Chapter 23

Ren Xinyi's coat is a black woolen coat, mid-length and slim fit. It is very simple, but it makes people more upright.

"Is it really the crow of the world?"

He said something similar to sarcasm, but he was depressed in his heart why his clothes were not so pure and monochromatic, clean, neat and handsome.

For example, the cold-proof clothing on the body, although it is also a large area of ​​black, is matched with white geometric figures.

There are even more colorful clothes in the closet at home.

"annoying."

Su Cheng has been muttering in a low voice, but because of the heavy rain, Ren Xin didn't hear his muttering.

After the sound of the rain became louder, Su Cheng also became quiet.

Pretending to be careless, his eyes drifted past Ren Xinyi, and landed on the wet street. The reflective road surface reflected the colorful lights of this city. It is really a beautiful city.

Su Cheng was very happy.

The two walked one after the other. Although no one spoke, they didn't feel embarrassed at all.

It's a pity that the distance is too short, and after walking for less than 5 minutes, I came to a store.

The storefront is small, and on the yellowed white signboard, there are only four dark red characters of "Auspicious Steamed Dumplings". The cold-proof curtain hanging at the door has also turned a dirty yellow color over time.

The overall feeling is outdated.

This is indeed a well-known time-honored brand in City A.

The moment the curtain was opened, the smell of heating and food filled the nostrils.

Because the taste really makes people's index finger move, Su Cheng is still a little complacent, as if he made all these delicacies, with a show-off pride.

Look, how good my favorite store is.

But when Ren Xinyi really walked into the shop, Su Cheng was stunned.

Only then did he realize that Ren Xin also felt incompatible with this place.

This dumpling shop is really too small, and against Ren Xinyi's extravagance, it looks shabby and desolate.

It feels like a prince entering a beggar's temple.

No matter how you look at it, it feels weird and uncoordinated.

"Why don't we change one?" Su Cheng was suddenly a little embarrassed, and scratched his head in embarrassment.

However, Ren Xinyi just glanced at the few empty tables left in the store, then calmly chose a place near the wall and walked over, took off his coat and put it on the back of the chair with a calm expression, and sat down.

That appearance, as if his appearance here is a natural thing.

Su Cheng was stunned at the door for a while, and then walked over with a complicated expression.

"What stuffing do you want?"

Ren Xin was already immersed in the menu.

This old store has been open for many years. The owner and his family are all authentic northerners. The flour used in the store is sent from the north. The flour used in the store is also from the north. The ways and means of the party.

It's just that I have worked hard on the stuffing and made many improvements.

There are many kinds of steamed dumpling fillings in the store, such as pork, beef, fish, cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, celery, carrots, etc.

"Can you eat mutton?"

Su Cheng leaned over, glanced at the menu, and stopped looking at it.

Ren Xinyi tapped on the menu and slowly swipe it from top to bottom.

"There seems to be no lamb."

Su Cheng smiled mysteriously.

"Of course there's nothing on it, can you eat it?"

Ren Xin also thought about it, in such a cold winter night, it is really good to eat some mutton, so she nodded.

Su Cheng asked again: "Then eat carrots?"

Ren Xin also frowned slightly this time, and after a while, said: "Don't eat."

Su Cheng laughed as soon as he heard it, revealing two shallow dimples.

I seem to have discovered a little personal preference of Mr. Ren again.

Just for this little discovery, Su Cheng was extremely happy.

He quickly ordered three baskets of steamed mutton dumplings, two baskets of steamed dumplings stuffed with carrots, and two large bowls of mutton soup.

When the boss brought the soup over, he exchanged a few familiar words with Su Cheng, saying that it was just you old acquaintances, knowing that during this time, the shop specially serves steamed mutton dumplings.

When he walked away, he specifically asked the two of them to eat and drink slowly, and be careful not to burn them.

After the mutton soup was delivered, the steamed dumplings were delivered quickly, along with two dipping plates.

