11 Cream Puffs
◎Meet alone◎
Campus, corridor.
The crowd gradually dispersed, and the young man in white walked towards the display wall in front.
Overall ranking, individual subject ranking, scores...
Ganmei - her name, as expected, is firmly in the top ten!
And he...
The boy unconsciously clenched his fists - there was still a huge gap between them!
Can he really do it in less than a year?
There were some voices and footsteps behind him. People came over to check their scores. After sorting out his thoughts, the boy calmly turned around and walked away.
The weather is getting cooler, and the wind is blowing the leaves.
Looking up at the cloudy sky, the young man in white thought: Some things should be planned early.
During lunch break.
In the corner of the campus, on the green grass, under the big tree.
"Gao Shuai, how is it? Is it delicious?"
The girl with ponytail looked expectantly into the dark eyes of the boy in white, waiting for his answer a little nervously.
"This..." Picking up another piece of dessert, the boy asked instead of answering, "Cream puffs, did you make them?"
"Yeah." The girl nodded. "I don't know if it suits your taste."
The boy smiled and said, "It's delicious. I like it very much."
"Really?" the girl asked in surprise.
"Really." The boy ate another piece.
Seeing him eating with gusto, the girl smiled sweetly, looking cute, bright and charming.
The pink lunch box was gradually empty, and the last two round and playful cream puffs, standing next to each other, looked like a pair of lovers, which was very pleasing.
The boy watched for a moment, then invited, "Let's eat the last two pieces together!"
"Okay." The girl nodded happily, took the lunch box and started eating slowly.
The wind at noon is so vague and intriguing.
After they finished eating and cleaned up, Gao Shuai looked at the girl he liked and said sincerely, "Gan Mei, thank you for the lunch box. I ate a lot for lunch today."
The girl pinched the corner of her clothes lightly and smiled lightly: "You're welcome, I'm glad you like it."
"Tomorrow is Saturday, are you...free?"
"Tomorrow?" The girl was surprised for a moment, then nodded. "I'm free. What's the matter?"
"The park was beautiful last time. If it's convenient, how about we go for a stroll together tomorrow morning at nine?"
"You..." The girl opened her eyes wide, in disbelief and said shyly, "Are you asking me out?"
After asking, her face turned red, she lowered her eyes slightly, twisted her index fingers, and waited anxiously for his response.
Gao Shuai, he... should be in a good mood!
Could it be that he is very satisfied with the results of this monthly exam?
Hearing this, the young man looked at her intently and replied frankly, "Yes. I don't know... whether you're willing or not."
"I..." The girl came back to her senses, nodded slightly, and whispered, "I do."
Very much willing.
"That's good." The young man coughed softly. When he heard the girl's answer, his ears turned slightly red. He took a deep breath, smiled gently at the girl who raised her head, and said naturally, "See you tomorrow."
"Yeah, see you tomorrow."
The girl smiled brightly, her eyes sparkling, and the twinkle in her eyes had a taste of happiness, just like the cream puffs they had just eaten, sweet and beautiful!
The wind blows in a corner of the campus.
The young boy and girl are like a beautiful and harmonious painting. When the wind blows, they are frozen in the frame, which should be the most beautiful commemoration of the innocence of youth.
The next day, the park.
“Another goal!”
"Yeah!"
"Brother is awesome!"
"I want one too, I want one too!"
"Teach me, teach me!"
…
Looking at the scenes in front of her, feeling the warmth of the sun shining overhead, Gan Mei pinched the shoulder straps of her backpack, closed her eyes again and took a deep breath. When she opened her eyes, a handsome young man bathed in the sun was walking straight towards her - all this - was definitely not a dream!
"Ganmei, what are you thinking about?"
A thin layer of sweat broke out on the boy's forehead, and his black T-shirt was stained with several sweat marks of varying sizes. He looked full of energy after exercise, dazzling and charming, which made her heart beat fast.
Gao Shuai—really handsome!
"I..." Feeling that the other person was too close, Gan Mei's cheeks flushed. She pursed her lips, swallowed her saliva, and said unnaturally, "No, I didn't think anything."
"Sorry to have kept you waiting."
The boy didn't ask any more questions. He wiped his sweat off his face, waved to the children on the court, turned around and took the backpack from the girl, smiled and said, "There are too many people here. Let's go sit somewhere else for a while!"
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Arriving at the place where the two had sat last time, Gan Meixi said, "There's no one here, Gao Shuai. It's a good opportunity for us to sit for a while longer, and you can have a good rest."
Without anyone to disturb her, she had more time to spend with him.
"Yeah." Gao Shuai nodded, put away the things in his hands one by one, took out a T-shirt from his backpack, and said to the girl, "Gan Mei, please sit down first. I'll go to the bathroom to change clothes and will be back soon."
Somewhat surprised at Gao Shuai's foresight and preparedness, the girl nodded, smiled at him, and watched his back disappear around the corner ahead.
