"How can you be so unfeeling towards your young master? Your young master has been holding me all the way in the haunted house. Won't he get tired?
Or do you want to share some of the burden with your young master and hold me yourself?" Yun Shunnian turned to look at Shan Gong not far away, her tone quite displeased.
It wasn't that Yun Shunnian was truly blaming Mu Qi, but Mu Qi's silence made her anxious.
Yun Shunnian's words caused Shan Gong to repeatedly wave his hands. For Shan Gong, Yun Shunnian's last sentence made him feel like he had it too good.
If it weren't for his status, Shan Gong would have really liked to tell Yun Shunnian about the kind of life he led.
Not only did he have to endure being force-fed dog food every day until he was stuffed, but he also had to be mindful of the young master's increasingly unfathomable temper due to Yun Shunnian, making Shan Gong feel like he was walking on a tiger's back.
"Mu Qi, how about we go to the hospital?" Facing Mu Qi, who hadn't uttered a word, Yun Shunnian was truly at a loss.
Although she wanted to play here and find inspiration for surprising Mu Qi, Mu Qi's current state truly worried her, and she couldn't put her mind at ease.
Just as Yun Shunnian thought Mu Qi still wouldn't speak and she would have to take him to the hospital, Mu Qi grabbed her hand.
"Let's go, aren't we going to play something else?" Mu Qi looked at Yun Shunnian's gaze that was constantly on him, feeling an indescribable sense of satisfaction in his heart.
"Are you alright then?" Yun Shunnian found Mu Qi's rare smile at the corner of his lips very strange.
"I'm fine." As soon as he knew Yun Shunnian didn't mean to distance herself from him, the untamable fierceness in Mu Qi's eyes receded like a tide.
Yun Shunnian looked at Mu Qi a few more times. Seeing that Mu Qi was truly fine, she swung his hand and skipped forward happily.
However, after walking hand in hand for a full circle, Yun Shunnian still hadn't found any entertainment she wanted to try.
It was simply because these rides were too thrilling. Yun Shunnian felt that this amusement park, built for children, was truly amazing. She, an old aunt, could no longer handle it.
"Mu Qi, I'm so tired and thirsty." Yun Shunnian bent over with difficulty, fanning her flushed face with her small hand.
"I'll carry you." Mu Qi crouched down in front of Yun Shunnian.
Shan Gong accidentally glanced at Mu Qi like this, then immediately averted his gaze.
Looking at the broad back in front of her, Yun Shunnian unhesitatingly climbed onto it. Just as Mu Qi was about to stand up, Yun Shunnian stopped him.
"No, just rest like this for a while." Mu Qi remained still as instructed.
Shan Gong, who couldn't resist turning back to witness more of their affection, remembered a brother.
He remembered the days when Mu Qi and his brothers trained together in isolation, and how close they had become.
After a thirty-mile march with full load, a dizzy brother, seeing Mu Qi's back, stumbled towards him.
However, Mu Qi unexpectedly kicked him into the nearby grass.
The man, forcing his eyes open, pointed at the young master before finally passing out.
Shan Gong shook his head. When he came back to his senses and saw Mu Qi in front of him, so gentle that Yun Shunnian was leaning on him, his emotions became complex, and he turned his head away again.
"Mu Qi, I'm thirsty," Yun Shunnian whispered in Mu Qi's ear. Mu Qi felt a tickle and his earlobes turned red.
Mu Qi said, "Have Shan Gong go buy it."
"Mmm~ But I want my husband to buy it himself," Yun Shunnian said coquettishly in a sweet voice.
Under the scorching heat, Mu Qi's heart trembled, and he felt a hint of coolness.
Hearing Yun Shunnian's words, Shan Gong felt that she was being incredibly demanding.
The young master had already stooped down for her, and it still wasn't enough; she had to torment him like this.
However, before Shan Gong could proactively go buy water for Yun Shunnian, Mu Qi agreed.
Looking at Yun Shunnian's profile, Shan Gong found it hard not to feel disgusted.
"I want a cup of black tea and an ice cream," Yun Shunnian said to Mu Qi as she got up from his back, placing her hands on his arms, for fear that Mu Qi might get dizzy if he stood up suddenly.
Mu Qi responded and then walked away in a direction Yun Shunnian didn't know.
Yun Shunnian marveled at Mu Qi's excellent sense of direction. Unlike her, even after walking a full circle, she still had no idea where the place to buy things was.
Shan Gong remembered the purpose of Mu Qi asking him to follow and intended to ignore Yun Shunnian and follow Mu Qi.
However, Yun Shunnian suddenly spoke. Considering Yun Shunnian's importance to Mu Qi, Shan Gong still stopped.
"I'm not deliberately tormenting Mu Qi. I've been squatting for too long, and my blood circulation has slowed down. I need to walk a few steps to promote circulation."
Yun Shunnian's voice sounded behind Shan Gong. Shan Gong paused for a moment, then immediately walked towards Mu Qi.
His dislike for Yun Shunnian naturally subsided, but he was never good at apologizing or expressing his emotions, so he could only flee in such a flustered manner.
Yun Shunnian, of course, didn't care much about Shan Gong's reaction.
To Yun Shunnian, Shan Gong was someone by Mu Qi's side who protected his safety, and Yun Shunnian naturally didn't want Mu Qi's close associate to misunderstand her.
The place to buy things was not far from here, so Yun Shunnian waited for a while and became extremely bored.
Suddenly, Yun Shunnian's gaze casually landed on a place selling various cotton candies not far away.
A Mickey Mouse made of blue and pink stripes tickled Yun Shunnian's fancy. Seeing that the place wasn't too far, Yun Shunnian got up from the bench and walked over.
However, just as Yun Shunnian got closer to the cotton candy stall, her shoelace suddenly tripped her, and she lunged forward.
Fortunately, Yun Shunnian didn't make intimate contact with the ground but fell into a man's arms.
A fresh scent of soap bean fragrance wafted towards her. Yun Shunnian wanted to get up, so she could only support herself on the man's shoulder.
"Are you alright?" A clear, sunny voice sounded in Yun Shunnian's ear. Squinting against the light, she saw the man in front of her, dressed in white jeans and with a buzz cut.
