After dinner, Lu Xiao and Ares left the hotel. Ben noticed the pair and came up to them with a smile. "Heading out? I suggest you go toss a coin at the fountain statue in the square. They say it really grants wishes!"
"Thank you, we'll go take a look later," Lu Xiao said, accepting his kind suggestion.
Smiling, Lu Xiao held Ares's hand as they walked away from the hotel. The sun had halfway set, but its afterglow still lingered. Many children were playing by the street, creating a wonderful atmosphere.
For some reason, the place felt exceptionally peaceful and serene, as if the frantic pace of life had slowed to a crawl.
'This is a place where you can really take the time to enjoy life.'
Suddenly, a chubby little toddler tumbled down right at Lu Xiao's feet, startling her. Just as she was about to help him up, his Father ran over. "So sorry to bother you! Don't mind him. This little one loves to stage a fall whenever he sees a beautiful lady. How embarrassing."
