Absinthe

The long queue for buying milk tea moved forward little by little, and finally reached Zhongxiu.

Hao Ai was delivering things to other clerks, and Zhong Xiu was not seen, "Hello, what do you want?"

After a few seconds, he didn't hear anyone speak, and looked up wonderingly, only to realize that the person in front of him was Zhong Xiu.

Hao Ai smiled brightly at him, and pointed to the ordering screen: "What to drink? I'll treat you."

Afraid of delaying the ordering of the people behind, Zhong Xiu quickly said: "I don't know which one is better, just look at it."

He hadn't had much milk tea before, and every time he went around the shopping mall and saw that most of the queues at the milk tea shop were girls, he always felt that this kind of sweet and greasy thing was drunk by little girls.

Hao Ai made the decision for him: "Let's go for the succulent grapefruit, this one is very delicious."

"it is good."

Zhong Xiu took the receipt and stood aside to wait.

"Do you work here part-time every Saturday and Sunday?"

"No," Hao Ai replied while operating the computer, "I work part-time at the cinema on Saturdays."

"That's it." Zhong Xiu had already begun to suspect that Zhong Xiu was also going to work part-time when he asked for leave every Monday night for self-study.

"How long have you been working here?"

Zhong Xiu began to have nothing to say. He was very curious about Hao Ai, but he was too embarrassed to ask more out of politeness and privacy, so he could only find some irrelevant topics.

"It's been almost a year since last summer vacation." Hao Ai answered every question.

"Your succulent grapefruit is ready." The lady clerk next to her handed the milk tea to Zhong Xiu.

Zhong Xiu held the skateboard in one hand and took the milk tea with the other.He skateboarded and stood in front of the counter, then poked open the film on the cup with a straw, took a sip of the juicy grapefruit, it tasted very good, sweet and sour, with a lot of pulp, not greasy at all, Hao Ai ordered it for him It's room temperature, no ice added.

"I have a board too." Hao Ai saw his skateboard and pointed to the corner of the wall, where there was also a long board.

"Longboard ①?" Zhong Xiu remembered that Hao Ai was playing Shuangqiao ②.

"Yes, I play both slacks and longboards."

"You can go down to play first, and I'll go find you after the next shift."

"It's okay, I'll wait for you."

Hao Ai said: "My friend will come to play later."

Zhong Xiu said "Oh", "Are those people from last time?"

"Correct."

"Ok."

"I told my friends, they have an impression of you, we have become classmates, the world is so small."

"Yes." Zhong Xiu waited for him while playing with his phone.

When they arrived at the bowl pool downstairs, several members of the Shamate team were already there.

Qu Yihang saw them first and waved to them, "Brother Yan is here."

"Qu Yihang."

"Clock Hugh."

Several people exchanged names.

Hao Ai asked: "Have you come up with a new trick?"

The red-haired guy I met before said: "Brother Yan, Qu Yihang still only knows Ollie.③"

Qu Yihang said angrily: "Are you worthy of me? You can't even pass Erli ④."

Hao Ai laughed: "It's too good."

Qu Yihang refused to accept it: "I didn't even mention you are good at playing longboard."

There is an inexplicable chain of contempt among many boys in the skateboarding circle. Most of the skateboarders look down on longboarders, thinking that boys who play longboards are for flirting with girls.

Zhong Xiu didn’t think so, skateboarding has no gender boundaries.But he has seen boys playing longboards, they are always very awkward, boys do dance moves on longboards that are not as good-looking as girls.

Today he changed his mind.

Hao Ai stood on the longboard with one foot, and his body was very relaxed when sliding slowly.Then start to accelerate, stand on your feet, and your body and feet move with the rhythm of sliding.

His body lines are slender and beautiful, and his movements are also powerful. Even standing on the board like a girl and turning around in circles is pleasing to the eye.

If the flat land is compared to the sky, then it is like a bird dancing and hovering in the air.Zhong Xiu suddenly felt that he must be very beautiful dancing on the flat ground.
