Nan Yan:
She looked at him, pondering if she had understood correctly. Did he really have so much free time to waste?
“Are you free today?” Nan Yan couldn’t help but ask, her doubt creeping in.
“Well, somewhat,” the man replied with a low, husky voice tinged with a playful undertone. “Big brother thinks that, compared to work, spending time with Yanyan is more important.”
Nan Yan narrowed her eyes at him, her tone cool. “Is big brother planning to follow the footsteps of infatuated emperors, loving the beauty instead of the kingdom?”
Qin Lu’s eyes gleamed with amusement as he asked in return, “What does Yanyan think?”
“I think… it’s time for us to have breakfast, big brother.”
Nan Yan didn’t fall for his charm.
This man’s increasingly obvious ulterior motives toward her were impossible to ignore. While she didn’t resist the idea of letting him into her heart, she wanted to maintain the current status quo for now.
Qin Lu cast a meaningful glance at Nan Yan.
Every time she steered the conversation away from such topics, deliberately avoiding them, it seemed that what he had given her wasn’t enough to make her fully accept him. It looked like he needed to wait a little longer before she would be ready to embrace him.
Qin Lu’s mention of a “date” was merely a pretext to spend more time with her. After all, in his eyes, Nan Yan was still a child who hadn’t even graduated from high school. Crossing certain boundaries was out of the question.
However, he had put thought into selecting the location.
“This is the place you wanted to bring me to?” Nan Yan looked at the amusement park in front of her with an expressionless face. She stared at Qin Lu with a hint of disbelief.
Did she really come across as such a child to him? It wasn’t just the constant “little one” remarks; now he had taken her to a place like this!
No wonder Qin Lu was dressed casually today. When she had seen him at the entrance of the old mansion earlier, she was momentarily surprised by his outfit.
Having grown accustomed to his usual impeccably dressed appearance, seeing him change his style of clothing occasionally was a stunning experience for her.
“Don’t like it?” Qin Lu, who stood more than twenty centimeters taller than her, had to lower his head a bit to meet her gaze.
“It’s not that…” Nan Yan’s eyes carried a complex expression as she looked at the amusement park. Her emotions were stirred.
She hadn’t experienced a childhood, and the memories of the original owner also lacked a childhood. This place, existing only in the accounts of others, held some appeal to her.
However, she couldn’t help but feel awkward. She might look like she was eighteen on the outside, but her mental age wasn’t eighteen anymore. She wasn’t that childish.
“Shall we go in?” Qin Lu suggested.
“Alright…” Qin Lu held her hand, and the two of them slowly walked into the amusement park, following the crowd.
It was Sunday, and the place was crowded, mostly with parents bringing their children. There were also young couples. Looking around, it was easy to spot several affectionate couples openly displaying their affection.
It was Qin Lu’s first time in such a place. He frowned slightly as he observed the chaotic crowd, but he quickly suppressed his discomfort. He tried to diminish his imposing presence and walked slowly with the girl.
“What do you want to play?” His deep voice sounded gently beside her.
Nan Yan hesitated as she looked at the roller coaster and the Free Fall Drop Tower. These two options seemed thrilling and challenging. As for the carousel, she absolutely refused to ride it.
With a slight tilt of her chin, she looked at him and asked, “Big brother, are you afraid of heights?”
“No, I’m not.”
“Then let’s go for this one.” Nan Yan pointed at the Free Fall Drop Tower. Qin Lu followed her pointing finger and his gaze deepened. “Alright.”
He wasn’t afraid of heights, but he had some reservations about this kind of ride…
After purchasing tickets, it quickly became their turn. Nan Yan noticed that ever since they sat down, Qin Lu had been gripping her hand quite tightly. His grip was surprisingly strong.
“Big brother, are you scared?” Nan Yan asked involuntarily, tilting her head.
But then she thought, it couldn’t be, right? The mighty Mr. Qin, afraid of a the Free Fall Drop Tower ride?
Qin Lu calmly glanced at her and asked, “What do you think?”
Nan Yan blinked, then curved her lips mischievously, a hint of mischief in her eyes. “Big brother is so capable, he must not be scared.”
Regardless of whether he was scared or not, now that they were seated, there was no turning back. It would damage a man’s pride.
Nan Yan was quite curious about how Qin Lu would look when he got off the drop tower later.
Qin Lu’s gaze turned cold. He knew exactly what was going on in her little mind. The little one wanted to see him embarrassed…
Then, as the drop tower suddenly ascended, his back broke out in cold sweat.
During the ride’s wild ups and downs, the deafening screams echoed all around.
Nan Yan remained expressionless throughout the ride and even calmly turned her head to look at Qin Lu.
Qin Lu also remained composed, and from his expression, it seemed like a walk in the park.
Had she guessed wrong?
After the ride ended and they got off the drop tower, Nan Yan noticed that Qin Lu’s complexion had turned a shade paler than before. There were even beads of sweat on his forehead.
So, he was actually scared, right?
Seeing him appearing somewhat worse for wear, Nan Yan reflected on her actions. Maybe it wasn’t right for her to have unintentionally made him suffer while he was just trying to take her out to relax.
“Big brother, do you need to take a break?”
Qin Lu pursed his lips, suppressing the nauseous feeling, and replied calmly,
“No need, let’s go try something else.”
He closed his eyes for a moment and added, “No more choosing these kinds of up-and-down machines.”
He had already reached his limit with such rides after one experience, and he absolutely couldn’t do it again.
Nan Yan found a resting spot and pulled him over to sit down there.
She took his hand, pulled out a silver needle from her pocket, and calmly inserted it into an acupoint on his hand.
As she manipulated the silver needle, she calmly said, “Next time, if you don’t feel well, please tell me in advance. Don’t try to be tough.”
“You didn’t say anything, so I didn’t know. I thought you could handle it.” Qin Lu was speechless.
Nan Yan was still young and didn’t understand that men could never say no.
Seeing her caring for him, Qin Lu felt that he hadn’t suffered in vain.
After Nan Yan had performed acupuncture on Qin Lu for a few minutes to alleviate his discomfort, they headed to the shooting range.
The shooting range in the amusement park certainly couldn’t compare in
terms of standards to a professional shooting range.
It was more for entertainment, with less emphasis on high-level skills.
Several people were standing in front of the targets, shooting in a seemingly professional manner.
Qin Lu pinched her palm and raised an eyebrow. “Want to give it a try?” Nan Yan shook her head. “It’s too childish.”
“What do you mean, childish? You dare to call my place childish!” The owner happened to overhear Nan Yan’s remark and became infuriated. He approached her to argue, “Even though my shooting range is located in an amusement park, it’s definitely not inferior to those outside!”
“Young lady, have you ever tried it? You arrogantly called my place childish. If you’re so capable, why don’t you try a round?!”
The owner was a military enthusiast and always believed that his shooting range offered a challenging experience. But now, a young girl dared to call it childish, which he couldn’t tolerate.
“One round is fine too. What’s the reward for succeeding in the challenge?”,
Nan Yan asked casually.
“I won’t do it without a reward.”‘
