Chapter 224 Disney land
The drive going to their destination was lively. The three, Lei Zhao, Yan Mei, and Niu Niu, kept playing I Spy until Niu Niu suggested to play Word Games.
From afar, however, Yan Mei saw the large billboard of Disneyland, beckoning the passersby. Seeing the billboard of Disneyland, Yan Mei turned her body to look at Lei Zhao.
"Are we going to Disneyland?" she asked, Lei Zhao, nodding as Niu Niu excitedly giggled.
"She was not surprised now," he commented, Lei Zhao, chuckling as he continued driving.
"We could not hide the billboard. It was unavoidable," Lei Zhao said, Yan Mei, grinning ear to ear.
Even as a child, she did not go to Disneyland. She wanted to go when she was young, even when Yan Mei was younger, but she didn't always get the chance to.
Minutes turned into seconds for Yan Mei. She immediately went silent as she gaped at the beckoning welcome sigh of the themed park. Even Lei Zhao and Niu Niu happily grinned when they saw the eager look on Yan Mei's face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince it was the weekend, Lei Zhao knew beforehand that the themed park is going to be jam-packed. He then contacted one of the managers of Disneyland to reserve a parking space in advance.
Lei Zhao parked his car. The moment he did, even Yan Mei was the one excited to go out. She was the one who got off first. She then immediately opened the door to get Niu Niu out.
Seeing this excited reaction, Lei Zhao laughed as he shook his head, securing the car before the three of them would walk inside the themed park.
Yan Mei and Niu Niu were holding each other's hands as they walked ahead of Lei Zhao. Seeing this, he slightly pouted as he walked in widened strides to catch up to them.
"Guys, tie your jackets around your waist," Lei Zhao told them as if instructing them like they are his father. "You wear this later when it starts to get chilly."
With his instruction, Lei Zhao tied his jacket around his waist, then wrapped Yan Mei's jacket around hers. She then bent down as she tied Niu Niu's jacket around his waist as well.
The three of them looked like a family of three. Even the other people in the theme park gawked at them as they saw them like they're a family of models!
"Oh, what do we ride, what do we ride?"
Yan Mei was biting her lip after she spoke, trying her best to stifle her excitement. She saw the roller coasters, the Ferris wheel, the log ride, the bump car, and the other various rides found in the theme park!
One of the things she wanted to try, however, was the roller coaster of the theme park. From afar, she would see it as something fearful because she somewhat feared heights, but then, she would, at the same time, like to try how it felt like to try the ride.
"Boo-boo, can we try the one with the plane?"
Being snapped from her thoughts from hearing the little boy's voice, Yan Mei looked in the direction of Niu Niu's finger. He was pointing at a ride with eight planes, slowly circling as it moved up and down. It was suitable for children like him.
Not wanting to be selfish about wanting to try the rides that got her interest, Yan Mei smiled at Niu Niu as she nodded, looking at Lei Zhao at the same time.
"Niu Niu and I will ride that one. Is it okay for you to keep watch?"
Lei Zhao nodded as he crossed his arms in front of his chest. He slightly pouted as he felt that Niu Niu is already getting his wife from him.
"Yes, but after this, we ride something where I could, too."
With that, the three had already arrived in front of the plane ride. Yan Mei had talked to the ride watcher, and Niu Niu chose the red plane where he and Yan Mei could sit.
Yan Mei put on the safety belts on them. They waited for a few minutes for other riders to occupy the seats before the watcher could start the ride.
Yan Mei smiled at Lei Zhao and gave him a wave hello as he watched them together.
"Say hi to your uncle," Yan Mei said, making Niu Niu do so.

The other riders laughed when they heard what the child had said. Even Lei Zhao clicked his tongue as he felt a little annoyed with how Niu Niu was intentionally annoying him by hogging Yan Mei for himself!
Seeing the annoyed look on Lei Zhao's face, Yan Mei laughed, showing her beautiful perfect teeth.
'How can this man be annoyed at such a little boy such as him? He's cute, acting like a child!'
At the same moment, the ride watcher had announced that he would already be starting the ride. He reminded them to secure their belts for their safety.
When the rider hit the button on, the ride started revving to life. The cranes of the ride moved up and down, making the children riding with their guardians feel excited as it went around in circles.
Niu Niu started giggling. He couldn't contain his giddiness as the ride went up and down, the wind kissing their skin. Yan Mei smiled at him as she patted the top of his head, happy to see him enjoying.
"Are you having fun?"
"Yes, Boo-boo!" Niu Niu embraced Yan Mei with his soft, cute arms, "I want to ride more rides with you later, can I?"
Yan Mei giggled as she continued patting Niu Niu's head, "Of course!"
With them having fun like this, Lei Zhao's lips curled into a smile. He was happy that Yan Mei was starting to feel at ease despite what had happened in the therapist's room. He was glad that bringing Niu Niu along with them helped in taking the worry out of Yan Mei's mind.
It was then that Lei Zhao decided that he would do his best in these days off to make her happy while he was busy in the shadows looking for the psychotic man.
