"Do you live in this kind of place now?"

"Just a temporary residence."

Circling upwards in the darkened corridor.On the right is a mottled gray wall with green hairs.The edge of the stairs has become potholes due to years of walking, and even the corridor lights are always on and off.

Mu Ning led the way and welcomed the two teenagers in vests and shorts back to their residence.

702 is the top floor of this room.She currently lives alone on this floor, and the 701 opposite is empty.

Qi Ya, who was walking behind Mu Ning and Xiao Jie, held his head. The dark environment did not affect his vision. He walked upstairs leisurely while observing the old residential building.

To live in such a place...

Blinking his bright ice-blue eyes, Qi Ya jumped up two steps to the 7th floor and followed Xiaojie into the house.

"Hey——the room is quite clean and bright." Qi Ya said lazily.

"Well, I only rented it if it was bright enough. Sit casually, and there are drinks in the refrigerator."

Qi Ya and Xiaojie observed the interior decoration together, Qi Ya changed his shoes and walked into the house.

"Click." Xiaojie closed the door.

On the other side, Mu Ning went to the bedroom to get the medicine box.She sprayed the anti-swelling spray on her face, looked at the swollen red face in the mirror, and looked at Qi Ya who ran to the kitchen to get a drink.

"I didn't expect to learn to slap you after not seeing you for a few years." She said in a dissatisfied tone.

"Boom—bah!"

Qi Ya, who was wearing a white vest and blue boxers, opened a can of Coke.Hearing Mu Ning's words, his eyes shifted from the surging Coke.Looking back, he raised his eyebrows: "So, shouldn't I be angry? Do you know how I survived these years?"

When he said this, the child's eyes seemed to be about to shed tears for a moment.Mu Ning looked at Qi Ya like that, no matter how many sophistry he choked back into his stomach.

So many years of experience in watching people let her know that Qi Ya's loneliness is not just a faux pas.

"It's time to hit..." She continued to clean the wound on her body, whispering.

At this time, Qi Ya calmly came over with a drink.He put another can of unopened iced drink on Mu Ning's swollen face, and carefully applied ice compresses for her.

"Okay. This look really doesn't look like you. In short, I have forgiven you. No matter what reason you cheated to death, why didn't you tell me earlier, I will not pursue these further. Besides, compared to those, What's more important now is-"

He softened his eyes.

"It's great to see you again..."

The haze attached to the heart is like the warm sunshine shining in, and all the negative emotions are melted into the hotness, and there is nothing left.

My heart felt warm, as if it was being filled again by something.

Qi Ya: It's great to be back...

Mu Ning stared blankly at the little boy in front of him who was earnestly applying ice packs to reduce swelling.Missing the years of his growth, his facial features were stained with signs of maturity, without the baby fat of his childhood, his brows were actually a little more stable.

This is 12-year-old Qi Ya, not the 6-year-old she knew.This kind of understanding made Mu Ning feel a little strange in his heart.

"What's your look?"

Although Mu Ning's eyes were dark, Qi Ya, who was sensitive to human emotions, still noticed something was wrong.He curled his lips in dissatisfaction, and hit Mu Ning with a head-scratching blow.

"..."

With the red mark on her forehead, she suddenly had a feeling that the identities of mother and son were reversed.

Then, without saying a word, she snatched the Coke from the little stinky boy's hand and drank it down.

"Hey!" Qi Ya raised his eyebrows.

At this time, Xiaojie approached the two of them with jelly: "Qi Ya, this jelly tastes super..."

Mu Ning grabbed the jelly and threw it into his mouth.

Xiaojie has peasy eyes.

Qi Ya: "...Tsk, childish."

Several years of estrangement and unconvincing explanations were eliminated by Qi Ya's forgiveness.In the evening, Mu Ning took the two children to the supermarket to buy vegetables, and the three of them ate hot pot at the table in the rental house, chatting until late at night before falling asleep.

The two children who slept poorly moved the coffee table and made a floor in the living room.And Mu Ning was on the small bed in the bedroom, having a rare good sleep without dreams.

The three of them fell asleep smiling, and woke up smiling again the next morning.

"Then, Xiaojie and I are going to play a game, and we will play with you in a few days."

Qi Ya tugged at the vest that was wrinkled from sleeping, and Xiaojie and Xiaojie each held a deep-fried dough stick, eating while walking towards the door.

"Well, I just wrote Xiaojie's palm in my cell phone number, call me if you need something."

Qi Ya, who was changing shoes, took Xiaojie's hand in an instant, looked at the string of numbers on the palm of his hand, and frowned.

Qi Ya: Why didn't you write it on my hand......!

