Cultivation Department Shura Field

Chapter 255 Chapter 254 Isn’t this a bit over the line?

After sitting on the bench for a while, Shen Lan returned to her original state.At least, that's what it seems like.

She stood up, her figure no longer swaying at all, and asked in a calm tone: "What should we play next?"

Xu Zhe kicked the ball back: "Today is your birthday, of course it's up to you to decide, birthday boy."

Shen Lan looked around.

The closest ones are the pirate ship and the jumping machine, but these are also heart-pounding projects. Shen Lan, who just lost someone on the roller coaster, certainly doesn't consider them.Looking further away, there are carousels and bumper cars, but those projects are a bit young, and the customers playing there are also very young, and elementary school students are considered older among them.

Suddenly, she noticed the tallest facility in the amusement park, and her eyes lit up.

"Let's go ride the Ferris wheel."

Xu Zhe: "I should be fine, but you..."

Shen Lan: "What problems do you think I can have?"

Xu Zhe asked tentatively: "Are you afraid of heights?"

This question really stumped Shen Lan.When she was a child, she read at home. When she grew up, she played billiards in her father's shop and occasionally played video games.She has never ridden a roller coaster, and the same goes for a Ferris wheel.

Imagine rising to a high altitude in that small cockpit. It might be a little shaky... wouldn't it be scary?
Before today, Shen Lan would have scorned the difficulty of the Ferris wheel.But at this time, she became extra cautious and thought seriously.

Xu Zhe added: "Fear of heights is instinctive. Most people are more or less afraid of heights, to varying degrees."

Shen Lan: "I have no impression of being afraid of heights, so there should be no problem."

Xu Zhe asked with a smile: "It should be okay?"

"There is a high probability that there will be no problem, so let's go. By the way, have you ever ridden a Ferris wheel before?"

With that said, Shen Lan and he had already taken steps towards that direction.

Xu Zhe shook his head: "I've never sat down."

Shen Lan raised her eyebrows: "Are you like me and have never been to an amusement park?"

Xu Zhe smiled and said: "Yes, I have always preferred to play by myself at home, whether it is reading books or playing games... In this way, our interests and hobbies are quite similar. But I still have some outdoor activities. Sports, but only basketball and football. I used to refuse activities that were a little more troublesome."

Shen Lan: "But why are you here today?"

Xu Zhe said without hesitation: "To accompany the birthday girl."

Shen Lan remembered what he said when she entered the amusement park not long ago, and joked: "You want to make me happy, right?"

Xu Zhe: "Of course."

So now, what should you do to be happiest?

Shen Lan looked down at her left hand.

At this time, she was walking on Xu Zhe's right, side by side, about twenty or thirty centimeters apart.As long as she stretches out her hand a little, she can hold Xu Zhe's hand - how happy would it be if she could hold hands and walk?
The two walked for a while in silence.

Seeing that the entrance of the Ferris wheel was not far away, Shen Lan gritted her teeth secretly and finally made some move.

She pretended to wave her arms normally as she walked and touched his hand.

Xu Zhe turned his head and glanced subconsciously.

Shen Lan smiled at him and said, "Let's go. This is my first experience. I'm really looking forward to it."

After saying that, she grabbed the boy's right hand with her left hand, and then walked forward faster, as if holding hands was just a natural move to urge him to go faster.

Xu Zhe was just slightly stunned, but did not struggle to let go.

The owner of the billiards hall, Shen Ze, walked to a certain table and said, "Are you practicing alone?"

Tang Wanghai turned his head and took a look and replied, "Yes, I'm just practicing here."

Shen Ze had an impression of this guest named Tang.He remembered that this man's daughter paid to go to the Experimental Middle School in the provincial capital, and he helped find this path.And my daughter was very dissatisfied with this.This is enough to make Boss Shen realize one thing, that is, Mr. Tang's daughter is probably, maybe,... his daughter's love rival?

Of course he has no interest in helping his daughter chase men, that kind of thing is too awkward.But he was quite interested in getting to know the boy named Xu Zhe through side channels.

Shen Ze observed for a moment, and after the guest made another shot, he suddenly asked: "It seems that you are in a good mood."

Tang Wanghai: "How did you know?"

“It’s rare to see someone with a smile on his face while playing ball.”

Shen Ze still swallowed the last sentence.To tell the whole story, there should be another sentence: "How can a normal person laugh after being beaten so badly?"

"Of course I'm in a good mood. Others are at work, so I can take the time to play ball. How cool it is."

Tang Wanghai also left nothing to say, otherwise it would have been, 'The stocks I bought have been rising for several days, how can I be unhappy?'

Shen Ze took out his mobile phone and glanced at the date. It was Tuesday. Having free time to play by himself at this time is enough to show that this guest has a lot of freedom in his work.But he also noticed that today was still November [-]st.

Why does this date seem a bit familiar...by the way, birthday!

Shen Ze suddenly broke out in cold sweat.He realized that today was not only his daughter’s birthday, but also his birthday and coming-of-age ceremony!And as a father, he actually forgot all this.

He quickly turned away and called his daughter on his cell phone.

However, no one answered. I wonder if her phone is not around, or it is muted and cannot be heard, or maybe her daughter is already having trouble with herself?

Shen Ze felt that a normal girl would be angry that such an important day had not been remembered until now.

And since today is Tuesday, she might be in class, so it's normal that she can't answer the phone.Thinking of this, Shen Ze decisively switched to text message mode.

[Xiaolan, happy birthday.I have been thinking about what to give you recently, but I am worried that it will affect your study...]

----

As soon as she got into the cockpit of the Ferris wheel and closed the door, Shen Lan took out her phone and took a look.

She felt her phone vibrate just now. When she looked at it, she found an additional missed call record and a text message.

Then the girl laughed.

Xu Zhe, who was sitting opposite her, asked: "Is there anything happy?"

Shen Lan handed him the phone directly.

After he finished reading, the girl held her chin in one hand and asked leisurely: "Do you think, as he said, my dad weighed the pros and cons for a long time without giving me the gift? Or did he simply forget my birthday? What's going on?"

Xu Zhe thought for a while and speculated: "He may be telling the truth, but it is more likely that he has forgotten it."

Shen Lan: "Will your father be like this too?"

Xu Zhe chuckled: "That's normal, you're a father. It's okay for you, your dad will still remember your birthday after all. I had a birthday before, and my dad came home and saw that my mom bought it Cake, you still ask what’s going on.”

Shen Lan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Xu Zhe added: "And my dad still remembers my age wrongly. On my 13th birthday, he asked me how I felt when I was 12. On my 14th birthday, he asked me if I felt mature now that I was 15... "

Shen Lan smiled and said, "But you and your dad seem to have a very good relationship."

Xu Zhe: "It's okay, maybe father and son don't care about the details. He likes to be more casual, and so do I. Here, your cell phone."

However, Shen Lan did not take her phone back immediately. Instead, she said, "Since you are better at getting along with dad, how about you reply to this text message for me?"

Xu Zhe was stunned: "Isn't this bad? He is your father..."

Shen Lan blinked, a cunning look in her beautiful eyes.

For a moment, Xu Zhe was really worried that she would say, 'It could also be your father'.Fortunately, the words that came out of the girl's mouth the next moment were relatively normal:
"You can help me think about my wording. I think my relationship with my dad may be relatively cold, so I might as well learn some experience from you."
