45: Go shopping with Wang Xinyi
Wang Xinyi was still very sensible; she knew her Brother had important things to do.
So, she sensibly listened to her Brother's arrangements and stayed at Chen Xiangbei's house for two days.
She seriously took her Brother's requests to heart; after all, besides being a bit unreliable, this Brother had no other flaws.
"Brother, don't worry, I will definitely listen to Xiangbei Gege and not cause him any trouble," Wang Xinyi said with determined eyes.
Seeing that she had taken it to heart, Wang Ziyi also said with relief, "Xin Yi is the most obedient. When Brother comes back, I'll take you to the amusement park to play, okay?"
"Okay, pinky promise!" Wang Xinyi extended her tiny hand, wanting to make a pinky promise with him.
Wang Ziyi extended his hand to make a pinky promise and seal it with her, then got out of the car to buy wontons.
At 8:40 AM, Wang Ziyi and Wang Xinyi knocked on Chen Xiangbei's door.
Chen Xiangbei held a LinaBell doll behind his back and went to open the door to welcome them.
As soon as he opened the door and saw them standing there, Chen Xiangbei handed the doll in his hand to Wang Xinyi and said,
"Welcome, little Wang Xinyi, to my house as a guest. Here, this is a doll Brother is giving you. Please take it."
Wang Xinyi's eyes lit up when she saw the doll. She was about to reach out to take it but stopped, thinking for a moment, and looked at her Brother.
Seeing this, Wang Ziyi said, "This is from Xiangbei Gege. Hurry up and take it. Xiangbei Gege is not an outsider; you can accept gifts from him, understand?"
Wang Xinyi happily accepted the LinaBell doll.
Chen Xiangbei invited them in, telling them not to stand outside the door.
As soon as they walked in, Wang Ziyi noticed the huge ecological fish tank with some extremely beautiful fish inside.
Wang Ziyi ran over, looking at the fish tank as he spoke.
"It seems you really make a lot from Ornamental Fish. Just renting this house must cost a lot. This fish tank and last night's meal must be at least seventy or eighty thousand yuan, right?"
"Hehe, I said it was just a little bit of an '100 million' (hundred million), can't compare with you. Some people are born in Rome, others are born as oxen and horses," Chen Xiangbei teased.
Wang Xinyi also seemed captivated by the fish, staring at the Ornamental Fish without blinking.
Wang Ziyi seized the opportunity to say, "Xin Yi, you must be obedient at Xiangbei Gege's house, okay? Brother is going to be busy with something first. I'll come back to pick you up as soon as I'm done."
"Okay, okay, hurry up and go. I'll listen to Xiangbei Gege," Wang Xinyi replied, not looking up, her eyes fixed on the fish tank.
Seeing this, Wang Ziyi didn't linger. He said goodbye to Chen Xiangbei and left.
After seeing them off at the door, Chen Xiangbei returned and saw Wang Xinyi still leaning over the fish tank watching, so he said,
"Xin Yi, do you really like these fish?"
Wang Xinyi looked up, blinked her big eyes, and said excitedly, "Yes, yes, they are so beautiful! There are red ones, white ones, and many colors together."
"Then, Xin Yi, do you want to raise fish?"
"Yes! But I'm afraid Brother won't let me. It's already hard work for my Brother to raise me. Raising so many fish would be even harder!" Wang Xinyi said worriedly.
"Don't worry about that, I'll help you convince your Brother. When he comes back, you can raise beautiful fish!"
"Really? Then where does Xiangbei Gege sell his beautiful fish? I want to go buy some too. My Brother gave me money, you know," Wang Xinyi said, pulling out a few crumpled bills from her pocket.
"My fish are all caught by myself; money can't buy them."
"Then, Xiangbei Gege, can you take me fishing? Xin Yi wants to catch such beautiful fish too," Wang Xinyi looked at Chen Xiangbei with anticipation.
"Of course you can. How about Brother takes you fishing this afternoon?" Chen Xiangbei said, patting her head.
"Yay! Xiangbei Gege is the best!" Wang Xinyi exclaimed joyfully.
After agreeing to take Wang Xinyi fishing, Chen Xiangbei took her to the dining table for breakfast.
After breakfast, he took Wang Xinyi to a nearby shopping mall and bought her children's sunscreen, sun-protective clothing, and a sun hat.
The sun outside was very harsh, and without protection, it was easy to get sunburned.
They shopped for the whole morning, buying food and necessities.
Wang Xinyi was initially a bit embarrassed to buy so many things.
Under Chen Xiangbei's continuous 'mental attack', she transformed into a shopping woman, buying whatever she liked when she saw it.
On the first floor of the mall, it happened to be the weekend, and the children's playground was open.
Wang Xinyi saw many children playing there and wanted to go in and play too.
But she was a bit too shy to ask, so she kept staring at the playground.
Chen Xiangbei saw that she wanted to play, so he pointed over there and said, "Look! There's a children's playground over there! I really want to go play! Xin Yi, how about we go play at the children's playground together?"
When Wang Xinyi heard they were going to the children's playground, two beams of laser shot out of her eyes, and she replied excitedly,
"Okay, okay! Let's go play together. I see a lot of children there, and I want to go play with them."
Chen Xiangbei took the excited Wang Xinyi to the children's playground on the first floor.
While buying tickets, he told the ticket seller he wanted to buy two tickets and simultaneously winked at the seller as a hint.
The ticket seller understood and said to them, "I'm sorry, only children can enter the playground; adults cannot."
Chen Xiangbei immediately replied, "That's okay, then just buy one ticket and let the child go in and play."
After saying that, he let Wang Xinyi go in by herself. He watched her from the entrance and said,
"Xin Yi, go find some friends to play with. Brother is a little tired and will rest here for a while."
Wang Xinyi still felt a bit bad and wanted Chen Xiangbei to play with her.
But seeing that it was all children inside and no adults, she gave up.
She started climbing up high. At first, she was a bit reserved, turning her head to look at him after playing for a while.
But a child's attention span is short, and soon she was seen playing wildly with other children.
She didn't even hear Chen Xiangbei shouting instructions from outside, telling her to be careful.
The staff on site saw his anxious look and comforted him, "Being playful is a child's nature. The children's playground is very safe, so you don't need to worry too much. There are staff watching all around."
Chen Xiangbei also knew that this activity wasn't dangerous.
But after all, she wasn't his child, and it would be hard to explain if anything happened.
So, he kept an eye on Wang Xinyi's movements the entire time, more focused than even when he was fishing.
Now he finally understood Wang Ziyi's pain.
He also admired his parents for daring to leave their child with him and go enjoy their time as a couple.
Therefore, true love is ultimately between two people; children are just an accident!
Isn't raising the main account just to bring up the sub-account?
At 12 PM, parents began taking their children home for lunch.
Chen Xiangbei also went in and pulled up Wang Xinyi, who was having a blast, indicating that it was time for lunch.
Wang Xinyi reluctantly followed him out.
