Chapter 830: A Gift for Children
Xiao Jing'an refused repeatedly, his claws almost blurring into afterimages. He didn't want to, he really didn't want to.
The scene there, filled with laughing children and ladies striking poses for photos, was really not suitable for him.
Just then, a fluffy bunny doll suddenly emerged from the shadows of the neon lights, its fuzzy paws holding a glowing bunny balloon, its round body blocking his way.
Xiao Jing'an looked at the balloon that was about to be shoved into his face, somewhat at a loss, but in the end he still took it with a blank expression.
Why did they suddenly give him this? Where did this big rabbit come from?
It wasn't until Lu Xi jokingly said, "This is for a sulking kid," that his ears turned bright red.
"Sister Lu, please don't tease me."
He's old enough to be in charge, he's not really a kid anymore, but this balloon is quite cute.
Li Qingang, who silently paid the payment, received an approving nod from Rong Yu and a thumbs-up from Lu Xi.
The young man even knows how to prepare a surprise, not bad, not bad.
Night fell over the land, and after finishing their meal, the group watched the city lights come on from the observation deck.
Xiao Jing'an leaned on the railing, watching the traffic below merge into a luminous river.
He had a small science museum gadget stuffed in his shirt pocket, a flashing amusement park badge pinned to his chest, and a rabbit balloon next to him was still blinking.
"What I saw, heard, and felt today..." He gazed into the distance, his voice carried on the evening breeze, "will surely be unforgettable."
When the car stopped, the moon was already high in the sky, and its light shone brightly on the two of them, casting their shadows on the bluestone road.
Xiao Jing'an held onto the rabbit lantern, its warm yellow light swaying gently in the evening breeze, making his profile appear exceptionally soft.
"The international food street that Sister Lu just mentioned... does it really bring together flavors from all over the world?" He slowed his pace slightly, his voice filled with anticipation.
“More than just eight directions,” Lu Xi said with a smile, drawing a circle in the air with her fingertip.
"From Thai Tom Yum Goong to French foie gras to Mexican burritos, and even Icelandic cheese, everything that can stand firm on that street has been certified by hundreds of discerning palates."
The boy's eyes lit up at what he was told, "Then tomorrow we'll try them one by one."
"I'll have to prepare some digestive pills," Lu Xi thought to herself. "I've made some progress with my pills lately, so I'll start a new batch tonight."
As soon as she entered the second-floor living room, several fluffy little creatures darted out from under the sofa and rubbed against her ankles, forming fluffy hula hoops.
"Okay, okay," she bent down and pinched the chubby little face, "I'll open a little snack later, you little gluttons."
"Welcome home—" Ali, wearing clownfish pajamas, suddenly popped out from behind the potted plants, peeking out from her thick lips to greet everyone.
Lu Xi raised an eyebrow and looked at the outfit: "Your pajamas... are quite interesting."
This look seems to be quite popular lately; I really want to take some photos and use them as memes.
Ali automatically filtered out the teasing: "There's stewed pear soup and steamed dumplings in the kitchen, would you two like to have a late-night snack?"
Xiao Jing'an draped his coat over his arm, a gentle weariness in his eyes: "Thank you for your trouble. I'll have a bowl of pear soup and then go to rest."
After a long day, my body and mind have been quite stressed, so I need to get a good night's sleep to calm down.
Ali leaned against the sofa, watching the warm light from Xiao Jing'an's door gradually dim, before turning to Lu Xi, who was surrounded by cats: "How was your trip today?"
