Chapter 3164: The "Two-Faced" Maple Leaf
The boy took a deep breath in his heart.

"I suddenly remembered something."

The boy smiled sheepishly at his two companions.

"You go ahead."

"I won't go with you."

The boy tried hard to control his tone and expression.

My whole body was so tense that it seemed like it would explode in the next second.

……

The two boys looked at each other.

Although they both saw doubt on each other's faces...

"Oh."

"alright."

They didn't ask any more questions.

One of them handed the bag to the boy.

"Here."

“We bought ice cream.”

"You suddenly disappeared just now..."

They looked around but couldn't find anyone.

But they had waited in line for such a long time, so naturally they didn’t want to return empty-handed.

"We just picked a flavor for you at random."

"I hope it's not a flavor you hate."

……

“I don’t have a bad taste.”

The boy grinned.

He just didn't like the taste very much.

"Thank you."

The boy was a little surprised, but more happy, as he didn't expect them to buy him ice cream as well.

But soon...

Looking at the bag of ice cream being held in front of him, the boy realized that he was too happy too early.

He now had both hands busy.

So how does he take the bag from his friend?

How should he explain his current situation to his friends?
Especially just a few seconds ago, he denied the other party's speculation about him.

Said his hands did nothing.

This is just great.

The slap in the face came so quickly.

If his hands weren't doing anything, why wasn't he reaching for the bag of ice cream?

……

The boy was suddenly caught in a dilemma.

……

Xiao Xiao stood under the shade of the tree, and it seemed that the three boys did not notice his presence.

He tilted his head slightly and watched with interest.

……

"Song Xiaxuan?"

The boy holding the bag shook the bag in his hand slightly and said, "Go ahead."

……

"No-"

The boy shook his head.

He had no choice but to reject his friend's kindness.

Although this made him feel very embarrassed.

but……

He clenched his hands even more.

……

"Harmful."

The boy holding the bag curled his lips.

"Really."

Seeing the other party's dazed and slow look, the boy directly hung the bag on Ruan Jinan's wrist.

"Take it."

The boy was a little impatient.

"Don't drop it."

“This ice cream is expensive.”

……

The other party's direct behavior made the boy a little unresponsive.

This……

……

"We walked."

The two boys waved to Ruan Jinan and turned away.

……

After the two boys walked away, the boy seemed to react and let out a cry.

He hadn't given them the money for his ice cream yet.

……

I’ll give it to you later.

The boy breathed a sigh of relief.

In any case, the departure of the two boys relieved his stress a lot.

Because of those two boys, the boy's rationality, which had been clouded by excitement, returned to his mind.

He looked around.

Looking for a secluded spot -
The boy was stunned.

He saw the man under a big tree not far away.

That location...

In other words, the man should have seen clearly what happened here just now from that position.

The boy's face suddenly turned blue and purple.

What he cared about was naturally not the scene of his conversation with his friends just now.

But it’s the scene before where he grabs the maple leaf.

He couldn't imagine what kind of image he had in the other person's eyes.

……Um?
The boy's eyes suddenly widened.

The figure who was about to leave paused.

……

Xiao Xiao smiled at the boy who looked at him.

……

Out of politeness, even though he was confused, the boy still tried to curl his lips towards the man.

He didn't need to look to know how stiff his smile was.

The truth is that his current condition is really not suitable for dealing with people.

I can feel the force in my hands getting stronger and stronger.

Maple Leaf may break free of his shackles at any time.

……

The boy pursed his lips tightly.

No...

After so many years...

He finally found it again...

This time, he will not make the wrong choice because of other people's opinions.

……

The boy wanted to turn around and leave.

He didn't care whether his hasty departure would make the other party feel strange.

We were strangers.

If it was strange, it was also strange that the young man smiled at him.

They don't know each other.

Why should you greet him?
……

But-
"what!"

The boy exclaimed.

The half-turned body suddenly twisted back.

Maple leaf!

……

The maple leaf finally made a crack in the boy's tightly clenched hand.

The thin leaf slid out nimbly.

It spun in a circle in mid-air.

The leaf tips point downward.

Like a ballerina dancing on tiptoe.

Dancing in the light and shadows between the leaves.

The bright red color shines brightly.

……

The boy was stunned.

He reacted quickly and stretched out his hand.

He wanted to grab the maple leaf again.

……

But this time the boy was obviously not as lucky as before.

The maple leaf brushed past his fingertips and flew forward.

……

The boy's eyes followed the maple leaves floating up and down.

People also chased after him.

……

Um! ?

The boy couldn't help but stop.

He saw the maple leaf fall into his open palm.

The fiery red maple leaves and the man's slender palms, this scene inexplicably exudes a sense of elegance.

……

But soon, the boy reacted.

Maple Leaf didn't struggle! ?
why?
Thinking of Maple Leaf's fierce struggle in his palm before, the boy was full of confusion.

Ah!
A guess flashed through the boy's mind.

is not it……

The maple leaf didn't want the man to notice its difference?

So, Fengye was struggling because he recognized him?
For a moment, the boy was surprised and sad.

The surprise was naturally that Fengye recognized him.

What’s sad is Maple Leaf’s struggle.

Maple Leaf...are you still angry with him?

Also.

He himself felt that he had gone too far at that time...

The boy's expression suddenly dimmed.

……

but……

The boy shook his head vigorously.

Now is not the time to be sad.

It’s not easy…

The opportunity to make amends is right before our eyes.

……

The boy stared at the man in the shade of the tree.

The other party didn't look ferocious, but rather had a very elegant and well-mannered look, which made the boy secretly relieved.

Because of the angle, distance, and the shade of the trees, this man inexplicably made him feel a little...

How to say?
Feeling of not being able to approach?
Now that he has seen the real person up close, he just wants to say that illusions are indeed misleading.

……

“…This maple leaf is mine.”

Seeing the man's questioning look, he seemed to be about to say something in the next second...

He blurted out the words declaring sovereignty.

After he finished speaking, he was a little surprised himself.

When had he ever said such "impolite" words to a stranger?
