Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress novel Chapter 328

328 We can do this all day

For someone of Zoren Pierson’s caliber, Penny had a few guesses about where he might take her. A fancy dinner seemed inevitable, but she was unsure about what they might do 

beforehand. Perhaps a date on a yacht or a visit to a museum? Maybe a round of golf or a simple city outing

Though Penny had never been on such a date before, she had her own ideas

All her guesses, however, were wrong

Standing in front of the wide gates of the biggest amusement park in Anteca, her mouth fell 

open

An amusement park?she thought, staring at Zoren incredulously. You chose an amusement park for our first date?(2

Is there something wrong with it?he asked, tilting his head. I have a few backup plans if this place isn’t to your liking.” 

No, it’s not that,” she laughed dryly, snapping her gaze back to the gates. I just didn’t expect you, Mr. Pierson, to take me to an amusement park on our first date. I was imagining something 

a bit fancier.” 

He chuckled. Do you prefer fancy?” 

I’d be lying if I said I don’t appreciate fancy things, but this choicePenny glanced up at the gates before a smile stretched across her face. Zoren Pierson, our date might actually break whatever records you’ve been keeping.” 

His lips curved into a grin as he watched her look back at him. He couldn’t see her, but he could sense her excitement mingling with her aura. It told him he made the right decision

Shall we go in?he asked, and she nodded. Shall we?” 

Oh, right, you couldn’t see me nodding,” she quipped. I said, sure

With squinted eyes, they both faced the amusement park and stepped inside, a strange anticipation bubbling in their hearts

Six years ago, the biggest amusement park in Anteca was built, offering all kinds of rides and attractions that both adults and children could enjoy. Despite its magical allure, the entrance fee was affordable, even for those at the bottom of the social ladder if they saved up a little

That’s why the park was so crowded, especially on a Sunday

Penny and Zoren quickly chose the nearest attraction: a target shooting booth

If you hit five balloons, you can win a prize from this shelfthe staff explained, motioning his hand to the shelf on the side, and Penny nodded enthusiastically. Good luck, miss.” 

Thank you!she exclaimed, taking the toy gun and watching the staff explain the same to Zoren

He can hit these targets, right?she wondered, eyeing the board full of small balloons. The board was so crowded that missing a shot seemed impossible. It felt like a bonus game where everyone could win, so Penny didn’t think Zoren would embarrass himself

With that, Penny and Zoren stood in position, arms outstretched, toy guns in hand

BANG! BANG! BANG

Five shots rang out from both Penny and Zoren. Each of Penny’s fake bullets popped a balloon, making her feel a surge of pride. Winning was no surprise, but it still gave her a sense of accomplishment

Meanwhile, while Penny was beaming, Zoren’s expression remained stiff

The staff, who had been watching Zoren closely, was surprised. Even a blind person could win this game 

it was designed as a treat from the management to the guests. Losing wasn’t supposed to be an option. And yet…. 

Youmissed all five?Penny blurted out, her smile replaced by shock. Wow.” 

Both Penny and the staff looked at Zoren with mixed emotions. They didn’t know whether to be amused by how bad he was or shocked by his terrible aim

Zoren shook his head. Probably the wind, he muttered, turning to the staff. I want to play another round.” 

UhThe staff was speechless and glanced at Penny for approval

Penny stared at Zoren. Seeing how determined he was to redeem his dignity, she nodded at the staff. As the staff handed Zoren another gun with five fake bullets, both Penny and the staff watched him with a mix of pity and hope

BANG! BANG

Penny and the staff held their breaths, searching the board for popped balloons

BANG

On the fifth shot, their breaths hitched

Zoren carefully placed the gun on the counter and hung his head low. He hadn’t heard balloons pop

any 

Penny and the staff looked at him, wideeyed

He missed all five again! How was that possible?!
