Achu and the others got off the Rapid Speed Halo and were following the crowd towards the exit when they received a message from Jiang Nan.
Jiang Nan: "Captain and I are already at the restaurant. When are you guys coming?"
Fangfang had considerately reserved a table for them last night. Achu looked at the time and replied that they would be there soon.
He put away his phone and said, "Let's go eat. Captain and the others are already here."
Lao Fan perked up. "Sure, I'm starving."
Xiao Yuan also nodded.
The restaurant was a little far from where they were now, so the three of them took some time to arrive. From afar, they could see the majestic and exquisite castle.
The restaurant was inside the castle. It was lunchtime, so it was almost full of tourists. The restaurant was decorated in the style of Disney's sweet fairy tale. The private rooms were divided according to their theme. Jiang Nan and the others were in the Sleeping Beauty themed private room. Lao Fan and the others were led into the private room by the waiter, but they only saw Ye Xiaoran.
Lao Fan pulled out a chair and sat down. He asked curiously, "Where's Jiang Nan?"
Ye Xiaoran said calmly, "She's downstairs taking photos with the princess."
"Eh?" Achu was surprised. "Captain, you're not going with her?
Then who's taking photos of her? "
Ye Xiaoran: "The staff."
Speaking of this, he frowned slightly.
Actually, he wanted to go down with her, but she insisted that she could do it herself, so he had to give up.
As he spoke, he had already sent a message to Jiang Nan.
Jiang Nan had already finished taking a picture with the Disney princess, but she dilly-dallied and refused to return to the private room. There was no other reason other than the words she had impulsively said while eating the cake just now. She was still brooding over it!
Although Captain would misunderstand and not make it too awkward, it was still a little embarrassing …
Why couldn't she control her mouth?!
Jiang Nan hammered her head in frustration.
Buzz — —
Her phone vibrated and a message from Ye Xiaoran popped up on the screen.
As soon as she saw the familiar name, her heart skipped a beat. She couldn't stop panicking, but when she took a closer look, she deflated.
It turned out that he was telling her to go back for dinner.
Jiang Nan didn't know if she was disappointed or something else. She was depressed for a while, but she soon cheered up. It was good that there were other people present to avoid embarrassment. As for the little conflict in her heart, she would be able to convince herself soon!
Jiang Nan returned to the private room. Lao Fan greeted her warmly as soon as he saw her. "Come, come. The dishes are all here. We're just waiting for you."
There were already several plates of exquisite appetizers on the round table. Jiang Nan took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down as she sat down beside Ye Xiaoran.
Lao Fan asked while eating, "What about this afternoon?
Jiang Nan, why don't you continue taking photos until the end? "
Speaking of this, he was really convinced. Jiang Nan basically spent the whole morning taking photos and did not try any of the attractions. It was as if he was strolling around Disney as if it was a large-scale comic exhibition.
Jiang Nan hummed and hesitated.
Actually, she really wanted to see the float parade in the afternoon. It was also a Disney attraction. There were two events in one day. She couldn't make it to the noon float parade, so she didn't want to miss the afternoon float parade.
But if she did that, it seemed like she would have to split up with the others again … And the captain had been with her the whole time and did not play anything either.
With this delay, Ye Xiaoran said calmly, "Let's see the float parade in the afternoon."
Lao Fan thought he heard wrong. "Huh?"
Ye Xiaoran was too lazy to repeat himself and ignored him.
He was not interested in the attractions or the photo parade. The choice between the two just depended on who was playing.
Achu had already seen through everything. "Lao Fan, know your place. A third wheel should have the self-awareness of being a third wheel."
Don't always think about disturbing the couple's private time.
Lao Fan suddenly understood after his reminder.
F * ck, he was really stupid. They had already split into two teams in the morning, but he didn't realize that the two of them wanted to be alone.
But it made sense. Usually, everyone was noisy at the base, and the training was heavy. There was basically no extra time. Now that they were finally out, it was time to cultivate their relationship.
Jiang Nan saw that they were all thinking the wrong way. Ye Xiaoran had no intention of explaining. She was anxious and embarrassed.
This was not the first or second time this kind of misunderstanding happened. To be honest, she was secretly happy. Although she knew that Ye Xiaoran didn't reject it because he didn't take it to heart, since he didn't express his unhappiness, did that mean he didn't reject it?
When she liked someone, she was always happy to be involved with him. She would fantasize about illusory possibilities. Perhaps the other party would just casually glance at her, and she would be able to imagine which kindergarten their future child would go to.
Jiang Nan took a sip of her drink to calm down. She whispered to Ye Xiaoran, "Captain, actually …"
Ye Xiaoran said, "I want to see it."
Jiang Nan choked. She looked like she was in a daze.
Ye Xiaoran added, "You're not the only one who's a fanatic."
