Chapter 233: Chapter 233: Xiao Xi, We Meet Again

After the intense feeling of weightlessness, there was a gradual steadying. During those brief three minutes, Yuan Xi felt as if she had lost her soul.

When she steadied herself on the ground, Yuan Xi still couldn’t control her trembling hands.

The visitors who got off before her were saying, “What kind of deadly roller coaster is this? I’ve been on roller coasters all over the country, but this is the first time I’ve experienced one that nearly killed me.”

“I’m never going again; it almost gave me a heart attack. I really thought I was going to die.”

“Anyone who rides this is a complete fool! I really wanted to cry out for my mom!”

Listening to their complaints, Yuan Xi was also unsettled, as at the moment of near death, she didn’t think of anything else, not even Lele and Anan. The only thing that filled her mind was the few words she managed to say.

The adults were all expressing their disgust toward this deadly roller coaster.

However, the children playing seemed to be having a great time.

A girl was pleading with her mom, who had already gone weak at the knees, “Mom, let’s go one more time, let’s ride it again.”

The girl’s mother waved her hands, “No more, my little ancestor, please spare me! Even the ancient tortures weren’t as harsh as this, if this was ancient times, all misdeeds would be confessed.”

“Mom, then let’s go on the giant pendulum!”

“No! It’s really paying to torture oneself!”

The little girl looked down dejectedly, “Mom, but I want to play.”

Xiao Shihuo went over to the little girl and said, “I’ll play with you, let’s go on the deadly giant pendulum, along with my brother and sister.”

Yuan Xi looked towards the distant giant pendulum, which suspended people upside down for over three seconds, she exclaimed, “No!”

Huo Shiyan was supporting Yuan Xi and said to Xiao Shihuo, “You go play with this little girl, take the bodyguards with you, I’ll take your sister to the Ferris wheel.”

Xiao Shihuo already had found a playmate and didn’t need Yuan Xi to accompany him anymore.

Yuan Xi followed Huo Shiyan into the Ferris wheel. Once inside, Huo Shiyan held Yuan Xi in his arms, “What did you say on the roller coaster just now?”

Yuan Xi replied, “I didn’t say anything.”

Huo Shiyan looked into Yuan Xi’s eyes and said, “I heard it, I want to hear you say it again…”

His voice was filled with temptation, “Xiao Xi, say it again.”

Yuan Xi also looked into Huo Shiyan’s eyes and whispered in his ear, “I love you.”

Huo Shiyan clasped Yuan Xi’s head and kissed her red lips.

It took Yuan Xi a while to catch her breath.

Huo Shiyan gently bit Yuan Xi’s lip and said, “Let’s go home first, let Little Huohuo come back with the bodyguards.”

“That doesn’t sound good, and besides, we have come all the way here and haven’t seen the fireworks yet. It would be such a waste.”

Huo Shiyan said, “We can see the fireworks…”

After getting off the Ferris wheel, Huo Shiyan took Yuan Xi to the parking lot.

After getting the car, Huo Shiyan had the driver get out, and soon, he drove to an abandoned construction site on the outskirts.

Due to the May Day holiday, there was no one at the construction site.

After stopping the car at the edge of the construction site, Huo Shiyan moved from the driver’s seat to the passenger seat.

Yuan Xi was initially stunned, then realizing what Huo Shiyan intended to do, her face flushed, “We’re outside… what if someone sees us?”

Huo Shiyan said, “There’s no one at this construction site, and this car’s windows are specially treated, you can’t see inside.”

Huo Shiyan hugged Yuan Xi tightly by the waist, reclined her seat completely, leaned over and kissed her red lips, “Say it again, Xiao Xi, say again that you love me.”

Yuan Xi wrapped her arms around Huo Shiyan’s neck and said, “I love you.”

In the darkness of the night, the Ferris wheel was still faintly visible in the distance, and the black Maybach rocked in the night.

After a long time, brilliant fireworks burst in the sky above the amusement park.

Bang!

Yuan Xi looked through the car window at the sky filled with fireworks, her fingers interlocked tightly with Huo Shiyan’s…

—

In the amusement park, Xiao Shihuo and the little girl had played through all the rides and were watching the fireworks.

Xiao Shihuo said to the little girl, “My name is Huohuo, what’s your name?”

“I’m Xingxing, like the stars in the sky. Do you have a Genius Kid watch? Let’s add each other as Genius Kid friends, and come to play in the amusement park together next time.”

Xiao Shihuo replied sadly, “I don’t have a Genius Kid watch.”

