Chapter 329
"Pretty sister, this is my father and mother."
The little guy was young, and he spoke French very well.
Nora froze. Unfortunately, she knew the French pronunciation of Father and Mother. But Easton was different from Derek.
Faced with her son, she could not refute and could only smile awkwardly.
Derek curled his lips in satisfaction. He felt that his son had finally done a good thing.
Although the little girl selling flowers thought the family was very strange, she smiled and said again, "Sir, you can buy a bunch of flowers for your wife. I wish you a happy life.”
Derek was so happy that he waved his hand and took out the money and bought all the roses, including the basket.
"Happy Valentine's Day, Nora." He handed the flowers over and spoke in French.
Derek's deep voice and affectionate gaze made Nora's heart tremble and her heart began to beat faster uncontrollably. She coughed softly and took the basket over instead of taking the flower in Derek's hand.
"It's not easy for a little girl to sell flowers. It's nice of you to buy all the flowers...and the basket.” Her single sentence indicated that Derek bought flowers because he was a good man. Derek chuckled and didn't care.
Yes. Today was Valentine's Day.
Naturally, Derek wouldn't pay attention to this kind of festival. He was very satisfied with Damian as Damian sent him a message this morning to remind him.
As a qualified assistant, Damian felt it necessary to provide useful information when his boss was pursuing someone.
"Mom, there are a lot of people there.” Easton's voice made them stop woolgathering.
In front of them was a park. A platform was set up on the spacious lawn. A banner was pulled up on the platform. There were many people over there.
A handsome man from F Country said something on stage with a microphone. The scene was very lively.
"Is this an event?" Nora asked.
Derek picked up Easton and said, "Let's go there. We'll see when we get there.”
It was rare to see local activities while traveling abroad, and Nora was also interested in it.
They walked over. The little guy was not a boy who wanted to stand behind. He blinked his big eyes and kept speaking sugared words.
He called every man he saw the handsome brother and every woman he met the beautiful sister. Every man and woman liked this little guy and found the little guy cute. So, they all let the little guy stand in the front.
Nora chuckled and rubbed her son's little head.
Nora, Derek, and Easton all looked very beautiful and handsome. They attracted a lot of people's attention. What the others found more surprising was that they were all dark-eyed and dark-haired. The others thought that they came from H Country. This made the others feel more interested in them.
At the same time, the host on stage also noticed them.
The handsome host's eyes lit up and he immediately jumped down, "You two can take part in our activities. If you lose, you will get the consolation prize. If you win first place, you can also get a special award."
The host personally came down to invite them, and the onlookers immediately cheered them up and encouraged them to go on stage.
Nora didn't understand and could only look at Derek.
Derek's eyes sparkled and his lips were curved. Before he could say anything, little Easton in his arms looked excited, "Mom, he asked you and dad to go up and play games."
Huh?
Nora was stunned. How could she play any game?
But Easton obviously wanted to watch them play games. He broke free from Derek's arms and pulled them to the stage.
With a smile on his lips, Derek let Easton pull him and he went up to the stage. Nora was in a bit of a dilemma. She was forced to play games by her son.
"Come on, mom." The little guy lay on the platform and shouted with his fists clenched
Nora smiled awkwardly, not knowing what to do.
Suddenly, she felt that something was wrapped around her waist. Derek put his arm around Nora's waist and said, "Don't worry. I'm here."
She pursed her lips and moved awkwardly, trying to make him let go of her.
Derek exerted more strength, "Don't move. We're Easton's parents. Are you sure you want to reject me like this in front of him?"
Nora froze, frowned and retorted, "Easton knows."
Although her son was young, she knew very well that Easton was different from other children of the same age, and he was very smart. She did not believe that her son was not clear about the real relationship between her and Derek.
"He does know, but knowing doesn't mean he wants to see the truth. Easton is very sensitive. No child doesn't want his parents to be together.”
She gritted her teeth but could not refute.
Derek squinted, pulled Nora to the stage, and changed the subject, "Let's think about what to do now."
Nora you was expressionless, "It's just a game.”
"But... Our son seems to really want us to win? Do you want to see him disappointed?" Derek asked lightly.
She took a deep breath and glared at him angrily. She wanted to say that he shall not treat her as an idiot as she could tell that he used her son as an excuse every time.
But every time, she had no choice but to acccpet.
At this moment, little Easton, who was completely unaware of what was going on, was still shouting as loud as he could with a smug look on his face. It was as if he was absolutely sure that the Nora and Derek would win the championship.
Nora twitched the corner of her lips. What could she do? She could only smile at Easton and nod. "Don’t worry, the rules of this game are very simple. Male is the main force and female is his assistant.” The smile at the corner of Derek's mouth was ambiguous.
In fact, if she was a little more sensitive when she saw the little girl carrying a basket of roses on the bridge, she could tell that today was Valentine's Day in France.
This event was held today, and it was naturally related to the festival. So, there were a row of male and female partners on the stage, every two of them boyfriend and girlfriend or husband and wife. The host said the rules of the game. The game had three rounds. The couple who could hang on till the end would be the champion. But if a couple was eliminated halfway, they could still get a small prize. After all, the most important thing was to participate.
The first round began.
Before Nora could react, she spun around and was picked up by Derek. She was shocked, "What are you doing?"
Derek looked innocent, “In the first round, the man picks up the woman and does the deep squat. There is no time limit and it won't stop until half the team is eliminated.”
What the hell was this game?
She couldn't help but look to the side. Sure enough, the other teams did the same.
Even if Derek had told her about what happened before she lost her memory, she had never had such close and intimate contact with him. The hot palms which were of great strength on her waist and legs made her uncomfortable.
Nora bit her lip and closed her eyes. "What eyes do not see is regarded as clean.” She tried her best to stop thinking about anything.
But it was easy to say. When she closed her eyes, her perception became sharper. She could clearly hear Derek's steady breathing above her head.