Su Cheng couldn't wait to pick up a stuffed carrot, and stuffed it directly into his mouth without dipping it in any sauce.

Different from dumplings, the skin of steamed dumplings will become translucent after steaming, and the faint red inside can be seen through the skin. Many people do not like to eat carrots.

But Su Cheng likes it, he likes the faint sweetness of carrots, and the crunchy feeling when he bites them down.

What's more, there is delicious soup in the steamed dumplings of Jixiang Steamed Dumplings.

Aside from being a little hot, it was perfect.

This kind of taste is Su Cheng's favorite.But he knew in his heart that today's taste was very different.

There is no taste that can be compared with today's.

Between joy and sweetness, the pain of not being able to love, the sadness of not daring to beg...

This is... the taste of love!

Su Cheng ate three steamed dumplings in a row, puffing out the heat while puffing out his cheeks.

He already has a baby face, so when he eats like this, he looks even cuter, and it makes people feel that the food has become more delicious.

Su Cheng had already picked up the fourth one and stuffed it into his mouth, only to realize that Ren Xinyi hadn't moved. He was a little embarrassed, pointed to the mutton steamed dumplings in front of Ren Xinyi, and said inarticulately, "Niji."

Ren Xin also glanced at Su Cheng, and then picked up a steamed dumpling in front of him, and imitated Su Cheng without dipping sauce, but he was much more elegant, just bit half of one, and then chewed slowly.

Mutton is a very stinky meat. If it is not handled well, it is actually not so delicious.

But the steamed dumplings here do not have that kind of taste. The mutton has been carefully processed, so there is no smell of mutton. On the contrary, the umami taste of the mutton is particularly strong, plus the rich soup locked in the steamed dumplings.

Ren Xinyi glanced across the store, it was already late at night, but there were still quite a few people.

The taste is so good, no wonder the business is so booming.

Ren Xinyi's gaze finally landed behind the cash register and found a 24-hour sign on the cash register.

It is actually a time-honored brand that operates around the clock.

……

When the two came out after eating the dumplings, Su Cheng was still a little worried: "How is your stomach?"

"Okay." It was obvious that Ren Xinyi was in a good mood after eating delicious dumplings. He looked at his watch, "It's getting late, I'll take you back."

Su Cheng took out his mobile phone and looked at it. Sure enough, it was past eleven o'clock.

"Oops," Su Cheng suddenly remembered, "It's over, I forgot that I came out today to buy an alarm clock."

Ren Xin also looked at Su Cheng strangely.

Su Cheng pouted, feeling very wronged.

"It's all your fault. It's you who made me need to buy an alarm clock, and it's you who made me forget to buy an alarm clock...I'm so miserable."

Ren Xin raised her eyebrows calmly.

Walking out, the rain has stopped now, but the road is still wet, reflecting the cold light of the street lamps.

There were almost no pedestrians on the street, only Ren Xinyi's footsteps fell on the empty street.

Ren Xin also walked a few steps, stopped and looked at Su Cheng with her head tilted.

This scene was so familiar that Su Cheng's heart tightened.

He immediately understood what Ren Xinyi meant, but he didn't know which nerve was suddenly wrong.

Su Cheng didn't want to follow at all.

He pretended not to understand Ren Xinyi's eyes, and turned his head away with a little temper.

Ren Xin also doesn't understand a child's temper at all, but he has never been prone to anger - he prefers to solve problems calmly rather than lose his temper when he doesn't understand the whole story.

"You stopped buying an alarm clock?"

"What time is it? Where can I buy an alarm clock?"

Su Cheng pouted and muttered softly.

"You thought the clock seller was run by your family, how could it be open so late."

In fact, Ren Xin also took the initiative to speak, and Su Cheng felt much more comfortable in his heart, but he was still too embarrassed to change his words immediately.

Ren Xin also walked back to Su Cheng.

"As long as you want to buy, there is nothing you can't buy."

