years and years

After the rainstorm, the weather is fresh and cool, the grass on the roadside is green, with condensed water droplets on it, the ground is wet, and the wild flowers blooming after the baptism of the rain look a little more delicate, and the fragrance of flowers spreads into the nasal cavity.

The rain finally stopped after three days. Some roads were full of potholes and puddles of puddles of water. When the car drove by, there would always be a lot of splashes. People who rushed to work in the morning were afraid of the dirty water splashing on their bodies. They all walked to the side of the road.

There were not many people in the early morning, vehicles passed by in twos and threes on the road, and a white figure on the deserted street was particularly eye-catching.The man was wearing simple white T-jeans. What caught the eye was not that he was handsome, but that he rode his bicycle downhill like a gust of wind. The cool wind blew his bangs in front of his face, revealing his white forehead. .

The bicycle made a sharp turn, and the man clenched the brakes, parked the bicycle in front of a breakfast shop, and stretched out his hand to twirl his hair casually.

The store is not big, but it is full of people. There is a steaming boiler at the door, and there are cages of steamed buns on it.

After the boss greeted the man, he turned around and saw Shuci standing at the door, wiped his sweat with the towel hanging around his neck, and smiled honestly: "Come on."

Shuci walked a few steps forward, called "Uncle Li", ordered a basket of steamed stuffed buns and a bowl of egg soup, looked around, walked to the unoccupied table and sat down.

Yesterday he was only focused on playing games, slept late, forgot that he had to do a part-time job early in the morning, Shuci was so sleepy that he yawned, and he only moved a few times when the egg soup was served.

If you are sleepy, you still have to eat.

The egg soup was burning his mouth, Shuci was pinching the steamed stuffed bun with one hand and stirring it with a spoon in the other, trying to make it cool faster, when a steamed stuffed bun was swallowed, someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder, Shuci turned his head and saw a little fat boy.

The little fat boy's nickname is Fat Tiger, and Shuci met him by chance.He has been here for more than two years and has been living here. Once he was riding a bicycle home and passed by the alley and found a group of children who didn't pay attention to the calligraphy.

A group of boys in junior high school uniforms surrounded the corner, and it wasn't like smoking in groups.He himself is considered a delinquent boy. He was banned from living in school by the school when he frequently fought, and he did a lot of drinking and smoking when he was fighting with a stick, so he could guess what these children were doing.

Sure enough, he guessed right.

He yelled, and the boys turned their heads. Shu Ci tilted his head and saw Fat Tiger crying in the corner with his nose dripping from his nose.

The boys looked at each other in panic. Seeing that the man was so tall, he must be an adult and dared not speak.There seems to be a leader among the group of children, with an unlit cigarette in his mouth, stretching his neck and shouting: "Who are you? What are you doing?"

Shuci thought it was fun, walked in, took the cigarette out of his mouth, took a look between his fingers, threw it on the ground and stomped it flat: "Children, don't smoke, it's bad for your health, and you won't grow up in the future."

The little boy was stunned, cursed a curse word, and stretched out his hand to point at him: "Fuck... ouch...!!!"

Before the swearing was finished, there was a burst of wailing, which made Shuci frowned.Twisting his arm without letting go, he smiled and said, "What's your name? I didn't use any force."

The boy stopped talking, and the others watched with open eyes.Shu Ci looked down at the thing he was holding in his hand, and a part of it was exposed, then looked up at the crying little fat boy in the corner who couldn't see his eyes, and let him go with his hands loose.

In the eyes of Shuci, these little bastards are just a group of children, and they didn't want to embarrass them, they just wanted to scare them.Shuci looked at the 20 yuan in his hand, and smacked his lips: "Don't go to school well and bully the weak every day? And block others to ask for money? What is this 20 yuan enough for? It's too hot to buy a popsicle for one person to relieve the heat?"

The boys didn't know how to fight, so they ran away one after another.

Later Shuci took Fat Hu to buy popsicles and a pack of paper to wipe away his tears and nose.So in the following days, Fat Tiger almost greeted him whenever he saw him.

"Get up so early? What are you doing?"

After Shuci asked, he took another sip of egg soup. Fat Tiger sat down beside him, called "Brother Shuci", and replied, "I came out to play."

"Come out to play?" Shuci swallowed the bun, turned to look at him: "What time is it? After seven o'clock, you got up so early to come out to play?"

Fat Tiger looked at his steamed bun, licked his lower lip, and said, "I want to eat it too."

"Your mother didn't cook for you?" Shuci asked, greeted the boss, and ordered the same one as him.

Fat Tiger smiled happily, and said, "I've eaten, I'm not full."

Shuci was amused, and turned to pat his head: "Okay, it's a blessing to be able to eat."

Fat Tiger was stuffed with steamed stuffed buns, and the egg soup became colder. Shu Ci ate quickly, paid the bill, and flicked Fat Tiger on the forehead before leaving, saying, "Eat slowly."

Ride the bicycle all the way without hindrance. After locking the car, Shuci walked into a dessert shop a few steps. There was a young girl inside. She saw him just as she put on her apron and said hello, "You're here."

Shuci hummed.

"I heard Manager Xia say that you are coming to work today, but I still don't believe it. Why did you come back so early?"

Shuci went to the staff room to change clothes, without looking back: "I have something to do, I'll be back."

It's okay, but the little friend who shared the rent with him has a girlfriend and plans to move out. He didn't have to come back, but the roommate has a few books and game consoles in his room, and they are eager to use them. He is at home It's okay, I told my grandfather and came back.

Thinking about this, Shuci picked up his phone and updated the rental information. The content requirements are: male, clean, don't take people home indiscriminately, and don't make noise to disturb the people.

