Xiao Gu stopped on his tracks and nodded towards Zhou Yiran, saying hello. Husky in front of him yelled twice and pulled him to Zhou Yiran.
“Wang Wang!” Husky barked at Zhou Yiran hostily.
“Tiantian, don’t make trouble.” Xiao Gu pulled the leash on his hand, but Husky still barked Zhou Yiran unconvinced.
Zhou Yiran glanced down at him and addressed Xiao Gu: “Your dog?”
Xiao Gu responded lightly: “Yes.”
His gaze shifted to Mi Qing, who was standing next to Zhou Yiran, and then turned to Zhou Yiran: “Are you going out for fun?”
“Yes.” Zhou Yiran answered with a smile, “Today is not her working day, so she wouldn’t be having any salary deduction to play.”
Xiao Gu’s lips ticked silently: “Even if there was salary deduction, didn’t you say you’d double it up for her?”
Zhou Yiran merely smiled and spoke no more. Xiao Gu took another look at Mi Qing and pulled his dog back: “Tiantian, let’s go.”
“Wang!” Husky barked at Zhou Yiran once more, and then wagged his tail at Mi Qing.
Mi Qing waved at him: “I’ll buy you meat later.”
“Wang Wang!” For the first time, Husky was stressed by the difficulty of communicating with humans.
After he was dragged away by Xiao Gu helplessly, he began to lose his temper and threw all sorts of mischief. Xiao Gu stood up and rubbed his head: “Do you want a beating again?”
“Wang!” Husky glared at him sullenly. You’re the expert at beating me, if you have such ability, why didn’t you beat that person just now!
Xiao Gu laughed suddenly, squatting down and looking him in the eye, “You dare scold me, if I had let you go, would you have had the guts to bite him?”
“Woo woooo.” Husky’s momentum instantly plummeted by half.
“So, there’s no need for your bluff.” Xiao Gu stood up, pulling him forward again, “I will handle it myself.”
Back at the gate of the community, after Mi Qing got into Zhou Yiran’s car, he handed her a beautifully wrapped box: “Here, a gift for you.”
Mi Qing was surprised and received the box. “What is this? A Christmas gift?”
Zhou Yiran could not help but laugh out loud: “Your birthday gift, did you forget it?”
Mi Qing immediately joined in the laughter, “Oh, yeah, I forgot.” She beamed, and then asked skeptically, “Did you always carry these gifts with you? Or did you go on a special trip back to City A to get it?”
Zhou Yiran said, “I went back yesterday to get it.” He pointed to the back seat sideways, “The rabbit plush doll is also for you.”
Mi Qing glanced back to the back seat and sure enough, there she saw a big rabbit doll sitting there, wearing a seat belt. She couldn’t help laughing, “Thank you, but you didn’t have to run back to get it, how troublesome it is.”
“It’s no trouble at all.” Zhou Yiran turned and looked at Mi Qingdao. “By the way, you really like rabbits.”
Mi Qing grinned and said nothing.
She still remembers the first time she saw Rabbit gege for the first time. She ran out of the ball that day and met a monstrous dog in the garden. A five-year-old like her was not even as big as that dog, and she was terrified the moment the dog stared at her.
It was dark, and the darkness exacerbated her fear. She couldn’t even remember how she started to cry.
Then the story unfolded, Rabbit gege suddenly appeared in front of her with a pair of pink rabbit ears on his head, shining like a pair of hot iron in the dark, branding his image into her heart.
Since then, she became enamored with Rabbit gege and the rabbit ears on his head. She became obsessed with all things related to rabbits, and collected piles and piles of rabbit ears. She even begged her mother to raise rabbits for a while.
Rabbits are really cute, but she never asked Brother gege why a sensible boy like him would wear a pair of rabbit ears.
Perhaps it was his personal hobby.
Besides, his Weibo username is also Mr. Rabbit.
Noticing her giddy smile, Zhou Yiran asked, “What’s on your mind?”
Mi Qing shook her head in concealment: “It’s nothing, just thinking about where to play in a while.”
Zhou Yiran had actually prepared their trip before departure, but still asked her for her opinion: “Is there any place you want to go?”
“Uhm.” Mi Qing thought hard, “I’m not familiar with City A, originally Xiao Gu said he would take me to play …”
Mi Qing came to a stop abruptly. That’s right, he was going to take herself out to play.
She didn’t know why. She suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. She pursed her lips and stopped talking.
Zhou Yiran groaned and smiled pleasantly: “Let’s go to the Starlight Department Store first. Yu’s has put up a dessert shop there, haven’t you eaten there yet?”
“No.” Mi Qing shook her head. She hung around Yu restaurants often when she was in City C. She originally planned to visit all of Yu’s restaurants here when she came to City A, but her plan was cut off right from the start since her money was stolen.
“Then let’s start off at the dessert shop for some sweets.” Zhou Yiran started the car excitedly.
It was not long before they reached the dessert shop. Since its establishment, it has always been crowded giving off the impression of not reaching the counter even after a day. Fortunately, Zhou Yiran had Yu’s black card and they walked through a back door.
While sitting in the dining area eating, Mi Qing was so happy that she almost bubbled up: “Ah, I haven’t eaten such delicious treats for a long time!” After she said it, she corrected herself, “Ah, that’s not right, Xiao Gu’s stuff was also super delicious. Did you eat dried mango when you came to the store last time? He made it himself, it was a hit. “
Zhou Yiran smiled in response. He stood up and asked Mi Qing, “What else do you want to eat? I’ll buy it for you.”
Mi Qing ordered two more cakes, and Zhou Yiran went through the back door again.
By the time they finished their snacks, it was already eleven o’clock. The two took a turn around the mall, planning to digest their food before going to another restaurant for lunch.
Many of the staff in front of the mall counters were dressed in Christmas outfits. Zhou Yiran glanced at Mi Qing and said, “Let’s come out again at Christmas. It should be more lively at that time.”
“Okay!” Mi Qing agreed happily.
Zhou Yiran chuckled, and the two walked under the Christmas tree in the mall. Zhou Yiran pointed to the piano under the Christmas tree and said to Mi Qing, “Do you want me to play a piece for you?”
Mi Qing laughed wryly: “Hahaha, sure, in fact, I saw your post on Weibo before. You also played it last time and recorded it, right?”
Zhou Yiran winked at her: “This time, it’s exclusive a song for you.”
Mi Qing felt a bit shy at once. She coughed and shifted the topic: “Then you play Jingle Bells. I played it the last time I came with Xiao Gu.”
Zhou Yiran frowned subtly. He stayed silent for a moment, watching Mi Qing: “Can our topic not revolve around Xiao Gu?”
