Horse Girl, Your Friend is Fighting Her Way Out of the Horse Racing Track

"will not."

Poetry and wine paused, and a thoughtful expression appeared on their faces.

The black-haired girl pretended to put her hand on her chin in thought, then spoke softly.

"not bad."

Lingzuan Qibao smiled and looked at Shi Yujiu beside him.

……

The second-floor lounge area had several rows of benches and vending machines. Lingzuan Qibao bought two bottles of warm lemon black tea and handed one to Shiyujiu.

"The trainer said we should take vitamin C supplements after the competition."

She made up an excuse.

I took the poem and the wine, my fingertips touching the bottle, the temperature was just right.

At that moment, an announcement came over the loudspeaker, reminding the audience that the 14:10 PM show could now enter.

The doors to the domed hall were pushed open, and a rush of cold air rushed out.

The hall was dark, with only the green light from the emergency exit and the faint starlight from the dome.

The staff used flashlights to guide them to their seats, which were two deck chairs at the back with a great view.

The two lie down side by side, and the armrest between them can be lowered.

Lingzuan Qibao first tried putting it down and found that it allowed the two of them to sit very close together. She then quietly raised it up a little, leaving a gap just big enough for an arm to rest.

The lights went out completely.

Stars began to light up the dome, first a few sparse ones, then more and more, like someone scattering diamonds on a dark screen.

The Milky Way slowly emerged, flowing from one side of the dome to the other, with a faint purple-blue halo.

The background music is very soft string music, mixed with a little wind and the sound of distant tides.

The guide's gentle voice came through the surround sound system, with a slightly low tone.

"Welcome to our galactic journey. Today, we will depart from the Solar System, pass through the Orion Arm, and sail all the way to the southern shore of the Milky Way..."

Poetry and Wine's gaze fell upon the dome. Starlight reflected in her dark pupils, as if it contained the entire universe.

Diamond Treasure turned its head to the side, its light green eyes sparkling.

She asked in a low voice.

Is it pretty?

"Ah."

"What's the scenery like on the race track...?"

Poetry and Wine remained silent for a few seconds before speaking hesitantly.

"Incomparable."

The guide's voice continued to narrate over the loudspeaker.

"This is the Orion Nebula, about 1344 light-years away. New stars are being born there..."

A huge pinkish-purple nebula appeared on the dome, resembling a blooming rose.

Lingzuan Qibao let out a soft "wow," her fingers unconsciously tightening around the cuffs of the poetry and wine collection.

Instead of withdrawing his poetry and wine, he lowered the back of the recliner a little further to make his view more comfortable.

In the darkness, their hands found each other again and naturally intertwined.

Diamond Treasure's palm rested on Poetry and Wine's hand, the warmth passing through their skin.

Midway through the program, the dome switched to a more distant galaxy cluster.

The guide's voice became even softer, as if telling a bedtime story.

"The universe is vast, so vast that we could never reach any star in our lifetime. But that's why when we look up, we feel... that we are not alone."

Poetry and Wine's eyelashes trembled slightly.

She suddenly remembered that when she was a child in the orphanage, she would sometimes count stars by herself.

At that time, she felt that the stars were far away and cold, things that could never be touched.

And now, there is someone else beside her watching the same stars.

Diamond Treasure's fingers twitched, and she wrote a very light word in her palm.

Poetry and wine bowed their heads; though they couldn't see clearly, she could roughly make out that it was a Chinese character.

"liquor".

She turned around and used her index finger to write "Miracle" on the palm of the Diamond Treasure.

They both chuckled softly at the same time, their voices so quiet that only the other person could hear them.

As the program neared its end, a line of scrolling text appeared on the dome:

May you see your star when you look up on your way home tonight.

The lights gradually came on, the starry sky faded, and the dome returned to its ordinary gray arch.

The audience members gradually stood up, and the chairs creaked slightly.

The Diamond Treasure did not immediately rise.

She turned to the side, looking tenderly at Poetry and Wine with her light green eyes, and spoke softly.

"A little wine."

"Ok?"

