Qin Zhao was sitting in the main room holding the little fish cub, while Ah Qi was counting the thank-you gifts sent by Gu Heng. Seeing Jing Li enter the room, Qin Zhao glanced at him and frowned: "What's wrong?"
"Ah?" Jing Li looked a little dazed. When he heard Qin Zhao calling him, he belatedly raised his head.
Qin Zhao put the little fish cub down, walked towards him, and took his hand: "You look so bad."
"...Did Gu Heng say anything to you?"
Qin Zhao was so smart and knew Jing Li so well that he could tell at a glance that something was wrong with him.
Jing Li suddenly felt a little sad. He lowered his eyes and shook his head: "Nothing."
"Little Fish..."
"It's really nothing." Jing Li interrupted, "I... I'm just a little tired. I'm going back to the house to rest first."
He gently broke free from Qin Zhao's hand, turned around and walked out of the main room, heading towards the backyard.
"gentlemen……"
Ah Qi stopped moving, and even Xiao Yuzi looked at the direction where Jing Li left in confusion, pulling Qin Zhao's sleeve and saying, "Coquettish... coquettish..."
"Well, something is not right." Qin Zhao nodded.
Who else is looking for his young husband?
.
When Qin Zhao returned to the house, no one was inside.
He searched inside and out and finally found the bright red shadow in the transparent fish tank on the table.
Most of the little koi's body was buried in the dense water plants and pebbles, leaving only a small translucent tail swaying slightly at the bottom of the water. It was really hard to see if you didn't look carefully.
Qin Zhao shook his head.
here we go again.
This guy hides himself in the water every time he is unhappy.
Qin Zhao sat down at the table and knocked on the wall of the fish tank: "Your son, who is less than one year old, doesn't hide in the water anymore."
The koi's small body trembled, and it swam inside with its tail wagging, hiding itself better.
Qin Zhao couldn't help but chuckled softly, "Don't worry, Yuzai is still playing with Ah Qi in the outer courtyard. He didn't see you looking so embarrassed."
Jing Li: “…”
"I'm not unhappy, I was sleeping in there." Jing Li sat in front of the dressing mirror. Qin Zhao helped him dry his hair and tied it up with a hairpin.
"Good, you're sleeping." Qin Zhao's slender fingertips ran through his hair and he asked softly, "Did you get enough sleep?"
Jing Li hummed, "It's okay."
Qin Zhao: "Would you like to go out with me?"
Jing Li blinked.
From mid-February, the weather in the capital began to warm up, and Qin Zhao's health gradually improved.
Not long ago, the doctor finally gave in and said that Qin Zhao could go out for a walk more often when the weather is good, which would be more helpful for conditioning his body.
Today is sunny, which is a good time to go out.
Jing Li said, "Then I'll go get Yuzai and bring him in to change clothes."
"No need." Qin Zhao helped Jing Li get his coat and said, "I want to go out alone with you."
Since the birth of the little fish, Jing Li and Qin Zhao rarely had the opportunity to go out alone like this. Qin Zhao did not shy away from it and openly took Jing Li's hand, and the two of them strolled slowly along the main street of the city.
The air in early spring is slightly cool, and the sunshine is warm but not too strong. It feels warm on the body and is extremely comfortable.
Jing Li hadn't been out shopping with Qin Zhao like this for a long time, and gradually put his worries behind him. The two of them ate and played, strolling down the street, carrying a lot of things in their hands.
There is a bookstore at the end of the street.
This bookstore is quite large, with a long queue in front of it. It is actually the busiest place on the entire street.
Qin Zhao walked over with Jing Li by the hand. Just then, they saw a man dressed as a shop owner come out and shout to the people in line, "The last copy of 'Dream Talk' has been sold out. Please go buy it from somewhere else."
