Forbidden Game: Ruthless CEO, Please Set Me Free-Chapter 829 - 837: Child (9)
Shortly after Qiao Mo returned with the items, the three of them entered the venue.
After taking their seats, Qiao Zichen sat between the two of them. Qiao Mo handed him a snack and a bottle of water, then looked at Fu Nancheng next to him.
She handed another portion to him without making a sound.
Fu Nancheng stared absentmindedly at the things in his hand, then looked up at her for a moment before slowly taking them.
Qiao Mo remained silent and, after retracting her hand, turned her gaze to the pool.
Since the performance hadn’t started yet, there wasn’t much to see in the pool, and the dolphins were nowhere to be seen.
But knowing he was watching her, Qiao Mo kept her eyes focused on the pool to avoid his gaze.
Fu Nancheng looked at Qiao Zichen beside him, carefully and seriously eating his snack bite by bite, his focused silence inexplicably evoking a sense of sadness.
After watching the performance, the three of them played several more games together.
However, Qiao Mo, being timid, didn’t dare try some of the games and ended up holding their belongings.
By nine o’clock, they were exhausted from playing.
Each of them wore a glowing pair of Mickey Mouse ears on their heads.
Qiao Zichen was especially happy, holding two sparklers in his hands.
"It’s getting late. We should head back." Qiao Mo crouched down and adjusted his clothes, concerned that it was a bit chilly at night and worried he might catch a cold.
Qiao Zichen nodded, looked up at Fu Nancheng, and asked, "Uncle, are you coming home with us?" 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
Going home with them?
Fu Nancheng looked at the other person. Qiao Mo was slightly taken aback, her face tinged with embarrassment, avoiding his gaze as she told Chenchen, "Uncle has his own home, he can’t come home with us."
Upon hearing this, little Qiao Zichen was a bit disappointed. He really liked Fu Nancheng after spending the day together and wanted to play with him a little longer.
Fu Nancheng kept his gaze fixed on Qiao Mo, his lips barely moving.
Can’t he?
"Thank you for playing with Chenchen today." Qiao Mo thanked him softly.
As soon as she finished speaking, a burst of fireworks suddenly exploded above, brilliantly illuminated against the backdrop of the castle, lighting up the entire night sky, breathtakingly beautiful.
Everyone involuntarily looked up at the sky, lost in thought.
Qiao Mo couldn’t help but exclaim, "So beautiful..."
His gaze still lingered on her face as he softly said, "Not as beautiful as you."
Qiao Mo was slightly stunned, feeling a bit dazed, and as soon as their eyes met, she quickly looked away.
"Alright, we should head back now. Say goodbye to Uncle."
"I’ll take you home."
"Yes!" Before Qiao Mo could refuse, Chenchen excitedly agreed and ran to Fu Nancheng, hugging his leg.
Seeing this, Qiao Mo had no choice but to remain silent and get into the car with them.
The night had deepened, and the car was enveloped in darkness.
Qiao Mo held Chenchen in her arms, sitting in the front passenger seat, while Fu Nancheng and Chenchen chatted intermittently.
"Uncle...what’s your name?" Chenchen asked sleepily, nestled in Qiao Mo’s arms, his voice soft.
"Fu Nancheng."
"Are you the Fu Nancheng who eats bad kids?"
Fu Nancheng was taken aback for a moment, "Eats bad kids?"
"Mm...that’s what Mama said..."
Qiao Mo felt a bit awkward, but she met his gaze, unnaturally looking away, hiding her face in the darkness.
But unfortunately, the car had just arrived at their destination and stopped.
Unbuckling her seatbelt, Qiao Mo turned to get out of the car. Fu Nancheng swiftly grabbed her wrist, calling her name softly.
