"Why don't we change the fish? Maybe the others will be successful." Qingting saw an opportunity and suggested to Wei Lai.
"No, since you said it was that fish, it is that fish." Wei Lai started to fight with the goldfish.
Ten minutes later.
The stall owner looked pained as he put the goldfish in a transparent bag and handed it to Wei Lai.
She had already lost money by selling her best goldfish for ten dollars, and the two children still didn't pay. It was a huge loss.
Looking at the two children who happily left with the goldfish, she was also a little confused. Was it a pure coincidence that the child suddenly appeared and took the five paper nets from her hands?
After Wei Lai got the goldfish, he didn't care about what the stall owner's sister thought and handed the bag hanging on his hand to Qingting.
"This is for you, so we're even."
"Thank you, I like it very much." Qingting didn't expect that Wei Lai could really catch this goldfish. The paper net he got looked very good. If he had used other goldfish, he might have been able to catch two or three.
After being caught five times in a row, even a goldfish with a seven-second memory would hold a grudge. When the bag was shaking, it always turned its back to Wei Lai, and the opposite of Qingting, staring at him with wide eyes, without any fear.
"I think it likes you too."
"Yes, it looks like you." Qingting poked the goldfish through the bag and said with a smile.
【When did I ever say I like you? 】
Wei Laijue's face flushed a little, and he turned around to look around, "Since the goldfish is given to you, forget about the punishment."
"Well, it's not impossible, but you have to treat me to food."
"What do you want to eat?" Wei Lai touched his stomach. After playing for a long time, he was a little hungry.
"Come with me." Qingting couldn't wait to grab Wei Lai's hand and ran again.
The blue skirt swayed in the air. Wei Lai looked at her back and suddenly thought that this was the last Mid-Autumn Festival gathering, and ripples appeared in his heart.
…
The full moon was reflected on the river. Wei Lai and Qing Ting sat together on a stone pier by the river, each holding a cake in their hands. They looked at the river quietly and ate the cake spoonful by spoonful.
"Let's just wait here for the fireworks."
"It's good, but why print this kind of thing." Wei Lai bit the cake spoon and touched his forehead. There was a pattern printed on their foreheads by the old man selling mooncakes when they bought them.
"I saw you before when I went to the market during the Mid-Autumn Festival. You also had the old man's print on your forehead." Qingting said as she leaned towards Wei Lai calmly, scooped a spoonful of his cake and put it in her mouth.
"Really? I don't remember. Maybe I didn't remember at that time... Hey! Didn't I treat you to cake? Why do you want to eat mine?" Wei Lai just finished speaking when he suddenly found that half of his cake was missing.
"Did I eat it? You remembered it wrong. You ate it yourself." Qingting bit the spoon and blinked at Wei Lai.
I'm not a goldfish.
Wei Lai was sulking in his heart, but when he thought about how this was the last Mid-Autumn Festival gathering, his anger subsided. He lowered his head and scooped up the remaining cake, saying, "Just pretend I forgot about it."
"Hey~"
"What's the matter?" Wei Lai put the last spoonful of cake into his mouth and responded casually.
"Hey~"
"Just tell me if you have something to say."
Wei Lai looked up in confusion and saw Qingting holding a spoonful of cake and placing it in front of him.
"We're going to eat mooncakes later, so this last spoonful of cake is for you."
"Oh." Wei Lai glanced at the mooncake on Qingting's leg and had been confused since then.
Why did you only buy one mooncake and not let me buy one too?
He planned to ask after he finished eating the cake.
But just as Wei Lai was holding Qingting's spoon in his mouth, he heard the chirping sound of fireworks rising into the sky.
Brilliant fireworks bloomed on the other side of the river, followed by one firework after another, turning the night sky into a sea of light.
Wei Lai didn't have time to let go. He and Qingting looked sideways at the fireworks in the sky. The shining light left their shadows on the grass by the river behind them.
That is the shadow of the girl holding a spoon and feeding the boy cake.
When another wave of fireworks rose into the sky, Wei Lai let go of the spoon in his mouth and looked up at the fireworks in the sky and the full moon surrounded by fireworks with Qingting.
"Come, eat mooncakes." Qingting picked up the mooncake on her lap and gave half to Wei Lai.
With the sound of fireworks exploding in his ears, Wei Lai took a bite of the mooncake, moved closer to her, and said:
“Why only buy one mooncake?”
"Because I want to share it with you. Sharing it with my best friend is the most perfect thing."
"What if we separate in the future? Wouldn't that mean our life won't be complete?" Wei Lai looked down at the half mooncake in his hand.
"What did you say?" Qingting asked loudly, as if the fireworks covered Wei Lai's voice and she couldn't hear it.
"I said if we separate, it won't be complete."
"I can't hear you!"
"I don't want to be separated from you!" Wei Lai shouted at the top of his voice.
As the second wave of fireworks fell, Qingting stretched out her little finger and said with a smile:
"Okay then, it's a deal."
[You must have heard it a long time ago. You are teasing me again.]
Muttering to himself, Wei Lai still stretched out his little finger.
When their thumbs were hooked together, the third wave of fireworks bloomed in the air. Qingting suddenly leaned over and kissed him on the cheek.
Wei Lai: !!
He looked around at the people around him in panic. Everyone was looking at the fireworks in the sky, and Wei Lai finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why did you kiss me suddenly? Are you trying to tease me?"
"You have cake on your face."
Qingting said naturally while eating her mooncake.
[I can hear it, you were just teasing me.]
Thinking about the promise he had just made, Wei Lai felt a little complicated.
[Even though he's always being bullied, he still can't bear to be separated from her. Is he sick?]
"Do you know why I don't want to catch that puppet with a trap?" Qingting finished eating the mooncake, clapped her hands, and stood in front of Wei Lai and said.
Wei Lai was also confused, because the doll was obviously better than both of their pendants combined.
"Why?"
"Because I already have a stuffed doll you gave me. It's enough to have just one favorite thing."
Qingting stood with her hands behind her back, and the smile on her face seemed even more beautiful than the fireworks behind her.
Wei Lai swallowed the last bit of mooncake in his mouth. Apart from the sweetness of the mooncake left in his mouth, he seemed to understand something.
[Maybe because we are best friends, we don’t want to be separated.]
