The dining rooms in the theme park were all kinds of strange shapes. The Egyptian area was a small pyramid, the Elven area was a tree house, and the Gold Rush Town was in the English style of the last century … In this English retro house, the two sat opposite each other.
"If you can't count them, then you can't count them." Xu Qing pulled her hand to read her palm.
To help such a dangerous person integrate into society, if he couldn't reform her into a wife, he would be the sinner of Jiangcheng City. He had to marry her and suppress her. At worst, he could just do it in the underworld …
It didn't seem impossible.
Xu Qing studied Jiang He's small hand and suddenly realized a terrible fact. In the future, his status in the family would not be guaranteed.
"Has it become a lot better?" Jiang He looked at her other hand. Every day at home, she held the mouse and typed on the keyboard. It was a completely different life from before, and she often applied fragrant hand cream.
Looking at the back of her hand, her ten fingers were sharp, white, and soft. However, after turning it over, the pads were still a little hard. The calluses on the second knuckle and the root had not disappeared, and they needed to be soaked in hot water for a few more months.
Xu Qing lowered his head and kissed her fingertips. The soft and wet touch made Jiang He move her fingers subconsciously. Seeing Xu Qing straighten up, she couldn't help but turn her head to look elsewhere.
"After dinner, let's go to the Ferris wheel."
Hearing Xu Qing's words, Jiang He turned her head back and asked in confusion, "What is the Ferris wheel?"
"That's the biggest wheel of fortune."
"You play by yourself."
"Let's go together. It's very slow, so it won't be uncomfortable. It's just a little high, and you're not afraid of heights."
Xu Qing rubbed her fingertips and turned to look out the window. He couldn't see the Ferris wheel on the other side from here.
After dinner, when they arrived at the foot of the Ferris wheel, Jiang He believed his words. It was indeed very slow. One small house after another hung on the big wheel. As the wheel rotated, it slowly rose and then slowly fell.
It was so slow that people didn't need to stop when they went up. They just needed to walk over and sit down when the empty house turned to the bottom.
There were seats for four people inside. They sat face to face, and the two of them didn't feel crowded at all. Jiang He looked out of the window with interest.
As they rose higher and higher, she found that Xu Qing was a little nervous.
"Are you afraid?"
"I'm not afraid."
Jiang He didn't expose him. He leaned against the window and looked at the little people below.
The highest point of the Ferris wheel was more than a hundred meters. When it rose to a few dozen meters, it was possible to have a panoramic view of the scenery in the distance. One could even faintly see the Lan River in the distance.
"This is more fun than the merry-go-round." Jiang He came to a conclusion. Listening to the creaking above him, he thought for a moment and said, "We won't suddenly fall down, right?"
"Jinx …"
Xu Qing gazed into the distance, suppressing the dizziness in his heart. He was already panicking a little before reaching the highest point of more than a hundred meters.
"You're not afraid at all?" Xu Qing couldn't help but ask.
"What's there to be afraid of? It's not like I'm tied to a chair." Jiang He suddenly stood up. The cabin moved slightly, and Xu Qing subconsciously held the window next to him.
She sat on the side of Xu Qing, slightly raised her eyebrows and stared at him, "You're very afraid."
"A little bit."
"Worried that it will fall down?"
"No." Xu Qing shook his head, "It won't fall. It's just too high. It's human instinct."
After a pause, he said, "Don't run around, and it won't fall down."
Jiang He was afraid that her life and death were not under her control. In a place like the Ferris wheel, if she jumped out and held the railing, or jumped to the top of the next cabin, it shouldn't be a problem for her.
"Oh."
Jiang He responded and looked out of the window. Their cabin slowly reached the highest point. Jiang He wore a peaked cap and leaned against the window, marveling at how high it was.
Xu Qing withdrew his gaze and took out his mobile phone to aim at Jiang He. Wearing a peaked cap, it was a pity not to take a picture.
"Isn't it fun?"
"It'll be more fun if it doesn't cost money."
"What are you thinking? They built the project with tens of millions of yuan. Do you think they give it to you every day for nothing?"
"Tens of millions?" Jiang He was stunned by the number. For a moment, she didn't realize how big a number it was.
One hundred thousand yuan was already an astronomical number for her. It would take her several years to earn that amount even if she didn't eat or drink.
"Well, these people spend a lot of money to build something fun, and then we spend money to play. They make money to build something bigger and better — in theory, it's a relationship like this. They take it from the people and use it for the people."
Xu Qing looked out of the window. The tourists who were screaming in other projects seemed a little low at this time. Although the general amusement equipment was high, most of them were dozens of meters high. The Ferris wheel was the largest project in the park.