"Thank you for coming with me today."

Poetry and wine looked into her eyes with equal gentleness.

Under the newly lit lights, the silver-haired girl's eyes were filled with an emerald-like luster.

"Me too."

She paused, then added.

"The first time... I watched the stars with someone else."

Diamond Treasure's eyes lit up for a moment, then curved into crescents.

P.S.: I'm exhausted from writing this. It's too much of a struggle for someone like me who's only had one relationship, and it ended tragically.

Dark Meteor: Chapter 226 Eating

"So...will we still watch them together in the future?"

Poetry and wine did not answer immediately.

She looked up at the now empty dome, then looked down at their still intertwined hands.

"...It depends on the situation."

She turned her face away and gave a less-than-frank answer.

The two finally got up.

Pushing open the heavy doors of the planetarium, the afternoon sun poured down without reservation.

Stepping suddenly from the dimly lit interior into the street, the glaring light made Diamond Baby instinctively squint and raise his hand to shield his eyes.

But before she could move, a hand was already placed across her forehead.

Poetry and Wine's fair right hand shielded her from the blinding direct light.

Diamond Treasure paused for a moment, peeking through her fingers at Poetry and Wine's profile. The other's expression remained calm, as if she were doing something completely natural.

"A little wine..."

Once outside the planetarium, the outside world was incredibly noisy.

The warm breeze of early summer swept past the passersby, and the ivy rustled, pulling the two back to reality from their reverie of the vast Milky Way.

As he withdrew his poetry and wine, and was about to take a step, his feet felt almost imperceptibly unsteady for a moment.

A sudden wave of dizziness washed over me, and a flash of white light appeared at the edge of my vision.

Is it low blood sugar?

She subconsciously stopped in her tracks, her brows furrowing slightly, before she immediately tried to hide it and straightened up again.

But the cuff was gently tugged.

"A little wine?"

The voice of Diamond Treasure came from the side and behind.

Your complexion is a little pale.

"It's probably because I was in the dark for too long."

She tried to gloss over the poetry and wine in a flat tone, but unfortunately, her voice was a little weak.

Upon hearing this, Diamond Treasure blinked, as if it had suddenly realized something.

She took her phone out of her pocket and glanced at it.

"Um... it's 2:30 in the afternoon now."

"Is it already this time?"

"Ah."

Lingzuan Qibao nodded, a slightly sly smile creeping onto his lips.

"We were so busy getting there and looking at the stars that we completely forgot about lunch."

She didn't expose Shi Yujiu's earlier bravado, but instead naturally slid her hand down from the cuff, gently hooked it around the other person's fingers, and gave it a light shake.

"I think I smell something delicious? Shall we go find something to eat?"

Poetry and Wine looked into the smiling, light green eyes of the girl beside him, and his tense shoulders relaxed.

She sighed softly and gripped the slightly warm hand tightly in return.

"it is good."

After walking along the street for a short while, the two finally chose a Western-style restaurant.

A blackboard with the word "Open" hung on the wooden door of the Western-style restaurant, and the brass bell on the top of the door made a crisp sound when it was pushed open.

The gramophone in the store played classic jazz music, and the air was filled with the aroma of butter and beef.

"Welcome! Two people?"

A waiter's warm greeting came from over.

Poetry, wine, and diamond treasures found a corner by the window and sat down.

The waiter brought over a menu, and after quickly glancing at it, Poetry and Wine chose a combination of omelet rice and handmade hamburger patties.

"I want this one."

Poetry and Wine pointed to the picture.

"Hey? Does Xiao Jiu want to eat this?"

Sitting opposite, Diamond Treasure blinked and then gave a gentle smile.

"Then I'll go with Xiaojiu~ Please make two identical servings."

The waiter paused for a moment, his gaze lingering on the two beautiful young women.

He then understood and wrote down the list.

"Okay, two extra-large portions of Racer Girl!"

The waiting time wasn't long, but it was a bit unbearable for Shi and Jiu, who were in slightly poor physical condition.

She rested her chin on her hand, looking out the window in an attempt to distract herself.
