Chapter 1054: Encounter at the Cake Shop
“Winter has just begun.”

The voice that sounded in his ears startled Xiao Zhong, who had a look of regret on his face.

After realizing the meaning of the other party's words and looking at the smile on the other party's face, it couldn't help but curl up the corners of its mouth.

Yes, winter has just begun.

This is the first snow of this year.

There will be many more snowfalls later.

As much snow as it had ever seen in the mountains.

There would be thick snow that could bury its entire body if it accidentally fell off the mushroom.

Stuck in the snow, it feels soft, cool and very comfortable.

Thinking of this, it began to look forward to it.

I hope this heavy snow will last longer and longer.

Because it can't wait for the next heavy snow.

……

Seeing Xiaozhong looking impatient, Xiao Xiao smiled.

He did not disturb the little monster who was in a state of absent-mindedness. He winked at Xiaoyi and said softly, "Xiaoyi, goodbye."

Xiaoyi stood on the mushroom and stretched out his hand to wave in the direction of Xiaoxiao.

Xiao Xiao said goodbye to the monsters in the yard.

Suddenly his expression changed, and the plum fragrance at the tip of his nose became more fragrant silently.

He raised his eyes and saw Mei Nu emerging from the tree trunk again.

"Mei-san, goodbye."

"Master Xiao Xiao, please be careful on the road."

Under the blooming white plum blossoms and in the drifting snowflakes, the plum girl smiled brightly. Although she was dressed in all white, she overwhelmed all the surrounding scenery.

The white plum blossoms are dim and the snowflakes are gone.

……

Xiao Xiao walked out of the alley, and the sky suddenly became brighter. Noise could be heard faintly from not far away.

He stretched out his hand, and a snowflake floated slowly into his palm.

A hint of coolness spread.

Compared to the heavy snow at the beginning, the snow now no longer affects the vision.

It also gives people the leisure to appreciate it.

Xiao Xiao looked up at the snow for a while.

Then I took a taxi back to school.

……

By the time he got out of the car, the snow had stopped.

Looking at the gray-blue sky with a faint glow, the first thought that flashed through his mind was: Xiaozhong is probably going to be disappointed.

He couldn't help but smile.

Hopefully the second heavy snow won't come too late.

……

Although I hoped so, the weather in the next few days was sunny.

The sky is cloudless and clear blue.

The sky, which was azure blue with a hint of gray, seemed somewhat transparent.

Although the wind was bitingly cold, making people shiver subconsciously, the exposed skin was also icy cold.

But when you walk into the circle of light, the sunlight shining on people is very warm.

It makes people squint their eyes comfortably.

……

Although it was a bit disappointing that it didn’t snow, the sunny weather made people’s mood as bright as the high sky.

The so-called disappointment also disappeared.

Xiao Xiao was walking on the way to the dessert shop. Feeling the good mood of several monsters around him, he couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his mouth.

Previously, Zhuge Yun heard a senior from the club talking to someone about a famous dessert shop that had just opened in the shopping mall near the school.

During the first few days after opening, the store was packed with customers every day, and there was a long queue at the cash register.

After returning to the dormitory, Zhuge Yun told Xiao Xiao the news.

At the urging of the little white fox, who looked excited, and since there was nothing else to do at the moment, he went out to buy desserts for these sweet-loving monsters.

……

Xiao Xiao originally wanted to find that store. Would it take some time?
When he arrived at the place, he realized that he had worried too much.

After all, it's too obvious.

Xiao Xiao looked at the lines that had stretched to the doors of other stores and couldn't help but rub his temples.

He actually doesn't like queuing.

……

"Coffee~"

Feifei rubbed Xiao Xiao's cheek with her head, and her already soft voice became even sweeter as if mixed with sugar.

The little white fox wrapped its tail around Xiao Xiao's arm, its urging was self-evident. "Got it."

Xiao Xiao sighed, "Since I'm already here, why would I go back empty-handed?"

Isn't that just queuing?

He just lines up.

……

There are a lot of people in the store.

Xiao Xiao had a headache.

He just lowered his eyes to look at the little white fox who was staring at the cake with sparkling eyes, raised his eyebrows slightly, and went to get the plate with the cake.

……

"Senior, this is delicious!"

"Well, this one is not bad either..."

"and this!"

The girl's crisp cheers were quite penetrating even in the noisy store.

He didn't care.

After all, the girls around me are all girls whose eyes light up when they see beautiful desserts.

A few of the boys also came with their girlfriends.

He had never seen another grown man like him who came alone.

However, the voice of the senior schoolmate that immediately reached his ears startled him, and he immediately turned around to look for the source of the voice.

"I know, I know."

"Be careful not to overturn the plate."

There was a hint of helplessness in the senior's voice.

This voice...

Xiao Xiao walked nimbly through the crowd and soon saw two girls in front of him.

The tall girl who was closer to him wore a pair of silver thin-rimmed glasses, had short hair that reached her ears, a pointed chin, and a refreshing scent of books...

"Sister Yanyan."

The girl looked over as if she had noticed something, and Xiao Xiao's mouth corners curled up slightly.

“Xiaoxiao?!”

The tall girl, Xiao Xiao's cousin Yu Yanyan, was surprised, "What a coincidence."

"How will you be here?"

“Buy a cake.”

Xiao Xiao's simple and straightforward answer made Yu Yanyan laugh.

See what question she asked?
This is a cake shop. What else could you do here if not to buy cakes?
But, "You came here alone?"

She subconsciously looked around him.

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao smiled without changing, not feeling uncomfortable at all, "I came here alone."

"oh oh."

Xiao Xiao's frankness made Yu Yanyan feel that she was making a fuss out of nothing.

It’s not a big deal for a boy to come alone to buy a cake.

"I don't even remember you liking sweets."

Thinking of Xiao Xiao when he was a child, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, "He's still a child, but he always drinks tea with the old man."

"Old-fashioned."

"I don't really like talking."

"Senior."

The girl next to Yu Yanyan called out softly.

"Ah, sorry."

Yu Yanyan smiled apologetically. She was so surprised to see her cousin here that she ignored the existence of her companions for a moment.

"Nuannuan, this is my cousin, Xiao Xiao."

"Xiao" means brave.

"Xiaoxiao, this is my junior from college, and also a junior in the club, Ruan Nuan."

"Hello."

Compared to Yu Yanyan, the petite Ruan Nuan smiled sweetly and generously, "Just call me Nuan Nuan."

"After all, my name is a little hard to pronounce."

The girl winked playfully.

"Hello."

Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved slightly, and then he looked at the people around him, "Let's buy cake first."

　ps: Thank you ANMdream, Xiaoxiaodidi, for the reward I just gave you after a long time (*︶*)!
