Confused, Prunus followed Bombardment Scorch to the cafeteria.
She put her meal card in her suitcase, and since An Qiu took her suitcase away, she was now going to dine and dash.
Prunus, the first time she did not bring her meal card since school started, was flustered. Almond: … What should I do?
"I'll pay for you." Bombardment Scorch looked at the panicked girl and smiled.
Her lips curled into a helpless smile. The problem she was worried about was not a problem at all.
"… Yes, yes, yes.
I'll pay you back tomorrow! "
Prunus nodded like she was pounding garlic. She could not run back to the dormitory from the cafeteria now. Xiong Ying's dormitory was separated from the school building.
The distance was very far.
"Yes."
Noticing her persistence, Bombardment Scorch smiled and walked to the cafeteria's daily menu. There were not many people in the Xiong Ying cafeteria now.
The dishes shown on the menu were all freshly made, and there was no sign of [Sold Out], which made him feel very fresh.
"There are so many dishes to choose from …"
Bai Jian, who also didn't eat so early, was also very touched. After looking through the menu, he said, "Thank you.
She looked at him with sparkling eyes and suddenly approached him, "And, there are so many choices for rice!"
"Yes, yes." — Oh, really?
Do you like to eat rice?
But you're too close!
Being suddenly approached by the girl, the boy was a little startled and nodded reflexively.
Speaking of which, although he invited her on impulse, now that she approached him in such a hurry, the boy remembered another fact: he usually did not spend time alone with girls.
So now,
He was really a little nervous.
Bombardment Scorch awkwardly took a step back,
And carefully looked at her.
— Ah, ah, this girl is a little different from before.
Not to mention that the baby fat from before had disappeared, Bai Jian had also made some progress in her figure. She had grown taller and her body proportions had lengthened, making her seem more feminine than before.
And, more importantly … she had taken off the old heavy black-rimmed glasses and wore contact lenses to correct her vision. When he made eye contact with her, he was more direct.
And every time he met her clear red eyes, he would have an inexplicable … feeling of being directly hit.
Thinking of this, Bombardment Scorch awkwardly turned his head and quickly pressed the meal he liked. After paying with his meal card, Prunus was confused. After three seconds, she reacted and grabbed him at the fastest speed in her life, "Wait, you said you will pay!"
Due to nervousness, she subconsciously dodged Bombardment Scorch: Ah, sorry …
"Little Bombardment Scorch, why are you even more dazed than before?"
Bai Jian took back his meal card and ordered the pork chop rice that he had been looking forward to for a long time with a serious expression on his face as he muttered under his breath.
"It's all your fault for suddenly approaching me." Bombardment Scorch frowned. What a scary girl.
"Hmm?
What did you just say? "Prunus blinked innocently.
"… No." Bombardment Scorch was also very helpless.
…
After a series of twists and turns, he finally took his food and sat down. With a boom, he started eating dinner with Bai Jian.
Xiong Ying Cafeteria's chefs were all superheroes with personalities related to cooking, so the dishes were all super delicious. Prunus ate with relish and said that she must drag An Qiu to eat earlier next time.
As a second-year student, Bombardment Scorch was already used to it. Unable to feel touched by the meal, he turned his attention from the food to the apricot-colored girl in front of him.
It felt as if the little girl in his memory had suddenly grown up and appeared in front of him.
Bombardment Scorch stared at the girl in front of him unscrupulously and suddenly whispered, "… Hey."
"Hmm?"
Prunus blinked her big and round eyes. Her expression was exactly the same as before. Whenever she encountered something that she was curious about, she would have the expression of a curious baby.
"Is your face hurt?" Bombardment Scorch's voice was wooden, and his pair of heterochromatic eyes stared directly at her cheek.
Prunus tilted her head and reached out to touch her cheek. However, no matter how hard she touched it, she could not find the spot where Bombardment Scorch had found it. Seeing that she was getting more and more confused, Bombardment Scorch could not help but reach out his hand again.
