When Sumu looked at the cafe again during the day, he could easily spot what was unique about this shop.
The first is the decoration, which lacks the attractive and fashionable elements that this street should have.
On the contrary, it is very ordinary, or retro.
There are no pretty ornaments to decorate the signboard, just an ordinary wooden sign hanging on it, surrounded by garlands. The sign says life.
There is a wind chime hanging on the sliding door. Once someone pushes the door, it will make a soft and pleasant sound.
"jingle."
After entering, you will find that there are unique objects inside.
There was no computer on the checkout counter, only a record player that appeared in 1990s movies. The textured record player on it was spinning loudly, and beautiful pure music came from the golden speaker.
However, Su Mu thinks it sounds good because Su Mu likes pure music and is involved in all aspects. No matter old or new, as long as it can arouse Su Mu's mood, he will click to save it.
This song... right.
It is a "confession" written by the Great Demon King.
But the Great Devil is not such a long-standing figure, so why is there a record containing confessions?
Could it be that someone was specially hired to record it?
Can't figure it out.
But now was definitely not the time to think about that kind of thing. Su Mu could feel Xia Ju holding the corner of his clothes tightly beside him, lowering his head and not daring to look at the person on the counter.
The shopkeeper was sitting at the counter, staring at Su Mu and Xia Ju with a cold expression.
"Um...uncle, good afternoon."
Su Mu reluctantly said hello.
"Sorry, people with bad character are not welcome here."
The uncle snorted coldly and immediately finished his words as soon as he started speaking.
Su Mu looked around the store. Apart from a clerk who was cleaning, there was only one customer against the wall, so no one would listen to his words now, so it was a good time to speak.
"Uncle, I know you don't look at us seriously now."
"I just don't treat you as a human being."
The uncle smiled and said lightly: "And this little girl, I just think her eyes are not very good."
"Uncle, I came here especially to thank you."
"Thank me? I haven't done anything worthy of your gratitude, and I can't possibly do anything to help someone like you."
"No, please listen to me first."
Su Mu was unmoved by the unwelcoming attitude of the shop owner, and continued to say politely: "Actually, my girlfriend and I had an argument yesterday, and I was busy working and didn't know that so many unfortunate things had happened to her.
.”
"And she is the kind of girl who likes to worry about others blindly."
Su Mu patted Xia Ju on the shoulder and said, "It's just that she didn't want to let me know what happened, for fear of causing trouble to me. As for me, I've been under a lot of pressure at work recently, so I originally wanted to go look for her in her apartment.
She met to talk and relax, but when she went there, the landlord told me that she had moved."
"I couldn't get through the call because I was anxious. But she sent me a text message saying she would come back to me in a few days. It's not convenient to meet me now."
"At that time, I didn't expect that so many things would happen to her. I just thought that she didn't even tell me about such a big thing as moving, which made me a little angry."
"I couldn't get in touch for a whole day, which made me even more angry. I thought about some random things."
"That's why, uncle, when I saw her again yesterday, I said I didn't know I had a girlfriend. Those were all my angry words because I didn't understand the truth!"
"Later, she told me everything on the way, and I realized what I had done wrong. I'm sorry. Thank you for taking care of her for the day yesterday."
Having said this, Su Mu and Xia Ju lowered their heads a little.
“···”
The shopkeeper was silent for a while, then looked at Xia Ju and asked, "Is that so?"
"Well! I'm sorry, uncle, for bothering you for so long yesterday! This is the tea I bought for you. Although I don't know if you will use it or not, I hope you can accept it!"
Xia Ju nervously handed over her handbag. Success or failure depended on this.
"Already reconciled?"
The shopkeeper didn't answer, he just asked.
"We've made peace. It'll be fine once things are settled."
Su Mu touched Xia Ju's head and said in a natural manner: "Actually, the occasional quarrel can actually deepen the relationship between the two after they resolve it. Of course, we don't like the atmosphere when we quarrel."
"There is no need to come to me, an old man, to explain these things and bring you something."
The shopkeeper took the tea and put it on the counter. He smiled slightly and said, "It will be nice to clear up the misunderstanding. I tell you young man, I have always been very accurate in judging people. This girl will definitely be a very good wife in the future. You have to treat her well."
To others."
"Of course, you don't need to tell me that I will do that too."
Seeing what he had in hand, Su Mu breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart.
"If you have nothing to do, just sit here casually."
The shop owner said.
"No, I have to go out and buy some daily necessities for Xia Ju. She has just moved in with me, and there are quite a lot of things to buy."
Su Mu didn't dare to sit under his nose with such arrogance. It would be really embarrassing if he saw through her.
"Oh. It's okay. Just come and play when you have time."
The shopkeeper frowned.
Summer orange?
Why does the name sound so familiar? It seems like I have heard it somewhere before. But I can't remember it for a while.
"Goodbye, uncle."
Su Mu and Xia Ju turned around, looked at each other, and both breathed a sigh of relief.
What I was most worried about before was that these experienced old people could tell that the two were fake, but it seemed that the shop owner didn't think about that at all.
Or maybe he didn't want to meddle in their business anymore.
No matter what, it's fine. Solving this matter puts Xia Ju's worries aside and allows Su Mu to continue to have the right to pass by the cafe naturally.
Although the weather is hot and dry, Su Mu is in a pretty good mood.
Things are developing for the better. Next, after I help Xia Ju buy some things, I will tell her that I want to go home. After I get home, I will make a phone call and say that I can't come back for the time being and leave the house to her.
, then everything will be fine.
By the way, Xia Ju doesn't have a mobile phone yet, so she has to buy one and register a card for her using her ID card.
Thinking about this, Su Mu was stunned as soon as he reached the door.
It was a girl with twin ponytails. She didn't know whether she cried or wiped her face. It was covered with dust and tears.
The skirt on her body is also a little tattered.
But it's strange that the dress, which looks quite new, has several holes in it, as if it had just been torn.
Not only the skirt, but also two holes in her upper shirt were missing. From Su Mu's angle, she could see her cute pink underwear.
But these are not the key.
The most important thing is that this man was spying on Sumu while talking to himself.
"Uuuuuuuuuuah~ My life is so miserable!"
"I told senior not to be in there, but senior... he still did it, wuwu~"
"But why do people accept that senior gets drunk and treats others like that, and senior still goes out to find other girls?"
"Now I still have the residual warmth of my senior in my body, and it's still warm. But my senior is holding other girls' shoulders and talking about love~"
"My life is so miserable, ah woo woo! Senior, don't you love me anymore? You obviously said you would always love me when you said you were going to stay in there yesterday, woo woo~"
This scene seemed familiar, the familiar face, the bad lines, and the pitiful eyes of the man kneeling on the ground looking directly at him.
I saw more and more eyes, mainly men, gathering around me, as well as the silent and meaningful gazes on the counter behind me, and the silent Xia Ju.
