"Just, that's it?" Zhuang Wenyao was arranged clearly, followed Lu Zhiheng out of the house, his head was full of question marks, he didn't feel real, "Just kicked me out like this?"

The smile on Lu Zhiheng's face deepened: "Don't you want to live at my house?"

"Thinking about it..." Zhuang Wenyao scratched his head, still feeling dissatisfied with the fate he had been assigned, "They are so eager to drive me away, they must be trying to do something bad behind my back!"

"Pfft..." Lu Zhiheng smiled and rubbed his head, "Little fool, stop thinking about it."

It is midsummer, even though it is slightly cool at night, the dull air still carries heat.Jialin Xinyuan is "as the name suggests", with a very high rate of green coverage. The dense green trees cast a thick shade, together with the pure moonlight and the bursts of cicadas, together brewing the unique lingering night in summer.

Since Lu Zhiheng and Zhuang Wenyao became neighbors, every minute and every second they spent together was very fulfilling. This was the first time that they wandered around the community leisurely and without distractions.

Impressed by the current atmosphere, Lu Zhiheng couldn't help asking: "It's still early, why don't you go for a walk?"

Zhuang Wenyao also had the same intention: "Okay! It's just for digestion..."

He turned his head and met the boy's smiling side face, the curve of his lips was exactly the same as the boy in his memory.

Zhuang Wenyao suddenly thought of the late autumn of that year: golden ginkgo leaves everywhere, paper airplanes lifted by the wind, the smell of the sun on the white T-shirt...

Obviously, the trees are lush, the night is quiet and there is no wind, the seasons, the environment and other factors are not in line. With just a smile, his thoughts have traveled back to many years ago.

"Brother," Zhuang Wenyao said suddenly, "Do you know what's interesting about our community? For example... the path with ginkgo trees... something like that?"

Lu Zhiheng understood what he meant, but frowned slightly, with some hesitation and regret in his tone: "Yes, there is, but...it doesn't look like a family courtyard. I'll take you to have a look!"

"it is good!"

The boundary between the east and west districts of Jialin Xinyuan is a main road running north-south.There is a round island in the middle, which is a magnificent central fountain, surrounded by five lifelike statues of angels and gods, looking pure, holy and magnificent.

From time to time, residents walking by pass by, sitting down and resting on the stone wall around the fountain: two or three-year-old children stretch out their hands to the angel, and are hugged tightly by their mothers with a smile; elderly couples Snuggling together, massaging and patting the slightly sore thighs while whispering, in the eyes are the wind and frost that have passed through the years, and the friendship that has passed the test of time.

The sometimes clear and sometimes vague human speech, intertwined with the soft sound of the fountain, makes the summer night more peaceful, the time longer, and the pace of walking becomes gentler.

Zhuang Wenyao followed Lu Zhiheng through this roundabout, and went around to the densely built area, which was another open area. The surrounding flower beds were designed with a sense of art, and there were several huge ginkgo trees planted inside, as thick as two people hugging each other.Dimly visible under the street lamps, a tree of emerald green "small fans" adorns the branches.

Zhuang Wenyao soon understood what Lu Zhiheng meant by "not quite like".

The path in the family courtyard is lined with ginkgo trees.Their trunks can barely cover the figure of a child, but the dense branches and leaves donate a lot of shade.Children enjoy the shade, laugh, play, and play games under the trees... When the autumn wind blows, golden trees fall one after another, fluttering and rolling on the road of the natural color of the land, and are trampled and crushed by the children. It is a beautiful picture. Picture scroll, a tactful movement.

Right now, this space is spacious and open, with snow-white marble floor tiles neatly laid out.The ginkgo tree is also huge and rare, and it is planted in the center of the flower bed as a mascot. Against the background of the shrubs and the isolation of the stone wall, there is a sense of distance from a distance: people are just spectators outside the painting, not the people in the painting.

It can't be said that they are exactly the same, it can only be said that they are irrelevant.

"It really doesn't look like it!" It can be said that it is completely tasteless.Zhuang Wenyao smiled helplessly, feeling in his heart, "There are fewer and fewer places like family homes now..."

