I was too embarrassed to go inside.

After all, I'm almost forty in terms of mental age, it's really embarrassing to still be playing this game.

"Go quickly, look how happy she is, don't let your girlfriend down," the waiter said with a smile.

All right.

Let's play!

Chu Yang took off his shoes and walked in with heavy steps.

Then a big ball hit him on the head.

"Haha..." Shen Li smiled brightly, bent down and picked up a few more bubble balls and threw them over.

Since he was already there, Chu Yang decided to let go of his shame and play a ball-ball battle with her.

There were other children in the ball pit, and seeing this, they all joined in the battle, splitting into two camps and fighting fiercely.

The scene was filled with joyful laughter.

Surprisingly, as he played, Chu Yang actually rediscovered the joy of his childhood.

After the ball-ball battle ended, Shen Li dragged him off to play in the bouncy castle, with Lego bricks and a trampoline...

To cover up his embarrassment, Chu Yang recruited a few children to follow along, and they all became his leaders.

Shen Li was having a great time, and a bright smile, as radiant as a flower, was always on her face. She was genuinely happy.

Seeing the beads of sweat on her forehead, Chu Yang suggested going to buy her a drink.

"What would you like to drink?" he asked.

“Juice!” Shen Li said.

"Okay, I'll go buy it."

"Then you'd better hurry up and come."

Chu Yang nodded, left the amusement park, found a juice shop, and bought three cups of mango juice.

The bearded Arno was leaning against the amusement park fence, his gaze fixed on Shen Li, looking very dedicated.

Chu Yang handed him a glass of juice, but didn't go in immediately. Instead, he stood next to him.

"Brother Arno, what do you do for a living?"

Arno turned his head and looked him up and down a few times, took a sip of juice, and said nothing.

Chu Yang looked slightly embarrassed.

Shen Li watched as she played happily with the children in the amusement park.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Isn't your young lady a little... childish?"

Arno replied without hesitation: "Yes!"

Chu Yang chuckled silently.

Does she come here often?

"She's only been here once, and she brought her little cousin with her."

"Then you are..."

“I’m her older cousin. I drive for her and am responsible for her safety.”

"..."

"She dragged me to play with her back then, we played with those bubble balls." Arno sighed deeply, as if it were a painful memory.

That expression seemed to say, "Now you know why I feel ashamed, right?"

Chu Yang could also imagine that scene.

A burly, bearded man was throwing balls into a ball pit...

“Actually, you can’t say she’s naive. It’s just that she’s never played these kinds of games since she was little, and she rarely interacts with the outside world. She has a rather cold and aloof personality. You’re the first friend she’s willing to get close to,” Arno said.

Then, with a fierce look in his eyes, he said, "You better not get any funny ideas, or I'll twist your head off!"

Chu Yang simply smiled slightly, showing no sign of being frightened.

Your uncle was drunk by me last night, how could he be intimidated by you, his nephew?

I was about to stand there a little longer when Shen Li looked over and waved, saying she wanted some juice.

Chu Yang went back inside, and the juicer had already inserted a straw and handed it to her.

Shen Li took it and drank two delicious sips.

"Thank you, you're such a kind person!"

Chu Yang: "..."

He tossed the "friend zone" card aside and snatched her juice.

Do you still think I'm a good person?

"...Bad guy!"

Chu Yang was satisfied and handed the juice back to her.

Even when he did something bad, Shen Li would look at him with anger.

"Alright, I was just kidding. Are you tired of playing? How about we go somewhere else?" Chu Yang said with a smile.

"Okay!" Shen Li smiled again, then seriously considered where to go for fun.

Hopefully, it's not another place for little kids to play.

Chu Yang thought to himself.

Shen Li said, "Let's go to the bookstore!"

Chu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

This place is normal.

After saying goodbye to the children they had just played with, the two left the amusement park and called to the bearded Arnold to go somewhere else.

There is a bookstore in the mall.

As you enter, you are greeted by the clear sound of wind chimes.

Chu Yang felt the voice was somewhat familiar, and subconsciously asked the cashier, "Hello, do you sell Peninsula Tin Boxes?"

The girl didn't even look up: "No."

"..."

Shen Li gave him a strange look.

Chu Yang remained calm and asked, "What kind of book would you like to read?"

Shen Li blurted out: "Comic book!"

"……All right."

Actually, reading comics isn't childish; many adults read comics.

During this period, Chu Yang's family collected Dragon Ball and Slam Dunk.

But to everyone's surprise, what Shen Li wanted to see was actually a cat staring at her crotch?

This is really a comic book for kids...

Seeing that she was engrossed in reading, Chu Yang didn't say anything and casually picked up a book from the bookshelf.

Upon looking at the cover, wow, it's titled "How to Enter the Inner World of a Rich Woman"?

That's quite fitting for the occasion.

The woman in front of me, Shen Li, is definitely a wealthy young lady.

However, Chu Yang had no intention of marrying a rich woman. Earning money by working hard was too arduous, and he would definitely be drained dry in the long run.

I switched to "The First Intimate Contact" and plan to reread this pioneering work of online novels.

The bearded Arnold, meanwhile, had a copy of "A Step into the Past" in his hand and was squatting in the corner, his eyes shining as he read it.

They're probably looking for the racing scenes in the book.
