The dumb guy who sells finger pies

It has been two months since the first year of high school.

The completely unfamiliar environment did not break Xun Fei's seemingly indifferent attitude towards life.It's just that at every beginning, people can't help but have the illusion of letting go of the old dust, without hesitation, and striding towards the new world.After all, he couldn't escape the common customs, and started his high school study career when he was busy.

The stern appearance of Xun Fei attracted the attention of many people when he first entered school.After several weeks of intense military training, the tall, upright, resolute and unrestrained Xun Fei has already become one of the influential figures in the school.His appearance is so eye-catching that everyone can subconsciously ignore his indifference and irritability.

It's morning again.Xun Fei got up step by step, took the bus, plugged in his earphones, and staggered towards the school.

As winter approaches, the city in the morning light is still quiet.The sun can't be seen, only a piece of morning light dyes the sky and the patchwork of high-rise buildings.The crowded city is full of steam, and the street scene at the top where the sun does not shine is still dark blue.Out of the window as far as the eye can see, there are large and small shops unchanged, the traffic is flowing, and a few lone birds occasionally pass by.

In the haze, as the bus drove, some crowded breakfast stalls with small yellow light bulbs appeared around the school.Congee, steamed buns, oil cakes and other food were rubbed in the hands of students who were hungry and anxious due to time.One of the shops that is closest to the side is converted from an electric tricycle. There are not many people in front of the stall, and the "boss" standing behind the stall is also orderly arranging the ingredients, as if he is not worried about the coldness of the stall.

Xun Fei calmly withdrew his gaze, got out of the car, and naturally walked to the somewhat special-looking stall.

"Boss, as always, let me have a non-spicy one... wait, two." Xun Fei suddenly thought of the girlfriend he had just made.

The man called "Boss" at the back of the car nodded silently, and then quickly started frying finger pancakes.Even though he is wearing a black mask, people can still feel his gentleness.

The finger biscuits spread out and turned into an attractive golden color in a short while.Other ingredients are placed in an orderly manner, and the amount is sufficient.This small stall is not like other places where you directly take an iron plate and pour the batter on it. Instead, you use a very particular electric baking pan, and the ingredients next to it are neatly arranged.

Since the beginning of school, Xun Fei has seen this person setting up a stall here, but the pancake tools and trolley in his hands are still so clean.This may also be one of the reasons why he frequents here.

Besides, he never gets tired of eating this person's finger cakes.It's not about how delicious it is, it's just because in the past two months, this person will introduce new flavors every once in a while, and it's not the same. There are other snacks, and the taste is also very good.Xun Fei couldn't help thinking, how popular would this stall be in a place he didn't know?

Xun Fei stood aside, waiting quietly, but his eyes couldn't help drifting to the thin man who was busy.

The man in front of him was thin and wrapped in a heavy leather jacket that didn't fit well. He was half a head shorter than him, but he gave the impression that he was no different from a college student.

He has soft black hair, delicate eyebrows and eyes, and his eyelashes look very long when his head is lowered.In the past two months, Xun Fei has never seen him take off his mask, and always calls him "Boss".Asked him something, he just smiled gently, waved his hands, then hung his head to tinker again.I don't know his name, his surname, or where his family lives, but only one thing—this man is a mute.

Disabled people are not uncommon these days, and Xun Fei is not too idle to gossip about other people's affairs, instead he has a kind of gossamer-like compassion.

After the cakes were cooked, Xun Fei glanced at his watch, then took the bag and walked towards the school...

After entering the class, before Xun Fei returned to his seat, he saw Jin Xiaowei standing up excitedly.

"Husband, what delicious food did you bring me?" Jin Xiaowei's eyes were fixed on Xun Fei who was walking towards her, her pretty face showed undisguised anticipation and shyness.

"Hand pie." Xun Fei curled his lips, and placed her portion on the table covered with pink stationery.

"Ah?" Jin Xiaowei stared at the steaming pancakes in the plastic bag, frowning slightly, obviously not interested in such things.But this dissatisfaction was also short-lived, she paused, then smiled and took Xun Fei's arm, and called delicately: "Thank you husband!"

After all, in the eyes of others, it is an "honor" to let Xun Fei buy a breakfast for him.

Xun Fei looked down at her, seemingly undeniable.After Jin Xiaowei let go of his arm, he immediately sat back in his seat and finished his breakfast.

Jin Xiaowei is Xun Fei who just made a girlfriend yesterday.

I met him a few times at ktv at the beginning of school, and later found out that he was in the same class, and Jin Xiaowei began to pester him crazily, even following him to buy finger pancakes to satisfy his hunger after school.

Yesterday Jin Xiaowei made a bold confession at the school gate.At that time, he was buying food at the hand pancake stand, he was starving to death, and wanted to go home, and there was such a big trouble buzzing in his ears.I couldn't tell which muscle was cramping, but as soon as my brain got hot, I agreed.

Xun Fei wanted to speak clearly to Jin Xiaowei today, but seeing her enthusiasm, Xun Fei couldn't help but shut up.If he really found out, it was just a hot-headed and casual agreement from him. According to Jin Xiaowei's temperament, he might make a fuss endlessly.

