"But think about it, my spirit attribute growth is very high. When I reach the eighth rank, I'll be the one giving you attributes. It's like you're borrowing some spirit from me now, and I'll pay you back with interest in the future."

Lan Qi analyzed it for her.

Tata's attributes were balanced, with high growth potential in every aspect.

In short, a super soldier.

As for magic, Tata was only skilled in mental interference and curse reflection, which meant she had the stats but a simple mechanism, making her easily countered.

This was the opposite of the Great Poet of Love, who had a powerful mechanism but lacked the stats.

And Lan Qi had both the mechanism and the stats, making him a Trisolaran.

"So, do you want to wear this bracelet?"

Talia sized him up and asked.

Magic card-type equipment jewelry was good because it could be hidden in the soul space and didn't need to be worn all the time, drawing everyone's attention.

"Let's not talk about whether I want to or not; first of all, there's no way you'd want to. This card is purely detrimental to you."

Lan Qi shook his head, spread his hands, and walked out of the prize center.

"..."

Boss Cat felt that neither of them mentioned whether they wanted to wear it or not.

Instead, they kept probing the other's intentions.

"You just need to tell me if this bracelet is useful to you."

Talia's voice was half a degree colder.

Even though she felt Lan Qi was thinking about impolite things again, she didn't care too much as long as he didn't say it in front of her. She was too lazy to arrest him.

"Of course it's useful. It can improve my spirit attribute by about fifteen to twenty percent."

Lan Qi felt Talia's power and honestly answered her.

"I'm lending you my attributes, and you have to return them to me in the future. I'm only lending them because I know you have an important mission. Otherwise, I wouldn't agree to wear a pair of accessories with you."

Talia murmured, putting away the bracelet.

This made Lan Qi slightly stunned.

He didn't expect Talia to actually be willing to do this kind of deal.

Soon, he showed a cunning smile again.

"Heh heh heh, I'll unbind it when my spirit attribute is higher than yours."

Lan Qi squinted and smiled, saying to Talia.

"Don't unbind it! Keep it bound until you die. You have to pay me interest!"

Talia glared at him and pointed at his forehead.

They walked and argued.

The huge stone arch of the Golden Bee Amusement Park was inlaid with countless sparkling gems, shining in the night, like mysterious fairy lamps guiding visitors forward.

The celebration fireworks still occasionally bloomed above their heads.

The two bought candied apples drizzled with syrup for snacks.

Suddenly, a loud noise pierced the quiet night sky, followed by a series of continuous explosions. Half the sky seemed to be lit by colorful flames, then fell like a meteor shower, blending into the starry night, until it dimmed again.

Lan Qi seemed to have thought of something, suddenly stopped, palm up, and held out a fist to Talia.

"Oh right, this is for you."

He said.

Talia looked at his gradually opening palm in confusion, but it was empty.

"Are you playing with me?"

She frowned and asked.

Lan Qi nodded.

Just as Talia was about to get angry.

The moment Lan Qi turned his palm down, he pulled a semi-transparent white card out of the air like a magic trick. When he showed it to Talia again, it had turned into a doll held in his hand.

It was a cute version of the gray-haired little devil doll, but unlike the Great Poet of Love, she had golden eyes.

[Tata Doll]

[Category: Summon Card]

[Rank: White Common]

[Tier: 3]

[Effect: Other than being pretty, it's not useful for anything else. It can make people feel a little better.]

[Note: Happy Birthday.]

"I was going to give it to you tomorrow, but since I happened to see you here, I'll give it to you now."

Lan Qi's figure was illuminated again by the fireworks in the sky, and he smiled.

"..."

Talia looked at Lan Qi, touched and with a complicated expression.

So, this kid really remembered her birthday.

She really wanted to tell Lan Qi that she didn't particularly want his gift because she didn't know how to calculate it, but at this moment, she felt that this gift was particularly satisfying.

"Thank you."

Talia took the little doll from Lan Qi and bowed slightly to thank him.

"Uh."

Lan Qi looked at her, seemingly unable to put together any words.

So Tata could really look like a princess.

"I was already a princess."

