"Well... I don't really have anything in particular I want to drink, I'll just watch you drink."
"If you don't drink, then I won't drink either."
Seeing the smile on the face of the milk tea shop lady who had greeted her with a smile gradually become stiff, Mei Fang quickly changed the topic, "Drink, drink, drink. I want a cup of red bean milk tea."
"Me too... It's eight dollars in total, right? Please make us a cup of hot water."
After Lin Youxi paid the bill, he sat next to Mei Fang.
"Why did you order the same thing as me?"
She explained: "I don't know which one tastes better."
"You and Yuanyuan have never been to these milk tea shops before?"
"Very little, no impression."
Lin Youxi thought for a moment, "Besides, haven't milk tea shops only started to increase in the last one or two years? The bubble tea shops before were all small stalls, and they all felt very unhygienic. When I was in elementary school, the boys in my class always liked to take out bubble tea pearls and throw them on the wall to play with, making the wall wet and sticky and disgusting."
"Hahahahaha! I'm quite impressed by what you said."
Mei Fang held up her chin and teased, "You still complain that the bubble milk tea at that time was unhygienic, but I see you ate a lot of potato chips, didn't you?"
"That's different."
Lin Youxi smiled slightly, "Potato chips are a precious intangible cultural heritage of our Baimei County. We must protect their business and keep them alive."
"If you really think it's delicious, that's great."
"Aren't you enjoying your meal too?"
"That's right..."
Mei Fang breathed a sigh of relief.
In his previous life, he was also a real fan of Baimei County potato chips. When he was a child, when he ate potato chips, he always thought that when he had money, he would buy potato chips and eat as much as he could in one go.
However, when he actually had some money, he would come back to buy potato chips, spending dozens of dollars on them. He would put them down after eating a few bites, and then sigh, "Oh, they are not as delicious as when I was a kid."
It seems that these most delicious memories only remain in childhood.
Mei Fang was lost in thought about some memories. When he came to his senses, he saw that Lin Youxi had been staring at him.
"What are you thinking about, Alfon?"
"Well...I was thinking about the past."
"Why do you look so sad when you're thinking about the past?"
Lin Youxi pondered, "Weren't we happy when we were kids?"
"You don't understand. Boys' minds are very complicated."
"..."
Lin Youxi frowned and thought for a while, "This seems to be a phrase commonly used by girls."
"Hey, but I've never seen you use it."
Lin Youxi pouted and gave Mei Fang a cold look. At this time, the milk tea had been prepared and the young lady brought it to Mei Fang and Lin Youxi's table.
Then he handed me a small notebook with heart-shaped sticky notes.
"What is this used for?" Lin Youxi wondered.
"Post it on the wall of our milk tea shop. Post your various opinions and ideas about our shop, your evaluation of the taste, or any thoughts you want to keep as a souvenir. These are all left by former classmates. You can take a look."
"Like This……"
Mei Fang suddenly thought that since this place is close to Baimei No. 1 Middle School, this milk tea shop should be frequently visited by high school students.
After the young lady reminded her, Lin Youxi held the hot milk tea in her hand and curiously looked at the contents on the stickers. Some of them commented on the excellent taste of the milk tea in the store, and some copied sentimental youth literature, for example:
[There is no shadow of you in the sky, but you have truly flown across my colorful world. That faint shadow is the only track I am following for you at this moment.]
Of course, there are also many inexplicable original youth sadness sentences, such as:
[I am looking up at the bright sadness in the sky at a 45-degree angle——by Huan Long Shang]
Mei Fang saw Lin Youxi looking at the stickers with great interest and couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Since you are so interested, would you like to write something?"
Lin Youxi shook her head. "There's nothing special I want to write right now. Next time Yuanyuan and I come, we'll write together."
"Can we both write something?"
"No, I don't want it."
Lin Youxi shook her head. “The ones written by boys and girls together are all lovers. I don’t see any childhood sweethearts writing here.”
"Ah this..."
