Volume 1 Chapter 36: The Love of a Cold Ice House
"Stop, stop, I'll go, I'll go." A strong sense of guilt arose, and Ye Xin didn't dare say another "no".
Never seen such a strange girl, being scolded by Dan Lan's mother like that is nothing, having lost love but not crying bitterly in someone's arms, nor being melancholic and decadent like some people.
I just think that Sugi, who is eager to eat ice cream, is extremely cute and makes people like her involuntarily. No wonder many boys in school secretly pay attention to her when she's not aware of it.
"Great, there's an ice cream shop up ahead, let's race there and the loser pays."
"Wait for me, you're cheating! I'm not ready yet!" Ye Xin shouted from behind, hastily opening her stride and running.
"Come and chase me quickly! Ha - ha - " Let all memories of Lan Lu be forever buried at the bottom of the lake!
As soon as I stepped into the ice cream shop, I ordered six different flavors of ice cream in one breath. The store clerk stared at us intensely, thinking that these two girls must be crazy. But who cares? The customer is God, right? I pulled my companion, who had already been shocked by me, to sit down at a random table, threw off the backpack on my shoulder and started slowly enjoying the ice cream spoonful by spoonful.
"Aren't you cold? Aren't you cold?" Holding the spoon but hesitating to take action, Ye Xin kept asking me from beside without getting annoyed.
My God! How did I end up with such a clumsy guy? Then, my mischievous psychology emerged. I called out to the passing waitress and intentionally smiled sweetly at her: "Sister, can you get my friend a glass of ice water? She says she's very thirsty."
Upon hearing that, the waitress looked at Ye Xin sitting across from me with an incredulous expression but still smiled and replied: "Alright, please wait a moment."
"Smelly Xiao Xiao, how can you treat a friend like this? I'm really delivering myself to be bullied by you today." Ye Xin finally understood, and was so angry that she almost directly hit me on the head with her school bag.
"Hahaha......" Seeing her gritting her teeth and staring at me, I finally couldn't help but burst out laughing. It's been so many days since I've laughed with such joy.
As we walked out of the ice house, we strolled along the street corner. Ye Xin suddenly pulled my arm excitedly and shouted: "Look, look! The 'Paradise on Earth' that was just built last month is right across from that square, I heard the things there are super beautiful."
"Are you overexcited or something? Lately, on TV, they've been advertising this place nonstop, calling it the most luxurious and trendiest shopping paradise in the country... My mom brought me here on its opening day."
"My home is not in this district, I rarely come here to hang out! I really want to go and see what it's like." Ye Xin looked at me with a face full of expectation, her eyes revealing a moving longing.
"What's up?"
"Why don't we go in and take a look around, anyway it's already five thirty, so let's just make it six o'clock to head back, at worst I'll get scolded by mom when I get home." Although she said this with her mouth, Ye Xin had already been thinking of an excuse for being late in her heart.
I originally wanted to kindly remind my deskmate that if she continued strolling around here, it would be at least 7 o'clock by the time she took the bus back home. But seeing her enthusiastic face, I swallowed the words that were on the tip of my tongue. She can't blame me when the time comes.
