[Full-time master] Treading the waves

It’s not unusual to have fresh strawberries on the market so close to summer, but they are grapefruit-flavored, which is a bit odd.When Zheng Xuan and Xu Jingxi went out, they didn't know where to find this rare thing, and brought back two bags full of them to distribute to the team members. Even Lu Hanwen was so frightened that he hid behind Yu Wenzhou, but Song Xiao was eager to try.Huang Shaotian waited for his feedback of "the taste is not bad, you can try it, you won't regret it", and took a box dubiously.

He came back from the bathroom with the washed fruit and sat at the table. The person on the other end of the video call was also eating the fruit. The skin was verdant green and the flesh was delicate red. I ordered some chili salt.

Huang Shaotian has always rejected this way of eating, but the girl loves it, so it's not surprising: "Do you southerners like to eat like this?"

"Speak as if you weren't from the South."

"Nan without you, so badly without you." Huang Shaotian raised his chin, "Is this really a cactus fruit? Can it be eaten? Will it make your mouth full of thorns?"

"Really, you can eat it, but you won't." The little spoon approached the camera, "Try it?"

"Hey. You should bring special products when you come back. Is it fun over there? Is there a hula dance? A bonfire party? A gypsy girl? Is it good?"

"How did you learn geography? I'm in Africa, not South America, or Hawaii..."

"I've never learned such things as geography." Huang Shaotian picked up the strawberry and looked at death like home, "--it's too sour! Song Xiao, a liar, I want to challenge him to a duel!" He was sympathetic to the girl He drank half a glass of water in one breath, and the acidity on the tip of his tongue finally faded, "It's great, you're traveling around again, unlike me, you have to compete on schedule, it's miserable, it's too miserable."

"Are you in City S? I want to eat the bald butter rice on Yuyuan Road..."

"I still want to eat crabmeat dumplings. How can I have time? I have to go back after the game. But in case I really have time, how about I show you Yunchi?"

"...Forget it then."

The twilight here is dark and rainy, but the sun is still shining on the other side of the ocean.Xia Tong was sitting on the grass, with a child flying a kite behind her. She was wearing a big sun hat, and her complexion was slightly darkened by the sun.Last week, she said that she wanted to go to South Africa alone, and now she has stepped on the soil of the southern latitude. She is beautiful, free and independent, which is enviable.

Huang Shaotian looked at her as if he was looking at a worried little sister: "Is the law and order safe there? By the way, I have a friend whose friend is in Cape Town. Do you want his contact information?"

"No, I'm here to relax alone, why do you find me a companion?"

"Then you have to be safe by yourself. When will you come back?"

"I do not know."

"I still don't know about it. Why, are you planning to find a real man over there and then marry far away and never come back?"

The girl suddenly fell silent, and asked after a while: "How could it be possible not to come back, as for the real man—what if we meet again?"

Huang Shaotian realized that this sentence was not entirely a joke, it contained hints and real multiple-choice questions.We are all grown-ups, and things like relationships are about your feelings. I would like to respect each other, and I can't force it.He went through all the possibilities in his mind, and became more and more sure of his original guess that Xia Tong had someone he really liked. He took out a tissue to wipe off the dripping strawberry juice, and responded lightly: "Didn't it be agreed a long time ago?" , what are you afraid of?"

Xia Tong smiled, and turned to avoid the child's kite string: "Well, that's right."

Huang Shaotian looked at her: "I feel like we are breaking up through the screen now."

"Really? I didn't say that. In fact, you have a new love and want to abandon my old love."

"I'm not, I don't, don't talk nonsense. I just feel that if you are so far away, if you really want to come this far, will you never come back again?"

Xia Tong put away her smile, and her voice became serious: "Shaotian, I have never told you, it seems too nasty to say such things after so many years... But, it is really good to know you. Whether it is as Friends or—”

"Hey, hey, stop, brother is so cool, you don't accept a good guy card." Huang Shaotian sniffed exaggeratedly, "Should I cry bitterly and let the whole team sing me a happy breakup? I was dumped the night before the game, do you want to stimulate me so that I will be frustrated in love and happy in the battlefield tomorrow?"

The girl blinked: "You can guess that way."

"Then I really appreciate your hard work."

"You're welcome."

Huang Shaotian sighed: "So, this is the end, right?"

Xia Tong just laughed, and this smile was like an answer that both of them knew.

"I'm the child daughter-in-law who married me, just ran away with the old man next door... I don't know what his last name is." Huang Shaotian grieved, and then adjusted his expression seriously, "When will you bring that little brat back for me to meet? Is it really more handsome than me?"

Xia Tong was noncommittal: "Speaking of which," she asked, "Shaotian, do you also have, uh, someone you like?"

"How do you know?" Huang Shaotian blurted out, feeling something was wrong again, and changed his words, "Where did this headline come from, why didn't I know?"

"I just feel it too, not sure if it's right. But I'm sure you don't even know."

"..."

