Her fair and flawless cheeks were slightly flushed, and her eyes held a hint of barely suppressed shyness and a touch of panic.
"It's nothing, just asking casually." Wang Ji smiled faintly, giving her a meaningful look.
She became even more agitated, pursed her rosy lips, and lowered her head, not daring to say anything.
After a long pause, she couldn't help but murmur softly, "It's...it's a bit early..."
Wang Ji seemed not to understand, and said "Oh" in response: "Of course it's early."
Her face turned even redder. She lowered her head, forking her food with her fork, but she couldn't lift her hands, as if she had no strength left in her body.
A few seconds later, her voice was barely audible: "Either go back to my house, or go back to... your house, no... don't go outside."
She knew that Wang Ji now had a home, or rather, a house. His parents had left him two houses, but he lost them later, and now they were back in his name.
His home is in Juxia City, and her home is also in Juxia City.
"What are you talking about? You want to watch a movie at home?" he asked, puzzled.
"..."
"You broke someone's tableware." Wang Ji pointed at Qi Lin's clenched little fists.
Inside the fist was a crushed knife and fork.
Wang Ji kindly took it, pried open her small hand, and ran his fingers over the knife and fork, instantly restoring them to their original state.
Qi Lin wasn't curious about this at all; she knew she wouldn't know even if she asked.
"Do I need an ID card to watch a movie?" she said through gritted teeth, enunciating each word clearly.
A pair of almond-shaped eyes glared at him fiercely, as if she wanted to devour him.
"That's why I said I was just asking casually. What were you thinking?" Wang Ji said innocently.
Then, as if suddenly realizing something, she looked at Qilin and said, "Oh..."
...
“It seems like I haven’t seen Zizai all day. Actually, it’s good that you brought it with you. You said it would be gone soon, and I didn’t really get to know it well.”
Time is the most precious thing, and many couples spend Qixi Festival together. Wang Ji and Qi Lin are just one of them.
They dine together, watch movies, go shopping, buy things, buy flowers, and attend concerts, just like any other ordinary couple, without any special events like booking out or clearing out the venue.
But Qi Lin was very happy. Although there was nothing special, it was clear that Wang Ji had made preparations in advance, such as booking seats and buying tickets in advance. He also knew where there were large-scale Qixi Festival events in Juxia City and had arranged everything.
Like countless other couples, they strolled through the bustling Qixi Festival events throughout Juxia City, holding hands, embracing, and kissing passionately…
Their first Qixi Festival.
Just as Qilin had imagined, there was romance and surprises.
Holding a large bouquet of flowers, Qi Lin rode on Wang Ji's waist and said.
She quite liked the little thing, calling it "Mom" repeatedly. However, Wang Ji said that it would soon be gone from the Juxia and wouldn't stay with him.
“It’s not like we’ll never see each other again. We’ll get to know each other eventually. Why would we need a little third wheel for Qixi Festival when it’s just the two of us?” Wang Ji replied matter-of-factly.
He thought to himself, "This policewoman's legs are really strong. She almost broke his waist trying to hold herself on top of him..."
"Why does it call you Dad? And how did it come to be?" Qi Lin asked curiously, leaning down as a breeze blew, causing her skirt and hair to flutter backward.
"Even a tiger wouldn't eat its own cubs..." Wang Ji replied casually, but feeling a bit awkward talking with his back to her, he slowly shifted his body and turned around to face Qi Lin.
"I picked it up from a chicken processing plant in country A. You probably haven't seen a machine that directly shreds male chicks... A group of newly hatched male chicks are fed into the conveyor line and shredded. It's just one of them."
I needed a chick, and this was the luckiest one. I picked it out of the conveyor belt and used genetic engineering to transform it into what it is now.
In a way, it's now considered a little monster, just like Monkey King said.
Wang Ji's words shocked Qi Lin. She never expected that such a cute little guy would have such an origin.
"At first, it was very wary of me and not as lively as it is now. And from the very beginning, it was determined to call me Dad."
They probably thought, "I definitely won't eat it."
"So that's why you recently stopped eating chicken..." Qi Lin suddenly remembered something like that.
If you think about it carefully, he didn't have any dietary restrictions when he first met Wang Ji, but later he stopped eating chicken and other similar foods, and even stopped eating eggs.
Qi Lin found it strange at the time, but since Wang Ji didn't say anything, she didn't pay any attention to it.
For a moment, she looked at Wang Ji's young face, her eyes filled with tenderness and affection, and couldn't help but lean down and kiss his lips.
To avoid further entanglement, she immediately withdrew, looked up, and smiled gently: "Then I won't eat it either."
She hadn't thought of this during the day.
That little thing looks cute and lively, but it can be quite grumpy at times. It's really hard to guess that there's such a story between it and him.
"It doesn't care whether you eat it or not, it only cares about me. Just do as you please."
“That won’t do either, it’s already calling me Mom.” Qi Lin shook her head seriously.
It wouldn't be a big deal if she hadn't thought of it, but now that she has, she will naturally do the same as Wang Ji.
He is so thoughtful... He will definitely be a good father.
"Hey...you fall back down, you look weird like this..." Qi Lin suddenly said, her face slightly flushed.