Tomorrow is off, after school, Xun Fei is doomed, and is dragged to a barbecue party with a group of people.Jin Xiaowei clung to him tightly all the way, almost wishing to hang herself on him.Walking with his arm, sitting down and leaning on him, staring at him and smiling silly when facing each other.

Entering the private room, the intimate movements of the two caused a wave of screams.Jin Xiaowei stole the limelight.

At the party, there was bombardment of music, beer barbecue, puffing clouds in the corner, the girls were wearing fashionable clothes, the boys were coaxing, the psychedelic halo was entangled with laughter, and Jin Xiaowei was even more emotional for the party. He sang "Finally Waiting for You", which directly pushed the atmosphere of the banquet to a climax.

Xun Fei watched everything in front of him quietly from the beginning to the end.The noise in front of him made him almost breathless, but somewhere in his heart still seemed to be empty.The light coated Xun Fei's resolute side face with a layer of faint blue.And that incompleteness was hot and cold, the more lively it was in front of him, the more it almost tore and engulfed him.

Near ten o'clock, Xun Fei put Jin Xiaowei into a taxi.The few remaining people also dispersed separately.

Cui Xi pushed his big round glasses, and said with a smile: "Xun Fei, you really don't feel sorry for Xiaowei, it's getting dark, how can you let her go back as a girl?"

"Jin Xiaowei has a black belt in karate. My home is only a hundred meters away. Do you think I need to worry?"

Cui Xi laughed loudly: "I think she has to learn karate now!"

Xun Fei glanced at him.

Cui Xi coughed, "Okay, okay, I have to go to cram school tomorrow morning! That's it, goodbye!"

Cui Xi waved his hand decisively, stopped a taxi and slipped away, leaving Xun Fei walking along the road alone.

The cold night wind blows, and the ears are quiet.Xun Fei took a deep breath, and then exhaled tiredly.If his father didn't kill him and wouldn't let him touch cigarettes, he would really like to light one right now.

"Boss, take a bottle of Coke."

Xun Fei was very surprised to meet that mute on the street.

The mute was still wearing a mask, and at the moment was pushing the car that seemed to be malfunctioning towards him.Hearing his voice, the mute was obviously taken aback, perhaps he didn't expect to meet Xun Fei here around ten o'clock.After all, it was a customer for two months, how could he not know him?

The mute stopped, and after a while, he actually got him a bottle of Coke from the car.and a small note.

The note said, "Drink less carbonated drinks in the future, it's not good for your health."Xun Fei paused for a moment, then raised his head in a daze, only to see that the mute had buried his head and continued to push the cart.

Xun Fei stared at the mute's slowly moving back, and then looked at the note in his hand, not knowing what it was like.He thought for a while, then trotted forward to push the other side of the car, and said to the mute, "Let me push it for you."

The mute was very surprised, then his eyes turned to gratitude, and he nodded in agreement.

This was the first time that Xun Fei had an exchange with the mute except when buying finger cakes.

Pushing the electric tricycle, the two slowly left the city center and came to an old residential area.The surrounding light gradually diminished, the mute stopped, and waved to Xun Fei, indicating that he could just come here.

Xun Fei smiled at him, didn't say anything more to him, and then turned around.

But just after taking two steps, he turned his head involuntarily.The mute had already turned the cart into a deep alley with his back turned to him.

All of a sudden, Xun Fei remembered that he forgot to pay someone.Thinking of this, he immediately followed with strides, without any scruples, followed the same path that the mute had taken, and turned into that alley.

Turning in, Xun Fei realized that the environment here was not so bad.

Xun Fei couldn't help feeling a little nauseated, but staring at the dumb figure not far away, he finally followed up.

He saw that the mute turned into another aisle, and there was a relatively bright small light hanging in front of the blue iron door, where the mute locked the car, and tied the wheel to the iron water pipe next to it with an iron chain.He walked around the car in some distress, checking back and forth to see what was wrong with the car, and for a moment he didn't notice Xun Fei in the dark.

Immediately afterwards, he stood up and began to organize the items in the car and the remaining food.

Xun Fei came back to his senses, and was about to walk over to call him, when the mute turned his back to him and slowly took off his mask.

That was the first time he saw the dumb face.

She was really as beautiful as he thought.

The serious expression on the mute's face was extraordinarily charming under the bright light, and his eyes were warm and moist. At this moment, the eyes were slightly drooping like the ones Xun Fei had seen many times, appearing quiet and forbearing.His lips were slightly chapped and whitish due to the cold, and the tip of his nose was red from the cold.It's just a fly in the ointment, there is a scar that is neither long nor short on the right cheek of the mute.The color of the scar is very light, not grim, as if scratched by a knife.

——If it is an insignificant person, Xun Fei really feels this way.

It's just that in his eyes, the appearance of the person in front of him at this moment is like a thunderbolt that splits his heart instantly, dripping with blood!

He backed away a little bit in disbelief.

The people in front of them were distorting with the bright light.

The distorted vision and the piercing cold wind seemed to drag him back to a night six years ago.There seemed to be a sudden drizzle in front of my eyes, and the old alley disappeared, turning into a long street that seemed to have no end.And that day on the street was empty and dark.

Obviously the person in front of him is so pleasing to the eye, but his whole body is trembling like this.

The surging pain tore apart.

The brain seemed to stop thinking.

The person in front of him is probably the one who left without saying goodbye six years ago, "Brother Xue Nuo"!
