Upon hearing this, Fang Zicheng pretended to have heard a loud fart. It was fine to listen to Fang Zikai’s words, but it was not good to believe them.
“Yes.” Even though he was suspicious of his brother’s words, Fang Zicheng still gave Fang Zikai a cold reply.
Fang Zikai knew Fang Zicheng very well and could tell that Fang Zicheng was patronizing him. Knowing that his brother did not believe him, Fang Zikai quickly raised two fingers and swore to the heavens, “Brother, I’m serious. I definitely won’t spend money recklessly next time…”
Fang Zikai was a little talkative. When he swore, he chattered non-stop. His mouth was like a tap without a switch. Fang Zicheng had always been a person with great patience, but he also despised Fang Zikai for being noisy. The little boy’s face suddenly became serious.
He turned around and glanced at Fang Zikai with his cold and heartless eyes. He said, “Shut up. Don’t speak.” His tone was flat, like an ice cube melting quietly. It was chilling.
Fang Zicheng did not even need to speak. He only needed to put on a cold face for Fang Zikai to be so frightened that he did not dare to speak.
He quickly covered his mouth, afraid that he would accidentally make a sound and disturb his brother.
A wise man submits to circ.u.mstances.
At three o’clock, three girls in mermaid bikinis jumped into the gla.s.s pool from the entrance of the roof. Their mermaid costumes were especially beautiful. When the little girls saw the mermaids, they could not help but exclaim, “Wow! They’re so beautiful!”
Even Gu Yiqiu, the little cla.s.s bully, revealed an excited expression when she saw the mermaids.
The children leaned behind the gla.s.s railing and widened their eyes, staring at everything in the gla.s.s water tank. To them, this world was still beautiful. At such a young age, they did not know the dangers of the world or the viciousness of people.
What they saw was everything that had been beautified.
Fang Zicheng’s attention was not on the mermaids, but the oxygen tanks on their backs. He could not help but imagine that if the oxygen tanks on the mermaid performers suddenly lost their oxygen supply, would they die inside?
After watching the mermaid performance, it was almost four o’clock.
The school stipulated that they would return to school at five in the afternoon. There was still an hour before Teacher King Kong brought them to the East Lake to see the scenery.
The East Lake was the center of this Happy Valley. It was surrounded by mountains on three sides, and a wooden fence surrounded the lake to prevent tourists from accidentally falling in. Beside the lake, there were imitation wooden signs everywhere. On them were words warning people not to enter the lake privately.
Fang Zikai pointed at the sign and asked his brother, “What does it say?”
Fang Zicheng said, “The lake is deep. It’s forbidden to enter the lake privately.”
Fang Zikai nodded. “I understand.”
The scenery here at the East Lake was very pleasant. On the lake, groups of beautiful swans could be seen playing. A few of them raised their necks and were s.n.a.t.c.hing the swans thrown down by the tourists to feed themselves. Gu Yiqiu stared at a pure black swan and shouted at Fang Zikai, “Kai Kai, come quickly. Let’s take a selfie!”
Fang Zikai ran over.
The two of them leaned against the wooden fence. Behind them was the East Lake and the swans playing on the lake. Gu Yiqiu aimed the camera at her side and placed her chubby arm on Fang Zikai’s shoulder. Fang Zikai stood foolishly and did not move.
Gu Yiqiu said, “When I shout one, two, three, raise your hand.”
“Okay!”
“One, two, three!”
Fang Zikai raised his hand and this scene was taken by Gu Yiqiu.
A child brought enough pocket money and threw a tantrum in front of Teacher King Kong, asking him to bring them to buy souvenirs back for their families. Teacher King Kong agreed. He turned on his headset and told the children over and over again, “Everyone, don’t get close to the lake. Just watch from the side. The lake is more than ten meters deep. It’s very dangerous to fall into the water!”
Teacher King Kong said it five to six times before shouting, “Does anyone want to buy souvenirs? If you want to go, come with me. I’ll bring you there. Teacher w.a.n.g will stay and take care of the others.”
“I’ll go!”
“I’ll go!”
Everyone ran to Teacher King Kong’s side and chatted.
Fang Zikai said softly, “I want to go too.”
“Go then,” Gu Yiqiu said.
Fang Zikai added, “I have no money.”
Gu Yiqiu revealed an awkward expression. “I’ve already bought what I like.” She dug into her pockets and finally took out five yuan. “I only have five yuan.” She smiled awkwardly.
She stuffed the five yuan into Fang Zikai’s hand and said, “You can also buy a bottle of mineral water. After you buy it, you can bring it back. Your mom, dad, Fang Zicheng and you can take a sip.” After saying that, Gu Yiqiu probably thought of that scene and could not help but laugh.
Fang Zikai rolled his eyes at Gu Yiqiu.
He sized up the five yuan in his hand and felt a little tired. Last time, his brother had given him five yuan. This time, Boss had given him five yuan. Was he very fated with five yuan?
Fang Zikai pursed his lips and puffed up his round stomach like a tyc.o.o.n. He said, “I have a lot of money. You can keep this for yourself to buy candy.” He gave the five yuan back to Gu Yiqiu. Gu Yiqiu clicked her tongue and really took the money to the shop. When she returned, there were lollipops in her hand.
She gave the lollipops to many people and left one for Fang Zicheng.
When Gu Yiqiu handed him a lollipop, Fang Zicheng really wanted to reject it. He did not like candy. However, after hesitating for a long time, he still accepted it. She gave it to him because she thought highly of him. He did not eat it, but he could accept it.
Fang Zicheng took the candy and thanked her softly.
Gu Yiqiu rubbed her ears as if she could not believe that the cool man who did not say much would actually thank her.
After distributing the lollipops, Gu Yiqiu brought Fang Zikai to a wooden chair and sat down. The two of them sat together and looked at the photos, laughing from time to time. The teachers also had things they wanted to buy, so only one teacher was left behind to take care of the children. The rest ran to the small shop.
The teacher answered a call and walked to the side.
There were many children, and they were not afraid that someone would steal their children.
Fang Zikai and Gu Yiqiu were looking at the photo when suddenly, a shadow covered the camera in their hands. Gu Yiqiu and Fang Zikai looked up together and saw a stronger child.
This child was taller than them and was in another cla.s.s. It was said that he was the school bully.
The school bully was called Lin Xiong. From the name, he sounded very mighty and extraordinary. He was destined to cause trouble.
Lin Xiong glanced at Gu Yiqiu and Fang Zikai’s round stomachs with disdain. He snorted and said, “I was wondering who hit my brother. It’s actually a fat pig. Then it’s not that my brother is useless, but you’re too fat.”
Lin Xiong was always followed by a bunch of lackeys.
He was probably here to collect a debt for one of them. When Lin Xiong approached, Gu Yiqiu looked behind him. There was a familiar-looking brat in the group.
