On a hot summer day, the girl squatted under a big tree and pulled the green grass on the ground. Her hands were covered with green, but she still pulled. There were already quite a few grass leaves at her feet.
Noon in summer is when the sun is at its hottest. Even under the trees it is not much cooler. Sweat drops into the grass and turns into dewdrops.
Suddenly, she felt a cool breeze and thought it was the wind. When she turned around, she saw a boy of the same age squatting beside her, fanning her with a fan in his hand.
She turned her head with some disgust and asked, "Why are you fanning me? My mother said that if someone is too attentive to you, he is either a traitor or a thief. Tell me, do you want me to buy you a toy? Here, here you go." As she spoke, the girl took out a ten-dollar bill from her small bag and threw it at the boy's feet, "Go buy it."
The boy was stunned for a moment, and angrily threw the money at the girl's feet: "I don't want your money."
"Huh?" The girl turned around and looked at him with some amusement. Most of her friends had always played with her for money, but this boy didn't want any money, which was quite interesting.
"What do you want?"
The boy shook his head: "Can I play with you?"
The girl sneered: "Children nowadays are really scheming. Don't think that I will think you really want to be friends with me just because you said that. Isn't it because I'm rich?"
The boy was not angry at her saying that. Instead, he pointed to a house not far away and said, "I just moved here. Look, that's my home."
Looking in the direction he pointed, the girl rolled her eyes and said, "So you're the new guy next door. I advise you to move out as soon as possible, otherwise you'll have a hard time in the future."
"Why?" The boy didn't understand.
"You'll know after staying here for two days." After saying that, the girl stood up, brushed off the dirt on her body and turned to go home. Although she was a little girl, her every move was mature beyond her age.
When she got to the door of her house, she held her breath and listened to the sound inside. There was a "bang" sound, as if a vase hit the door. She sighed helplessly, thinking that they had finished quarreling, but she didn't expect that the "war" was still going on.
"Hey, we are neighbors. Can we go to school together in the future?" The boy said with a smile while lying on the low wall.
"Hmph, don't think that I will go to school with you just because you attract my attention like this. I hate self-righteous boys like you." The girl took out the key, tiptoed to open the door and walked in. As the door slammed shut, the boy's smile was also locked outside the door.
She hated this man, hated his smiling face, and hated that he lived next door to her.
Her parents were still blaming each other for all sorts of mistakes, and it seemed that only by constantly insulting each other could they vent their dissatisfaction. At that time, she didn't understand why two people like this wanted to live together and give birth to her.
She walked around them like a transparent person and returned to the room, closing the door and shutting out the unbearable curses.
Even many years later, when he recalled the first time they met, Jian Yan couldn't help laughing. Those pretentious words sounded very much like the classic lines in many CEO novels. He even imagined that she would lift his chin like a black-bellied CEO, smile evilly and say, "Little goblin, don't think that I will look at you differently just because you attract my attention like this. This CEO doesn't like self-righteous people like you."
"What are you laughing at?" his friends asked him.
Jian Yan replied: "An annoying little goblin."
