"Just ask me for help with this kind of thing."

Su Xiyue gave a doting smile, her eyebrows curving like the moon from last night.

"Thank you."

Gu Qingping said it calmly, his face revealing no emotion.

Just as she turned around and walked ahead, she clenched the hem of her clothes.

Su Xiyue's secondary development has been very successful.

Both in terms of height and chest area, there has been a visible increase.

However, Gu Qing's height remained completely unchanged.

Sometimes Gu Qing even wondered if her body had been solidified.

If you don't build muscle through exercise, you can't even get a tan.

His small hands and feet were soft and pliable, which fit the world's aesthetic standards, but for him personally, they made him look somewhat weak.

"You're welcome!"

Su Xiyue was happy to be able to help Gu Qing.

Especially when she saw Gu Qing, who was a head shorter than her, she realized that with her current size, she could easily wrap her arms around the boy.

She could rest her chin on the boy's soft hair and then play with the ends of his hair with one finger.

A new drama is unfolding in the little theater of a young girl's heart.

Their life together was actually simple and unpretentious.

Considering that I won't be home for a long time, this dinner should be plentiful, but I can't make too much to avoid waste.

Gu Qing had no choice but to focus on the quality of the ingredients.

After placing a piece of M9 grade Wagyu beef, the highest grade available in the supermarket, into his shopping cart, Gu Qing entered the seafood section.

Fish, shrimp, or crab?

Since there was no pre-ordered menu, Gu Qing had to look around as she walked.

The seafood section had a strong fishy smell, and the ground was very slippery. Gu Qing frowned and looked around for a while before finally focusing on the cod.

After observing for a while, Gu Qing identified his target.

After glancing at the busy service staff, Gu Qing decided not to wait any longer, picked up the net next to her, and scooped the target out of the water tank.

As a fishing enthusiast, I naturally find landing nets very useful.

After accurately capturing the target, Gu Qing seemed to feel the joy of catching a big fish, and a charming smile appeared on his lips.

"Took the bait!"

Gu Qing's eyes gleamed, and he exerted force in his arm, intending to scoop the cod up for dinner.

Su Xiyue watched from the side without stepping forward to help, knowing that Gu Qing was enjoying some kind of pleasure.

Because it's rare to see Gu Qing's genuine smile.

It is captivating and full of contrast.

But the contrast might not only be Gu Qing, but also the cod that was served as dinner.

The moment Gu Qing scooped the cod out of the water, the cod, sensing the change in its environment, suddenly began to struggle frantically.

The immense force was instantly transmitted through the net to Gu Qing's delicate arm, triggering a chain reaction that instantly shifted Gu Qing's center of gravity.

The already slippery ground became the perfect assist, causing Gu Qing's body to tilt uncontrollably.

Su Xiyue, who had been focusing her attention on Gu Qing, naturally noticed this scene.

"careful!"

With a soft shout, Su Xiyue immediately released the shopping cart, opened her arms, and let Gu Qing fall into her embrace.

The net in Gu Qing's hand, along with the fish in it, splashed back into the fish tank.

Two wide-open eyes, peering through the glass, seemed to be looking down on this foolish human.

"Are you OK?"

Feeling the delicate body in her arms, Su Xiyue subtly touched Gu Qing's smooth and delicate arm a few times, and asked with concern.

"It's nothing, just an accident."

Gu Qing's tone was calm, but her face was slightly flushed.

On one hand, he felt somewhat embarrassed, and on the other hand, he clearly felt the softness of the girl's body.

Although he had already experienced the feel of the game at that particular time.

But feeling it again after so long still made him somewhat restless.

but……

Looking at the fish in the bathtub, Gu Qing felt as if she had some kind of karmic ties with fish in this life.

It's one thing to fail at fishing, but to have an accident while trying to catch a fish from a fish tank?

"Let me do it!"

Su Xiyue didn't take advantage of Gu Qing. After straightening his body, she picked up the net.

With a whoosh, the cod was taken out of the water and placed on the cutting board.

Gu Qing couldn't help but bite her lower lip lightly.

He can accept his physical shortcomings. After all, some people are born with disabilities or are physically weak, but in any case, these are irreversible.

But seeing Su Xiyue accomplish so easily what he couldn't, he still felt a strange sensation.

On the one hand, I despise myself, but in this world, men are naturally not as physically fit as women, so it's not so bad.

On the other hand, the moment he saw Su Xiyue complete her action, he inexplicably felt a sense of dependence, thinking that "it feels good to have someone help me."

Gu Qing knew that this was not as simple as someone helping him; rather, the dependency he developed would gradually change his mindset.

Everyone likes to be taken care of; it's an instinctive psychology that humans possess from childhood.

Gu Qing doesn't object to it, but within his capabilities, he hopes to do things well on his own.

Long-term dependence will only erode firm beliefs.

This is something he doesn't want to see.

Stubbornness, even obstinacy, is also one of Gu Qing's personality traits.

Su Xiyue had no idea that such a small matter had made Gu Qing think so much, and even caused him to have psychological conflicts.

After she put the prepared fish into the shopping cart, she saw Gu Qing standing there blankly.

"Gu Qing, what's wrong? Were you scared just now?"

Su Xiyue grasped the boy's slender wrist with some concern and gently shook it.

"It's nothing, I was just thinking about something."

Gu Qing smiled slightly as her thoughts returned to reality.

He suddenly remembered, whether it was the villa in Los Angeles or the rented apartment in Nanjing.

It seems that Su Xiyue is the one who cleans up the kitchen trash every time he cooks.

Over time, he developed a habit.

There's nothing wrong with that in itself.

only……

Gu Qing turned her head, slightly raised her chin, and looked at the profile of the girl beside her.

The cheerful but somewhat silly little girl in his eyes has unknowingly grown up.

Whether it's her physique or her delicate face, she retains a touch of youthful innocence, but the rest transforms into a uniquely feminine charm.

"You've grown up..."

Gu Qing sighed deeply.

117. Does moving your tongue not count as lowering your mouth?

"Gu Qing."

Walking home, Su Xiyue, carrying bags in both hands, suddenly spoke up.

Gu Qing paused, turned her head and looked up, her gaze lingering on the beads of sweat on the girl's forehead that were almost sliding into her eyes.

"I see."

Gu Qing took out a tissue from his pocket and gently wiped away the sweat from Su Xiyue's forehead.

The items weren't actually heavy; Su Xiyue wasn't sweating from exhaustion, but from heat.
