Shawn grabbed Zoe’s slender wrist, his voice slightly rough. “Do you always expose people’s weaknesses so directly!”
In the darkness, Zoe couldn’t help but smile. ‘Shawn, at a time like this, you’re still being arrogant? she thought.
Suddenly, she stood on her tiptoes and abruptly cupped Shawn’s cheeks with both hands. Shawn didn’t know what she was doing, but when her warm lips gently touched his cold forehead, Shawn’s entire body stiffened.
Shawn was stunned. He had never expected Zoe to kiss him. But this moment of surprise seemed to temporarily forget his fear, and even his breathing became a bit smoother.
“It’s magic. Zoe said with a smile.
Shawn naturally didn’t believe in any magic. But Zoe’s actions did provide him with great comfort. Shawn truly didn’t feel as uncomfortable
“You don’t have to be embarrassed. Everyone has fears. When I was little, I was afraid of the dark just like you, but I had loving family members back then. This was how my brother comforted mr. Zor explained.

Perhaps because die was there, coupled with the warns of Zor’s palm, Shawn was no longer controlled by his inner fears.
In the darkness, he could clearly see Zoe’s proble. Even though it was dark, her face appeared more vivid and three–dimensional than ever before, deeply etched into his memory.
He even forgot to let go of Zor’s hand and just obediently followed her toward the unknowit

They finally emerged from the darkness, and Zoe tunes and threw herself into Shawn’s arms. “That’s great. We’re finally out,” she exclaimed.
Shawn was initially stiff, but he quickly grew accustomed to Zoe’s enthrace. As he raised his arms to return the hug. Zoe suddenly let go. I’m sorry. Mr. Ludwig 10% all my fault for unsisting on going to Scary Fann, but don’t worry“
Everything that happened in Scary Farm will stay with me forever. I’ll never tell anyone. It’s our little secret, Zor said, placing a finger to her lips in a cute geduITE.
Shawn pursed his lips, feeling a strange sensation, a kind of tingling i
numbness,
“What else do you want to do next?” This time. Shawn took the initiative to hold Zoe’s hand and led her to other attractions.
Zoe quickened her pace and whispered, “Mr. Ludwig, you can choose the next ride. I’m up for anything.”
Shawn knew Zoe was worried that he might have other fears.
In the past, it had always been Shawn at the forefront of the battlefield, protecting everyone around him. This was the first time someone had taken care of his feelings and carefully protected hun.
“No need. You can do whatever you want,” Shawn said softly.
Zoe then led Shawn to many more attractions, and they all chose relatively safe ones

Shawn asked, “What do you want to eat?”
“Over there will do,” Zoe said, pointing to a fried chicken shop. They found a spot to sit and bought some food.
After taking a bite of her cola, Zor finally got down to business. “Mr. Ludwig, considering you spent the whole day with me today. I’m willing to help you. What was it you wanted to talk to me about today!”
Shawn prepared a burger and placed it in front of Zoe. “How can you be sure?”
“You’re a legendary warrior. There’s no way you’d have the leisure to spend a whole day at an amusement park with me. No one would believe that, right?” Zor was, after all, very smart.
Shawn nodded. “You’re very clever!
“Of course, I am. I am, after all, your girlfriend, Zoe said with a light la
laugh.
Shawn didn’t even realize it, but a faint, almost imperceptible smile flickered in his eyes. “Indeed, a foolish girl wouldn’t be able to handle being my girlfriend”

was taken aback. “Mr. Ludwig, can I take that as you agreeing to continue pretending to be boyfriend and girlfriend?”
However, something unexpected happened next.
In the next moment, Shawn crossed his arms on the table and, with a serious expression, said something to her that she hadn’t anticipated. “No. I want to make our relationship real
