Two childish ghosts
Shen Xuyang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly yawned and said, “Then you guys go, I’m sleepy and want to take a nap.”
Shi Nannan looked at Shen Xuyang's pretended listless look and pulled his collar, saying, "You wishful thinking. We are carrying large and small bags while you are sleeping at home. Why don't you go and dream? You are so lazy."
Shen Xuyang said: "You can only dream when you are asleep."
Shi Nannan said: "Don't give me excuses. If you don't want to go, don't eat."
Shen Xuyang sighed helplessly and said weakly: "Okay, can't I go?"
Shi Nannan let go of Shen Xuyang's collar, and he even pretended to be almost unable to stand.
Shi Nannan subconsciously pulled Shen Xuyang's arm. She knew he was pretending, but she couldn't control herself and helped him.
Shi Nannan said: "Chen Xuyang, try to pretend again!"
Shen Xuyang looked at Shi Nannan who was a little angry, and felt quite proud of the fact that she had helped him just now.
Shen Xuyang said a bit meanly: "You don't have to help."
Shi Nan said, "Humph! I'll definitely throw you to death next time. You'll kill yourself sooner or later."
Shen Xuyang said, "Don't keep dying. I'm scared. Don't say this word carelessly. If it comes true and I disappear one day, you will go to heaven crying to find me."
When Shi Nannan heard what Shen Xuyang said, it was as if she had cursed him to death.
Shi Nannan said, "Don't rely on me. If you die one day, it will have absolutely nothing to do with me. I won't shed a single tear for you."
Shen Xuyang looked at Shi Nan's duplicity and said, "It's better this way."
Wen Yu took the basket and called out to them, "Alright, stop arguing. If you two continue arguing, I think dinner will become a midnight snack."
Shi Nannan glared at Shen Xuyang unhappily and went straight past her to find Chen Xing.
Shen Xuyang smiled and followed.
The four of them went out to the nearest supermarket, and Wen Yu went straight to the vegetable section as soon as he entered.
On the way here, they had already assigned their respective tasks. Wen Yu and Chen Xing were responsible for the ingredients, while the hot pot base and seasonings were given to Shi Nannan and Shen Xuyang.
Seeing that Wen Yu looked very familiar, Chen Xing asked curiously, "Do you often come here to buy vegetables?"
Wen Yu pulled out a bag and wanted to put some rapeseed in it. "If I have time, I cook for myself. I usually go to the nearby vegetable market. The aunties there are very welcoming and I always have a chat with them."
Because it was the Spring Festival, the aunts and uncles who bought vegetables at the vegetable market went home to celebrate the New Year, so they could only come to the supermarket.
Chen Xing looked at Wen Yu, who seemed very experienced in selecting vegetables, and really didn't know which window God had closed for him.
Wen Yu is still a high school student, but he has the stability of a mature man. Not only can he cook, he also keeps the house very clean and is good at taking care of people. These are all plus points.
Chen Xing stared at Wen Yu in a daze, feeling that he exuded an attractive charm that made her unable to take her eyes off him.
"Chen Xing, would you like some mushrooms? You can eat them in hot pot or make soup with them."
Wen Yu packed the rapeseed and saw the fresh mushrooms on the other side. He asked the first question but didn't hear Chen Xing's answer.
When Wen Yu turned around, he saw Chen Xing's gaze avoiding him for a moment, and the corners of his mouth secretly rose.
Chen Xing was distracted and said, "Ah? What did you just say? I didn't hear clearly."
Wen Yu repeated it again patiently.
Chen Xing said: "Okay, I like mushrooms very much, I can have some."
Wen Yu nodded, found a bag, picked out a few mushrooms and put them in the shopping cart.
Wen Yu asked, "Is there anything else you want to eat?"
Chen Xing thought of what Shi Nannan had asked her to buy, and said, "Add some lettuce, romaine lettuce, and some garland chrysanthemum, and that should be about it."
Wen Yu took note of everything. After buying the vegetables, they went to the meat stall.
Wen Yu took out three boxes of lamb rolls and beef rolls, as well as shrimp balls, tripe, and bagged fish balls and shrimp balls from the freezer.
After buying these, they went to meet Shi Nannan and Shen Xuyang.
We happened to meet in the beverage area.
Shi Nannan wanted to drink Sprite, and Shen Xuyang wanted to drink Coke. The two of them were about to fight, each holding a bottle.
Passersby couldn't help but look at it for a few more seconds, thinking that something big had happened.
Chen Xing and Wen Yu looked at each other, feeling helpless about taking care of the child.
Chen Xing said, "Are you two childish? If you didn't have the face and height of a high school student, people would think you were only three years old."
Shi Nannan said, "I wanted to drink Sprite, but he insisted on getting Coke. He was just deliberately going against me."
"I'm a girl, shouldn't he give in to me a little?"
Shen Xuyang said: "I just want to drink Coke this time. I always listened to you before, but can't you listen to me this time?"
Shi Nannan insisted, "Not this time, I'll listen to you next time. I like to have Sprite with hot pot."
Shen Xuyang refused to give in and said, "Why? You always say next time. Count how many times this has happened. When will you be honest with me?"
Shi Nannan said shamelessly: "I don't care, you have to listen to me this time."
Shen Xuyang also held on and refused to let go, saying, “No, you must listen to me.”
Chen Xing and Wen Yu were almost embarrassed standing there, and people passing by were secretly laughing at them.
No matter how old these two people get, they always retain the childishness of a three-year-old, the innocence of a six-year-old, the childishness of a nine-year-old, and the mentality of a twelve-year-old.
