After staying in the capital for half a month, the two of them finally got on the plane home. The weather was the same as when they arrived, with clear skies. Bai Xiaoqi was as excited as ever, holding up the window to look at the white clouds outside.

At around six o'clock in the afternoon, the taxi stopped steadily at the entrance of the community. Not long after entering the community, I saw Anya sitting on a bench next to the artificial lake from a distance. She seemed to be holding something in her arms. It looked a bit like

It's a large basketball.

"Where are you going to greet us?"

"No, Qiqi sent me a WeChat message saying that you would be back today and that you had brought me a gift, so I just sat here holding the walnuts and waited.

Quickly take out the gift and let me see what it is. If you are not satisfied, huh..." Anya hummed twice, stretched out her hand along the head of the walnut and rubbed it to the end, "I won't return the walnut."

"Is this a walnut?"

The orange color looks like a basketball from a distance, but up close, Chen Shuo looks like a rabbit. He is preparing to spend the winter and has just raised a fat rabbit. After not seeing walnuts for more than ten days, he has become so fat.

It's like a ball, you can't even see the neck.

Bai Xiaoqi unzipped the backpack behind Chen Shuo and took out a transparent acrylic box. It was square and inside was a rabbit man with big ears, dressed in colorful clothes, like a opera singer.

"What is this?" Anya took the box in confusion. She looked around and couldn't figure out what it was, but it was quite cute.

"Master Rabbit, the capital's special mascot, can be displayed at home as an ornament." Chen Shuo explained beside him.

"Master Rabbit?"

"No, it's Mr. Rabbit." Bai Xiaoqi corrected.

"Rabbit, forget it, I'm very satisfied with the gift. You can take the walnuts away."

"Walnut, did you miss me?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaoqi picked up the cat from her lap, held it in her arms and stroked it twice.

"Meow..." Walnut meowed lazily.

"Hey, I knew you wanted to."

...

I returned home with the walnuts in my arms and closed the doors and windows when I went out. There was no dust inside or outside, but since no one had been in for half a month, the room seemed a bit cold. There was no ventilation, which made the whole room stuffy and hot.

After entering the house, changing her shoes and clothes, and turning on the air conditioner, Bai Xiaoqi sat on the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief. The soft sofa was so comfortable to sit on. It felt good to be home.

Oh, it seems that going home is not so good.

Thinking of something, her heart skipped a beat. She glanced at Chen Shuo next to her as if nothing had happened, picked up the walnuts, held them in her arms, and ran upstairs to the rooftop in her slippers.

"I'll go up and see how our flowers are doing."

"Go." Chen Shuo responded casually, minding his own business. He opened the backpacks of the two of them, took out all the clothes that should be washed, threw them into the washing machine, and then began to put them away.

Those souvenirs bought in Beijing.

I bought a lot of things in a mess, and even checked my luggage when I came back.

I bought five Lord Rabbit ornaments alone, and gave one to Anya, leaving four. Two of them were kept at home, and the rest were given to Mr. and Mrs. Chen.

This kind of thing is not suitable for giving to little tweezers. Mr. Rabbit carries such a layer of meaning, and maybe the boy will tighten his anus and think that he has thoughts about him.

So they also bought a variety of cultural and creative souvenirs, including a pair of antique glasses bought in the Forbidden City, the same style as the Yongzheng Dynasty, which was a perfect gift for the geeky man with glasses.

On the rooftop, the little wild flowers are tenacious and still blooming well. However, some flowers have withered and withered after their flowering period. The dandelions have also turned into parachutes. Some have fallen on the entire rooftop, but not in the fish pond.

"It looks like the fish ate all the dandelions that fell on the water."

Chen Shuo put away his things, walked up to the rooftop and stood by the fish pond to watch. He still held a pack of fish food in his hand. Even though he hadn't been fed for half a month, the koi fish were still alive and well, and there was no backstroke.

But it seemed that he was starving, and as soon as he scattered the fish food, all the fish swam over and joined in a group to grab it.

“Fish even eat dandelions?”

"Have you ever heard that hungry people are not selective about their food? If you are hungry, you will eat anything. If you are hungry, you will do the same. You will eat grass roots and tree bark. You will eat whatever you see."

"I'll eat you when I see you."

"It's my turn to eat you tonight, right?" Chen Shuo turned to look at her.

"..."

When Bai Xiaoqi heard this, she immediately became silent and turned around to play with the flowers and plants over there, as well as the vegetables she had planted.

After more than ten days of neglect, the leeks grew very tall again, and it was time to cut the leeks again. The garlic sprouts looked a little wilted, but it was not a big problem and they were still edible.

There was no one to take care of the tomatoes and they were not watered. The few fruits that finally came out fell into the soil and rotted. What a pity.

"How about you eat me?" Chen Shuo leaned over and said.

"...I don't want to eat." Bai Xiaoqi turned her eyes to the side and unconsciously pinched the tips of the leek leaves with her little hands, trying to calm her somewhat panicked mood.

"Didn't you just say you wanted to eat me?"

"That's... that's..."

Seeing that she was mumbling for a long time and couldn't explain why, Chen Shuo simply said: "Anyway, either I eat you, or you eat me, you choose one."

"me...."

Bai Xiaoqi pursed her lips for a long time and couldn't help glaring at him. How should she choose with this kind of question?

"Why are you staring at me? Are you trying to default on your debt again?"

"...I don't."

"How about a kiss?" After saying that, Chen Shuo stretched out his arms and hugged her into his arms. Bai Xiaoqi raised her eyes to look at him, then quickly looked away, then raised her face and closed her eyes, her long eyelashes slightly

Trembling.

But after waiting for a long time, she didn't receive a kiss from him. Instead, she heard Chen Shuo whisper in her ear: "Classmate Ah Miao."

"Um?"

"If you are not ready, we can wait a little longer until we get married."

At this point, Chen Shuo paused, raised his hand to straighten her hair on her forehead, and then asked, "Do we have to wait?"

"..."

Bai Xiaoqi opened her eyes and looked at him, opened her mouth not knowing what to say, and wanted to continue to escape, but then she thought, she would be eaten by this guy sooner or later.

But, but...

She felt that her heart was in a mess. After struggling for a long time, she simply lowered her head, pursed her lips and whispered: "I don't know."

"Do not you know?"

"Um."

Chen Shuo buried his face in her neck and took a deep breath. He leaned into her ear and asked softly: "Then let me eat you tonight, okay?"

"me..."

Warm breaths gushed into her ears, and Bai Xiaoqi suddenly felt that she was panicking again. She felt her heart beating very fast, and her face was uncontrollably stained with a layer of red.

"If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent."

"..."

Chen Shuo waited for a while and asked, "Why don't you say anything? You agreed, right?"

"Um..."

Bai Xiaoqi blushed and was silent for a long time before finally letting out a very small hum from her nose.
