The proprietress's eyes lit up.
"...Hey, young man!"
She called to Xiao Xiao, who was not far away.
"Come over here."
"The five servings of ice jelly you wanted are all packed up."
They hadn't been doing nothing while hiding from the city inspectors.
"Sorry."
The proprietress smiled warmly. "Sorry to have kept you waiting."
"Here are your five servings of ice jelly."
You couldn't help laughing at your own audacity.
What a girl from Tiandu.
"Thank you."
He looked completely ill-mannered.
Not everyone could hold their liquor.
"Thank you."
If we went any farther, I'd just tell the others to stop waiting for me.
After all, alcohol could get in the way.
"Turn left at the next fork."
To be honest...
Xiao Xiao smiled.
"You scared me to death."
This wasn't some remote, deserted part of Tiandu...
Huh?
Child's Mom looked a little embarrassed.
But after several tries, she realized that no matter how hard she opened her mouth, it was still too small compared with the container of ice jelly...
"You want some too?"
Xiao Xiao took the ice jelly.
Quickly.
Child's Mom said softly.
He was a somewhat eccentric young man.
I'd go back to the classroom after I finished eating.
She hesitated a little...
But...
There was no one around.
Child's Mom took the child's hand.
Ever since I was little, I had always eaten slowly, chewing each bite thoroughly.
The area was lush and green.
The child tipped her head back, eyes sparkling as she stared at him...
And launched into a lightning-fast ice-jelly-eating spree.
It looked pretty good.
Child's Mom smiled apologetically at the young man sitting on the chair.
But when it came to ice jelly...
She'd forgotten about a few basic courtesies.