"I'm just saying. How can it fall … fall from the sky …" Jiang He couldn't go on.
In the beginning, Xu Qing provided for her to eat and live. Wasn't it like a pie falling from the sky?
Oh, it was a trap.
Jiang He used her finger to poke Xu Qing's palm, which was placed on the seat.
"What are you doing?"
"Nothing."
The Ferris wheel turned slowly and returned to the starting point. Xu Qing looked at Jiang He's unsatisfied expression and didn't move.
"Do you still want to sit?" Jiang He asked.
"Sit."
"Aren't you scared?"
"I got used to it just now." Xu Qing turned his face away.
The cockpit turned away from the ground. The second round had already begun to repeat the previous trajectory. Jiang He looked at Xu Qing and blinked. She picked up his hand and held it.
"What?" Xu Qing turned his head.
"Did I ask you when you touched my hand?" Jiang He pinched his fingers and spread them open. She put her palm on it and compared it. Xu Qing's hand was much bigger and thicker than hers.
Her palm seemed to have always been so warm. Jiang He pressed it hard. She suddenly remembered that when Xu Qing held her foot, her palm felt hot. He wrapped her entire foot in his palm.
She couldn't help but purse her lips. She raised her eyes and peeked at Xu Qing. Xu Qing was leaning against the window and looking outside. He just moved his fingers and played with her hand.
This pervert.
Xu Qing's fingers moved. Suddenly, he felt a little warmth on his finger. He turned his head and looked. Jiang He was looking up.
"You kissed my finger?"
"I just did what you did." Jiang He put his hat back on as if nothing had happened.
She didn't know how many meanings there were in kissing, but she knew that this behavior was a strong love. She felt it from Xu Qing when they were eating.
"You are … a bit perverted." Xu Qing frowned.
？？
Why did this person put the blame on me?
"Men and women are different. You can put your arms around my neck and kiss me. But touching my finger with your hand is very … infatuated. Do you know that?"
"…"
Jiang He didn't put her arms around Xu Qing's neck. She just pressed his arm against the window. She looked out of the window. It was already high in the sky. No one could see them. She lowered her head and poked Xu Qing with the brim of her cap.
Taking off the cap and throwing it aside, Jiang He lowered her head again and kissed his lips.
After kissing Xu Qing, she separated. She wiped her mouth and leaned on Xu Qing's shoulder. She whispered in his ear.
"What do you mean infatuated … what?"
"It means perverted."
"It doesn't sound like a good word."
"Well, heroine is a good word."
Xu Qing closed his eyes and thought about it for a moment. "In fact, I vaguely feel that I have a duty, which is to be a tour guide. I will take you, an old lady from a thousand years ago, to experience all kinds of scenery that you have never seen before, to witness all kinds of beauty in life … to feel this wonderful journey. This is a great responsibility from heaven."
"Aren't you already doing it?" Jiang He looked out of the window into the distance. Looking out from here, she could see everything below. This was the scenery at high altitude.
"Well … you can say that. A tour guide for a small company."
In addition to her job, she also had all kinds of selfishness to guide goods.
A great responsibility from heaven fell on the wrong person.
"Thank you."
"Why are you thanking me?"
"I'm living a good life now." Jiang He pinched Xu Qing's palm and rubbed his fingertips.
"Didn't you say it yesterday? Both of us are good-for-nothings. "Xu Qing's voice had a hint of laughter.
Jiang He didn't say anything. She suddenly felt that it was okay to let Xu Qing touch her feet. Anyway, they were going to get married in the future. As long as he didn't do anything strange to her shoes, it would be fine.
They sat on the Ferris wheel until the afternoon. When the sun was setting, the two of them went to the deposit office to retrieve the big white bear. They walked out of the gate together, attracting a few more glances from the passersby.
"I have three bears now."
"How can there be three?"
"This one, Baobao, and the one that was beaten several times."
"Oh, I can wear a bear mask and accompany you in your room as the fourth bear." Xu Qing helped her adjust her hat and waited for the bus at the bus stop.
"No need."
Jiang He didn't even look at him. She used her hand to play with the big bear's ears.
When they returned home, seeing that Jiang He was still happy, Xu Qing couldn't bear to take out his textbooks. He turned on his computer to organize the photos he took during this trip.
…
The next day was the 8th of May. Jiang He went on a trip. He wandered around Jiangcheng and still didn't study.
9th of May. Lazy.
10th of May. The textbooks that had been left at home for a few days were finally taken out and placed in front of Jiang He.
"This is my gift to you." Xu Qing patted the stack of books.
Not only the textbooks, but also the exercise books. The thirty-two official textbooks closely followed the contents of the Chinese and Mathematics books.
