Chapter 169 I'm scared
Chapter 169 I'm scared
I went to visit Zheng Song after lunch, and it was less than three o'clock in the afternoon when we finished our chat.
Xu Mingyuan had not brought Xiao Yangzhi to Jiangcheng many times. She had only been to the company in the development zone once, and when she first started setting up a stall to earn a living, she went to the farmers' market in the suburbs of Jiangcheng twice. None of those visits could be considered as visits.
Since it was still early, I thought of taking Xiao Yangzhi out for a walk.
"Have you ever been to an amusement park?" Xu Mingyuan asked.
"I've been there." Yang Zhi nodded.
"Really? When?"
"Four years ago, when I was in sixth grade, my uncle took me to play bumper cars."
"In Nanxi?"
"Well, yes."
"What's there to do in that shabby place of Nanxi? Come on, I'll take you to the amusement park in Jiangcheng."
At Xu Mingyuan's order, Xiao Yangzhi had no choice but to follow behind with her bag on her back.
Since the beginning of the millennium, various amusement parks have sprung up and with huge capital investments, there are three large amusement parks in Jiangcheng alone.
Xu Mingyuan didn't think twice and went straight to Jiangcheng Happy Valley, which opened last year. But when he arrived, he couldn't even park his car. He turned for a long time before the staff arranged for him to stop.
"Xiao Yangzhi, what do you think are the differences between Jiangcheng and Nanxi?" Xu Mingyuan asked casually.
"Well... there's no difference, just that there are more cars, more people, and taller buildings." Yang Zhi replied in a low voice.
"Hey, your summary is quite accurate. In fact, no matter where you are, you stay in a fixed circle. There is really no difference." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.
"hey-hey……"
Yang Zhi, who was praised, could only smile foolishly.
But although Jiangcheng is nice, she still prefers the small town of Nanxi, where she had her happiest times and deepest memories. It is not as unfamiliar as here.
There were a lot of people during the National Day holiday, including parents with their children, young couples, and people coming in groups to play. Xu Mingyuan felt his scalp tingling and regretted bringing her to the newly opened Happy Valley.
But since I was already here, I could only buy a ticket and go in.
"Follow me closely, don't get lost."
"Uh-huh."
Yang Zhi nodded hurriedly, held his hand with her cold little hand, and hugged him tightly.
"You don't have to get so close. Just don't touch anyone."
Xu Mingyuan twitched his arm slightly.
Although Xiao Yangzhi's little pigeon is also small, you can always feel that it is a little different when walking around.
"Oh……"
Yang Zhi's cheeks turned slightly red and she moved a little further away.
They met a Happy Valley-themed makeup artist who was doing makeup for the children. Xu Mingyuan saw that the ticket included the project, so he asked Xiao Yangzhi to have some makeup as well.
"Brother, do you want to put on makeup too?"
"Of course not. These are things that children and little girls draw."
"I……"
"Go quickly, or I'll beat you up if you dawdle any longer."
Under Xu Mingyuan's pressure, little Yang Zhi had no choice but to line up with a group of children.
Xiao Yangzhi has never worn makeup and rarely uses skin care products. She only applies some vanishing cream in the winter.
But her skin is really good, without acne, and as white as jade, even Tao Shuxin is envious of her.
Finally, it was Xiao Yangzhi's turn. At her strong request, the makeup artist only drew some small stars and hearts under her eyes with an orange pen.
This added a touch of warmth to the cold-faced little Yang Zhi.
"Hey, beautiful, really beautiful, don't move, I'll take a picture of you."
"Brother, please don't..."
Little Yangzhi lowered her head and pursed her lips, looking up at Xu Mingyuan timidly. She felt that everyone around her seemed to be looking at her face, which made her very shy.
But Xu Mingyuan didn't care about her opinion at all. He took out his mobile phone and took a dozen photos.
"Take a look at it. It's pretty. In two years, your photo will be a popular candidate for non-mainstream profile pictures."
Xu Mingyuan chuckled and handed the phone to Xiao Yangzhi.
Xiao Yangzhi looked at the photo and felt that it was not very good-looking either. She rubbed her cheek with her hand, but the stain could not be wiped off.
"Don't rub it. It will come off with water later. Let's go play first. Haven't you played bumper cars before? Come to Jiangcheng and see what it's like here."
Xu Mingyuan took her and went to find the bumper cars.
Xiao Yangzhi's hands were obviously shaking when it came to tools like cars. Even the steering wheel of the bumper car, she held it nervously.
