Li Shunan glanced at her with dark eyes, snorted lightly, flicked the cigarette butt on his fingertips into the trash can by the side of the road, stood up straight, turned and left.
Jiang Lingzhi stood at the same spot with her schoolbag in her hand, watching the back of the boy leaving, she didn't follow up cheekily anymore.
I don't want to be taken as a money scammer.
The girl was wearing a neat school uniform, thin and slender, with a loose ponytail tied behind her head, a few strands of hair brushed her cheeks, and her blue pleated skirt was blown up by the wind, making her look a little lonely.
People come and go on the road, and there is a sweet smell floating by.
Jiang Lingzhi turned her face to the side, only to realize that there was a cotton candy shop next to her.
There are several modeled cotton candy models at the door, and children are queuing up to buy them.
Jiang Lingzhi has been very obedient since she was a child. Her parents never let her buy such things outside, saying that the things outside are unhygienic.
She had only seen this kind of cotton candy on TV, it was as fluffy as a cloud.
After the children got the marshmallows, they were led away by their parents, with satisfied smiles on their faces.
As if sensing her gaze, the boss yelled at her with a smile: "Little girl, do you want one? It's delicious and not expensive."
Jiang Lingzhi bulged her cheeks, a little discouraged.
No matter how expensive it is, she can't afford it now anyway.
She somewhat regretted the habit of carrying an elderly mobile phone with her when she went to school.
Can't do anything but make phone calls.
Jiang Lingzhi was about to say no, when she raised her head, she saw the person leaning there, and suddenly fell silent.
The boy who had already left did not know when he left and came back again, with his arms crossed, his head tilted, and he leaned lazily against the wall next to the cotton candy store.
He raised his chin slightly, staring at her with indifferent eyes, with a taste of indifference, then took out the wallet from his pocket, took out a 20 yuan note with his slender white fingers and handed it to the boss.
The boss took the money and asked, "One?"
"Um"
The boy spoke very little, and issued a syllable from his throat.
The boss added white sugar to the cotton candy machine, took a bamboo stick and wrapped the cotton candy around it, and a fluffy cotton candy was ready.
"Get the things, I'll give you another ten yuan..." The boss handed the things over with a smile.
The boy didn't answer, and stared at Jiang Lingzhi not far away.
The boss followed the man's gaze and looked at the girl not far away: "Little girl, look at how nice your boyfriend is to you, come here and take it."
Jiang Lingzhi: "..."
She wasn't quite sure if the marshmallow was for her.
After all, he just said that he was cheating money.
Jiang Lingzhi was carrying her schoolbag, hesitating and not daring to go forward.
The boy snorted lightly, stood up straight, did not take the cotton candy, turned around and left unhurriedly.
"Hey... your things..." The boss called him quickly, and he didn't take the things after buying them. He had never seen such a strange customer.
Jiang Lingzhi glanced at the direction the boy was leaving, and suddenly realized.
He hurried over to pick up the marshmallows and ten-yuan notes, thanked the boss, and walked in the direction the boy left.
The boy has long legs, but he doesn't walk very fast.
Jiang Lingzhi quickly walked to the boy's side and thanked him softly: "Thank you..."
"What's there to be thankful for?" The boy said lightly in a slack-looking, lazy voice.
