I didn't expect that these two sisters have the same interests and hobbies.
"Since she's not here, let's go out for a walk together. Oh, and I brought her some food. This way, you don't have to worry about her not having lunch when you're not back."
Wang Jianjun said this and took out two lunch boxes from his backpack.
"You can really turn anything into something from this backpack of yours."
Shen Chuxia found it a little funny. Wang Jianjun's backpack was like a treasure chest.
"My backpack is really a treasure bag. Just name any item and I can make it for you."
"You are such a boaster. Why don't you conjure up a fountain pen for me... ah!? You... you really conjured one?!"
Looking at the pen in Wang Jianjun's hand, Shen Chuxia's face was full of disbelief.
This guy must have known what he was thinking, as he actually conjured up a pen.
"How did you do that?"
Shen Chuxia thought this should be a trick, just like the jugglers who performed under the overpass before, except that his skills were more advanced.
"Because we have a tacit understanding, I can guess what you are thinking."
"Humph, I don't believe it."
Shen Chuxia was unwilling to believe it, but she couldn't resist her curiosity and kept asking, but the bad guy Wang Jianjun just refused to say anything.
After they chatted and laughed for a while, Wang Jianjun suggested that they go out for a walk together.
Shen Chuxia readily agreed.
"Is there anywhere you want to go?"
"Well... I want to go to West Lake Park. My mother often took me and my sister there when we were young, but we went there less often later on."
"Okay, let's go there."
West Lake Park is not far away and is near Nanluoguxiang.
It takes less than half an hour to get there by bike.
Shen Chuxia was not so reserved this time. She got into the car directly and put her arm around Wang Jianjun's waist, but her heartbeat was still a little fast.
Arriving at West Lake Park, Wang Jianjun parked the car and then strolled in the park with Shen Chuxia.
There is not much to see in West Lake Park in winter.
The grass and trees are withered, and there is no green at all.
The weather was so cold that the lake had begun to freeze over.
Because of the cold weather, the young couples that you usually see are rarely seen now.
As the two were walking, a cold wind suddenly blew.
Shen Chuxia couldn’t help but shiver and rubbed her hands on her arms.
Wang Jianjun slapped his forehead, wondering how could he have forgotten about this!
"Wait a minute Chuxia, I have a gift for you."
As Wang Jianjun spoke, he took out a wolfskin scarf, hat and gloves from his backpack.
"I was going to give it to you last time. It keeps you warm in the winter. Come and try it on to see if it fits you."
Shen Chuxia was a little surprised. This was the first time she received such a formal gift.
"Your treasure bag is really big. And it cost you a lot of money. What kind of leather is it made of? It must be very expensive."
Shen Chuxia put on a hat, a scarf and gloves, and immediately she no longer felt cold. Furry fur is better at keeping warm than cotton.
"It's made of wolf skin."
"Wolf skin!"
Shen Chuxia looked incredible.
"I went to Inner Mongolia before and was lucky enough to hunt a few wolves. The things on you are made from the wolf skins they peeled off."
"That's too dangerous! Don't take risks again next time!"
When she heard that Wang Jianjun was actually going to hunt wolves, Shen Chuxia couldn't help but feel a little worried.
That's a wolf, not some random cat or dog.
"Oh, don't worry. I'm a very good shot."
"Just try to be brave! What if you really encounter danger? You have to make people worry about you."
Looking at Shen Chuxia's concerned look, Wang Jianjun smiled and blurted out:
"Then you will worry about me too."
Shen Chuxia blushed again after hearing this. She glared at Wang Jianjun and muttered, "I'm not going to pay attention to you anymore!"
Then he turned and walked towards the lake.
Wang Jianjun followed happily behind.
After walking along the lake for a while, Shen Chuxia, who was revisiting the old place, became chatty and introduced the nearby places to Wang Jianjun one by one.
"When my mother was still alive, she often brought me and my sister here to play. Every time we clamored to eat candied haws, my mother would buy a bunch and then the three of us would share it."
When talking about her mother, Shen Chuxia's expression became a little sad.
Wang Jianjun felt a little distressed, knowing that this was bringing up her sad story.
He was thinking about how to comfort her.
Shen Chuxia suddenly raised her head and looked at Wang Jianjun seriously:
"Jianjun.. there are things I've always wanted to tell you."
"You talk, I'm listening."
"It's about the two of us, I know how you feel about me.
But my family background is not good. My father used to be a capitalist, but he died early and I have basically no impression of him.
My mother was just my father's concubine. After my father passed away, the family property was divided up between his original wife and my nominal brothers.
My mother left the house with me and my younger sister, as well as the private savings she had saved over the years.
"Then your mother..."
When mentioning her mother, Shen Chuxia's eyes became red.
"She brought us sisters to live in the house that our grandparents left her. Because she was used to the life of a rich lady, we three had a hard time at first, but mom managed to get by. But later she became ill from overworking herself, and she passed away when I was fourteen."
At this point, Shen Chuxia couldn’t help but wipe the tears from her eyes.
Wang Jianjun walked up to her and held her arm, wanting to give her some comfort.