He straightened up slightly from the table, reached out his hand to Prunus's face and touched the bottom of her right eye.
It was an extremely long and thin wound. The bloodstain had already dried, so it wouldn't cause any pain even if it was touched like this.
After Bombardment Scorch's instruction, Prunus came to her senses and smiled softly, "Oh, that must be the injury from the indoor training just now. I almost forgot."
Bombardment Scorch was dissatisfied after hearing this, "You should have treated it better."
Her reaction was too abnormal. If his sister in his family hurt her face, wouldn't she wail for a few days?
Prunus blinked and smiled again, "It's okay. It will be fine in a few days."
"You are really …" Bombardment Scorch said helplessly, "At least put a band-aid on it."
"Hey, I feel that you are different from before."
Prunus held a spoon in her hand. She was a little surprised by Bombardment Scorch's concern. In the past, he had ignored her.
Was it because he had joined Xiong Ying?
"Little Bombardment Scorch" seemed to be more reliable than before.
Bombardment Scorch stared at the girl in front of him helplessly.
"I'm going to be a heroine, so I can't be so delicate." Bai Jian lowered her head, and the corners of her mouth curved into a big arc. "I have to be strong." After that, she continued to finish the rice in front of her.
Upon hearing her words, Hong Jiao Leng suddenly fell silent.
Because he remembered that she had said the same thing to him before. But at that time, there was a second half of the sentence, "Mommy said this."
Bombardment Scorch's thoughts gradually returned to the past.
He remembered that since young, Prunus's balance was notoriously bad. Therefore, tripping and bumping into things was a common occurrence.
Sometimes, she would appear in front of him with her injury. Once, he was so curious that he asked her, "Why don't you cry when you are injured?"
Obviously, most girls would cry and wail.
At that time, she answered him like this, "I am going to be a heroine. I can't be so delicate. I have to be strong. Mommy said this."
"Mommy said this." That was her catchphrase.
…
Bombardment Scorch felt even more uncomfortable when he recalled this. He had realized a fact: Just like the second half of the sentence that disappeared, Prunus had lost its mother.
The mother who had asked the talkative boy to apologize to her after causing trouble in Prunus.
The family that he had envied was no longer there.
Thinking of this, Bombardment Scorch suddenly felt that he really wanted to know what had happened to Prunus in the past few years. However, when the words were about to come out of his mouth, he realized that he could not ask the almond-colored girl such a direct question. In the end, all he could say was, "Prunus, how have you been?" He was really worried about her.
When Prunus Almond heard this, she raised her head and looked at the young man with a dumbfounded expression. She almost spat out the rice in her mouth, "I'm fine. Speaking of which … Little Bombardment Scorch, you are even more boring than before."
Bombardment Scorch felt wronged. Prunus was so direct with her words that it hurt.
He rubbed his forehead in annoyance and decided not to argue with the girl with low EQ. He changed the focus of his question, "Actually, there is something that I am very concerned about."
Prunus still had a piece of pork chop in her mouth, so she nodded and gestured for Bombardment Scorch to continue asking.
"I remember that you used to be a person with no personality …" Bombardment Scorch looked down at the plate. He felt a little offended and awkward when he said this kind of question about personality, "Now, you have a personality, right?
What kind of personality do you have? "
Prunus was stunned for a moment, but then she nodded and smiled, "Well, that sounds like a personality similar to the cement teacher. I can create clay and make it move."
As she said this, Prunus stretched out her right fist toward Bombardment Scorch, "Give me your hand!"
Bombardment Scorch confidently stretched out his hand and spread it under Prunus' fist.
Prunus smiled and put a ball of white stuff in Bombardment Scorch's hand. Bombardment Scorch was stunned. While he was puzzled, Prunus stretched out her hand and pinched and poked the ball of white clay to make a bird.
Then, something miraculous happened. The clay bird in the shape of a small bird actually flapped its wings from Hong Charred's frozen palm and flew into the air.
His eyes were full of amazement, and he praised, "What a special personality. Isn't it amazing?"
