Captain Swordfish with Blonde Hair Still / An Amusement Park Built from Cotton Candy and Ice Cream

Hratya pointed at Goradya with her right hand, her tone almost commanding.

Too young to disobey her mother Goradya could only nod meekly.

Chapter 460: The blonde Captain Swordfish is still going strong.

"Hratya, we've known each other for so long, yet you're still so distant. And when did you become so nice to me, even preparing tea and refreshments in advance? I've never received such treatment before."

Huang Cao strode into the governor's courtyard with an air of indifference.

His clothing was also very characteristic of Sargol, and he wore a medal on it, signifying his status as a distinguished foreign guest.

This is the kind of capriciousness that comes with connections at the top.

This status was personally verified by several governors, and the approval process took a long time before he obtained it.

This would allow Master Huang to act with impunity in any city in Sargol, and he would even have special diplomatic immunity.

The arrogant and overbearing Aegir would have been incapable of awarding or creating this medal for land dwellers, but Huang Cao accomplished it with the help of Sea Creatures.

It has to be said that it also carries a touch of dark humor.

"Master Huang you have time to visit me, I will naturally give you a proper welcome. In the past, I was always the one who came to the mainland to see you, so there was no opportunity to make preparations in advance."

Hratya, who was still in her daughter's room, rolled her eyes inwardly when she heard the loud voice coming from outside. After giving her a few more quiet instructions, she went out.

As Huang Cao entered the living room, he peered through the open bedroom door and indeed spotted a pitiful-looking blonde girl.

Was Captain Swordfish blonde when he was a child? That's quite surprising. Turning his hair white must be a side effect of being Deep Sea Hunter.

But Skadi seems to have always had white hair, or did it only turn white after she became Deep Sea Hunter in the story?

Huang Cao put the snack, a specialty of Sargol, into his mouth. The taste was not bad; Hratya, this woman, did have a good grasp of details.

Is this child yours?

Huang Cao's "inquiry" made Hratya's heart jump instantly.

Hratya said calmly, "Her parents died in a war, and before they passed away, they entrusted their child to me, so she's not registered in Sargol's household yet."

"Ugh, that wretched Sea Creatures!"

Hratya didn't want to talk about the Huang Cao and was too lazy to press her for details.

Let's continue with the long-term strategy and aim for bigger results.

"What's this girl's name?"

"Goradya, it's a very nice name, isn't it?" Hratya continued calmly in her reply.

"Ms. Goradya, may I call you that? My lovely little one~".

Huang Cao extended his hand with a kind expression. Goradya, who was doing her homework, glanced at her mother without saying a word, and the latter simply nodded.

Hratya thought that if she kept too close Goradya, it might backfire and make the man notice her daughter's special features.

"Good girl, can you tell your brother how old you are this year?"

Huang Cao hugged the young Captain Swordfish and rubbed her head repeatedly.

A rare record of humans touching a swordfish!

"I'm four years old this year." Goradya felt an itch on the top of her head, as if something was about to grow out.

And the older brother's embrace was so warm, and his voice was so gentle, unlike Mom who's always so fierce...

"Oh, I didn't realize you've grown up so much, Ms. Goradya. You really do have the air of a little adult. Have you celebrated your birthday yet?"

Goradya answered instinctively, "I'll be five after today's birthday."

Is today Captain Swordfish's birthday? According to the land-based calendar, this month seems to be November.

It seems I've arrived at the perfect time.

Huang Cao looked at the pile of test papers on his desk, which was taller than a person. It seemed that Goradya had just been writing these papers.

"It's her birthday today, and you still made her write so much?"

Huang Cao said this to Hratya, with a hint of indifference.

However, the latter clearly failed to grasp the implied meaning of those words and instead proceeded to elaborate on his own educational philosophy.

"People without complete parents must run alone; birthdays are just boring rituals that offer almost no benefit to their lives or future development."

"Here we go again. You're not Goradya, so how would you know if birthdays have any meaning?" Huang Cao's words left Hratya speechless, with almost no room for rebuttal.

Because it was her first time being a mother, she lacked experience and naturally had no successful role models before.

"Lovely Lady Goradya, would you like to go out and play with your brother? Since your aunt doesn't want you to go out, you can come with me."

She hasn't finished her homework yet.

"Homework comes every day, but birthdays only happen once a year. You can't have your birth date every day, can you?"

"Little Goradya, even if you don't do your homework today, it won't turn into ferocious deep-sea scales and tear you to shreds, but many people only get to experience a maximum of one hundred birthdays in their lifetime..."

Huang Cao stroked the little head of the Goradya in his arms, and he could tell that the young girl could not hide her emotions.

I long to go to an amusement park, I long to have some free time to myself, and I long to have a carefree birthday.

But she didn't even have the courage to look at her mother, afraid that she would be scolded severely that night after going out to play.

True play is playing without worries... She didn't want to upset her mother.

Hratya stared coldly at her daughter, who was curled up in the Huang Cao, and nodded with satisfaction.

It seems my education has been very effective; I was able to resist such a huge temptation, and I didn't even have the courage to question myself.

While this might be somewhat detrimental to cultivating her courage, what Hratya needs now is for Goradya to completely obey her commands.