Wen Yu sighed. In the past, there was only Shen Xuyang around him who was noisy. Now that he had Shi Nannan, he realized that what was even more annoying was when Shi Nannan and Shen Xuyang argued with each other.
Wen Yu couldn't bear it anymore, so he handed the shopping cart to Chen Xing and moved directly between the two of them.
Wen Yu took the Sprite from Shi Nannan with his left hand, and snatched the Coke from Shen Xuyang with his right hand.
Wen Yu said, "Why not just buy both? Why do you have to fight over them?"
Wen Yu left a message to the two people who were standing there in a daze.
Chen Xing looked at the extra Sprite and Coke in the shopping cart, and it had to be Wen Yu.
Shi Nannan and Shen Xuyang still disliked each other. They raised their eyes, crossed their arms, and refused to let the other leave the scene.
Finally, after paying the bill, the four of them walked out of the supermarket, each carrying a bag.
When I came out of the supermarket, the sun was almost invisible and the sky was gradually covered by the darkness of night.
Chen Xing said, "The forecast seems to say it will snow today, but it doesn't look like it will snow today."
Wen Yu looked up at the sky, which was gradually losing its luster, and said, "If it doesn't snow this time, there will be another time. What's supposed to come will eventually come. Maybe the snowflakes you want to see are waiting for you too. They're just looking for the right time to appear."
Chen Xing sighed casually, and Wen Yu actually said it was very beautiful.
Chen Xing smiled. Wen Yu's emotions are always stable and he can give more emotional value to others. Such a person deserves to be cherished whether as a friend or a partner.
Shi Nannan suddenly saw a grandfather selling candied haws on the roadside. She was already hungry and weak, but her eyes suddenly lit up.
Shi Nannan said, "Xingxing, there's a place selling candied haws. I haven't had any in a long time."
Chen Xing followed Shi Nannan's gaze and also saw the candied haws across the street.
It was still the candied haws stuck on the straw target. When I was a child, I often heard the shouting near my home, but later I didn’t realize it, and it became less and less.
Wen Yu noticed that Chen Xing's pace was gradually slowing down and saw the desire in her eyes.
Wen Yu asked, "Want to eat?"
Chen Xing said: "When I was a child in the countryside, I often saw the grandfather selling candied haws, but I never ate them."
“Then when I grew up and wanted to eat it, I couldn’t find it anymore.”
Wen Yu's heart trembled when he heard Chen Xing's somewhat sad tone.
Chen Xing didn't tell Wen Yu whether she wanted to eat at the moment, but Wen Yu knew the answer.
Wen Yu ran across the street and bought two candied haws, gave one to Shi Nannan, and took the other to Chen Xing.
Wen Yu said, "This is for you. I picked out a big, red sugar-coated haws specially for you. Would you like to try it?"
Chen Xing looked at the candied haws in front of her. She took it from Wen Yu's hand, then looked up at Wen Yu's smiling face.
Chen Xing was very touched. If someone had bought her a candied haws at that time, she thought she would remember him for a long time.
There were stars in Chen Xing's eyes, but they disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Chen Xing smiled and took a bite. The sugar-coated hawthorn spread in her mouth, sour and sweet, just the taste she liked.
Chen Xing said, "It's delicious."
When Wen Yu heard Chen Xing say "delicious", and saw her eating happily, he also smiled in his heart.
Shi Nannan took the candied haws and swallowed a hawthorn ball in one gulp, and even ate it in front of Shen Xuyang on purpose.
Shen Xuyang felt like he could see it but couldn't get it. He said angrily, "Wen Yu, why are you so stingy? There are four of us. Not only do you not want to eat, but have you forgotten about me?"
Wen Yu was originally still looking at Chen Xing and laughing, but was suddenly interrupted by Shen Xuyang. He said in a somewhat unhappy tone: "You didn't say you wanted to eat it, can't you buy it yourself?"
Shen Xuyang said confidently, "You didn't ask me. The problem is that when you ran over to buy candied haws, you didn't call me. Now that grandpa has gone far away, how can I catch up with a cyclist with my two legs?"
Wen Yu examined Shen Xuyang's whole body. Why did he feel that Shen Xuyang had no masculinity at all in the past two days?
Wen Yu said: "If you want to eat, then find a way yourself. How can you enjoy it without putting in some effort?"
Shen Xuyang didn't have much strength to begin with. The bag in his hand was the heaviest thing, and the two bottles of drinks were in his bag. Now he had to gasp for breath after walking every two steps.
Shen Xuyang said: “If I wasn’t hungry, I wouldn’t want to eat candied haws.”
Shen Xuyang's stomach was empty, and when he saw Shi Nannan had something to eat, he wanted to try it no matter what it was.
Wen Yu heard Shen Xuyang's panting and laughed at him, "Shen Xuyang, you're too weak. You're already panting after just this little bit of exercise. Will you still have the energy to play basketball in the future?"
Shen Xuyang also realized that he was running out of strength. He had spent half of the winter vacation lying in bed, and today was the first time he had walked such a long distance since the vacation.
Shen Xuyang said: "What are you laughing at? I just didn't eat. If I were full, I could run ten laps without even getting out of breath."
Wen Yu smiled and said nothing.
Shi Nannan heard it and said, "Just blow it. You lie down before you even start running."
Shi Nannan knew without hesitation that Shen Xuyang definitely couldn't run. He was already thin, and now he looked even thinner, even a little frail.
Shen Xuyang was ridiculed by the three of them. He was furious, but he had no way to refute.
Shen Xuyang swore from this moment on that he would exercise tomorrow and make them slap him in the face for what they said today when school started.
