Chapter 184 I also want to go out and play with my parents, but why...

When An Fusheng returned home from get off work in the evening, he ran into He Chen and Mingyue bringing Wen Xinglan back. Only then did he realize that Wen Xinglan had been taken out to play by them.

An Fusheng took the sleeping Wen Xinglan from He Chen's arms and suddenly realized that the once thin and small child was now surprisingly heavy to hold.

An Fusheng looked at Wen Xinglan in his arms. Under the dim light, Wen Xinglan's chubby face was tilted back, his mouth slightly open, his breathing shallow and steady, sleeping soundly. An Fusheng remembered when he first came, Wen Xinglan always liked to hide his face when he slept, especially in his armpits. An Fusheng was afraid that he would accidentally suffocate, so he would always wake up several times in the middle of the night to pry his face open a little, and then check his breathing. Only after feeling his warm breath would he dare to continue sleeping.

"When did you grow so long?" An Fusheng gently bounced the little boy in his arms. He used to be able to hold the baby with one hand, but now he needed two.

After carrying Wen Xinglan upstairs and telling Lou Lan, An Fusheng carried Wen Xinglan back to the room.

After playing outside all day, it would definitely be uncomfortable to go to sleep without taking a shower, but being woken up while sleeping soundly would probably not be comfortable either. An Fusheng was still hesitating whether to wake Wen Xinglan up to give him a shower, but unexpectedly, Wen Xinglan woke up on his own as soon as he touched the bed.

"Brother?" Wen Xinglan asked, grabbing An Fusheng in a daze.

An Fusheng laughed and said, "You're awake. Then go take a shower."

"Don't take a bath." Wen Xinglan shook her head. "Baby needs to sleep."

“He keeps saying he doesn’t want to take a bath, but once he does, he doesn’t want to get out of the water.” An Fusheng snorted and carried him away.

After taking a nice, fragrant bath, An Fusheng prepared to give him a bedtime milk, but then realized the bottle was missing. "Where's your bottle?" he asked.

Wearing a soft sleeping bag, Wen Xinglan looked like a Teletubby. An Fusheng asked him, and then he tilted his head back and asked An Fusheng, "Where's the baby bottle?"

An Fusheng: "I'm asking you a question."

Wen Xinglan spun around in place, then raised her hands to look at them. Her hands were empty. Then she looked up at An Fusheng innocently.

An Fusheng: "Don't you take your baby bottle with you everywhere? Did you leave it with your parents?"

Wen Xinglan: "I don't know much."

An Fusheng: "Then don't drink milk tonight."

Wen Xinglan: "I want to drink milk."

An Fusheng: "How can you drink without a bottle? You smashed all the other bottles, and there was only one left, and now it's lost."

Wen Xinglan scratched his head, then looked at An Fusheng, and began to realize the seriousness of the matter. His expression gradually became solemn.

An Fusheng propped himself up on his arms to keep his eyes level with his, "How about we don't drink tonight, and make up for it with two drinks tomorrow?"

Upon hearing that there was no milk to drink, Wen Xinglan's lips trembled, and she began to sob and cry.

An Fusheng: "..."

Having no other choice, An Fusheng could only make him some milk using a cup and a straw.

...

The day's electricity consumption was excessive, and after eating and drinking to her heart's content, Wen Xinglan quickly fell asleep again.

An Shisi sneaked over to An Fusheng's bed again. Seeing that his younger brother was asleep, he quietly slipped under the covers and asked in a low voice, "Big brother, does little brother have a mom and dad?"

“Hmm,” An Fusheng said softly.

An Shisi: "My brother's parents are so kind; they bought him lots of gifts."

An Fusheng remained silent.

“My brother’s parents took him out to play, and I want to go out to play with my parents too.” An Shisi asked, “But why don’t I have parents?”

An Fusheng: "You have Mother Wen and Mother Lou."

An Shisi: "But Wen Mama and Lou Mama are everyone's mothers. My brother's parents are only his. I also want my own parents. Besides, none of us have a father."

An Fusheng: "Where do you want to go for fun?"

An Shisi: "I want to go to the amusement park, I want to ride the bumper cars."

An Fusheng said, "How about your older brother and Sister Yueyue take you to the amusement park this weekend?"

An Shisi jumped out of bed instantly, her eyes sparkling, and said, "Really? Then I won't go to kindergarten tomorrow, okay?"

An Fusheng: "No, if you don't go to kindergarten, who will turn off the classroom lights? Leaving the lights on all the time will waste a lot of electricity, and no one will close the windows either. If it's windy or rainy, water will run into the classroom and make it dirty."

An Shisi sighed, "Alright then."

...

The next day, An Fusheng announced two important things: first, a trip to the amusement park for the weekend; and second, a day off for all hotel staff.

From the orphanage: "Wow! Great! We're going to the amusement park!"

From the restaurant: "Aaaaaah! I haven't seen what a weekend looks like in ages! I want to play! I want to play! I want to call all my friends and go out to play!"

...

Summer passed by while we were busy with our heads down, then autumn passed by, and before we knew it, winter had already fallen.

...

The weekend arrived as everyone had been looking forward to it.

Early in the morning, the children chattered like a flock of sparrows, waking everyone up.

An Fusheng got up, washed up, and made breakfast. After finishing the breakfast, he found that no one came to eat.

An Fusheng yelled from the stairwell, "Breakfast is ready!"

No response?

An Fusheng then shouted, "Let's head to the amusement park right after we finish eating!"

"I'm here! Big brother, wait for me!"

"Big brother, I'm here too!"

