"What?" Qi Siling lowered his head, not hearing clearly what she had just muttered.
"Nothing, can you skate?"
"Of course." Qi Siling stretched out his long legs, drew a circle on the ice, and returned to his original position. "When you learn it, I'll take you flying."
Xia Youyou looked a little hesitant. How long would it take for her to learn it?
"I think you should go skate for a while. I'll try to move on my own first."
How could Qi Siling listen to her? He faced her and took her hand, "I can skate like this too."
As he said this, he led her back carefully.
Xia Youyou held her breath, eager to learn quickly. But the more anxious she was, the more she lost her balance and kept leaning back unconsciously.
But as soon as she showed any signs of falling, the man would immediately hold her back in his arms.
She was a little discouraged. "I really can't seem to learn this!"
"It's only been a short while." Qi Siling opened his coat and held her in his arms, shaking her. "Just try it a few more times, and you'll be able to skate well!"
The two people's unbridled embrace attracted the attention of the onlookers. After just a short while, some people started pointing and talking at them.
Qi Siling's face turned cold and he looked over at the people who were gathered together talking.
Xia Youyou noticed his mood and raised her head from his arms, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay." He let her go and pulled her forward again. "Don't let some irrelevant people spoil your fun!"
Following his gaze, Xia Youyou finally understood.
But he was right, because of those people, it would be more trouble than good to spoil the fun!
After playing for a whole morning, Xia Youyou could only barely slide forward a little, but she still didn't dare to let go of Qi Siling.
Qi Siling took off his ice skates and carried Xia Youyou ashore. She sat lazily on his lap, obviously exhausted!
Even when she got her feet on the ground, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
"Are you okay?"
"Okay." He stood up and looked at the little ones who were changing their shoes over there.
They had a great time and were still chattering away.
She looked at the man with some guilt, "You didn't play much." He just accompanied her as she took her first steps.
Qi Siling curled his fingers and scraped her red nose, then spread his warm palms and covered her exposed eyes. "What nonsense are you talking about! Are you cold?"
"It's not cold." She felt sweaty, and when the cold wind from the lake blew, she shivered unconsciously.
"You said you're not cold!" Qi Siling gathered her cloak and covered her hood. "Let's go home first. I'll make you a bowl of ginger tea." He just hoped that she wouldn't have a fever tonight.
"It's really not cold." Xia Youyou was pulled away by him, and looked at Zi Bo and the others with difficulty, "Boil some more, and let's drink together." Although they were all young boys, they were all exposed to the wind today, and it would be troublesome if they caught a cold.
"But I'd rather take a bath!" Her back was sweaty and sticky.
"Okay!" As long as she wanted, Qi Siling would satisfy her unconditionally.
The group returned to the old house in a mighty procession. Qi Siling asked them to change their clothes first. They must have been sweating after all the fun! Then he asked the changed-up people to go to the Cao family's kitchen to make ginger tea and warm a pot of hot water while the kitchen here prepared to cook.
The whole family was busy and everyone had something to do, except Xia Youyou, who had nothing to do and was arranged to warm herself in front of the stove.
When it’s warmed up, drink the ginger tea and the meal will be ready.
The two old men also came out from the yard and gathered neatly in the main hall to have lunch.
Qi Siling picked up some food for the old man and told him about his recent plans.
Knowing that he was going on another long journey, the old man was a little reluctant, but a man's ambition is to travel far and wide. It doesn't make sense for Cao An and Xiao Hai to work hard outside while he enjoys the glory at home. Besides, the company is owned by three people, and he can't leave the whole business to the other two.
"Don't worry, I and your Grandpa Xiao are at home. I am also sensible. You don't have to worry about the family."
Old Master Qi looked at the little girl next to him, "It's just that Youyou is still young after all. You two have been apart for too long, and there's no one to take care of her!"
"Grandpa, don't look down on me! I can take care of myself!" Xia Youyou was very dissatisfied. Why did everyone think that she couldn't take care of herself?
"Hahaha……"
There was constant laughter in the main room, and even Qi Siling couldn't help pinching her face.
It's because they didn't let her do anything, which caused many of her life skills to be abandoned. Now she's become a useless little loser who can't take care of herself! Xia Youyou thought dejectedly, pouting and turning her head away, refusing him to touch her.
"Okay, grandpa is just teasing you!" Qi Siling held her in his arms and lowered his head to coax her.
Old Master Qi's goatee trembled with laughter, and he smoothed it with his hand, "You little bitch, you're still angry with Grandpa!"
"No way! I've been spoiled by my brothers and I'm angry with them!" After saying that, she glared at the man next to her.
"Who said you are useless? Who invented the walkie-talkie? Who developed the software? Even our Anhai Company was your idea. Who dares to say you are useless?" Qi Siling hugged her and coaxed her. If he didn't coax this little ancestor well, he was afraid that he wouldn't even be able to get into bed tonight!
"Yes, yes! Si Ling is right. You have contributed to the advancement of our country's science and technology. If anyone dares to call you useless, Grandpa Xiao will be the first to disagree!" Grandpa Xiao echoed. He knew that walkie-talkie, the magical black box, was more convenient than a phone!
Xia Youyou felt a little embarrassed by the compliment, and her face turned red.
"Grandpas, stop praising me and eat!"
The family had lunch happily. Xia Youyou felt unwell and was worried about the textbooks that had not been edited yet, so she pulled Qi Siling back to the main courtyard.
Qi Siling went to the kitchen to adjust the temperature of the water in the bathtub, put it into the space and returned to the bathroom.
Xia Youyou soaked in the bathtub of moderate temperature and sighed comfortably.
"You soak in it first. I'll go light the fire wall." The man leaned over and kissed her forehead, his eyes blazing as he looked at the exciting scene in the water.
"Where are you looking?" She blocked the beautiful underwater scenery with her hands, bit her lip and glared at him shyly.
Qi Siling retracted his naked gaze and stood up with difficulty. He had to move quickly, otherwise this girl would retreat into her shell again, and his welfare would have to wait until night!
How could Xia Youyou not feel the man's eagerness? However, when she thought of the uncontrollable situation between them in the morning and met his forbearing eyes, she couldn't bear to see him suffer.
Spread your hair, take it out of the washing bag and rub it gently.
When Qi Siling came in, she had already finished washing and was about to use a hair dryer to dry her hair.
"Why don't you wait for me?" He walked over and took the hair dryer from her hand, let her lean back on the edge of the bathtub, with her hair hanging naturally, and squatted down above her head.
Fortunately, the bathtub was high enough, otherwise, with the length of the hair, it would probably have fallen to the ground!
Xia Youyou closed her eyes comfortably as the gentle, warm breeze blew. The warm water washed away her morning fatigue, making her feel a little drowsy.
Qi Siming's slender and bony hands ran through her black hair, creating an ultimate collision of black and white.
He picked up a handful of black hair, put it to his nose and sniffed it, as if greedily, as if thirsty.
