After getting off the plane, Ji Shuyan and his party parted ways with Zhuang Chengjun. Zhuang Chengjun’s home was not in the same area as theirs. Before they parted, he even invited Ji Yuan and the others to visit his home.

Ji Yuan shook his head regretfully, “Next time senior, our hotel and itinerary have already been arranged.” pZXGU4

Zhuang Chengjun didn’t force it either, “Then I’ll see you on campus.”

He said goodbye to Ji Shuyan and Duan Zhi as well and got into a cab that was lined up in front of the airport.

Because Ji Yuan wanted to go to the newly opened large amusement park in Chongzhou on the first day, Ji Shuyan booked a hotel directly next to the amusement park, so as to make it convenient to get in and out tomorrow. PyL0lg

He booked a suite with two bedrooms and a living room. He and Ji Yuan stayed in one room while Duan Zhi occupied the other room by himself.

He came out of the shower, his hair hadn’t been completely dried, and water droplets slid down his neck. He walked over and saw Ji Yuan was still studying the map manual of the amusement park, and joked, “You’re all grown up yet you still like to play with these so much.”

Ji Yuan wore panda pajamas, with a black and white cap over his head. From a distance, he looked like a glutinous rice dumpling. He protested, “This kind of amusement park is for adults, okay? Also, it’s not like you haven’t been there before.”

Ji Shuyan sat down, “I really haven’t been to an amusement park by myself since I was twenty, I’ve always accompanied you.”

H12IS9

He casually picked up the amusement park brochure and flipped through it. He found that compared to some years ago, the current amusement park grounds had expanded quite a bit, with a dazzling variety of rides. He doesn’t know if Ji Yuan can ride all of them in one day.

He asked Duan Zhi next to him in passing, “Do you also like going to amusement parks?”

Duan Zhi hesitated, “Actually, I haven’t been to them much.”

Seeing Ji Shuyan looking up at him, Duan Zhi smiled, “When I was a kid, there was no one to go with me, and I didn’t find it fun to go by myself, so I’ve only gone to amusement parks a few times with my classmates after high school.” Ov1WoG

Ji Shuyan frowned slightly.

There was no one to accompany him, this phrase could actually be interpreted in many ways, but in Duan Zhi’s case, it may simply mean what it appeared to mean. He had known Duan Zhi for more than half a year, but he had never heard Duan Zhi’s parents call him. Even the few occasional calls were from his aunt. It was as if the others had disappeared and couldn’t even bother to say hello.

Also, he had heard Duan Zhi mention before that almost all the people who took care of him when he was a child were nannies.

Ji Shuyan wiped his hair and couldn’t help but feel a little soft-hearted. Km9yTL

He put down the map of the amusement park, “Then you two take a good look at it. If you feel that you don’t have enough time, we can stay for another day. I’ll go to bed first.”

Ji Yuan and Duan Zhi looked up at him together, and Ji Yuan asked, “Why are you going to bed so early?”

Ji Shuyan yawned, “Do you think I’ve the same energy as you guys? I was still at the hospital this morning and have been travelling all afternoon. I’m so tired I don’t even want to move.”

Ji Shuyan laughed, shook his head, and spat out the foam. 97NFO5

After packing up, the three of them went downstairs to have breakfast together, and then went to the amusement park.

This amusement park was fairly new, and with now being the peak period of the National Day, the place was so crowded with people that it was difficult to even move. Although Ji Yuan had bought fast track tickets in advance so that they could go on each ride once, because there were too many tourists, there was a small queue even in the fast lane.

Ji Shuyan lined up with a restless heart. 3b7nj6

He wasn’t impatient, but he was very afraid of the heat. It was October and although it was already fall, the sun was still scorching. The queue was so long that you couldn’t see the end. While the visitors waited in line honestly, they couldn’t avoid moving around which inevitably led to pushing and shoving. The air had a scent of sweat, they were surrounded by noisy talking, and strangers’ arms would accidentally press against him.

Everything about it was unpleasant.

Ji Shuyan calmly turned his face away, covering his mouth with the back of his hand. He frowned and tried to endure the churning in his stomach with difficulty.

He felt like he was about to throw up. This open space smelled far worse than the closed environment of the hospital. WIwREb

Duan Zhi noticed that something was wrong with him and held him up, “What’s wrong with you?”

Ji Shuyan was unable to say anything so he just shook his head.

Duan Zhi bent down slightly, and stared at Ji Shuyan’s pale face for a while, “Do you feel uncomfortable because there are too many people?”

He knew that Ji Shuyan couldn’t stand the sweltering heat, especially with such a congested crowd. blNoeV

Ji Shuyan didn’t try to be brave either. He nodded and said in a low voice, “It’s okay, I’ll be fine after a while.”

They are now in the middle of the crowd, in a position where they can’t get out. If they want to, they have no choice but to go back the same way they came.

Duan Zhi stood up straight, and pulled Ji Shuyan to his side, letting him stand close to the outside, while he himself blocked the other side, trying his best to separate him from the crowd.

Then he took out a small hand-held fan and a peppermint nasal stick from the bag. VQ7OmR

He handed the mint stick to Ji Shuyan, and turned on the small fan. Even though the wind power wasn’t strong, it still blew away the dull air in this small area.

