Rules are meant to be broken

Currently, both of them are in the kids' section. Gu Shangyan was putting coins in the vending machine while An Xiulan asked another question again, "Gu Shangyan, What has a head, a tail, but does not have a body?"

"What do I get if I answer correctly?" He asked. His brain cells were depleting answering her questions. He had to shut her up or soon he would go mad. 

"Ummmm….I will go to a ghost house with you," An Xiulan said. 

"Agreed," Gu Shangyan agreed. His face was still devoid of any expression. "The answer is a coin." 

"This is not fair. It was an easy question. Let me ask you a hard one," An Xiulan stomped her foot on the ground. 

"Go ahead," Gu Shangyan said, taking a sip of Apple juice. 

"What gets sharper the more you use it?" An Xiulan asked, slightly feeling proud. she was sure that he didn't know this one. 

"Something that you don't have," Gu Shangyan replied, tapping her head. 

"En?"

"Brain," Gu Shangyan replied with a straight face. 

"Are you calling me brainless?" An Xiulan roared in anger. 

"Am I?" Gu Shangyan raised his brow. 

An Xiulan scratched her head, not knowing what to say. 

Never mind. 

"Now let's go to the haunted house," Gu Shangyan grabbed her wrist and walked away. 

She was shrieking loudly inside the haunted house and when she came out, her face was so pale that it appeared as if she was a ghost. Seeing her bad condition, he couldn't help his lips from twitching. 

"Do you know ghosts aren't real?"Gu couldn't help but say. 

"Ghosts are real," An Xiulan whispered, shuddering. "I have seen a woman who was possessed by the spirit of her mother-in-law."

"Oh really do tell where?"Gu Shangyan raised his brow. Was she really raised in America? 

If he didn't know better he would have believed that she was raised in a backward village. 

An Xiulan pursed her lips,  unable to reply. She couldn't tell that the spirit she was talking about was not in this era. However, she was a ghost too, standing before him. 

"Here take this, "He passed her a cup of ice tea. 

"What's that?" An Xiulan asked. 

"Ice tea," He replied and she threw the cup on the ground as if she had seen a ghost. 

"Are you trying to kill me by giving me ice?"An Xiulan looked at him in fear. 

…. 

"Do you wanna ride a bike alongside the beach?" Gu Shangyan asked her later. 

"I don't know how to ride a bike." An Xiulan pursed her lips. There were many things that she didn't know how to do. Driving was one of them. Heck, she couldn't even ride a bike. 

"How is this even possible?" Gu Shangyan asked her in surprise. 

An Xiulan pursed her lips and looked at her feet. 

"Learning to ride a bike is easy. You can learn it in a day. Do you want to learn ?" Gu Shangyan asked the pitiful girl. Her life must be boring back in America. She didn't even have a sibling to hang out with. And her mom was mostly busy with work. 

"What if I fall?" An Xiulan whispered. 

"We can use a bike with training wheels," Gu Shangyan said and showed her the bike. 

An Xiulan agreed to use the said bike. 

"Liar! You said you didn't know how to ride a bicycle!"

Even An Xiulan was in disbelief. How did she know riding a bike? Could it be original An Xiulan know how to ride it? 

As much as she knew, she didn't recall in her memories if the original An Xiulan had ever ridden a bike. 

"An Xiulan, let's race. If you reach the hotel gate first, I will buy you anything," Gu Shangyan said once he was sure that she could ride the bile without his help. He even removed the training wheels. 

"I want to eat crayfish." An Xiulan said in excitement. Her fish memory again forgets that she wanted to know how she could ride a bike without having a knowledge of it. 

Gi Shangyan showed her thumbs-up and rode faster. 

"Gu Shangyan! Drive slowly."

"This is a race, An Xiulan!"

"I don't care! Drive slowly. I want to reach the hotel gate first. I want to eat crayfish."

Although she could ride the bike, she still couldn't surpass Gu Shangyan who was driving at a frightening speed. 

"An Xiulan! This is not how race works! There are some rules and regulations that even we have to follow."

This girl was crazy! Did she even know the meaning of race? 

"I read at the bottom of my school diary that rules are meant to be broken. So, break the rules and slow down. I want to eat crayfish."

An Xiulan didn't realise how shameless she was looking at this moment. 

"You are crazy! Your rules are crazy! Even your school is crazy!"

An Xiulan grinned when he slowed down and let her pass him.
