"Mom, call him and ask."
Ziyan's right hand held Mengmeng with great difficulty, while her left hand rummaged through her bag for her phone.
"Ah! Daddy's here, Daddy's here!"
The Little Princess had sharp eyes. When Zhang Han walked over from the other side, she saw the Daddy she had been longing for.
So, she squirmed in Ziyan's arms, extending her little arms for her Daddy to hold her.
"My little darling, did you miss Daddy?"
Zhang Han quickly took two steps forward, took the Little Princess into his arms, and said with a hearty laugh.
"Missed you, missed you." Mengmeng lightly kissed Zhang Han's cheek.
"How much did you miss me?" Zhang Han chuckled.
"So, so much." Mengmeng's little arms wrapped around Zhang Han's neck, her little face pressed against his cheek.
"Hahaha..." Zhang Han laughed heartily, then raised the three tickets in his right hand and said, "The tickets are ready, let's go in."
"Okay, okay, let's go play, play on the super tall Ferris wheel!" Mengmeng happily waved her hands.
Zhang Han glanced at Ziyan, who stood silently beside him. She wore large sunglasses, so her expression was hidden.
However, Zhang Han's tone when speaking to her was not as gentle as when he spoke to Mengmeng. His voice was a bit cooler as he said, "Let's go in."
With that, he carried Mengmeng and walked inside.
Ziyan froze for a moment, feeling a surge of anger.
What's his deal? He speaks to me in such a lukewarm tone?
Even though I'm not as pretty as before with this outfit, I'm still a stunning beauty! Is he blind? Not even a single compliment?
"Hmph! Blind and rude, stubborn old fool!" Ziyan snorted softly and followed them.
Hong Kong's Ocean Park is a world-class theme park that combines marine and land animals, amusement rides, and spectacular performances. It is also one of the most popular theme parks globally, with the highest number of visitors.
It, along with Disneyland, are the two iconic attractions in Hong Kong.
"Ferris wheel, let's go on the Ferris wheel," the Little Princess clamored, wanting to ride it.
Mengmeng always saw the big, tall Ferris wheel on TV and always wanted to ride it, but her Mommy had never taken her.
"Okay, okay, let's go," Zhang Han said with a smile.
Zhang Han walked directly towards the Ferris wheel with Mengmeng in his arms, not bothering to see if Ziyan was following or even looking back.
This behavior truly infuriated Ziyan!
Ungrateful little brat!
Ziyan glared at Mengmeng irritably. It's one thing for her father to be like this, but has she forgotten about me too after getting into Zhang Han's arms?
Ziyan was very angry, and the consequences were severe.
She deliberately slowed her pace, wanting to see when they would notice her. If they didn't, she'd just go play by herself!
Fortunately, while they were queuing, Mengmeng's clear, big eyes scanned left and right.
"Huh? Where's Mommy? Daddy, Mommy's lost," Mengmeng said nervously, her tone filled with urgency and fear.
Zhang Han looked around and saw Ziyan about ten meters behind them. He said, "She's not lost, she's right there, look."
As he spoke, Zhang Han lifted Mengmeng over his head.
Standing higher, she could see farther. After being lifted, Mengmeng immediately spotted Ziyan behind them. She called out in her milky voice, "Mommy, Mommy, I'm here, come quickly."
"Hmph!"
Ziyan snorted and squeezed through the crowd.
"I thought you'd forgotten Mommy," Ziyan said irritably.
"No, I didn't. Mommy, hug," Mengmeng extended her little arms.
Ziyan hugged the Little Princess, and her inner frustration finally dissipated.
After queuing, they walked up the stairs to the bottom of the Ferris wheel. At the staff's signal, the three quickly entered a small cabin.
"Clang."
The staff member closed the door, and the Ferris wheel slowly left the station.
The Ferris wheel didn't move fast and didn't stop. People could enter and exit at their own pace. The cabin had crescent-shaped seats with a central rotating disc. The surrounding glass was very clean, offering a clear view downwards.
Zhang Han and Ziyan sat opposite each other, while Mengmeng was in her Mommy's arms, her big eyes looking around, appearing very happy.
But as the height gradually increased, reaching halfway up, Mengmeng became a little scared. She stopped chattering and said pitifully, "Scared, so scared."
"Don't be scared, Mengmeng, come, Daddy will hold you," Zhang Han said, pulling Mengmeng over and comforting her. "Don't be afraid, it's okay. It's very safe in here. Look at the distant scenery, see the sea, see the birds..."
Zhang Han kept distracting Mengmeng. At first, it was quite effective, but as they neared the top.
The wind outside the cabin picked up, causing it to sway slightly. The rotating shaft connecting the cabin to the Ferris wheel began to creak.
The sounds were clearly audible inside the cabin, creating a psychological effect. It made the cabin feel unstable, subconsciously leading to thoughts of accidents and fear.
It wasn't just Mengmeng; many adults would feel this fear.
Zhang Han's dining companion, for example.
Ziyan's eyes, hidden beneath her sunglasses, were tightly shut. She pursed her lips, gripping the seat cushion with all her might. She was terrified, but no one was there to comfort her.
