Chapter 338: Children's City

Su Yi: Got it!

Su Yi watches Su Yu, who is holding hands with Liang Yan and going upstairs, with nostalgic eyes; back then, he also had brothers he played with together.

……

Weekend, Ertongcheng: "So many people!"

The newly opened Ertongcheng in Qingshanqu began limiting crowd flow, contrary to Su Yi and the others' expectations.

"Discounts and giveaways, who doesn't love them!"

Zhu Xueheng looks at the promotional slogan above. The weather is still a bit hot, Ertongcheng has free air‑conditioning, items are discounted, and it's the weekend, so bringing children here for leisure is a sure profit.

Liang Yan looks at the long line, "So many big brothers and big sisters aren't bringing kids!"

They have VIP cards, yet still have to queue.

"They might be children of a few hundred months old."

Some keen‑eared youths cast admiring glances!

Su Yu watches the long line; even though they're queuing indoors with air‑conditioning, she still feels restless.

"How about we take the staff passage?"

Su Yu pulls her staff card from her huge backpack.

Su Yi widens his eyes, "Where did you get yours? Why don't I have one?"

"My new company rented a booth here!"

Her mail‑order company sent back some foreign toys and foreign grains as samples. If the big kids and little kids here like them, she can expand more business.

The booth here can also serve as a transfer station, charging a brokerage fee, allowing some insiders to send and receive items.

"It's about taking a longer route and buying an extra ticket."

The staff passage goes straight to the backstage area; to switch to the front, you must go to her company's booth. At that time she wanted the ninth floor.

The things they of that age like are basically on the second and third floors.

Employees can enter for free, but the people they bring still have to buy tickets again, and it's not the same type of ticket they bought before.

"Better wait, they've opened an extra passage up front, and the crowd has dispersed."

A group of young men in brand‑new security uniforms, muscles bulging, stand there, holding ticket‑checking machines, making tourists queue for inspection in the cross‑line area.

Most of those left by the automatic ticket‑checking machine are single young people who came alone.

In less than five minutes, Su Yi's party's turn arrived.

After passing ticket inspection, Su Yu and the others rushed straight to the second‑floor toy store.

"So many dolls!"

Liang Yan, holding Su Yu's hand, ran toward the shop filled with hanging toys.

Cute cloth dolls and cotton dolls are displayed on uniquely decorated booths, blending with the booth's atmosphere, looking exquisite and unintentionally boosting the dolls' looks! Su Yu suggests, "If you arrange your dolls like this, they wouldn't fit in ten rooms."

Each doll wearing different clothes requires its own set piece; how much space would that need? Liang Yan excitedly asks the attendant following them, "Sister, are these items sold together as well?"

The attendant looks a bit embarrassed, "No, we only sell this doll!"

The set pieces aren't for sale!

"Then do you know where these things are sold?"

Liang Yan doesn't lack dolls; her company's dolls are even prettier than those here! But she doesn't have this kind of thing to display the dolls' beauty.

Su Yi cheerfully watches from the side, "Why don't you go and stop them?"

Su Yu's comment is spot on; if Liang Yan were allowed to arrange, Zhu Xueheng's house would be filled with dolls.

"She's happy, that's all; didn't you see my wife and your wife discussing which ones to buy?" Liang Lijiang and Ji Yan are looking at regular doll models, selecting the few that are beautiful in themselves.

"Su Yu doesn't like this, why are you still buying?"

Liang Lijiang buys dolls mainly because her beloved daughter likes them. Su Yu seems to like the plush toys even more.

"All three of those sisters must have them; she's already started a company."

The fruits have to be made into dried fruit and sent a portion, let alone these dolls.

"Unfortunately, she doesn't really accept investment."

Su Yu likes investing, but her company basically doesn't accept investment from anyone except her family.

"Full ownership is easier to control."

Ji Yan has her own studio and also co‑manages her father's company; the experience is that in her own company she's the emperor, her word is law. In her father's company she's a stepmother; every time she proposes a new plan she's scrutinized under a magnifying glass, and a small mistake seems as if she had toppled the heavens, unforgivable!

Liang Yan and Su Yu don't know what the adults are murmuring about; the two of them pick what they like and head to the next venue, which is Su Yu's favorite plush toy.

Seeing Su Yu bring out a huge plush bear, Su Yi firmly refuses.

"Can this be delivered to home? If not, bring a bodyguard next time before buying!"

He doesn't want to carry such a big bear around the street; that would be a social death! Su Yu doesn't know, she only handles the card payment.

The attendant, worried the order might slip away, quickly nods, "Sure, buy two, we can ship them to different addresses!"

Su Yu's eyes light up at this, she runs back in and drags a super cute super large cat plush, "Send this to the ninth floor, just say ship to this address!"

Su Yu pulls out a special card and hands it to the attendant.

The attendant quickly takes it, and after Su Yu pays, delivers the plush in front of them.

Su Yi goes over and writes the villa's address, so that the items Liang Yan and Su Yu bought can be sent there.

Su Yu and Liang Yan go on a buying spree in Ertongcheng, while Ji Yan and Liang Lijiang occasionally add more.

Su Yu's ninth‑floor booth is already piled with their loot, and an employee comes down to report; she has brought up so many items, "Should we close the shop and focus on packing?" "No, I'm done buying!"

Su Yu and Liang Yan have bought enough, and the two head to a themed restaurant for a meal.

Su Yu chooses the flower theme, Liang Yan chooses the dog theme, and the two families eat separately.

"Wow!"

Su Yu looked at pastries that each resembled a flower more and more, and she really wanted them.

"Mom, this looks so nice; let's buy some to bring home for great-grandmother and elder uncle!"

Su Yi agreed, "Buying is fine; if they can't finish them, the leftovers, you eat them yourself!"

You can't use the pretext of not wasting to rope him into eating together!

"Alright, then we'll buy a little less!"

Ji Yan heated the bowls and chopsticks for Su Yu, "Let's eat first, and buy them later when we get home."

"Alright!"

Su Yu looked at these beautifully presented pastries, but when she tasted them she felt disappointed.

"Not very tasty!"

【Buying them home is no better than bringing real flowers to display. No, the manor already has many flowers!】

From the house next door, Liang Yan also hung his head dejectedly, "Not tasty!"

Liang Lijiang often eats business meals, and her standards for food are low—just not hard to eat. Together with Liang Yan, she freeloaded on the Su Family's breakfast, and Zhu Xueheng, who echoed his daughter's remark, indeed found that the dishes were not as tasty as those of the Su Family.

But taking food prepared at home to eat out seems a bit foolish? Zhu Xueheng thought he needed to find a good excuse.

Thanks, darlings, for the votes~