Shuci stared at the phone, wondering why no one had called him yet.The rent is so expensive that he can't bear it alone.

After changing clothes and going out, Shuci took the mop from Xia Qingqing's hand, Xia Qingqing said: "Then you drag it, I'll put the bread in the cabinet."

There were not many people in the morning, and most of them bought and left to go to work. During the period, a few girls came together and asked Shuci for their mobile phone number. Yes, leave a sentence: "Cruel-hearted man."

Cici's job is to pay the bills and mix coffee. Since it is a part-time job, the salary is paid once a week.This dessert shop is a national chain, formal and strict, and the salary is not low. At least there will be some left over after paying the rent.

There is a commission for applying for a membership card. When a customer came to check out, he smiled and asked: "Sir, do you want to apply for a membership card? Now you can recharge 300 and get 30 free."

"...Oh, you have."

"Ma'am, do you want a membership card?"

He asked like this all morning, and he really succeeded in asking two people. Those two people were girls. The scholar was handsome and tall. The little girl couldn't resist his smiling face. She was embarrassed to refuse, so she took out the money.

After the people left, Xia Qingqing shook her head again and again: "Tsk tsk tsk, you make money with your face."

Standing at the cash register, Shu Ci shamelessly accepted this evaluation: "No way, it's just that I have this ability."

There is a wind chime hanging at the door, and when someone pushes the door, it will make a crisp and pleasant sound, and someone comes to get the cake. The sun did not come out at noon, and the weather was still gray.

"Go eat first." Xia Qingqing held a plate of chocolate donuts in her hand, "I'll show you for a while."

Too full in the morning, not too hungry, Shu Ci shook his head: "You go first."

Xia Qingqing responded, and turned around to put the bread in the cupboard.

The wind chimes rang again, someone walked in, and then Shuci heard an extremely excited "Welcome".

He thought to himself why Xia Qingqing's voice was so whiny, what kind of madness did she have? Looking up, Xia Qingqing was still holding a plate in her hand, and she kept looking at a figure beside her.

This person just came in, tall and tall, with his back facing him.Shuci looked up while counting the list, after a while the man finally turned around, he froze at the first glance.

Two words slowly came out of his mouth - damn it.

Four words, damn it, so handsome.

No wonder Xia Qingqing was a nymphomaniac, Shu Ci glanced again, the man was looking at the bread in the cupboard, there were not many people in the shop, but all eyes were attracted by this tall man.

It's always easy for boys to look at boys, but it's different in Xia Qingqing's eyes. She didn't realize what it means to miss a heartbeat when she saw this person for the first time, and her eyes were straightened.This boy is quite tall, with fine hair on his forehead covering his heroic browbones, his facial features are three-dimensional and exquisite, full of heroism, wearing a black shirt is a bit more charming, but this man refuses to look at people directly, looking up lazily of.

Very attractive, I like it very much.

Shuci couldn't see Xia Qingqing being a nympho, so he coughed a few times before Xia Qingqing continued to do the work in hand.

"what--!!!"

Shuci wanted to wait for the boy to choose and come over to pay the bill, but he didn't expect that there was a sudden roar, Shuci was startled, looked up and saw Xia Qingqing staring at the boy with a horrified expression, holding a plate It was empty, and several donuts had been dropped, resulting in chunks of dark chocolate sauce all over the floor.

But what frightened Xia Qingqing wasn't that the donut fell to the floor, but that she stained this handsome guy's clothes.

The boy was wearing a black shirt, and Shuci took a closer look to see that there was a deep black patch on his chest.Xia Qingqing met his obviously dissatisfied eyes, and was so scared that she hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I slipped my foot... I'm really sorry..."

The boy frowned, his heroic appearance was really scary when he got angry.

Shuci put down the list in his hand, took a box of tissues and said, "Wipe it first."

The boy looked up at him, was slightly taken aback, and reached out to take it.His slender fingers opened the paper box, and the paper that came out was black. He looked at his fingers and frowned again for a moment.

Standing beside him, Xia Qingqing could see that he was very upset, and said, "I'm really sorry, where did you buy this dress? How much did you pay for it? Can I compensate you for one?"

The boy didn't say a word, he didn't seem to want to wipe it anymore, he threw the paper on her plate casually, and asked, "Is there a men's clothing store nearby?"

Xia Qingqing was stunned for a moment, and wanted to go out to have a look, Shuci said directly: "No."

There are snacks nearby, and there are no men's clothing stores at all.

"Are you in a hurry? If you're not in a hurry, I'll go out and buy one for you. I'll take a taxi, and you just sit in the store and wait!"

The boy seemed to be impatient, frowning all the time, ignoring Xia Qingqing, picked up the tray on the side and walked towards the cashier, Shuci quickly stood up straight, took a look at this person who seemed to be about the same height as him, and said, "A total of 88 , do you have a membership card, sir?"

The boy narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at him: "No."

"Sir, do you want to get a membership card? Now recharge 300 and get 30 free."

The corner of the mouth of the person in front of him was not obvious, his eyes were cold, and he met the eyes of Shuci, and said softly: "Do you think I will come again in the future?"

"..."

Get angry at him.

Xia Qingqing hurried over: "Sir! In order to express my apology, I will give you a free order for these without charging you, and I will give you a cup of coffee next time!"

"No need." The boy lowered his head and glanced at the time, then glanced at the dark and sticky chocolate sauce on his chest. Judging from his frowning, this handsome guy is extremely upset now.

After wrapping up the book for him, he looked at him, then at his upper body, hesitated for a moment, and said, "...I have a white shirt, which I haven't worn yet after washing it—if you don't mind, Shall I borrow from you first?"