"Forget it, forget it, you've turned your head. But I have another thing to tell you." She said, resting her chin and tapping her cheek with her fingers, "Do you remember that in Zurich, me and you We went to the hotel together, and Zhou Zekai was there at the time. His pendant, in fact—"

Even though he had already eaten dinner, his stomach was still empty.Zhou Zekai decided to go to the kitchen to get some food, when he passed by the stairs, he happened to meet someone who came back from outside.Even though Sun Xiang had always harbored the prejudice that it would be too cheap for professional players to go to Internet cafes to play games, and couldn't help persuading him over and over again that only the atmosphere there was the strongest, he followed him for a while.But it was also the last time.

Sun Xiang made full use of the only opportunity to be a senior in this team, and angrily rubbed his little curly hair into a chicken coop: "Just once, just this once, I'm really blind and brainless to believe you !"

Yu Nian was very wronged: "I didn't expect this to happen..."

Zhou Zekai stared blankly at them from a high place, took off his earphones: "Is it raining?"

The peak of the team and the valley of the altitude were equally drenched, with water dripping from hair to clothes.The two were focused on throwing blame at each other all the way, only then did they notice that there was still someone standing on the stairs.Yu Nian saluted the captain, who was wearing pajamas and pajamas, and whose hair was no more tidy than his own: "Report, it's not long, but it's very big. Captain, did you forget to pack your clothes?"

That's not true.He hasn't done the laundry at all.

"Then why are you going?" "Find something to eat."

"I want to go, I want to go too! Brother Xiang doesn't even allow me to make noodles, I'm starving to death."

"The smell is so strong that you want to kill me." Sun Xiang patted him on the back of the head, then looked at Zhou Zekai suspiciously, "It's raining so hard, how high do you have to turn up the volume of your earphones so you can't hear it?"

It wasn't the headphones that were at fault, it was him who was distracted.The whole world disappears as soon as your mind wanders, you can't see anything, you can't hear anything.As for why the mind is distracted, this is not something that can be told to the younger generations.

Fortunately, Sun Xiang's curiosity came and went quickly, and what is more important right now is the satisfaction of his physical needs—at first, Yu Nian dragged him staggeringly to the kitchen, but he was the first to rush in when he got there. .

The club provided a kitchen for the dormitory floor, with brand-new utensils and all kinds of appliances, although the group of homeboys were not expected to cook at all.The appliances with the highest usage rate here are refrigerators and microwave ovens. Sun Xiang and Yu Nian decided to share the pizza that Du Ming left yesterday. Zhou Zekai pondered for a long time in front of the refrigerator, and finally took a bottle of milk.

Yu Nian was lying on the table as if his father was about to give birth, staring at the microwave oven, his stomach was growling, he turned around and saw Zhou Zekai's choice: "Captain, do you just drink this?"

"I ate at night."

"Is there tomato sirloin in the cafeteria tonight?" "No."

"Oh, I miss Mrs. Fang's craftsmanship." The child was very frustrated, "That's great, I want a girlfriend too."

"Girlfriend doesn't cook for you." Sun Xiang said, "You might as well hire a nanny."

"Cooking is not the point, the point is to be full of love!" Yu Nian tutted, "Brother Xiang, you really don't understand the fun of life, no wonder you don't have a girlfriend."

Sun Xiang snorted: "That's because I don't want to look for it. Is there anything I can't find if I want to look for it?"

After Du Ming, Samsara has a second target that can be killed with one blow with this kind of question.The difference is that Yu Nian's confession is successful or not, while Du Ming—"Did you confess?"

As soon as the problem came out, the child immediately deflated like a leaky balloon.However, after a few seconds, he regained his energy and shifted his target, shy and expectant: "Where's that mysterious admirer of the captain?"

"...?"

"The one who gave you roses." Yu Nian gestured, "I took care of it before."

"And he took care of him to death."

"Brother Xiang, have you learned some dismantling skills from Brother Qi recently..."

"Ha ha."

"Captain, look at him imitating your taunt!"

Back then, the matter between him and Ye Qiu was not deliberately hidden, nor could it be said to be made public. The two young people's focus has always been diverted. Yu Nian remembers the fragrance of roses by the window sill in midsummer, but he doesn't know who made it.

Zhou Zekai almost forgot about this matter, when it was mentioned so suddenly, he felt a little dazed after such a long time.After Ye Qiu left the country, he rarely posted on Moments. Now they only exist in each other's contact list, but they will never contact each other again.

Someone once came to his desert, wanted to plant a tree, cared for it carefully, but finally withered and died.That person planned to stay longer and try harder, but the wilderness still couldn't hold the second person other than the mirage.

It's enough for him to guard the flower in his fantasy. He doesn't care about the end of time and the loneliness of a hundred years.

With the sound of the microwave oven, Zhou Zekai rejected the warm invitation of the two. He heated up milk in the aroma overflowing in the small space, and sat on the side of the cooking table to watch the two of them compete for the smoked sausage and cheese as if they were in person.

Someone knocked on the kitchen door, and it turned out to be a security guard: "Captain Zhou, someone is looking for you outside."

Zhou Zekai stood up.

It's so late, and it's still raining outside, who could it be?
