"...I didn't come here with you just to eat ice cream." Xu Danhua looked at the ice cream in his hand, "Actually, I have something to tell you."
Yao Cheng grabbed the ice cream in his hand and couldn't help but squeeze it hard: "Let's finish eating first, at least it won't be wasted."
Whether it's the Xu family or the Yao family, they all have the habit of not wasting. Because the old man and his family had lived through hardship and hunger, and in fact, everyone before them had also lived through hardship, so they don't like to waste.
Xu Danhua nodded: "Okay."
She opened the ice cream and started eating it without taking any time, just wanting to finish it quickly.
Yao Cheng looked at her eating the ice cream with a doting look in his eyes: "Eat slowly, it's cold. Eat slowly, it won't hurt me."
Xu Danhua felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, so he turned around and said, "Let's go over there."
"Yeah." Yao Cheng quickly followed and opened a popsicle to eat. "Actually, I really miss my childhood. Back then, we always loved running to this store to buy food. Sometimes our families wouldn't give us any, so we'd just come here secretly."
The store in the compound carries too many memories for them. They spent almost their entire childhood and teenage years here.
Xu Danhua was silent. When talking about his childhood, he indeed had many memories.
She had actually been quite naughty before, mainly because she was spoiled by her older brother, which gave her a sense of security. And then there was Yao Cheng. He had been very kind to her. Whenever she got into a fight, he would always stand by her side. But he also often pissed her off. This man's inexplicable possessiveness, always preventing his classmates from getting close to her, had really irritated her.
But before, she didn't understand that this was called possessiveness, she just felt that she didn't like it.
"Remember that place? That kid from the Liu family always wanted to be the leader of the kids in the compound and kept fighting with us. In the end, you blew his head off and he started crying." Yao Cheng couldn't help laughing when talking about these things.
Xu Danhua used to be very strong. She didn’t think of herself as a girl. She ate when she was supposed to and fought when she was supposed to.
Since he was a child, he thought Xu Danhua was very cute, straightforward and special.
"Yeah, I was really naughty back then." Xu Danhua remembers this incident vividly. It was mainly about her breaking the head of the man surnamed Liu. Her family was furious and punished her severely. Of course, she wasn't the only one punished; her older brother and younger brothers were also punished. Even Yao Cheng was punished.
In short, they are in the same group and are punished together for everything they do.
Yao Cheng smiled: "You're so naughty. I like the way you are naughty."
Xu Danhua was silent. This was what she wanted to make clear: "Yao Cheng... Actually, there are some things I have already made clear."
"Let's walk a little longer. Do you want to eat more?" Yao Cheng said in a panic. "I also bought some other things."
"I'm not eating anymore." Xu Danhua pushed it away. "I came out tonight to make some things clear with you."
Yao Cheng didn't move, and pressed his fingers harder again: "But I don't want to talk about it anymore."
Xu Danhua looked at the man across from him, considering his situation. He was clearly tall, his sharp features making him look handsome and resolute. He didn't like his clothes buttoned up neatly, so he always left the button at the collar open. With that button open, he looked a bit saucy, and this saucy quality blended into his unique temperament.
But at this moment his eyes looked a little hurt, a little lonely, and a little scared, which made people feel uncomfortable.
