Shrank to a 3-Years-Old Child Chapter 118: The Woman Beside Him
“Where are we going today?”
They ordered candied sweet potatoes. The sweet potatoes were covered in syrup and covered with long strands of sugar. Wang Shuzhi was so bored that he picked up a caramel-colored strand of sugar with chopsticks and waved it in front of Qingqing.
Just like a cat seeing a cat toy, Qingqing’s attention was immediately attracted.
Her head moved up and down, left and right as the candy threads swayed, and it was almost making a few big circles.
Unable to bear the thought of Wang Shuzhi making fun of his sister, Gu Lan frowned and slapped Wang Shuzhi away with one hand.
Caught off guard, the chopsticks fell all over the table, and the long chopsticks made a clinking sound as they hit the dishes, attracting the attention of the guests at the next table.
“I’m sorry, the child is ignorant.”
Ou Qing nodded and apologized to the guests at the next table with a cold face. Seeing that he was tall and strong and looked like someone who was not easy to mess with, the guests did not dare to say anything. They could only smile stiffly and turn their heads away as if nothing had happened.
Although their eyes were diverted, if you listened carefully, you could still hear the conversation at the next table.
“Who do you call a child?” an angry young man said.
“Come on, what you did was even more childish than Qingqing!” another slightly arrogant and sarcastic voice said.
“Qingqing, be good. Be polite when you eat. Don’t learn from this uncle and play with food and throw chopsticks like that.” The cold baritone rarely said much.
“Yeah.” There was an undisguised childishness in the delicate feminine tone; that person should be a very young girl.
After hearing this, they realized that there were some impolite guests at the next table, so they promptly withdrew their attention.
If they continue to eavesdrop, they will be ignored.
Therefore, these people did not hear the second half of Qingqing’s words.
“I’m already eight years old, I’m not as childish as Uncle Wang.”
Wang Shuzhi, who was besieged continuously, said: “…”
How did he suddenly become the enemy of the people?
Seeing Qingqing’s pure and innocent big eyes opposite him, Wang Shuzhi touched his nose guiltily.
Well, it’s all his fault for teaching the kid bad things.
Wang Shuzhi and Ou Qing, who had already guessed what Qingqing’s situation was, did not show any strange expressions. Only Gu Lan heard something different in Qingqing’s words.
Eight years old…Qingqing’s memory has grown two years older.
Following this momentum, it may not be long before his real sister will return.
Gu Lan actually didn’t quite understand what Qing Qing’s memory was like.
She possessed all the memories of her time as a child, and as memories of different ages were revived, old and new memories were mixed and intertwined. This should have been a very confusing thing, but Qingqing didn’t show any abnormality at all.
She seemed to be taking it all well.
However, it was a good thing for Qingqing that she could complete the memory transition comfortably, so Gu Lan did not intervene specifically, but just continued to observe her silently.
As long as Qingqing felt unwell, he would rush her to the hospital for emergency treatment immediately.
It is said that children nowadays are very smart, and some of them know more than adults.
It seems that Qingqing, the child ‘in the past’, is no less capable.
This was vividly demonstrated during today’s trip.
The most obvious thing is that Qingqing no longer blindly follows the arrangements made by adults and goes wherever they are told to go. She has her own ideas.
Originally, Wang Shuzhi wanted to take them to check out the ancient food street. A little further along the food street was an ancient town attraction, where they could go and experience the influence of classical culture.
Qingqing had no objection to the destination, but she had some complaints about the mode of travel.
The reason was simple: Wang Shuzhi wanted to drive his high-profile luxury car, while Qingqing simply wanted to take the sightseeing bus inside the scenic area.
I’m tired of riding in luxury cars, so I want to try this new type of car.
The two had different opinions and were of similar mental age, so neither of them was willing to give in. In the end, they could only turn around and call Gu Lan and Ou Qing, and everyone voted together to make the decision.
“I brought Qingqing out here just to play this time. She can do whatever she wants. I’ll listen to her.”
Gu Lan didn’t even hear the reason clearly and directly sided with Qingqing.
After getting one vote, Qingqing raised her chin proudly.
She is sure to win!
“Don’t be too happy too soon, Ou Qing, how do you want to play?”
Wang Shuzhi put his arm around Ou Qing’s shoulders, his tone threatening.
“Anything.”
As a result, this person chose to abstain directly.
Two to one, Wang Shuzhi lost.
After coming out of the hotel restaurant, several people went straight to the door to see the cars. Since this hotel is located inside the scenic area, it will naturally provide some necessary services.
The sightseeing car inside the scenic area is one of them.
A car can only accommodate six to eight people, and you can charter a car if you pay a little more.
Gu Lan and his friends simply paid double the price to get out of the car and asked the driver to take them for a ride.
It was a real ride. The car was driving slowly on the road, and the breeze blew in our face, bringing a refreshing coolness.
Qingqing sat near the edge, with Gu Lan next to her, and Wang Shuzhi and Ou Qing in front of her.
Wang Shuzhi had just had an argument with Qingqing, but now they were discussing going to the United States.
Which famous restaurant should I check in at the food street?
As soon as they started talking about food, the two of them hit it off immediately, and the lively atmosphere was nothing like the noisy atmosphere in the hotel restaurant just now.
