Lycia tilted her head back, blinked her bright eyes, and laughed, "Brother Chen Ping, we want to be the first to try your cooking! Your baking is the best!"
As she spoke, she took Ao Yunyu's hand, and the two of them put on a pleading expression. Their innocent and adorable expressions were hard to refuse.
Ailai and Yimoer, who were standing nearby, also came over. Although they didn't take the direct "offensive" like Licia and Ao Yunyu, their eyes were full of anticipation, as if silently saying, "We want to eat it too."
Chen Ping was amused by this scene. He put down the barbecue grill, squatted down, and patted the heads of the little ones.
He said gently, "Alright, alright, how could Brother Chen Ping forget you? Come on, everyone pick your favorite one, but remember to share it with the other children."
Upon hearing this, the little ones cheered immediately, carefully selecting items around the barbecue grill, and even recommending and discussing which looked the most delicious.
Laughter filled the barbecue area, and the adults were also infected by this innocence, their faces beaming with warm smiles.
Gabrielle and Angelica walked over from a short distance away, each carrying a small dessert specially made for the children. They were also attracted by the scene and joined in.
Gabriel chuckled softly, "It seems you're quite popular, Chen Ping. Even our little angels and elves can't resist your barbecue charm."
Angelica added with a smile, "Yes, these are precious moments. Seeing them happy warms our hearts."
Lucifer and Seraphim kept the campfire burning steadily not far away, occasionally joining the children's games, throwing beanbags and playing football. They seemed to have rediscovered their long-lost childlike innocence.
Bathed in the firelight, their figures appeared exceptionally warm, as if all their worries had melted away in the cozy night.
Throughout the night, the beach at Heart of the Island was filled with laughter, songs, and a joyful atmosphere. This barbecue feast was not just a celebration, but also a feast to deepen the bonds between people.
......
The next morning, sunlight streamed into the room.
Chen Ping slowly opened his eyes, glanced at the sunlight outside the window, gently pulled his arm out of Gabriel's arms, got out of bed, and walked downstairs to the bathroom while yawning.
Gabriel was startled awake when Chen Ping withdrew his arm, but after glancing at Chen Ping, she changed her position and went back to sleep. She was tired from exercising yesterday and was sleepy.
After washing up and changing into some simple clothes, Chen Ping decided to go to the kitchen to prepare breakfast.
He figured that after last night's happy gathering, everyone would enjoy a warm, family-style breakfast. In the kitchen, he skillfully fried eggs, toasted bread, cooked a pot of fragrant oatmeal, and sliced several plates of fresh fruit.
Gabriel woke up soon after. She combed her long, smooth hair, changed into casual clothes, and tiptoed downstairs to the kitchen.
Seeing Chen Ping's busy figure, a gentle smile appeared on her face. She quietly walked to his side, gently hugged Chen Ping's waist from behind, rested her head on his back, and whispered, "Good morning, thank you for your hard work."
Chen Ping tilted his head slightly, a doting smile on his face, and replied softly, "Good morning, you can rest a little longer, breakfast will be ready soon."
Soon, breakfast was ready, and Chen Ping and Gabrielle served the food to the table together.
As the morning light streamed through the windows, the room gradually brightened, and Lucifer, Angelica, Seraphim, and the little ones woke up one after another, drawn to the dining room by the aroma of food.
At the dining table, everyone sat together, enjoying a simple breakfast, chatting about everyday matters and the fun things that happened last night, in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
The little radish heads also shared their little secrets and dreams, filling the whole morning with warmth and happiness.
After the meal, Chen Ping suggested that everyone take a walk along the coastline of the Heart of the Divine Island to feel the tranquility and beauty of the morning light.
Everyone readily agreed, and so the group strolled slowly along the beach. The sea breeze was gentle, the waves lapped against the shore, and seagulls soared in the distance. Everything seemed exceptionally peaceful and harmonious.
On the way, they encountered several tribesmen who were doing their morning exercises. They greeted each other warmly and shared the freshness and vitality of the morning.
Children chased and played on the beach, occasionally picking up pretty seashells or building sandcastles. Their innocent laughter filled the air, adding more vitality to the morning.
......
During the walk, Chen Ping laughed and said, "This kind of life suits me best. It's relaxing, without any worries, and I don't have to think too much or worry about this or that."
Upon hearing this, Lucifer smiled wryly and said helplessly, "You're relieved, but I'm different. Demons in hell love to fight, but now that heaven is gone, the battlefield between angels and demons is gone too."
For a moment, I really couldn't find a place where the demons could vent their frustrations; just thinking about it made me anxious.
Hearing Lucifer's complaint, Angelica couldn't help but laugh and said, "How about you send the demons into the abyss to fight the beings within? They can even train on the spot, what do you think?"
Lucifer shook his head and said, "No, the Abyss and Hell are separate entities. No one else can enter except me, who can open the gates of the Abyss. So this method doesn't work."
Seraphim, holding Lucifer's hand, laughed and said, "What's so difficult about that? It's very simple. Doesn't the Heart of the Isle of God have that paradise? Fighting in the paradise not only makes you unafraid of death, but also satisfies the demon's fighting desires."
Moreover, this amusement park can be greatly developed, eventually becoming a battle amusement park that allows most forces in the core sea area to participate. At that time, it will be even more attractive than the Death Arena!
Upon hearing this, Chen Ping retorted, "How could that be? The Death Arena has prizes. Paradise Games is still just a game after all. How could it compare to the Death Arena?"
"Not to mention, they're from the government, Serafine, are you sure you're not courting death?"
Seraphin turned to look at Chen Ping, shook his head, and said, "No, no, no, you don't understand. The Death Arena does have some good prizes, but Chen Ping, don't forget about them."
In the Death Arena, death is truly certain; in the Paradise, it's different. Besides, it's just a prize. We could design a leaderboard and points system, then open a points shop and add some prizes.
Furthermore, the prizes will be tiered; the higher the tier, the better the items you can buy in the points shop. We don't lack resources anyway, and besides, if it really becomes a hit, why worry about income?
