Rebirth: Growing Up Together

Xu Cheng was sitting next to her, moved closer, turned the camera over, and made a scissors hand gesture towards the camera.

My finger pressed the shutter button and there was a click.

"Let's see how the photo goes?"

He pushed the camera over and Yu Yu took it in a daze.

"Why, why is it a group photo?"

"Can't we record it together?"

Yu Yu puffed out her lips but said nothing.

It's OK...

But she can only keep these photos for herself.

"I'll take another photo for you later. Are you satisfied with this one?"

"You look pretty, you look photogenic, I look a little silly..."

Yu Yu felt that she looked too dull in the photo, as if she was forced to pose in that position unwillingly.

"Then take another photo?"

"Goodbye, I, I am not born to be photographed..."

"How can you say that? You will get used to it after taking a few shots. And it should be your expression that is unnatural. I will take a chance to secretly take a photo of you. The unprepared look in the photo will actually look better."

"what?"

The girl's face flushed slightly.

How could someone blatantly say: I'm going to take a secret photo of you.

This is too strange!

They got off the cable car and walked up the mountain.

Ever since Yu Yu found out that Xu Cheng wanted to take secret photos of her, the word "unnatural" seemed to be written all over her body.

Every time Xu Cheng picks up the camera, it seems like he is about to press a button.

Yu Yu always turned around at the first opportunity, looking at him pitifully with her beautiful peach blossom eyes, then put her two little feet tightly together, opened her mouth slightly, and had a look of embarrassment on her face.

It seems to be saying: Don't do this~

Xu Cheng tried several times, but the results were not good, so he had to give up taking secret photos.

The scenery along the way is very nice, with winding valleys and clouds and mist. From time to time, you can see several thousand-year-old temples with yellow walls and black tiles and a quiet environment.

"Take a rest here for a while."

Xu Cheng brushed the dust off the stone and sat down on it. Yu Yu also sat down, but his little butt only covered one edge.

The higher they climbed, the colder it became. The girl pulled her coat closer to her and looked at Xu Cheng.

"Aren't you going to look for Aunt He and Uncle Xu?"

The two of them had long since separated from Xu Jianghe's group, and the tour group that had originally been there turned into a two-person tour.

"We're taking the same route anyway, so we can just wait for them at the bottom of the mountain. If we can't find them, we still have our cell phone."

Now that he said that, she wasn't too worried. He always arranged everything well, and all she had to do since she was a child was to follow him.

Because Xu Cheng and his team took the route to the back of the mountain, the top of the mountain was relatively flat, with many hotels and restaurants, as well as a number of small stalls doing business here, selling candy men, cold noodles, instant noodles, and beverages.

"Would you like something to eat?"

Yu Yu was panting. She was very cold and hungry, and wanted to eat something to replenish her strength.

I was about to agree, but when I took a look at the prices of the things here... I was horrified.

"Xu Cheng, what kind of instant noodles is this for 25 yuan..."

"Oh, it's the kind sold outside for five dollars."

"What about the five-dollar bottle of mineral water?"

"It's the ice dew outside for one dollar."

After hearing this, the money-loving Yu Yu said he would not eat anything no matter how Xu Cheng tried to persuade him.

However, they brought a bucket of noodles in their bags and spent money to buy some hot water to soak them. There was also ham in their bags, so each of them had one.

"Handsome guy, pretty girl, would you like a portrait? Purely hand-painted portrait."

The two were eating with buckets of instant noodles when a middle-aged man who looked like an artist came over and asked them, holding a paintbrush.

Although Xu Cheng is an outsider, I took a look at the works he displayed and felt that they were pretty good. It would be quite commemorative if I could draw one.

"how much is it?"

"Sixty for one person, I want one hundred for two."

"Then draw me..."

He was just about to paint two pictures when Yu Yu suddenly pulled the corner of his clothes. She moved closer to him and spoke in a low voice.

"If it's not worth that much money, I can help you draw it."

In her opinion, this is simply a robbery! Just a casual portrait, but she wants to earn 60 per person.

Xu Cheng thought about it and said, "Uncle, can we borrow your things and paint them ourselves? I can give you money."

The middle-aged man frowned, thought about it and decided that there was no business at the moment, and he was also curious about what the girl could paint, so he agreed.

"Then you draw one and give me 10 yuan as a fee."

"Row."

After the matter was settled, Yu Yu put down the bucket of noodles, sat down on the small stool, and asked Xu Cheng to sit down.

She carefully looked at every detail of Xu Cheng's cheek. While observing, her little hands were not idle either, waving them up and down.

Huh?

When did Xu Cheng become like this?

