“This creamy mushroom sauce is delicious.”
The girl sitting opposite poured the perfectly cooked sauce onto the steak and took a bite with a happy expression on her face.
The chestnut side ponytail swayed like a puppy's tail.
At Xia Fenghe's insistence, they finally went to the Western restaurant from last time.
"Although we talk about making memories of the three of us together, aren't there just the two of us now?"
Zhu Yu was not very interested in the food in this restaurant and only ordered a tuna sandwich.
The wooden deck-like open-air platform and the gurgling river below have not changed. However, as the seasons change, the street trees planted along the river bank gradually lose their leaves and form a thin green carpet on the ground.
Just like the people dining together, they have also changed from long hair in midsummer to ponytails in early autumn.
Although it’s not the hairstyle that really changed.
"It doesn't matter. Next time Suicao and I come here alone without you."
"What's the point of that? What are you going to do if she still doesn't want to come?"
The girl waved her knife and fork and viciously cut the pieces of meat covered in sauce into pieces: "Then I'll tie her up."
"You are more willful than I thought."
"What are these words? What kind of person did Zhu Yu originally think of me?"
"Hmm...a good guy?"
The tuna meat was very tender, and the taste of the lettuce wrapped in mayonnaise was generally good. To some extent, the impression of the taste was similar to the impression Xia Fenghe had given him before.
She is gentle, kind and approachable, similar to An Baizhi, but she is more lively and not as calm and rational as the latter.
So in a nutshell, he is a talkative idiot?
Perhaps it wasn't until she returned to the family here that this girl showed a trace of her true character.
For example, he would insist on his own opinions and must share Lin Suicao and his experiences; for example, he would hide on the balcony and cry alone when he was sad in the middle of the night.
Xia Fenghe stopped what he was doing and stared at the checkered tablecloth.
"I'm not that kind of person."
"Eh? Is that a bad guy?"
I wish I had a good diode.
As expected, he was given a cute look by the girl.
"I told you, I remembered a lot of things related to Suicao when I stayed overnight last time."
Xia Fenghe began to give examples of why he was not a good person.
"Once when she was a child, she stole some of the fruit candy I had hidden, the kind that comes in jars with various animal shapes."
It turns out that guy’s taste started to be sweeter when he was younger?
I'm wrong to blame you. What a shame.
"I was very, very angry, so I bought a new can with my pocket money, and deliberately waited for her to show up and ate every pellet in front of her. Even though my mouth was filled with a sweet taste, I didn't give her any pellets. "
Xia Fenghe's story ended and he raised his head to observe Zhu Yu's reaction.
"Then what?"
What's going on? This revenge is so cute.
"No, Suicao looked at me longingly, but as a sister, I had no intention of letting her do it that time. Very willful, right?"
Zhu Yu's brain played out his childhood experiences with Lin Suicao like a slideshow.
fight.
He straddled her and choked her.
He held her down and tickled her, and didn't let go even if she cried.
"Why did you stop eating all of a sudden?"
"Don't worry about me, my conscience is blaming me."
If a sister who doesn't share candy with her sister is considered willful, then a brother like him can already be sent to the eighteenth level of hell.
Xia Fenghe obeyed and did not pursue further: "Maybe even now, if Suicao steals something from me, I will come back like this to take revenge."
"That's not too willful, right?"
"Well--"
She drawled dissatisfiedly and raised her knife and fork as if wielding a sword, "Okay, today's goal is to let Zhu Yu know how willful I am, completely subverting your previous impression."
"When did the target change to this? Besides, I don't want to know."
"Seeing a new side of others is the only way for friendship to progress!"
The corners of the girl's lips turned up, forming a sly smile like a cat's whiskers.
It was a smile that could occasionally be seen on Suicao's face, indicating that she was about to do something bad or had already done something bad.
Zhu Yu once again felt deeply that they were indeed sisters connected by blood.
Xia Fenghe, who said "I want you to see the real me", actually made the decision without permission and prepared to treat her.
"I have specially prepared funds for today!"
She shows the QR code on the phone screen.
"No, at least give me what you pay."
Otherwise, An Baizhi's misunderstood image of "letting girls treat guests to dinner all day long" will come true.
The girl who couldn't persist at this point then asked to set the next destination as the bookstore he and Suicao went to last time.
"Is this the book you were reading?"
Xia Fenghe enthusiastically raised the "Wallace Mermaid" that Zhu Yu pointed out to her, "I'll buy it."
"You should buy this one instead."
Zhu Yu patted the opponent's forehead with the exercise book "Jiang Hai Xiao Ti" in his hand.
The power of knowledge effectively struck her, and Xia Fenghe fell into a dazed state.
"No, don't show me this!"
She looked at him with pleading eyes on the verge of tears, but Zhu Yu, who was as hard-hearted as iron, would never be fooled by cuteness.
"Don't go out to play next time. Come study together on your day off."
When he said this, he was thinking of An Baizhi.
Maybe we can also invite her to form a three-person study group.
During the meal just now, he had already told Xia Fenghe about her, and the latter agreed that he should observe from the sidelines for the time being.
The investigation of the Miracle Seed is closely related to both of them.
It was not that Zhu Yu was particularly interested in another world, but as time went by, he always felt that there were still some doubts in retrospect.
For example, their memories of that time-travel trip are getting blurry. When they first met, they couldn't remember each other's name in the other world at all, and they couldn't remember all the details clearly. Their mentality was closer to that of people in the real world. .
Assume that this magical thing that fulfills wishes originally existed in this world. It did not come from another world and was not called by this name.
Could it be explained that they were involved in someone's wish, weaving such a false memory, and then being given the power to serve as evidence?
Although it's just conjecture so far.
“After the bookstore, there’s the aquarium!”
Xia Fenghe's urging interrupted his thinking.
"As for the aquarium, there are ones closer than that."
"no--"
This time, she finally found an opportunity to be willful, "Why don't you understand?"
The girl stared at Zhu Yu's face angrily.
"It doesn't matter if it's not the aquarium you've been to, because it's about sharing memories that I didn't participate in."
She lowered her gaze, "So it must be the same as the experience that day. An hour, a minute or a second doesn't count."
