Chapter 118 The Woman Next to Him



"Where are we going today?"

They ordered sweet potatoes with shredded sugar. The sweet potatoes were covered with syrup and were covered with long strands of sugar. Wang Shuzhi was bored and picked up a caramel-colored strand of sugar with chopsticks and waved it in front of Qingqing.

Just like a cat seeing a toy stick, Qingqing's attention was immediately attracted.

Her head moved up and down and left and right with the swing of the sugar strands, and she almost made a few big circles.

Gu Lan was not used to Wang Shuzhi making fun of his sister, so he frowned and slapped Wang Shuzhi away with one hand.

Unexpectedly, the chopsticks fell all over the table, and the long chopsticks made a jingling sound when they hit the dishes, attracting the attention of the guests at the next table.

"Sorry, the child is ignorant."

Ou Qing nodded and apologized to the guests at the next table with a cold face. Seeing that he was tall and strong and looked like he was not easy to mess with, he did not dare to say anything. He could only smile stiffly and turn his head back as if nothing happened. Although his

eyes were turned away, if he listened carefully, he could still hear the conversation at the next table.

"Who do you say is a child?" A young man's voice was angry and defeated.

"Come on, what you did is more childish than Qingqing!" Another slightly arrogant and sarcastic voice.

"Qingqing, be good, be polite when eating, and don't learn from this uncle to play with food and throw chopsticks." The cold baritone rarely said a word.

"Yeah." The delicate and feminine tone was accompanied by an undisguised childishness. It should be a very young girl.

After hearing this, they thought that there were guests at the next table who were not impolite, so they withdrew their attention in time.

If they continued to eavesdrop, it would be their turn to be ignored.

Therefore, these people did not hear the second half of Qingqing's sentence.

"I'm already eight years old, but I'm not as childish as Uncle Wang."

Wang Shuzhi, who was besieged one after another, said: "..."

How did he suddenly become a public enemy?

Seeing Qingqing's innocent big eyes opposite him, Wang Shuzhi touched his nose guiltily.

Well, it's all his fault for teaching the child badly.

Wang Shuzhi and Ou Qing, who had guessed what Qingqing's situation was, did not show any strange expressions. Only Gu Lan heard something different from Qingqing's words.

Eight years old... Qingqing's memory has grown two years older.

At this rate, maybe it won't be long before her real sister comes back.

Gu Lan actually doesn't quite understand what Qingqing's memory is like.

She has all the memories of when she was younger, and with the recovery of memories of different ages, new and old memories are mixed and crossed. This should have been a very confusing thing, but Qingqing didn't show any abnormality at all.

She seemed to accept it all well.

However, it was a good thing for Qingqing to complete this memory transition comfortably, so Gu Lan did not intervene specifically, but continued to observe her silently.

As long as Qingqing feels unwell, he will rush her to the hospital for emergency treatment.

It is said that children nowadays are very smart, and some of them know more than adults.

Qingqing, the child "in the past", seems to be no less capable.

This was vividly demonstrated during today's trip.

The most obvious thing is that Qingqing no longer blindly follows the arrangements of adults, and does not follow them foolishly wherever they are told to go. She has her own ideas.

Originally, Wang Shuzhi wanted to take them to check in at the ancient food street. A little further away from the food street is an ancient town attraction, so they can experience the influence of classical culture.

Qingqing has no objection to this destination, but she has some complaints about the way of travel.

The reason was simple. Wang Shuzhi wanted to go out in his high-profile luxury car, while Qingqing simply wanted to take the sightseeing car inside the scenic area.

Tired of luxury cars, they wanted to try this novel car.

The two had different opinions, and their mental ages were similar. Neither of them was willing to give in, so they could only turn around and call Gu Lan and Ou Qing, and everyone voted together to decide.

"I brought Qingqing out to play this time. She can do whatever she wants, and I will listen to her."

Gu Lan didn't even hear the reason clearly, and directly stood on Qingqing's side.

After getting one vote, Qingqing raised her chin proudly.

She won!

"Don't be too happy too soon, Ou Qing. How do you want to play?"

Wang Shuzhi put his arm around Ou Qing's shoulders, his tone threatening.

"Anything is fine."

In the end, the man chose to give up.

Two to one, Wang Shuzhi lost.

After coming out of the hotel restaurant, several people went straight to the sightseeing bus at the door. Since this hotel is located inside the scenic area, it will naturally provide some necessary services.

The sightseeing bus inside the scenic area is one of them.

A car can only hold six to eight people, and you can directly charter a car for a little more money.

Gu Lan and his friends simply paid double the price to charter the car and let the driver take them for a ride.

It was a real ride. The car drove slowly on the road, and the breeze blew in their faces, bringing a refreshing coolness.

Qingqing sat near the edge, Gu Lan sat next to her, and in front of her were Wang Shuzhi and Ou Qing.

Wang Shuzhi had just had an argument with Qingqing, but now he and Qingqing were discussing in a friendly way

which famous restaurant to check in at when they went to the food court later.

The two of them hit it off right away when they talked about food, and the lively atmosphere was nothing like the bustling atmosphere in the hotel restaurant just now.

