The big steps in front of the School of Architecture are dozens of steps high.
Sitting on the top and looking down, you can have a panoramic view of all the surrounding scenery. It is an excellent place to overlook.
The blue sky and lush green shades swayed in the field of vision.
The wind blew along the steps and aisles, bringing a bit of coolness.
If the cicadas chirp in summer again, it will feel even more like midsummer.
Unfortunately, it is not the middle of summer, it is still May, so there is no sound of cicadas chirping.
On the third night of the third lunar month, the new cicada chirps for the first time.
The sound of cicadas starts from the summer solstice in Mangzhong and will continue until the autumnal equinox before gradually stopping.
Guan Lang has liked to sit under the shade of trees and listen to the chirping of cicadas since he was a child. In the hot summer, the little bugs hiding in the trees seem to make a never-ending chirping sound. Just listening to it makes him feel extra special.
Peaceful and cool.
It is said that many people are extremely disgusted with this kind of noise.
It's really puzzling.
Guan Lang still remembers the summer when he was in high school.
At that time, we were still in Jiangcheng, and the sky was a bit clearer than that in Tiannan City.
During lunch break, he was too lazy to go home, so he rested under the shade of the big locust tree in the school.
Accompanied by the chirping of cicadas and the summer breeze, nap seems to have become more colorful.
I vaguely remember that at that time, there were always many female classmates in the school putting down one or two bottles of juice soda next to him with blushing faces, and then trotting away shyly.
The cold aluminum bottle has water droplets rolling on it, making it especially comfortable to apply on your face.
What a nostalgic youth!
Before the cicada sounds, I already feel that the year is passing.
Guan Lang, who was only in his early twenties, could actually understand the chant of time passing by.
However, the high school is restricted by closed management, and everyone is wandering around the school, so they have such leisurely fun to discover this weirdo who is sleeping while fishing.
Now, even though he is more handsome, no one would stay around the college at noon, and naturally no girls came to bring him water.
The only person sitting next to him was Gao Qianhe, who had a sad face.
"I said, what are you doing sitting here?" Guan Lang sat on the steps, holding his hands behind his back, and asked with some confusion.
"I still want to ask you, why don't you go home after eating, and just sit here in a daze?" Gao Qianhe wiped his sweat with the tissue in his hand.
After dinner, he had nothing to do, so he wandered around with Guan Lang who didn't go home.
Who would have thought that Guan Lang wandered back to the academy and was still sitting on the steps of the Great Sun in a daze with a sluggish look on his face.
Seeing Guan Lang's worried look, he thought he was thinking about something, so he didn't bother him.
"Oh, I stopped by to pick up mangoes. When they have fallen enough, I will go home." Guan Lang stared at the mango tree under the steps and said calmly.
The last batch of mango reserves has been eaten up. In order to prevent the mangoes near the college from going to waste, he spent some time sitting here.
"Oh." Gao Qianhe glanced down and saw the dense green fruits on the tree, and he couldn't understand Guan Lang's thoughts.
What's so delicious about these mangoes? They're so sour that he wouldn't want them for free.
"It's really hot. I heard that the weather in Europe has reached 40 degrees." Gao Qianhe stuck out his tongue like a silly dog and fanned his neck with his palm.
He had a class in the courtyard in the afternoon, so he simply didn't go home. He stayed here to finish the class before going back.
"How about you go to the vending machine and buy two bottles of soda." Guan Lang suggested.
He wouldn't be really hot, after all, there was shade from the trees above where they were sitting, and he was quite resistant to heat.
Gao Qianhe nodded, and then stared at him with earnest eyes. He didn't even have money to buy soda now, and the vending machine couldn't swipe his school card.
"Wait a minute, I'll look for you." Guan Lang glanced at him and knew what he meant.
After rummaging around in his pants pocket for a while, Guan Lang took out a dozen coins.
He found this in the upper compartment of the shoe cabinet this morning, and he didn't know when he put it in.
Now he rarely even spends banknotes, let alone coins. All payments require scanning QR codes. If he doesn't take them out, he may never be able to spend them.
He put a handful of coins into Gao Qianhe's hand.
"Just look at the price and buy it." Guan Lang didn't know if it was enough.
Nowadays, the drinks sold in the college's vending machines are getting more and more expensive, and they are all brands that he has never drank much.
Even the most popular Fat House Happy Water is no longer available. It is said that some parents gave the college a suggestion.
How ridiculous!
Qin Yanxi, who was sitting in the office, opened the curtains and was about to water the succulent plants on the windowsill and bask in the sun. She happened to see Guan Lang sitting in a daze on the big steps.
Of course, this was just because her window faced the big steps, so it was normal to spot Guan Lang's figure immediately.
It wasn't because she was thinking about him just now.
But it really made people more and more angry. When she passed by the main classroom in the morning, she heard a few girls talking about Guan Lang, so she slowed down a little.
A few girls were talking about yesterday's practical visit.
"Did you really see it?"
"Yeah, it's absolutely true. After I finished drawing the structure, I was wandering around and saw Guan Lang fishing by the water, and there was a very beautiful girl sitting next to him! The two of them were talking and laughing."
"Eh, no, right? Doesn't it already have an owner?"
"No"
"Who knows, but it's not necessarily true. There is an old man standing next to him. Whoever is in love will bring an old man beside him. I think it's just a girl who happened to strike up a conversation. You know, there are always some unknown
shameless girl"
At that time, Qin Yanxi felt bad after hearing this. She returned to the office and sat in a trance.
Now seeing Guan Lang sitting there in a daze, she felt ashamed and angry. Although she knew that this idiot would definitely not take the initiative to fall in love with a girl, she couldn't bear the idea of other girls taking the initiative.
He looks so attractive, and it has gotten worse recently, which is really worrying.
A sense of urgency came to my mind. If I didn't pay attention, my carrots would be pulled out by others!
Guan Lang didn't notice the resentful eyes in the distance behind him, and still sat there thinking about Xia Tian.
Gao Qianhe came back, looking very happy.
"The vending machine actually has new drinks." Gao Qianhe sat next to him and handed the soda in his hand to Guan Lang.
When I was in elementary school, this gourd-shaped transparent bottled drink was a popular soda on campus.
It's fun and delicious. Press down the glass beads with tight seams. The glass beads will fall down and hit the glass bottle with a crisp sound. Then a string of cool little beads will pour out from both sides of the wall.
When the bottle is shaken, it will make a pleasant tinkling sound.
"Bozi soda, I haven't had it for a long time." Guan Lang shook the Bozi soda in his hand, feeling nostalgic. "But why is it lemon flavored?"
"I can't help it. The orange and candy flavors are all sold out, and only the lemon flavor is left."
