Tiantian’s jaw dropped in disbelief. Picking up the tablet from the blanket and pointing at the screen, which was currently playing “The World of Dinosaurs”, she then said in puzzlement, “But, look! Dinosaurs are still acting in dramas!”
The naive little girl had obviously mistaken the dinosaurs for actors of a television series.
Li Yanmo, already clad in his pajamas, walked over and took the tablet from her, turning it off. “This isn’t real. It’s all CGI.”
Looking at her crestfallen expression, he couldn’t help but ruffle her hair. “Did you really think that your teacher was going to bring you to see real dinosaurs?”
“I really did think so…” Tiantian shrugged and sighed. She was looking forward to playing with the dinosaurs in close proximity!
Li Yanmo’s lips trembled from having to hold in his laughter. “It’s all right, even if they aren’t real.”
“Okay then.”
The theme of this excursion was actually “Remember the Dinosaurs, Care for Every Animal”, but Ning Tiantian thought that was a little too long, so she shortened it to “Care for Dinosaurs”.
For this excursion, the school bus would be bringing them directly to the suburban park, so Li Yanmo couldn’t tag along with the school bus this time around. It was a wonder that Tiantian didn’t kick up a big fuss. It was also the first time in a year that he hadn’t been late for school.
“Oh, you’re here early. Didn’t you have to drop off your fiancée at school?”
Li Yanmo had barely sat down at his own seat before Su Yi came over with an annoyingly gossipy expression on his face.
“Excursion,” Li Yanmo replied curtly.
“Oh, I see.” Su Yi stroked his chin and grinned at Li Yanmo. “By the way, don’t forget about the amusement park this weekend!”
“We’ll see.”
Li Yanmo’s face was already showing signs of impatience. Before Su Yi could say anything else, he walked over to the podium with his textbook and prepared to recite a passage for the class.
As for Ning Tiantian, she had already reached the suburban park along with her school mates. As soon as they disembarked from the school bus and got a whiff of the fresh air, these preschool kids tore free and went on a rampage. After all, it wasn’t often that they got to go on an excursion.
It was 9:00. Plus, by the time they arrived, they would have stayed there for only about two hours before leaving.
“You guys can go on the slide or play on the grass, but don’t stray too far. Make sure you inform me if something happens, okay?” Miss Mi said in all seriousness.
“Got it!” The children answered.
Ning Tiantian and Cookie also went on the slide but lost interest very quickly. After finishing their bento, the two of them sat on the grass as they played with the toy building blocks that Cookie had brought along. Just as they had completed a castle, Miss Mi came over and told everyone to board the bus and to get ready to go to the Dinosaur Museum.
As Ning Tiantian knew that the dinosaurs they would be seeing were not real, she was not very enthusiastic. Even so, she was still stunned when she entered the museum.
“The dinosaurs are huge!” Tiantian and the rest of the children were dumbstruck at the sight of the dinosaurs.
Inside the hall, there was an array of dinosaur fossils in all shapes and sizes, and in various forms and poses. Even a skeletal rack was enough to intimidate and inspire awe.
There were also many animatronic dinosaurs outside, which were very realistic-looking, especially the Tyrannosaurus with a tongue hanging out from its big mouth.
“Cookie, if these dinosaurs were real, your skinny body wouldn’t even qualify as a snack!” said Ning Tiantian, as she touched the Tyrannosaurus’ mouth excitedly.
“I could say the same about you!”
They held hands, rejoicing that the dinosaurs had long become extinct. Otherwise, the two of them combined would still not suffice as a snack for the dinosaurs!