Gu Lan sighed tiredly, feeling like he was rushing out with two children.

That was why he didn't agree to let Wang Shuzhi come with him in the morning, but he couldn't stand the man's enthusiasm. He came over on his own and it was not easy to chase him away.

"What are you looking at?" Wang Shuzhi asked curiously when he noticed Ou Qing staring at his phone.

"Someone said they felt a faint vibration this morning." Ou Qing held up his phone to show Wang Shuzhi.

It was a post from a local in City G, saying that he felt the ground shaking when he woke up in the morning and was worried that it was an earthquake or something.

Many people commented below, most of them said they didn't feel anything, guessing that maybe someone next door was renovating, or it was just his illusion.

A small number of people thought the OP was scaremongering, and his words were sarcastic. Some weird people rushed in and scolded others indiscriminately, without knowing to read the content before commenting, and of course they were ridiculed by the crowd.

As a result, a small-scale verbal war was triggered.

Only a few people said that they also felt a weak vibration, but the feeling was too small, so they couldn't be sure.

The comments of these people were like a few drops of water in the ocean, falling down, not even causing a small wave, and being drowned.

Wang Shuzhi took a quick look and naturally didn't see those comments. He also thought that this might be the original poster's illusion.

He patted Ou Qing's shoulder and smiled indifferently: "Don't worry, if there really was an earthquake, how could the higher-ups not issue a notice?"

"Yeah." Ou Qing stared at the lake outside with his cold eyes.

The calm lake was as clear as jade, and the waves were rippling slightly. Everything was still as peaceful as it was in the old days. Maybe he was overthinking it.

Who would believe anything just because of a few words on the Internet?

"Little bird." Qingqing was originally looking at the scenery, and her eyes were suddenly attracted by a familiar little figure.

She smiled and waved to the outside, greeting him in a friendly manner.

Gu Lan turned his head when he heard the voice, mainly because of the word "little bird" that caught his attention.

However, after seeing the treetops full of birds, he turned his eyes away without interest.

After visiting the food street, he went to the ancient town.

It was still early when they came out, so Wang Shuzhi enthusiastically suggested going to see the famous ancient temple.

G City has preserved many ancient buildings and

has a very rich historical culture. Some historical sites have even been included in textbooks and become test points for students of a certain grade.

Wang Shuzhi was filming a costume drama this time. The crew specially decided to shoot in G City just to shoot here.

Before leaving, his agent gave him the script and itinerary, as well as a travel guide.

It is easy to imagine that this overly lively guy must seize every opportunity to go out and play.

Instead of letting him run around, it is better to plan for him first.

This way, at least if the person is missing, he can still look for him purposefully.

That's why Wang Shuzhi seems to be so familiar with G City. He will know where to eat and have fun as soon as he is asked.

The ancient temple is on the hillside, not very high.

It only takes about 20 minutes to get there by car to the foot of the mountain and then climb up. There is also an attraction on the mountain. They can slide down the hillside slide directly without having to walk hard.

This hillside slide is just a longer slide. The difference from an ordinary slide is that it is built on the mountain, so it is more novel to play.

Qingqing was not interested in the ancient temple, but she was successfully attracted by the slide.

So she was the second person who agreed to go to the ancient temple. Since she agreed, Gu Lan would naturally not disagree. Ou Qing was too lazy to think and gave up her right.

It was equivalent to a unanimous approval.

The four of them set off, and Qingqing even made a video call with Fu Heng on the way.

"Fu Heng." Qingqing happily waved to Fu Heng, who was sitting in a high-end restaurant opposite him in a high-end suit.

"Are you having fun, Qingqing?" As soon as he saw Qingqing, the look in Fu Heng's eyes softened a lot.

"Yeah, I'm very happy!" Nodding continuously, Qingqing chatted with Fu Heng about the past two days with great interest.

They were all trivial things, but Fu Heng listened with relish and didn't feel impatient at all.

The two were chatting happily when a lazy, low, smoky voice interrupted them: "I understand that Chairman Fu misses his wife, but shouldn't you tell me about our relationship first?"

Qingqing was stunned. Although the person's voice was uniquely hoarse, she could still tell that it was a woman.

Is Fu Heng having dinner with a woman?

Alone?

She felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, as if someone had taken away her favorite toy.

Qingqing puffed up her cheeks and glared: "Who are you having dinner with?"

You can tell from her tone that she is unhappy.

"I... zizizi..."

Fu Heng's words disappeared

on the paused screen.

Qingqing shook her phone strangely and found that it still didn't respond.

She was a little confused and could only ask the owner of the phone for help: "Brother, it's broken."

"Broken?" Gu Lan took the phone from Qingqing and checked it. "It's okay, there's just no signal. Maybe the signal is not good on the mountain."

This is a normal thing.

"But I haven't finished talking to Fu Heng yet."

Qingqing was still thinking about the woman's voice she just heard.

She didn't understand why she cared so much about this matter, but she was instinctively alert.

It was like a dragon guarding a treasure, worried that someone would steal her treasure.

Everyone looked like a suspect.
