After Wen Yixing patiently explained things to him again and again, Shen Jingshao finally believed her and felt relieved.
High schools are not open at this time.
So they went to a noodle shop behind the school for a meal.
This noodle shop has been operating here for many years.
Wen Yixing and Shen Jingshao went to school at this shop, but the owner quit and his son took over and continued to run it.
After many years, this bowl of noodles still tastes the same.
Wen Yixing and Shen Jingshao sat at the entrance, diagonally opposite the shop, where there was a very thick sycamore tree.
Wen Yixing looked at it and said softly, "When we were in high school, the sycamore trees on the street weren't this thick."
Shen Jingshao: "More than ten years have passed."
At lunchtime, several day students in school uniforms began to emerge from the school gate.
There are also students who come to the noodle shop to buy food.
When they saw Wen Yixing and Shen Jingshao sitting there eating noodles, they couldn't help but take a few more glances.
The once quiet road became noisy and chattering.
Wen Yixing also saw a boy and girl in school uniforms laughing and playing in front of her.
Youthful and vibrant.
After finishing their noodles, Shen Jingshao went to pay the bill and returned with a bottle of the local specialty, iced soy milk, for Wen Yixing.
Wen Yixing took it and heard him say, "I remember you used to really like this iced soy milk."
Every summer, iced soy milk is Wen Yixing's favorite drink.
She comes here every Monday and Friday afternoon to buy a bottle of iced soy milk.
Shen Jingshao knew her pattern.
So every Monday and Friday afternoon, I would come to wait for her.
She is always the most eye-catching person in the crowd.
No matter how far away she was, or how many people were nearby, he could always spot her at a glance.
The iced soy milk tasted milder than before, but it was still delicious.
Wen Yixing took a few sips and held the straw to Shen Jingshao's lips: "Try it."
Shen Jingshao lowered his head and took a sip: "Delicious."
Wen Yixing smiled and said, "I think so too."
Parents are allowed to bring lunch to the school at noon, so Wen Yixing and Shen Jingshao took advantage of this time to enter the school.
As the two strolled around, they ended up on the playground.
Wen Yixing recalled that when she was in high school, she noticed that the place where Shen Jingshao was most often was on the playground.
He has great athletic talent; he excels at both basketball and running.
At noon, there were still physical education students training on the playground.
Wen Yixing sat in the shade, looking up at Shen Jingshao. She blinked and suddenly asked, "When did you start liking me in high school?"
Shen Jingshao looked at the podium not far away and slowly said, "When you stand on the podium to speak..."
Wen Yixing thought for a moment: "I've spoken too many times. Which time was it?"
Shen Jingshao smiled, looking down into her eyes: "The first time."
At first glance, it was just stunning.
Later, he would unconsciously start paying attention to her.
Later, he realized that he had unknowingly fallen for her.
Those were the years when he first learned what it felt like to like someone.
For the first time, she also hoped for her own marriage.
He would think, "If only the person I like liked me back."
Wen Yixing stared at him for a while, then suddenly stood up and grabbed his hand: "Come with me."
Wen Yixing came to the podium.
Shen Jingshao did not come up; he watched from below.
It had been a long time since I'd been here. Standing here again, Wen Yixing was reminded of herself in her school uniform, preparing a speech.
What was she thinking when she stood here back then?
Wen Yixing couldn't remember anymore.
But when she looked down, her gaze could only fall on one person.
Their eyes met, and Wen Yixing smiled at Shen Jingshao.
A bold idea popped into Wen Yixing's head. She leaned slightly to the side and said to Shen Jingshao below, "Ah Shao, catch me."
Under the blazing sun.
Shen Jingshao caught her steadily as she fell from the podium.
Before he could speak, Wen Yixing smiled, put her arms around his neck, and gently kissed him on the cheek.
She said to him with a smile.
"Ah Shao."
"I like you the most."
Shen Jingshao was slightly taken aback.
...
That summer, cicadas chirped and birds sang.
My childhood dream.
It's finally happened.
