Chapter 433 Ferris Wheel

Meanwhile, outside the locker room, Xu Nian was laughing so hard she was slapping her thigh.

He was already starting to wonder which outfit Xu Xi would choose to wear when he came out.

To buy this tough battle suit, he deliberately took a long detour to a more distant store, just to see Xu Xi embarrass himself in front of him and to avenge Xu Xi for taking him to experience all sorts of thrilling activities, scaring him half to death and making him lose face.

Two and a half minutes later, the locker room door clicked open a crack.

Xu Nian turned around, looked at the figure inside, and burst into laughter.

Xu Xi indeed put on that prison battle suit, with the three big characters "King of Fall Resistance" next to the iced tea bottle pattern particularly eye-catching, making him look quite comical.

Xu Xi's cheeks instantly burned, turning red from the tips of her ears to her neck. Her hands clenched tightly, her teeth clenched so hard they made a grinding sound, and her eyes were filled with shame and anger.

The next second, she took out the bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the cap, and pretended to splash it at the man who was mocking her.

Xu Nian sensed something was wrong and immediately turned and ran.

"Stop! Don't run!" Xu Xi's angry voice rang out from behind. She waved the water bottle in her hand and splashed water on Xu Nian's back again and again.

"Hehehe, only an idiot wouldn't run." Xu Nian said, turning back to make a face at her as she ran.

But soon, the smile on his face disappeared.

He was so busy making funny faces that he didn't pay attention to where he was going, and he accidentally turned and ran into a dead end.

He stopped in front of the wall, cold sweat breaking out on his back. His smile froze, replaced by an awkward, apologetic grin. He slowly turned to face Xu Xi, who was approaching. "Um, I was just joking, trying to lighten the mood, right? Haha... hahaha..."

.......

"Ugh... Stop splashing! It's all wet!"

.......

"I was wrong, I was wrong!"

.......

Ten minutes later, Xu Xi left the alley with a satisfied smile on his face.

Behind her followed a man dressed in white cloth with a large "prisoner" character printed on his chest.

Xu Nian is now truly caught in the crossfire – she can't be happy anymore.

His clothes were completely soaked, and he was forced to change into the clothes Xu Xi had bought for him, which was the prison uniform he was wearing.

Truly, karma is a wheel, and no one escapes the judgment of Heaven.

People around him began to focus their attention on him, pointing and whispering about his clothes, and bursts of laughter could be heard from time to time.

He quickly caught up with Xu Xi, walked to her side, and tried to draw some of his attention to Xu Xi.

This trick really works. Wearing strange clothes only attracts a lot of strange looks.

But when the two of them wear the same clothes and walk side by side, it looks like they're deliberately making a fuss. Most passersby smile knowingly, and some even come up to them and ask if they can take a photo together.

After all, in today's world where anime and manga culture is rampant, people who wear strange costumes on the street are more likely to be recognized as cosplayers than as crazy.

Xu Nian stared at the words "King of Drag Resistance" on Xu Xi's body, her eyebrows and eyes unconsciously curving up, but she still couldn't help but laugh out loud again.

Hearing his laughter, Xu Xi turned her head to look at the large "prisoner" character on his chest, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and let out a crisp laugh.

As she laughed, her eyes suddenly felt hot and a thin layer of mist appeared.

Their appearance was so similar to that of the playful couple I saw when I entered the park.

......

As darkness fell, a bright moon slowly rose, casting its gentle light.

The lights in the amusement park lit up one after another, and colorful lights filled every corner of the park. The neon lights flashed, making the night sky exceptionally bright.

Even at night, the place remains bustling with activity. The parade of floats slowly begins, the stage performances are spectacular, and long queues still form for all kinds of rides, with laughter and cheers echoing throughout.

Xu Nian and Xu Xi changed into normal clothes and strolled around the park in the afterglow of the setting sun. They watched the circus, enjoyed a play, ran hand in hand on their way to different shows, and snuggled together on a boat in the middle of the lake.

If Xu Nian remembered correctly, this should be the day he saw Xu Xi smile the most.

It turns out that this aloof and proud girl can also show a genuine smile.

Her smile is so beautiful, a shy yet reserved charm. Her clear, cool eyes seem to hold a pool of sweet water, like a jasmine bud about to bloom, elegant and captivating.

A clear chime rang out from the clock tower, and the hour hand slowly moved from 7 to 8.

In an instant, countless fireworks soared into the sky, bursting into dazzling displays that illuminated the dark night.

Xu Nian and Xu Xi sat on a bench, looking up at the dazzling fireworks. Unconsciously, they slowly brought their palms together and intertwined their fingers.

"Are you happy today?" Xu Nian asked the girl beside her with a smile.

A faint light flickered in Xu Xi's eyes, and he nodded gently: "Mm."

Hearing this, Xu Nian was overjoyed.

Although he couldn't prepare a birthday gift that would impress Xu Xi, it gave her a good mood all day, making it a memorable birthday experience.

He reached out and gently smoothed Xu Xi's wind-blown hair, saying tenderly, "Let's go. You didn't sleep well last night, so go to bed early tonight."

These words of concern caused the smile on Xu Xi's face to gradually fade, and his expression became somewhat dejected.

Just then, she caught a glimpse of the Ferris wheel slowly turning beside the fireworks out of the corner of her eye.

The enormous wheels looked especially romantic under the lights.

She tugged at the man's sleeve and said, "Come ride the Ferris wheel with me one more time. After we're done, we'll leave."

Xu Nian nodded and readily agreed, "Okay, I'll do as you say."

The two stood up from the bench and walked towards the Ferris wheel.

Throughout the journey, Xu Xi held Xu Nian's hand tightly, with an unusually strong grip that caused Xu Nian some pain at times.

"Why are you holding on so tightly?" Xu Nian looked at her helplessly and amusedly. "It's not like we'll never see each other again."

Xu Xi didn't speak, but he quietly relaxed a little, and the light in his eyes dimmed a bit more.

At this moment, because of the start of the fireworks show, the area under the Ferris wheel was already packed with people, with long queues stretching for hundreds of meters and seemingly endless.

Xu Nian subconsciously wanted to walk towards the paid VIP channel, but as soon as he took a step, Xu Xi grabbed his wrist and pulled him to the end of the long line.

"What's wrong?" Xu Nian shook her head in confusion. "This line is too long. If we wait in line here, it will probably take an hour before it's our turn."

You should know that Xu Xi's favorite thing to do is to spend money to buy priority rights.

I bought a first-class plane ticket just to save a few minutes of waiting time at security; even today's amusement park tickets were bought from scalpers, paying double the price to avoid queuing.

For her, time is the most precious thing.
