Sonata: Fleeing to Avoid an Arranged Marriage - Chapter 35

Chapter 35

The couple s set is a small bowl of soup, a small plate of fried noodles, and a small bowl of steamed eggs.
But the tobleware for the dishes is very delicate, and the steamed eggs look lovely with a heart-shaped mold.
The taste of Yu s restauront naturally goes without saying, and Mi Qing is still very satisfied with the mini couples' set
tt was atso almost two o’clock by the time they finished lunch. Mi Qing thought Xiao Gu would drive straight home, but after watching him turn a comof. she asked with o little uncertainty. "Aren’t we going home?"
Xiao Gu was concentrating on driving ond didn't look at her either "Go to an amusement park, don't you like children's parks?"
Mi Qing: "..."
This is all a misunderstanding!

But yesterday, Zhou Yiran also said that he was going to take her to an amusement park today, as if there was some kind of event. She said to Xiao Gu. "I heard there's an event at the amusement park today."
"Huh? Is that what Zhou Yiran said?"
Mi Qing wrinkled her nose and asked rhetorically. "Yeah, what2s up?"
Xiao Gu silently swerved around the intersection ahead, not speaking again.
Although it wasn't the weekend, the amusement pork was so crowded that Xiao Gu almost didn't find a parking space.
Getting out of the car. he went to the ticket office and bought two tickets, handed one to Mi Qing. and joined her in the queue for the checking of their tickets. Mi Qing looked at the ticket in her hand, which cost over three hundred yuan. She looked up at xioo Gu beside her and sold to him. "It was you who suggested coming to the amusement pork, so I won't repay the ticket money oh."
Xiao Gu couldn't help but feel amused: "Are you really the little princess of a rich family? Is three hundred bucks or so really that a big deal?"

Mi Qing snorted at him with what looks like "What's it with you?": "Whoever stipulated that the rich can't care about more than three hundred bucks? The rich have a right to be greedy too."
Previously, she hod bought lucky bags and Huo Li also said something similar. Not only was thore nothing remarkoble to soo in tho bag, but the price is also very low. The quality wasn’t as good as the boutiques usually sell But she just likes to buy. Who says rich people can't buy things on sale?
Xiao Gu couldn’t help but grin the more he listened to Mi Qing: "Then, I'll be Santa who made the little princess greedy today, that okay?"
Mi Qing snorted and was satisfied with this attitude of his in short, just don’t let her pay tho tickets She's really going to have to bo a down-and-out princess for throo hundred bucks it took some timo for tho two in line to get to the ticket gate, and it had to be mentioned that during the queue, there were quite a few little girls in the line looking at Xiao Gu and kept on whispering.

Mi Qing felt that they were still to young.

Upon entering the amusement partk, the cheerful Christmas carols could be heard everywhere, and there is a Christmas tree at the entrance, with Santa Claus and reindeer dressed staff standing next to it, taking pictures with passersby.

Mi Qing excitedly stepped forward, "Let's go take a picture too!"

Xiao Gu stuck his hands in his coat pockets and followed behind her: "This kind of group photo must be charged for."

Mi Qing turned around and asked: "Is it necessary to use my mobile phone to pay?

"Of course."

Mi Qing's brow furrowed. "Isn't there our ticket pass?"

Xiao Gu laughed, "Entertainment facillities can be made free of charge, but for other small vendors with this kind of group photo, you think it's inclusive of the ticket?"

Mi Qing said seriously: "I think so."

Xiao Gu walked up and patted her on the head. "It's a good thing you don't often visit the amusement park."

Mi Qing: "..."

"Talking the talk, why do you have to move your hands?" She groamed her chestnut curls and followe Xiao Gu inside.

Passing by the Christmas tree, thre reindeer worker waved warmly at her, seemingly inviting her over for a group photo.

Mi Qing tangled for a moment, still couldn't resist the temptation. Lured, she walked over and stood next to the reindeer: "Quick, use your phone to take a picture of us."

Xiao Gu glanced at her helplesly. But still, he took out his own phone and snapped a picture in their direction.

Mi Qing wanted to run after the photo was taken. But the reindeer quickly grabbed her, his reaction faster than a certaion young man's treasure hunting ability: "Twenty yuan."

He grinned at Mi Qing and quated a number, and Mi Qing fought back a little, still trying to run, and the reindeer gripped her even tighter: "Twenty."

This time the tone was obviously not as cordial as last time. Xiao Gu came up and grave the reindeer twenty yuan before Mi Qing was released.

"It's too easy to get money for that, isn't it?" Mi Qing tidied up her messy clothes and hair indignantly. If she can earn twenty yuan for a single wink, she should come here tomorrow dressed as Snow White, never mind working as a waitress.

Done prepping she glanced at Xiao Gu beside her. "Show me the picture you just took."

