Chapter 980: Spoiled Into a Little Cutie

Holding her ice cream, Cai Xiaotang was completely flustered by Li Xiao's remark, not knowing what to do.

Responding didn't feel right, and not responding didn't feel right either.

After a long moment—"Your ice cream is going to melt."

A voice from the side, seemingly suppressing a laugh, reminded her.

Cai Xiaotang snapped back to reality and hurriedly lowered her head to take a bite, but because she moved too abruptly, she accidentally smeared it right onto her nose!

The cold sensation on the tip of her nose made her freeze for a moment, and then she immediately lowered her head to look for a tissue, her face full of embarrassment.

Damn it!

Did she have to be this embarrassing!

It was just a sentence...

Thinking that the previous sentence didn't even count as a romantic remark, Cai Xiaotang desperately tried to soothe herself in her heart, but just thinking about Li Xiao's doting tone from a moment ago, her heartbeat showed no signs of slowing down at all.

The next second—"Don't move."

A slender finger gently lifted Cai Xiaotang's chin.

Cai Xiaotang indeed didn't react in time and could only subconsciously follow Li Xiao's movements.

Then, she felt the tip of her nose being gently brushed by a fingertip.

"All done."

Li Xiao wiped away that bit of ice cream, turned around, and threw the tissue into the trash can.

He then turned back and saw that Cai Xiaotang was still in that dazed state, seemingly not having fully recovered yet.

He couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing and cute.

It seems the impact of the word "little one" on her is even greater than "baby"?

Li Xiao thought to himself and couldn't help but tease her again on purpose: "Getting ice cream on your nose, you really are a little one..."

"I am not!!!"

Cai Xiaotang finally reacted, blushing as she retorted, her heart wailing.

Help me...

Can this guy stop calling her little one in that tone!

!!

Who could handle this?

Cai Xiaotang took a deep breath, noticed that her face was starting to heat up, and hurriedly stood up to walk away.

She didn't forget to deliberately complain loudly: "Calling me that, are you trying to admit that you're an old man?"

"Haven't you always called me that? Little one?"

Li Xiao immediately followed, fearlessly continuing to call her that.

"You!"

Cai Xiaotang's ears were already burning, and hearing this, she glared at him indignantly.

Out of the corner of her eye, however, she saw a clown dressed in full costume not far away, waving continuously in their direction.

Cai Xiaotang looked over subconsciously, her expression somewhat puzzled.

"Is he calling us?"

She asked Li Xiao, then looked toward the clown and pointed at herself.

She then saw the other person nodding frantically, waving even more excitedly for them to come over.

"It seems he is calling us, shall we go take a look?"

Li Xiao also saw the other person's intention.

"Then let's go."

Cai Xiaotang was a bit curious about what the other person wanted to do and walked over with great anticipation.

Then, just as she got close, she saw the clown happily spin around.

Immediately after, as if performing magic, he produced a Polaroid photo from his palm and handed it to her like a treasure.

"This is..."

Cai Xiaotang froze for a moment and took a subconscious glance.

Then she was slightly stunned.

She saw that the photo captured exactly the moment when she and Li Xiao were resting on the seats over there just now.

The angle of the shot was also extremely good.

In the photo, Li Xiao was gently lifting her chin, wiping the ice cream off the tip of her nose with a doting look on his face.

The two of them were also wearing the couple's outfits that Li Xiao had strongly insisted they wear when they went out this morning.

The sweet atmosphere seemed to be overflowing from the photo.

Li Xiao naturally also saw the content of the photo, and his mind stirred instantly as he realized something.

Following that—"Hoo hoo! Ha!"

The clown seemed unable to communicate directly with tourists and began to dance around again.

Cai Xiaotang snapped back to reality from the photo.

She then looked up and saw the clown pointing not far behind him.

Only then did she see that there was a small stall there that looked like an ice cream cart.

On it was written the price for casual street photography.

One photo cost twenty yuan.

It wasn't expensive.

But...

Keeping this photo in front of Li Xiao, wasn't that just telling him that she still cared about him very much?

The next second— "This photo..."

Li Xiao's voice suddenly rang out.

Cai Xiaotang guessed what he wanted to say and interrupted him directly: "It was taken very well, thank you."

She smiled politely at the clown and returned the photo.

Li Xiao's voice came to an abrupt halt.

Cai Xiaotang hardly dared to look at his expression at this moment; as she spoke, she immediately turned around and said at a rapid pace: "Let's go, let's go play something else. This place is so big, at this speed we won't be able to play all the attractions..."

As she spoke, she actually grabbed his arm directly and walked forward with her head down.

Behind her.

Li Xiao did not speak.

Cai Xiaotang was also feeling anxious inside.

That photo just now really was taken very well...

If only she alone had seen it, then she definitely would have bought it without the slightest hesitation!

Never mind twenty!

Two hundred would be fine too!

She sighed in her heart with some regret, turned a corner, and seeing that the water attractions were already right before her eyes, she hurriedly adjusted the atmosphere: "Let's go play that!"

"Okay."

Li Xiao, who had not spoken the whole way, finally made a sound.

Cai Xiaotang stopped in her tracks, realized she was still grabbing his hand, and hurriedly let go.

Then, she cautiously stole a glance at his expression.

Li Xiao...

Must have wanted that photo too.

And yet he had been forcibly dragged away by her just like that.

Would he be angry?

After all, today was for having fun, and she didn't want to make him unhappy...

Just as Cai Xiaotang was thinking this, she immediately heard— "Why are you peeking at me? Feeling guilty?"

That person's unique teasing tone fell into her ears, making Cai Xiaotang feel much more at ease instantly.

Yet she still subconsciously retorted: "What do I have to feel guilty about..."

"..."

"What do you think?"

Li Xiao asked back, curling his lips.

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment.

Both of them knew perfectly well that he was referring to the matter of that photo just now.

"Ahem..."

Cai Xiaotang coughed lightly, knowing that if she kept talking, she would definitely be the one to "lose out," so she hurriedly changed the subject: "Um... let's go over first! Otherwise, we'll have to wait for the next wave!"

As she spoke, she hurriedly walked quickly toward the direction of the queue.

Fortunately, Li Xiao didn't say anything more.

The two of them lined up with the crowd, waited for a while longer, and finally sat on the water wheel.

Cai Xiaotang, however, remained somewhat absent-minded, still thinking about that photo in her heart.

The water wheel slowly started moving.

Cai Xiaotang felt a familiar gentleness cover her palm again.

Since the roller coaster, Li Xiao had held her hand for almost every attraction.

Cai Xiaotang did not refuse either.

She simply carefully enjoyed this final sweetness.

If only...

It would be even better if she could get that photo.

It looks like she'll have to find an excuse to avoid Li Xiao in a while!

And then secretly buy the photo!
