The moon showed its round face. The people in Jiang City had turned off the lights and rested. The cicadas on both sides of the road kept chirping.
Three shadowy figures were walking on the road. The night wind was very cold at ten o'clock in the evening. At this time, there was no one on the road.
Gu Ting held Shen Qing's hand tightly, not letting go for a moment.
Xia Mang was in the front, walking and saying, "Huh? When was this street light replaced?"
"Oh, there used to be a candy store here, but now it's a supermarket."
"Qingqing, I remember you brought me here to get my hair cut, and that new apprentice almost plucked my hair out."
Xia Mang had lived in Jiang City for quite a long time before and was quite familiar with the place. Gu Ting looked unhappy when he heard what she said.
Noticing that something was wrong with the man, Shen Qing looked up at him and asked, "What are you doing?"
The jealousy is so strong that the air is filled with sourness.
"Hmm." Gu Ting snorted softly, "Why did Xia Mang come with us?"
Thinking of Xia Mang's provocative words during the day, he wanted to pack up and throw him back to Country M.
Gu Ting's voice was quite loud, and Xia Mang in the front heard it clearly. She chuckled and said, "Given my relationship with Qingqing, of course I have to come. Besides, it's all thanks to Jinmen. Otherwise, Qingqing and I wouldn't have met."
Gu Ting pursed his lips and his eyes gradually darkened.
"We're here." Shen Qing led them into the alley. The stairs leading upstairs were narrow. Shen Qing wanted to let go of Gu Ting's hand and go up one by one.
The man held it tightly, interlocking his fingers and refusing to let go.
"Let it be." Gu Ting whispered.
Shen Qing glanced down and acquiesced.
There was only one room, so Gu Ting was forced to sleep at Zhong Yi's house across the street.
Xia Mang took a shower. The weather was not too hot, so she changed into a suspender pajamas and walked coquettishly towards Shen Qing's bed.
"Little Qingqing?"
"roll."
"Oh." Xia Mang was scared.
She climbed onto the bed nimbly and lay down beside Shen Qing. The girl was texting with Lan Xinqiao, and Xia Mang caught a glimpse of the word "Lan".
"Go to bed early. Do you have to get up early tomorrow?" Xia Mang looked at the time. It was already eleven o'clock.
"Yeah." Shen Qing put down the phone and turned off the light.
The moonlight from outside the window shone in. Xia Mang stretched out his finger and looked at the moonlight.
Shen Qing took a look, said nothing, and then closed his eyes.
"Qingqing." Xia Mang called softly, then smiled.
"Yeah." The girl answered calmly.
"Actually, I'm quite envious of you." Xia Mang turned over and faced the moonlight outside the window.
Shen Qing paused, and opened his eyes slightly: "What is there to envy."
What is there for her to envy?
"I don't know." Xia Mang closed her eyes.
She didn't know what she envied. It might be Shen Qing's open-mindedness in facing things, it might be that there was someone who loved her by her side, or it might be that she still had a concern for her family in her heart.
All these things that can be seen are what Xia Mang envies.
Xia Mang grew up in an orphanage. No one knew where she came from or how old she was. Everything was just appearance.
He looks to be four years old. He came to the orphanage in the summer. Summer is full of grains and summer heat is connected, so he must have been born in the summer.
"Go to bed early." Shen Qing closed his eyes.
"I can't sleep." Xia Mang said truthfully.
"Qingqing, do you remember your childhood?" Xia Mang was quite curious about how Chen Qing learned as a child and how she knew everything.
"I forgot." Shen Qing replied lightly.
"I don't remember either." Xia Mang turned over again and glanced at the girl next to her in the moonlight. The silver moonlight sprinkled on her face, outlining a perfect outline.
It’s really beautiful, Xia Mang thought to himself.
