Listening to the man's joyful laughter, Shen Qing's eyes were filled with anger, and he cursed in a low voice, "You are disrespectful to the elderly."

Old! Disrespectful...

Gu Ting's eyes twitched violently. Is he that old?

"Let go." Shen Qing said coldly.

"Yeah." Gu Ting let go of his hand, Shen Qing quickly stood up, and Gu Ting also sat up quickly. The child was fierce and it was easy to be attacked if he lay down.

Shen Qing glared at him and said nothing.

Gu Ting smiled and took out a precious jujube seed from his pocket. "I accidentally dropped it just now and got you hurt."

Shen Qing glanced at it, sat on the stool, and didn't answer.

Gu Ting touched his nose and took out two more chocolates from his pocket. "That's all."

The girl lowered her head to play with her phone and ignored him.

Gu Ting was stunned for a moment, then squatted down, raised his head and looked at the girl, and said seriously: "Then touch me."

As he spoke, Gu Ting stood up and lifted up a corner of his shirt, revealing a bit of white skin on his waist.

Shen Qing paused while scrolling through the phone. What does it mean to touch?

"roll."

"Any number of times."

"Harrassment?" Shen Qing squinted at him.

Gu Ting shook his head solemnly, "Apologize."

"Oh." Shen Qing put down the phone, slowly stood up, raised his leg and kicked Gu Ting's waist.

Gu Ting narrowed his eyes slightly, covered them with his hands, and then said pitifully, "You said you would touch it."

"Almost." Shen Qing curled his lips and punched Gu Ting in the chest seemingly casually.

Gu Ting groaned, rubbed his chest, and glanced at Shen Qing. The kid was really merciless.

"Are we still going to watch the fireworks?" Gu Ting brought the subject back.

"roll."

"It's okay, I brought smaller ones." Gu Ting took out three thin, short firework sticks from his windbreaker pocket. One of them was broken and couldn't be used.

“…” Shen Qing looked at Gu Ting as if he was mentally retarded.

"Let's go to the balcony." Gu Ting took Shen Qing's hand and walked over.

Shen Qing was stunned for a moment, lowered his eyes, and said nothing.

When they reached the balcony, Gu Ting lit one first, and the firework sticks quickly ignited, "You come and hold it."

After looking at the firework stick for a second, Shen Qing slowly took it. Gu Ting smiled, quickly took out another one, and lit it with the fire in Shen Qing's hand.

"Take this too."

"Oh." Shen Qing took it from Gu Ting's hand.

Gu Ting took out his cell phone and quickly took a picture of the girl.

Hearing the click, Shen Qing subconsciously raised his head, and there was another click.

"You should go back to sleep." Shen Qing looked coldly at the man holding the mobile phone. The firework stick in his hand had gone out.

"I'm not sleepy." Gu Ting took the burnt thin strips from her hand and held the phone at a 45-degree angle. The girl in the camera lowered her head beside him.

"Qingqing." Gu Ting called out gently, but no one paid any attention.

"Chen Qing." He called again, but the girl still lowered her head and ignored him.

Gu Ting smiled, and called out helplessly and lovingly for the third time, "Chen Qing."

Shen Qing was playing Snake and raised his head impatiently, "What are you doing?"

Click.

Gu Ting quickly pressed the shutter button and captured the profiles of the two people on his mobile phone.

The boy's smile is gentle and doting, while the girl's facial features and expression are a little blurry. If you look closely, you can see impatience, but at first glance, it seems quite affectionate.

"Boring." Shen Qing glanced at the photo and turned into the house.

Gu Ting looked at the photo carefully, and the corners of his mouth curled up more and more.

"Go away." Shen Qing opened the door and leaned against it lazily, waiting for Gu Tingyuanrun to go out.

"Oh." Gu Ting smiled and went out obediently this time.

**

The next day, when Shen Qing opened his eyes, the sun was already high in the sky.

She opened her phone and saw that it was ten o'clock. Both Gu Ting and Lu Xuanyou sent her messages. Shen Qing turned off her phone and did not reply to any of them.

When I got up from the bed, I couldn't help but take another look at the copper incense burner in the room. The incense inside had burned out, but there was still a barely perceptible fragrance left.

After Shen Qing changed her clothes and washed up, she received a call from Lu Xuanyou.

"Let's have lunch together?"

"I don't want to eat." Shen Qing stretched and prepared to go out with the plate containing the copper stove in one hand.

"I specially ordered Chinese cuisine." Lu Xuanyou continued.

Shen Qing paused, “Let’s talk about it after we finish sweeping the tomb.”

"good."

Shen Qing hung up the phone, opened the door and walked out, knocking on Gu Ting's door opposite.
