The game began, and Lu Youheng's displeasure was swept away as he bolted with all his might.
He was the first to reach the pile of balloons, grabbed a green one, and hurried back.
The balloon was delivered to Lu Lingxiao and Ye Xi, but neither of them reached out to take it.
Lu Youheng stamped his feet in urgency on the spot, as he had been the first to arrive, but the other children's parents had already managed to burst their balloons first, while Ye Xi and Lu Lingxiao hadn't moved at all.
Lu Youheng couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "What are you two looking at, hug it."
Lu Lingxiao cast a glance at Lu Youheng and reached out to grasp Ye Xi's wrist, then pulled her towards himself and lightly wrapped his arms around her waist.
At the sudden close contact, Ye Xi instinctively stepped back.
But when she saw Lu Youheng's anxious eyes, her movements froze.
The next second, Lu Lingxiao took the balloon and placed it between the two of them.
