The bright sunlight was cut into countless tiny golden threads by the holes in the window screen, making the girl's ponytail look like dancing gold.

It was such a nice day, so nice that everything was visible in every detail, the cherry-petal-like lips, the charming facial features, the intoxicating eyes, and even the delicate and soft hairs on the skin.

"Good morning." Lu Ling'er said.

"Good night." Jiang Mu said.

He lay down calmly and closed his eyes.

As peaceful as if lying in a coffin.

Then he was pulled up.

"Even if you close your eyes with that 'I must be dreaming' expression, I won't disappear!"

Lu Ling'er pulled his hand hard, "Hurry up, hurry up, the sun is shining on your butt."

"No, Ling'er, it's vacation now. Sleeping in is the inherent right of every student on vacation! Haven't you ever slept in before?"

"Of course not!" Lu Ling'er said firmly.

Jiang Mu said, "How can you say such nonsense?"

I do not believe.

"Because if you sleep late you will miss breakfast." Lu Ling'er said in a strong voice.

Jiang Mu believed it.

He held his forehead and said, "I think a book, whether it is a chronological narrative, a flashback, or an interpolation, must always have a beginning, a development, a turning point, and an end...

So, can you first explain why you were in my room?"

"Because you treated me to a meal yesterday, I'm here to treat you to a meal today... I often go to my classmates' houses to play."

Lu Linger's eyes slightly turned down, "I don't know why, every time I stay for a meal, my friends won't let me go... I asked the uncles and aunts, and they all welcome me."

Jiang Mu: "..."

He thought to himself, why don’t you let you go? Don’t you have any idea?

The uncles and aunts welcome you because no elder would resist feeding the piglets.

"I have a question too." Lu Ling'er raised her hand and glanced down.

"Please say."

"How do you manage to keep a stick upright while sleeping?"

Lu Linger pointed at the quilt with a puzzled look.

"I noticed it when I first entered the room. After watching it for more than ten minutes, it didn't show any signs of falling down... You are amazing."

Keep your eyes on it.

Jiang Mu: "..."

Watched for... ten minutes?

It is difficult to describe the young man’s expression at this moment.

He was so devastated as if the leader found out that his secretary had fired an employee who was injured while saving someone yesterday, and the reason for the firing was "incompetence for the position."

Today’s news happens to be “Don’t let heroes bleed and shed tears.”

Jiang Mu silently bent one leg and propped up the quilt like an umbrella handle, leaving an empty space that was enough to completely accommodate the entire part.

Take a deep breath.

Take another deep breath.

Finally, take a deep breath.

Good, calm down.

I really do want to die.

...in an extremely intense emotion that Jiang Mu rarely showed.

Lu Ling'er obediently walked to the yard and waited for him to come out after changing his clothes.

When he stepped out of the room, Jiang Mu, who could remain calm no matter what happened, returned to his original self.

Lu Ling'er obviously hasn't given up her curiosity:

"Where's the stick? You kept it close to you for so long, it must be very precious, right?"

Jiang Mu felt that he could no longer remain calm.

It's really strange.

It stands to reason that in this world where smartphones are so advanced, it is very normal for a girl of Lu Ling'er's age to find some websites on her phone that ask "Are you sure you are over 18 years old?"

How can one be so ignorant?

Jiang Mu thought about it carefully.

I think it’s probably because there are more pork elbows, braised fish, roast chicken and roast duck on the Internet.

And it can pass the review.

For a foodie girl, it is obvious which one is more attractive.

"...I put the stick away." Jiang Mu changed the subject, "By the way, how did you find my house?"

"Ah, I asked Li Hua, and he sent me the location directly." Lu Ling'er said, "He also specifically asked me about my sense of direction and whether I would get lost... I said how could I get lost if I had the address and navigation? Then he told me to remember to repeat this sentence to you when I see you... What's wrong with this sentence?"

The only son of the ancient clan who has an address and navigation, but still gets lost: "..."

"…Nothing, have you eaten?"

