"Qiqi, you will be 18 years old after the Chinese New Year. Do you have any New Year wishes?" Xiao Li asked casually while lying on the chair and eating melon seeds.
Hearing Xiao Li's question, Huo Qiqi put down the fruit plate in her hand and said with a smile, "My New Year's wish, let me think about it, well, it's to be happy every day. Specifically, I want to go to Hong Kong University with everyone in September, and go abroad to see the world before I start college."
After hearing what Huo Qiqi said, Xiao Li's eyes widened and he said in surprise, "Qiqi, you are going abroad. I want to go too. You have to take me with you. Don't worry, I won't make trouble. Having a little beauty like me by your side is also a very happy thing, isn't it?"
Huo Qiqi peeled a hairy crab and handed it to Xiao Li, saying with a smile, "Don't rush this matter. After all, there is still a long time. If I can take you with me when the time comes, I will definitely not abandon you."
As for whether to bring Xiao Li with her, Huo Qiqi needs to think about it carefully. If she brings Xiao Li with her, she will have to choose a visible means of transportation. She doesn't really want to take a long flight to go abroad.
If she used the system's teleportation technique, the system space might be exposed, so she did not agree to Xiao Li's request immediately.
Xiao Li didn't feel anything about Huo Qiqi's answer. After all, Huo Qiqi must have something important to do when she went abroad, so it was normal for her to take him with her or not.
"Xiao Li, since you asked me and I answered, let me ask you, what is your New Year's wish?" Huo Qiqi looked into Xiao Li's eyes and asked with a smile.
Xiao Li was stunned. She didn't expect Huo Qiqi to ask the same question. She thought for a moment and said with a smile, "I'm pretty much the same as you. I just want to be happy every day, eat well, drink well, and sleep well. The best thing is, I want to save some money and buy some gifts for that big liar master."
When Huo Qiqi heard Xiao Li's New Year's wish, she shook her head helplessly. This silly girl was really cute.
Time flies, and it is already the second day of the Chinese New Year.
Xiao Li's mouth has not stopped these two days. Huo Qiqi took out a lot of delicious food from the system space and fed it to Xiao Li. Xiao Li also accepted these things with a smile. She consciously did not ask about the origin of the food and happily took them all into her stomach.
Xiao Li looked at himself in the mirror and said depressedly, "Qiqi, I feel like I've been living too well these past few days. I've eaten too much and I've gained weight. What should I do? I don't want to gain weight anymore, but I can't bear to give up delicious food."
Huo Qiqi looked at Xiao Li, who had a bit of baby fat, poked her chubby little face with her hand, and said with a smile, "In that case, let's go out for a walk?"
Huo Qiqi doesn't plan to visit each family to wish them a happy new year these days. After all, they are quite busy right now, so she plans to take Xiao Li out for a walk today to truly feel the atmosphere of the New Year in this era?
The two of them rode their bicycles and visited all the interesting places in Beijing. Xiao Li said with a sense of satisfaction, "Qiqi, where are you going next?"
Huo Qiqi thought about it and suddenly thought of a place. She smiled and said to Xiao Li, "Xiao Li, come with me. I will take you to a very interesting place."
Xiao Li scratched his head and looked at Huo Qiqi with wide eyes in confusion. Is there any fun place that she doesn't know about?
The two rode their bikes, chatting and laughing along the way, which was quite interesting. An hour later, they arrived at the destination Huo Qiqi mentioned. Looking at the building in front of them, Xiao Li asked doubtfully, "Qiqi, is this the place you mentioned? Should we go in?"
Huo Qiqi nodded and said with a smile, "Xiao Li, you are right. This is the place I was talking about. There are many delicious foods and fun things here."
Beijing Friendship Store.
As soon as the two entered the building, Xiao Li saw the dense crowds of people and exclaimed, "Qiqi, there are so many people here. Are you all here to buy things? I heard that there are a lot of things here and many of them are specially prepared to accommodate foreigners. The things here seem to be very expensive."
Huo Qiqi smiled and said to Xiao Li, "Xiao Li, you're right. Many of the things here are prepared to be sold to foreign friends. This is a place where you can earn foreign exchange."
"What's going on here? Why can't you understand what I say?" A foreigner speaking Chinese complained to the clerk.
The clerk desperately tried to explain in English, "Excuse me, sir, can you speak English? Our clerk who can speak Mandarin is not here today because of something."
The F countryman could understand English, but he couldn't speak it, so the two of them started arguing.
Director Xu, who was reading materials in the office, hurried to the scene after hearing the clerk's report. As the person in charge of the Friendship Store, he could understand English, but he couldn't speak it.
He said to the crowd in a sheepish tone, "I wonder if any comrades who understand Chinese could act as an interpreter. We are willing to pay a certain amount of hard work fee. Thank you for your help."
Everyone at the scene looked at each other and nodded helplessly. They also wanted to earn some hard work fees, but unfortunately they didn't understand Mandarin.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Li said to Huo Qiqi, "Qiqi, do you want to give it a try? After all, it can be considered as doing some good things."
Before Huo Qiqi could say anything, a heavily made-up woman beside her scoffed, "You really think you're someone important. You're so young, yet you're bragging without thinking. It's hilarious."
Huo Qiqi snorted coldly, looked at the woman who had spoken with disdain, and said coldly, "Comrade, everyone wants to help the Friendship Store and solve its problems. You are here making sarcastic remarks. What is your purpose? Are you trying to destroy the unity among the people? Are you trying to sabotage the country's foreign exchange earnings?"
Huo Qiqi's words made everyone gasp. The heavily made-up woman was stunned. She hadn't expected Huo Qiqi to be so sharp and put such a heavy accusation on her in just a few words. If the charges were proven, neither she nor her family would have a good outcome.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead and stammered to explain, "Comrade, I just spoke too quickly. I didn't mean it that way. I'm sorry. Please don't pursue me. Please."
Huo Qiqi glanced at her indifferently and pulled Xiao Li to leave. She had just been planning to rescue the Friendship Store, but now her mood was ruined and she wanted to leave.
Director Xu, who was standing by, saw this and immediately came up to Huo Qiqi and said sincerely, "Comrade, if you really understand Mandarin, please help me. I will report this to my superiors."
Seeing Director Xu's sincere expression, Huo Qiqi thought for a moment, nodded, and said seriously, "I can help you with this, but I don't need any compensation, nor do I need your praise. I'll just do a good deed today."
Director Li nodded with satisfaction. She didn't expect Huo Qiqi to be so aware. Although Huo Qiqi said she didn't want anything, she still decided to give Huo Qiqi some hard work compensation afterwards.
Huo Qiqi walked past the crowd and approached the F countryman. She asked in F country, "Sir, what do you need? Please tell me. I'm the translator invited by the Friendship Store."
