At lunch time that day, Kang Zhier learned from Bandari that Mavis—that is, Elvis's cousin—had returned to the south to recuperate after giving birth.

Her private garden is near Lake Gardens.

"I'm going to see sister Mavis that afternoon." Kang Zhier said a little happily.

"Well," Bandari nodded approvingly, "She will be very happy to know that you are going to visit her."

At that time, Elvis was sitting opposite him, and when he said he was going to see Mavis, he didn't react too much.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Kang Zhier was fully dressed and ready to set off with the gifts prepared by Bandari. Elvis, who had been working in the study, suddenly came to the door.

Seeing him appearing, Kang Zhier seemed to be waiting for him by the door, confused and hesitant, he hesitated for a while before asking him: "Elvis, where are you going?"

Elvis cast his eyes on him, stared at him for a moment, and asked him, "Where are you going?"

Kang Zhier was stopped by Elvis' question, and he was taken aback for a while before answering him: "I'm going to see sister Meivis."

"Well," Elvis nodded, then turned his face away from him, and replied in a most calm tone, "me too."

"..." Kang Zhier didn't think that Elvis would also want to see Mavis, and he muttered softly, "I won't take a car, I'll go on foot."

After he finished, Elvis turned to look at him.

"Kang Zhier," he called Kang Zhier, and then asked him, "Did you misunderstand me? I'm not as expensive as Jingui, and I have to take a car for a ten-minute walk."

Kang Zhier didn't want to waste time communicating with him, so he avoided his gaze, and kept his face away: "Let's go."

After speaking, he lifted his foot and walked out.

From Lake Garden, there is a beautiful road leading to Mid-Levels.There are dense branches and leaves on both sides of the road, and the trees give birth to many long branches. They grow horizontally, cling to each other, and connect and intertwine in the air, forming a green arched tunnel.

The rhythm in the mountains is slower. Although it is summer, the landscape still feels like the turn of spring and summer.

By this time the sun was not too strong and the sky was clear.The thick net woven by the thick leaves shattered the sunlight, and patches of faint light were scattered on the ground.

Kang Zhier walked between the mountain roads under the thin light, enjoying the tranquility of the mountains comfortably.It wasn't until the clouds were blown away that the sunlight quietly penetrated the leaves like clouds and mist, and Kang Zhier saw the shadows of himself and Elvis on the road ahead, and then he remembered the existence of Elvis behind him.

He followed behind Kang Zhier without saying a word, only the long shadow could make people feel his presence.

In foreign countries, even when he was in central China, Kang Zhier seldom recalled his childhood memories.To be precise, it is the memory with Elvis.

Many things were deliberately blurred by him.

But now, it is not clear whether the reason for revisiting the old place, Kang Zhier's childhood memories are always overflowing, very vivid.

Kang Zhier remembered that the two of them used to walk together on this leafy mountain road.The two of them were children then, walking slowly in a safe area and holding each other's hands.To be precise, it was Kang Zhier who held Elvis' hand tightly.

Kang Zhier didn't understand how he relied on Elvis so much at that time, obviously he was not a few years older than himself.

Perhaps the answer is actually very simple, but Kang Zhier never dared to think deeply.Recalling this past event will make Kang Zhier feel uncomfortable.He only dared to be like a dragonfly, allowing the tail of his thoughts to lightly touch the water of the past, and then hurried away.

Along the way, neither of them communicated until they came to Mavis' private garden.

Kang Zhier rang the doorbell and called the servants of the Meiweis family to open the door for them.

Compared with Lake Garden, Mavis' residence is much more delicate and poetic.The servants took care of the garden very well. There were many flowers and leaves dancing in the garden.

Mavis has been raised at home since returning from the hospital due to complications after childbirth.

The baby was sleeping in the nursery when Conchiel and Elvis came in.And Meivis just woke up, and the servant was feeding her medicine.

Kang Zhier and Elvis sat in the living room and waited for her until she finished taking the medicine and was helped out slowly by the servant.

Although Mevis has not fully recovered physically, he looks fine mentally.She was wearing a long, bohemian beige dress that fell to her ankles.People's cheeks look pale because of illness, but there is nothing sick, just pale and thin.Her beautiful long hair was braided into a long braid, slung over her shoulders, and her whole person was filled with the tenderness and peace of a new mother.

When she saw the two of them, she smiled and said softly: "It's so rare that you two came to see me together."

Kang Zhier couldn't bear other people's jokes, and was teased by Mei Weiss, so he quickly got up and went to hold her arm.

Mevis didn't tell the truth, smiled and raised his hand to touch his face.

"Xiaozhi is already a big boy," she said in a very gentle tone, "in my impression, you are still a child."

As she spoke, she reached out to touch Kang Zhier's coat pocket, and teased him: "Are there any biscuits in it?"

Kang Zhier took her hand with a smile and told her: "There are no small biscuits here, but I brought you delicious matcha biscuits."

"Did you do it?" Mavis asked him.

Kang Zhier nodded: "Yes."

"very nice."

After speaking, Mavis turned his face and ordered the servant to make tea.Kang Zhier helped her to sit down on the sofa, and unwrapped the snacks they brought.

After a while, the servant brought the brewed tea, and they sat together to drink afternoon tea.

Mevis tasted a matcha biscuit made by Kang Zhier, and praised: "It's really delicious."

"Do you find it sweet?" Kang Zhier asked her.

Mevis shook his head: "Not sweet, just right."

After speaking, she picked up a piece and handed it to Elvis who was sitting next to her.

Elvis had been quietly drinking tea with his head down, when he saw her suddenly handing over a biscuit, he raised his head and stared at the biscuit hesitantly, as if he was thinking about how to reject Mavis' offer.

Seeing that Elvis was so embarrassed, Kang Zhier wanted to make Elvis eat something he didn't like, but it was too difficult for this person.Therefore, he refused for Elvis: "Forget it, he doesn't like biscuits."

As soon as he said this, the two people present turned to look at him.

Mevis glanced at Kang Zhier, suddenly laughed, then turned to look at Elvis, and asked him one after another in a pleasant tone: "Don't like it? Really don't like it?"

Accompanied by Mevis's laughter, Kang Zhier looked past her and looked at Elvis—seeing a person who was usually so simple, at this moment, he even said "no" as if he was being asked by Mevis. Like" can't be given.

Mevis watched from the sidelines for a few seconds, then smiled knowingly, and easily handed the biscuit to Elvis.

"In my place, you have to eat it if you don't like it," she said.

Kang Zhier looked at Elvis too fascinatedly from the side, and didn't realize how straightforward his eyes were.And Elvis seemed to feel that his staring eyes were too abrupt, so he suddenly turned his face to look at him.

Kang Zhier was taken aback by him, and hastily looked away.

He lowered his head to drink tea, and couldn't see Elvis' expression, but heard Mavis asking Elvis beside him, "How is it?"

Elvis replied in a very calm voice, "It's okay."
