Chapter 107 Why did you choose this place for our first date?
Xu Jialan: "..."
Feelings?
Help, how does this feel?
Not knowing what she was thinking of, she looked away in panic.
"I... let's go out."
As he said that, he walked towards the door.
Shen Xichuan chuckled, stopped teasing her, and followed her.
He took the car keys.
…
Come to the garage.
Shen Xichuan sat in the driver's seat, fastened his seat belt, and asked her with a sidelong glance, "Can you tell me now, where are we going?"
He pointed his chin at the navigation system in the car.
Xu Jialan pursed his lips, reached out, tapped on the screen, and entered an address.
After seeing the address, a hint of surprise flashed across Shen Xichuan’s eyes, “No. 1 Middle School? Want to go back to school?”
Xu Jialan shook his head, "No."
"Just drive, and you'll know when you get there."
Shen Xichuan raised his eyebrows, “Okay.”
He started the car and followed the navigation to leave Xinghu Bay.
Xu Jialan sat aside, tilting his head to look at the scenery receding outside the car window.
She opened the car window a little, the breeze ruffled her hair, and a gentle smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Shen Xichuan tilted his eyes, glanced at her quickly, and also curled his lips.
Maybe because it was the weekend, there were not many people around Nancheng No. 1 Middle School at this time.
Shen Xichuan found a place to park the car.
The two got out of the car and walked towards the snack street not far from No. 1 Middle School.
Shen Xichuan glanced at this place that was so familiar that it couldn't be more familiar, and looked at her, "The place you said you wanted to date is the snack street in No. 1 Middle School?"
Xu Jialan's lips curled slightly, and he hummed, "Yes, I haven't been here for a long time."
She looked at the place and it looked just as familiar as she remembered. There were some changes, but not big.
It's as if those past events happened just yesterday.
Shen Xichuan walked beside her, his eyes deeply fixed on her.
Last night, what Shen Yankai said came to mind again.
His eyes flashed, and he asked in a low voice, "Why did you choose this place for our first date?"
Is it because you like him?
Somehow, he hoped that this guess was true.
But I also feel sad and distressed if I answer in the affirmative.
Xu Jialan was slightly startled, then said, "There's no reason. I just happened to think of this place and wanted to come back and take a look. Don't you want to?"
She lied again.
Once again, he was deceived.
Xu Jialan, ah Xu Jialan, why are you so cowardly?
Why didn't she dare tell him directly? She just hoped that the memory of their love would start from here.
Because she has liked him for many years.
It also started from here.
It was a secret love that belonged to her during the chaotic youth.
Shen Xichuan saw through the panic and unnaturalness in her heart at that moment, and looked at her deeply, as if to confirm something.
After a while, he curled his lips, his voice slightly hoarse, "Yes, I want to see what you looked like at that time."
Xu Jialan was stunned for a moment, "Look at me?"
Shen Xichuan hummed, “Yes, look at you.”
See if she is always in the corner where he doesn't notice, always keeping an eye on him.
Before Xu Jialan could ask anything, Shen Xichuan took her hand and asked gently, "Let's go, where do we start?"
The autumn sun shines gently on the man's body, and his short black hair is rendered with a faint halo. His eyebrows and eyes are so familiar that they couldn't be more familiar, with a light and gentle smile, which always makes people's hearts tremble.
The palm that was held slowly felt his scorching warmth.
Xu Jialan's eyelashes trembled, and he raised his hand and pointed ahead, his voice trembling slightly, "Over there."
"good."
Shen Xichuan held her tightly and walked towards the place she pointed.
The two walked side by side through the snack street.
"Would you like some milk tea?"
Shen Xichuan saw a milk tea shop not far away.
He vaguely remembered that girls seemed to like drinking milk tea in high school.
But he searched through his memory and couldn't find out whether Xu Jialan liked milk tea or not.
Hearing this, Xu Jialan's eyes lit up obviously and he nodded, "I want to."
The man curled his lips slightly and squeezed her hand.
It seems that he likes it.
"Okay, I'll buy it for you."
He rarely drinks this kind of thing and has no experience buying it for the first time.
Looking at the various types of milk tea on the menu, he fell into a brief silence.
Xu Jialan glanced at his slightly furrowed brows, pursed his lips and smiled slightly, raised his hand and pointed to a certain place.
"I'll drink this. Pearl milk tea with more sugar and less ice."
Shen Xichuan's brows relaxed, and he curled his lips, "Okay, then... two cups of pearl milk tea with more sugar and less ice."
The clerk nodded and was about to place the order.
Xu Jialan suddenly said, "Wait."
Shen Xichuan looked at her sideways.
Xu Jialan said to the clerk, "One cup of pearl milk tea with more sugar and less ice, and the other with less sugar and less ice."
"OK."
Shen Xichuan glanced at her, said nothing, took out his mobile phone, scanned the code and paid.
Looking at his actions, Xu Jialan couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
The two found a seat in the milk tea shop.
After a while, the waiter brought two cups of milk tea.
"Please enjoy your meal, both of you."
Shen Xichuan casually placed his phone on the table, took one of the cups of sugary milk tea, inserted a straw, and handed it to Xu Jialan.
Xu Jialan took it and said, "Thank you."
She bit the straw and took a sip of milk tea. It still tasted familiar.
Slowly chewing the pearls inside.
Shen Xichuan also drank a sip of milk tea, which was neither sweet nor greasy, a taste he would not hate.
His eyes deepened a little, and after a pause, he set his gaze on Xu Jialan opposite him.
After a while, he suddenly asked, "Why did you order less sugar for me?"
Xu Jialan just took a sip of milk tea and almost choked.
Shen Xichuan raised his eyes slightly and looked at her steadily.
Xu Jialan finished chewing the pearls in his mouth, swallowed them, and then said, "Because... don't boys generally not like to eat things that are too sweet?"
Shen Xichuan raised his eyebrows and asked, “Mrs. Shen, how do you know that boys generally don’t like to eat things that are too sweet?”
Xu Jialan: "..."
No, she doesn't know.
The man looked at her hopeless expression and chuckled, "Or do you know that I don't like things that are too sweet?"
Xu Jialan didn't want to talk: "..."
Shen Xichuan seemed to have gotten the answer he wanted, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a nice arc.
He picked up the milk tea and took a sip slowly. "Mm, it's indeed my favorite flavor."
Xu Jialan wanted to cry but had no tears. He said with a guilty conscience, "As long as you like it."
Shen Xichuan’s eyes were deep and his smile was clear.
He looked outside and saw that the entrance of No. 1 Middle School was visible from the door of the milk tea shop.
"Did you often come here to drink milk tea?"
Xu Jialan didn't think much about it, so he nodded, tilted his head slightly, and looked towards the door.
“I used to come here after school when I had time.”
Over the years, the owner of the milk tea shop has changed several times.
However, this store has been preserved.
At that time, she was also sitting in this position, looking at the door.
Just to see him from afar when he left school.
No need to hide or worry about anyone seeing you.