The murderous intent seemed to condense into substance.Xiaojie retracted his hand but did not retract.He looked at his friend's bulging face like a big bun, and smiled dryly with sweat dripping: "How about... I'll write another number for Qi Ya?"

"Snapped!"

Putting his hands down, Qi Ya put his hands in his pockets and went out.

"Who asked you to write..." he muttered.

"Click." The sound of closing the door.

After the two children left, the room returned to silence, and in the corridor outside the door, their laughter changed from close to far away.

Sitting at the dining table and having breakfast, Mu Ning drank the soy milk in the bowl in one gulp, his smile was a little more real and a little silly.

There is no pressure at all, really... I haven't been this happy for a long time.

Seven days later, the rooftops of old residential buildings.

Mu Ning put on yellow rubber gloves and rain boots, pressed the switch of the high-pressure water gun, and washed the roof covered with dirty moss.

Today, she is going to manually transform here.

The first is to rinse the entire roof with water, spray foam and then scrub with a brush.

"Qi Ya, if you don't call, wouldn't it be in vain if Mu Ning wasn't at home?"

Downstairs, two teenagers in shorts walked into the corridor.

"Stay tape (it's okay), if she's not at home, we'll share the pizza." The silver-haired teenager was carrying three boxes of [-]-inch pizza, and waved his hand nonchalantly when he heard what his friend said.

"Eh—? Didn't you say that she loves that pizza and bought it specially?"

The silver-haired boy raised his chin and frowned: "Nah! If she's not at home, the pizza will be dry and hard by tomorrow!"

"Uh, yes."

The two jumped up to the seventh floor.

"Boom boom boom!"

While Mu Ning was flushing the roof, there was a knock on the door downstairs.

Mu Ning tilted his head: Huh?

She turned off the high-pressure water gun and walked to the iron gate of the rooftop.

"Boom boom boom!"

There was indeed a knock on the door below.

"Qi Ya...it seems that he is really not at home."

Downstairs, Xiaojie's voice could be faintly heard.

"Damn it!" Qi Ya seemed to be in a bad mood and kicked the door, and then said, "There is no other way, we can only go to the rooftop to eat pizza."

"Crench."

Mu Ning, who was on the roof, opened the door: "Here it is. You two come up."

A gust of wind blew by, and the silver-haired kid appeared in front of Mu Ning carrying a three-layer pizza box.

"What, so you are here."

He poked his head, glanced at the gap between the door and Mu Ning, looked at the mud and dirt on the ground, and had a guess in his heart: "Hey, you also want to change the rented house?"

"Well, it's been rented for half a year. I plan to transform the rooftop into a place for entertainment and viewing."

Xiaojie raised his hand with bright eyes: "Sister! Qi Ya and I happen to be fine today, so we can stay and help you!"

"Huh? Okay. We'll have pizza for a while, and we'll have a barbecue on the rooftop at night."

"Yeah!" Xiaojie jumped up.

Qi Ya at the side looked at Xiaojie, then at Mu Ning, and put his hands on his hips helplessly: "Well, I really can't help you, so I'll help you as much as I can."

What responded to him was a long-stemmed brush.

"Then Xiaojie is in charge of spraying foam, and Qi Ya is in charge of brushing."

"Ah." Putting the pizza box in the corridor, Qi Ya walked up to the rooftop.

10 minutes later--

The energetic two children staged a chase on the rooftop.

Xiaojie was running backwards on the rooftop, the two small jugs in his hands were constantly spraying out foam.

"Clap clap clap!"

Loud footsteps sounded, and Qi Ya pushed the ground with a brush to chase after Xiaojie.

"Wow wow wow!!!"

Then the two children who didn't brake the brakes fell from the seventh-floor roof.

"Hey!"

Even though he knew that nothing would happen to the two of them, Mu Ning threw the high-pressure water gun and rushed to the edge of the railing.

After the two children quickly landed and stood firm, they rushed into the corridor again.

"Xiaojie! Do it again!"

"no problem!"

When the two children returned to the rooftop, their eyes sparkled, obviously having a great time.

At night, the cleaned-up roof was covered with carpets, tents were set up, and sofas were set up.

Mu Ning stood by the oven and lit the coals.The two children were lying on the carpet in the tent, their faces full of happiness.

"Qi Ya—"

"what?"

Xiaojie turned to look at his good friend.

"Qi Ya likes that sister very much, right?"

"Uh." Qi Ya's breathing paused, then he turned his head with a blushing face, "Who would like to cheat for so many years?"

"Anyway, Qi Ya feels very happy now."

Xiaojie's blunt words made Qi Ya stop talking.He lay on the long-haired carpet, tilted his head and looked at Mu Ning who was starting to barbecue in the distance, the depths of his eyes were like the bright starry sky in the dark night.

Like it……

what.