"Master Huang, as you can see, Goradya doesn't want to go to the amusement park..."

Huang Cao's expression remained unchanged, but Hratya's actions stirred a hint of anger within him.

What kind of suffering did Goradya endure as a child? No wonder she takes such good care of her teammates later on.

She's so kind; she got caught in the rain and wanted to hold an umbrella for someone else too.

"I said, how come you're so strong-willed, woman? I don't need you to pay for anything."

Huang Cao was well aware of the Little Swordfish's concerns, but his relationship with Hratya was not that of partners; strictly speaking, it was that of a true master and servant.

Huang Cao instantly transformed into a true evil nobleman, but to avoid frightening the little girl in his arms, he still tried to express his thoughts as tactfully as possible.

"I told you I wanted to take this girl out today, Hratya, why are you refusing? Is there some secret about her that I don't know about?"

"Of course not, she's just my comrade's daughter, but I also have the right to educate her."

Of course, there was a major flaw in Hratya's account: many of the consuls knew she had a daughter, but they didn't know who she was.

Therefore, Hratya could only gamble that the Huang Cao's penetration into Sargol was not very deep at the moment, and she had no intention of exploring her own secrets.

It now seems this despicable man genuinely "doesn't know," but we must take precautions early...

Just as Hratya was about to continue her tactful refusal, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her chest, as if countless vines were wrapping around her heart...

I almost forgot, this man's "Seed" is still inside me...

I hold your life in my hands.

My relationship with you is that of master and servant, not partners.

Hratya, you must remember your place and never cross this line.

Otherwise, I wouldn't mind punishing you.

The sharp pain in her heart forced Hratya to agree to Master Huang's request and Goradya go out to play.

Furthermore, Huang Cao doesn't need to worry about Hratya, who lacks maternal instincts, taking revenge on the Little Swordfish.

If she had any humanity left, she wouldn't have done that, because the expression on Goradya when she curled up was basically tantamount to rejection.

He had only managed to get Hratya to reluctantly agree by threatening her with force, Goradya was unaware of what had just happened.

Therefore, this threat was entirely a spur-of-the-moment decision by Master Huang, and both of them were, strictly speaking, "Victims."

Hratya wouldn't doubt Huang Cao too much, after all, in her eyes, the man holding her heart in his hand was just that unpredictable.

However, one victim was happy, and the other was angry.

Chapter 461: An Amusement Park Built with Cotton Candy and Ice Cream

"Auntie, may I go out?"

Goradya looked up and asked cautiously.

Hratya, enduring the throbbing pain in her heart, replied with a forced smile:

"Of course! It's your birthday today, go out and have fun! Just remember not to make this uncle angry!"

Uncle?

Huang Cao, feeling like he'd been called a greasy old man, pouted.

I currently look like a sunny and cheerful young man in his early twenties, not an old man at all.

But it doesn't matter, I, Master Huang, am merciful and can't be bothered with your gossipy ways.

Huang Cao carried the Goradya out of the governor's mansion, leaving Hratya standing there alone like a stick.

"Little Goradya, you can play without worry today. Your aunt has promised not to make you do your homework tonight."

"Thank you, big brother!"

Goradya was very polite and did not listen to her mother and call Huang Cao "uncle".

Huang Cao placed Goradya on its neck, allowing her to experience the world from a higher perspective.

"So beautiful!"

Goradya was stunned by the sights of the amusement park. In fact, she had been drawn to the park since watching the news.

It's a pity I've never had the chance to go out, and even if I did, I wouldn't have the money to spend.

Everything outside was new to Goradya; her life had always revolved around that small world.

Although the governor's mansion was very large, the only places she could move around in were the living room and the bedrooms.

In daily life, one might only see anyone other than the tutor when the mother brings the governor.

"Want some cotton candy?" Huang Cao asked casually after buying two large cotton candies at the amusement park's shopping mall.

"Think..."

At such a young age, Goradya already understood what shyness was. She wondered to herself, was she now essentially eating and drinking for free?

But Mom always said, "He who does not work, does not eat..."

Huang Cao didn't want to delve into so many grand principles, because they were meaningless.

Because this is equivalent to: telling a child life lessons and telling an adult who has been through the trials of society about childlike fun. You're lucky if neither of these two things doesn't jump up and punch you.

If you don't play with these things when you're a child, you won't have the chance to play them when you grow up and become a working animal.

"You don't need to listen to your aunt. Just treat me like your brother. There's no need for these unnecessary formalities between family members."

Family?

Goradya pondered the meaning of those two words carefully in her mind; being so young, she didn't have a deep understanding of this concept.

But the marshmallow was very sweet, and she liked it very much.

"There's no need for such formalities between family members. Just have fun all day! Your brother will pay for everything!"

Huang Cao ran along, wearing the Goradya around her neck, while the latter carefully protected her cotton candy.

The sweetness of the cotton candy melted in my heart, and the world that was once so gloomy, reduced to black and white like an exam paper, gradually became colorful.

She is really happy now.

There are no dazzling numbers and symbols, only the joy of emptying your mind.

Soft marshmallows, sweet ice cream, and fun arcade games.
