Chapter 954: Chapter 46 Galileo (Monthly ticket bonus chapter!)_4

“`

On the wristwatch, it showed 00:41.

The dream of today was about to end.

Having rushed through and exceeded the exploration target, Lin Xian was quite satisfied.

“See you tomorrow, Gao Wen.”

Lin Xian smiled and waved his hand:

“I still say the same thing… I look forward more to what’s written in your ‘Memory Notebook’.”

“I believe you will change the world again.”

Boom!!!!!

Boom!!!!!

Boom!!!!!

At 00:42, a white light arrived on time, and everything in the world was incinerated.

Then,

darkness.

…

…

…

“Qiaoqiao? Why aren’t you asleep yet?”

Zhao Yingjun rubbed her eyes and sat up from bed.

She had already taken a short nap and was waking up to go to the restroom, but she noticed that Yan Qiaoqiao on the other side of the bed had not slept at all, and instead, was holding a picture frame in her hands, lovingly illuminated by the dim breathing lamp on the bedside table.

Zhao Yingjun yawned:

“Are you too excited to sleep? You’ve been looking forward to Disneyland tomorrow.”

“It’s today.”

Yan Qiaoqiao pointed at the digital clock on the bedside table.

The time displayed June 1, 2024, 00:42.

She turned her head to look at Zhao Yingjun:

“After midnight, it’s today!”

Zhao Yingjun chuckled softly and lowered her head:

“Yes, hehe, you’re absolutely right, today we are going to Disneyland.”

Kids always have a precise concept of today and tomorrow.

Because they always look forward to a specific date.

Perhaps it’s a birthday,

perhaps a vacation,

perhaps a holiday,

perhaps… just like now, a scheduled day to visit Disneyland.

These past few days,

Yan Qiaoqiao had been very excited, checking the calendar and counting the days every day.

This was something Zhao Yingjun once could not empathize with.

She didn’t understand.

It was just a trip to an amusement park; was it necessary to be so excited and care so much?

If Yan Qiaoqiao wanted,

she could actually take her there more often.

Whether it’s Disneyland or any other amusement park, theme park… but previously, Yan Qiaoqiao hadn’t shown much interest.

Zhao Yingjun’s heart sank.

How could she not guess?

For Yan Qiaoqiao, what mattered wasn’t ‘Disney’ but… ‘going to Disney with mom and dad.’

Just like Yan Qiaoqiao now, lying next to the bedside table.

The picture in the frame she was holding was taken on May 20th, captured by a photographer as she and Lin Xian walked along the commercial pedestrian street.

She and Yan Qiaoqiao were walking ahead, while Lin Xian followed behind walking the Pomeranian, VV.

The scene was exceptionally warm.

It felt like a family.

At the same time, it was the feeling of ‘mom and dad’ according to Yan Qiaoqiao.

By some fluke.

The mom and dad Yan Qiaoqiao fantasized about, the family she imagined, should look like this.

It was also,

By some fluke.

The three of them and the dog were already a family.

“Okay, stop looking at that photo now.”

Zhao Yingjun turned Yan Qiaoqiao’s body around, covered her with a blanket, and prompted her to sleep:

“As much as you like that photo, you can’t look at it every day. Besides, if you really want to see it, look during the day.”

Yan Qiaoqiao nodded.

She turned and looked at Zhao Yingjun:

“Can we take VV with us to Disneyland today?”

“VV can’t go.”

“`

Zhao Yingjun shook her head:

“Disneyland doesn’t allow pets, we need to follow the rules.”

“Oh.”

Yan Qiaoqiao noted this point and pointed to the photo frame on the bedside table:

“Then at Disneyland, can we take another photo like this one with Brother Lin Xian?”

“Of course.”

Zhao Yingjun smiled and ruffled her hair:

“As long as you are good and obedient, Lin Xian will definitely—”

At this point,

Zhao Yingjun paused.

When had she started to use this kind of catchphrase?

It was just like the oppressive life she had experienced as a child… before liking something, liking to do something, liking to play something, there were always some conditions imposed by her parents.

You can eat cake after reading this book;

You can go out to play after you finish practicing this piece on the piano;

Being well-behaved means I’ll take you to the amusement park;

Getting first place means I’ll buy you the gift you want.

But…

Is this really necessary?

She clearly knew.

Not every child is that excellent, not every child can score a hundred percent, and rewards shouldn’t be contingent on just being obedient… raising a child isn’t like raising a dog, why all these rigid rules and reward schemes?

“Qiaoqiao, whatever you want, whatever you want to do, just boldly say it.”

After a pause, Zhao Yingjun softly said:
