summer monsoon

Chapter 5 Matcha

Lin Fengliang woke up to the melodious birdsong, and the sky was already bright.I looked at the time and it was almost noon, and even the birds had to stay in bed in this place.

Opening the curtains, the eyes are full of green, and white cockatoos with light yellow crowns landed on the trees in groups, eating unknown fruits on the branches.

Lin Fengliang didn't arrange any itinerary except for the round-trip air ticket and the temporary accommodation that Xiao Ci booked.Putting last night's croissants in the oven to reheat, Lin Fengliang's mind was empty, looking at the softening cheese through the transparent oven door, not knowing where to go.

After eating his breakfast, he hung up his wallet, opened the door and walked out of the yard.

Ji Xinghui held up a platinum-haired little girl with both hands, standing under a tree in the corner of the yard picking lemons.Turning around and seeing him coming out, Ji Xinghui pinched the girl under his armpit, approached him and stood still: "Vivian, do you think he is handsome?"

Vivienne was lying in midair, raised her head with difficulty, her little face was flushed, and she replied in a childish voice: "Handsome." She stretched out two short arms to Lin Fengliang: "Hold"

Lin Fengliang took a step back subconsciously, "Who is this?"

Ji Xinghui hugged Vivienne, "You have the heart to refuse such a cute loli. My daughter, isn't she cute~"

Lin Fengliang silently looked at this little girl with white skin, platinum hair, and gray pupils. She was of mixed race, about 2 or 3 years old, with shallow eye sockets, a soft nose bridge, and thin lips, which are round and round unique to oriental people. Ji Xinghui was the same, the corners of his eyes drooped slightly like deer, and the aggrieved eyes were probably in a bad mood.When I picked the lemons just now, I laughed clearly. I don't know if it was because I was rejected when I asked for a loving hug from a handsome guy.

"I'm joking...you won't believe it..." Seeing Lin Fengliang's probing expression, Ji Xinghui was a little bit dumbfounded, this 23-year-old boy is not so much good at joking.It's better to say that it's a little unreasonable. From yesterday to now, except for the care when I was sick, it was obviously too indifferent at other times.

"It's a good thing you have a pretty face." Ji Xinghui thanked him jokingly, "Otherwise you might have no friends."

"Well, I don't have any friends." Lin Fengliang's voice was calm, without the slightest hint of anger on his face.

Ji Xinghui was a little embarrassed, and silently reminded himself repeatedly in his heart: Don't joke with him.Don't make fun of him.

"Where are you going today?" He changed the subject directly.

"do not know."

"Didn't you do your homework before you came here?" Looking at the other party's confusion, Ji Xinghui explained, "It's just travel plans or something."

"No."

It has been a long time since Ji Xinghui has encountered such a difficult human being. For some reason, although Lin Fengliang always looks like a peanut from Gaoling, he feels that he looks a little like a child, and he has a kind of protective personality. Hina's mind.

"Then is there any place you want to go in particular? Or something you want to eat, or what do you usually like?"

Lin Fengliang thought carefully.

No one had asked him these seemingly ordinary questions before, so he couldn't answer them for a while.

Ji Xing didn't seem to be in a hurry to return, so he changed the question

"Is there anything you don't like?"

"I don't think so." Lin Fengliang was actually a little guilty. The person in front of him was Antares. He had traveled to many places and seen thousands of gestures.Those exotic delicacies left in his photo albums will make people's index fingers move at a glance.He thought of his simple and regular meals, how boring he was, how different they were.

"Ji Xinghui, where do you think I should go and what should I eat?" He asked sincerely.

"Wait for me here." Ji Xing hugged Vivian back and turned back to the house, and rushed back by himself after a while.

Lin Fengliang felt that he must have lied about his age.Black mask, black T-shirt, beige overalls, high-top Air Force One, and a black pocket around his waist, he looks like a college student no matter what.

"Let's go." Ji Xing reached out to wrap his arms around his waist, and in the blink of an eye, that warm arm left Lin Fengliang.

"Ji Xinghui?" Lin Fengliang swayed a step but did not follow.

"You call by name and surname like this, it's too much like the class teacher roll call." Ji Xinghui waited patiently for him: "Just call me Brother Xing. I have nothing to do today, let's go play together."

"You don't need to accompany me, it's too troublesome." Lin Fengliang still stood there and stared at him.

Ji Xinghui grabbed his wrist and walked straight to the gate of the courtyard: "Hurry up, you won't be able to grab any good food anytime soon."

Lin Fengliang didn't struggle anymore, and let this hand lead him forward.He really didn't know where to go, and Mr. A was willing to take him, which couldn't be better.

He took him to Mai Li Beach and waited in a long line to buy croissants with limited flavors of the day.When the queue arrived, there was only the last white truffle cream sandwich left in the limited edition, and Ji Xinghui bought another matcha-flavored one.They walked to a high place, overlooking the white-capped coastline. The seawater swimming pool on the shore was made of white stones, and looked vertically like ice blocks floating on the sea.

Ji Xing found a clean surface and pulled Lin Fengliang to sit down, and handed the white truffle croissant to him.

"Look at this white cubic building. The open-air part outside is a seawater swimming pool, and the inside is a restaurant and bar. Like ice cubes, the name here is called ice cubes, and it has been recommended by travel magazines from various countries."

Lin Fengliang took a bite of the croissant, and the rich fungi aroma was mixed with a hint of sweetness.With the sea breeze, the sweetness becomes more and more attractive.He turned his head and glanced at Ji Xinghui, knowing that he had been looking at him eagerly.

