Chapter 86 - A DATE WITH DAD (I)
"DAD, try not to make Yan run around too much. His legs are still not that strong. He might accidentally trip if he gets too excited," Luo Jin said, reminding his father. "Also, don't let him eat too much greasy foods, sweets as well."
Although his brother was indeed very powerful in the game, but that was VR, this was real life. A lot of accidents could happen. If Luo Yan hurt himself, he wouldn't be immediately healed by some potion.
Luo Wei Tian's mouth twitched in amusement. "Xiao Jin, I still remember that you're my son. Why are you suddenly acting like you're Xiao Yan's mother?" he teased.
Luo Jin's face immediately turned red. If possible, there would probably be smoke rising from his head too.
Luo Ren standing beside Luo Jin chuckled. "Dad, don't tease Xiao Jin, he's just worried. And, he has a point."
"You two, do you really think I will let anything happen to Xiao Yan?" Luo Wei Tian said helplessly.
"Ah Jin, although my legs are weak, I assure you, I will definitely not fall," Luo Yan said with conviction. Then he turned to his father. "And Dad, Brother is right. You shouldn't tease Ah Jin. And I think Ah Jin is very cute this way. Don't you think so too, Dad?"
"Of course, Xiao Jin is very cute," Luo Wei Tian didn't hesitate to agree.
Luo Jin's face became even redder hearing these unexpected compliments.
Luo Ren stared at his youngest brother's face and acted as if observing his features which only made Luo Jin blushed even more. "Hmm… I think Yan Yan is right. Xiao Jin, when did you get this cute?"
Luo Jin glared at his eldest brother and pushed him a bit. "Stop calling me cute!" He stomped away. But when he was near the stairs, he stopped and looked back. "Take care."
And then he continued climbing up the stairs.
The three who were left looked at each other and just laughed. How could Luo Jin even deny that he's not cute when his actions showed the complete opposite of that?
"Just as Xiao Jin said, do take care," Luo Ren said.
"Brother, don't worry too much because Dad will definitely protect me."
"Of course I will."
The father and son duo said goodbye to Luo Ren and both went out of the mansion.
Luo Wei Tian put his arm on his second son's thin shoulders. "So, Xiao Yan, where do you want to go?"
"I'm going to decide where we would go?"
"Yes. I want to go to the place that Xiao Yan wants to go to the most."
Luo Yan tilted his head, seriously thinking. Then a certain place popped out of his mind. "Then I want to go to an amusement park!"
----------
Luo Yan let out a thrilling scream. It was not the kind that was full of fear, it was the kind that was full of excitement and joy. The roller coaster moved backward and then moved forward at a high speed. Making Luo Yan squeal again. This was so much fun. He chose this roller coaster as their first ride when he saw how long the line on its ticketing booth was. Because it could only mean that many people enjoyed this ride. And he was truly glad for his choice.
Contrary to him, his father who was sitting beside him was as pale as white paper. He was clenching his fists tightly, gritting his teeth, trying his best not to make a sound. His stomach was already churning, he felt like even his intestines were coiling around each other. If his mental fortitude was not strong, he probably would have already puked his guts out.
After a while, the roller coaster's speed slowed down until it completely stopped. Luo Yan happily walked down. He wanted to ride again but when he turned around and saw the state of his father, he changed his mind. He had never seen his father looked so pale. He's probably not used to thrilling rides like this. So Luo Yan chose to be magnanimous and tried not to torture his father.
"Dad, shall we take a break?" he asked worriedly.
Luo Wei Tian looked at his son whose expression was full of worry. He felt like his majesty as a father was suddenly ruined. How could he let himself be beaten by a simple roller coaster ride? Truly shameful.
He straightened his spine and said, "No, we can go to the next ride that Xiao Yan likes."
Luo Yan stared at his father. Seeing that he seemed to be really fine, he smiled and said, "Okay!" He looked around and saw a sign of a certain ride at the distance. "Then let's go to the Canyon Raft Ride."
"Okay," his father agreed.
The two started walking towards the direction of the ride.
Luo Yan actually hadn't been to an amusement park before. This was his first time. Growing up in an orphanage, going to a place like this was simply a luxury. And then once he entered college, he never thought of going to one. He just didn't have the time nor the inclination to do so. So when his father asked where he wanted to go, this was the first place that came to his mind.
He just wanted to experience going to a place like this at least once in his life. With this new life of his, he's sure that he could go to an amusement park as many times as he wanted. But that didn't mean that he wouldn't try to have fun as much as he could now.
While walking, Luo Yan noticed a shop that was selling headbands with animal ears. He turned to his father. "Dad, let's go over there first!"
Luo Wei Tian looked at the direction his son pointed at. When he saw the headbands with animal ears, he suddenly felt a bad premonition. Before he could answer, Luo Yan already pulled him inside the shop.
Luo Yan looked around. His eyes brightened seeing the many varieties of headbands with animal ears. They even had those hats with ears that could move. He picked a black headband with cat ears on top. Then he turned to his father.
"Dad, bend down a little."
Luo Wei Tian already had a hunch on what his son was planning to do. But he still bent down. Because he couldn't bear to see him disappointed. Just as he thought, Luo Yan put the headband with cat ears on his head. His son smiled happily. Well, if he could see this kind of smile on Luo Yan's face, then he wouldn't mind even wearing a cat costume.
"Isn't it a bit unfair if I'm the only one wearing a headband?"
"Then Dad could choose one for me too."
Luo Wei Tian looked around and then picked a hat with rabbit ears, the one that could move. "How about this one?"
Looking at the hat, Luo Yan suddenly remembered Shen Ji Yun for some reason. Because when they first met, he called him 'silly rabbit'. He just remembered it now after seeing this rabbit hat. He wondered why he called him that.
"Okay," he just said.
His father put the hat on his head. He pressed one of the dangling paws and one of the rabbit ears moved.
Did he really resemble a rabbit that much?
