famine

It was still early when Cheng Lang went out, and the eucalyptus market in winter is always not very refreshing, and basically maintained a gloomy and cold feeling as if it was about to snow for several months. Under such an environment, the appearance rate of the sun became very high. Low, sometimes the smog is heavier, and the brightness of the sun is reduced by more than half. What hangs in the sky does not look like the sun, but looks like an old light bulb with a tungsten filament that is about to burn out.

The weather forecast last night said that the first cold wave of the year is coming, the temperature will drop sharply today, and there may be sleet in the second half of the night, which is expected to be another heavy pollution.

Because the room was too warm, Cheng Yan took out his mobile phone to check the Internet before going out. The temperature outside was exactly three degrees, which was two degrees lower than the forecast.So he took a brown scarf from the hanger and wrapped it around.

It's early, so there's no need to rush to the attached high school to pick up Jiang Xuan, you can open the ride-hailing software to pick someone up.

Cheng Lang fixed his seat as usual, and then prepared to check out the animal restaurant, but as soon as the backstage was turned on, his phone started to vibrate crazily.

He twitched the corner of his mouth speechlessly and took the order.

The passenger was a young man, about seventeen or eighteen years old. When he opened the door and came in, Cheng Hong took a look and found that the man's face was a little pale, and he looked a little sick, as if he could fall down when the wind blows. .Out of politeness, after confirming the right person to connect with, Cheng Langshui took a bottle of mineral water from behind and handed it to him, and asked warmly, "You don't look well, do you need to go to the hospital?"

The water had been in the car for a while, and the bottle became much warmer when the warm wind blew.

The young man gave him a quick look, said no, and didn't take his water.Cheng Hong guessed that he was afraid that the water would be poisonous.Because there have been several incidents in Hitchhiking recently, the driver abducted and sold ignorant girls, or raped and then killed, and the Internet news has pushed him several times.

Cheng Yan put the mineral water back in the back seat calmly, didn't pay much attention to it, but he didn't want to talk from the bottom of his heart.There was silence in the car along the way, so he followed the navigation and sent the person to the destination.

Send off the passengers, start from the destination, drive forward for more than 100 meters and make a turn, and you will arrive at the street of Fuzhong.

Cheng Lang glanced at the time on the dashboard and found that it was still early.

While driving, he thought in his heart whether he should find a coffee shop for a meeting, and then drive there after the appointed time, or if he waited at the gate of the attached middle school so early, at least he would have to sit for half an hour, no I don't know if I will be regarded as a crouching job.

Even though he hadn't come to a conclusion in his mind, when he reached the intersection, he turned directly in.

The street is not very lively on weekends, especially the entrance of the attached middle school, which is as clean as winter and summer vacation, and even the door and windows of the security guard's hut at the entrance are tightly closed.

Therefore, Cheng Hong was very surprised when he saw that familiar figure standing by the roadside.

He stepped on the brake five meters away from Jiang Xuan, and Cayenne stopped immediately without making a sound.For some reason, he turned off the ignition and sat in the car looking at the figure, as if waiting for him to find out.

Surprisingly, after two or three minutes, Jiang Xuan didn't notice the existence of his car.

What are you doing?I looked down at my phone for a long time, are you watching the news?Are you memorizing knowledge points?

No, according to the sensitivity of this cool guy, he should have noticed it the first time he stopped the car and turned his head to look at it. Not only that, but also a flash of vigilant eyes.

What are you looking at so focused on?

And...why does he like the square bricks next to the green belt so much?

Cheng Lang thought about it for a while, and was surprised to find that Jiang Xuan stood on the same block every time, and his stance was exactly the same. If he didn't know that he was a top student, he would think it was a habit of standing and punishing him. He was very casual. One hand in his pocket and the other holding his mobile phone, as if nothing around him could attract his attention.But only those who are familiar with him know that he can actually focus on all four, five, six, seven, eight, seven, eight, seven, eight, seven, four, five, six, seven, eight. Although he is looking at his mobile phone now, as long as there is any movement around him, he can jump up immediately.

But why didn't I find it today?

In order to verify whether this conclusion is true, Cheng Lang raised his hand and honked the horn.

The figure looked over as expected.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Cheng Hong seemed to see him trembling.

Probably scared.

Jiang Xuan put away the phone, then walked towards him with a wooden face, went around to the co-pilot, and got in the car.

The car door was closed gently, and Jiang Xuan lowered his head to fasten his seat belt, but he didn't say anything.

Cheng Lang frowned.

He controlled his tone and tried to be as gentle as possible: "Why are you so early, it's not time yet."

"Aren't you early too?" Jiang Xuan blurted out without thinking, as if he was waiting for his words.

Cheng Lang thought that maybe he didn't wait for this sentence, he was probably waiting for him to speak first, he is a very temperamental young man.

His heart suddenly softened, and his eyes softened.

"Are there any arrangements? Birthday."

Jiang Xuan was taken aback for a moment, then turned to look at him after two seconds, a little dazed: "What arrangement?"

Seeing his completely out-of-condition appearance, Cheng Lang didn't rush into the car, and simply leaned back, "Didn't you say last week that you asked me to spare today? That tone was like that of a domineering president. I Thought you had your own plans."

As a result, Jiang Xuan frowned, his eyes were a little blank, and his expression became more bewildered: "...Isn't it my birthday?"

"..."

Cheng Lang opened his mouth, but couldn't think of what to say to answer, and finally curled his lips into a smile: "Okay, then listen to me, if you think of something on the fly, you can add it... Have you had breakfast?"

It's almost nine o'clock now, at a time that is neither too early nor too late, just after breakfast, and lunch is coming soon.With an animal like Jiang Xuan eating several meals a day, Cheng Hong was not sure if he would get hungry in a while.

