Wei You's work in the real world has become much busier. In addition to the frequent need to communicate with Xia Guangsi and his team, recording and editing game videos often takes several hours. Therefore, whenever he returns to the game world, he can't help but sigh that time passes too quickly. Every time he comes in, he can feel the obvious changes in the natural environment and Guazi.
In almost the blink of an eye, Guazai spent the summer vacation of the second grade, successfully entered the third grade, and unknowingly completed the third grade study and was about to become a fourth-grade elementary school student.
For Wei You, the scene when he first entered the game world and saw the child in dinosaur pajamas crying with his head down was as clear as if it happened yesterday. When he flipped through the calendar one day, he found that Wei Xu's tenth birthday was coming soon.
On his birthday last year, Wei You gave him a Gundam model. On this year’s birthday, Wei You plans to take him to Chuanlin City to play for a few days.
Guazai’s birthday is very easy to remember, it’s August 8th, an auspicious number, and it’s usually during the summer vacation, so you can go out and play without worrying about anything else.
So on the morning of Wei Xu's birthday, Wei You put a yellow sun hat on Guazi, and he himself put on a black baseball cap. He carried a backpack with a water bottle and a small amount of clothes, and held Guazi's little hand and went to the bus stop in town.
Because every time he took the child out to play, Wei Xu would have some symptoms of motion sickness when taking long-distance buses, Wei You bought motion sickness medicine at the station this time and let him take it half an hour in advance so that he would be more comfortable when riding.
After taking motion sickness pills, the two sat under an awning waiting for the bus. The area around them was crowded with other passengers waiting for the bus, and the bright summer sun made the road surface hot.
Wei You looked at the scene in front of him and inexplicably thought of the movie "Kikujiro's Summer".
He thought nonsensically that if a movie was made about him and Wei Xu hanging out, it wouldn't sound nice to call it Wei You's Summer; it should be called Guazi's Summer.
After a while, the bus to the city arrived and a group of people got on. The conductor stood at the door and shouted at them to line up.
Children under 1.2 meters tall are free of charge on buses here.
Wei Xu was 1.25 meters tall, and because he was only a little bit taller than the standard, it wasn't noticeable, so the ticket seller let him pass for free.
After sitting down, Wei Xu suddenly leaned over to Wei You's shoulder and whispered, "Fortunately, you are short."
Wei You was amused by him: "Is this something to be proud of?"
Wei Xu opened his eyes wide, as if saying: Isn't it good to ride for free?
Wei You shook his head helplessly.
If there is one thing that has not changed in the past two years, it is Guazai's height.
Wei You sometimes felt very strange. Whenever he cooked, he would pay attention to Wei Xu's balanced diet. He never stopped drinking two bags of fresh milk every day. Some time ago, he gave Guazi calcium tablets on the doctor's advice, but the boy just couldn't grow taller, or grew very slowly. At school, no matter whether he was queuing or arranging seats, Wei Xu was always one of the boys at the front row.
Wei You suspected that it might be because his foundation was too weak before. It was not easy for this child to grow taller or gain weight. Although he had raised him not as thin as before in the past two years, he still looked smaller than his peers.
Of course, he rarely mentioned these things in front of the children, so as to prevent Wei Xu from worrying about his height.
At this time, he just said, "Your father is so tall, you will definitely grow tall in the future, just like me, maybe even taller than me."
Guazi looked at him and nodded thoughtfully.

It takes about two hours to drive from Xiangfang Town to the city station, and it was lunch time when the two arrived there.
Since it was a rare opportunity for him to come here, Wei You took Wei Xu to the very popular Old Grandpa Western fast food restaurant at that time to eat a family bucket. Then he found a hotel nearby and booked a room. After putting down his things, he took Wei Xu to visit the Underwater World in the afternoon.
The sun in the afternoon of midsummer is so scorching that people sweat.
Fortunately, the temperature dropped after entering the aquarium, but the fishy smell in the humid air was a little uncomfortable.
There are many people visiting the aquarium during the summer vacation, most of them are adults with children.
Wei You was afraid that Wei Xu would get lost, so he would hold his hand whenever he was in a crowded place.
Wei Xu's hands seemed particularly tender to him, and he didn't dare to hold them too tightly for fear of hurting him.
They watched colorful freshwater fish on the first floor, went to the second floor to see all kinds of colorful corals and jellyfish, and then joined a group of elementary school students on a summer vacation trip and watched a sea lion show.
When passing through the underwater tunnel on the way back, Wei Xu was surrounded by beautiful fish. He couldn't help but look up with his mouth open in amazement, his eyes filled with sparkling water light.
Wei You suddenly wanted to record this scene, so when there was no one in the passage, he took out his cell phone from his bag and took a picture of Wei Xu.
Just then, a ray happened to swim behind Wei Xu along the glass wall. Wei You hurriedly said, "Little melon, turn around and look at me."
Wei Xu turned around, his eyes wide open, looking confused.
"Come on, do it with me." Wei You raised the corner of his mouth and tilted his head to poke his cheek.
Wei Xu was amused by his actions and smiled, revealing two rows of beautiful white teeth, but when it was his turn, he felt a little embarrassed to do this cute action.
In the photo that Wei You finally took, the child was poking his face with one hand, smiling a little stiffly and shyly, but one could still feel his happiness at the moment from his eyes and the atmosphere around him.

On the second day, Wei You took Wei Xu to the amusement park and rode the roller coaster and the Ferris wheel. On the third day, the two went to a famous local attraction, the Zhuangyuan Temple, and made a wish in advance that the smart little boy would be able to become the top scorer in the college entrance examination in the future.
The night before returning home, Wei Xu seemed a little depressed while lying on the big bed in the hotel. He couldn't laugh at Mr. Bean's funny actions on TV.
Wei You noticed this and asked him, "Are you sleepy?"
The child first shook his head, then nodded, and suddenly slid into the quilt, hugged Wei You's waist, and rested his head on his shoulder without moving.
"Are you really sleepy?"
Wei Xu responded softly.
"Then I'll turn off the TV and we can go to bed early." As he said that, he picked up the remote control to turn off the TV and then slid into bed.
The room suddenly became quiet, and one could faintly hear the sound of cars passing by on the road and the sound of the air conditioner blowing cold air.
There was a faint smell of disinfectant on the hotel's quilt, and Wei Xu didn't like the smell very much, so he moved his face closer to Wei You's body.
After a moment of silence, he suddenly called softly, "Brother."
Wei You was calculating the date of his return in his mind, and he reflexively said "hmm" when he heard this.
"elder brother."
"Um?"
"elder brother."
Wei You turned his head, pulled the quilt down, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wei Xu thought that he was already ten years old and his brother would soon be even busier than before, and he couldn't help feeling sad.
After a while, he poked his head out from under the quilt and pleaded in a weak voice, "Brother, please don't ignore melon kid, okay?"
"I won't ignore you," Wei You knew what he was worried about, so he patiently comforted him, "I still want to see you grow up, to see you grow tall and straight, and become a responsible young man in the future."
Wei Xu pursed his lips, paused and suddenly said: "Thank you."
Wei You was amused by his thank you, pinched his cheek and said, "You have learned to be polite to me."
Wei Xu rubbed his face, smiled cooperatively, then buried his head in the quilt shyly, his heart beating inexplicably fast.
Of course I have to say thank you, he thought.
Although he was still young, Wei Xu knew very well that he should be grateful that someone was willing to take care of a child like him who was unwanted without asking for anything in return.
