In the exquisite and elegant teahouse, the faint fragrance of orchids wafted in from the windowsill. The soothing saxophone tune flowed into everyone's ears, bringing a touch of coolness to this scorching hot afternoon.
The youth sitting on the soft leather sofa had picturesque eyebrows, creamy skin, and a pair of slightly upturned cat-like eyes that exuded an innocent charm. His face had already matured when he was young. He looked about 80% similar to his late mother, but he had an additional manly handsomeness.
Even if one looked at him, no one would mistake him for a woman.
He was a picturesque beauty, a feast for the eyes.
Xia Susu took a sip of the drink in her cup. She smiled as she sized up the youth in front of her. She dragged her last syllable and said mysteriously, "Wei Xiaojing, do you have a girlfriend now?"
"No." The youth's voice carried a hint of helplessness. "I promised my older brother that I'm not allowed to date before I'm an adult."
"Eh? Why are you like this? With your looks, you'll definitely charm thousands of boys and girls in our school. "Xia Susu made an exaggerated gesture." Don't be so rigid! It'll be great to be in a romantic relationship and have a carefree youth. "
Wei Jing blinked and frowned slightly. "That's not good. My older brother said that dating without the goal of marriage is all hooliganism."
Xia Susu said, "… Why does your older brother say everything?"
"Because I think what my older brother says makes a lot of sense!" Wei Jing said with an innocent expression.
Xia Susu inexplicably felt as if she had just been shown a loving couple. She must be poisonous to even think of something like this. The girl shook her head and cast aside those strange thoughts. She looked again at Wei Jing, who had an expression that said, "My older brother is so hot." She felt a little worried.
She deliberated and carefully said, "Wei Xiaojing, aren't you and your older brother a little too close?"
"Am I?" The youth propped his chin up with one hand in distress. His exquisite eyebrows were slightly raised as he looked at the girl opposite him. "I've lived with my older brother since I was young. It's been so many years and we've always been like this."
"But you've grown up now! Isn't it a little bad to keep sticking to him? "Xia Susu said.
Then … Xia Susu saw the young man's entire face fall. He looked aggrieved, and his bright black eyes seemed to have lost their luster. She was shocked and quickly tried to salvage the situation. "Actually, it doesn't matter! After all, we've been brothers for so many years. We can slowly change it in the future. "
Wei Jing: "…" Double critical hit!
Xia Susu: "…" Why did she feel that his expression had turned even uglier after she said that?
Thinking about how he would slowly distance himself from his elder brother in the future, Wei Jing felt that the lemon fruit tea in his mouth was no longer sweet. It was suffused with an unbearable sour taste. He forced a smile and pressed the bell to call for the waiter to order a sweet Empress of Snow.
"Is there anything you want to eat?" Wei Jing pushed the menu in front of Xia Susu. "Don't stand on ceremony. It's my treat."
At this moment, Xia Susu inexplicably didn't dare to provoke Wei Jing. She casually pointed at the menu and said, "I'll take this!"
Xia Susu's banana boat arrived quickly, but Wei Jing's had to wait for a while. She scooped up a piece of ice cream with a small spoon and put it in her mouth. The rich vanilla flavor filled her mouth and nose. It was very quiet here.
Xia Susu tried to strike up a conversation. "… The ice cream here is pretty good. Do you want one?"
Wei Jing was just about to say "Sure" when he suddenly remembered that his gums had hurt a few days ago. He waved his hand and said, "Forget it! I don't want to be scolded by my elder brother again and have to eat vegetables under his supervision. " That should be it! He couldn't eat anything that was too cold or spicy … probably …
Xia Susu glanced at the table blankly. She didn't understand what was going on.
After a few minutes, the white and plump Empress of Snow was served on the table. There were six Empress of Snow on a clean and white plate. The plate was decorated with some parsley and dendrobium flowers. It was a beautiful plate. Wei Jing casually picked up one and bit into it. The fresh and sweet cream wrapped around the fresh seasonal fruit. It was sweet but not greasy. He immediately fell in love with it.
Wei Jing's depressed mood finally improved.
He and Xia Susu sat in the restaurant for a while. Wei Jing still had a class at two in the afternoon. He said goodbye to Xia Susu and strode out of the restaurant.
The ice cream in the transparent glass had melted. The various flavors of ice cream were mixed together and looked very unappetizing. Xia Susu felt that something was wrong. She took out her phone and called Le Cheng worriedly.
