Chapter 41 Let’s Be Childhood Sweethearts
I had almost learned how to drive a car, and then I played around in the square for a long time.
There are many small stalls selling snacks here, selling sweet and crispy sesame candies, icy and refreshing candied haws, and cotton candies that can turn your face into a little cat...
Unfortunately, no matter how thirsty Xu Cheng said she was, Lin Wanzhou refused to let Xu Cheng use her water cup, so Xu Cheng had no choice but to go to a nearby shop to buy a Coke.
As the sun was setting, Xu Cheng said to Lin Wanzhou, "Call your father and ask him to pick us up. It's already late."
Lin Wanzhou was holding a small windmill in her hand, which was spinning in the breeze. She fluttered her butterfly-like eyelashes and looked at Xu Cheng with hope in her eyes.
"Don't let Dad pick us up. Dad is so annoying. Xu Cheng, why don't you just ride your bike and take me home."
Xu Cheng pouted and said indignantly, "This place is far from the family compound! If I take you back tomorrow, your legs will be broken. If you don't love me, please don't hurt me!"
"Xu Cheng is so petty. He has been holding a grudge about the water cup for so long!" Lin Wanzhou also turned his head to the other side angrily.
A part-time college student who was setting up a stall in the distance set up a speaker, which played Milk Tea Lun's songs one after another. At this time, the song "Can't Open Your Mouth" happened to be playing.
“I just couldn’t open my mouth to let her know.”
"I will definitely take care of you and make you laugh"
…
"us……"
"Then..."
The two of them suddenly turned their heads and spoke at the same time, their eyes meeting. Xu Cheng spoke first, "You go first."
Lin Wanzhou blushed slightly, "Let's compete! The loser will listen to the winner."
Xu Cheng nodded, "Okay, what do you want to compete in?"
That was a close call!
He was originally prepared to surrender and say, "Then I'll take you back on my bike," but he didn't expect that there was still room for maneuver.
"Let's guess the song. This one's over with 'Can't Open Your Mouth'. Let's see who can guess what the next song is first!!"
Xu Cheng agreed immediately, "Then let me guess. I grew up listening to his songs."
“Tsk, who isn’t?” Lin Wanzhou clenched his fists and went over all of Milk Tea Lun’s songs in his mind.
Sparks flew wildly between the two people.
"A copper coin in the square, sadness is very secret..."
As soon as the prelude sounded, Xu Cheng's DNA moved and he spoke confidently.
“I’m very familiar with this song.”
Lin Wanzhou frowned, her lips turned pale. Xu Cheng glanced at her, sighed, and pretended to be lost in thought.
"call."
"So familiar... I can't even say it..."
Lin Wanzhou was thinking to herself. She opened her mouth slightly and hummed a few words along with the song, "Da da da da da da... I remember it!"
She jumped up with full energy, "I'm sorry!"
"Oh! Yes, so annoying. Why didn't I hear it?" Xu Cheng seemed to suddenly realize something and scratched his scalp in annoyance.
"whee……"
Lin Wanzhou put her hands on her waist proudly.
"Xu Cheng, you lose, you have to ride your bike to take me home!"
"Got it~"
Lin Wanzhou sat happily in the back seat, tiptoeing to hook Xu Cheng's calf.
"Xu Cheng, you're a fake fan, you can't even tell that!"
"Oh, yes, yes."
The spring breeze is gentle, the shadows of the trees are slender, and the asphalt road is shining with golden light under the afterglow of the setting sun.
The shadows of the boys and girls on the bicycles were also stretched very long.
Lin Wanzhou imitated the heroines in idol dramas and sat sideways on the back seat of the bicycle. Normally when her mother took her, she was not allowed to sit like this.
Xu Cheng pedaled the bike vigorously, "Lin Wanzhou, if you don't hold me, aren't you afraid of falling off?"
“No, no need…” Lin Wanzhou blushed slightly, “I don’t think it will fall.”
"Because this is my first time riding a bike with someone else, I'm worried that the bike will shake and you'll fall off." Xu Cheng said this righteously. This was indeed the first time he had been with someone after his rebirth.
The car body shook slightly under his control, and Lin Wanzhou grabbed the corner of his clothes in fear.
