Chapter 126

Lu Lingchuan led Shen Nian towards the clothing area, pointing at the first row of two items of clothing with the same style but different sizes: "Couple outfits."

He said, "I want to wear a couple outfit."

Indeed, one of the 100 things they had to do was [Stroll while wearing a couple outfit].

Shen Nian glanced at the clothes, then looked at Lu Lingchuan half skeptically: "You... sure you want to wear that now?"

It wasn\'t that she didn\'t want to wear it; the clothes sold in amusement park gift shops were mostly cute styles, and Shen Nian could hardly imagine Lu Lingchuan wearing a couple outfit, with an adorable bear head in the front.

Lu Lingchuan insisted, "I want to wear it."

"......" Alright then.

Among the various styles of couple shirts, Shen Nian picked and chose, eventually settling on a khaki-colored long-sleeved hoodie set.

As the weather grew colder, these couple hoodies were thin and fuzzy, just right to wear without an outer coat.

The color wasn\'t bad; the women\'s had an oversized, super cute cartoon doll printed on the front, while the men\'s doll was a bit smaller, with enlarged letters.

Cute, yet not overly cute.

Shen Nian picked up the hanger, holding the two hoodies up against herself, her bright eyes fixed on Lu Lingchuan: "How about these?"

Lu Lingchuan nodded, unhesitatingly praising: "They look good."

Everything she picked looked good.

With no objections, the two settled on this outfit, paid for it first, then changed into it in the store\'s changing room.

When Shen Nian saw Lu Lingchuan in the khaki hoodie, her eyes lit up.

The man\'s looks were naturally not lacking; his chiseled features were distinct, his handsome face exquisite, with slender eyes beneath his sword-like brows that looked at Shen Nian with deep affection.

Even just wearing a hoodie and cargo pants, his slender waist and straight long legs were outlined impeccably.

Stripped of his formal suit, this hoodie color made him look much younger, like a fresh university graduate.

To avoid being recognized by acquaintances, they kept their masks on.

Even with his face covered, his height and figure still made him the focus of attention wherever he went.

Lu Lingchuan tugged at his own clothes, looking at Shen Nian and asking, "Does it look good?"

Shen Nian spoke honestly: "It looks good."

It had been a long time since she\'d seen him wear casual clothes other than suits and dress shirts.

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingchuan let out an amused laugh, his rich, magnetic voice lightly rippling in Shen Nian\'s ears. Though she couldn\'t see the smiling face behind his mask, his eyes crinkled, showing his excellent mood.

His pheromones radiated outward from him as the center, making people\'s hearts flutter.

Praised by Shen Nian, Lu Lingchuan was in an excellent mood, naturally putting his arm around Shen Nian\'s waist as they left. Passing by the hair accessory area, the man\'s eye was drawn to a khaki-colored item among the many cute headbands.

The headband was covered in soft, fuzzy fabric, with two little ears on either side, like a little bear.

Lu Lingchuan took an immediate liking to it, putting it on Shen Nian\'s head.

"What?" Feeling a headband on her head, Shen Nian instinctively reached to touch it.

Lu Lingchuan helped adjust it for her, then carefully looked her over, satisfied that it was as cute as he\'d imagined. Only then did the man nod contentedly.

He leaned down to kiss her face, his voice pleased and rich: "Let\'s go."

He took Shen Nian\'s hand and headed for the cashier: "Time to pay."

...

After buying the couple outfits, the two strolled hand-in-hand through the snack street. Coming out of the snack street, Lu Lingchuan was carrying an assortment of snacks.

The evening fireworks show started promptly at 8 PM. Although it was only around 7:30 PM, many visitors had already gone to claim spots.

Seeing the dense crowd heading in one direction, Shen Nian\'s hand tightened around her cotton candy: "With that many people, we won\'t be able to see anything."

She didn\'t like being in tight crowds.

Lu Lingchuan checked the time, seeing it was about time, "Let\'s go."

With that, he pulled Shen Nian in the opposite direction of the crowd.

"Ah?" Weren\'t they going left to see the fireworks? Why was Lu Lingchuan going right?

Before Shen Nian could ask, Lu Lingchuan had already pulled her away.

The whole way, Shen Nian was utterly baffled, until she saw the massive Ferris wheel in front of them.

The Ferris wheel was currently running, with around ten people lining up in front of it.

Didn\'t he say he was taking her to see the fireworks? Why were they going on the Ferris wheel again?

Lu Lingchuan tapped the shoulder of the person in front, then took out his phone: "Let\'s switch spots, I can reimburse your amusement park tickets for today."

At first, the person thought Lu Lingchuan was joking, until Lu Lingchuan actually transferred the money to him, leaving him dumbfounded before beaming with delight and moving to stand behind Lu Lingchuan.

Lu Lingchuan successfully moved Shen Nian to the front of the line, then tapped the next person\'s shoulder and said the same thing.

Like that, in less than three minutes, they went from last in line to first.

The staff working there were utterly dumbfounded.

This... you couldn\'t say they didn\'t cut the line, because they did; but you also couldn\'t say they cut the line, since the people in front willingly gave up their spots.

Let\'s just say, it\'s great to have money.

Successfully reaching the front of the line, Lu Lingchuan pocketed his phone with satisfaction.

Shen Nian silently glanced at the dozen or so people behind them—a few thousand yuan would cover it.

She couldn\'t help but remark, "Actually... even without cutting the line, we would have been able to get on."

There weren\'t that many people in front.

However, Lu Lingchuan calmly retorted, "If money can solve it, I don\'t like to waste time."

"......" Alright, privilege of having money.

Just then, the Ferris wheel completed a full rotation, and the passengers started disembarking one by one.

Once most people had disembarked, the staff opened the gate blocking Shen Nian and Lu Lingchuan, telling them, "You can board now."

The Ferris wheel car had lowered to the bottom, and the two took their seats, closing the door behind them.

The Ferris wheel looked different from the outside than from the inside—from the outside it was beautiful, while sitting inside was peaceful and quiet.

Shen Nian sat in her seat, silently watching as their car slowly rose higher, going from seeing nothing to viewing the entire amusement park\'s evening scenery, looking down upon the city\'s twinkling lights.

She stared off into space, only snapping out of it when she noticed Lu Lingchuan fiddling with his phone, fixated on something.

"What are you looking at?" Shen Nian couldn\'t help but ask.

From the moment she noticed, it seemed that Lu Lingchuan was very mindful of the time.

Upon hearing this, Lu Lingchuan\'s gaze shifted from his phone, and he stared at her, asking, "Do you still remember the dream you mentioned the last time we were on the Ferris wheel?"

"I remember," Shen Nian nodded.

She clearly recalled the scene from six years ago, the first time she and Lu Lingchuan rode the Ferris wheel.

At that time, she leaned against the observation cabin, gazing at the twinkling lights outside.

She said—

"I hope that one of those countless lights is shining for me."
