Suo Qingjun Chapter 67
bysweet tofu pudding
It was just dawn and the morning fog had not yet cleared, so Jin Xianling went out with her cell phone in her hand.
He was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, with a keychain with a metal badge on his waist. His steps were fast and steady, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes that he had not woken up.When passing by the sweet-scented osmanthus tree downstairs in the community, a few dew-stained leaves fell on his shoulders. He raised his hand and brushed them away casually. His movements were neat and without a trace of procrastination. He still looked like the cool person who was too lazy to post in the circle of friends.
The breakfast shop in the south of the city had opened bustlingly early, the oil pan was sizzling, and the aroma of fried dough sticks mixed with the richness of freshly ground soy milk floated half the street.Jin Xianling walked to the shop, and the boss immediately greeted him with a smile: “Xiao Jin, are you still the same?”
“Two bowls of soy milk, four fried dough sticks, and two steamed buns with meat.” Jin Xianling said calmly, paused, and added, “Add another portion of sweet tofu pudding and put more sugar.”
The boss was stunned for a moment, then joked clearly: “Hey, the taste has changed today? You usually don’t touch sweet things.”
Jin Xianling didn’t respond, but moved his fingertips unconsciously across the phone screen, with an imperceptible hint of cunning flashing in his eyes.He thought of Song Xu’s frowning expression when touching sweets, and he felt a little awkward in his heart – Song Xu had to expose him yesterday about changing ink ingots and hiding them, causing him to lose the game, so he had to be angry with him today.
After all the breakfast was packed in disposable lunch boxes, Jin Xianling walked back carrying the heavy plastic bag.The morning fog gradually dispersed, and the sun shone through the clouds and fell on the tips of his hair.He was not walking fast, and when he passed the crabapple tree on the street, he stopped deliberately, broke off a branch with buds, and casually inserted it into the gap in the handle of the plastic bag.
When he returned to the apartment, Xu Baiyan was already awake and stretching by the glass door of the balcony. Song Xu was sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding a book related to military theory in his hands. The morning light fell on his cold profile, softening the edges a bit.Qing Feng’an was wearing an apron and working in the kitchen. The milk was warming in the pot, and the water vapor floated out, bringing with it a warm smoke.
“Bought it back!” Xu Baiyan was the first to rush forward and reached out to dig through the plastic bag, but Jin Xianling raised his hand to stop him.
Jin Xianling looked at him with raised eyebrows and said in a cool tone: “What’s the rush? Let’s set the table first.”
Xu Baiyan curled his lips and could only obediently get disposable chopsticks and tissues.Jin Xianling carried the plastic bag to the dining table and laid out the soy milk fried dough sticks and meat buns one by one. Finally, she slowly took out the sweet tofu pudding and placed it deliberately in front of Song Xu.
Song Xu paused while turning the book, looked up at him, and frowned slightly: “I don’t eat sweets.”
“I bought it especially for you.” Jin Xianling leaned against the dining table with her arms folded, her face cold, but her eyes were a little narrow, “The boss said this tofu pudding is so sweet that it is the best way to relieve tiredness. You won the game yesterday, so I rewarded you.”
Song Xu stared at the bowl of white and tender tofu curds, with a fine layer of white sugar sprinkled on top, and frowned even more.Of course he knew that Jin Xianling did it on purpose. This boy was clearly holding a grudge and wanted to take revenge on him by buying breakfast.
Xu Baiyan came over to take a look, and immediately burst into laughter: “Jin Xianling, you can do it! Song Xu hates sweet things the most, and you still buy sweet tofu. This is a naked public revenge!”
“Nonsense.” Jin Xianling glanced at him, her tone still cold, “I’m being considerate of my teammates.”
Qing Feng’an came over with warm milk. When she saw the sweet tofu pudding on the dining table, she couldn’t help laughing: “You kid, you are teasing Song Xu again.”
Jin Xianling didn’t say anything, but tilted her head slightly, and her ears turned red quietly.He would not admit that he did it on purpose.
Song Xu looked at the sweet tofu pudding in front of him, then at Jin Xianling’s tough-talking look, and shook his head helplessly.He was silent for a moment, then actually picked up the spoon, took a spoonful of bean curd and put it into his mouth.
The sweet taste exploded in his mouth, and Song Xu’s eyebrows furrowed even more tightly, but he still swallowed it slowly, looked up at Jin Xianling, and said in a calm tone: “It’s okay.”
Jin Xianling was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting that he would actually eat it.He looked at Song Xu’s cold brows, and the awkwardness in his heart suddenly disappeared, replaced by an indescribable warmth.He turned away and pretended to get the meat buns, but he couldn’t help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
Xu Baiyan was dumbfounded. He grabbed Qing Feng’an’s arm and shouted, “Feng An, look! Song Xu actually ate something sweet! The sun has come out in the west!”
Qing Feng’an smiled and shook her head, then reached out and picked up a meat bun and handed it to Jin Xianling: “Eat it quickly, it will get cold in a while.”
Jin Xianling took the bun and took a big bite. The delicious aroma of the meat juice spread in her mouth.He raised his eyes and looked at the three people at the dining table. Xu Baiyan was devouring fried dough sticks, Song Xu was scooping up tofu pudding slowly, and Qing Feng’an was looking at them with gentle eyebrows.
The morning light shines warmly into the living room, falling on the breakfast on the dining table and on the bodies of the four of them, with a sweet smell.The laurel trees outside the window were rustling, the air was full of smoke, and there was an inexplicable jealousy and cunning tenderness among the young people.
