She turned her head, and the young man by the counter was holding a thick book in his slender fingers.
He lowered his head, his side face was still perfect and delicate, his slender and thick eyelashes blinked from time to time, like a nice little fan.
The boy looked focused, as if nothing in this world had anything to do with him.
Fair and beautiful fingers gently pinched the pages of the book and turned it over.
Kapok also understood why the original owner would miss him so much.
The girl seemed a little bored and started talking to him.
"Little brother, how old are you?"
Her voice was sweet and delicate, pulling Lin Xinghe out of his own small world, he paused for a moment, a little strange, but still answered her a little coldly.
"twenty."
The girl seemed a little surprised, her beautiful lips parted slightly.
"So small? Is this... your side job?"
The original owner only knew that the boy was the owner of the bookstore, but she didn't know him at all.
Don't even know how old he is.
All he knew was his name, Lin Xinghe.
The young man didn't seem to have much interest in answering other people's questions. He frowned slightly, hummed lightly, and took it as a matter of coping.
The girl didn't care about his indifference at all.
"Have you graduated yet?"
The cold boy nodded and hummed again, which can be said to be very cold.
The sound of light footsteps came from the ear, and the young man raised his head slightly in surprise. The beautiful and exquisite girl was already approaching him. Lin Xinghe was slightly startled, subconsciously wanting to lean back.
But he forgot that he was sitting there.
Kapok stopped a step away from him, bent slightly, her long hair also ran to the front with the movement, she hooked the corners of her lips, the color became clearer, and her black eyes were as bright as stars.
"Brother, do you have a girlfriend?"
Her voice was crisp and sweet, and the two of them were very close, and the hot air from her breath sprayed on her ears.
The young man only felt that the tips of his ears were hot, and he was a little at a loss, but his face was still calm, he pursed his lips, his brows and eyes were cold and indifferent.
He lifted his lips slightly.
"No."
After answering, the girl's laughter could be heard softly, and Lin Xinghe looked at her smiling face in surprise.
"Then can you see me?"
The girl has long and thick eyelashes, her skin is white and smooth when viewed from a close distance, and her lips are still beautiful without any decoration.
Lin Xinghe looked at her silently.
The rain outside the bookstore gradually subsided, and Mu Mian caught a glimpse of a familiar black car parked at the school gate.
The girl stood up suddenly, and she blinked at the silent boy.
"I'll go first. What I said just now is serious. Little brother can think about it slowly."
Mu Mian gave him a friendly smile, and walked away from the bookstore.
The crisp and pleasant sound of wind chimes gradually reverberated in the store. The boy's eyes were cold, watching the girl outside the door getting into a black car.
The light rain was pattering, and the car drove away slowly, leaving a splash of water.
-
For several days, Kapok didn't go to the bookstore, nor saw the boy.
After school, the girl stood at the gate of the school, the road was bustling with people, and there were many people in the bookstore. She frowned slightly and did not go there.
"Kapok."
The girl turned her head, and the boy behind him was tall and thin, with short hair. He was wearing a school uniform and was holding a basketball in his hand.
The boy looked at the girl's tender and delicate cheeks, and a pair of dark eyes stared at him inexplicably.
The boy's face turned suspiciously red.
"Are you alone?"
Kapok was a little strange, but still nodded.