Gu Lan sighed tiredly, feeling as if he was taking two children out by himself.
That was why he had disagreed with Wang Shuzhi coming along in the morning. But in the end, he couldn’t stand the man being too enthusiastic. He came over on his own and it was difficult to chase him away.
“What are you looking at?” In the middle of the conversation, Wang Shuzhi noticed that Ou Qing was staring at his phone, not knowing what he was doing, and asked curiously.
“Some people said they felt a faint vibration this morning.” Ou Qing held up his cell phone to show Wang Shuzhi.
The above is a post from a local in City G. He said that he felt the ground shaking when he was lying in bed in the morning and was worried that it was an earthquake or something.
Many people posted comments below, and most of them said they didn’t feel anything. They guessed that maybe someone was renovating next door to the poster, or that it was just his illusion.
A small number of people thought that the poster was exaggerating and that his words were ironic. Some weird people even rushed in and cursed others indiscriminately, without even knowing to read the content before commenting. Naturally, they were ridiculed by the group.
This resulted in a small-scale verbal fight.
Only a few people said they also felt a faint vibration, but the feeling was too slight for them to be sure.
The comments of these people are like a few drops of water in the vast ocean. They fall down without even causing a small ripple and are drowned.
Wang Shuzhi took a quick look and naturally did not see those comments. He also thought that this might be the poster’s illusion.
Patting Ou Qing on the shoulder, he smiled carelessly and said, “Don’t worry. If there really was an earthquake, how could the higher-ups not issue a notice?”
“Yeah.” Ou Qing stared directly at the lake outside with cold eyes.
The calm lake was as clear as jade, with the water rippling slightly. Everything seemed peaceful and tranquil. Perhaps he was overthinking it.
Who would believe anything just because of a few words on the Internet?
“Little bird.” Qingqing was originally looking at the scenery when her sight was suddenly attracted by a familiar little figure.
She waved outside with a smile and greeted him in a friendly manner.
Gu Lan turned his head when he heard the voice, mainly because the word “little bird” caught his attention.
However, after seeing flocks of birds on the treetops outside, he looked away without interest.
After strolling through the food court, they went to the ancient town.
It was still early when they came out, so Wang Shuzhi enthusiastically suggested going to see the famous ancient temple in the area.
G City has preserved many ancient buildings.
It has an extremely rich history and culture, and some of its historical sites are even included in textbooks and become test points for students of a certain grade.
Wang Shuzhi is filming a costume drama this time, and the crew specially decided to set the filming location in G City just to shoot here.
Before leaving, his agent gave him the script, itinerary, and a travel guide.
It’s easy to imagine that this overly lively person would take advantage of every opportunity to go out and play.
Instead of letting him run around, it is better to plan for him first.
This way, at least if the person is gone, you can still look for him purposefully.
That’s why Wang Shuzhi seems so familiar with G City. Just ask him and you’ll know where the delicious food and fun things are.
The ancient temple is on the hillside, not very high.
It only takes about twenty minutes to get to the destination by taking a car to the foot of the mountain and then climbing up. There is an amusement project on the mountain where they can slide down the hillside slide directly without having to walk so hard.
This hillside slide is just a longer slide. The difference from ordinary slides is that it is built on a hill, which makes it more fun to play on.
Qingqing was not interested in the ancient temple, but she was successfully attracted by the slide.
So she was the second person who agreed to go to the ancient temple. Since she agreed, Gu Lan would naturally not disagree. Ou Qing was too lazy to think about it and just abstained.
Equivalent to unanimous approval.
The four of them set off, and Qingqing even made a video call with Fu Heng on the way.
“Fu Heng.” Qingqing happily waved at Fu Heng, who was wearing a high-end suit and was obviously sitting in a high-end restaurant opposite her.
“Qingqing, are you having fun?” Upon seeing Qingqing, the look in Fu Heng’s eyes softened a lot.
“Yeah, I’m so happy!” Qingqing kept nodding and enthusiastically talked to Fu Heng about the past two days.
They were all trivial matters, but Fu Heng listened with great interest and did not feel impatient at all.
The two were chatting happily when a lazy, low, smoky voice interrupted them leisurely: “I understand that Chairman Fu misses his wife, but shouldn’t you talk to me about our relationship first?”
Qingqing was stunned. Although the person’s voice had a unique hoarseness, she could still tell that it was a female.
Is Fu Heng having dinner with a woman?
Two people alone?
She felt inexplicably uncomfortable, as if someone had taken away her favorite toy.
Qingqing puffed up her cheeks and glared, “Who are you having dinner with?”
You can tell from her tone that she is unhappy.
“I…zzzz…”
Fu Heng’s words disappeared.
The screen is frozen.
Qingqing shook the phone curiously, but found that there was still no response.
She was a little confused and could only ask the owner of the phone for help: “Brother, it’s broken.”
“Broken?” Gu Lan took the phone from Qingqing and checked it. “It’s fine, there’s just no signal. Maybe the signal is not good in the mountains.”
This is a very normal thing.
“But I haven’t finished talking to Fu Heng yet.”
Qingqing was still thinking about the woman’s voice she had just heard.
She didn’t understand why she cared so much about this matter, but she was instinctively alert.
It’s like a dragon guarding a treasure, worried that someone will steal her treasure.
Everyone looks like a suspect.
