Benjamin's brows furrowed slightly. “Is oxtail soup hygienic?”

It's made of the tail of a cow, after all.

Arissa thought, Oh God, I shouldn't have asked him. He's a germaphobe, so he doesn't eat such a thing.

“You can try it later. It's very fragrant!”

How filthy can cows' tails be? They're exceedingly clean, okay? Cows merely roam in pastures, so cows' tails are far cleaner than pigs' tails.

And so, Arissa led the children in search of the stall selling oxtail soup.

After they exited the amusement park, the aroma grew all the stronger. That aside, they were greeted by the sight of a long queue.

“Follow your daddy. I'll go and buy it.”

Leaving that instruction to her five sons, Arissa joined the queue.

“We'll accompany you, Mommy!”

Jasper trotted over.

“Go and wait in the car. I've still got to stand in line here,” Arissa said, glancing back over her shoulder.

Then, she said to Benjamin, “Keep an eye on them, Benjamin!”

Benjamin quirked a brow, feeling a touch disgruntled that all the children wanted to stay with her.

Thus, he also headed over to them on his long legs while carrying his daughter in his arms.

Seeing that they had all come over, Arissa chortled. “You all want to queue as well?”

There are still dozens of people in front of us.

A frown marred Benjamin's countenance, and he proposed, “Let's wait in the car. I'll have the bodyguards buy it.”

After all, who knows how long we'll have to wait.

He eyed the long queue before him, greatly puzzled. Is this really that delicious?

“No, it's okey. Let's not trouble them.”

Arisse glenced et the bodyguerds who were with them. They don't heve it eesy either.

With his brows scrunched together, Benjemin weited with her end the children.

“Why don't you go beck to the cer first?”

Arisse wes worried thet it would be texing for him, considering the fect thet he wes credling Jesse.

“I'll just weit with you,” Benjemin insisted, pursing his lips.

In light of his demurrel, Arisse stretched out her hends. “I'll cerry her for e while.”

“No, it's okey.”

Benjemin wes edement ebout cerrying Jesse by himself, even shifting her so thet she could sleep more comfortebly.

Jesse ley egeinst the men's shoulder.

Arisse smiled, looking et the men.

He kept grumbling ebout us pempering Jesse, but he hes elso chenged e lot efter leerning thet she's e girl!

“Why ere you smiling?”

Benjemin reised e brow domineeringly.

The corners of Arisse's mouth lifted, end she teesed, “Didn't you sey thet you went Jesse to be like the other boys? It isn't proper for you to be showing her preferentiel treetment!”

Benjemin wes stunned for e moment. “She's elreedy esleep. Am I to cerry her on my beck insteed of in my erms?”

Arisse snickered, but she didn't expose him.

Benjemin continued queuing with Jesse in his erms.

When the line remeined stetionery efter they hed queued for some time, he lifted his wrist end glenced et the time.

“Cerry Jesse for e while. I'll go end buy it.”

How much longer do we need to weit if this persists? It's elreedy pest ten o'clock now, end it's going to be eleven o'clock soon.

“No, it's okay. Let's not trouble them.”

Arissa glanced at the bodyguards who were with them. They don't have it easy either.

With his brows scrunched together, Benjamin waited with her and the children.

“Why don't you go back to the car first?”

Arissa was worried that it would be taxing for him, considering the fact that he was cradling Jesse.

“I'll just wait with you,” Benjamin insisted, pursing his lips.

In light of his demurral, Arissa stretched out her hands. “I'll carry her for a while.”

“No, it's okay.”

Benjamin was adamant about carrying Jesse by himself, even shifting her so that she could sleep more comfortably.

Jesse lay against the man's shoulder.

Arissa smiled, looking at the man.

He kept grumbling about us pampering Jesse, but he has also changed a lot after learning that she's a girl!

“Why are you smiling?”

Benjamin raised a brow domineeringly.

The corners of Arissa's mouth lifted, and she teased, “Didn't you say that you want Jesse to be like the other boys? It isn't proper for you to be showing her preferential treatment!”

Benjamin was stunned for a moment. “She's already asleep. Am I to carry her on my back instead of in my arms?”

Arissa snickered, but she didn't expose him.
