Fall in love with summer flamingos

dong dong dong...

"Su Nuan, open the door..." On New Year's Day, Su Yangxia brought the lonely Gu Shiye back to his home where he only came back to sleep every day. He looked down at the things in Gu Shiye's hands with a look of confusion.

"My parents are not around, why are you buying this? It's a waste of money."

As soon as the door opened, I saw Su Nuan with a smile on her face saying, "Brother...you are finally back."

She saw a handsome guy standing next to her, then she looked at Su Yangxia and said, "Brother, you brought your classmates with you." Su Yangxia nodded...

Su Nuan excitedly pulled Gu Shiye's arm and asked him to come in, "Handsome brother, come in quickly..."

Su Nuan was 15 years old and a graceful young lady. Both her brother and sister inherited the best qualities of their parents. On holiday, the girl had her hair down and a lovely oval face, full of innocence. Her legs were as long as her brother's. This was Gu Shiye's first impression of Su Nuan...

"Hello Su Nuan, this is a chocolate cake I brought for you. Your brother said you like it," said Gu Shiye.

Su Nuan showed a surprised expression. She took the chocolate cake in her hand and looked at Gu Shiye and said

"Thank you, brother. What's your name?"

Gu Shiye looked at her smiling face and replied, "Gu Shiye, Shi means time, Ye means cultivation."

"Then I will call you Brother Shi Ye from now on. Brother Shi Ye, you are so nice," Su Nuan said with a smile.

She thanked the person who gave her the cake generously, then sat down at the coffee table, crossed her legs and started eating.

Su Yangxia poured a glass of water for Gu Shiye, glanced at Su Nuan and said in a low voice with disdain

"Su Nuan...we'll finish our meal soon. Can you still eat after this?"

"Thank you," Gu Shiye took the cup from his hand and looked at the kitchen counter and asked Su Yangxia

"Will you cook for me?"

Su Yangxia looked at him and said, "You're asking even though you already know the answer. Otherwise...did I ask you to do this?"

Then he asked Gu Shiye and Su Nuan to watch TV for a while, and he went straight to the kitchen and started to get busy.

Su Nuan ate the cake and looked into Gu Shiye's eyes and said to him proudly

"Brother Shi Ye, my brother's cooking is delicious...even better than my mom's."

Gu Shiye smiled and said, "Well, I had the pleasure of trying it. It was delicious..."

Su Nuan looked at him with a hint of surprise. She didn't expect that this gentle brother had eaten the food cooked by her own brother...

"Yeah, but my brother was also forced..."

"But there are also benefits, hehe... He can cook it for his future sister-in-law in the future." Su Nuan said casually.

The smile on Gu Shiye's face just now disappeared in an instant. He pulled the corner of his mouth and said something and then stopped talking.

He raised his head and looked around at the living room of Su Yangxia's house. It was simply decorated, with a spacious living room. There were only some necessary furniture, no extra decoration, just some basic furniture. A row of small lanterns were newly hung on the balcony glass, and they were lit, as if forcibly catering to this lively festival. The kitchen was also open, and he could see Su Yangxia busy in the kitchen in an apron in the blink of an eye...

On the wall behind the sofa hung a family portrait of four. It was a carefully retouched picture, with assembly-line-like movements and perfunctory smiles. Su Yangxia's face was expressionless, and the photo looked like it had been taken just two years ago...

He suddenly understood why Su Yangxia didn't like to go home after school, but wanted to stay in the old house, because it was full of the breath of life. Every old and yellowed furniture and dusty old objects represented the traces of the family living together.

And here, it looks empty and cold, as if there is no life at all, like a house that has been idle since it was bought and no one lives in it...

Suddenly, there was a sound of a key opening the door. Gu Shiye turned around and was stunned. It was Su Yangxia's parents who came back. He stood up and greeted them.

"Hello, uncle and aunt..." He greeted them stiffly, with no expression on his face... so he seemed a little unenthusiastic and a little awkward...

The middle-aged couple who just came in looked at their son's classmate and smiled politely and nodded at him.

Su Yangxia's mother Yang Wan put down the bag in her hand, looked at Gu Shiye and said to him with a smile

"Come sit down, kid, don't be shy, just treat it like you're at home... Auntie will go cook first, we'll eat later..."

Yang Wan tried to get her son out of the kitchen to accompany his classmates, but she couldn't get him out after pushing him for a long time. The two of them kept talking to each other in the kitchen, occasionally looking down on each other.

Su Yangxia disliked his mother even more... She didn't cut the fish well enough, she didn't put enough ingredients in... She was in the way...

Su Yangxia's father smiled as he entered the room, then went back to his room and never came out again...
