A while later, around the agreed time, Yi Qingqing got up and went out. She leaned out of the corridor and looked downstairs, and sure enough, Yun Guyuan had come downstairs to pick her up on time.
She pulled back down, took a deep breath, and silently encouraged herself: Don’t be nervous! I practiced so much last night! I can definitely do it!
She rushed down the stairs, taking two steps at a time, and ran to Yun Guyuan’s side outside the dormitory.
Guan Nanzhen, who had just come out of the tool shed with a broom in hand, looked at Yi Qingqing’s retreating figure and shook her head with a smile: “It’s so good to be young!”
“Ah Yuan, let’s take the shortcut when we go out. I want to go see the small pond in Minghe Garden again.” Yi Qingqing said calmly, but her hand on her shoulder bag strap was clenched tightly.
“Okay.” Yun Guyuan replied without asking why.
For the past month, every Sunday, she would go to different places, sometimes to the scrap station, sometimes to Minghe Garden. Yun Guyuan was already used to it.
The two of them turned onto a small path leading to Minghe Garden.
It was still early, and the path was rather secluded; there was no one else around.
“Ah Yuan.” Yi Qingqing called out, pulling him back.
“What’s wrong?” Yun Guyuan asked softly.
“Give me your right hand.” Yi Qingqing said with a perfectly measured smile, as if she were saying something utterly ordinary.
Yun Guyuan had absolute trust in her. Whatever she asked him to do, his first reaction was to do it. He stretched out his right hand, palm facing up.
Yi Qingqing held her breath, placed her left hand in his palm, grasped it, and placed it between the two of them.
She smiled sweetly at Yun Guyuan and said, “Alright, we can go now!”
After saying that, she turned around and pulled him forward, holding his hand.
Yun Guyuan felt the warm, soft touch in his hand. He felt thousands of times happier than when he was dealing with a huge business deal involving hundreds of fierce ghosts. He was so happy that he felt dizzy.
However, driven by an instinct seemingly etched into his soul, he quickly took the initiative, grasping her hand tightly in his own.
Yi Qingqing, who had barely managed to maintain her composure and dignity through countless practice sessions yesterday, worked very hard to walk steadily without falling and embarrassing herself.
What? Absolutely not taking the initiative?
He was the one who reached out his hand first, so how could it be considered that she took the initiative?
Look at his skillful hand-holding action, how quickly he took the initiative. She only gave him a slight nudge. It was definitely not her own initiative!
His hands were clearly a little cold, but the more she held them, the warmer they felt.
At such a critical moment, she still managed to muster a sliver of rationality and did not waste this rare opportunity to make contact.

She signed in three times in a row, definitely not a loss.
The pills had been upgraded again. Yi Qingqing was not surprised at all. She didn’t even bother to read the instructions carefully. Anyway, Comrade Yun and even his sign-in locations have never disappointed her.
Now she’s only curious about what that warm orange color that’s appeared in the big pill tastes like.