Xiao Gu handed his phone over and a photo of her was displayed on the screen. After looking at it, Mi Qing was very dissatified with this photo: "It's too ugly even for you, is this the quality of a group photo worth 20 yuan?"

The corner of Xiao Gu's mouth as he returned. "Twenty yuan is for that reindeer. I'm free of charge, free for this quality."

Mi Qing: "..."

"And paid the twenty for that reindeer." Xiao Gu calmly added another cut.

Mi Qing: "..."

"Then send the picture to me." She wrinkled her nose and took her phone out as well, turning on Bluettooth.

After receiving it, she looked at the ugly picture, and pondered whether to delete it or not.

If she doesn't delete it. it's so ugly. It affects her image. But if she deletes it, that's another 20 yuan. She thought for a while and raised her head to look at Xiao Gu. "Delete the copy on your phone first"
Xiao Gu raised his eyebrows, not intending to do as the little princess ordered: ‘That's what I paid for. I took the picture."
Mi Qing: "But the person in the photo is me!"
"That's why I don't want to delete it"
Mi Qing was stunned. Her oars turned red instantly and after glaring at him. sbo turned and ran away.
Xiao Gu followed her all the way. took the pirate ship, roller coaster, swing and even watched a stoge play for a while.
After playing for more than two hours. Mi Qing finally got tired. Xiao Gu bought two hams and walked with her towards the fairy tale town.

Passing a shooting booth on the way. Mi Qing spotted a rabbit doll inside, jumped and bought five coins. followed the ownof for a minute to learn how to shoot, and started playing with the doll.
Without any suspense, all bullets missed.
She unhappily bought another five coins and asked the boss. "Can that rabbit stay put?"
The boss chuckled. "Those toys in front don't move, just hit them."
Mi Qing pursed her lips and looked at the toys in the top few rows. They were still, but they are also ugly. She just wanted the rabbit.
Xiao Gu, wbo hod boon watching from the side, suddenly opened his mouth and said. "Don't be sily, even if they don’t move, you can't hit anything."
Mi Qing: "..."
She let go of the gun and yelled at Xiao Gu. "You can do it hit that rabbit."

Xiao Gu smiled and walked forward with the firing gun.
The rabbit that Mi Qing had her eye on was a koychain with long rabbit oars and a smal sarong, which was indeed quite delicate and cute. But it's in the last row. which made it even smaller, and with movement, it's difficult.
Xiao Gu's index finger was on the trigger, silently aiming, like a lion lurking in the forest waiting for his prey.
Looking at the timer, he didn’t hesitate to pull the trigger and the bullet hit the sign in front of the rabbit the sign of the manual punch bringing the rabbit down with it.
"Great, hit!" Mi Qing almost jumped with joy.
The boss's face turned ugly. But he didn’t say anything either, and just brought the rabbit over to them.

Mi Qing received the rabbit and squeezed it in her hand, happily saying. "I still have four coins left shoot that little red-lipped pouch!"
Xiao Gu didn't say anything, but roally aimod his gun at the red-lipped pouch.
As the bullet Hew out the red-lipped pouch also went down.
"Another shot! You're amazing!" Mi Qing really jumped up this time, almost rushing up to hug Xiao Gu and give him a kiss. "How could you be so powerful?"
Xiao Gu: "Didn't l tell you? The club I was a member in at college was the shooting department, and we won awards in the city."
Shop owner: "..."
He thought he would be safe as long as he avoided snipers and the police. He didn't expect the university to sneak in with such a society.
When the boss handed Mi Qing the red-lipped pouch, she excitedly asked Xiao Gu to knock down another banana charm as well.

The owner's heart tightened, and when he turned his head to look, the banana pendant was already dead in battle.
He pursed his lips ond spoke grovely to Xiao Gu. “When a boyfnend listens so much to his girlfriend, he will have no place in the family after marriage."
When he finished, he came over to Xiao Gu's side again and whispered. "Noble warrior, we are all out to make a living, you've ransacked my place. I'll have to kneel for the remote control board when I get home."
Xiao Gu couldn't help but smile as Mi Qing had already picked out another new toy. pointing at it for Xioo Gu. "That one!"
Xiao Gu put down his gun and gave the remaining two coins to Mi Qing: "I demonstrated three times, you do the rest two times."
Mi Qing refused: "I can't hit it, go ohead. I want that hairpin."
Xiao Gu leaned close to Mi Qing and whispered in her ear "If the boss suffers too badly, we may not be able to leave later."

Yes! Just like in a casino where you win a lot of money, the owner won't let you go that easily!
She glanced at the sturdy but cunning-looking boss, thinking that he must have some connections with the other stalls here, and that there might be some thugs hiding nearby. She s better off not seeing them.
She used the lost two coins herself and missed even the ugly hair tie in the middle of the first row.
After seeing them go, the shopkeoper finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Xiao Gu and Mi Qing left the shooting shop and then walked towards the fairy town.
The houses in the fairy tale town were all built with fairy tale colors, and Mi Qing walked inside with a feeling of reality and fantasy intermingling. This is not only the catering area for dining, but also a shopping center.

