Chapter 227 The Park

The next day was the weekend, and Lin Xi, unusually, did not study in her room.

"Grandma, I went out to play with my classmates today."

"Go out to play? Going out to play is great!"

The sun has risen in the west, and my granddaughter has actually started playing!

Lin Guiying excitedly pulled out two hundred yuan from her pocket. "Here, Grandma will give you the money. Come back when you've had your fun."

"No need, Grandma, I have money."

It was almost time to meet, so Lin Xi got on her scooter and sped out of the house, with Lin Guiying calling after her to be careful.

When they arrived at the amusement park, Li Xiaonuan, Jian hope, and Shu Zhi were eating at the entrance.

Li Xiaonuan handed one to Lin Xi, "Xiao Xi, whatever you want to play today, we'll play it with you."

"It's up to you guys, I'm fine with whatever you play."

"No, Xiaoxi, you choose. Don't worry, we're good at everything."

"Okay, let's go in."

After entering, Lin Xi first led the group to one of the roller coasters to get used to it, followed by the drop tower that can reach a height of 65 meters, the 40-meter free-spinning high-altitude flying ride, and then the giant pendulum swing that rotates 360 degrees.

Each one is more exciting than the last.

Lin Xi had a blast. In her previous life, she didn't have money to play when she was a child, and she couldn't play when she got sick as an adult. This was the first time she had ever played like this.

After riding the giant swing, Li Xiaonuan and Shu Zhi couldn't hold it in any longer and ran to the tree to vomit.

Jian hope was a little better, but not much better; she was squatting on the ground, her face pale.

Lin Xi was so engrossed in the game that she didn't notice that the others had been feeling unwell since the very first activity, and she felt a little embarrassed at that moment.

"Sorry, whatever you want to play, I'll do as you say in a bit."

The group waved their hands repeatedly, "No need, no need, Xiaoxi, we'll listen to you, we've already gotten used to it."

It was the first time they had seen Xiaoxi so happy, and they didn't want to spoil her mood.

"Yes, yes, it's...quite fun."

After saying that, he started vomiting again.

Jianxi drank a few sips of water and finally calmed down. "Xiaoxi, you're amazing! You weren't scared at all. Do you often do these kinds of rides?"

"No, this is my first time here."

The group exchanged glances, a hint of pity flashing in their eyes.

Li Xiaonuan suppressed the urge to vomit, straightened her back, and looked like she was willing to risk her life for him. "Xiaoxi, we're done. What else do you want to play?"

Seeing that they didn't look well, Lin Xi decided to skip the thrill rides and suggested, "Let's go check out the haunted house instead."

Li Xiaonuan's lips twitched slightly. "Okay, hehe, okay, I love going to haunted houses the most."

Shu Zhi and Jian hope forced a smile and nodded.

In the end, except for Lin Xi, the rest of them ran out shouting and yelling until their voices were hoarse.

Shouldn't kids be playing on things like carousels, Ferris wheels, and bumper cars? Why is it that the ones Xiaoxi is playing on are all so scary?

At this moment, Lin Xi also realized that everyone didn't actually enjoy playing these games; they were just doing it to keep her company.

Let's go out for a walk.

Li Xiaonuan hadn't recovered from the terrifying atmosphere just now and still looked shaken. Hearing Lin Xi's words, she immediately calmed down and said, "Xiaoxi, have you had enough fun? I just wasn't prepared. I'm not scared at all."

Jian hope also pretended to be still not satisfied and quickly said, "Xiao Xi, what else do you want to play? Let's continue playing."

Shu Zhi always acts faster than she talks, and she pulled Lin Xi to the next project.

Lin Xi found it amusing. She was actually much older than them, and it wasn't like she absolutely had to play these games. Why were they treating her like a child?

"Okay, okay, thank you for playing with me. I'm really happy. I was just about to buy some books, let's go to the bookstore."

This isn't really an excuse. Xiao Yi updated the system tasks, and for the international mathematics competition, he needed to read many mathematics books every day.

Upon arriving at the bookstore, the clerk greeted Lin Xi with great enthusiasm, "Little Xi brought her classmates!"

"What books do you need this time? I'll help you find them."

"Thank you, sister. Where are the university-level math books? I can go there myself."

Besides Shu Zhi who came along, Li Xiaonuan got a headache just looking at math books and ran to the art area, while Jian hope went to find sports books.

An hour later, Lin Xi pushed the cart to the cashier. The clerks were used to it, but Li Xiaonuan and the others were seeing this for the first time. This wasn't a supermarket shopping trip; who would come to a bookstore to buy a cart full of books?

Li Xiaonuan flipped through the books in the cart. "Xiaoxi, can you finish reading all of these? And they're all math books: calculus? complex function theory? visualization methods for complex analysis? What are all these?"

Shu Zhi replied, "They are all textbooks for university mathematics departments. I've been thinking of buying them, but I can't understand them."

Jian hope shook her head and said, "Okay, I can't even understand the title of the book."

Lin Xi took out the card Gu Zheng had given her from her backpack. "Sister, let's pay together."

Li Xiaonuan pulled out her wallet, "No need, no need, we'll settle our own."

Lin Xi stuffed her wallet back into her bag. "I have a membership card, might as well use it. Besides, the three of you combined don't even have as many books as I bought by myself, so don't be shy with me."

Shu Zhi had been staring at the card for a long time. "Xiao Xi, your card is different from mine."

She often comes to this bookstore to buy books and has been upgraded from a level one member to a senior member, but she has never seen this kind of card before.

"Oh, this was given to me by my second senior brother."

Sigh, I wonder how my cheap second senior brother is doing in H country.

I miss him a little since I haven't seen him in so long.

After all the books were scanned, Lin Xi snapped out of her reverie, told him to come back for the books after dinner, and then left. Shu Zhi asked in confusion, "You haven't paid yet?"

A staff member standing nearby smiled and said, "Xiao Xi's card was specially customized by our boss. There's only one of its kind, and she's the only one who doesn't have to pay for books."

"Wow, Xiaoxi, your second senior brother is the owner of Zhenghua Bookstore!" Li Xiaonuan exclaimed with starry eyes. Zhenghua Bookstore is a national chain, so Xiaoxi's second senior brother must be very rich.

Lin Xi was hearing for the first time that there was only one of these cards. She thought it was a gift from her second senior brother, but she didn't expect it to be specially prepared for her. It turns out that her doting on her second senior brother was not in vain.

Shu Zhi suddenly realized why she had never seen this kind of card before.

When we came out of the bookstore, it was past noon, and everyone started discussing what to eat.

Seeing that it wasn't far from her father's shop, Lin Xi suggested, "Let's go eat mala tang (spicy hot pot)."

Li Xiaonuan's eyes lit up. "Yes, yes, I'll eat mala tang. I've heard it's really delicious. I've never tried it before."

Jianxi and Shuzhi nodded in agreement. "We haven't eaten there either. It seems to be a newly opened restaurant that's very popular."

Lin Xi was secretly pleased; it seemed her father was doing a good job running the shop.

Even though it was past lunchtime, the restaurant was still packed with people.

The one who came to greet us was still the same one-eyed old man, Grandpa Chen.

This time, he recognized Lin Xi at a glance and said warmly, "Little Xi is here! Are you here to see your father?"