As he said, he handed the handle of the black umbrella to Su Cheng. Seeing that Su Cheng was holding it, he grabbed the tip of the umbrella himself, and pulled Su Cheng forward in this way.

"Sure enough, he should be sent to the hospital."

Su Cheng originally followed, but when he heard this whisper coming from the wind, his whole face suddenly wrinkled into an old orange peel.

No such bullies.

Su Cheng puffed his cheeks, puffing up like a frog.

Not far away, Su Cheng stopped, raised his head, and looked at a big tree by the street.

Ren Xin was also forced to stop and followed Su Cheng's line of sight.

It was a very ordinary tree, but Su Cheng took it very seriously.

Ren Xin also raised an eyebrow.

"what happened?"

After a while, Su Cheng seemed to come back to his senses, he didn't look back at Ren Xinyi, his gaze kept on the big tree, and asked softly, "Do you know what it's called?"

Ren Xinyi turned his gaze to Dashu, shook his head, and asked, "What?"

"The wind is affectionate, and the flowers are smiling. Its name is Mishan Mixiao!"

Su Cheng smiled softly, and his voice was full of honey-like tenderness.

"Legends say that it was a long, long time ago, a pair of very loving lovers, who were old queens.

"People say that its name... is because it has a graceful posture like a smile, and it has a rich fragrance of flowers, so it treats people with a smile, so it is called a smile. But I think it must be because it is very strong, even if it blooms in the early spring when everything is withered , it faces the cold wind alone, and it can smile towards the spring.”

……

In the end, the two still didn't buy an alarm clock.

The main reason was that Ren Xinyi wanted to go directly to a watch brand store to buy an alarm clock when he asked, but was naturally severely rejected by Su Cheng.

Although Su's father and Su's mother can be regarded as high-income occupations, and their family conditions are indeed good, but it is too extravagant to buy an alarm clock from a brand store.

Of course, Su Cheng was embarrassed to say this reason directly.

So when Ren Xin also asked him why, Su Cheng was vague.

Ren Xin also seemed to have noticed something, and asked again.

"What happened to your last alarm clock?"

Su Cheng's face was flushed, but he was too embarrassed to lie in front of Ren Xinyi, so he murmured after a while.

"...Accidentally broke it."

Ren Xin was also thoughtful.

"What number."

It's not a question sentence, it's an affirmative sentence, it's to tell Su Cheng clearly that he already knows that he's not the first one to die in battle.

Su Cheng was silent for a longer time this time before holding back a word.

"seven."

When he said it, Su Cheng's cheeks and neck were already blush.

He was too depressed to talk anymore.

Ren Xin didn't answer either.

The atmosphere in the car was a little silent for a while.

After a long time, until Su Cheng's embarrassing cancer was about to break out, Ren Xinyi responded softly.

"Oh."

I……

Ren Xin also belonged to your uncle, you just laughed again.

Su Cheng turned sideways angrily, not wanting to talk to Ren Xinyi anymore.

He didn't speak, and Ren Xin also wouldn't take the initiative to speak, the two just remained silent.

Su Cheng was frightened, and seeing Ren Xinyi again, he was surprised and happy, now he calmed down after eating, and soon fell asleep.

When the car drove smoothly to the gate of the community, Su Cheng had already fallen asleep.

Ren Xin also waited for a while, but there was no sign of waking up, so he could only push him.

Facts have proved that as long as Su Cheng falls asleep, it is difficult to wake him up.

Be it in the morning or any other time.

Ren Xin also pushed several times, but Su Cheng roughly slapped her away.

Getting anxious, he muttered "Is it annoying?", put his head in one hand, turned over, and went back to sleep.

Ren Xin also looked at the back of her hand that was shot red, and it was at this moment that she suddenly understood how those alarm clocks died.

The author has something to say: Su Cheng: I should be under the car, not in the car...

Ren Xinyi: Don't make trouble, you will catch a cold.
