io minutes later, he hung up the phone in a good mood. With brisk steps, he returned to the living room, and leisurely dug out the “Bears Boggle” CD from the TV cabinet and popped it in.
In a short while, the house filled with the voices of Big Bear, Second Bear, and the sound of Bald Qjang chopping wood…
When Chi Enen came out of the shower, she saw him bobbing his head to the television, eyes glued to the screen. Under the light, his little face looked as delicate as green onion tofu. Her heart instantly melted into a mess, and she walked over and sat down beside him. In a gentle voice, she apologized, “Baby, today was Mommy’s fault for coming home so late. 1 promise 1’11 come back earlier next time.”
Chi Jingchen gave her a glance with his eyes quickly returning to the TV, “You said the same thing last time.”
“…” Chi Enen was at a loss for words, unsure of how to respond, “Today was a special situation, 1…”
The little guy finally deigned to look at her. He paused the television and turned his face to pout, “Only if you take me to the Amusement Park tomorrow will I forgive you!”
“Tomorrow?”
“You have something else on tomorrow?” the little guy’s mood flared.
Chi Enen quickly soothed him, “It’s the weekend tomorrow, I’m free. But doesn’t your school have a garden event planned for tomorrow?”
“It’s not like it takes all day.”
“Alright, then I’ll pick you up in the afternoon.”
“No need, 1 made plans with Han Xiaoru. She said her dad’s taking us there tomorrow; you just have to wait for us in the Amusement Park.”
Han Xiaoru…
Chi Enen pictured in her mind a round-faced little girl with a ponytail, wearing a Princess Dress. Her eyes lit up with gossip as she looked at the little guy in front of her, “When did you two become good friends? Didn’t you always find her annoying before?”
“…” Han Xiaoru was annoying indeed, not just annoying but also a snot-nosed dummy! If it wasn’t for the sake of that woman’s lifelong matter, he wouldn’t have played with that dummy! Chi Jingchen held his breath with a slightly downcast handsome face and dismissed the subject with a big man’s pretense, “We just ended up playing together, alright, let’s just leave it at that.”
This temperament…
Chi Enen thought he was just shy and didn’t press further. After watching three episodes of “Bears Boggle” with him and coaxing him to sleep, she returned to her own room. She opened her laptop and started writing the gossip news she hadn’t finished before. She worked until 2 AM, managed to finish it, and after sending it to the editor-in-chief’s email, she yawned, placed the laptop on the table next to her, turned off the light, and went to sleep.
A good night’s dream.
The next day, Chi Enen put Bae Chi on the school bus and cleaned the house once more. After washing the clothes, she glanced at the time on the wall. She slipped into a blouse and denim, tied her hair into a ponytail, and stepped out.
No sooner had she left the house than a low-key Volkswagen followed her out the back door.
The Amusement Park that Chi Enen and Chi Jingchen agreed to meet at was in the city center. She calculated the time and realized she was early. She decided to take the bus there.
After waiting at the station for a bit, the bus slowly arrived.
She boarded, dropped in the fare, and found a seat by the window to sit down.
20 minutes later, the bus stopped at her destination. Chi Enen got off, walked a block, and arrived at the Amusement Park.
She looked around but couldn’t find anyone. She pulled out her mobile phone and made a call to Bae Chi.
“Dudu…” The phone rang for a dozen rings before it was picked up.
As soon as she heard the background music from the other end, she knew it wasn’t the music of the Amusement Park and couldn’t help but ask, “Baby Chi, where are you?”
