Chapter 749 The Four Stood Across from Each Other

With Li Yuan drawing near, his warm breath brushed against Shen Xi’s face. “What did you

say?”

Shen Xi shook her head. “No. I’ve done nothing of that sort.”

Li Yuan chuckled, unable to help himself from pinching the girl’s rosy cheeks. “Well, watch out for what’s coming.” Shen Xi retorted, “You wouldn’t.”

Li Yuan replied, “Yeah, I wouldn’t.”

Shen Xi laughed in delight while nudging him to the other end. She retrieved an item from her backpack and gave it to him before lying down on her side with her head resting against his lap. “Brother, I feel an itch in my ear. Clean my ear for me.”

Li Yuan looked at the ear pick that had a scoop on one end and a kitten’s head on the other. The ear pick was in cute pink. He turned his attention to the girl. “It’s dark. I won’t be able to see.”

Shen Xi sweetly cooed, “Press the cat head.”

Li Yuan gave his thumb a push and the ear pick lit up. He smiled dotingly as his eyes glimmered in surprise.

Shen Xi said, “I just bought this amazing device. Clean my ears and then I’ll clean yours.”

Li Yuan held down the girl’s squirmy head. “Don’t move. I’ll begin now.”

Responding favorably, Shen Xi closed her eyes and indulged in the moment.

Li Yuan always knew to exert the right amount of strength, but there was nothing in the girl’s ear. Her ears were clean.

Since they were in a moving vehicle, Li Yuan remained cautious as he gently dug the ear. The girl’s paced breathing saw a tender smile across his lips.

The girl was like a cat, soft and cute. His heart could melt by just watching her. He wished time would stop at this moment. As the amusement park was having its year-end annual carnival, there was a sea of people even at night.

At the entrance to the park, Li Yuan stared at the long-faced girl. “Are we still going in?”

Although the amusement park was fun, they would have to wait at least half an hour for each ride because of the crowd. They would not be able to get on many rides.

It never occurred to Shen Xi that there would be that many people at the amusement park this late. The scene of people packed like sardines made her shudder. “Brother, let’s come another day. We should get home.”

Mom and Dad were home. Fu Qingli also told her to come back for dinner.

“How about I get the place cleared?” Li Yuan looked at her and sought her opinion.

Shen Xi shook her head. “That won’t be fun. It’s better to have some people around. We’ll wait another day to have a blast when there aren’t too many people.” It had been on her mind to revisit the amusement park once Li Yuan’s legs were better. She wanted to drag him along to all the thrilling rides and games she had her eye on.

Li Yuan nodded. “Let’s head home then.”

The pair turned back and ran into another couple. Hand-in-hand, the couple was in full-blown disguise with masks and sunglasses. The four stood across from each other.

Shen Xi stared ahead. “Lil’ Ye, Brother.”

“Are you just coming out of the park?” Letting go of Yu Yuanxi’s hand, Song Wenye ran to Shen Xi and asked her in confusion, “What’s with the crowd today?”.

Shen Xi pointed at the large fonts at the entryway. “There’s a carnival and performances going on. A few famous singers and celebrities have been invited today.”

Most of the people were here today to join in the bustle, watch the performances, and support their idols as fans.

“What luck.” Song Wenye sighed. Why was it so hard to have a date? She read that the amusement park was a must-go for couples. Hence, the reason she was here.

She and Yu Yuanxi had nothing on their work schedule today, so they picked to go to the amusement park at night to avoid being spotted. Yet, their plans hit a roadblock.

Yu Yuanxi approached. “Are you guys on your way out?”

Li Yuan shook his head with a smile. “It’s crowded there. We haven’t gotten in.”

Yu Yuanxi was also in the same mind that it was jam-packed after a glance at the mass. He turned to Song Wenye. “Lil’ Ye, are we still going in?”

“Of course. So what if there’s a lot of people?” Song Wenye resolutely nodded and pulled Shen Xi along. “Xixi, join us.”

“You barely get to spend time on a date. I don’t think it’s a good idea if we come along.” Shen Xi did not want to intrude.

“It’s fine. They can line up and hold our stuff while we play.” High in spirits, Song Wenye dragged Shen Xi forward. “Let’s go. Let’s go. I haven’t been to the amusement park with you before.”

IIIUSCI.

Yu Yuanxi and Li Yuan exchanged glances as the girls ditched them and took off as if they did not exist. The boys quickly caught up so as not to be left behind.

No men could come in between when girls, especially two besties, hung out. The men were now their personal porters.

The long queues at the many rides and games at the amusement park could make their stomachs churn. The food street, on the other hand, had smaller crowds compared to the rides.

Shen Xi did not splurge much.

Song Wenye basically bought everything she saw, be it a toy, food, or something she had never seen before.

Nevertheless, the girls did one thing in common – they would relish the food they like while only taking a couple of bites out of the ones they did not and leaving them with their personal escorts.

A bunch of stuff hung around Li Yuan and Yu Yuanxi’s necks. Their hands were full too. Following behind the girls, they footed the bill and carried the items.

Yu Yuanxi and Song Wenye wore sunglasses and masks, but shen Xi and Li Yuan did not. With the pair’s looks standing out among the ordinary, they were the center of attention everywhere they went. The public was naturally drawn to them.

All candid videos and photos taken of Shen Xi in public had been wiped clean. It was not that no one recognized her but nobody dared to step forth and point her out.

Song Wenye was a member of China’s top girl group that was at the height of its popularity. However, it was hard to recognize her in full disguise, unless they were die-hard fans.

Sure, Yu Yuanxi had gone into showbiz, but his first movie had not hit the screens until the lunar new year. Once the movie was released, he, as the male lead, would officially make his debut. He was not considered a public figure as of yet, so not many people could recognize him.

Meanwhile, Shen Xi and Song Wenye were waiting for their order in front of a stall that sold stinky tofu.

Li Yuan and Yu Yuanxi stood on the girls’ sides like bodyguards. “Song Wenye!” Someone amidst the crowd cried and pointed at Song Wenye.

The youngsters were the majority at the amusement park. Those who were not keen on celebrities would still keep an eye on the latest happenings in showbiz. Since Song Wenye was a household name, many looked over to the source.

There were also people who charged ahead.

A man, who was the closest to them, ran and somehow tripped when fast approaching. He was about to knock Shen Xi over.