Talia raised her eyes to meet Lan Qi's gaze.

Lan Qi reflexively took half a step back.

"What's the use of this doll?"

Talia stopped paying attention to Lan Qi, turned the doll back and forth, and looked at it in confusion.

She remembered that Lan Qi had made a Tier 3 white card called [Little Love Doll] during the card master registration exam.

The effect was to slightly seal and weaken the target's emotions through singing, making their mind calm, which was somewhat useful.

But this card didn't even have an effect.

"What's the use? I'm looking for the answer too."

Lan Qi covered his mouth and his shoulders trembled with laughter as if he had remembered something very happy.

"Are you implying something?"

Talia stared at Lan Qi, moved closer, and stared at him with her bright golden pupils.

"No."

Lan Qi blinked innocently.

He even tilted his head slightly to fifteen degrees.

"Phew—"

Talia was amused by this *biyang*.

But she already knew a little about how to deal with Lan Qi.

She leaned in a little closer and imitated the voice of the Great Poet of Love in Lan Qi's ear:

"Thank you, Lan Qi-gege."

She said in an extremely gentle and sweet voice.

"..."

Lan Qi was speechless on the spot, as if petrified, his expression completely frozen.

Then he felt a chill, hugged himself, and goosebumps rose all over his body.

"Ahhh, kill me!"

He felt his brain trembling.

Even Boss Cat felt that the mount was unstable for a moment and jumped to the ground.

"Meow."

Boss Cat saw Lan Qi breaking down like this for the first time.

He seemed to be really disgusted by Talia, and it felt like bugs were crawling all over him.

It couldn't be said to be disgusting, and it was difficult to describe the shock and discomfort in his heart at this moment.

"See if you dare to provoke me next time."

Talia recalled what she had just said. Although she was a little blush, she could barely accept it since she saw that it had a significant effect on Lan Qi.

"Ahhh!"

Lan Qi hugged his head, feeling that Tata's voice in his ear could not be dispelled, like a magic spell that kept replaying in his mind.

After an unknown amount of time, the two finally seemed to be tired of tossing around, keeping a certain distance from each other and walking on the avenue leading to the exit of the Golden Bee Amusement Park.

"By the way, are you two just going to go back like this?"

Boss Cat looked at the projection map in the amusement park and asked, looking up.

"Otherwise?"

The two looked at it and asked back.

"Now that you're here, let's play in the Golden Bee Amusement Park together. Otherwise, your admission tickets will be a big loss."

The little black cat glanced meaningfully at the activity stage of the Love Maze Academy,

"And don't you two just want to play with each other? I rarely see you two so happy, meow."

"Who wants to!"

The two glared at Boss Cat and retorted.

"Don't want to—"

This time, the little black cat didn't back down at all, but instead dragged its voice out very long, approaching the two of them. Its shadow was very long on the ground, like a giant black tiger.

"Tata, I won't make you supper tonight."

Boss Cat said to Tata, then looked at Lan Qi again,

"And Lan Qi too, you don't have any food at home anymore, and you just ate two bites of a sandwich in a hurry before starting to work. Tata, can I trouble you to help Lan Qi get something to eat?"

"Uh."

Talia hesitated.

"Okay, that's it, I'm leaving, meow!"

Boss Cat walked away with cheerful steps, turning around.

The two stood on the road, particularly quiet, and seemed not to know what to say to each other.

Until Boss Cat's figure completely disappeared.

Making them realize more clearly that only the two of them were left.

It would be a little awkward if they didn't speak again.

"These Golden Bee Coins seem to be enough for us to spend."

Lan Qi took out the points card he had just received from the event administrator and muttered to himself.

The two of them got one hundred and ninety-six Golden Bee Coins from one activity.

"If it's not enough, you have to win games with me until I'm full."

Talia said without looking at him.

"Then let's go."

Lan Qi showed a relaxed smile of relief.

As if casting ripples in the silent night sky, the fireworks bloomed again.

The sky became a vast painting, and the stars were like countless dazzling gems, inlaid in the deep night sky.

In such a midsummer, the two walked on the road, and all their troubles seemed to be blown away by the cool night breeze.
