A little foot started kicking the air, swaying back and forth.

72. A vacation for two

July 7th in the Gregorian calendar, May 20th in the lunar calendar, is the Minor Heat.

Although it was called Lesser Heat, Gu Qing felt it was no different from the height of summer.

The scorching sun beat down on the earth, and Gu Qing suspected that the manhole covers on the road were hot enough to fry an egg.

Su Xiyue found this statement quite novel.

Just like those boys in her past life who liked to fry cow dung, Su Xiyue's eyes sparkled as she took an egg from the refrigerator and ran out.

A moment later, the girl rushed into the room, covered in sweat, and stood under the air conditioner vent, pulling down her collar to let the cold air in.

Seeing this scene, Gu Qing unconsciously thought of the fresh milk refrigerated in the refrigerator.

A few minutes later, the girl carrying the chilled fresh milk walked up to Gu Qing and said excitedly:

"Gu Qing, are you serious? You really can fry an egg on a manhole cover!"

Seeing Su Xiyue's curious expression, Gu Qing couldn't help but put one hand to his forehead.

Having lost a fresh egg, he had no choice but to use the remaining eggs in his lunch to prevent someone from wasting them on a whim.

Since the start of the holiday, Su Xiyue and Gu Qing have suddenly had a lot more time alone together.

While Gu Qing was studying materials in his bedroom, the girl would occasionally knock on his door with iced drinks or ice cream.

At first, Gu Qing would refuse, as he didn't like eating fancy things.

Su Xiyue didn't press the matter and quickly left Gu Qing's room.

Later, Su Xiyue switched to chilled cream cakes, or various small desserts and afternoon tea.

Gu Qing would occasionally accept and invite Su Xiyue to enjoy it together.

Thus, the girl was granted the opportunity to enter Gu Qing's bedroom and spend time alone with him at close range.

Recently, Su Xiyue taught herself how to make fruit salad and fruit smoothies.

He always brought his own works to ask Gu Qing for her opinion.

Thinking of the girl diligently studying video tutorials in the kitchen, Gu Qing couldn't bear to dampen her enthusiasm.

They always try it out and then give a serious review.

Perhaps Su Xiyue really does have some talent in this area, because she is doing it quite well now.

However, when it comes to learning talent, driving is the skill that progresses the fastest.

Just yesterday, the girl passed her driving test (Part 3) with ease.

This also means that as long as Su Xiyue prepares seriously for the final theory test (subject four), she will be able to officially obtain her driver's license.

It has to be said that this speed was much faster than Gu Qing had expected.

While a large part of the credit goes to the sycophantic driving instructor who always managed to get Su Xiyue tested immediately without having to wait in line.

However, Su Xiyue's driving talent and enthusiasm for learning must also be acknowledged.

After all, in this sweltering heat, Gu Qing didn't even want to leave the house, let alone practice driving at the driving school.

It's currently the Lesser Heat solar term, and Su Xiyue has already contacted a resort. She and Gu Qing will go there together, and the trip will last about three days.

"The resorts in Ciyang County, huh? They're alright."

After hearing about Su Xiyue and Gu Qing's vacation destination, Su Changqin gave her evaluation and further stated:

"If possible, there is also a red-crowned crane wetland ecological reserve nearby. Qingqing and Xiyue can go and take a look if they like."

After speaking, Su Changqin waved her hand and specially approved a five-figure sum for tourism expenses, which she then entrusted to Gu Qing for management.

Gu Qing did not refuse.

He had already realized that perhaps it was because of his mature and steady way of doing things that Su Changqin was unable to experience the joy of spoiling her son.

Therefore, Su Changqin had to find a way to compensate in another aspect.

For example, Gu Qing's allowance is three times that of Su Xiyue, and his future university living expenses will also be several times that of Su Xiyue.

If Gu Qing hadn't already known that Su Changqin had a legitimate source of income, she might have already checked the disciplinary committee's hotline.

"Thank you, Mom. Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of Gu Qing!"

Su Xiyue was very much looking forward to going on a trip with Gu Qing.

This way, she will be able to spend time alone with Gu Qing relatively freely.

Moreover, traveling together is something that only couples do.

Although siblings are fine, she hasn't gotten her driver's license yet, so Gu Qing doesn't call her "sister."

Therefore, the two cannot be considered siblings.

This logic is absolutely perfect!

That evening, the two began packing their travel essentials.

As a former war correspondent, Gu Qing was no stranger to traveling, so she knew exactly what she needed to prepare.

"ID card, charger, power bank, change of clothes."

"There are also commonly used medicines and reduced food rations."

Watching Gu Qing neatly pack these things into his suitcase, Su Xiyue felt that Gu Qing had thought of everything too thoroughly.

"Why do we need to bring compressed rations? Doesn't the resort have a restaurant?"

Su Xiyue asked, puzzled.

"It's just a habit. What if something unexpected happens?"

Gu Qing thought for a moment and then gave an answer.

In reality, it's just his habit.

War correspondents typically go to the front lines of conflict, or even the battle zone.

In places where anything can happen at any time, carrying compressed rations is a normal thing to do.

Moreover, Gu Qing's master once told him that in chaotic and impoverished areas, compressed rations could not only be used as backup food, but also as currency.

"Gu Qing really thinks a lot."

Su Xiyue was at a loss for words regarding Gu Qing's cautious behavior.

I just felt that Gu Qing seemed to lack a sense of security.

It's just a few days at a resort, not a trip to some deserted area, why are we so well prepared?

The girl shook her head, puzzled but determined to take good care of Gu Qing.

Take this rare opportunity to fully demonstrate her feminine strength!

Ideally, Gu Qing would be so moved that her legs would go weak and she would fall into her arms.

Well...that's it!

Having imagined that scene, the girl nodded in self-affirmation.

……

Early the next morning.

After saying goodbye to Su Changqin and Gu Yuan, Su Xiyue and Gu Qing pulled their suitcases and boarded the car to the Ciyang County Resort.

Ciyang County belongs to Luocheng and is located 150 kilometers east of the city center, close to the coast.

To minimize transfers, the two opted for a chartered car, which would take them directly to the resort where they had already booked a hotel.

More than two hours later, the car exited the highway and began driving on the national highway.

Half an hour later, the road began to become rugged, with scattered villages scattered around.

Around 11 a.m., the car finally drove into the resort.

The hotel is located beside an artificial lake, in a lush, green depression, surrounded by blooming flowers and a quietly flowing stream.

Perhaps because it's by the sea, you can faintly smell the salty, damp scent of the sea breeze.

"finally reached!"

Su Xiyue stretched, took their luggage from the trunk, and walked into the only hotel in the resort.
