After half a lifetime of navigating the world, the system tells me to be a good big brother!

They've already worked all afternoon; it's a bit inhumane to ask them to cook for themselves again.

So it's better to eat out, and this time is just right for dinner.

Li Qing grabbed Lin Xia's hand and added a slightly teasing remark.

"Can your body handle it? If it really can't, we'll just order takeout!"

Lin Xia rolled her eyes at Li Qing's teasing and turned to look for clothes in the closet.

Before long, several dresses were laid out on the bed, and Li Qing didn't sit idle either, casually changing her clothes.

While getting dressed, he was also thinking about what to eat later, and, unsure, he asked Lin Xia.

"Think about what you want to eat later? Once you've decided, let's go straight there. I'm really hungry."

When he asked her that question, Lin Xia kept thinking about it while changing her clothes.

"I saw on WeChat Moments the other day that a seafood buffet just opened near Xingguang Plaza. How about we go try it?"

Li Qing was delighted to hear this; he finally didn't have to worry about what to eat.

"Okay, let's go to Starlight then." Li Qing looked at Lin Xia, who had already helped him put on a dress, and then hesitated before adding, "It's about three kilometers to Starlight, and this dress won't be comfortable for a motorcycle ride!"

Lin Xia thought about it carefully and realized it was true. She turned around and rolled her eyes at Li Qing again, then took off her skirt and changed into a pair of jeans.

"It's all your fault! Why did you have to ride that motorcycle today? Now I can't wear a pretty dress!"

He complained to Li Qing, changed his clothes, and went to the bathroom, while Li Qing replied quietly.

"Gas prices have gone up again, it's 18 liters a mile! It's a bit painful to drive like that! Motorcycles are much more economical."

"If you ask me, you should sell that piece of junk; it's almost as big as me!"

The two chatted as they tidied up.

Li Qing quickly got ready, wearing a black stretch vest, a brown waxed jacket over it, cargo pants, and a pair of red-winged shoes. He also carried an F-91W small cube on his hand, with a simple and neat appearance.

A moment later, Lin Xia also came out of the bathroom, wearing a white chiffon blouse with the hem tucked into her tight jeans.

A platinum bracelet draped over her wrist, and a pair of black high-heeled sandals made her legs look straight and long.

Coupled with her impressive bust, she looks incredibly alluring.

The two of them, having finished getting ready, went out together and slowly walked down from the old apartment building.

The place Li Qing is living in now was bought with the money he earned while working for Brother Dong.

The staff housing built by the county flour factory in 1996 has a three-bedroom, one-living room layout, a total area of ​​76 square meters, and five floors, so there is no elevator.

Compared to the elevator buildings that are popular now, these buildings are simply incomparable; they are now collectively referred to as old, dilapidated, and small.

Li Qing had considered moving to another place, but firstly, he didn't have any spare money; secondly, housing prices had risen too fast in recent years; and thirdly, he was still waiting for relocation.

There have been rumors of relocation for three years, but so much time has passed and there has been no progress.

Moreover, the county's No. 1 Experimental Primary School is just a wall away, making it an excellent location, which Li Qing is reluctant to sell.

And so he and Lin Xia lived here for almost ten years.

They rode their bikes all the way to Star Plaza and went straight to the newly opened seafood buffet restaurant.

As soon as he walked in, he started looking at the restaurant's decor, and he already had a general idea of ​​what to expect. If he hadn't just won 250,000 yuan in cash, he really wouldn't have been willing to come and eat here.

Lin Xia put her arm around him and walked quickly to the front desk before whispering something in his ear.

"Since you just made me feel so comfortable, this meal's on me. Consider it my way of paying for the meal!"

Li Qing rolled her eyes and thought to herself, "When have I ever paid for a meal with you two?"

Although he thought that to himself, he still answered cooperatively.

"Thank you, rich lady, for giving me this opportunity!"

The situation was already quite ambiguous, and his words made Lin Xia blush even more.

The two whispered to each other as they were led inside to sit down by the waiter.

The two sat down close together and ordered food together on the tablet.

"I see this braised beef is unlimited, give me three; these black tiger prawns, give me ten; and this..."

Lin Xia kept turning the plants over, while he directed them from the side; the two worked together very well.

After ordering, Li Qing got up and sat down opposite him.

While waiting for their food, Lin Xia started chatting with him.

"I went to the waterfront town yesterday morning. Your mom said you should go back there when you have time."

After listening to her, Li Qing fell silent. The waterfront town was the neighborhood where his parents now lived.

He didn't have any conflicts with his parents. So many years have passed that they're over, and besides, the reasons are all his fault.

Mainly because he was young then, his parents couldn't control him, and he was still a scoundrel, so he didn't have the face to go back.

It wasn't until he started doing something on his own that things improved between him and his family, but he still felt a bit embarrassed because he hadn't achieved much.

Lin Xia, as a woman, served as a mediator between him and his parents, perfectly playing the role of a daughter-in-law.

After a long silence, he finally spoke, looking at Lin Xia and asking.

"Where's the old man? He didn't say anything this time, did he?"

"Uncle Li didn't say anything, he was just ordered by your mom to call the butcher shop, hahaha..."

Lin Xia couldn't help but laugh as she recalled the scene.

"Alright, let's go back this weekend!"

"If you ask me, you should go back more often. You've focused on making money these past few years and haven't been messing around. Uncle Li can't keep nagging you."

"My son and I are just rebellious; he doesn't like me, and I don't want to be lectured..."

The two were talking, and Li Qing hadn't finished speaking when he was suddenly interrupted by a shoe that flew out of nowhere.

The shoes were children's size, probably for a seven or eight-year-old boy, and they had fallen onto the table between the two of them.

He was talking to Lin Xia with his hands on the table, and his shoes were even closer to his nose.

At such close range, he could naturally smell the scent emanating from the shoes.

He has always had a fiery temper, and although he has matured and toned it down a lot in recent years, he still couldn't help but start cursing.

"Damn it, which idiot threw this at us? Are they tired of living?!"

The bustling restaurant fell silent at his angry outburst, and everyone who was dining turned to look at Li Qing.

In the midst of this silence, a boy's voice kept speaking, which seemed extremely abrupt.

Li Qing also turned to look at the direction from which the child's voice came from, and the other people eating there, seeing this situation, understood Li Qing's angry outburst to some extent.

If it were them, they might react the same way as Li Qing.

After all, no one would expect to be happily eating with family and friends when suddenly a smelly shoe hits the table.

After Li Qing finished cursing, he was drawn to the light screen that reappeared in front of him.

[Task: As successors of socialism, we should possess good qualities. Please guide and correct the behavior of the little boy who was causing trouble in the restaurant as soon as possible.]