"Huh?"
Lin Wanzhou was surprised. She raised her hand and touched Xu Cheng's body. Her eyes widened in surprise. "Xu Cheng, you seem to be much stronger than before."
Of course it’s all thanks to the exercise I’ve been doing these days.
"Ahem, ahem, Lin Wanzhou, you're going to strangle me to death!"
Lin Wanzhou held Xu Cheng's clothes very tightly, and the original white shirt was almost torn by her.
She let go of his hand embarrassedly, pursed her lips, and after making up her mind, she put her arms around Xu Cheng's waist with a blushing cheek, and did not forget to clarify.
"I hugged you because I had no choice!"
"Okay, okay, I get it. You're already a big girl."
They rode for a very long time, their shadows gradually getting longer and longer, and they walked together past a low wall covered with ivy, a tube-shaped building with slightly yellowed walls, and an old stone bridge with gurgling water.
After going to school, Xu Cheng has been arranging his life very tightly. It has been a long time since he has calmed down and gone around with Lin Wanzhou.
It was a rare period of quiet time.
Lin Wanzhou sat sideways in the back seat, with one arm around Xu Cheng's waist, muttering all the way.
"Obviously, I think that skirt is really pretty, but my mom insisted that I wasn't old enough to wear it, so she refused to buy it for me. She also said that I was a silly girl who was becoming more and more conceited..."
"It was the same when I went to the hair salon before. She wanted to get a perm she liked, but her mother wouldn't allow it. I told her that I had spent money on it, but she only wanted to let her do it herself. She was really selfish..."
Xu Cheng smiled helplessly, "You can pull out the oxygen tube if you want in the future. We are about to cross the road, so hurry up and run."
"oh."
Lin Wanzhou jumped off the bike lightly, grabbed the corner of Xu Cheng's clothes with one hand, and trotted across the road beside the bicycle.
After parking the car aside, the two stood in front of a quiet lawn to rest.
"Xu Cheng, grow up quickly. Big boys are very strong. This way I won't have to run down here." Lin Wanzhou panted with small gulps, his chest heaving slightly.
"Hey, no matter how strong I am, I'm going to be tired after riding you such a long distance, okay..." Xu Cheng wiped the sweat from his forehead. His legs were sore now.
Lin Wanzhou stuck out her tongue embarrassedly, "Are you sweating a lot?"
"Yes." Xu Cheng pinched his collar and smelled it. "It smells like sweat."
Sniff, sniff.
Lin Wanzhou tiptoed close to Xu Cheng's neck and smelled it. "It's okay. It smells like laundry detergent. It smells nice and fragrant."
Xu Cheng felt a little embarrassed and turned his head away.
"Xu Cheng." Feeling the corner of his clothes being pulled, Xu Cheng turned his head and a piece of bear biscuit was stuffed directly into his mouth.
Lin Wanzhou patted the biscuit crumbs in his hand and said unhappily, "You didn't even tell me last time what we were going to do after we stopped being friends?"
Xu Cheng accepted the feeding calmly, broke the biscuits into pieces with his teeth, and looked away awkwardly.
"Let's just be childhood sweethearts."
"Childhood sweethearts..." Lin Wanzhou's voice was clear, and he recited each word softly, his eyes gradually becoming bright.
“Okay!”
"We will be each other's childhood sweethearts from now on!"
"Silly girl." Xu Cheng looked at Lin Wanzhou with a slightly red face.
"We have always been..."
When Xu Cheng returned home in the evening, he felt very tired. He forced himself to stay awake and deal with the website matters.
He was actually a little absent-minded.
"The Lin Wanzhou who used to like holding hands, pinching my face and being very intimate with me is gone. Will she still like me so much in the future..." Xu Cheng suddenly became worried.
“Ding ding ding.”
A sound attracted his attention, and a QQ prompt popped up in the lower right corner of the screen. It was a message from Mr. Zhou.
“Mr. Zhou: Autumn is spring in reverse.”
"Mr. Zhou: Good night."
Xu Cheng pursed his lips.
"Where did you learn this little girl...you've actually started to learn to say this kind of words!"
The corners of his mouth couldn't stop rising.
