Fairytale Land was a themed restaurant, and every server would dress up as a character in the fairy tales.
The servers were either elves or angels, while the security guards were hunters or knights. At the same time, the female bartenders would be dressed as witches.
Every child that entered the place would change into a costume of a character they liked.
Venus changed into a mermaid princess outfit while Randy and Josh wore prince outfits.
Jombo, on the other hand, was dressed up as an old king while Thompson remained as the butler from a fairy tale.
When Jombo looked at himself in the mirror, he burst into laughter. "Wow… I really look like one."
"Mr. Giblo, you look noble, " Thompson sighed. Although Jombo was already at the age of ninety-six, he was still spirited and tall.
The three children cheered, "Mr. Jombo looks like a king!"
"If Mr. Jombo is a king, you're my princes and princess, " Jombo beamed before holding their hands. "Let's go and eat now."
"Yay, time to eat!" Josh yelled delightedly.
"Oh no, I can't walk!"
Mermaid princess Venus tried to move her fishtail, but she could barely walk, and she even nearly fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Randy the prince caught her in time.
"Hahaha!" Jombo laughed boisterously. "The cute little mermaid hasn't turned into a human yet, so she can't walk. Come, let Mr. Jombo carry you."
With that said, Jombo hunched over for her.
"Sir, let me instead."
"Mind your own business." Jombo shot him a look before he crouched down. "Venus, hop on."
Thompson dared not intervene anymore.
Clumsily, Venus climbed onto Jombo's back before wrapping her arms around his neck. "Mr. Jombo's the best!"
"Haha, you're all so light. I can even carry all three of you."
Feeling energetic, Jombo held onto Venus's short legs as he placed a hand on the wall to support himself as he stood up. However, just as he straightened his back, he heard a loud crack, and he stilled instantly.
"Mr. Giblo!" Thompson hurriedly held him. "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine! I'm fine, " he mumbled as sweat beaded on his forehead while he pressed his waist.
"Mr. Jombo, what's the matter?" Venus's face was ashen from fright as she anxiously asked, "Is Venus too fat?"
"No, no! It's nothing to do with you." Jombo tried to straighten his back, and despite the difficulty in doing so, he tried to keep things lighthearted. "It must be a witch casting a spell on Mr. Jombo!"
"Mr. Giblo, " mumbled Thompson anxiously. However, he dared not expose Jombo for his lies.
"Venus, come down now." Upon noticing what was going on, Randy swiftly tried to pull Venus down from Jombo's back.
"It's fine. I can carry her, " Jombo insisted. "She's just three. How can I not carry her? I was a skilled fighter when I was younger."
"You're all old now, but you're still trying to pretend as if you're strong."
A cold voice abruptly rang out.
When Randy raised his head to look, he could not help but furrow his brows as a look of wariness emerged in his eyes.
Zayn reached out to carry Venus down from Jombo's back. However, the hem of her mermaid tail skirt caught the button on his sleeve, and since he could not undo it, he had to hold her in midair.
"Let me down! Let me down!"
Venus was terrified looking at the ferocious man as she sobbed. As she dangled her short legs, struggling, it seemed as if she really was a mermaid when she swished her tail.
"Shush!" With one hand holding onto her, he helped Jombo up. "Are you all right? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
"I'm fine."
As he supported his back, Jombo looked up to see Zayn holding onto Venus like he was holding a chick.
At the same time, Venus was tearful as she pleaded, "Mr. Jombo, save me!"
His heart ached from looking at her watery eyes. Thus, he smacked Zayn's head immediately. "Brat, let my granddaughter down."
