Ji Linqui fell asleep in the car.

Quietly, like a bird folding its wings and curling up against the window, he slept lightly.

Occasionally, when the car passed over gravel or a speed bump, the seat would tremble momentarily. Ji Linqui would tilt his head to adjust his posture, but his breathing remained faint and steady, like someone reluctant to get out of bed.

Jiang Wang glanced at him several times when he was driving the latter half, feeling like he had discovered a little treasure inside.

He enjoyed seeing Ji Linqui's casual demeanor.

Sometimes relaxed and tired, sometimes alert and sensitive, but always more interesting than the typical top-performing teacher.

But Ji Linqui looked too relaxed when he was asleep.

With his delicate features and fair skin, he seemed even more defenseless when he was in a light sleep, making him an easy target.

Jiang Wang could feel his mischievous impulses stirring and quietly scolded himself for two seconds.

What was he thinking all day?

He turned his gaze away, focusing again on the occasional turns of the highway ahead, his thoughts gradually drifting away.

If I really end up with Ji Linqui, should I tell my biological parents?

Strictly speaking, Du Wenjuan and Peng Jiahui are now Peng Xingwang's parents, but he has unknowingly grown close to them as family.

In any case, it's something that should be said. Even if the other party is surprised or upset, hiding it isn't his style.

But what about Xingxing?

Jiang Wang glanced at the kid in the rearview mirror, shaking his head as he listened to Jay Chou's cassette, feeling both absurd and amused.

Should I tell my childhood self that I'm in love now?

Peng Xingwang is the closest to them, so he'll probably sense something sooner or later.

It's probably best to wait until he's a bit older, maybe seventeen or eighteen, to explain it slowly.

And also to figure out how to deal with the strange issue of "my nephew looking too much like me" when he's twenty-seven or twenty-eight.

When Ji Linqui woke up, it was already dusk. He blinked dazedly and looked to the side.

"We'll arrive at the hotel in about eight minutes," Jiang Wang said mischievously, icing his cheek with a Coke can. "Are you awake?"

Ji Linqui let out a soft sigh and caught the Coke can icing his neck.

Jiang Wang pretended to be affected: "Hey hey, I'm driving!"

They got up early on Saturday, arriving at the Yuhang amusement park ticket gate at seven-thirty, and entered exactly at eight o'clock, the first batch.

The timing was perfect. With the all-inclusive ticket in hand, everything was free to play, and with fewer people, they could enjoy their favorite rides several times over.

Many rides had a strict height requirement of one meter forty for children to enter, but thankfully Peng Xingwang had grown quickly in the past six months, just reaching one meter thirty-eight.