"Yes." Lu Zhiheng nodded, and suddenly wanted to ask him a question, "Do you prefer the family courtyard or here?"

"Hmm..." Zhuang Wenyao lowered his head and thought about it for a while, then suddenly grinned, "I like them all! Because I have you."

Lu Zhiheng was taken aback for a moment, then turned his head and looked at him fixedly.

"Yes!" Zhuang Wenyao continued, "Sometimes my mother told me that I was really lucky when I was young, and I met such a good friend as you. Without you, my childhood must have been quite good~ Boring, my mother might consider giving me a younger brother or sister or something..."

"Do you want younger siblings?" Lu Zhiheng asked.

Zhuang Wenyao shook his head and smiled: "It's enough for me to have you!"

"..." Lu Zhiheng was speechless for a moment, as if a lump was stuck in his throat, he even forgot his habitual smile.

While he was in a daze, Zhuang Wenyao suddenly tugged at his hand: "There's a small store over there! No, it should be called a convenience store..."

Lu Zhiheng came back to his senses, and naturally held his fingers back: "Do you want to go shopping?"

"it is good!"

"Welcome~" The shop assistant in blue overalls smiled politely.

As soon as I entered the gate, I smelled a sweet fragrance unique to convenience stores.The decoration of the store is very luxurious and bright.Various products are neatly placed on the shelves, dazzling under the lights, which stimulate customers' desire to buy.

"Wow!" Zhuang Wenyao couldn't walk when he saw all kinds of cakes, puddings, and donuts, and squeezed Lu Zhiheng's hand excitedly, "Let's buy something to eat and go back? We can replenish our energy when we are tired from studying! "

Lu Zhiheng naturally agreed: "Okay!"

The two picked it up, almost depending on which one to take, and finally filled a basket.

Seeing that there was no more room to fill, Zhuang Wenyao finally decided to stop the sweeping, and suddenly found a treasure at the bottom of the shelf: "Wow, there are spicy strips here!" He bent down and picked up a pack.

"It's not the same as what I ate when I was a child," Lu Zhiheng glanced at it, and said, "But the taste of this kind of food is similar."

"Hmm! Let me see if it's still fifty cents a pack..." Zhuang Wenyao glanced at the price tag, and suddenly said loudly, "Five yuan?! The price has increased tenfold?!"

Lu Zhiheng shook it in his hand, and couldn't help complaining: "It's simply a price increase but not a quantity..."

"Right! Five yuan, a huge sum of money! You can contract spicy noodles for a week! Sigh...times have changed!"

The scene of two teenagers lamenting the changing times is a bit comical.But they live in an era of rapid social development, and they may not be aware of it in their daily life. When they suddenly look back, they find that they have witnessed so many changes, such as the entry of junk food in canteens.

Zhuang Wenyao put it back on the shelf, "I don't really want to eat it now, I don't know why I was so obsessed with it when I was a child..."

"Because I'm very happy." Lu Zhiheng said, "I didn't have any pocket money when I was young, and I couldn't afford a packet of spicy noodles for [-] cents. Occasionally, some classmates bought some and gave me a little, and I would be very happy all day long!"

Zhuang Wenyao: "I'll give it to you every time, right? After school."

Lu Zhiheng smiled: "So I am very happy every day!"

"Hey hey hey..."

The two went to checkout.

Zhuang Wenyao: "Let me pay together. After all, if you want to send someone under the fence, it should be regarded as a meeting gift."

Lu Zhiheng smiled: "Okay."

When the clerk was checking the goods, they saw an ice cream machine on the counter, and the smell in the store should be half of the credit.

Zhuang Wenyao watched, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and Lu Zhiheng said: "Then I'll treat you to ice cream, and I'll treat it as the spicy sticks I bought when I was a child."

"Hey, good!" Zhuang Wenyao immediately beamed with joy: I never thought that the "friendship investment" when I was a child would one day "realize"!

Lu Zhiheng scanned the label on the machine: "Original, Strawberry, Matcha, Sea Salt... What flavor do you want?"

