Volume 1 Chapter 35 They Made A Plan (2/2)

Ma Rui shook her head. ”No one goes there. You know how dangerous that place is. There is also a rainforest, which is near Tambo. We could go there if I had planned that, but then I'd be putting you, two children, at risk. Your dad isn't here to protect us. Plus, I'm afraid of cannibals!”

”I thought we're going to have some fun. You promised me.” Mo Yuan slightly scowled in displeasure. Going from town to town and sightseeing was fun but doing something new and experiencing something exciting would've been even more fun.

”Oh, I know,” Ma Rui continued, ”why don't we go to Warrego? There's a cottage there that my friend owns. If I ask her, she'll let us use it for free. Do you know what that place is famous for?”

Mo Yuan pondered deeply and tried to think if he ever even heard that name before. With a blank mind, he replied, ”I don't know. This is the first time I heard that name.”

Han Luo looked interested. She walked forward and stood beside him, listening to what Ma Rui said.

”The Warrego area is one of the richest fossicking sites in the whole of Australia. The gold is scattered in the surface soils of the area. We can buy a metal detector, and gold panning tools like a gold pan and shovel. Then we can try looking for gold! What do you think?”

Mo Yuan remained in his deep thought while Han Luo answered avidly, ”Sure, we can do some hunting! As long as I don't hunt cute animals, I'm fine with anything.”

”But” Mo Yuan thought it would be a new experience, but he wasn't planning on digging for fun.

Han Luo instinctively grabbed his hands. ”Big brother, it will be fun since we're going to do this together!”

Mo Yuan's body locked out of shock. It was the first time she touched him and even wanted to do something with him. Perhaps this trip loosened up her guard?

The young boy sighed and turned his face another way. ”Fine, let's do it.” His face was burning hot, maybe because of the sunlight.

”Also, it's autumn so a lot of festivals are going to take place all over the country. We'll stay in Warrego for two days and then we'll come back to attend the festivals.” Ma Rui sighed. ”I wish we could stay here for two weeks but I have to join a competition.”

”It's not a problem, mom. Thank you for bringing me with you.” Han Luo's beam outmatched the light of the sun.

Ma Rui reached out and hugged her. ”Luo'er, you are so cute! What should I do?”

Han Luo giggled at her words. Mo Yuan's countenance had turned warm as he looked at her cheerful smile.
