After sitting on the bench for a while, Shen Lan returned to his original state. At least, on the surface.

She stood up, her body no longer shaking in the slightest, and asked in a calm tone, "What are we going to play next?" ”

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

Shen Lan looked around.

The closest ones are the pirate ship and the jumping machine, but these two are also heartbeat projects, and Shen Lan, who just lost someone on the roller coaster, certainly doesn't consider this kind of thing. Further afield, there are merry-go-rounds and bumper cars, but those are a bit young, and the customers who play there are very small, and the elementary school students are considered to be 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 do you think I can do?" ”

Xu Zhe asked tentatively, "Are you afraid of heights?" ”

This question really stumped Shen Lan. She read books at home when she was a child, and when she grew up, she played billiards in her father's shop, and occasionally played video games or something. She hadn't ridden a roller coaster, and the Ferris wheel was the same.

Imagine rising high into the air in that tiny cockpit, and maybe a little wobbly...... Isn't it scary?

If it had been before today, Shen Lan would have scoffed at the difficulty of the Ferris wheel. But at this time, she became extremely cautious and thought seriously.

Xu Zhe said: "Fear of heights is instinctive, and most people will be more or less afraid of heights, to different degrees. ”

Shen Lan: "I don't have much impression of being afraid of heights, so there should be no problem." ”

Xu Zhe smiled and asked, "Should it be okay?" ”

"There's a good chance there's no problem, so let's go. By the way, have you ever ridden a Ferris wheel before? ”

Saying this, Shen Lan and him had already taken steps towards that side.

Xu Zhe shook his head: "I haven't sat down." ”

Shen Lan raised her eyebrows: "Are you like me, you have never been to the amusement park at all?" ”

Xu Zhe smiled: "Yes, I used to prefer 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 sports, but that's basketball and football. Slightly more troublesome activities, I used to refuse. ”

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

Xu Zhe said without thinking: "In order to accompany the little birthday star." ”

Shen Lan remembered what he said when he went to the amusement park not long ago, so he joked: "You want to be happy with me, aren't you?" ”

Xu Zhe: "Of course. ”

So now, what do you have to do to be the happiest?

Shen Lan looked down at his left hand.

At this time, she walked on Xu Zhe's right, shoulder to shoulder, about twenty or thirty centimeters apart. As long as she stretched out her hand slightly, she could hold Xu Zhe's hand - how happy would she be if she could hold hands?

The two walked another way in silence.

Seeing that the entrance of the Ferris wheel was not far away, Shen Lan gritted his silver teeth and finally made a move.

She waved her arm as she pretended to walk and touched his hand.

Xu Zhe subconsciously turned his head and glanced at it.

Shen Lan smiled at him: "Let's go, the first experience is really exciting." ”

With that, her left hand grabbed the boy's right hand, and then quickened her pace and walked forward, as if holding hands was just a natural move to urge him to hurry up.

Xu Zhe was only slightly stunned, and did not struggle to let go.

Boss Shen Ze of the billiard hall paced to the side of a certain table and beckoned, "Practice alone?" ”

Tang Wanghai turned his head and glanced at it, and replied, "Yes, I'll practice here." ”

For this guest surnamed Tang, Shen Ze had an impression. He remembered that this person's daughter paid money to enter the experimental middle school in the provincial capital, and this way was to help find a relationship. And his daughter is very dissatisfied with this.

This is enough to make Boss Shen realize one thing, that is, this Mr. Tang's daughter, probably, maybe, may be...... Daughter's rival in love?

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

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

Tang Wanghai: "How do you know?" ”

"It's rare to have a smile on your face when you play."

Shen Ze still swallowed the latter sentence. If you really want to say the whole thing, there should still be 'how can a normal person laugh when he hits so stinky'.

"Of course I'm in a good mood, other people go to work, I can find time to play, how cool."

Tang Wanghai also didn't say a word, otherwise there should still be 'The stock I bought has been rising for several days, can you not be happy'.

Shen Ze took out his mobile phone and glanced at the date, Tuesday, at this time, he had time to play by himself, which was enough to show that this guest had a lot of freedom in his work. However, he also noticed that today is November 1.

How do you feel that this date is a little familiar...... That's right, birthdays!

Shen Ze's cold sweat suddenly broke out. He realized that today was not only his daughter's birthday, but also his eighteenth birthday, a rite of passage! And he, as a father, actually forgot about it.

He quickly turned around and walked away, taking his mobile phone and calling his daughter.

However, no one answered, I don't know if her mobile phone is not around, or she can't hear it when she turns on mute, or her daughter is already having trouble with herself?

Such an important day was actually remembered until now, Shen Ze felt that normal girls would probably be angry.

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

[Xiaolan, happy birthday. I've been thinking about what to send you lately, but I'm worried about how it will affect your studies......]

As soon as he sat in the cockpit of the Ferris wheel and closed the door, Shen Lan took out his mobile phone and took a look.

She felt the vibration of her phone just now, and when she looked at it, she found that there was an extra missed call record and a text message.

Then the girl laughed.

Xu Zhe, who was sitting across from her, asked, "Is there anything happy about it?" ”

Shen Lan directly handed him the phone.

After he finished reading, the girl put one hand on her cheek and asked leisurely: "Do you think that my dad weighed the pros and cons for a long time and didn't give me a gift for a long time, as he said?" Or is it simply forgetting about my birthday? ”

Xu Zhe thought for a while and speculated: "What he said may be the truth, but it is more likely that I forgot." ”

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

Xu Zhe smiled: "That's too normal, be a father." You're fine, and your dad will remember your birthday. I once had a birthday, and my dad came home and saw the cake my mom bought and asked what was going on. ”

Shen Lan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Xu Zhe said: "And my dad will remember my age incorrectly." On my thirteenth birthday, he asked me how I felt at twelve. On my fourteenth birthday, he asked me again if I felt mature at fifteen......"

Shen Lan smiled: "But you and your father seem to have a very good relationship." ”

Xu Zhe: "It's okay, maybe the father and son don't pay attention to those details." He likes to be a little more spontaneous, and so do I. Give, your phone. ”

However, Shen Lan didn't take her phone back immediately, but said, "Since you are better at getting along with your father, otherwise, you can help me reply to this text message?" ”

Xu Zhe was stunned for a moment: "Isn't this okay?" He's your dad......"

Shen Lan blinked, a pair of beautiful eyes revealing cunning.

For a moment, Xu Zhezhen was worried that she would say, 'It can be your father'. Fortunately, the words that came out of the girl's mouth at the next moment were relatively normal:

"Can you help me think about the wording. I think my relationship with my dad may be cold, and it would be nice to learn a little bit from you. ”
