Qi Sheng also heard their voices and noticed her disappointment. He checked the tickets and said, "But there are still tickets available for today."
Upon hearing this, Gu Luoqi's eyes lit up again. "Then why don't we set off today?"
"Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and pack your things," Cheng Cheng said hurriedly.
He hung up the phone after saying that.
Despite their hasty preparations, the three managed to meet up at the high-speed rail station an hour later.
Gu Luoqi almost couldn't breathe. "I'm so tired... I'm exhausted."
Luckily she made it in time, otherwise she would have been furious.
Moreover, it had snowed a bit along the way, and she felt that it would be very cold at her destination as well, but luckily she was dressed warmly enough.
"Let's go, check tickets." After a period of chaos, they finally boarded the high-speed train.
Because Gu Luoqi bought the tickets, Qi Sheng sat next to her, while Cheng Cheng was some distance away from them.
She first told Li Mingya that they were already on their way.
Li Mingya probably didn't expect them to act so quickly.
They planned to wait until they were settled in the hotel before Li Mingya would come and meet them, and then take them around the area.
After arriving at the hotel, Gu Luoxi naturally slept in the same room as Cheng Cheng, while Qi Sheng stayed in the next room. Li Mingya arrived at this time.
"My goodness, you guys are so fast!" she exclaimed.
“We didn’t want this either, but there are no tickets left for tomorrow.” Cheng Cheng shrugged.
I should have bought the tickets first and then discussed it with my family. If they disagreed, I could have just gotten a refund.
"That's fine, I can show you around, but there's not much to see, they're all pretty much the same." Li Mingya thought for a long time but still couldn't arrange an itinerary for them.
Finally, after all three agreed, they decided to go shopping...
It's best not to ask Qi Sheng to attend on this occasion, lest they feel uncomfortable.
So she specifically told Qi Sheng to sleep well in the hotel and not to wander around, which earned her a glare from him.
"That's enough, Qi Sheng isn't a child." Cheng Cheng was also speechless.
Even her mentally challenged younger brother wasn't this outrageous.
“Why not? He’s a minor.” Gu Luoqi said righteously.
What's wrong with her giving a few more instructions to a minor?
If she doesn't approve of him, she'll be in for a world of trouble when she gets back home, her dad will definitely yell at her.
Li Mingya led the two around for a while and found that it was indeed similar to their city.
However, there was quite a lot to eat.
Before long, the three of them had a lot of food in their hands. While taking care of herself, Gu Luoqi did not forget to bring some for Qi Sheng, mostly sweets, even though Qi Sheng had told her not to bring any for him.
The two men stared at the food in her hands, even more speechless.
"That's too much."
"It's obvious you're afraid they'll starve to death."
Gu Luoqi said that this was not much at all, "I need to eat too, okay? And what if we get hungry in the middle of the night?"
Cheng Cheng couldn't refute her because her reasoning was so legitimate.
As a result of Gu Luoqi's enthusiasm, Qi Sheng received a large amount of food.
"I can't eat that much." Qi Sheng frowned.
Looking at such a pile of things, it's hard not to suspect that there's some waste involved.
Gu Luoqi took half of it from his arms, saying, "These are mine, and the rest are for you."
Don't assume she's that generous.
Qi Sheng said he didn't mind her childish behavior at all.
Because they have to stay up late tomorrow, they went to bed early tonight.
Unsurprisingly, Gu Luoqi and Cheng Cheng stayed in bed.
Gu Luoqi originally wanted to order takeout, and even planned to ask Qi Sheng if she needed any, but Qi Sheng told her that she could bring it back for them.
It's clear that this guy got up very early again.
Gu Luoqi interpreted his actions as a way of thanking her for bringing him food the night before, so she did not refuse.
Cheng Cheng said she couldn't be happier not to have to order takeout herself. She smiled and said, "It's so great to have a brother who runs errands for you."
Gu Luoqi sensed that she was implying something, and asked in return, "Don't you have a younger brother?"
Cheng Cheng shook her head, feigning seriousness, "Don't say anything more."
This is another sad story. Her brother was practically useless except for stealing her TV remote and hiding her snacks.
Compared to her brother, Qi Sheng's brother was incredibly considerate.
In the afternoon, the group set off for the vicinity of the fireworks festival.
Although it's not evening yet, there are already a lot of people around, with many small stalls and vendors nearby.
In Gu Luoqi's experience, the food from these small street vendors is the best. At times like these, she is always pleasantly surprised when she finds something delicious.
So they went for a stroll around the neighborhood first, and by the time it got dark, they had only explored about half of the area.
"Don't rush over there, it'll definitely be a while before it starts," Li Mingya said gently.
She was very familiar with this kind of event, since it happened every year.
Hearing her words, the group became even more relaxed. Although they hadn't eaten dinner, they were all quite full now.
Qi Sheng was still carrying quite a few things, while Gu Luoqi was still looking around with great interest.
The organizers probably felt that fireworks alone would be too boring, so they prepared other programs as well.
Although it's outdoors, it still creates a unique atmosphere.
My only prayer is that it doesn't rain, or everything will be ruined.
After they've finished exploring, the show will begin.
The only downside is that there's no place to sit.
Gu Luoqi checked the time; there was still an hour until New Year's Eve.
But as the time drew closer, more and more people joined in.
The crowd began to surge, perhaps because the fireworks display was about to begin.
At first, Gu Luoxi was still paying attention to the people around her, but as more and more people came, they still got separated.
Fortunately, Qi Sheng was still by her side. She hoped that Li Mingya and Cheng Cheng would get together. She subconsciously took out her phone and called Cheng Cheng, but no one answered. She then called Li Mingya.
Fortunately, the other party answered, but because there were too many people and too much noise, it was difficult for them to communicate.
Finding each other through the crowd is quite difficult right now, so they simply agreed to meet up later.
In fact, Qi Sheng's attention was always on her, and he was constantly careful to prevent others from crowding her.
After Gu Luoxi put down her phone, she looked up and met his gaze. The light was dim, but she could still vaguely see his slightly raised eyes.
Just then, someone behind her suddenly jostled, causing her to stumble forward. Qi Sheng instinctively steadied her shoulder, saying, "Be careful."
The two were very close at this moment, so close that Gu Luoqi could feel warm breath brushing against her cheek, tickling her and carrying a heat, which made her heart beat faster.
While she was still in a daze, he gently took her wrist and led her forward. Gu Luoqi did not break free.
He took her to a place where there weren't many people.
