play?”

Zhuzhu: “Just a little while.”

Duan Zihui wasn’t hungry. Since his daughter said it would take a while, Duan Zihui, who didn’t know Zhuzhu well, assumed it really was just a little while and agreed, “Okay.”

Chongchong didn’t want to leave either, so he pulled his father to follow.

They went to SimCity again, where they were role-playing.

The amusement park closed at 8 o’clock. Seeing that the child was reluctant to leave, Xie Qingyu also gave in. Anyway, when 8 o’clock came, she had to leave even if she didn’t want to.

While the children were playing, she leaned over and sat down on a bench nearby, watching them play salespersons and drivers with other children…

This was quite interesting. Zhuzhu and the others played with it for quite a long time.

When they came out, it was already seven forty.

There were still twenty minutes until 8 p.m.

There were people sitting on the carousel next to them, and lively music was playing.

Zhuzhu wanted to ride the carousel again. Seeing her mother lazily sitting on the bench, she immediately ran over happily and said excitedly, “Mom, let’s go ride the carousel, okay?”

Xie Qingyu looked up at her and asked, “Aren’t you tired?”

Zhuzhu was so excited: “We’ll leave after riding the carousel.”

I don’t believe you.

But she took out her phone to check the time; it was almost time to go.

Even if she didn’t want to leave, she probably had no choice.

Xie Qingyu resigned herself to her fate and, dragging her slightly exhausted body, accompanied Zhuzhu to ride the carousel.

When they arrived, the carousel had just stopped. 

Zhuzhu couldn’t wait to get on.

Xie Qingyu carried the child onto it and sat down behind her.

Chongchong also ran over and sat down, accompanied by Yan Zhen.

Duan Zihui and Xu Yi were walking behind. There was a distance between the two men, and they were not talking.

After a while, the carousel started, and the colorful lights on it began to move.

Amid the lovely music, Xie Qingyu’s long dress fluttered, and her face looked gentle.

There was a happy smile on Zhuzhu’s little face.

The sky was high, the stars were shining brightly, and not far away, he could hear the delighted cheers of children. It turned out to be a nearby musical fountain that suddenly spurted out colorful streams of water, which spread in the air. It was a magnificent sight.

Duan Zihui looked at the mother and daughter on the carousel, and suddenly, he felt that the night had never been so beautiful.