The two looked for a restourant that offers Chinese fast food and ordered something casual. Since the shop was already full, they had to sit outside at an open table.
Fortunately, fast food is served really fast and they didn't have to freeze on the roodside for waiting too long.
Mi Qing ordered a bowl of noodles. Tho mouth of the bowl was bigger than her face, but it was so shallow she could only find a few strings of noodles in it, nothing more. She ate a chopstick of noodles and said to Xioo Gu. "It's not as good as the noodles you've made."
Xiao Gu frankly accepted her compliment. "lt should be. after all. I am a chef and my salary is definitely higher than his."
Mi Qing laughed and ate her noodles in a stifled voice.
Halfway through the meal, she remembered the event she was talking about earlier again "By the way. what was the event here today?"

Xioo Gu's noodles were already finished He took a sip of the lemonade in his glass and answered Mi Qing. "A twenty-five meter toll Christmas tree has been put up here, it’s placed in the fairy town, it will be officially lit after dark today, followed by some performances, it should be very lively."
"Wow, 25 meters." Mi Qing tried to picture it. and her neck couldn't help but tilt up.
"I hear it's at 6:30. It's still twenty minutes or so to go."
Hearing Xioo Gu say that. Mi Qing quickly finished the rest of the noodles.
By the time she and Xioo Gu walked up to that Christmas tree, there was alreody a crowd of people aroundi Not only is there a Christmas tree, but there's also an oversized red gift box that's built right next to the tree with colored lights all around it, which would surely look great when it's lit.

There were already quite a few people taking pictures together, so Mi Qing casualty took one and strolled around the perimeter.
She went into a gift shop that wasn't too big. but was filled with a wide array of Christmas gifts. Mi Qing looked around and was attracted by a set of products surrounding the fairy tale collection.
There ore four foiry tale themes in this set. Alice in Wonderland. Snow White. Little Red Riding Hood and the Little Mermaid. The products range from eye shadows, mirrors to hats, scarves and even dresses.
Mi Qing couldn t take her eyes off of it ond thought that Alice's bag was cute too. as was this little red bag with the cape.
Seeing her intently looking at the set. the shop assistant came over and introduced her. "These are Christmas specials, limited edition our bestseller."
Mi Qing nodded. Thinking that she was about to run out of eyeshadow, she decided to buy one. Among the four fairy tales, there's the silhouette of Mr. Bunny on the Alice eye shodow box. so she picked up the Alice eye shadow almost without hesitation.

The box is very cute, and besides the bunny on (he outside of the box. there are also small carvings of hearts and spades ond teapots inside, which look very dolicate. There wore only four colors of eyeshadow, ond the amount was not much. Mi Qing flipped to the back and looked at the price tag. rt was over eight hundred yuan.
She was caught in a tangle again, if it were before, she would have bought it without saying a word But now, she has to calculate even more than eight hundred yuan.
It's too sad. she wants to cry thinking about it.
She narrowed her eyes and considered for a while, and was about to take it when Xioo Gu called out to her from behind. "There are still a few minutes left, let’s go."
His call was like a pin piercing a bloated blister, and the determination Mi Qing had just built faltered again: "Oh."
She smiled apologetically at the clerk and walked out of the store.

There were more people outside than just now and staff were maintaining order on the scene, doing final checks.
Mi Qing glanced around ond saw Xiao Gu lagging behind Finding him she squirmod bock, tilting her head to look at the tall Christmas tree.
It was beautifully decorated, with colored lights going around it in circles to the top. plus a five-pointed star placed at the top, which should also be powered. Except for waiting, the tree is also decorated with Christmas ornaments, such as stockings, snowmen, and so on.
With ten seconds left the timer next to the Christmas tree lit up counting down from ten Only then did Xiao Gu walk to Mi Qing's side.
She didn't even take her eyes off him and asked. 'Why are you walking so slowly?’
Xioo Gu merely handed her a delicate little paper bag.
Mi Qing glanced at the paper bag and froze, wasn't this the Alice eye shadow she had just been staring at?

She raised a brow and asked Xiao Gu. "When did you buy it?"
"Just now." Xioo Gu looked at her and said. ‘Don’t you want it?’
Mi Qing's eyes widened, the countdown in her ears blurring away.
"...3,2,1!"
As the last number fell, the lights all around were lit simultaneously in a flash, and the whole world seemed to light up.
The colorful neon of light projection flashed in Mi Qing's eyes, and Xiao Gu's silhouette was reflected shallowly in her pupils.
Xiao Gu couldn't help but smile, and amidst the cheers from everyone, he leaned down a bit and placed a kiss on Mi Qing's lips.
