Under nightfall, the Baita Night Market is brightly lit.

Tang Xu and Qin Zheng had been here before, mainly to eat the night market snacks here.

At this moment, Chang Le was driving his electric tricycle, busy delivering drinks to vendors everywhere. This was his only source of extra income from his father.

"Chang Le, here, take it and drink."

When Chang Le went to deliver soda to the barbecue area of ​​the night market, the boss saw that he was young and was sweating in the summer heat, so he simply gave him a bottle of soda.

"No, no, if I want to drink, I can pay for it."

Chang Le had a silly smile on his face and the pot-bellied boss in a black vest couldn't help but joke with him.

"Anyway, you have so many boxes of soda in your truck. You can just open them and drink them. No matter how much you spend, they all belong to your father anyway."

"That won't work. If someone discovers it when delivering the goods, who will still want my goods?"

Chang Le said goodbye to his boss and thought for a while that all the orders had been delivered and he could still take a short break before receiving the temporary order for additional goods.

Just when he was sitting in a daze on the seat of the electric tricycle, he suddenly felt a cold touch on his cheek.

Chang Le turned his head and saw Lin Chumo holding a can of ice-cold soda next to his face.

"Why are you here?"

Chang Le asked subconsciously, but Lin Chumo did not answer immediately. He just raised the soda in his hand again, signaling Chang Le to accept it.

Chang Le had a smile on his face, but he didn't immediately reach out to take the soda in Lin Chumo's hand.

Although he was usually very carefree, he really didn't know Lin Chumo to this extent.

"Drink. I don't force you to commit yourself to me. Although we are not in the same class, we are still classmates. It's just a can of soda. If you don't drink, you are looking down on me."

Lin Chumo's tone seemed a little cold. Although she did this kind of thing with good intentions, after all, she was not like ordinary girls and couldn't do many gentle behaviors.

Chang Le saw her saying this, so he took the soda, pulled the tab, raised his head and took a sip.

"Thank you, Lin Chumo."

He thanked Lin Chumo, but Lin Chumo didn't reply with a polite word. She just stood silently next to Chang Le's electric tricycle and watched Chang Le drink the soda she bought.

Lin Chumo dresses very much like a boy. Even the school's summer uniform, Lin Chumo specifically asked the school to order a boy's style. She is a very heroic-looking girl, with a boyish look and a

With short hair, you naturally lose a lot of the girlish aura you should have in adolescence.

"Why are you here?"

This was the second time Chang Le asked Lin Chumo this question.

Lin Chumo looked at Chang Le's carefree face that always had a smile on his face, opened his mouth slightly, and paused in his tone.

"I... came here specifically to beat you up."

Chang Le was a little stunned for a moment, and he hadn't finished drinking the soda in his hand.

"Then you beat me."

"Don't you ask me why I beat you?"

"The one who eats is soft-spoken, and the one who takes advantage of is short-handed. If I drink your soda and get beaten by you, I don't owe you anything."

"It's not because of this."

Lin Chumo explained that before coming to Baita Night Market, she had an unknown fire in her heart and always wanted to ask Chang Le face to face. She could be rejected, but she hated the other party lying.

But I really found Chang Le at the Baita Night Market. Seeing him driving an electric tricycle back and forth to deliver goods, sweating profusely in the hot summer, I felt a little breathless.

Lin Chumo recalled in her mind the scene when she had close contact with Chang Le for the first time. At that time, as a class cadre, she went to the Academic Affairs Office with another male classmate to get promotional materials. There were not many, but the other party still

Gave her half.

On the way back to class, they ran into Chang Le. Chang Le knew the boy and made a casual joke.

"If you let a girl take so many portions, are you considered a boy?"

This is the first time Lin Chumo has been treated as a girl in the eyes of boys at school. For her, whose summer school uniform is not short skirts, this is not a simple encounter, but a special recognition.

Later on the basketball court, Lin Chumo watched Chang Le defeat the boy head-on and end the game with a gorgeous three-pointer. She felt that she should do what she wanted to do.

"Chang Le, you shouldn't lie to me."

Lin Chumo's expression was extremely serious, and Chang Le could see the solemn look on her face under the bright lights of the night market.

"It seems you know, but I thought you knew it then."

"..."

Lin Chumo was speechless. At least in the past few days, she had always felt that she should respect Chang Le's sexual orientation.

"Why are you so stupid? You are completely different from Lin Guzhou, hahahaha..."

Chang Le burst out laughing, which also made Lin Chumo break his guard on the spot.

The way Chang Le communicated with Lin Chumo was very special. Lin Chumo could feel that she was a girl in Chang Le's eyes, even though she didn't look like a girl at all.

Chang Le saw Lin Chumo always standing, so he moved his body inside so that Lin Chumo could sit on the seat of the electric tricycle with him.

Chang Le patted the seat next to her. Lin Chumo was a little hesitant, but her greatest advantage was her bravery, so she sat on it without thinking too much.

Chang Le reached out and rummaged through the back of the tricycle, and soon found what he was looking for. He used a knife to cut open the cardboard box from above, and then reached out and took out a bottle of juice.

