Fan Ying was upset about something, but her hunger led her to agree to Ye Chen's offer to get food. They waited a long time for expensive turkey legs, which disappointed Fan Ying. Ye Chen then insisted on taking her to a highly-rated, expensive western restaurant, where they enjoyed their meal despite the high cost.

Just like that, Ye Chen was dragged forward by Fan Ying.

"Yingying, slow down, I can barely keep up with you."

Ye Chen said with a helpless expression.

Fan Ying wouldn’t care about Ye Chen’s thoughts; all she wanted now was to quickly enjoy more rides.

The two of them went on must-see attractions like Soaring Over the Horizon, Pirates of the Caribbean: Battle for the Sunken Treasure, and TRON Lightcycle Power Run.

Ye Chen was feeling utterly exhausted, yet Fan Ying seemed to be far from satisfied.

"Brother Ye Chen, let’s go on Dumbo the Flying Elephant and Seven Dwarfs Mine Train."

Fan Ying suggested.

"Yingying, please spare me, you go enjoy them yourself."

Ye Chen refused.

Firstly, he was really tired; secondly, he thought those rides were for kids and didn’t have any interest in them.

Seeing that Ye Chen had no intention of accompanying her, Fan Ying had to go by herself.

"Alright then, you rest here, I’ll go by myself."

"Sure, meet me back here later, call me if you can’t find me."

Ye Chen said.

After agreeing on a meeting spot, Fan Ying quickly went off to enjoy more rides in the park.

Ye Chen knew that Fan Ying had a lot more to try out and wouldn’t be back anytime soon.

He rested for a while and then decided to watch the flower float parade.

The flower float parade was also a must-see attraction here.

Of course, this little girl Fan Ying wasn’t particularly interested in it.

Following the directions, Ye Chen arrived at the parade area, where a large crowd was already gathered, a sea of people.

Even on a regular day, the park was still very crowded.

Ye Chen felt surrounded by people on all sides, practically squeezed in.

Obviously, in such a setting, vigilance was necessary because some might take advantage of the crowd to do bad things.

Ye Chen looked around carefully but saw nothing out of the ordinary.

Since the float parade was scheduled, there were still about ten minutes before it started.

Everyone was anxiously waiting; some people tried to cross the barrier line but were stopped by the staff.

Since Ye Chen arrived late, he ended up at the back of the line, while the people behind him pushed forward.

However, Ye Chen didn’t give them a chance.

"Miss, that’s enough, don’t you see there are many people in front?"

Ye Chen, unable to hold it any longer, glanced at the girl behind him and said.

"There are people in front, why don’t you just push forward? There’s plenty of space up there."

The girl behind replied irritably.

Hearing this, Ye Chen was speechless, thinking, which eye of yours sees any space ahead?

Still, Ye Chen ignored the girl and stood his ground.

Normally, Ye Chen would have given way, but there was a mother and child in front of him.

Ye Chen knew that pushing forward would definitely push into the child.

No matter how the girl tried to push forward, Ye Chen stood firm, like a rock, without moving an inch.

Suddenly, she thought of an idea and smiled.

The girl lightly poked Ye Chen’s back with her hand.

Ye Chen turned around and looked at the girl.

"What is it?"

"Hey handsome, can we switch places? From here, I can’t see anything in front."

The girl said in a playful tone.

She knew that no man could resist her in this way, and he would definitely agree to her request.

"Sorry, I’m not switching. I suggest you keep an eye on your phone and bag."

Ye Chen replied.

This took the girl by surprise; she never expected Ye Chen to refuse her, something that had never happened before.

What made her even more upset was that Ye Chen not only refused to switch places but also reminded her about her phone and bag, which made her very unhappy.

"Fine, don’t switch, why do you care so much."

The girl said angrily.

Being rejected by a man in public made her feel very embarrassed.

While the girl was sulking, a guy next to Ye Chen turned around and spoke to the girl.

"Miss, let’s switch."

Upon hearing this, the girl was overjoyed and quickly said.

"Great, great, thank you so much."

The two of them switched places.

Once the girl stood next to Ye Chen, she glared at him irritably.

"See, if you won’t switch, there’s always someone who will."

Ye Chen was speechless by the girl’s self-satisfaction and felt tired of dealing with her.

He had an intuition that the guy who switched places with the girl didn’t do it out of goodwill but had ulterior motives.

Since the girl was so unappreciative, Ye Chen didn’t bother to engage with her anymore.

After switching places, the girl felt someone frequently bumping into her from behind.

She turned around and saw it was the guy who switched places with her.

"Why do you keep pushing?"

The girl replied irritably.

"Sorry, miss, I’m getting pushed from behind."

The guy said helplessly.

Considering he just switched places with her, the girl decided not to make a big deal out of it.

She gave a faint smile and continued waiting for the float parade.

"Miss, I’d suggest you be careful."

Ye Chen quietly reminded her again.

"You should be careful yourself; you’re not manly at all. You won’t even switch places; you probably won’t ever have a girlfriend."

She glared at Ye Chen and said.

Ye Chen felt wronged; he was kindly reminding her.

Yet she spoke to him like this.

"Forget it; if she doesn’t listen, whatever happens is her own fault."

Ye Chen thought to himself.

At that moment, the float parade began, and the girl felt a little better.

However, during the show, she still felt someone pushing against her from behind.

Because she was enthralled by the parade, she didn’t pay attention.

Even though Ye Chen was watching the parade, he remained vigilant of his surroundings.

The float parade showcased Disney characters, which girls would love.

This girl was no exception; when she saw a character she liked, she wanted to take a picture.

She reached into her bag, only to find that her phone was missing.

"Huh, where’s my phone? It was just here."

The girl muttered to herself.

Even worse, both her phone and wallet were gone.

At this point, a bad suspicion crossed her mind: her phone and wallet had been stolen.

"Catch the thief! There’s a thief here!"

The girl shouted loudly.

However, the people around her were engrossed in watching the float parade and paid no attention to her cries.

After all, it had nothing to do with them, especially amid such an exciting float parade; who would care about someone else’s issues?
