Jiang Nian quickly washed his face, changed into his favorite sneakers, jeans, white shirt and brown jacket, and then rode his bicycle to Yukimura Seiichi's house.
Jiang Nian knew that it was wrong for her not to take the initiative to look for Yukimura Seiichi during the entire holiday. She couldn't give Yukimura Seiichi the impression that she was a scumbag who would flirt and run away.
Yukimura Seiichi's home.
Yukimura's mother knew that Yukimura Seiichi went to the mall with Sanada Genichirō to buy shoes today, but she didn't expect him to return home so soon. Most importantly, he looked angry and didn't buy any shoes.
Yukimura's mother, Masako, knew that Yukimura Seiichi was always gentle and polite, and rarely showed his emotions like today. She couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Seiichi, what happened?"
Upon hearing this, Yukimura Seiichi quickly calmed down and said, "Mom, is everything okay?"
As he was about to enter his room, Yukimura Seiichi suddenly turned around and asked, "Mom, are there any apples at home today?"
Yukimura Masako said suspiciously: "No, I just made apple pie."
"Mom, my friend will be here soon," Yukimura Seiichi asked softly, "Can I get one for her?"
"Of course." Yukimura Masako blinked and asked, "Which friend of yours is he?"
Yukimura Seiichi thought of Jiang Nian's mischief, and his heart softened. He said softly, "Keep it secret for now."
After returning to the room, Yukimura Seiichi changed his clothes, cut and packed one of the apple pies, then sat on the sofa and stared at the clock on the wall, starting to count the time.
Jiang Nian regretted not exercising more often. Whenever he reached a critical moment, he would always run out of energy and fail.
When Jiang Nian arrived near Yukimura Seiichi's house, he was already exhausted. He could still wipe the sweat from his forehead with a tissue, but the sweat on his body could only be absorbed by his clothes, so the clothes were changed in vain.
Jiang Nian had reached his limit at this time. After dialing Yukimura Seiichi's number, he gasped and said, "Yukimura-kun, I'm in the garden near your house. There's a dark brown bench over here. I'm right here, and I can't move a step. Come and save me."
Without waiting for Yukimura Seiichi to speak, Jiang Nian quickly said, "I'd like to drink some warm water. A towel would be even better."
Yukimura Seiichi was speechless. After a few breaths, he said, "Okay."
After Jiang Nian hung up the phone, he immediately slumped down on the bench and sighed, "Now is the time to be alive. The meaning of life is indeed stillness."
Yukimura Seiichi prepared towels and hot water with some amusement. It was less than 9 kilometers, but Jiang Nian was so exhausted.
Seeing this, Yukimura Masako was a little curious and joked, "Seishi, are you taking these to spend the night outside?"
"No, Mom, you're too nosy." Yukimura Seiichi touched his head awkwardly, "Mom, my friend is here, I have to leave first."
Seeing Jiang Nian leaning comfortably against the backrest, looking up at the sky with a carefree look, Yukimura Seiichi felt like teasing him.
Jiang Nian quickly stepped aside after hearing the footsteps, patted the bench and said, "Xingcun-kun, come and sit down, you're finally here."
After Yukimura Seiichi sat down, he put the bag containing the items aside, took out a cup of water and handed it to Jiang Nian.
"This is warm water, a little hot." Yukimura Seiichi sighed, "You are the first young man I have seen drinking hot water."
Jiang Nian took the water and drank most of it in an instant. After realizing what was happening, he asked, "What?"
"Nothing." Yukimura Seiichi chuckled, took the cup and handed the towel to Jiang Nian.
Jiang Nian wiped his forehead and felt that the sweat on his body had dried up, so he returned the towel to Yukimura Seiichi.
Yukimura Seiichi took out an apple pie, opened it, and asked, "I just made this apple pie. Do you want some?"
When Jiang Nian saw this, his eyes lit up instantly and he nodded vigorously: "I want to eat, I want to eat."
When Yukimura Seiichi's hand holding the apple pie was three punches away from Jiang Nian, he quickly took a piece out of the box and put it into his mouth.
Yukimura Seiichi's face turned black instantly, and he quickly retracted his hand that was floating in the air.
After Jiang Nian swallowed it, he said, "It's delicious. I can take it myself. You can try it too."
Seeing Jiang Nian looking at him with wide eyes and anticipation, Yukimura Seiichi ate the apple pie in his hand.
Then he said with a forced smile, "It's delicious."
Seeing Jiang Nian eating happily, Yukimura Seiichi felt very satisfied as well.
Yukimura Seiichi looked at Jiang Nian's worry-free expression, which was completely different from those romantic idol dramas he had crammed before.
"Why doesn't it develop in a romantic direction at all?" Yukimura Seiichi couldn't help but doubt the authenticity of idol dramas.
After eating two pieces in a row, Jiang Nian felt a little embarrassed: "Xingcun-kun, I was tired after riding my bike here, so I ate a little more."
Yukimura Seiichi comforted him: "It's okay, you are weak and need to replenish your energy."
Jiang Nian gave a fake smile and nodded, but in his heart he was thinking, "What a straight man! He really can't talk."
At this time, Yukimura Seiichi was secretly delighted. He thought Jiang Nian would not like to hear such words. He finally won a game.
The style of the painting gradually deviated from what he had imagined, and Yukimura Seiichi had already put aside the idea of questioning Jiang Nian.
As Jiang Nian got along with Yukimura Seiichi, he gradually forgot the countless reasons he had prepared.
As the sky grew darker, Yukimura Seiichi suddenly remembered that he had not bought any sneakers yet.
"Oki, I have to go buy shoes now, so I can't accompany you." Yukimura Seiichi looked at the time, "It's half past five, you can still buy some."
Jiang Nian's mind was filled with many thoughts, "Don't you need me to accompany you?", "Yukimura Seiichi likes to go shopping alone?", "Or do you have a date?"
"Do you want to go by yourself?" Jiang Nian grabbed the corner of Yukimura Seiichi's clothes, "You really don't need me to accompany you?"
Yukimura Seiichi originally wanted to send Jiang Nian home first and then go to the mall by himself, but he didn't expect Jiang Nian to accompany him.
"You can accompany me." Yukimura Seiichi said happily and proudly, "I'll put the towel home and be back soon."
Jiang Nian looked at Yukimura Seiichi's back and felt a strange feeling. Suddenly, he remembered that he had not reported it, so he immediately sent a text message to his grandmother to explain the situation.
When we arrived at the mall, it was already six o'clock in the evening, which was dinner time.
When passing by a sushi restaurant, Yukimura Seiichi asked, "Do you want to eat first? Do you think sushi is okay?"
The mall was about 8:30 in the evening. Although the time seemed long, it actually went by very quickly.
"Let's buy some shoes first. School starts tomorrow." Jiang Nian suddenly said jokingly, "The champion must wear nice new shoes."
After they finished buying shoes, they passed by a custom school uniform stall when Yukimura Seiichi suddenly said, "I saw you here today."
Jiang Nian's brain was working rapidly, trying to understand the deeper meaning of Yukimura Seiichi's words.
After thinking fruitlessly, Jiang Nian tentatively explained, "I spent the entire holiday at home writing exams, and today I came to pick up my new school uniform."
Yukimura Seiichi looked calm and nodded.