The wind blows gently and the sun shines warmly. The weather in the park is really comfortable.
Delicious desserts and colorful drinks were laid out on the stone table, but the most eye-catching thing was an old round basketball.
"Gao Shuai..." the girl muttered to herself, "He seems very different today."
Stretch out your palm and gently place it on the basketball. Gan Mei shakes her head and sighs, "My hands really can't compare to a basketball! Even kids can play it well, but with my hands... I guess it's hard to play well!"
She took her hand back to support her chin, and thinking of what Gao Shuai had said earlier, her cheeks turned redder.
This morning, as soon as the two met, Gao Shuai took the heavy object from her hand and walked with her shoulder to shoulder for most of the park.
When they reached the basketball court, he suddenly took out a basketball from his backpack and said to her, "Ganmei, do you want to watch me play?"
"Playing ball?" She was extremely surprised. Looking at the group of children who were having so much fun, she asked uncertainly, "...Now?"
"Well, now."
Gao Shuai looked confident, so Gan Mei naturally didn't ask any more questions. She just nodded and watched him walk towards the children who had already occupied the basketball court in the park.
I don’t know what Gao Shuai said to the group of children, I only heard cheers from the crowd. Soon, the two sides divided into camps and started a simple sparring match.
She didn't understand basketball, but she could see that the kids on Gao Shuai's "opponent team" were obviously taller than the kids on their team.
They should all be residents nearby, or they may be classmates in the same primary school.
The short one should be a student in the lower grade, while the tall one should be a student in the higher grade.
Gao Shuai is fair and knows to help younger friends, but... Gan Mei smiled. In fact, with such a tall brother like him around, it is hard to say how fair the game can be!
She didn't pay much attention to the other kids, her eyes were fixed on Gao Shuai, and she couldn't think of anything else.
Ten minutes later, Gao Shuai came to her, drank some water, wiped the sweat off his face, and discussed with her that he wanted to play with the group of kids for a while longer.
She naturally agreed.
Watching him running and sweating on the court, she felt satisfied and happy in her heart.
The children seemed to be in high spirits. Sometimes they teamed up with Gao Shuai, and sometimes they ran to the opposing team. With the addition of a few children who came to the park later, 40 minutes passed in a blink of an eye.
Time flies so fast.
Gao Shuai...why did he suddenly think of playing basketball with the kids?
"Ganmei, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something first?" The young man walked to the stone table, put down his clothes, sat down, drank a sip of water, and asked the girl.
She looked up and saw that he was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, which was different from the calm and restrained school uniform. He looked more refreshing and casual at this moment, and he looked full of vigor and energy after exercising.
"Okay!" The girl nodded lightly and said with a smile, "It's time to eat, let's eat together!"
After exchanging a tacit glance, the two took out various desserts from their lunch boxes and arranged them one by one, and began to enjoy today's outdoor lunch.
On the stone table, there are delicious seaweed rice balls, soft milk toast, delicious banana cakes, and the girl's own hand-baked lemon-grilled chicken wings, which are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside and full of fragrance.
The young man took one look at her, then asked, understandingly, "Did you make these grilled chicken wings?"
"Well, I've tried to learn a little bit recently. Come and try it and see how it tastes." The girl said expectantly.
"It smells good, it must taste great!" The boy praised as he slowly started to eat. After one bite, he found it to be tender, juicy and delicious.
Seeing that he was eating with relish and not forgetting to nod at her, Gan Mei felt that everything was worth it - she was truly happy.
Park, we came to the right place!
The breeze was gentle, the sun was warm, and lunch ended happily in a wonderful and harmonious atmosphere.
As usual, she prepared some extra desserts, hoping that he would bring them back for his two cousins to try.
"Thank you for your kindness. My cousins will definitely like it!"
After putting the snacks that the girl had packed into her backpack, Gao Shuai smiled and thanked her again.
Gan Mei shook her head. Ren Feng gently stroked her face, her pretty face blushing slightly. She replied softly, "As long as they like it. If there's a chance in the future..." She paused and said slowly, "I hope I can still make something delicious for you... and my two cousins."
"Opportunity..." the young man muttered to himself with his head down, "Maybe there will be one!" His voice was like a gentle breeze, making it hard to hear clearly.
"Gao Shuai." Gan Mei called him, "Did you just say anything?"
The girl opened her eyes wide, as if she couldn't hear clearly.
"Sweet." The young man looked up at her, his eyes as deep as the ocean, but his tone as calm as the sky. He said seriously, "Let's not meet alone again!"
The sunlight above her head suddenly dimmed a little. The girl looked up unconsciously. In the distant sky, a few dark clouds appeared without her knowing when. It was so dark and overwhelming that it made her sigh.
The thin clouds, like wisps of smoke, were clearly visible, and for a moment they were even brighter than the sunlight.
A cool breeze blows by, and what feels cold is not the skin, but the confused and uneasy heart.
Will it rain today?