Little Xingxing took her watch and said, “Then we can’t play together anymore. Let’s take a selfie.”

Xiao Shihuo leaned towards Little Xingxing and said, “Your watch is amazing; it can even take photos.”

Little Xingxing’s mom was urging her to leave.

Obediently, Little Xingxing waved to Xiao Shihuo and smiled, saying, “Bye-bye, Huohuo. I’m going home now. If we wait until after the fireworks, we’ll get stuck in traffic!”

Xiao Shihuo said, “Will you come to the amusement park again next time? Next time I will definitely have a Little Genius!”

Little Xingxing replied, “I’ll come, bye-bye.”

Xiao Shihuo waved at Little Xingxing with a sense of loss.

Yuan Xi and Huo Shiyuan watched the fireworks until the end before they drove back to Yunsen Court.

Once they were in the garage, Yuan Xi smelled something in the car and said to Huo Shiyuan, “From now on, let’s not let the chauffeur or the bodyguards drive this car.”

Huo Shiyuan laughed softly and agreed, “Okay.”

“You have to wash this car yourself tomorrow.”

Huo Shiyuan chuckled, “Okay.”

Huo Shiyuan almost always fulfilled Yuan Xi’s requests.

During the five-day holiday, Yuan Xi felt she and Huo Shiyuan had just frivolously spent five days together.

At first, she thought she wouldn’t return to Jiang City because of the kids, but she ended up spending more time clinging to Huo Shiyuan.

However, even being together all the time, they never felt tired of each other.

Luckily, Xiao Shihuo would come and urge them to buy a Little Genius for him and go to the amusement park; otherwise, they might never have stepped out of Yunsen Court at all.

After the holiday, Yuan Xi went to the office early in the morning.

She had managed her emails at home over the past few days, so the first day after the holiday didn’t feel too busy.

Yuan Xi made a trip to the HR department and overheard two colleagues discussing the movie box office battle.

“Fang Ming’s fans are really shameless, buying out theaters and boosting ticket sales; every time in the last two hours, they surpass Escape from Galaxy.”

“Escape from Galaxy and The Summit’s Encounter aren’t even in the same league. Escape from Galaxy is clearly the better watch, but its box office always lags behind by ten to twenty million each day, even though it has a high occupancy rate. It’s obvious The Summit’s Encounter couldn’t possibly have such high revenues.”

“That’s right. Today, on a weekday, Escape from Galaxy has already reached a hundred million in revenue, and so has The Summit’s Encounter, but the number of people who reportedly watched the movie clearly doesn’t add up…”

Seeing Yuan Xi approach, the colleagues felt embarrassed as if they were caught slacking off.

Yuan Xi didn’t blame them, as Mi Chen’s work environment wasn’t that oppressive.

After returning to her office, Yuan Xi looked up information about the two movies, and indeed, it was a close race in terms of box office earnings.

Netizens were all sympathizing with Escape from Galaxy, which was surpassed in revenue every day in the last two hours, even though both movies had already exceeded 1.5 billion and might break 2 billion by tonight.

However, it was apparent that Escape from Galaxy had a higher discussion level and more fans doing multiple viewings.

The revenue for The Summit’s Encounter was so abnormal that even netizens noticed, but with the youngest Oscar-winning actor, Fang Ming, involved, his fans felt their group bookings were effective, and now the two movies were causing a fierce debate online.

Yuan Xi was only concerned that Huo Shiyuan’s investment had finally broken even.

“Chairman Yuan.”

Tao Wen came up and said, “A game agency from South Asia wants to meet with you to discuss Mi Chen’s cooperation in South Asia.”

Yuan Xi asked, “Which company?”

“AW—the largest game agency in South Asia. Their president is Yani, an American of Indian descent.”

Yuan Xi said, “Arrange a time for the meeting.”

Tao Wen asked, “Would this afternoon be convenient for you?”

Yuan Xi answered, “Convenient.”

Tao Wen went out to communicate and came back to Yuan Xi and said, “Yani would like to invite you to dinner at Atiya Restaurant…”

Yuan Xi responded, “No need for dinner, have him come to the office for the meeting.”

“Alright.”

After a while, Tao Wen approached Yuan Xi and said, “Yani will be here at four in the afternoon.”

Yuan Xi glanced at the clock and responded, “Okay.”

Yuan Xi reviewed the profiles for AW prepared by Tao Wen, and at 4 PM, as scheduled, Yani arrived at the Mi Chen division.

Yuan Xi went to the reception room, where she saw not only Yani but also Bo Chi who greeted her with a light laugh: “Xiao Xi, we meet again.”
