Chapter 98 098 Starry Summer
One day at the end of July, Xu Zhe walked into a coffee shop carrying his schoolbag.

The business in this store is a bit deserted, and he has been here more than a dozen times this summer, so the waiters are all familiar.

Seeing him come in, a young waitress smiled and said, "Little brother, are you here to play on the computer again?"

Xu Zhe smiled and nodded, without explaining that he was using a computer and not playing games.Perhaps influenced by the habits of his previous life, he didn't like to prolong conversations with other people, especially to clarify such inconsequential small misunderstandings.

But the waiter was obviously very interested in talking to this shy and cute little boy.

She asked again: "Your little sister didn't come today? Doesn't she always play with you?"

Xu Zhe: "...She arrived a little late."

At this time, another slightly older waiter came over and patted the junior on the head.

"Work hard!"

The young waiter shrank his neck, waited for the senior to leave, smiled at Xu Zhe and said, "It's still a cup of cappuccino and a cup of latte, both with ice, right?"

"Correct."

"OK, wait."

The young waiter smiled at him, then turned and walked away.

Xu Zhe picked up the phone and took a look.He did not light up the phone screen, but used it as a small black mirror to take a look at himself.

He has beautiful eyebrows and a hint of delicacy in his youthfulness. He is not narcissistic and objectively speaking, he should be a relatively good-looking little boy.

It's been almost a year since the accident that was averted.Logically speaking, it seems that he should be used to it, but when Xu Zhe looks in the mirror, he still feels a little uncomfortable and feels lucky.

"Am I late?"

Shen Lan's clear voice suddenly sounded.

Xu Zhe raised his head and saw the short-haired girl walking over quickly.

Shen Lan is still wearing short sleeves and shorts, looking very neat.However, her hair seems to be a little longer than before, and the ends of her hair have fallen below her ears.

He said: "It doesn't matter, it only takes 2 minutes."

Shen Lan sat down - not across the table, but next to him, so that it was easier to watch the same computer screen.

Xu Zhe took out his laptop from his school bag, placed it on the table, and opened it.

"Hello, your cappuccino and latte."

The waiter came over with coffee and placed two cups of coffee in front of the two of them. Before leaving, she looked at Shen Lan and Xu Zhe, who seemed to be a young couple, smiled narrowly, and secretly made an encouraging gesture.

Xu Zhe pretended not to see it.He turned on the computer, adjusted the programming environment, and began to explain in a low voice.

Shen Lan’s introductory language to learn programming is C++.Because I considered that high schools might participate in the Computer Olympiad, and the competition required C++, I simply started with this language.

When tutoring Tang Lingfei, she would take a break of 10 minutes or 10 minutes every half an hour.But when studying with Shen Lan, the schedule is completely different.

After studying for more than an hour at a stretch, until Xu Zhe's attention was a little distracted, Shen Lan agreed to relax and rest for a while.

Xu Zhe took a sip of the coffee that had already become normal temperature and said, "I have now discovered that in addition to IQ, mental strength is also a kind of talent. Whether people can maintain high efficiency for a long time is really completely different from person to person."

Shen Lan: "Are you praising me?"

Xu Zhe put down the coffee cup and nodded: "You are really... very strong."

Shen Lan smiled: "Thank you for the compliment."

Xu Zhe: "I'm serious, you learn so fast."

Shen Lan shook her head: "No matter how fast I am, I can't be as good as you. You haven't even entered the second grade of junior high school. How many languages ​​have you learned?"

Xu Zhe couldn't help scratching his head: "Uh..."

"Are you saying that I can't compete with you? Humph, then you are really confident!" At this point, the girl's straight nose wrinkled, and a hint of coquettishness naturally appeared in the corners of her pretty eyes.

Xu Zhe could only take another sip of cappuccino and try to brush away the topic as if nothing had happened.

But then, Shen Lan's words seemed to be even heavier.

She said: "Can I study for a while longer today? Anyway, you can have dinner here. I want to finish eating here, study for a while, and then go back later."

Xu Zhe: "Why are you so impatient?"

"Because this is the last time," Shen Lan whispered, "Tomorrow, I will go to the provincial capital. The admission procedures there must be completed in advance. The experimental class of the Experimental Middle School..."

Hearing this, Xu Zhe couldn't help turning his head to look at her.

There was a hint of pleading in the girl's beautiful eyes.

Xu Zhe swallowed: "Okay."

In the evening, after the computer study time was over, Xu Zhe sent Shen Lan home.

After all, he felt that a girl could not be allowed to walk alone at night.

But when he arrived at her door, Xu Zhe, who had planned to say goodbye directly, was instead invited in by her.

"Come in and sit down" - that's what she said.But Xu Zhe didn't expect that the place he was sitting was not on the sofa in the living room, but in the girl's bedroom, and on the windowsill.

The two sat sideways on the windowsill, facing each other.

On one side is the dark bedroom space, on the other side is the city night view outside the window and the starry sky on a summer night.

The city is not big, and the lights at night are not enough to cover up the starlight and moonlight.Tonight, the moon has only a hint of crescent, and the moonlight is not so bright, so the stars can be seen clearly.

"Sometimes I don't like to turn on the lights," Shen Lan said, "I just like to sit here and look outside."

Xu Zhe: "Want to look at the stars?"

Shen Lan smiled and said: "Yes, the stars are very quiet, but they twinkle and twinkle. They are quite beautiful, aren't they?"

Xu Zhe nodded: "It's indeed pretty. Having said that, I rarely seem to calm down and look at the stars recently."

The 'recently' he said was nearly a year after his rebirth.The opportunity of rebirth was too precious, and he didn't want to waste it. He always felt that there were a lot of things he wanted to do or should do.

But of course Shen Lan couldn't fully understand what he meant, so she just asked: "Have you been busy making games recently? How is the progress?"

Xu Zhe: "It's okay. The overall logical framework has been set up. Next are some specific modules, and then there is debugging and waiting for materials such as art and sound effects. A draft version should be made before the start of school, and then Find outsourcers to make materials.”

Shen Lan: "Then when I come back next time, which is during the winter vacation, I can see the finished product."

Xu Zhe nodded: "Yes."

Shen Lan sighed: "Then you've already finished it before I can help..."

Xu Zhe: "It's not just this one. There are a lot of project plans in the future, waiting for your help."

Shen Lan nodded, but then said casually: "Then you must have been very busy in the past few years and have no time to socialize with your classmates in the first year of junior high school."

Xu Zhe was a little surprised: "Is there anything you need to socialize with?"

Shen Lan smiled and said, "You don't need to socialize, but others will need you."

Xu Zhe: "Whatever, just don't disturb my business."

Hearing what he said, Shen Lan smiled even more happily.
