It was when students left school in the afternoon, and many people were eating in the store. When they saw us, many people took out their mobile phones and secretly took pictures.
Enduring dissatisfaction with this shop, I pushed her to find an empty table to sit down on. It’s my first time eating in this street snack bar.
Eighty pieces of Mala Tang, but she eats more happiness than tens of thousands of pieces of western food.
Although I don’t think this taste is delicious, I rarely ate two more bites because of the person sitting opposite me.
Coming out of Mala Tang shop, Krista pointed to the tea shop across the road, looked up to me, and said, “The milk tea in this shop is very delicious. My best friend and I named a bubble tea in this shop ‘Soul Mate’. Every time, no matter who goes out, we shout and bring back a cup of ‘Soul’ to understand each other’s meaning.”
She pointed to the shop next door and said, “There are egg tarts in this cake shop. Let’s buy some.”
Along the way, like a commentator, she told me about this street she was familiar with. I felt that she talked a lot in an environment where she felt safe for the first time.
I think she should be a very lively and cheerful girl when she is around her father.
Krista’s POV
While walking, Cheney suddenly stopped.
I looked up at him. “Why did you stop?”
He raised his eyebrows. “Do you want to go to your school?”
“Forget it, and there should be many people in the school at this time.”
“It doesn’t matter. We are not shady.” He turned around, pushed me, and went to school.
As soon as I entered the gate, the familiarity came to me.
Cheney asked, “Where do you want to go? I’ll push you.”
“The football field.”
I stretched out my hand to show the way forward. “Go ahead, pass the maple lane, and turn right.”
Walking into the maple lane, I looked up. “This road is the most romantic road in our school. The maple leaves turn red in autumn, and the whole road will become beautiful, especially when the leaves fall. This autumn, let’s take a look.”
“Good.”
I didn’t expect him to say yes. “You really said yes?” I paused, then look at him. “Or are you joking?”
I shook my head and continue to tell him. “I sincerely invite you to enjoy the beautiful scenery. If you don’t want to, I will definitely not force it, but since you are willing, we will make an appointment.”
He scoffed and said nothing.
When we came to the football field, he sat on the bottom step of the stands, while I was sitting in a wheelchair beside him.
Cheney looked at me. “Why did you choose this place, to see handsome guys?”
“If I really wanted to see handsome guys, I wouldn’t come here. There are many handsome guys on the basketball team. Besides, if they are handsome, they can’t be more handsome than you? You used to be recognized by women as a DIA bachelor.” I looked at him and smiled.
He crossed his legs. “It used to be, but now it isn’t?”
I bit my lips, “You are still mine for the time being, so of course, it can’t be counted now. When you are single again, you can continue to be your DIA bachelor.”
He looked into the distance and did not speak.
After sitting for nearly half an hour, I recovered from my deep thought, only to find that many students heard the sound around, taking pictures secretly in the distance.
I was a little worried and said, “Should we go, or will we make headlines again tomorrow?”
“Before the news, everyone has become accustomed to it. Now our behavior is no longer a show of love. If you want to make headlines, you have to do this.” He said, got up and kissed my lips.
I looked at him and said, “Hey, I’m not going to make headlines!”
He looked in a good mood and said, “You never seem to have told me about your ex-boyfriend. How did you meet, and how did he impress you?”
I looked at him and didn’t expect him to ask this question, “What’s there to talk about a man who betrayed me?”
“Then tell me how this love rat attracted you at the beginning.”
I thought about it and looked up at the stars in the night sky. “He has great perseverance.”
“Perseverance? Is this the reason why a man attracts a woman?”
“Since I entered the university, there have been many people chasing me, but unlike him, there are very few people who can persist from freshman to junior. At that time, I was probably moved by his persistence. After all, a man was willing to waste his best three years on me, and his courage is commendable.”
Cheney shook his head and smiled. “So, because he chased you the longest?”
I nodded. “Hmm.”
“Not because you’re in love with him?”
I shrugged and looked at him. “In fact, until now, I don’t know what it feels like to love someone. I feel in my heart that love is a responsibility. When a person is willing to return the feelings to another person and be responsible for this feeling, it is love.”
He scoffed. “What kind of love is this?”
I looked at him curiously. “What do you think love is?”
He hugged me and said, “Love is a wonderful thing. Everyone has different opinions, but I can be sure that your feelings for him was not love.”
“Didn’t you love someone? How do you feel when you love someone?”
He frowned. “Why did the topic come to me again?”
I looked at him. “I’m curious about Cheney, who is so high above. Tell me, what will it be like to love someone?”
“This kind of thing can only be understood but not explained. If you love her, you will naturally understand it.” He said, bringing the topic back to “What did he do in the process of chasing you?”
“He would meet me on the playground and canteen every morning and occupy a seat for me in class. In those days, he would buy us milk tea. Although it’s not my birthday, he would prepare a surprise for me. He also knows that I do not do birthdays.”
He disdains, “That’s it? Then you are too easy to be wooed. No wonder you would be cheated by him.”
I gave him a white look.
He hooked his lips and immediately asked, “You just said you didn’t celebrate your birthday? Why?”
I looked up at the sky. “My father left on my birthday.”
He was silent.