An Fusheng raised the corners of his mouth and turned back to the restaurant.

A moment later, a furry head popped up at the restaurant entrance, then another...

An Fusheng chuckled; it turned out he had gone to get ready early in the morning.

...

After breakfast, An Fusheng and Wen Yue took everyone out to play.

Lou Lan asked worriedly, "Are you two really okay? Should I go too?"

Wen Yue: "We can do it. Didn't you make plans to go shopping with your friends? You just need to have fun shopping today."

Lou Lanyou was still worried: "Then I'll walk around for a while and then come pick you up?"

An Fusheng came downstairs with a scarf wrapped around his neck. "We can do it. You can play without worry. It's best to eat dinner outside before coming back. Otherwise, Aunt Wen will be sleeping at home and won't eat. You'll be eating leftovers by yourself."

Lou Lan said, "Alright, be careful outside. Remember to count heads every now and then so you don't get lost. Wear more clothes, it's windy outside, it's not like being at home..."

An Fusheng patted the scarf he had just tied. "The scarves are all tied. And look at them, Yueyue dressed them up like balls this morning."

Lou Lan looked around and saw that everyone was indeed dressed warmly, and each person was carrying a small bag containing their belongings. She checked the contents of the bags and found that everything they needed was there. Lou Lan felt relieved; how come all her children were so easy to take care of? "Alright, alright, let's go."

Lou Lan then said to Wen Yue, "Since you finally get to go out and have some fun, buy whatever you want to eat while you're out. Don't be stingy with your money."

An Shisi was unusually excited: "Aunt Lou, I want to buy ten Kinder Surprise eggs!"

Lou Lan: "No Kinder Surprise eggs allowed!"

An Shisi: "..."

...

Since there were too many people to fit in the car, An Fusheng and Wen Yue decided to take everyone by subway. It was very convenient to take the subway from the welfare home to the amusement park, as there was no need to transfer along the same line.

They may seem like a group of children, but in reality, only Wen Xingrui and Wen Xinglan need to be taken care of.

On the way, Wen Xinglan was taken care of by An Fusheng, Wen Xingrui by Ji Fengnian, An Shisi and Wen Xingmou by Wen Yue, Bai Miaomiao by Wen Xinghe, and Bai Mangmang and Wen Xinglin by themselves.

Children love excitement. When they enter the subway station and see many people coming and going, they get incredibly excited. Going through the security checkpoint and hearing the beeping sounds from the gates further fuels their excitement. Security personnel tell them, "Kids, you're not dangerous, you can go through now," which makes them feel proud all the way.

When they arrived at the amusement park entrance, they became even more excited and couldn't help but scream. Fortunately, the amusement park had a lot of music and many children, so their screams didn't make it any noisier.

An Fusheng had already bought his tickets in advance, so he went straight through security and entered the gate.

They arrived relatively early, but the amusement park was already packed with people.

As soon as we entered, everyone saw a huge, luxurious carousel. Their eyes lit up, especially the younger ones, who couldn't be stopped from running towards it.

When the carousel stopped, the whole family got on. Then the music started, and the carousel slowly rotated. The children sat on the carousel, looking at the colorful world in front of them, and shouted excitedly.

"Big brother, big brother, I'm moving!"

"It's not you moving, it's the carousel that's moving!"

"The whole world is in motion!"

"So beautiful!"

...

A few minutes later, the carousel gradually came to a stop. The children were having so much fun that they didn't want to get off. Seeing that there wasn't much of a line, the family rode it again. Some of them wanted to ride it again, but An Fusheng said there were even more fun rides to come, so they reluctantly left. However, they soon discovered that there were indeed even more fun rides to come!

There's a rainbow slide, trampolines, a steam train, bumper cars (which An Shisi really wanted to ride), and even an animal park! There are also animal shows!

This was An Fusheng's first time at an amusement park in both his lives. He had initially thought that amusement parks were similar to shopping malls with a few rides, just bigger and more crowded. He was surprised to find so many fun rides, including many for adults. It was just that it wasn't very convenient for him to ride with his children. However, he and his younger siblings had a great time playing the rides suitable for children, like the rainbow slide, which was thrilling as they rushed down the colorful slides. The bumper cars were also a lot of fun, especially the ones where he and An Shisi dominated!

If he didn't need to take care of the kids, he'd like to ride roller coasters, the pendulum ride, and the drop tower!

After playing on the rides all morning, our battery was running low, so the family went to the amusement park's cafeteria for lunch. After lunch, we watched an animal show and then fed the animals.

Wen Xinglan fell deeply in love with feeding small animals. He caught a little rabbit and fed it carrot sticks. The rabbit refused to leave, no matter how much they pleaded or tried to persuade it. They pretended not to hear him and cried when they tried to pick it up. No one could do anything about it, so they had to let him feed it. In the end, the rabbit was fed until it was in a trance. Its body was completely still, its eyes were vacant, and its mouth was no longer moving.

An Fusheng suspected that the rabbit had been overfed by the carrots Wen Xinglan fed it, but the zookeeper didn't ask them to compensate for the rabbit, so there should still be hope.

By around four o'clock in the afternoon, everyone except An Fusheng and Ji Fengnian had run out of energy. Wen Xinglan and Wen Xingmou had already fallen asleep, and the others were lying on the rest chairs, refusing to move.

An Shisi even said, "Brother, let's stay at the amusement park so we can continue playing tomorrow."

There are hotels inside the amusement park, but I didn't make any plans this morning. I didn't bring any toiletries, so how am I going to stay there? Besides, I have to go to work tomorrow.