Zhang Han, only paying attention to the extremely nervous Mengmeng, playfully lifted his white t-shirt and covered Mengmeng's head, playing peek-a-boo with her.
After a while, Mengmeng calmed down and started giggling again.
It wasn't until the Ferris wheel passed the highest point and began descending towards the ground that Zhang Han let the Little Princess out, softly saying:
"See, we're going down soon."
"Wow, Daddy, there are so many little people down there."
"Daddy, look over there, so many balloons."
"Daddy, look, look..."
Mengmeng had forgotten her fear and was excitedly pointing things out to Zhang Han.
"Whoosh..."
Ziyan also opened her eyes and let out a long sigh of relief, her tense heart finally relaxing.
Unknowingly, her back was already damp with sweat. At the same time, she felt a flicker of dissatisfaction towards Zhang Han. Why was he only comforting Mengmeng and not her?
After getting off the Ferris wheel, Zhang Han carried the Little Princess to their next destination, the Ocean Wonders Aquarium.
Here, it felt like walking from a blue, dreamlike palace into the depths of the ocean, which delighted the Little Princess.
Zhang Han and Ziyan took a few photos together with Mengmeng. While taking pictures, a woman in her twenties standing nearby smiled and said:
"Shall I take a photo of you three as a family? It would be a shame if you couldn't take a group photo since you're taking turns."
"Oh." Ziyan, holding her phone, was slightly taken aback and handed it over.
"Smile, you can stand a little closer. The Little Princess is so cute. Yes, just like that. Okay." The woman enthusiastically took three photos.
This seemed to be the family's first group photo.
Ziyan's heart felt a little complicated.
After thanking her, the kind woman left.
Continuing their exploration, the most impressive part of the aquarium for Mengmeng was the towering rotating tank. Silver Arowanas moved and fed within, swirling like a silver mist, as if stepping into a fantasy world.
They had seen enough, and it was already one in the afternoon.
Ziyan suggested going to the Sea Dragon King Restaurant to eat and rest.
The Sea Dragon King Restaurant was located inside the aquarium, allowing them to enjoy delicious food while admiring the underwater world.
Looking at the surroundings, Zhang Han considered whether he should create a real underwater theme park for Mengmeng in the future.
While eating, Zhang Han took out a bottle of mineral water containing pure yang water from his bag.
"Mengmeng, drink this water." Zhang Han opened the cap and prepared to feed it to her.
Mengmeng, without questioning what it was, opened her mouth to drink.
Ziyan was startled and exclaimed, "Hey! What is this? You're giving this to Mengmeng?"
"This is something good," Zhang Han replied with a faint smile.
Gulp, gulp...
Mengmeng drank about a third of it. She took her mouth away from the bottle and patted her belly, saying in a milky voice:
"I'm, I'm full."
"You can drink the rest," Zhang Han said, handing the water bottle to Ziyan.
"Who wants to drink your crappy water!" Ziyan refused verbally, but her body was honest. She directly reached out and took the water bottle.
As she took the first sip, Ziyan only tasted a faint, fresh fragrance.
This isn't milk?
Ziyan was slightly stunned. The fragrance made her unconsciously drink all the water in the bottle. After finishing, she still felt a sense of lingering desire and asked:
"What kind of water is this?"
"Water that's beneficial for the body," Zhang Han replied calmly, then picked up the Little Princess and stood up, heading towards the back.
"Where are you going?" Ziyan asked.
"The restroom."
Ziyan was about to ask why he was taking Mengmeng to the restroom, but the next moment, the churning in her stomach made her understand the reason.
"This scoundrel! Is this a laxative?"
Ziyan gritted her teeth, stood up, and ran to the bathroom.
Pure Yang Water can improve a person's physique. It's common knowledge that everyone has some unhealthy aspects within their bodies, such as thick blood, kidney deficiency, erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, and so on.
But after drinking Pure Yang Water, these unhealthy aspects can be improved, as if reborn. Since the body contains toxins, the method of detoxification is diarrhea.
In the bathroom, Ziyan continuously cursed Zhang Han in her heart. She felt a tingling sensation all over her body, even her skin. After nearly twenty minutes in the bathroom, she finally came out. When she washed her hands and saw herself in the mirror, Ziyan's expression changed slightly.
Her cheeks were incredibly smooth. The foundation she had applied that morning and her two beauty marks were gone, making her look as if she hadn't worn any makeup at all. Her skin was so soft and tender that it seemed like it would ooze water if pinched. Moreover, she felt refreshed and invigorated, with all the fatigue from playing for three hours completely gone.
"That water... is it really a good thing?"
Ziyan wondered. She walked out of the bathroom and saw Zhang Han and Mengmeng enjoying the freshly delivered delicacies.
"Zhang Han, what did you just give us to drink?" Ziyan demanded after sitting down.
"It's a sort of tonic," Zhang Han replied. "See? Your skin has improved a lot, hasn't it?"
"Then why didn't Mengmeng change?" Ziyan asked, confused.
"I did change! Mengmeng got prettier!" Mengmeng mumbled indistinctly while eating the food.
"Mengmeng is still young, her skin is naturally good. How old are you? You always wear makeup, and foundation and things like that are harmful to your skin," Zhang Han said, his tone showing some disdain when mentioning makeup.