Xu Mingyuan put his arm around her and said, "Don't worry, just run towards a crowded place, nothing will happen no matter how hard you run."
"Yes, brother, I listen to you."
Yang Zhi agreed very well, but when the power was turned on, she didn't know how to turn the car, so she ran straight into the wall. Seeing this, Xu Mingyuan hurriedly helped to grab the steering wheel, and when Yang Zhi calmed down, he returned the control to her.
The five-minute play time was very short. Seeing Xiao Yangzhi smiling and looking eager to try, Xu Mingyuan asked, "Is it fun?"
"It's fun." Yang Zhi nodded.
"Do you still want to play?"
"I don't want to think about it anymore." Yang Zhi shook his head.
“Then buy another ticket.”
Xu Mingyuan didn't waste any more time and took her to the side to buy tickets.
He had never seen what this little girl liked to play, and now that she was in the mood, of course he had to let her experience it more times.
After queuing up again to play for the third time, seeing Xiao Yangzhi's head leaning limply on his shoulder, Xu Mingyuan knew that she had had enough fun.
Xiao Yangzhi was not interested in the next items on the ticket, whether it was the carousel or the big balloon.
The Ferris wheel made her happier. Overlooking the scenery of Jiangcheng, she pulled Xu Mingyuan and exclaimed, "Jiangcheng is so big."
"Want to try?"
Arriving under the pirate ship, Xu Mingyuan turned around and asked.
"Um……"
Yang Zhi pursed her lips as she spoke, her little face full of confusion.
"It's not scary, and it's not over our heads. Let's go and have some fun."
Few children would be afraid of this kind of entertainment project that swings halfway up the body, so Xu Mingyuan pulled her to sit on it.
That was the fact. Apart from squeezing him a little tight, there wasn't much change in Xiao Yangzhi's expression.
After playing for about two hours, Xu Mingyuan saw that he had played almost everything he wanted to play, so he asked, "What else do you want to play?"
"Brother, that."
Yang Zhi stretched out his finger.
"Which one? Do you want to buy balloons?"
Xu Mingyuan followed her finger and saw an employee wearing a doll costume selling hydrogen balloons.
"No, it's that one."
Yang Zhi raised his finger upwards.
"That? A roller coaster? Are you sure?"
Xu Mingyuan asked three questions in a row, very surprised, and couldn't believe that Xiao Yangzhi had the courage to do this.
But Yang Zhi nodded confidently, "Yes!"
"Uh, okay."
Xu Mingyuan had played it before, but that was when he was in college in his previous life. He had ridden on it once and never thought about riding it a second time. Unexpectedly, little Yangzhi was quite courageous.
Bought the ticket and queued up.
When the two of them sat together, Xu Mingyuan turned his head and found that Xiao Yangzhi's face was pale.
But it was too late to back down.
As the safety bar was buckled, Xu Mingyuan comforted him, "Don't be afraid, it will be over in a minute or two."
"Yeah, brother, I'm not afraid."
Yang Zhi responded, holding the short bar in front of his chest tightly with both hands, and took a few deep breaths. But he was still worried, so he took out one hand and held Xu Mingyuan's arm.
As the roller coaster slowly rose, Xu Mingyuan became a little nervous.
And little Yangzhi, standing next to him, had already closed his eyes in a hopeless manner.
The feeling of weightlessness that followed made Xu Mingyuan open his eyes wide. Hearing the screams from people around him, Xu Mingyuan couldn't help but shout, "Oh my God! Ouch! "
When the roller coaster reached a calmer position, Xu Mingyuan breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't hear any sound from the side and thought that Xiao Yangzhi was very brave.
Taking a closer look, I found that she had her eyes and mouth tightly closed, and she looked like she was about to faint from fright.
"You're so brave and you dare to ride a roller coaster..."
He didn't finish his words because the feeling of weightlessness made him shut his mouth again.
In just less than two minutes, Xu Mingyuan felt as if his heart was pulled up and swung in the air twice. By the time he got off the car, his calves were shaking a little.
Xiao Yangzhi was even worse, his legs were so weak that he couldn't even stand up.
Xu Mingyuan calmed himself down and picked up the soft little Yangzhi with amusement.
"Will you play again in the future?"
"Brother, I don't want to play anymore. I'm scared, I want to go home..."
Yang Zhi's voice was trembling, and she was afraid to put her feet on the ground.
