In the darkness, a car sped along.
Relaxing music was playing in the car, and the male driver would occasionally tell a joke to keep the atmosphere light.
Although the girl in the passenger seat didn't say a word, the upturned corners of her mouth said it all.
Her eyes sparkled like stars, and her beautiful face shone brightly in the moonlight.
Her cherry lips were bathed in the cool moonlight, and her curved eyebrows and eyes were very beautiful.
My body gradually relaxed from being tense at the beginning, and finally I leaned back comfortably in the chair.
There weren't many cars on the highway, and Yu Mobai sped up to 120 miles per hour, returning to the small county town that both of them were familiar with in just one hour.
It was dinnertime, and the streets were filled with the aroma of cooking.
They've been eating these unique snacks, especially the ones sold at street stalls, since they were kids.
"Want some?"
Yu Mobai parked his car in front of a stall and turned to ask.
Ji Mushu didn't speak, but her slightly moving lips gave a clear hint.
"Then let's get out of the car. It's not convenient to stay in the car."
Yu Mobai parked the car, smiled, and walked to the stall. "Boss, one serving, please!"
"Hey young man, aren't you going to order one?"
The boss was a very talkative middle-aged man. Perhaps it was the inherent friendliness of a small county town, but he smiled and said, "This is your girlfriend, right? What a pretty girl."
Yu Mobai smiled and neither admitted nor denied it.
"You're so lucky to have such a beautiful girlfriend."
The owner, head down preparing the snacks, didn't forget to ask, "Girl, do you like spicy food?"
"eat."
Ji Mushu nodded.
Okay.
The shopkeeper quickly put it into a packaging box, saying, "Be careful, it'll burn you."
"Thank you, boss."
Ji Mushu smiled when she heard the familiar dialect.
In Liaoning Province, the dialects of each city are quite different.
They all have their own unique flavor. For example, people from coastal cities speak with an oyster accent.
Hearing the familiar dialect of one's hometown can instantly evoke a sense of familiarity in those who have traveled far from home.
Yu Mobai silently observed Ji Mushu and found that the girl's heart was becoming more and more "melted" in familiar surroundings.
They weren't far from the family compound, so the two of them slowly walked along the street.
There was a primary school ahead, and it was the time when evening classes ended.
A large number of students poured out of the school, and some students who were picked up by their parents looked longingly at the food stalls at the entrance.
Those who were going home alone rushed to the smoky barbecue stalls and eagerly pulled out their red and green change, saying, "Uncle, I want this, three skewers."
"Uncle, I want beef tendon!"
"Uncle, I'd like a large squid!"
Yu Mobai suddenly shouted, "The Dean of Students is out!"
Immediately, all the students in front of the stall scattered.
"Ha ha ha ha."
Upon seeing this, Yu Mobai burst into laughter.
"Are you crazy? Why are you scaring them?"
Ji Mushu glared at him.
"Damn it, I'm jealous of them eating, because I didn't have that back in junior high."
Yu Mobai walked over with a grin, "Boss, ten lamb skewers, ten beef skewers, and a fried chicken cutlet."
These were mostly semi-finished products, which were quickly prepared by the owner's firing process.
Yu Mobai took the meat skewer and gave half to Ji Mushu. "Do you remember when we were in the first year of high school, there was a barbecue skewer shop next to the school? Every time after school, the two of us and Feng Linhao would go and buy some meat skewers and eat them on the way home."
"Um."
Ji Mushu looked at Yu Mobai through the thick white smoke and spoke for the first time, "Back then, you always secretly gave yourself a few extra skewers, and I and Haozi got less."
"ah?"
Yu Mobai was taken aback for a moment. "You knew? Then why didn't you tell me?"
"Anyway, I can't finish it all, so I'll just give it to you later."
Ji Mushu was eating the meat skewers in small bites when a gentle breeze blew by, playfully ruffling a strand of hair at her temple. Ji Mushu accidentally ate the hair, but she pretended not to know it.
Yu Mobai gently pulled out a strand of hair, leaving a glistening drool mark on his face.
Ji Mushu was stunned; the gesture looked so familiar.
Doctors often prefer to return amnesiac patients to familiar environments because this can trigger their memories through small, unexpected events.
Ji Mushu was just like that; Yu Mobai's small gesture in this familiar environment instantly awakened memories from several years ago.
At that time, the two of them had just started high school and walked together every day.
He was always kept after school because he didn't do well in his studies. Ji Mushu wasn't in a hurry to go home. She did her homework while waiting for Yu Mobai to finish his test paper.
After that, the two of them would pool their pocket money to buy some snacks to eat while walking.
However, every time, Yu Mobai would finish his food in big bites and then stare at her.
Familiar memories suddenly flooded back, as if striking the softest spot in Ji Mushu's heart.
She fluttered her long eyelashes, her eyes reflecting Yu Mobai's figure. This boy embodied her youth.
"What are you thinking about? Let's go."
Yu Mobai finished the meat skewers in a few bites.
He prefers to eat while walking, and although it might not look very presentable, the food always tastes especially delicious when eaten with the aroma in the air.
The two slowly left the bustling school gate and walked to the end of the increasingly familiar street.
At the end of the road was a small bridge. Yu Mobai suddenly stopped walking. "Do you still remember the poem I recited to you that day in our senior year of high school?"