"Isn't this the kind that Xiaoyan read?"
Jiang He took out a book and looked at it. It was similar in size and style.
"Yes, you have to study. That way, you don't have to lower your head and count your fingers while you buy groceries."
Hearing Xu Qing's words, Jiang He took the Mathematics book and sat on the sofa next to him. He crossed his legs and lowered his head. He put the book on his lap and opened it.
"There's draft paper too. There are a lot of questions to solve." Xu Qing reminded him. He pushed the draft paper and pen to him. "Feel the joy of my school days."
"Your smile is a little weird." Jiang He had a bad feeling.
"It's not weird at all. Ask me if you don't understand." Xu Qing pointed at the exercise books again. "The goal is to finish them without any mistakes."
After a pause, he stood up and said, "I've torn the answers on the last few pages. Don't Baidu. You have to rely on yourself."
He joked that Teacher Xu was really going to be a teacher now.
Xu Qing picked up his long sword and went to an open space to practice. He left the sofa and the table to Jiang He. The two of them did their own things.
If the ten-year-old Jiang He came over when he was a teenager, the situation would be reversed. Xu Qing would be doing his homework on the table, and Jiang He would be practicing martial arts with his sword. At that age, if he wanted to keep Jiang He, he wouldn't even be able to convince his parents.
It was a little regretful.
Xu Qing thought about that scene and felt that it was very loving. There were no photos, so she didn't know what Jiang He looked like when she was young. Would she be cute, or would she be cool like now when she didn't speak, wearing straw sandals that were a few sizes too small and climbing up trees like a monkey?
In the afternoon, he received a call from Qin Hao, complaining that he had led the old man astray. Now, Qin Maocai didn't even go out for a walk with Xiongba. Every day, he used pliers to make iron rings and chainmail.
He also wanted to make a super big one because the old man had a big skeleton and a wide body.
"Actually, the blame is on you."
"What the hell is on me?" Qin Hao was so angry that his nose almost became crooked.
"Look, the old man used to walk the dog and walk around the neighborhood. How nice it was, right? Later, you taught my dad to play the small broken stand … You taught him that, right? Look, my dad learned it and then taught it to your dad. Your dad learned it and often looked at my homepage. When he saw my videos, he wanted to make one himself — "
Xu Qing summarized the matter, "Isn't it because you're the scapegoat?"
"…"
Qin Hao was speechless.
That was true. The cause of everything was when he taught Xu Wenbin to play the small broken stand during the New Year.
"The heavens are full of reincarnation. Who will the heavens spare …"
"Don't be sarcastic. What should we do?" Qin Hao interrupted angrily.
"What should we do?"
"My dad fiddles with that thing every day."
"What's wrong with that? Let him play. Walking the dog is also fun. It's not easy for the old man to find something he likes to do. Why do you want to interfere?"
"No …" Qin Hao smacked his lips. For a moment, he didn't know how to refute.
That was true. The old man had nothing to do every day. It was better than going out for a walk with that big thermos. It was getting hotter and hotter every day. It was comfortable staying at home with the fan.
"I also like to fiddle with it. It's not a big deal."
Xu Qing spun the sword leisurely. After thinking about it, he moved his phone further away and faced the microphone in front of him.
Clang!
The sound of the sword vibrating could be heard.
"Did you hear that?" Xu Qing was proud. He could finally swing the sword occasionally.
As long as the force reached the tip of the sword and rubbed against the air, it would sound like a rope or iron wire being swung around. The clang made people feel comfortable all over.
"What is that?" Qin Hao was a little puzzled.
"I'm practicing the sword!"
"Despicable?"
Qin Hao snorted. "You're despicable enough. I'm hanging up!"
Xu Qing threw his phone aside and continued practicing.
He didn't have any vigilance at all.
He even wanted to be his fated enemy. Heh.
When he mastered the godly technique, he would put on a blindfold, tight-fitting clothes, and a cloak. This would be the urban version of the Black and White Hero, walking the streets and alleys to fight against evil.
Fantasizing about something that wouldn't happen, Xu Qing practiced even more energetically.
When the time came, he would wear a chainmail and stand together with Qin Maocai for a photo. Two generals …
A man's happiness was so simple.
"Jiang He! Look! "
"Hmm?" Jiang He, who was frowning and struggling with the math problems, raised his head.
Xu Qing stabbed once. There was no sound.
He stabbed again.
He adjusted and stabbed again.
Clang!
The third time he stabbed the sword.
"Awesome, right?"
"Oh, so awesome."
Jiang He let out a cold voice.
After a pause, she pointed at the book and said, "Why is this person pouring water into the pool at the same time?"
She really wanted to stab this idiot to death.
