Love is like the hole in a donut

It's like punishing yourself.

[Damn it, you obviously slept too. ]

Cang Lin also sat on the ground leaning against the sofa, and fell asleep next to Lin Sheng.Lin Sheng saw that Cang Lin was very tired, so he didn't wake him up, and kept looking at Cang Lin's sleeping face silently. For Lin Sheng, it can be said that it was a very happy time.

Fortunately, I thought that the two had completely become a sweet couple.

[Uehara-san, do you have any questions? ]

[Of course there are problems.If you don't tell me when you take your vacation, I won't be able to match your time.Besides, store manager, you rarely take vacations. ]

[I can’t help it, the time I can take a rest has not been determined yet.Every time I have to wait for everyone's shift schedule to come out, I can think about the days I can take my time off.I also……]

Lin Sheng raised his face and looked to his side, and happened to meet Shang Cang Lin's eyes.Lin Sheng noticed that the man's ears protruding from the hat were slightly red, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

[The store manager, you mean, actually, you also want to cooperate with my vacation time? ]

[Ah, I thought of it!I entered your name in the phone as "Forest Bear". ]

Cang Lin suddenly interrupted the conversation.

[……What? ]

Lin Sheng couldn't figure out what Cang Lin was talking about, and his mind was full of doubts.

[I have deleted Sonoda's information. ]

[Huh?Really, really? ]

The unexpected speech made Cang Lin skillfully change the topic.But for Lin Sheng, this is great news.

No matter how many times Cang Lin said that he no longer misses his old lover, there are still some things that he can't accept readily.If Cang Lin could already forget about that man by getting rid of his thorny feeling of jealousy, then Lin Sheng really felt that this was a good change.

[But wait a minute...then why did you type my name as "Forest Bear"? ]

[This looks more interesting! ]

[interesting……]

Doesn't Canglin hate that donut?

Lin Sheng couldn't let it go.Just as I was about to ask, the customer called "Excuse me" from the counter.

[Ah, why is no one at the counter?Where did Ms. Tianmaru go? ]

[Probably go to the bathroom. ]

Cang Lin rushed to the counter in a hurry, and Lin Sheng followed closely behind.Up to the counter where no one was guarding just now, there were already several groups of customers waiting to check out.Although there are fewer customers at this time, there are still many customers who come to take out donuts on Saturday afternoon.

[Store manager, I'm here to help too. ]

[You can't receive guests properly...]

[welcome! ]

Although Linsheng's smile was a bit unnatural, at least his voice was loud.

Lively and lively voice.In order to make up for his lack of knowledge of how to use a cash register, Linsheng deliberately went against his instincts to be courteous to customers. If a customer bought less than four donuts, they would put them in a paper bag, and if they bought more than four, they would arrange them in a paper box.

Fluffy donuts, chocolate donuts.Donuts that look like cakes, it is really a little happy to see customers buy donuts that they decorate and make.

[Why do you have a way to treat customers well now? ]

After the number of guests finally decreased, Cang Lin said with some dissatisfaction for some reason.

[I just learned from others.Probably all thanks to the store manager, you complained all day long...]

At this time, a customer who was about to leave with a bag of donuts turned around when he heard Lin Sheng's voice.

[Oh, is it Linsheng? ]

The middle-aged woman who had finished paying by Canglin seemed to have just realized Linsheng's existence. She leaned over and stared at Linsheng across the counter.

[I'm Chunshan... I don't know if you know that?Your mother and I are old friends.Your mother once said that you work here, so I want to say that it is you...]

Lin Sheng was a little surprised. After listening to the explanation, he also understood that the other party seemed to be someone his mother knew.

Feeling a little awkward.

[Ah... hello. ]

[Oh, you have really grown up!Chiyako showed me your photo.No wonder she's so proud of you... you're really handsome. ]

[Uh……]

Although Lin Sheng didn't intend to deliberately put on a serious face again, but he really didn't know how to respond to this difficult sentence, and the other party immediately said in a timely manner:

[Ouch, I really shouldn't have interrupted your work.My grandson loves donuts, I will come back next time! ]

[Ah, yes, thank you for your patronage! ]

Rinsheng suddenly lowered his head with the hat on, and the woman immediately smiled.

She was about to step out the door, but stopped again.