It rang a few times before the other party picked up.
"Didn't you promise me yesterday that you would come over? Why did you break your promise today? "Xia Susu questioned him as soon as she opened her mouth.
Perhaps it was because of the other side of the phone, the voice on the other side sounded a little muffled. "Sorry, something came up. If that's why you called, I'm hanging up."
"What do you mean?" Xia Susu was about to explode. "Why can't I even ask you a few questions now? Didn't you say that we would be brothers for life? You have no sense of brotherhood at all. "
A delicate girl was so forthright. Le Cheng's depressed mood improved a little. He chuckled softly and said with a touch of gentleness, "Okay, okay, okay! It's my fault. I shouldn't have said anything. Miss Xia, please be magnanimous and forgive me, a … small fry! "
"What's wrong with you? You sound a little strange! "Xia Susu frowned slightly.
"I'm fine!" Le Cheng touched the injured corner of his mouth. His movement was too big, so he pulled it a little. It hurt so much that half of his face was numb. "You called to ask me something, right? Just say it. "
"Oh, oh! I almost forgot because of your interruption. "Xia Susu patted her head in annoyance." It's about Wei Xiaojing and his older brother! I feel that the two of them are a little too close, but what exactly is wrong? I can't put my finger on it. "
She told Le Cheng about her conversation with Wei Jing.
Le Cheng's mouth twitched when he heard this. "… You called just to talk about this?"
Xia Susu agreed self-righteously. "What else can I talk to you about?"
"It's between the two brothers. It's none of our business, okay? Besides, do you think Wei Xiaojing is like that? " He made an exaggerated comparison. "It feels like a lollipop can be taken away by someone else. Do you think his older brother won't keep a tight watch on him? Society is so messy now. I agree that Wei Jing shouldn't be in a relationship. He taught him well … "
When Xia Susu heard this, she thought that he was right. She was indeed like a dog trying to catch a mouse.
The two of them chatted for a while. Xia Susu hadn't seen Le Cheng for many days, so she missed him for some reason. She asked him when he was free to go out with everyone, but he was vague about it. In the end, he hung up the phone.
Xia Susu was speechless. The boat of friendship capsized just like that! Goodbye!
Wei Jing walked through the east gate of the school. The trees on both sides of the road waved their leaves, blocking the scorching sun and bringing a cool breeze to the passersby. The weather in September was still as hot as a big furnace. Everyone was either lying in their bedrooms, going to class, or going out to play. There were only a few people on the road.
Wei Jing silently wiped away the fine beads of sweat on his forehead. Suddenly, he heard a familiar voice.
"Alright, don't worry about it …"
He turned his head in the direction of the voice and saw a tall figure standing under the tree. He wore a cap on his head, and his head was lowered. He was holding a gray mask in his hand, and his body was wrapped tightly. At first glance, he looked like a sneaky bad guy.
Wei Jing was a little puzzled. He said, "Senior … Le Cheng?"
Le Cheng, who thought that he was dressed very inconspicuously, was speechless. He looked away and hung up the phone. He was about to deny it. "You've got the wrong person."
Wei Jing was speechless. Was the word 'idiot' written on his face?
"Alright! It's me. " Le Cheng probably knew that his answer wasn't reliable. He lowered his head and said vaguely, "Why are you here? Aren't you going to class? "
"I just met up with Senior Xia Susu. We just came back from the restaurant." He took two steps forward and stood about a meter away from Le Cheng. He smiled. "Oh yes, I haven't congratulated you for getting into the Finance Department. I thought you would go to the Art Department like me."
The two most popular subjects in University A were Finance and Computer Science.
However, this place was close to Wei Jing's apartment and his painting was mainly taught by Xu Jiaming. Hence, after thinking for two minutes, he directly chose University A.
He didn't want to be too far away from Big Brother!
"It's nothing. After all, I've repeated a year, "Le Cheng said." You don't have to call me Senior anymore. We're on the same level now. "
Wei Jing thought for a while and replied, "Okay." In the past, he would sometimes call Xia Susu and Le Cheng by their names. Sometimes, he would call them Senior. It was the same name, so it didn't matter.
"Le Cheng … No! Le Cheng … You … Why do you keep covering your face? And why are you dressed like this? "Wei Jing asked curiously." What's the matter? "
Le Cheng was speechless.
