Chapter 165: 165. Don’t pretend to be strong if you’re scared

"You didn’t accompany me to play anywhere today. It was dad who played with me."

Qiao Xu, who heard the continuous screams around her, frowned and wanted to refuse. But when she met her son’s pleading eyes, she finally nodded, "Alright."

Qiao Yi showed his happiness, grabbed both of them, and went to line up.

Lu Moqing glanced at Qiao Xu’s locked brow and slightly pale face, frowned, and said softly, "If you’re scared, don’t go. I’ll accompany Qiao Yi up."

Qiao Xu glanced at him with a faint look, "It’s fine, I can do it."

She had just never played such a thrilling game before. Hearing those screams, she instinctively had some resistance.

When it was their turn, Lu Moqing held his son on his lap and fastened the seatbelt, and Qiao Xu sat beside him.

He glanced at Qiao Xu and saw her hands nervously resting on the armrests, her expression serious and tense, completely different from the way she confronted him head-on.

He couldn’t help but chuckle lightly, "Are you really not afraid?"

Hearing the ridicule in Lu Moqing’s tone, Qiao Xu gave him a cold glance and did not answer.

When the roller coaster started slowly and then accelerated, Qiao Yi, sitting on Lu Moqing’s lap, screamed excitedly. Qiao Xu closed her eyes, wanting to scream but unable to. It seemed like all her screams were stuck in her throat.

With all sorts of piercing screams in her ears, Qiao Xu felt as if her whole body’s bones were about to be thrown out. Her mind was blank, and she had no thoughts, just wishing it would stop soon.

The short roller coaster ride, less than two minutes long, felt like an entire century to her.

When the roller coaster stopped, Xiao Qiao Yi unfastened his seatbelt and excitedly jumped off Lu Moqing’s lap. As for Qiao Xu, her face was pale, and her hands trembled slightly as she unfastened her seatbelt and silently walked step by step.

Lu Moqing was worried about her and reached out his hand to support her arm. There was a barely noticeable trace of heartache in his eyes, "Are you okay?"

"I’m..."

Just as she opened her mouth, she threw up.

Lu Moqing anxiously supported her as she moved to the side, patting her back and taking a sip of water handed to her by a passerby.

After vomiting, Qiao Xu felt much better. She swore that this would be the last time she rode a roller coaster in her life.

"Here, drink some water to rinse your mouth."

She took the water absentmindedly and took a sip, returning the water bottle to Lu Moqing, meeting his slightly dissatisfied dark eyes.

"If you’re scared, you don’t have to pretend to be brave. Nobody is laughing at you!"

Qiao Xu glared at him, wanting to argue but unable to. In the end, she just spoke softly, "Who said I was scared? I’m just not quite used to it."

"Yes, yes, President Qiao is talented and brave."

Qiao Xu: "..."

She didn’t want to talk to Lu Moqing at the moment.

"Are you feeling better? Do you want to rest for a while?"

"No need."

The amusement park was about to close, and Qiao Yi had played all day, so he was almost tired. Lu Moqing said, "Let’s go home."

Qiao Xu hadn’t completely recovered yet, so Lu Moqing naturally wouldn’t let her drive. He took her keys and sat in the driver’s seat.

Seeing Qiao Xu suddenly vomiting, Xiao Qiao Yi was scared and now sat quietly beside her, whispering, "Mommy, are you okay now?"

"Don’t worry, Mommy is fine."

Seeing her son’s anxious face, Qiao Xu smiled and rubbed his hair, her gaze gentle.
