summer sinking

In winter, when the days are short and the nights are long, the sky appears gray-black.

It's just under seven o'clock now.

The instant noodles in the plastic bag were Jiang Ye's casual dinner.

"Brother Liyu, would you like to have dinner together?"

Hearing this title, Jiang Ye raised his eyebrows slightly.

Call him Brother Liyu?
"Where did you learn it?"

"Meng Jingzhe and Yue Yun both call you that." Xu Sui thought there was nothing wrong with following them in calling you that. Her original intention was to get closer.

Brothers have a meal with brothers, so you can't refuse, right?
Xu Sui had a lot of pocket money, but Zheng Jingyan was afraid that she would be too embarrassed to ask for it if she ran out of it, so he gave her pocket money at the beginning and middle of each month, and gave her money to buy clothes in different seasons.

Even if she spends money quickly and spends all the money in half a month, she will still have some pocket money in the second half of the month.

Xu Sui doesn't have high materialistic desires and spends most of his time on snacks.

Basically, I have enough pocket money every month, and I save a lot over time.

It’s easy to treat people to a big meal.

Jiang Ye didn't refuse, he just asked her where she wanted to eat, and Xu Sui asked him to choose a place.

I took a taxi when I arrived.

There are no taxis outside the residential buildings in this old neighborhood.

Jiang Ye scanned a shared electric car.

Single.

Xu Sui had learned it, but he didn't have the guts to drive on a busy road.

She said truthfully: "I don't dare to drive."

Jiang Ye: "I'll take you."

Xu Sui: "This can't carry people."

"It's a short journey, just make do?"

"How will it be?"

Jiang Ye made a place for her and said, "Sit in front of me."

It stands to reason that with the same family background, Jiang Yan wears famous brands, is aloof, and spends money like water.

Jiang Ye is surprisingly down-to-earth.

He is low-key and has no airs.

Choose a place to eat, choose a hot and sour noodle shop.

It's just outside her community, and it doesn't take more than 5 minutes for her to get home after eating.

The hot and sour noodle shop is very small, with four dining tables and chairs inside. At the end of the dining table and chairs is the cashier, and the kitchen is behind the cashier.

A small shop with a view to the end.

There are no customers in the store.

Jiang Ye ordered two bowls of the signature hot and sour noodles and sat down at the seat closest to the cashier.

Xu Sui sat down opposite him.

She still remembered that he was very close to her when she was sitting on the electric car just now, just like when he taught her to drive an electric car before.

But on shared electric vehicles, only young couples would do that.

The boy was driving in front of the girl who couldn't drive, and the boy held the girl in his arms.

There was a cold wind in front of her, and the heat of his breath was on the back of her neck.

She shrank her neck, unable to hide no matter how hard she tried.

Xu Sui was a little thirsty, so he got up and poured two glasses of warm water, giving one to him.

The hot and sour noodles are ready and served.

The aroma is tangy.

Xu Sui doesn't like spicy food very well, so when ordering, Jiang Ye said that there should be less chili pepper.

Hot and sour rice noodles taste more sour, which is an acceptable level of spiciness.

None of them are talkative.

Eat a meal in silence, so that you can eat without talking.

After eating, Xu Sui wanted to check out.

But the landlady said they had already gotten married.

The glass door closes.

Xu Sui wrapped his coat tightly, "Didn't you agree that I would treat you to dinner?"

"Please come next time." Jiang Ye said.

She asked, "When is the next time?"

"When I want you to treat me to dinner."

"Would you never want me to invite you?"

"It's possible." He twitched the corners of his lips and smiled, then walked back, "There's no reason for a girl to treat you."

Xu Sui wondered why he went back to the hot and sour noodle shop.

Jiang Yehe answered her as if he heard her voice, "It's raining." He entered the store.

Big raindrops fell on her palms, which were spread out to catch the rain.

Delay?

Height problem?

It rained heavily, and the dry ground suddenly became wet.

The rain was coming fiercely, and the sound of dripping and tapping came from outside the glass door.

See if the posture will stop for a while.

They were trapped in the shop.

The landlady loves to laugh, is fat in middle age, and has a round face.

Looks very blessed.

She is making fried sauce.

The aroma can't be contained in the small shop, attracting customers.

After sending the guests away, the landlady brought out two small bowls of fried noodles, "I'm a regular customer. I'd like to give it to you to try and give me some advice."

"Old regular customer?" Xu Sui blurted out.

The lady boss mixed the fried noodles and looked at Jiang Ye with a smile, "Is she the girlfriend of the handsome guy? He often comes to take care of my business."

She was about to deny it.

Jiang Ye took disposable chopsticks and took over the noodles mixed by the landlady and thanked him.

Xu Sui said nothing.

Each noodle of fried noodles is covered with meat sauce. The noodles are chewy and the fried sauce is salty and fragrant.

She probably understood why Jiang Ye became a regular customer here.

The store is small and inconspicuous.

The taste is not inferior to that of famous large restaurants.

Xu Sui had no objection and gave it a thumbs up to praise how delicious it was.

The boss lady was very happy when she received the compliments, and chatted happily with them.

She said that her son and daughter were about the same age as them. They were in high school in her hometown. When she saw them, it was like seeing her own children. She looked happy and praised them as a handsome boy and a beautiful girl.

He also said that Xu Sui's clothes looked good, and he wanted her to help pick out some good-looking clothes for her daughter and she would buy them back...

The rain kept falling, and time flew by.

Before I knew it, it was already around ten o'clock in the evening.

Zheng Jingyan sent a message asking her where she had been and why she hadn't come home yet.

Xu Sui was so absorbed in the conversation that the next second he saw Zheng Jingyan called.

She picked up the phone and explained why she hadn't gone home yet.

The proprietress waited for her to hang up the phone, "Are parents worried? If my daughter comes home late, I will be extremely worried."

Xu Sui nodded.

"Oh, by the way, I have an umbrella in the store, wait a minute." Feng Feng Huohuo, the proprietress, found a plaid umbrella under the cashier counter, "Go back first, don't worry your parents."

She wanted to refuse.

"Thank you, auntie, I'll return it another day." Jiang Ye opened the store door, opened his umbrella, and waited for her at the door.

The landlady winked at her and joked: "Go quickly, don't keep your little boyfriend waiting."

The sound of rain on the umbrella overhead is louder than firecrackers.

In the heavy rain, he held an umbrella and leaned towards her. After a while, one of his shoulders got wet.

Xu Sui didn't pay attention and asked him, "The boss lady mistakenly thought we were a couple. Why did you acquiesce?"

"She won't believe it even if I explain it." Jiang Ye glanced sideways at his shoulder, "Stay closer to me."

She was stunned.

what?
He he he he he...

say what? !

Get closer to him?

Seeing that she didn't respond, Jiang Ye stretched out his arm and pulled her over, "I got caught in the rain."

Xu Sui's heart almost jumped out of his throat. When he heard what he said, he knew that he had misunderstood and swallowed.

She was held in his arms, and he held her like a fashion pendant.

Xu Sui said unconvinced: "Do you feel that I have grown a little taller?"

Jiang Ye laughed unkindly, "Yes."

This smile clearly shows disbelief.

"I have really grown taller!" Xu Sui said seriously, "I measure my height every day. I am now 1.5 meters tall and 1.6 meters in shoes."

1.6 meters too!
Xu Sui thought proudly.

It's rare to see a girl like her at the age of 16.

Jiang Ye pressed the top of her hair with a smile in his eyes, "She has grown up a bit."