"Amazing?" Prunus touched the back of her head, a little embarrassed.
"Are you not happy?"
Noticing the slight change in her expression, Hong Jiao Leng asked straightforwardly. He had always been like this. If there was something he cared about, he would immediately ask.
"It's a great personality."
Prunus nodded, "But I wasn't very happy when I was awakened. I didn't want to be awakened."
Bombardment Scorch's expression gradually became serious, "Why?"
"Because I was awakened after my parents' accident. When I was awakened, I hated myself. Have you heard of Little Bombardment Scorch?
It's about the accident that happened to my parents. "Prunus said matter-of-factly.
Bombardment's expression froze, and he nodded expressionlessly. He wanted to ask her.
The smile on Prunus' face gradually faded. She stretched out her hand and let the clay bird rest on her palm. Looking at the little bird in her hand, Prunus said the longest sentence she had ever said to Bombardment, "Sometimes I think that if I had awakened earlier, would I have been able to help my parents instead of being a burden?
If I wasn't so slow on this point, I might have been able to change that incident. "
Prunus had never told anyone about this. Today, she told Bombardment Scorch about it because Bombardment Scorch suddenly mentioned that she was originally a person with no personality.
He was one of the few "elementary school classmates" and "kindergarten classmates" who knew that she was originally a person with no personality.
… She thought that perhaps only Bombardment Scorch could understand her regret.
Bai Jian heaved a sigh of relief in his heart after he finished talking about these miscellaneous matters.
But as her mother said, she couldn't be so delicate. So, she had to grasp this hard-earned personality and learn it well. Then, she would become a hero who could stand on her own. After that, she would …
Prunus' red eyes were full of serious determination.
…
Bombardment Scorch saw the determination on Prunus' face and smiled.
— Well, although so many years had passed, she was still so hardworking.
"Bai Jian, if there's anything I can help you with, please don't hesitate to tell me." Noticing this, Hong Jiao Leng spoke so warmly to Bai Jian, a rare sight in his life.
Prunus was still merciless in this regard. Her tone was full of sincere curiosity, "Well, I'm very grateful, but … Little Bombardment Scorch, are you such a person?"
Bombardment Scorch's face darkened, "What kind of a bastard was I in your eyes?"
Speaking of this, Prunus happily recounted all the things that happened to him in the past, "He always said with a straight face that I was stupid, that I didn't know how to do this, that I didn't know how to do anything. In short, he was a very cold person!
By the way, Little Bombardment Scorch became even more awkward, especially when he was in the second grade. "
"Isn't that because …" Hong Jiao Leng felt wronged. He wanted to argue that he was already very good to her at that time, but when the words were about to come out of his mouth, he was defeated by the excited expression on her face.
— He couldn't possibly tell her that he had a little bit of affection for her back then, could he?
Hurt. Tsundere. Bombardment Scorch put down the chopsticks in his hand, picked up the plate, and looked away from this sad dinner, "… I'm full. I'm going to return the tableware."
Prunus:?????
…
×××
Knife-cutting frowned. Could it be that he was wrong about the horse riding battle?
Destroying Prunus' clay would not cause an explosion?
Knife-cutting had a moment of doubt in his mind. Seeing that the clay bird was about to complete its last wing, he immediately rushed to where Prunus was. Unexpectedly, as he took a step forward, Prunus made five long clay needles from the palm of his hand and threw them in the direction of Knife-cutting.
Knife-cutting dodged backwards, but he was surprised to find that Prunus' target was not him, but the small clay animal on the ground that he had stabbed!
A trace of confusion flashed in his mind, but in the next second, he understood and hurriedly raised his hand in a defensive posture —
"Boom —!"
Almost at the same time that Knife-cutting raised his hand and the long needles thrown by Prunus pierced into the clay animal "corpse", the clay exploded. A series of "boom" sounded in front of Knife-cutting, and because five needles exploded at the same time this time, the scale of the explosion was far more powerful than the one during the horse riding battle!
