"Zhimu, try Auntie's cooking." Luo Jiaqi served Xia Zhimu a bowl of winter melon pork ribs soup, and seeing the girl's cautious look, she said slowly, "Just treat it as if this is our home, don't be nervous."

Xia Zhimu nodded, took the bowl and took a sip. The wax gourd was soft and sweet, and the pork ribs were tender but not greasy. They were indeed delicious, similar to Luo Jiaqi's.

Luo Jiaqi chatted with the dean for a while, turned her head and found that the girl was only picking up the bowl of vegetables in front of her, knowing that the girl was embarrassed, she put on a serious look, and picked up a few chopsticks of beef for the girl, "Don't be picky eaters. "

After dinner, everyone walked out of the restaurant. There were a few more "uninvited guests" in gray overalls in the compound, who were busy for some reason.

After a while, several silver-white street lamps suddenly lit up in the semi-dark courtyard.

One of the men wearing a peaked cap walked up to Luo Jiaqi and bowed slightly, "President Luo, everything is done, then let's go first."

Luo Jiaqi nodded, "Thank you."

"Miss Luo, you..."

Luo Jiaqi interrupted the dean just in time, "Aunt Zhao, don't tell me if you're being polite."

The dean opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything.

Suddenly, there was an exclamation from among the children. Hearing the sound, a red star floated across the sky.

Seeing the surprised look on the girl's face, Luo Jiaqi asked softly, "Want to try?"

Xia Zhimu was a little surprised, "You prepared for this too?"

Luo Jiaqi snorted, feeling that the dazed person in front of her was cuter than children, "Don't you know anything about folk customs? Everyone will put Kongming lanterns before New Year's Day."

Xia Zhimu smiled and said: "I don't care too much about these."

The woman quickly fetched a piece of blue paper to make a Kongming lantern, filled it with wax oil, lit it, and handed Xia Zhimu a writing brush dipped in black ink, "You can write your wishes on it."

The two stood facing each other, with the Kongming lantern propped up by the heat in the middle, and the stars and flames danced under the paper.

"What did you write?" Xia Zhimu's curiosity began to stir.

Luo Jiaqi shook her head, "It won't work if you express your wish."

After writing, the eyes of the two have been following the Kongming lantern. The paper lantern fluttered all the way up, becoming one of the stars, and gradually disappeared in the wind.

One side of the blue paper reads: I don't want anything else, I only wish Mu Mu to be safe and happy, and my wishes come true.

After helping the eager children to release the sky lanterns, the two got up and said goodbye.

On the way home, Xia Zhimu suggested: "Jiaqi, shall we go shopping on Anping Avenue?"

"Is there anything you want to buy?"

Xia Zhimu glanced at the woman, then turned his head to look out the window, "That's right."

Although the evening rush hour has passed, the new city is still congested, and the dark red taillights can't be seen at a glance. It was only half an hour's drive, and it has been an hour and a half since we arrived at the sky parking lot next to the shopping mall.

The heater was on in the car, and it stopped and went. Xia Zhimu felt a little sick. When the car stopped, she almost rushed out of the car, with one hand on the pillar, gān gān.

Luo Jiaqi hurriedly took out a bottle of water from the car, unscrewed the cap and handed it to the girl, "Are you okay?"

Xia Zhimu took a few sips of water before suppressing the nausea, and let out a long breath, "It's okay, it's okay."

Luo Jiaqi was still a little worried. The girl's face was pale, and the temperature was not high at night, but her head was sweating profusely. She wiped the sweat off the girl's forehead with her sleeves, "How about we go back?"

"Hey~" Xia Zhimu put his arms around the woman's shoulders, "Isn't it more uncomfortable to go back now? Why don't you go for a walk."

Luo Jiaqi felt that what the girl said was not unreasonable, she glanced at a smear of black out of the corner of her eye, and turned her head to see a large area of ​​black and gray above Xia Zhimu's eyes, like a puppy rolling in a pile of charcoal.

Only then did the woman remember that her clothes were covered with a lot of dust and she forgot to deal with it, "Zhimu...your face..."

"My face? What's wrong with my face?" Xia Zhimu wiped it twice casually, his hands were all black, and he was stunned for two seconds before he realized it.

"Sorry." With that said, the woman covered her mouth and smiled silently, her beautiful eyes narrowed into a line.

Xia Zhimu felt that he must be very funny now, and put his hand on Luo Jiaqi's face in revenge, leaving a black fingerprint, and the corner of his mouth raised high.

After arguing for a while, they all turned into tabby cats. Luo Jiaqi took out a wet towel from her bag to wipe off the dirt on the girl's face, and then wiped her own face.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and walked into the mall side by side.

The shopping mall was crowded with people, Luo Jiaqi was afraid of getting separated from Xia Zhimu, so she subconsciously hugged Xia Zhimu's arm.

Feeling the softness on his arms, Xia Zhimu's whole body froze for a moment, a wave of heat rushed from his belly to his forehead, his fair face was stained red, and spread all the way to his ears.

Xia Zhimu pretended to be natural and pulled out his hand, took off his heavy coat and put it on his forearm, "The heating here is too high, it's so hot."

Luo Jiaqi didn't think much, and reached out to Xia Zhimu, "May I help you?"

Xia Zhimu shook his head and held the woman's hand, "No need, you follow me, there are too many people."

When passing by the shopping guide sign, both of them stopped and looked at the floor index carefully. Luo Jiaqi walked towards the escalator, but was pulled back.

Luo Jiaqi was a little puzzled, "What's the matter? The leisure and sports area is upstairs."