[By the way, I don’t know if I can bother you to say sorry to your mother for me? ]

[what? ]

[When I went to the house to disturb, my grandson accidentally broke the cup while playing... Although Chiyako smiled and said it was okay, but I always cared about it afterwards, and I was afraid that it was an expensive cup...]

The woman said in a sense of guilt, making Rinsheng's eyes widen.

After finishing speaking, the woman turned around and walked out the door. Lin Sheng could only watch her leave in astonishment, and the hanging bell on the door jingled.In the white sunlight, a young woman who looked like a daughter-in-law and a little boy running around excitedly were waiting outside——

[It is rare that a guest who knows you will come to your door. ]

After hearing Cang Lin's words, Lin Sheng still stared at the scene on the other side of the glass door, and responded in a low voice:

[The person my mother is having an affair with. ]

[what! ? ]

[I wondered before whether the other party was my mother's affair partner.

Earlier, my mother had said that an old friend she had known for a long time had come to visit.My mother said that a friend moved back here again, and what she was talking about was the woman and her family.

[You, what are you talking about? ]

Lin Sheng just nodded obediently.

[I'll tell you later. ]

Facing Cang Lin, he must be able to speak.

Although the past will not change because of this.

However, this feeling of always being unable to figure it out and having to continue to rely on reason to convince myself suddenly seemed to change its form, like letting go of a big rock.

The reason for this should not be because one's doubts were finally answered.Today's chance meeting was just a coincidence, and the reason for this result is probably because my mind has already changed, and I no longer view this matter in the same way.

There are thousands of different forms of love. Since there are unforgettable love songs, sometimes there will naturally be twisted and intolerable love affairs.

Love is like the hole in a doughnut, it's there before you know it.

Lin Sheng couldn't help laughing, and his tall shoulders shook accordingly.

[You feel a little sick when you laugh. ]

[It's too much, I still laugh when I think it's funny.But if it’s not funny, you still have to make me laugh. I just can’t do it... Ah, by the way, store manager, can you go shopping with me next time? ]

[shopping?OK, what do you want to buy? ]

[It's just... I want to buy a cup. ]

If I bought a teacup for my mother with the money earned from part-time work, I wonder what kind of expression she will show?

Imagining that moment, the corner of the boy's mouth curled up unconsciously—Rinsheng felt happy for himself like this from the bottom of his heart.

With excitement, Rinsheng asked his lover.

[Then... store manager, what day do you want to rest? ]

please give me a honey donut

[What do you think of this suit? ]

Lin Sheng was originally looking at the teacups arranged on the shelf at the back, but after hearing Cang Lin's words, the tall man turned his small and delicate face around.

On Sunday, it was rare for them to have the same day off, so they took the tram to the department store in the city center.Their destination is a store that sells tableware and utensils, and what they want to buy is a teacup.When Canglin learned that the high school student was going to use the money earned from part-time work to buy things for his mother, he said in admiration, "You and mom have such a good relationship", but Linsheng showed a troubled expression for some reason.

There may be something hidden behind it.

[Look, what about this one?Although the design is cherry, but the shape is similar to the cup you described, your mother will like it, right? ]

The cup in front of me has a beautiful curve full of feminine atmosphere, and there are slender patterns on it. This is the brand designated by Lin Sheng.Rinsheng seemed to want to buy a teacup similar to his mother's broken beloved cup.

Canglin took out a piece of paper in a transparent folder from the bag on his side.At that time, Rinsheng said that "the pattern looks like this", and he drew the original appearance of the broken cup on a thick paper the size of a postcard.The wild berry flowers drawn with colored pencils look as delicate and realistic as a sketch. Linsheng's rare memory still surprises Canglin.

[Hey, don't take it out in this kind of place. ]

Cang Lin was holding a piece of paper next to the cup and making comparisons, Lin Sheng rarely yelled in panic.

[If you don’t take it out now, when will you take it out?You have drawn it specially. ]

[There is no need to draw it specially... Thinking about it carefully, it is a pair of cups, there should be another one left in the house.I just thought I knew it earlier, so I took pictures and brought it here. ]

Cang Lin felt that Lin Sheng seemed rather embarrassed, but after thinking about it carefully——is that the case?

Although Lin Sheng, who is very dexterous, is a young man nowadays, he is still full of rigidity in some places, which can also be seen from the fact that he is interested in sharpening pencils.Because his hands are so dexterous, he can't help but start his hands first when encountering things, but he doesn't seem to like letting others see him.