"I've eaten." Jiang Xuan nodded. He rubbed his stomach, suddenly a little embarrassed, "But I think I can still eat it."

Cheng Lang was happy, and felt a lot better. He knew that Jiang Xuan was not so stiff now, "Come on, I still have to save my stomach for self-help, so I'll be hungry for a while."

The latter nodded reluctantly, and then realized that the Cayenne had been started and was driving in a direction that was unfamiliar to him, and he had never been on this road now.

He was a little curious: "Where are we going?"

"West End."

"Where are you going?"

Cheng Lang looked back at him, and said very relaxedly, "I'll take you to ice skating."

When Jiang Xuan first heard these two words, he refused.

Because he can't skate.

Moreover, what Cheng Lang meant was to take him to the ice rink.There is a large park in the West District, and the main landscape in it is a large lake called "Silver Sea".If you guessed right, the destination of the two of them is there.

It is said that he slid across the frozen river with Cheng Lang when he was in the countryside. At that time, he did not show any abnormalities, and he followed Cheng Lang very calmly. Hearing the laughter of the children next door, he felt very at ease, so It shouldn't be too difficult to change the skating scene to an ice rink.

The reason why Jiang Xuan wanted to refuse was because of the shoes.

He can play skates in sneakers, but he dare not put on skates and gallop the entire ice rink.

but...

He took another look at the back of Cheng Hong's head who was queuing up to buy tickets at the ticket office, but he kept his words down.

When Cheng Hong brought two pairs of skates from the shoe window, he looked at the shiny silver blade under the skates, his face was numb.

"Quickly try to see if it fits, you can change it, but it won't work after you go in," Cheng Yan was lowering his head, and didn't see the discomfort and resistance flashing in Jiang Xuan's eyes. Seeing that Jiang Xuan didn't answer, he directly sent The shoes were placed at his feet, and he patted his calf, "Try it quickly."

"..." Jiang Xuan took off his shoes stiffly, looked at the ice blade that looked like a knife point, and then looked back at the ice rink behind him, struggling desperately: "There are two venues here, we Why don't you go to the one on the right? That one can ride a bicycle."

Cheng Lang was changing his shoes, when he heard this, he looked at him: "Do you want to go?"

Jiang Thrush: "Yeah."

"Then let's go skating first and then go cycling there. Anyway, both sides have to buy tickets, and they are all one-time."

Jiang Xuan had nothing to say, and began to lower his head to change his shoes.

The temperature around the ice rink is much lower than outside, especially Yinhai is still outdoors. The skates are just taken out of the shoe cabinet next to it. As soon as Jiang Xuan’s feet were stretched in, they were shrunk by the ice, holding on to the shoes. His hand trembled, and his elbow bumped into Cheng Hong's arm in a moderate manner.

The latter looked back at him and gave him a questioning look.

Jiang Xuan tried his best to keep his facial expression soft, but his worried eyes were hard to hide. He smiled unnaturally: "It's okay."

Cheng Lang looked at him for a while.

Suddenly his expression changed, and he asked very abruptly: "Are you not good at skating?"

"Yes." Jiang Xuan replied without thinking.

Cheng Yan had already changed his shoes, and stood up very neatly without any support. He looked at Jiang Xuan and frowned slightly, "If you don't know..."

He originally wanted to say forget it, let's go next door to ride the ice bike.

As a result, Jiang Xuan probably didn't want to let him talk, so he directly blocked his mouth: "Scholar is very, very good at it."

He tightened the shoelaces on his feet again, and the long shoelaces were all tied up by him.

Under Cheng Lang's concerned gaze, he stood up tremblingly, leaning on the bench under his buttocks for people to change shoes and rest.

After confirming his safety, he smiled at Cheng Lang: "Look."

"..."

Cheng Lang's brows relaxed a little, thinking that he was thinking too much, so he walked ahead with confidence and took the lead.

Yinhai is a large lake with a very vast area. Except for winter, it is basically dark green and flowing continuously throughout the year.Due to the high water level, there are many aquatic plants growing under the water. When it is not frozen, you can often see the algae plants floating with the current from both sides of the embankment.However, in winter, there will be thick ice here, and nearby businesses will circle it up and carry out related ice entertainment activities.

As Jiang Xuan said, the Yinhai is divided into two parts, with the fence network across it as the dividing line. The left side is dedicated to skating and must wear skates, and the right side is used for ice motorcycles, bicycles and other recreational equipment. The ice events that can only be entered.

Now that it was almost spring, Cheng Hong and the others arrived at the time when the ice rink was about to close, and there were not many people on the ice.

And compared to skating on the left, which requires a certain foundation to participate, there are much more people on the right.

Looking around, the ice rink in front of them is mostly young and middle-aged people, and the right side is mostly a family of three who come to coax their children.

Cheng Lang was standing on the non-slip carpeted steps, and a girl just slipped past him, bringing a gust of chilly wind.

He was just about to lift his feet to go down when someone grabbed the hem of his thick down jacket.

Although I didn't expect to come to the ice rink in advance, it was a coincidence that Cheng Lang didn't wear a thick down jacket today, and the hem of the clothes was also very short.

He turned his head and saw Jiang Xuan standing behind him with a very hesitant look on his face.

"how?"

Jiang Xuan pursed his lips.

At this moment, a man and a woman had slipped under the steps in front of them, and Jiang Xuan's face turned cold, feeling that the ice slag broken by the ice blade under their feet splashed on his face.

He raised his hand and grabbed a piece of scarf exposed on Cheng Hong's back.

It was very difficult to say and said embarrassedly: "Let me hold you."

The author has something to say:
