The night is deep.
For the first time in Gu Miao's dark dreams, a slight light appeared.

He dreamed of talking to the girl for the first time.
( his memories)

It was an early autumn night in the first year of high school.
It was past eight in the evening, and there were only three or two people sitting in the noodle shop.

Xiao Wang in front of the revenue desk answered the phone and hurriedly said that there was something at home and that he might have to go first.


As usual, there should be two people in the store, Xiao Wang is responsible for ordering and collecting money, and Gu Miao cooks the noodles in the back kitchen.

Gu Miao had spent a lot of energy before finding this job.


After the death of his parents, he left no inheritance. The uncle who adopted him was not wealthy. Now he has a child and is even more stretched..to support him

So after school every day, he will go to work part-time for three hours, and he can save some living expenses.

But a part-time job is not easy to find, and he asked several companies in a row, either because they were afraid of causing troubles and didn't hire students, but because he was not easy to speak and communicate with others.

He overwhelmed his salary very low, and the owner of the noddle shop looked at him pitifully, and finally reluctantly agreed to him to cook the noodles in the back kitchen.

This job was hard-won, and the colleagues in the store is also very good...

Seeing him hesitating, Xiao Wang said anxiously

: "There are not many people in the store now, you just sit here, people order, you just nod, don't say anything."


Gu Miao thought for a while and nodded hesitantly.

In fact, he was just afraid of speaking slowly, causing dissatisfaction with customers and causing trouble in the store.

"Thank you." Xiao Wang smiled and patted him on the shoulder

"Thank you again, Brother Gu"

There were indeed no people in the shop. After Xiao Wang left, several diners finished the noodles, paid directly and left.
Gu Miao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In early autumn, the plane tree next to the store was golden, and a few leaves were blown by the evening breeze, which erraticly fell on the steps in front of the store.

Gu Miao lowered his head to sort out the money in the cash register, and heard a few slight noises at the door.

He raised his eyes and saw the girl slowly walking into the store carrying the beige schoolbag.

The dark blue autumn school uniform made her face white, and the incandescent lamp in the store dazzled her slightly raised peach eyes.

At this moment, the girl was looking up slightly, looking at the menu posted on the wall intently, and then she turned her head for a while and asked him

"What is the three fresh rice noodles?"

Her voice was crisp and sweet, like a stream on a spring mountain flowing over a dry ridge.

Gu Miao's heart trembled fiercely.

"Just, that ..that...that.....is...is.. with...with...rice...rice...n...noo..dles.... mushrooms... .  .."

Gu Miao paused, wishing to slap his disobedient mouth severely.

He closed his eyes resignedly, waiting for the girl to interrupt impatiently.

The shop was silent, and even the sound of yellow leaves falling on the steps could be heard clearly.


The disgusting tone that had appeared countless times in his memory did not appear.


Gu Miao's eyelashes trembled and opened his eyes to look at her.


The girl's eyes were clear, like a limpid lake, without a trace of impatience, but with some shallow doubts

: "Apart from mushrooms, what else?"

She didn't care about his stutter.


Gu Miao breathed a sigh of relief, his ice-like heart slowly dissipated, and he connected and said that the words came out smoothly

: "Also, lean.....lean...lean...meat... meat .... pork ....pork....liver."

A faint smile appeared on the girl's lips

"Then a bowl of three fresh rice noodles, add an omelette, thank you."


Gu Miao pursed his lips and nodded slightly.

Under the bright lights in the store, he looked at the girl's slender back, only to feel that a ray of light slowly rose from the bottom of his dark heart.

This is the first time someone has treated him patiently and peacefully.


He returned to the kitchen and silently lowered his head to cook ... before serving it to the girl.

"Thank you."
She thanked with a faint smile, with two sweet dimples on the corners of her mouth.


Gu Miao felt his heart hit hard, and his ears could not help but warm up.


"No.. no....no... need."



The clocks on the wall were ringing, and there was no one in the store. After Gu Miao returned to the cash register, he took out the textbooks and read the books quietly.

But his mind was erratic, and his eyes couldn't help but drifted away.

Before turning a few pages of the book, a tall figure rushed into the shop.

Gu Miao raised his eyes and saw the person clearly, his eyes flashed, and his hand holding the textbook was quietly clenched.


That is Wang Donghai, the "boss" in their class, who loves to make fun of him on weekdays.

Wang Donghai also didn't expect Gu Miao to work in this shop. His thick thick eyebrows were raised in surprise, and he walked into the counter and patted hard.

Gu Miao put down the book and looked at him with black eyes without any emotion.

"A bowl of clear soup powder, add beef."

After he said this, he turned around and found a seat to sit down.

There was no fault.

Gu Miao was a little surprised. Wang Donghai is a group of people who love to give him some color on weekdays. Either pass by and kick his desk, or a group of people gather together to make him stutter.

But today, he even let go of this opportunity to find trouble.
No trouble is of course the best.
