Toph was troubled. He hadn't expected this project to be so complicated. All he wanted was to surprise Arya.

"There are a few things I need to tell you," Zuko said in his usual serious tone, getting straight to business. He pulled

up the theme park on his computer's map, urging Toph to look.

"Take a look at this... Geographically, this theme park is right at the intersection of the new and old town. It doesn't

have a strategic location advantage.

"Nowadays, transportation is well-developed, so people who want to go to theme parks tend to choose larger ones

outside the city. And if they prefer staying in the city, there are a couple of options with convenient transportation

that can meet their needs."

Zuko couldn't stop talking, and Toph was struggling to stay awake.

Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, Zuko reached his conclusion. "So, I don't think this project is profitable.

Do you understand?"

Toph jumped up, suddenly more alert. "Oh... Huh?"

Toph asked, "Bro, must it be profitable?"

Zuko frowned. "Do you think we're running a charity here? We wouldn't need to invest in a project like this if it were

for charity. And if you're concerned about boosting the Hamerton Group's social status, that's unnecessary. We're

already—"

"Can't you just support me, brother? Can't you give it to me as a gift?" Toph pleaded.

Zuko's irritation was evident. "That's not how it works."

Toph felt a wave of frustration but also a newfound determination. He had worked tirelessly to come up with a

theme park renovation proposal overnight despite his lack of business interest. What made it worse was his love-

stricken heart.

Seeing Toph's effort, Zuko softened.

"You've got some potential, Toph." Zuko smiled. "I guess I'll have to help you with this renovation." -

The project was submitted, and according to Toph's plan, it would be a vintage theme park with basic entertainment

amenities. The Ferris wheel and merry-go-round would be the iconic attractions. The unique cafes would also

remain, making them perfect spots for influencers to create content.

As Toph and Arya's serial comic was reaching its end, a film company had already invested in the animation. It

could serve as the filming location if the renovation was completed in time. And there, Toph planned to confess his

love to Arya.

He felt a rush of excitement as if that day were just around the corner.

After school, Persephone's nanny and bodyguards arrived to pick her up. However, the little girl wasn't ready to go

home just yet. With her parents' permission, she directed the driver to take her to the theme park she had visited

recently.

She liked the place for its tranquility and lack of crowds. Last time, she had only ridden the merry-go- round—she

hadn't tried the bumper cars.

Her nanny and bodyguards remained vigilant as they accompanied her to the park.

To her surprise, she encountered the same mysterious man from her previous visit. At first, she didn't recognize

him, but his familiar eyes gave him away. He held a vanilla ice cream in his hand.

"What a coincidence. We meet again!" the man greeted her kindly.

The bodyguards moved to block him from approaching too closely. The man remained calm and collected despite

the confrontation, radiating an unexpected sense of composure.

"I remembered that you liked this flavor," he told her, holding up his ice cream.

"You like it too?" Persephone tilted her head.

"Hmm," he mused, appearing lost in thought. "Someone else liked it in the past." Persephone was puzzled and

couldn't decipher his words.

Though her bodyguards were cautious, Persephone had a gut feeling that this man wasn't a threat.

"Little princess, I accidentally ruined your ice cream last time. Can I buy you a new one today?" he asked.

Soon, one of his companions quickly returned with an ice cream, passing it to her nanny before it reached

Persephone's hand.

The man maintained his friendly demeanor, raising his ice cream cone in a gesture akin to toasting an old friend.

Persephone mimicked his action, and they both smiled.

"Sephy," her nanny intervened, taking her hand. "It's time to go home."

"Wait." Persephone had an idea, "I want to talk to that man. Can I?"

The man chuckled, addressing her bodyguards, "We can chat like this. No need to get them into trouble."

"Okay."

But before she could speak, the man crouched down to her level and asked, "What kind of theme park would you

like to see?"

Persephone looked around and said, "I want cotton candy everywhere!"

This amused the man.

She added, "By the way, what's your name?"

A complex emotion flickered in the man's deep eyes. "My last name is Quimby."

"Which Quimby?" she asked.

The man's voice carried a hidden smile as he replied, "Little girl, didn't your grandparents teach you that it's

impolite to address your elders by their last name?"