The lines of her face are sharp like a sculpture, with outstanding brow bones connected to a delicate and high nose bridge, thick eyelashes, dark and deep eyes, and light lips. She has a mixed-race look, or in layman's terms, she looks a bit Western.

The pencil lines appeared on the paper, and the middle-aged man nodded frequently.

"A little bit of Kung Fu..."

More and more tourists gathered around. Seeing such a pretty girl painting was quite eye-catching and they couldn't help but come over to take a look.

"Okay..." Yu Yu put down the paintbrush.

Xu Cheng leaned in to take a look.

"Not bad, you are indeed a professional."

Yu Yu rarely smiled, but painting has always been the area she is most proud of.

A girl nearby was attracted and wanted Yu Yu to draw a picture for her. The middle-aged man saw that the two of them were like lucky cats, attracting so many people, and immediately persuaded Yu Yu to draw some more, hoping to attract more popularity with their help.

Yu Yu glanced at Xu Cheng with a questioning look, and Xu Cheng spread his hands.

"I just need to take a break. I have no problem if you want to make some money while you're at it."

Yu Yu agreed.

Making money is what makes her happiest!

Don't ask her what the second one is, she won't tell you even if you ask.

She picked up the paintbrush again, and Xu Cheng squatted beside her and watched her patiently.

When she was painting, she looked extremely focused, as if she was the only one there. She sketched with plain ink, and the tip of her brush moved like flowing water, quietly staying in her own world.

In the distance, the sea of ​​clouds rises up, boundless, with waves and peaks.

The mountain breeze blew through her ink-black hair. She raised her little hand, tilted her head slightly to one side, and gently tucked her hair behind her ears.

Xu Cheng raised his camera and froze that moment.

She drew him and he photographed her.

I didn't stay long, I just painted four pictures and made two hundred.

The number of tourists in front of the stall suddenly increased, and the middle-aged man happily waived the processing fee he had mentioned before.

"That's great. You can make some extra money by traveling." Xu Cheng praised.

Yu Yu lowered his head embarrassedly.

She thinks this business is really good. Now everyone says that there is no future for domestic cartoonists. She thinks that if she can't afford to eat in the future, she can set up a small stall here to draw things and bring a box of instant noodles, which she also sells for 25 yuan.

Passing by the glass slide going down the mountain, many people were sitting on it, and Yu Yu tugged at the corner of Xu Cheng's clothes.

"Take that seat, Xu Cheng. I'll treat you."

"Okay."

She wanted to treat them, and Xu Cheng didn't refuse. The two of them ran to buy tickets. Xu Cheng pointed out the price reduction and encouraged Yu Yu to buy a children's ticket.

"Free for children under 1.2 meters tall, half price for those between 1.2 meters and 1.5 meters tall..."

"I, I'm not that short..."

Yu Yu protested quietly.

After buying the tickets, they waited in line for a while and then the two of them got on the slide, one in front and the other behind, Xu Cheng in front and Yu Yu behind.

The slide is similar to a slide, but it is very long.

Xu Cheng wanted to run away, but the aunt in front of him kept stopping out of fear, so he had to stop behind her.

"Auntie, you are too slow."

He was still complaining when he was suddenly kicked hard on the butt.

"???"

He looked back and saw Yu Yu blushing with embarrassment, looking into his eyes.

"I'm sorry, I didn't control my speed well..."

"..."

Seeing her say this, Xu Cheng had no choice but to turn around.

Seeing that the lady in front of him finally moved, he continued to slide down.

As a result, the girl seemed to be addicted to kicking. She would always slide down at a very fast speed and kick him hard on the butt with her little feet.

She wasn't afraid of the speed.

This is quite different from Lin Wanzhou. Lin Wanzhou is not only afraid of heights, but also dares not to play those exciting entertainment activities.

Perhaps Yu Yu, who is more introverted, likes challenges and excitement in his bones?

The scenery outside the slide is beautiful. From time to time, you can see strange pines along the way and rare birds squatting beside the trees. Enjoying the scenery along the way from here can make people feel relaxed and happy.

But Xu Cheng really couldn't muster up the interest. After being kicked on the butt by Yu Yu again, he really couldn't bear it anymore.

Even foot control enthusiasts can’t stand being kicked like this!

"Yu Yu!"

"No wonder you suddenly wanted to invite me!"

"It's a bit of a personal grudge, isn't it?"

Yu Yu's face turned red and he shook his head and waved his hands vigorously.

"No, no!"

“I really can’t control the speed.”

"sorry!"

Xu Cheng didn't know what to say. He turned around and secretly made a note of this in his heart.

Next time we play this, I’ll make sure she’s on the bottom!

And he will sprint hard...