“Put the mint stick under your nose, you’ll feel better.” Duan Zhi said.

Chrysanthemum Garden.

Ji Shuyan opened the small nasal stick, and a peppermint smell gushed out, following the air into his lungs, driving away the murky breath and making him feel a lot relieved.

It was quite useful. Xld1zM

Ji Shuyan took a closer look at the small mint stick, then looked up at Duan Zhi, “Why did you think of bringing this?” Duan Zhi hooked his lips, “Isn’t this a travel necessity? It can be seen at first glance that you lack life experience.”

Ji Shuyan didn’t refute it. He’s only been out on business trips over these years and naturally, he had assistants to help take care of his basic necessities. So, he indeed wouldn’t have thought of such a fine detail.

“Thank you.” He said to Duan Zhi.

He breathed in the cool mint fragrance under his nose, and his dizziness improved a lot. He leaned against the railing and looked at Duan Zhi strangely. Wgtyr0

Duan Zhi looked like a pampered young master. Although his food and clothing are low-key, they are all worth a lot of money. Even a random watch on his hand cost several years of someone else’s salary. But Duan Zhi was very gentle and patient if you looked at the details, whether it was last time at the hotel or this time, he had a kind of maturity and reliability that is completely inconsistent with his appearance.

Duan Zhi didn’t notice what Ji Shuyan was thinking, he took another peppermint stick from his bag, and called out to Ji Yuan who was in front of them by a few people.

When they came in just now, due to the crowded flow of people, Ji Yuan was separated from them, there was almost a meter between them.

As soon as Ji Yuan turned his head, a round object fell in front of his eyes. He hurriedly caught it, and when he saw what it was, he was immediately overjoyed. vz3NEk

“Thank you, Brother Duan.” Ji Yuan waved his hand, “You are my savior. I obviously bought everything, but I forgot them all at the hotel.”

Ji Shuyan: “…”

They are both twenty years old, why was there such a big difference between them?

. 4I6uVj

Thanks to the small fan and mint sticks provided by Duan Zhi, as well as the frozen lemonade he bought later, Ji Shuyan saved up enough energy to make it through the day.

There were too many rides in the park, and one day was definitely not enough to go on all of them, but Ji Yuan had already played all the rides he was most interested in.

They decided to eat dinner at a restaurant inside the park beside the fairy tale street. European-style antique buildings, and cartoon characters in plush doll costumes could be seen everywhere.

Ji Shuyan didn’t recognize any of them, but Ji Yuan knew them like the back of his hand, “This is Boji, that is Nana, and the one there is Mengmeng.” XMPCYq

In Ji Shuyan’s eyes, they were nothing more than ducks, mice and pink pigs.

But as an enlightened parent, even though his child had long passed the age for this, he still nodded cooperatively and praised without any undulation, “En, it’s quite cute.”

One could hear the carelessness right away.

Ji Yuan didn’t care either, he was busy frantically taking pictures while hugging the big white duck. CY8xVd

Duan Zhi had no interest in these plush dolls. Instead, he had been checking out the souvenirs through the window, he even pushed the door open and walked in.

Ji Yuan felt a little strange, he couldn’t think of anything on this street that Duan Zhi would be interested in.

But soon he knew the answer.

Duan Zhi walked out of the store carrying two plush animal ear hairbands. He casually threw one on Ji Yuan’s head, while the other – Ji Yuan sucked in a breath of cold air as he watched Duan Zhi boldly put it on his uncle’s head. 5Uq8wF

Ji Shuyan was still drinking lemonade and was caught off guard by a pair of ears on his head. He froze for a second before looking at Duan Zhi coldly, “Are you looking for death?”

Duan Zhi smiled and held up his phone, “Don’t be so fierce, Uncle Ji. It suits you.”

This was not his own filter, he had bought a black kitten ear hairband. Ji Shuyan was already fair with the beautiful and seductive phoenix eyes, the black kitten ears on his head added a sense of playfulness and temptation, as if he was really a beautiful black cat transformed into its human form, looking at the stupid humans arrogantly and indifferently.

Unfortunately, this scene didn’t last long. Ji Shuyan expressionlessly took off the hair band, and put it on Duan Zhi’s head, “You can wear it yourself if you like.” wZNVy1

After saying that, he turned around and went into the restaurant to find a seat.

It’s a pity, Duan Zhi sighed in his heart, but luckily he was quick enough and took a picture.

He saved eight copies of the photo in one go. Ji Yuan looked on from the side and marveled, “Brother Duan, you’re a real warrior. The grass on the grave of the last person who dared to do this to my uncle is three meters high.”

Duan Zhi put his phone away, “Really? Then it seems that I still have some status in your uncle’s heart seeing that he isn’t willing to kill me.” 0tXGAl

After he finished speaking, he carried his plush ears and followed Ji Shuyan into the restaurant.

Only the bewildered Ji Yuan was left behind, completely unable to understand the logic of this bandit.

I was confused because of the next line mentioning duck, mice and pink pig making me doubt if they were Donald duck (Táng lǎo yā), Jerry (jei li) or micky (Mǐ qí) and Peppa (pei pei) but I searched up the Chinese names and these are what came up.
