Marshmallow flavor
In PE class, we did our usual stretching exercises. After running two laps, we had free time. The National Day holiday was here, and a feeling of happiness welled up inside us. Jiang Yanmu and Du Suisui said goodbye at the classroom door, "See you after National Day, Jiang Yanmu."
See you after National Day!
Jiang Yanmu dragged her suitcase to Fu Yanjin's school to wait for her. Sitting on the suitcase, with a milk tea hanging beside her, she listened to a radio drama with her headphones on. When she heard something interesting, Jiang Yanmu would nod and sway her head from time to time. Not long after, Fu Yanjin dragged her suitcase and ran over. "Jiang Xiaoyan—!" Luckily, she caught her in time, otherwise it would have tipped over.
"Slow down, Ayan," Fu Yanjin hugged Jiang Yanmu and kissed her cheek, saying, "Mwah, darling, you're so sweet~ You even brought me my favorite milk tea." Fu Yanjin wanted to kiss her again, but Jiang Yanmu stopped him with her hand. "Mmm."
Okay
My National Day holiday was quite packed. On the first day, I went to Yintai with Fu Yanjin to browse various millet shops. We passed by a millet shop, but it was too far away to see what it looked like. However, its color and shimmering appearance attracted Jiang Yanmu, who curiously pulled Fu Yanjin along. She was so charmed by its cuteness that she kept staring at it the whole way, even placing it next to her when we went to eat.
Fu Yanjin secretly took photos of Jiang Yanmu playing with Gu Zi and posted them on her WeChat Moments, saying, "She's a fun-loving young lady."
"Where are you guys? Take me with you!"
Yintai
"Wait for me! I'm coming right away!"
"We'll be going back soon."
"No, let's play a little longer."
"I've already set off, I'm almost there!!!" Hearing this, she went crazy, trying to get Fu Yanjin's attention again. "Ahhhhh, am I no longer the person you all love the most?"
"Waaaaah"
"Unauthorized personnel are prohibited from entering."
"What, you want to go too?"
"No"
Finally, after Wen Yan's barrage of words, Fu Yanjin relented, "Come on, Wen Yan."
"Okay, Ayan~"
"Hey, that's enough, isn't it?"
"I'll come over later when I hear that."
Wenyan browsed the jewelry store. She spotted a cat-ear hair accessory and bought it. Hearing this, Wenyan casually fiddled with the other accessories. Jiang Yanmu and Fu Yanjin turned their backs and whispered, plotting to put the cat-ear hair accessory on Wenyan. Holding the cat-ear hair accessory in her hand, Wenyan…
"ah "
Jiang Yanmu took out cat-ear hair accessories to show Wen Yan, and asked in a tricky way, "Does it suit you?" Wen Yan replied with a puzzled look, "It suits you."
"Then wear it," Jiang Yanmu said with a smile, handing over the cat-ear hair accessory to Wen Yan.
Now that he heard that, he understood, pointed to himself, and said with a shocked expression, "Me!"
Jiang Yanmu and Fu Yanjin nodded vigorously, "Yes!"
Hearing this, she took a step back in resistance and refused, "No! It's not suitable at all!" Fu Yanjin also brought over a bunch of accessories from the side, "Wenyan, just wear them. You're already here."
Hearing this, she was persuaded and softened. But she pretended to be stubborn, while her body language betrayed her, and she took the cat ear hair accessory from Jiang Yanmu's hand. She still argued at home, "I didn't agree, you guys kept begging me, so I reluctantly wore it."
"Thank you for your help, Wen." Wen Yan, wearing cat-ear hair accessories, awkwardly touched her neck and glanced away. "It looks good! Can I take a picture?" Wen Yan asked.
"Ah... go ahead and take the picture..."
"Thanks"
"Try this one too," Jiang Yanmu said, putting the hair clip on Wenyan's head again, and then clipping it on with the one Fu Yanjin had given her. Wenyan sat there like a doll, looking utterly hopeless as they did whatever they wanted to her.
