“Since you’re here, then there’s no need to hurry and leave! The tickets have already been paid for, so why don’t you let them stay here to relax? I feel like they’ve been wanting to come to theme park to play.”

“The tickets have been paid for?” The woman turned to the man. “Brother, where did you get the money?”

“Sell, rubbish, I collect them,” the man stammered, and he looked scared of this woman.

“Have I treated you badly before? I never brought you here because I’m afraid that you might get into an accident!” The woman appeared embarrassed. Perhaps from her youth, her big brother had been the reason that she could not hold her head high.

“Regardless, I’m about to be late for work. It’ll be easy for you two to get into an accident if you stay here. Come on, let’s quickly go home.” The woman sounded stern. The middle-aged man hesitated, but when he saw his daughter’s eyes, he persisted and shook his head.

“Why don’t you let them stay here? I’ll stay with them and watch over them. I promise nothing will happen to them. After they’ve visited everything, I’ll personally take them home.” Chen Ge took the responsibility on. The service was flawless. Seeing how kind Chen Ge was, the woman started to hesitate as well.

“Don’t worry, every attraction at our park has passed the examination. If the attraction is dangerous and too much, even if they want to, I won’t let them get on it.” Chen Ge attempted to persuade her for a long time, but the woman still refused. She seemed to have some difficulty that she could not say.

“It’s not that I don’t want them to stay… you don’t understand.” The woman waved at Chen Ge, and the two walked several meters away. After making sure that the father and daughter would not hear them, the woman finally revealed her worry. “My brother and Wen Wen are a bit not right in the head. My brother is slightly better, but Wen Wen’s condition has not stabilized—she could act up at any time.”

“What kind of illness is this?”

The woman sighed softly. “It’s a family illness. It’s mental retardation. When she acts up, it’ll be no different from epilepsy. It’s very troublesome.”

“Have you brought them to the doctor? I mean, what did the doctor say? Is there a chance for them to be cured?” Chen Ge had a feeling that the girl should face more than just a family illness. To be chosen as a special visitor by the black phone, there had to be some secret surrounding her. The girl’s father was mentally-retarded and could not communicate normally, so this woman became Chen Ge’s opening.

“Their hereditary illness cannot be cured—it can only be improved…” The woman turned to look at the man and the girl. “My family has a short life expectancy. Perhaps my ancestors have done something to offend the gods. When they’re alive, they have to suffer the pain from the illness, but even for myself, who is normal, life is not easy either. I broke up with my boyfriend of many years because of them as well. I couldn’t just ignore them, but my boyfriend refused to take them on.”

“You’ve been taking care of them? Where is your brother’s wife?”

“That woman was just there to cheat my family’s money!” The mention of this woman made her grit her teeth in anger. “If not for her, we would not have ended up in this state. Initially, I also thought that she would look after my brother, but she was just in it for the money. After giving birth to Wen Wen, she abandoned them and ran.

“I also don’t know how long I can hold on. I’m already thirty-four this year.” Speaking of this sad part, the woman’s tone rose, and she caught herself after a while. “I’m sorry for losing myself.”

She turned to look at the pair with complicated emotions. “Fine, perhaps I should respect their decision. If they want to stay, then they should, but you have to guarantee their safety.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll be by their side.” Chen Ge had not gone out last night, so he did not need to sleep.
