Chapter 85: Alone Time With the Children
Gu Zhan saw that Gu Bei and Gu Xi had almost finished eating. He waved his hand and told them that he would bring them to the amusement park.
The two children jumped with joy as they followed behind Gu Zhan.
When they arrived at the amusement park, Gu Zhan looked at the attractions around them and asked Gu Bei and Gu Xi.
“What do you two want to play?”
Gu Bei thought for a while before pointing at the roller coaster in the distance. “I want to ride that roller coaster.”
When Gu Xi heard her brother say that, she shook her head in fear and looked at Gu Zhan. “Xixi doesn’t want to play that. I’m a little scared.”
Gu Zhan nodded and looked at Gu Bei. “Let’s play something else, alright? Let’s forget about this. I’m a little scared too.”
After saying that, Gu Zhan lowered his head in embarrassment. Hearing his father’s words, Gu Bei could only reply dejectedly, “Then what’s there to play? I think things like the merry-go-round are childish. They’re just for kids.”
Xixi looked at her brother and pouted in dissatisfaction. She said to her brother, “Aren’t you a kid?”
Gu Bei looked at his sister and said proudly, “If you want to play, you can play. I’m not playing anyway.”
Gu Zhan immediately fell into an awkward situation. The two children had a conflict over what to play, so he could only stand aside.
He really didn’t know how to resolve conflicts and awkwardness. Moreover, he didn’t know the personalities of these two children. Gu Zhan could only think for a while and say, “How about we go and ride the Ferris Wheel?”
After Gu Xi heard it, she quickly nodded hard and said to Gu Zhan, “Okay, I haven’t sat on the Ferris Wheel enough last time. This time, I can sit on the Ferris wheel again.”
Gu Bei said with disdain, “Such a childish thing doesn’t sound fun. I still want to ride the roller coaster.”
Gu Zhan was a little stunned. He didn’t know how to deal with such a thing. Ever since he lost his memory, he didn’t even know what kind of personality he had before. He could only stand there foolishly.
Gu Xi noticed her father standing there motionlessly and knew that he definitely didn’t know what to do. So she quickly pulled Gu Zhan’s hand and said, “Dad, don’t listen to brother. Hurry up and buy the tickets.”
Gu Zhan quickly nodded and ran towards the ticket counter. Gu Xi then turned her head and saw her brother making a face at her. Afterward, Gu Bei turned his face away angrily.
Gu Xi knew that her brother must be angry, so she approached him. Gu Bei said with disdain, “Go away. I don’t want to see you now.”
“Brother, what I want to say is that if we let father ride the roller coaster, his illness might become serious again. It’s not like you don’t know that father hasn’t remembered us yet. We shouldn’t provoke him.”
Hearing his words, Gu Bei seemed to have remembered something. His expression looked a little better as he said to his sister, “But I want to ride the roller coaster. We haven’t been to the amusement park for a long time, and now we can’t even ride the roller coaster even if we want to.”
Gu Xi knew that her brother was angry so he wasn’t being very friendly with her. She just stick out her tongue and said, “We’ll ride the roller coaster when you’re older.”
Gu Bei was a little speechless after hearing that. He felt that when he became older, he definitely wouldn’t come to such a childish place to play. He thought that by then, he should be doing what he could for his mother instead.
After buying the tickets, Gu Zhan rushed back to them.
Seeing that the two children were still waiting for him, Gu Zhan conveniently bought two ice creams next to the ticket seller and handed them to the two children,
The two children took the ice-creams and began to eat them in big mouthfuls.
Gu Zhan looked at the two children’s cute gestures and stroked their heads.