Fu Yanjin posted photos she had taken all afternoon on her WeChat Moments.
No one commented.
This time, the five little ones went to the amusement park together. Because Jiang Yanmu is afraid of heights, she mostly watched them play. She was sitting on a chair with a drink in her hand when someone walked up to her and said, "Jiang classmate."
"Um?"
"Want some ice cream?" Ye Ziyi asked, handing over the ice cream.
"Eat! Thank you."
"Aren't you going to play?" Jiang Yanmu asked while eating ice cream.
No.
"Oh," the two didn't speak again. Jiang Yanmu quietly ate her ice cream, watching the people coming and going in the amusement park. She spotted a cotton candy stall in the distance. Jiang Yanmu asked Ye Ziyi, who was sitting next to her, "Ye, would you like some cotton candy?"
I won't eat it.
"Okay, I'll go buy it then."
"Hmm," Ye Ziyi said, watching Jiang Yanmu run away. "Grandma, I want a strawberry flavor."
"well"
Here you go, little girl.
"Thank you, Grandma."
Jiang Yanmu, holding the cotton candy, asked again, "Are you sure you don't want to try it?"
"No, I don't like this."
"Oh, okay," Jiang Yanmu said, her mouth covered in cotton candy. Fu Yanjin and the others had finished playing and ran over, stuffing a mouthful of cotton candy into Jiang Yanmu's mouth. Jiang Yanmu lost her grip, and the cotton candy got all over her nose and clothes. "Sorry, Jiang Xiaoyan. I'll buy you another one, wait for me!"
"Hey, it's okay..." The person had already run far away. Jiang Yanmu first found a restroom to wash off the cotton candy stains. Since she couldn't use her hands, she asked Ye Ziyi to send a message to Fu Yanjin: "We're in the restroom."
[Okay, coming right away!] Fu Yanjin stuffed the cotton candy into Shen Kuo's hand and said, "Hold this for me, it's hard to take it into the toilet."
"Okay," the person left, but Shen Kuo was still staring at the cotton candy in his hand. Hearing this, with the candy in his mouth, he leaned against the tree and said, "It wasn't bought for you, why are you staring at it so intently?"
Shen Kuo simply turned his back.
Because of handling the cotton candy, Jiang Yanmu's skirt got wet, so Ye Ziyi took off his light jacket and tied it around her skirt. Jiang Yanmu froze, too stiff to move.
"Thanks"
"fine"
"Your clothes are all wet, Jiang Xiaoyan. Go buy some clothes to change into later."
"Okay!" Jiang Yanmu and Fu Yanjin both spotted a blue dress with a bow, below the knee, and picked it up together. They exchanged a glance and laughed.
"You two are so in sync, Jiang Xiaoyan!"
"Yes, I'll go change it first."
"Okay," Jiang Yanmu carefully took off Ye Ziyi's coat, put on the dress, and walked out, clutching the hem of the dress. "How... is it?"
"Good-looking" Ye Ziyi
"Beautiful, beautiful, Jiang Xiaoyan!"
"It's so beautiful!" Hearing this, they kept clapping.
"As long as it looks good," Jiang Yanmu said, her face flushed to her ears, staring down at the shoes and clutching the hem of her skirt.
Because she always watched the main characters on TV go camping, Jiang Yanmu suddenly had the idea to go camping herself. At three in the morning, she called Fu Yanjin and said, "Jiang Xiaoyan, you can't take revenge on me just because I always call you in the morning at three in the morning."
While on the phone, I was so focused on camping that I forgot the time. "Sorry, Ayan. I didn't notice the time. You go back to sleep."
"Um……"
While hiding in the dark tent, Fu Yanjin revealed Jiang Yanmu's misdeeds from the previous night to the others. "You guys don't know, Jiang Xiaoyan called me at three in the morning. I thought something was wrong. This morning she found out she wanted to go camping, so what could I do? If she wanted to, I'd go with her." Hearing this, Jiang Yanmu made an excuse to go gather firewood and slipped away. "I'll go gather firewood."
