Seeing that there was going to be a war, Su Yi tried to say something nice to both girls. He didn’t want his friendship with Li Yanmo to get affected because of a girl. “Well, Tiantian is younger than you. Jiajia, I can buy you sweets later.”

“I want coconut milk candy.” Xu Jiajia glared at Ning Tiantian, then acted like a spoiled princess in front of Su Yi and took Su Yi’s arm. The others all looked at how she turned into a totally different person in just a minute.

Ning Tiantian was quiet. She thought that the Oscar owed Xu Jiajia one.

Because it was the weekend, the playground was full of people. Cookie, in a light blue cotton suit, was standing in front of a marshmallow trolley with three pink marshmallows in her hand. When he saw Ning Tiantian, she immediately waved to her happily. “Tiantian, I’m here!”

“What a big marshmallow!” Ning Tiantian ran over and dribbled. She took the marshmallow from Cookie and gave one to Li Yanmo. “Inky, you can have this one.”

Li Yanmo didn’t take it and said, “I don’t like sweets.”

“He doesn’t like it, but I do!” Su Yi’s head suddenly popped out from the back and took the marshmallow from Ning Tiantian with a laugh. “Oh, so sweet. Em, this little girl is Cookie?”

“How do you know my name?” Cookie raised her face from the marshmallow and looked curiously at Su Yi. Then, she turned to Tiantian and asked, “Who is he?”

Ning Tiantian took a bite of marshmallow and said, “Well, when I was speaking to you on the phone, he was just beside me. He was Inky’s classmate, Su Yi.”

Su Yi immediately raised his chin and made a pose that he thought was very cool.

“Su Yi, Why are you going so fast? Wait for me!” Xu Jiajia finally caught up with Su Yi.

When Cookie heard the voice, the marshmallow in her hand suddenly dropped and fell to the ground. Her face suddenly changed.

“Marshmallow…” Ning Tiantian looked at the marshmallow on the ground. She couldn’t eat it if it got dirty. Cookie’s scared and shocked face made her wonder what happened. She pulled Cookie’s sleeves. “Cookie, what’s wrong with you?”

Cookie lowered her head and didn’t speak. Instead, Xu Jiajia hugged Su Yi’s arm and asked him to buy coconut milk candy.

“Wait a minute. I’ll buy a marshmallow for Cookie.” Su Yi said and pulled his arm away quickly.

“Who is Cookie?” Xu Jiajia asked with a frown.

Ning Tiantian wouldn’t tell her, and Li Yanmo wouldn’t talk to her. When Su Yi came back and gave a marshmallow to Cookie, Xu Jiajia noticed that there was a little girl about the same age as Ning Tiantian. “What you are doing up here?”

At a glance, Xu Jiajia recognized Cookie.

“Do you know each other?” Su Yi left the marshmallow to Cookie’s soft hands and looked at the two with confusion.

“I don’t know her!” The two girls denied at the same time. They first glanced at each other, then turned away, as if they could not see each other.

Ning Tiantian touched her chin, and a trace of doubt crossed her clear eyes. “Do they really not know each other?” Ning Tiantian thought.

Li Yanmo frowned a little impatiently and went to the playground quickly. “Let’s hurry up.”

He took Ning Tiantian’s hands, and Tiantian was holding Cookie. Cookie took a bite of the marshmallow, which tasted much sweeter than the one she bought for herself.

Today was the first day of the reopening of the playground. Not only had a lot of new equipment had been added, but children were also offered a lot of discounts. Those under 1.2 meters were free of charge, and those under 1.5 meters got 50% off.