"It's delicious." Lin Fengliang said proactively.

Ji Xing turned Xiaolu's eyes back, and smiled with his teeth showing, his eyes flickering.Lin Fengliang's heart warmed up when he laughed, and he also laughed unconsciously.

Ji Xinghui's expression suddenly froze, and it took him a while to look away with a dry cough.

"You... you have such a pretty smile, why are you always so expressionless."

Lin Fengliang looked at the matcha croissant in his hand, the matcha paste was faintly oozing from the tooth-shaped bite marks.

"I'm used to it. I need it for work. They don't let me make expressions, saying that too many expressions will damage the image"

"What image is destroyed?" Ji Xinghui was full of doubts.

"prince."

Lin Fengliang didn't know what was wrong with his answer, but Ji Xing's smile made him very worried that he would have an asthma attack in the next moment, so he subconsciously supported Ji Xinghui's body that was leaning back.

"Pfft hahahaha I'm fine, Your Highness." Ji Xing brushed his index finger over the corner of his eyes, as if he was crying from laughter.

Lin Fengliang sighed.He never bothered to explain.

This is the image the club team designed for him.They want him to be an elf in the ice and snow world, without any smoke and fire.He has always been asked to manage his expressions well. Happy means being polite, angry means frowning slightly, sad means moist eyes, and happy means slightly raised lips.Gradually, Lin Fengliang got used to not showing his emotions or anger, which is not difficult at all.His life was originally a boundless ice and snow wasteland, and he never expected that such a monotonous and boring place could bloom beautiful flowers.

Ji Xinghui ate the croissant slowly, and licked the matcha sauce on his hands.

Lin Fengliang looked at the green on his fingertips, like this strange summer, crowded and noisy, but he was as cold as ice, out of place.But he still couldn't help but want to hug the vitality of this season, even if he gets too close, the ice will melt.

Ji Xing looked back at him staring at his hand, paused and handed him the messy bitten croissant.

"Do you want to taste something different..."

Lin Fengliang took advantage of the situation and bit down.The crunchy croissant milk is full of fragrance, and the slightly bitter matcha fragrance is mixed in it to reconcile the sweetness.

"Your ones are better than mine."

Ji Xinghui pinched Croissant's fingers and clearly caught the breath on his lips, couldn't help but squeeze it hard, Croissant immediately deflated.

"You, um, do you usually eat light?" Ji Xinghui took out a tissue to wipe his hands covered with matcha sauce, and changed the subject calmly.Lin Fengliang took the shriveled matcha croissant from his hand, and handed him the half-eaten white truffle in his hand.

The two finished the exchanged croissants, like some kind of ritual.

In the evening, when the sun was setting, Lin Fengliang turned his head and looked directly at Ji Xinghui's face.There was a strange joy in his heart, and he clearly felt that this apparently ordinary afternoon had changed him.Like the tip of an iceberg melted, a different color was reflected in that tiny corner, as if it was green.

"I love the smell of matcha. I started liking it today."

Ji Xinghui couldn't grasp his own thoughts, Lin Fengliang's backlight was hidden, his expression was hidden in the shadow, his lips parted and said: I like it.

Ji Xinghui pinched his jaw hard.I just like the matcha flavor.

"Let's go, let's go down." He stood up and patted his rear buttocks, and extended his hand to Lin Fengliang.

, "Be careful with your legs."

On the beach in the summer evening, people formed a circle in twos and threes.A young couple is in the center, the husband holds the cello and the wife sits at the keyboard.The main melody of the cello is deep and full, and the accompaniment of the keyboard is clear and introverted, entangled with the sound of the violin.A song can'thelpfallinlove is mellow and moving, and the place where the lover's eyes meet is full of lingering love.

Lin Fengliang stood in the crowd, and the sound of music seemed to slow down the time around him.Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Ji Xinghui tugging on the key chain of Little Castle, opened his bag and took out his phone.

Ji Xing pressed the video button back, passed the shoulders of the crowd, and in the center of the screen was a couple playing, the sound of the music flowing through the quiet time, and the sea and sky in the background were oranges left by the setting sun.He accidentally turned the camera and aimed at the side face of the person beside him. His half-length hair covered a section of the neck. The person in the picture suddenly squinted at the camera. His eyes were the reflection of the setting sun, like a cluster of flames.He thought of Hal, Miyazaki's most charismatic warrior.

—When the environment is the darkest, the light of the flame burning is the most eye-catching.

As they strolled home, a barbecue grill was set up in the yard.The platinum-haired man fiddled with the sizzling beef on the iron plate.Looking up at them, the tall man waved his hand and shouted in strangely accented Chinese: "Hey, dinner is ready!"

During the day, the little Lolita rushed towards them from a distance, Lin Fengliang subconsciously backed away, and Ji Xinghui took the first step to block Vivian and hugged Vivian.

The small and slender woman brought a large bowl of salad from the house and put it on the table in the middle of the yard, smiling at them with her watery deer eyes.

"That's Neeson, Vivian's father, and this is my sister, Gu Rourou. Vivian's mother," Ji Xinghui introduced. "This house..."

"Ahhh! You, you, you, ah, ah!" Gu Rourou suddenly screamed and rushed in front of Lin Fengliang, covering her mouth with trembling hands, "Lin Fengliang!"

Ji Xinghui was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look at Lin Fengliang as if asking for proof: "Know him?"

Lin Fengliang shook his head, lowered his head and gave Gu Rourou a gentle smile, like facing the high-speed camera and the auditorium on the field.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah! alive!"