Jiang Yanmu didn't know the way and stayed in the woods for a while. On her way back, she realized she had no sense of direction and had forgotten her number. She wandered around the same place for almost forty minutes. When she was almost done, she realized Jiang Yanmu hadn't returned after forty minutes. "It's been so long, and Jiang Xiaoyan still hasn't come back," Fu Yanjin said, just as she was about to go into the woods to look for her. Ye Ziyi spoke up, "I'll go."
Okay, be careful.
Ye Ziyi searched through the woods while calling out to Jiang Yanmu, "Jiang, Jiang, Jiang!"
Jiang Yanmu sat on a tree stump, holding a pile of firewood. She vaguely heard a sound not far away, looked up, and called out, "Is that Ayan?"
"It's Ye Ziyi," the other party replied.
Jiang Yanmu immediately stood up, clutching the firewood, not noticing a splinter protruding from the tree stump, which cut her ankle. "I don't know how to get back."
"It's okay, I recognize it. Do you want me to help you carry it?"
"No"
"good"
"I'm waiting for your firewood, I'm freezing!"
"Sorry, I'm lost."
"Luckily, Xiao Ye came to find you, otherwise you would have had to stay here."
"Um……"
They built a triangular structure out of firewood, hung the bucket containing the instant noodles on it, and used leftover firewood to start a fire to cook the noodles and various toppings they had brought. Everyone held a large tea mug, the kind older generation used for drinking water, and the instant noodles tasted even better with it.
Sitting on the lawn, he looked up at the stars. Hearing that she hadn't come, he lost interest and went straight back to sleep. Because he'd gotten up too early last night and this morning, Fu Yanjin soon fell asleep leaning against Jiang Yanmu. "There are so many stars today, look, Yanjin!" Turning her head and finding Fu Yanjin asleep, she gently nudged her. "Yanjin, wake up. Don't sleep here, you'll catch a cold." Jiang Yanmu nudged Fu Yanjin again, saying, "Yanjin..."
"Um?"
"Ayan, go back to your tent and sleep."
"Um……"
I'll be back in a bit.
"Okay," Jiang Yanmu helped Fu Yanjin back to her tent to sleep. Shen Kuo, who had been sitting nearby, made an excuse and also went back to his tent, saying, "I'm sleepy, I'm leaving."
"Hmm," Jiang Yanmu and Ye Ziyi were the last to sit outside stargazing. Before long, Jiang Yanmu also felt sleepy. Trying to stay awake, she casually pointed to the stars and asked, "What's that?"
"Um...I don't know."
"Um...I...don't know either." She couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed onto Ye Ziyi's shoulder. Ye Ziyi straightened up and asked tentatively in a low voice, "Is Jiang asleep? It seems so."
In her dream, Jiang Yanmu suddenly found herself standing in her middle school, looking around in surprise. She turned around and saw Ye Ziyi. Jiang Yanmu happily ran up to him and called his name, "Ye Ziyi!" Ye Ziyi heard Jiang Yanmu calling him and turned around as well.
Jiang Yanmu stopped abruptly. She saw a girl appear beside him and froze, completely stunned. Ye Ziyi began to introduce the girl, "Jiang, let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend..."
Jiang Yanmu repeated the word "girlfriend" carefully, enunciating each syllable. She asked fearfully, "Does that mean I have to delete her as a friend?"
"Yes, delete it," he said without hesitation. After saying that, Ye Ziyi turned and walked away with his girlfriend. Jiang Yanmu wanted to chase after him, but she couldn't move. "Why can't I move?"
Upon waking, Jiang Yanmu opened her eyes in fright. "What a terrifying dream!"
"You're awake, Jiang."
"Hmm..." Jiang Yanmu hadn't recovered from the nightmare and just kept walking towards the tent. "Let's go back to sleep," Ye Ziyi followed her.
"Hmm," she murmured unconsciously.
Goodnight, Jiang.
