The rooftop was a triangular slope, but not a steep one.
It was actually paved with glazed tiles.
However, there was a thick layer of straw atop the glazed tiles.
Standing on it felt like standing on a pile of haystacks, and it was not slippery.
Xingxing quickly found a spot and sat on the edge of the eaves.
Then she patted a spot next to her, "Xia Ye, you sit here."
The three of them sat side by side on the rooftop.
Xia Yangyang sat on the edge.
Although Xia Yangyang felt climbing on the rooftop was somewhat dangerous, she didn't stop them.
One reason was she didn't want to spoil the children's fun.
The other was because Xia Ye, young as he was, seldom did anything so unseemly.
Other parents might have scolded them,
but for Xia Yangyang, it was a pleasant surprise.
Xingxing pointed to the stars in the sky and said, "Look, those are the Big Dipper."
Xia Yangyang looked up and indeed, the view from up here was very different from below.