"No, no." Lu Ling'er said immediately.

Her face simply said "Are you going to cook? If so, can you make me some?"

"Then I'll make some for you?"

Lu Ling'er was smiling happily.

"Thank you!"

Jiang Mu walked into the kitchen, and Lu Ling'er followed closely behind him, like a sniffing puppy.

"What are you doing?" the girl asked.

She was so happy that her youthful energy emanated from her whole body, like the fragrance of osmanthus flowers in the yard.

So Jiang Mu also felt a little happy - no cook would refuse a diner like Lu Ling'er.

"Pancakes."

Jiang Mu took out a basin from the refrigerator. "I kneaded the warm water noodles last night and refrigerated them overnight. This should be enough time."

Lu Linger asked: "Why do you emphasize [warm water noodles]?"

"The final product will be different if the water temperature used for kneading the dough is different. Generally, there are three types: boiling water, warm water and cold water..."

Jiang Mu explained casually, "Hot water noodles, also known as boiling water noodles, are boiled noodles. The gluten is destroyed, but the starch is broken down into monosaccharides and disaccharides. In short, the taste is smooth and sweet, which is suitable for making steamed dumplings and steamed buns."

"Cold water noodles are common ramen noodles, which have three characteristics: strong toughness, stiffness, and strong pulling force."

As he spoke, he asked, "Do you want to eat onions?"

"Uh-huh."

"Scallions or shallots? Scallions have a stronger aroma, while shallots have a special flavor."

Lu Linger's expression was as if she was asked "Who to save first if dad and mom fell into the water?"

"Can we try them all?"

she asked cautiously.

Jiang Mu smiled.

"of course can."

The knife light fell like sharp rain.

"Finally, warm water noodles..."

Jiang Mu continued, "The water temperature is about 50 degrees, which is commonly used for various cakes. The texture is soft and chewy, which is what I am going to use now."

Lu Ling'er listened with great interest.

Literally with relish - her mouth was already watering.

The girl suddenly stood up: "Ah! I almost forgot!"

Jiang Mu blinked and watched the girl run away like a silly roe deer, and then run back.

His expression was like a golden retriever approaching with a frisbee in its mouth.

A bag was placed on the table.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry." Lv Ling'er said with a big smile, "Open it and take a look."

"What's this?"

"Open it yourself. Of course it's more fun if you open the gift yourself!"

Jiang Mu turned off the fire without knowing why, and was pulled to sit down by Lu Ling'er.

Reach out and unpack.

It's a small cake.

It was a very small cake, probably only as big as a bowl, with pearl-like candies sprinkled on the white cream. There were two small peaches on the candies, and four words were written in black cream.

happy Birthday.

Jiang Mu asked: "Is it your birthday today?"

Shake his head.

The swaying ponytail looks like a canine's wagging tail.

"No, I gave it to you."

"My birthday is still six months away."

"Hey, how should I put it..."

Lu Ling'er touched her braids and said, "I had a dream last night... maybe it was a dream? In my dream, I went to a movie theater. My sister was in the theater, there were a lot of snacks, there was a person called announcer, and there was a super-huge screen."

She opened her arms, as if to illustrate the enormity of the screen.

The bulging softness trembled, and the two white arms looked like a red-crowned crane spreading its wings.

Jiang Mu's pupils shrank slightly.

"and then?"

he asks.

Lu Ling'er was delighted: "Then the announcer said that we can eat as much snacks as we want!"

Jiang Mu: "..."

So unexpected.

What a reasonable answer.

"Then, I listened to the announcer's recommendation and watched a movie... The movie starred you, and there was an uncle named Luo Zheng. You ate dandan noodles and cakes there."

Lu Ling'er didn't care about Jiang Mu's drastic change of expression, and continued: "I don't really understand it. I wanted to ask Long'er what she thought, but I felt that she was very sad, so I didn't dare to ask..."

--ah.

It's really a distant memory.

Jiang Mu thought.

Time cannot be reversed, this is the truth.