"Hmm... sea salt flavor!"

Not surprising at all.Lu Zhiheng smiled and said to the clerk: "Brother, please order another ice cream with sea salt flavor."

It is very boring to be on duty at night. Suddenly, two handsome guys came to take care of me, and the clerk's face suddenly glowed: "Okay, please wait~"

Zhuang Wenyao asked him, "Aren't you going to eat?"

Lu Zhiheng: "I'm so full from dinner that I can't eat anymore."

"OK."

The little brother packed the egg trays and rolled them a huge cone.

The ice cream is a soft milky blue, as if a piece of azure blue was torn from a corner of the sky, thrown into the cream, and melted with stirring.

"Thank you!" Zhuang Wenyao took it with a smile on his face, "This color is so pretty!"

"En!" Lu Zhiheng nodded, with a smile on his brows and eyes.

"Reminds me of that Polaroid." Zhuang Wenyao continued, "Obviously I got it in a lottery. Last time, the young lady insisted that someone else bought it. I don't understand..."

Lu Zhiheng pulled the corner of his mouth stiffly: "Maybe I remembered it wrong."

"There is only this one in Quanrong City, can you remember it wrong?" Zhuang Wenyao didn't seem to buy it, "This kind of 'limited model' is a consumption trap. It's okay to treat it as a prize. Who would pay for it on purpose? Or go Hot pot shop to buy."

"..." Taking advantage of him: I can't laugh.

At this time, the clerk brother packed the things: "Thank you for your patronage, and welcome to visit next time!"

Zhuang Wenyao took over the full bag: "Thank you brother! Bye~"

After leaving the shop, Lu Zhiheng stretched out his hand to him: "I'll take it, you still want ice cream."

"Oh, yes!" Zhuang Wenyao obediently, handed him the bag, held the ice cream in both hands, and held it in front of Lu Zhiheng with a pleasant smile, "Give the first bite to the senior first!"

Lu Zhiheng was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Eat it, I won't eat it..."

"Try it!" Zhuang Wenyao was very insistent, holding the ice cream closer to his mouth, "It's so beautiful, don't you feel tempted?"

Lu Zhiheng looked at him, and smiled: "It's very beautiful, and my heart is moved." Respect is worse than obedience, he lowered his head, opened his lips slightly, and licked off the tip of the ice cream.

The surface of the cream is a bit melted and slightly cool, but the taste is dense and soft, not too cold.The freshness and saltiness of the sea salt blend the sweetness of the cream into an ambiguous taste, floating on the lips, teeth and tongue, like sweet clouds in the sky, accidentally falling into the ocean, playing in the underwater world After a whole day, returning to the sky at night, I still miss the depth of the sea, but I don't realize that I have been infected with the taste of the sea.

"Delicious!" Lu Zhiheng licked his lips and smiled, the silkworms under his eyes bulged, tender and cute, "The taste is very special."

"...Really?" Zhuang Wenyao stared blankly at Lu Zhiheng eating ice cream, talking with a smile, sticking out the tip of his pink tongue to lick off the milky blue on his lips, and imitating his example, bowing his head and going bald He took a sip of the cream at the top, but his eyes did not leave Lu Zhiheng's lips.

The sea salt-flavored ice cream tastes amazing at the first bite.But when the cream melted in his mouth, Zhuang Wenyao felt an indescribable sense of emptiness, so he took another big mouthful of cream.

But still difficult to digest.

Seeing his silence, Lu Zhiheng asked, "How is it?"

Zhuang Wenyao came back to his senses, looked away from his lips, and nodded sharply: "Yeah, delicious!"

Lu Zhiheng looked at him and smiled.

"Here," Zhuang Wenyao handed the cone to him again, pointing to the side, "Take another bite, I haven't licked it before!"

"It doesn't matter if you lick it." This time Lu Zhiheng didn't refuse any more, and obediently took another sip.

The two little greedy cats have one bite for you and one bite for me, and they finished eating before they got home.

The author has something to say:

Zhuang: I want to kiss you, but I don't know

Lu: I am also waiting for the bamboo horse to open up today
