To Oak

Zhu Miao always felt that there was no sense of reality. After the college entrance examination, he suddenly felt that he had nothing to do, no need to do questions, no need to endorse, no need to review.The store is not open today, Zhu Miao has nothing to do, thinking about taking a nap, lying on the couch, she closes her eyes and opens them again within a minute.

Where can I sleep!

He swept the store up and down, mopped it, picked up the utensils on the bar counter, wiped them clean, and put them back as they were.After tossing back and forth all afternoon, the sunflowers on the bar were in full bloom. Every time Zhu Miao saw these extremely enthusiastic flowers, she felt very happy.

As long as he saw it, he would think of Xiang Shu. Whenever he thought of Xiang Shu, his heart would be full and his stomach would be warm. It was amazing.

When the sun was setting, Xiang Shu opened the door and came in, bringing Zhu Miao food.Zhu Miao was lying on the bar counter, bored, pointing at the sunflower petals, counting petals one by one, absent-mindedly, forgetting half of the count, and counting again.Seeing Xiang Shu coming in, he couldn't help shouting: "It's so boring——"

Xiang Shu was taken aback by him, and greeted him: "Eat."

The two of them ate the leftovers at noon. Xiang Shu brought them home and reheated them. Although they were leftovers, Zhu Miao was very happy to eat them. Yiling's cooking is at the level of a big food stall.

After eating, Zhu Miao hugged her stomach and burped.

Xiang Shu said, "Let's go."

"where to?"

Xiang Shu stood up, picked up the two helmets placed on the bar, and said, "Go for a ride, didn't I promise you?"

Zhu Miao looked at the sky, it was getting dark late in summer, and it was still light outside, he asked, "So early?"

"Hurry up, I can catch the sunset."

Zhu Miao jumped for joy, and ran upstairs to change her clothes, a white T-shirt of the same color as Xiang Shu.He brushed his hair in front of the mirror, reminded him to cut his hair before, but he didn't want to cut it, he wanted to imitate Xiang Shu, tie it up, it looks very handsome.

He ran downstairs while saying "Come here" loudly, and locked the door carefully.Xiang Shu straddled the motorcycle and waited for him. Zhu Miao was inexplicably nervous. When he locked the door, the key almost didn't fit properly.

Zhu Miao put on the helmet, straddled the back seat of the motorcycle, took a deep breath, put his arms around Xiang Shu's waist, and whispered, "Okay."

Xiang Shu seemed to take a breath, and his waist and abdomen tensed for a moment, but he didn't say anything, and started the car.

It was still early, and Xiang Shu wasn't driving very fast. The wind blew over and scratched his skin, and his head was a little hot from being stuffed in the helmet.But Zhu Miao didn't feel too hot, his mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about what to say and how to do it later, thinking about it, his mind was chaotic and dizzy.

Before he knew it, there were fewer cars on the road. Xiang Shu speeded up the car, and he could already smell the sea, and there was a salty smell in the air.

They came at just the right time. The sun was like a salted duck egg yolk, so red that it was oily, hanging not far from the sea level, and the clouds were dyed golden red.They parked the car, didn't speak for a while, and didn't leave. Xiang Shu sat on the rocks on the beach, with one leg bent, and took a few random photos with his mobile phone.

Zhu Miao stared at the sun as it fell to only half, the setting sun melted gold, seagulls flew by, and the sun jumped on the top of the waves.

Staring until his eyes were sore, Zhu Miao ran to the canteen and bought two popsicles, one for Xiang Shu and one for himself. Standing by the rock, it was so cold that he couldn’t bite. gas.When the popsicles were finished, the sun went down, and the waves became a little rougher, rushing to the beach one after another.

Xiang Shu stood up with the remaining wooden stick in his pocket, and said, "Let's go."

"Ok?"

Zhu Miao didn't react, why was she leaving?He looked at the beach where night had just fallen, and thought of the short but unforgettable kiss they had here that day.Zhu Miao's whole face was hot, and he hurriedly said, "Wait, wait a minute—"

Xiang Shu turned his head, looked at him, and waited for him to speak.

Zhu Miao's courage just now flew away for some reason.Xiang Shu looked calm, as if he had already guessed what he was going to say next, and what he said next would not surprise Xiang Shu.The timidity at this moment was like he was walking happily when he suddenly stepped on the ground.

The sea breeze is cool and the stars first appear, just in time.

Zhu Miao muttered, "I...I want to say..."

Xiang Shu looked at him and asked patiently, "What's wrong?"

"I lied to you before." It would be much easier just to start, Zhu Miao said straightaway, "I didn't kiss you because I was curious, I kissed you because... because... because I like you. "

The sound of the waves filled the silence for a moment. Zhu Miao was like an oyster reluctant to open it. Only at this time did he reveal the most precious pearl. This was his most ulterior motive, but he thought it was just what everyone knew except him. , because the love of a teenager cannot be hidden, and his eyes are brighter than the stars.

Zhu Miao took a deep breath, stared at the tip of her shoe, and said, "Brother, I really like you. If you don't like me, I..."

I'm fine too.

Zhu Miao originally wanted to say this, it was just a confession, not a threat, and she always wanted to leave a way out for others.But in the middle of the talk, he couldn't say it again. It didn't matter at all, it mattered a lot.

You don't like me, do you?Zhu Miao blinked her eyes, moved her eyes up little by little, and finally looked into Xiang Shu's eyes.

His heart trembled suddenly.

Xiang Shu looked at him, frowning slightly, as if he was facing a difficult problem—his liking was a difficult problem.Zhu Miao's heart began to sink, and kept sinking, she subconsciously took a step back, her eyes wandered around, unable to find a foothold.

He said, "I'm sorry, I..."

Xiang Shu suddenly interrupted his apology: "You are still young, you don't know what liking is, and you don't know me either."

Zhu Miao looked at him blankly.

"It's just because I helped you when you were in trouble. I also helped many people. Yiling, she was only 15 years old when I met her. She had Asperger's syndrome, social difficulties, and committed suicide three times. I The first time I saw her, she was unconsciously looking at the wall and talking to herself. Her parents thought she was crazy and was going to be sent to a mental hospital, so I introduced her to a psychologist and taught her coffee."

"I also rescued a lot of stray cats. When I first picked them up, each one was sick and went to the pet hospital every day."

Xiang Shu said: "Temporary dependence does not mean liking. When you get to know me, you may not like me anymore. Instead, you will blame me for using these help to kidnap your feelings."

Zhu Miao was stunned for a while, unable to think at all.

The sky was completely dark, the waves were rough, the moon was curved, and the moonlight shrouded the two of them. There was only one step between them, but Zhu Miao felt that they were far apart.Xiang Shu just stood in front of him, alone, he helped many people, and many people stayed by his side and then left.

I heard that many people thought they were going to fall in love?