Mei Fang showed a helpless expression.
Seeing him like this, Lin Youxi suddenly called him out for no apparent reason.
"Afang!"
"how?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to call you."
Lin Youxi squinted her eyes and smiled sweetly, a smile she almost never showed in front of outsiders.
"Ha... You can't call me like that at school, right? You're not used to it?"
"A little bit."
After Lin Youxi finished speaking, she lowered her head and sucked the milk tea seriously with the straw. Mei Fang held her chin and stared at Lin Youxi for a while, then she also lowered her head and began to drink the milk tea.
“This milk tea tastes good.”
"Yeah, that's right! Next time I'll bring Yuanyuan along to drink."
After the two stayed for a while, they saw that the New Year Supermarket in the distance finally opened its roller shutter doors.
"It's about time. Let's go to the mall and see what the winning electric car looks like."
Chapter 072 You're Really Ticklish Here
After Lin Youxi and Mei Fang entered the mall, they quickly found the promotional poster at the entrance.
[New Year Supermarket Opening Rewards Special Event]
[Special Prize: Aima Aidu Li electric car worth 3480 yuan, small and light, fashionable and trendy, the best choice for your travel! ]
Products such as electric vehicles do not increase in price significantly over time, but instead maintain a relatively stable price, with occasional trends of shrinkage. Mei Fang believes that this price is relatively expensive.
"I just barely can afford it."
"That's okay. I also brought money. I'll help you make up for it."
Lin Youxi nodded, "Then I will pay you back next time when I make money."
"Let's not talk about paying back the money for now. Even if you can afford it, your father probably won't like this electric car too much."
The Aidu Li electric vehicle was the hot-selling model of Aima electric vehicles in 08, but it is relatively more beautiful, more compact, and more suitable for ladies to drive.
It would be strange for a man like Lin Guochuan, who is over 1.8 meters tall, to ride a bike like this.
"Um……"
Lin Youxi pondered for a long time and finally decided to stick to the established plan.
"Let's buy this electric car. My dad is a pragmatist. He can wear the same piece of clothing for many years. He doesn't care too much about the appearance of the electric car."
"In that case, wouldn't it be better to keep the money to buy clothes for your father and go shopping with him?"
"He is very busy at work during the weekdays and usually prefers to rest at home on weekends. I don't want to disturb him."
"Oh, your father can't be disturbed to rest. I have to get up so early to accompany you..."
Lin Youxi suddenly turned around and looked at Mei Fang. "But, apart from you and Yuanyuan, I have no one else to count on... How do you want me to repay you?"
Although she had no expression on her face when she said this, her voice sounded a little aggrieved, which made Mei Fang feel embarrassed.
"Haha, I was just joking, don't take it so seriously... Let's go to a nearby car dealership to look at some cars first."
Mei Fang was about to move forward, but Lin Youxi held him back.
"I'm serious. You should think of something you can ask me for, so that I can repay you."
"Goodbye, you helped me a lot when writing code before."
"Then I'll keep playing games at your house, so you won't have anything to play."
"You've been cooking for me during the summer vacation."
"But I ate with you too, and you paid for the food."
"..."
Lin Youxi and Mei Fang walked while counting each other's friendship, and as they counted, they both couldn't help laughing.
"The accounts are simply unclear."
"Yes, after all, the three of us have known each other for so many years..."
"Many, many years."
The two of them strolled all the way to an Aima car dealership. After all, the model they were looking for was this year's flagship hit, and they soon found their target.
"There is a promotion going on right now, the price is only 2980."
"Supermarket raffle items are always overpriced."
The shop owner was also puzzled when he saw two children talking about the price of electric cars.
"You are so young, do you want to buy a bike for yourself? Have you told your parents? If not, then leave. This place of your uncle is not a place for fun."
Lin Youxi subconsciously looked towards Mei Fang, and Mei Fang started making up stories without thinking too much:
"Actually, we are here on behalf of Dad to buy a birthday present for Mom."
"Oh, that's it!"