He acted calmly and calmly throughout the whole process, and did not feel there was anything wrong with his actions at all. He was completely different from the person who just talked to the night market owner.

Chang Le handed the juice to Lin Chumo, and Lin Chumo took it smoothly. Chang Le shook his head and sighed.

"Hey, it's a pity that it's not cold. You should drink cold drinks in summer. Try it. This strawberry-flavored juice is a new product that has just been released. It is not sold in many places in Shencheng yet."

"Isn't this the goods you want to help deliver? Isn't it okay to unpack it? What will happen if they don't want it anymore?"

"It's okay. If you don't want me, just take it home. It doesn't matter if you sell less than one box of juice. Our family has a big business and we have plenty in the warehouse."

"But that's not what you just told the night market owner."

"So you heard it..."

Chang Le scratched his head, his face looking a little embarrassed.

Lin Chumo was moved by Chang Le's cute actions. She couldn't help but want to smile, but she suppressed it.

The night market is actually quite hot, because the temperature is relatively high in summer, and all the stalls in the night market are open to make various snacks, so even if they are on the edge of the night market, they can still feel the hot wind in the air.

Lin Chumo unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip of the strawberry-flavored juice that Chang Le handed her. The taste was not particularly rich and did not feel sweet, but rather refreshing.

Chang Le would help his father deliver goods at the Baita Night Market. This was the news that Lin Chumo heard from Lin Guzhou before. And this brief encounter was except for the last time when Lin Chumo failed to confess to Chang Le.

, the only time the two of them get together.

Lin Chumo and Chang Le are not in the same class. She is a student in Class 7, Grade 2, and due to their different genders, she naturally doesn't have much contact with Chang Le on weekdays.

Lin Chumo didn't ask Chang Le the real reason for rejecting his confession, nor did he ask what he heard from Tang Xu and Qin Zheng, who Chang Le said he liked someone.

Lin Chumo just sat on the electric tricycle he was delivering goods with Chang Le. The two of them finished their drinks. After Chang Le received the call to replenish the goods, Lin Chumo was very conscious and took the initiative to get out of the electric tricycle.

Came down.

"See you at school then, Lin Chumo."

Chang Le rode an electric tricycle and waved to Lin Chumo with a smile before leaving.

Lin Chumo also wanted to raise his hand to respond, but as soon as his elbow was slightly bent, he instinctively retracted his hand.

Chang Le's electric tricycle drove away in Lin Chumo's sight, and there was no need for her to stay.

"What on earth am I doing here..."

Lin Chumo murmured to herself. She looked down at the empty juice bottle in her hand, walked a few steps to the trash can at the back, and was about to reach out and throw the empty bottle in, but hesitated at the last moment.

"There is a saying, such a beautiful bottle must have other uses when you take it home. Chang Le, I seem to like you more."

Looking at the new strawberry-flavored juice bottle with pink packaging, Lin Chumo's lips unconsciously revealed a smile, just like the white jasmine blooming in June.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, Chang Le drove his electric tricycle for delivery home after finishing his work.

Chang Le felt extremely happy when he thought that he could earn a lot of extra money from his father through his own efforts today.

After leaving the Baita Night Market and hitting the road, Chang Le felt comfortable and cool all over as the evening breeze blew in his face.

He took out the harmonica given to him by Tang Xu from his pocket, and while driving the electric tricycle slowly, he held the harmonica to his mouth with one hand and played randomly.

He doesn't know how to play the harmonica, it's just for fun.

Before the electric tricycle went very far along the road, Chang Le was stopped by the traffic policeman on duty in front with his arm extended.

"Uncle policeman, what's wrong?"

Chang Le stopped the car and asked the traffic police.

The traffic policeman glanced at Chang Le and pointed at the harmonica he was holding.

Chang Le frowned and subconsciously reached out to take the harmonica into his arms.

"You can seize my car if you want, but you can't seize my harmonica."

The traffic policeman was a little dumbfounded after hearing this, but was later amused by Chang Le's move.

"Why, your electric tricycle doesn't have a horn, so you have to bring a harmonica to play as a trumpet? Who wants your harmonica? Do you know that driving an electric tricycle with one hand is very dangerous? Besides, you can't play it well.

It doesn’t sound good, you might as well hang a whistle around your neck.”

"I'm just starting to learn it, right? I'll become a great person over time."

"Who told you about your harmonica playing? It's a matter of dangerous driving. Do you understand, brat?"

However, the National Road Safety and Traffic Law stipulates that one can drive an electric tricycle at the age of sixteen, so in the next period of time, Chang Le was forced to receive one-on-one education on safe driving from the traffic police uncle on the side of the road.

Of course, in the end, both the harmonica and the tricycle were saved, which was still something to be happy about for Chang Le.

He protected all the important things, whether it was a harmonica, a tricycle, or a heartfelt optimism about life.

Riding in the night, Chang Le's electric tricycle set off in the direction of his home again, but this time it became silent.
