I downloaded the app and discovered that my childhood sweetheart's affection level had skyrocke

"Don't follow me." After saying that, Ye Zhiyu waved to Lin Zhou, put her hands back in her pockets, and sauntered into the crowd on the other side.

Lin Zhou stood there watching her back.

Forget it.

Playing alone is fine.

I'm suddenly a little thirsty... I still have a lot of time, what should I do?

It's not time to make omelet rice yet.

"Lemon tea, please." Lin Zhou took a sip of the now-flat soda, turned around and walked back the way he came. He said he just wanted lemon tea, but his pace unconsciously quickened a little.

……

Tang Yuru has been sitting here for almost two hours.

This hand-whipped lemon tea stall was prepared by Class F. At first, quite a few students from the class came, but there were just too many beverage vendors nearby, with milk tea, coffee, and fruit tea crowding the entire street. Their stall didn't sell many cups even after a whole morning.

Everyone was initially in high spirits, but later they all started playing on their phones and went out shopping.

Finally, someone suggested taking turns watching the stalls. Before Tang Yuru could react, the others had already gone off to browse the school anniversary celebrations in twos and threes, leaving behind only the words, "Yuru, you watch the stalls for us first, and we'll come back later to take over."

She didn't come back; she's been watching the stall the whole time—but Tang Yuru felt that everyone probably had their own things to do.

"Um……"

Actually, I didn't feel there was anything wrong with it. I hadn't made any plans to go out with anyone anyway, so staying to watch the stall was a way of helping out my class.

The table had been wiped very clean, and the straws had been rearranged according to color several times. Tang Yuru couldn't find anything else to do, so she could only put her hands on her knees and quietly watch the people passing by outside.

Occasionally, people would look this way.

Tang Yuru would subconsciously sit up straighter. "Um... handmade lemon tea..."

The sound was very soft, and the other person walked past.

"..." Tang Yuru cheered herself up in her heart for a while, and just then she saw a few girls walking this way, so she immediately put on what she thought was a fairly natural smile.

"Lemon tea..."

The other person was chatting and completely ignored her.

Tang Yuru's smile slowly froze, and in the end she could only pretend that she hadn't said anything and sat obediently again.

It still didn't work.

Tang Yuru sighed softly, and was just about to sit down again when she heard a voice coming from in front of the stall.

"Boss, a lemon tea, please."

"Okay!"

Tang Yuru stood up almost reflexively. Because she was moving so fast, her leg bumped into the chair. She gasped in pain, but didn't stop. She immediately grabbed a cup from the side.

Finally, the guests have arrived!

"Hello, normal sugar or less sugar?" Tang Yuru asked.

"Less sugar, please."

"Where's the ice?"

"That's good."

"Um."

Once she actually started working, she wasn't as nervous as before. She took out the washed lemons, cut them open, picked out the seeds, put them in a cup, and whisked them by hand. Then she added ice cubes and syrup according to the ratio, working very quickly.

Lin Zhou stood outside the stall and watched for a while.

Pretty skilled.

But thinking about it, it's normal. Tang Yuru used to love doing part-time jobs. She would go wherever there was a shortage of people, such as the cafeteria or library. She even worked at a convenience store off campus for a while.

Her personality hasn't changed.

She always seems ready to apologize when talking to people, but when it comes to actually doing the work, she's more efficient than anyone else.

Tang Yuru quickly covered the cup, then shook it vigorously with both hands. The ice cubes rattled inside, and her long bangs on one side swayed back and forth, eventually getting all over her face.

"..." Tang Yuru paused for a moment, then used her wrist to brush her hair aside and continued shaking.

Seeing the other person's simple and honest appearance, Lin Zhou couldn't help but chuckle.

"What's wrong?" Tang Yuru asked, puzzled.

"It's nothing," Lin Zhou said. "It's just that you seem quite professional."

"what……"

Tang Yuru was stunned for a moment, her ears quickly turning a little red. She felt embarrassed when praised, and her hands unconsciously quickened their movements. "N-no, I'm already quite skilled."

Before long, a cup of lemon tea was handed to Lin Zhou.

Tang Yuru looked a little nervous. "You can try it first. If it's too sour or too sweet, I can adjust it for you."

"No need." Lin Zhou inserted a straw and took a sip.

It tastes really good.

The sourness wasn't too strong, and the ice was just the right amount; it was much more pleasant than the soda he had just bought from the roadside.

"It tastes pretty good."

"real?"

"Um."

Tang Yuru's eyes brightened noticeably, and her previously cautious expression softened. "That's good then."

Looking at her like this, Lin Zhou suddenly felt a little nostalgic.

It's still so easy to understand.

A little praise makes them happy.

But he quickly glanced at the empty stall next to him. "Yu Rou, why are you here all alone?"

"My classmates went out to play, so I stayed behind to watch the stall..." Tang Yuru answered subconsciously, but suddenly stopped halfway through her sentence.

Ok?

She slowly raised her head.

Yu Rou?

Did the person in front of me just call me Yu Rou?

This time, Tang Yuru finally took a serious look at Lin Zhou. He had short, fluffy black hair with bangs falling naturally, and a pair of black-rimmed glasses on his nose. Most importantly...

So handsome...

Tang Yuru was actually hesitant to make eye contact with the other person when she spoke. When she saw a boy who was like the sun, she felt a strange sense of familiarity and immediately looked away.

"Um..." Tang Yuru hesitated for a moment, then asked softly, "Do we know each other?"

"..." Lin Zhou stopped sipping his lemon tea.

Upon seeing his reaction, Tang Yuru immediately realized she might have said something wrong. Her already soft voice became even more flustered, "I'm sorry, I just thought you might know me, but I don't think I do..."

The more she explained, the more wrong it seemed.

"No, what I mean is..."

"Stop, stop, stop." Lin Zhou raised his hand to interrupt.

Tang Yuru immediately shut up, but the expression of having done something wrong was already written on her face.

Lin Zhou was still in a state of shock that his ex-girlfriend had asked him, "Do we know each other?" But after pushing up his glasses, he suddenly realized what was going on.

Oh……

My bangs used to cover almost all my eyes, but I recently changed them for a play, and I'm also wearing glasses today.

like……

There's definitely a big difference; his roguish charm has been revealed.

Especially after Tang Yuru broke up with him, every time she saw him, she would run away from a distance. Recently, she even ran away before she could finish speaking.

"..."

No wonder I didn't recognize him.

wrong.

That's still going too far!

We talked for at least a month.

Although I don't think I did anything particularly outrageous during that month...

But he's also my ex-boyfriend, right?!

"Take another look," Lin Zhou said, pointing to his face.
