"Xinxin, be good. Let's go to sleep, okay?”Liu Qing gently placed his precious daughter on the bed, then reached out to pull the air conditioner blanket over and gently covered her.
Liu Qing's daughter, Liu Xin, had just turned three years old this year. Her voice was still childish, but she had just taken a shower and blow-dried her hair. The little girl was jumping around and was not sleepy at all.
The little fellow kicked the blanket off his body with his chubby little legs. He widened his watery eyes and said in a childish voice," Daddi, Xinxin can't sleep."
"But if you don't sleep now, what if you can't get up tomorrow and you're late for school?”Liu Qing pretended to be serious.
"Didn't your teacher say that good students should go to bed early and get up early to develop good habits?" Liu Qing continued.”
"That's right. Teacher Tutu seems to have said that good babies should sleep early and wake up early.”When the three-year-old Liu Xin heard her father say this, she suddenly remembered that her teacher had said this before. She immediately pulled the blanket over herself.
Then, he closed his eyes and went to sleep obediently.
Liu Qing nodded in satisfaction.
How could a three-year-old child be coaxed to sleep so easily? Liu Xin's eyelids were still trembling slightly. It was obvious that she did not want to sleep.
"Alright, alright. I won't force you to sleep anymore. Stop pretending to be asleep.”Liu Qing, who was sitting by the bed, couldn't help but laugh when he saw how cute Bao 'er's daughter was pretending to be asleep. He quickly tried to persuade her.
"Really?" Liu Xin, who was not sleepy to begin with, suddenly opened his sparkling eyes and said in disbelief.
"Of course it's true." Liu Qing patted Liu Xin's head dotingly.
" Papa, Xinxin wants to eat watermelon." Suddenly, the three-year-old Liu Xin whispered.
"Watermelon? Hmm?" When Liu Qing heard that, he was stunned. Then, he came back to his senses and asked,"Why does Xinxin suddenly want to eat watermelon?”
"Because Wang Le's family next door bought a big watermelon today.”Liu Xin explained slowly. Then, he stretched out his chubby and tender hand and drew the size of a watermelon in the air.
Wang Le was about the same age as Liu Xin. He was one of Liu Xin's few friends in the same neighborhood and lived in the third building next door.
"Also, Papa, you haven't bought fruit for a long time.”Liu Xin's tender voice sounded very depressed.
"Xinxin, be good. Daddy will buy you watermelons tomorrow.”Liu Qing looked at his precious daughter's depressed expression and felt his heart ache. He quickly comforted her.
Liu Qinggang carefully recalled that he had not bought any fruits for almost two months. He had neglected his duty as a nanny.
"Really?" When Liu Xin, who was originally in a low mood, heard this, his eyes immediately lit up. His face was filled with hope as he looked at Liu Qing.
"Of course it's true. How could Papa lie?”Liu Qing nodded with certainty." Not only that, Daddy also wants to buy a watermelon bigger than the one Wang Le's family bought."”
As he spoke, Liu Qing gestured an oval that was several times larger than Liu Xin's.
"Yay, Daddi is so good." After hearing Liu Qing's words, Liu Xin, who was full of smiles, hung on Liu Qing's body like a monkey and cheered.
"Alright, alright." Liu Qing quickly put his precious daughter down on the bed and covered her with the blanket.""Darling, be good. Let's go to sleep, okay?”
"Yes, alright." Liu Xin, who had received her father's promise, closed her eyes in satisfaction."Goodnight, Papa!"
"Good night."
Liu Qing turned off the lights and left her daughter's room.
……
……
When he arrived at his own room, it was actually the living room. After all, his daughter was gradually growing up and should have her own space. Therefore, when Liu Xin was two years old, Liu Qing gritted his teeth and changed to a small apartment. His daughter lived in the bedroom, and he lived on the sofa in the living room.
However, Liu Qing didn't rest when he came to the living room. Instead, he quickly changed into a yellow T-shirt with Meituan's takeaway advertising logo printed on the front and back.
After all, there were elders and children who needed to be taken care of. After coaxing his precious daughter to sleep every night, Liu Qing continued to work as a delivery man.
After putting on the safety helmet and putting on everything, Liu Qing closed the door and went downstairs. He went to the parking lot and rode his motorcycle. Then, he took out his phone and opened the Meituan takeaway order delivery app.
It was now nine o'clock in the evening. As an international metropolis in the east, the nightlife in Shanghai had just begun. The streets were lit up with neon lights, and it was summer, which was also the peak season for takeout orders.
Just a minute after Liu Qing opened the app, he received five or six orders for delivery. After receiving the orders, Liu Qing quickly started his motorcycle and began his busy delivery work.
Liu Qing was like a hardworking bee, shuttling through the streets and alleys of Shanghai. His T-shirt was drenched in sweat and had not dried since.
……
……
"Hey, hey, hey, little brother, do you want an antique? Good stuff, I'll give it to you at a cheap price!"
On the roadside, Liu Qing, who had just finished delivering food and was about to leave on his bike, was suddenly pulled back by a middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and ape-like cheeks.
Liu Qing turned around and saw that it was a bald, sallow, skinny middle-aged man in his 40s who had pulled him back.
In Shanghai, Liu Qing had met many peddlers who claimed to have antiques to sell. He knew that the so-called "antiques" they sold were either fake or high-quality imitations, so he politely shook his head and refused,"Thank you, Big Brother. I'm still at work. I don't have time now, and I don't have the money to buy it.”
"Hey, don't be in a hurry to leave, little brother.”The middle-aged man saw that Liu Qing wanted to leave and hurriedly said,""You haven't seen it yet. I guarantee that you'll definitely buy it!”
As he spoke, the middle-aged man quickly showed the so-called antique to Liu Qing.
"Hmm?"
Liu Qing, who had originally planned to put on an act to deal with the middle-aged man, was immediately attracted by the antique in his hand.
It was a jade pendant shaped like a chili pepper. It was white and green in color and was about the size of a thumb. There were some exquisite patterns carved on it. Liu Qing was attracted to it purely because he thought that this jade pendant was beautiful.
After taking a look, Liu Qing said without batting an eyelid,""Big brother, how much is this jade pendant of yours?”
"Hehe."
Seeing Liu Qing's interest, the skinny middle-aged man chuckled and revealed his big yellow teeth.""Little brother, let me tell you, this is a real antique. If you like it, 800 yuan. I'll give it to you at a discount today.”
Although Liu Qing didn't know much about antiques, he knew that if it was really an antique, no one would sell it to passersby on the street.
Therefore, Liu Qing bluntly bargained,""50 yuan, big brother, are you selling?”
"What is it? 50 yuan?" When the skinny middle-aged man heard Liu Qing's bid, he jumped up high and said,""I say, little brother, aren't you bargaining too hard? You can't sell it like this even if you're going to jump off a building and have a fire sale.”
"Forget it if you don't want to sell it." Liu Qing said. He then turned around and got on his bike, preparing to leave.
"Hey, hey, why are you in such a hurry, little brother? Add some points. I'll sell it to you for 200, 200.”Seeing that Liu Qing was really about to leave, the skinny middle-aged man hurriedly shouted,“50! 50! I'm selling you, don't go!"
In the end, Liu Qing spent 50 yuan to buy the " antique " jade pendant from the middle-aged man.
After getting the jade pendant, Liu Qing played with it briefly and put it in his pocket. Then, he rode the motorcycle and continued to deliver food.
However, at this moment, a sudden clap of thunder sounded in the sky. Liu Qing's expression changed as he cried out,"
"Not good!"