Jiang Nan was speechless.
Uh, forgive her for her poor eyesight. She really couldn't tell which part of him looked like a Disney fanatic.
He was very calm when he saw Disney princesses and various cartoon characters. He didn't scream or ask for photos. He also didn't buy any souvenirs. Could it be that he was a fanatic purely based on his imagination?
But Jiang Nan definitely wouldn't say this out loud. After complaining, she couldn't help but sigh. The captain was indeed the captain. Even the way he expressed his love was different from others!
…
On the other side, Lao Fan listened to their conversation with a puzzled expression.
F * ck, what were these two talking about? Why couldn't he understand!?
If he didn't understand, he had to ask. Lao Fan didn't dare to disturb the main character, so he carefully poked Achu. "Hey, do you know what they're talking about?"
Achu: "… Did you forget what I just said?"
Lao Fan: "Uh, you said a little too much. Which one were you referring to?"
Achu: "…"
He had only said one thing since he entered the room!
Achu took a deep breath and patiently repeated three times, "A third wheel should have the self-awareness of a third wheel."
Lao Fan was nagged like he was chanting scriptures, so he quickly begged for mercy. "Okay, okay, I'll remember it. I'll really remember it."
They didn't make much noise. Jiang Nan saw them whispering in each other's ears. She didn't know what they were talking about, but she suddenly remembered something. "Oh right, why were the captain and I kicked out of the team?"
She wanted to shout in the group, but she couldn't find anyone in the team chat. It was the same for the captain.
Achu was shocked, but he quickly calmed down. He wouldn't tell the truth, so he cooperated with her and revealed a surprised expression. "How did this happen?
Did the Fangfang press the wrong button?
It's okay, I'll pull you guys back later! "
Lao Fan muttered, "… Fangfang is really a case of a person sitting at home, but trouble will fall from the sky."
Achu kicked Lao Fan under the table.
Jiang Nan didn't suspect much, so she believed him. However, Ye Xiaoran glanced at Achu, making the latter a little scared.
But Ye Xiaoran didn't say anything.
After dinner, everyone split up. Jiang Nan pulled Ye Xiaoran into the Marvel Heroes headquarters. There were many superheroes here. She looked around excitedly, and when she saw a superhero, she ran over to line up for a photo.
Ye Xiaoran stayed by her side the whole time. He hated crowded places the most, but now he was willing to block the crowd for her.
It was a little strange.
And she didn't know when it started, but she was half-protected in his arms. The girl's soft and warm body was pressed against his chest. She was as soft as cotton candy, unable to withstand the slightest bump.
From time to time, there would be people pushing them from behind. Every time they pushed, the two of them would be closer than before, as if there was a strong heat coming from where they touched. Ye Xiaoran was unfamiliar with this feeling. He was at a loss for what to do, but he was also attached to it.
Jiang Nan was completely unaware of the change in his mentality. She didn't even know that the two of them were now as close as a real couple.
She stood on her tiptoes and looked at the endless line in front of her. She smacked her lips and said, "Oh my god, Spider-man is so popular. He's worthy of being my favorite superhero."
Like.
He had heard her use this phrase many times today. Every time they met a cartoon character or a Disney princess, she would shout it, as if it was her exclusive slogan.
Inevitably, he suddenly remembered that she had said that she liked him.
Inexplicable irritation welled up in his heart. He usually had mood swings, but today was an exception. His emotions had surged several times, and he could only attribute it to the environment.
He couldn't help but say, "You like so many people."
Jiang Nan didn't think much of it. "Of course, but there's only one person I like the most."
Ye Xiaoran subconsciously asked, "Who do you like the most?"
— — You.
These two words circled around Jiang Nan's mouth, but she swallowed them in the end.
— — I can't say whatever I want without thinking anymore!
— — If I repeat the same mistake, I'll be the only one embarrassed!
She secretly became alert and coughed to cover it up. "Spider-man."
Ye Xiaoran was speechless.
His eyes gradually darkened.
She probably wanted to persuade Ye Xiaoran. Jiang Nan counted carefully. "Most of the other superheroes are favored by the heavens. They come from prominent families and have outstanding IQs. One look and you can tell that they're not ordinary people. Such superheroes are cool, but unreal.
Spider-man is different. He's very much like the people who live around us. He's kind and upright, but there are times when he's afraid and timid …
"And Spider-man is very gentle. Gentle people are the treasures of the world, and they're the type that I can't resist …
"Of course, the most important thing is that Tang XX also acted as Spider-man!
Captain, have you seen that movie?
It's super cute and super realistic!
It's really Spider-man! "
Jiang Nan became more and more excited as she spoke. She turned to look at him, her eyes shining like stars.
He was very familiar with this gaze. She usually looked at him with this gaze. But now, although she was looking at him, she was talking about someone else.
