Reminiscence Chapter 6 (Kerrell) Cookies (Part 2)
I hesitated for a while.
I decided not to tell Su Cheng that I was secretly insulted by my "good friend".
After all, I now have no way of telling this matter to others calmly.
But after hesitating for a while, I flattened the basket in my arms on the ground, then lifted the lid to reveal the cool biscuits inside.
"Um...this is a cookie I baked myself. Do you want to eat it?"
"oh oh?"
Su Cheng's eyes sparkled.
"Can I really eat it?"
"Well, you can eat. You're welcome. You can eat as much as you want."
If you don't eat them, these biscuits will have to be thrown away - I secretly added in my mind.
"Then - I won't be polite."
Su Cheng picked up a piece of biscuit and put it into his mouth, making a crunching sound.
After swallowing the biscuit, Su Cheng asked me:
"I taste milk...did you add milk to it?"
"Yeah." Carol nodded, "Your tongue is very powerful. I didn't add much milk, but you can actually taste it."
"It's so delicious."
Su Cheng picked up another biscuit and put it in his mouth.
"It's the first time I've ever tasted such delicious cookies."
I smiled helplessly.
"Thank you for your compliment, but your compliment is too exaggerated."
"No no no."
Su Cheng looked directly at me with serious eyes.
"I'm telling the truth. This is indeed my first time to eat such delicious biscuits."
"Let me ask - what is the recipe of your biscuits?"
“I really want to know how such delicious cookies are made.
"
"Ah, if it's an exclusive secret recipe that cannot be shared with others, then you don't have to force yourself to tell me."
"It's not an exclusive secret recipe that cannot be shared."
I replied.
"The recipe is very simple."
…
I told Su Cheng the recipe of this cookie in detail.
Su Cheng also listened carefully and put the cookies in the basket into his mouth one by one.
"So that's what little biscuits are made for."
Su Cheng nodded solemnly.
"I have made cookies before."
"Eh? Su Cheng, can you also make cookies?"
I cast a curious look at Su Cheng.
"No, I can't do it. It was my first time trying to make cookies."
"Because I suddenly had a whim - I wanted to eat black tea-flavored biscuits."
"But there are actually no black tea-flavored biscuits on the market."
"So I decided to do it myself."
"In order to give the biscuits a black tea flavor, I mix black tea with flour."
"We ended up with piles of stuff that looked like bricks."
"After trying one of these homemade cookies, I poured them all out and I haven't made any cookies since."
"Are you stupid?" I smiled angrily, "How can anyone mix black tea with flour?"
Su Cheng looked at me with a smile, who was amused by what Su Cheng said just now.
I asked him strangely:
"Why are you looking at me with a smile on your face all of a sudden?"
"Nothing. I'm just happy that I achieved my goal."
I didn't understand what Su Cheng meant at all.
Before I had time to think about what Su Cheng meant by what he just said, Su Cheng continued:
"Don't you want to eat? I'm the only one here eating like crazy. I feel really embarrassed."
It wasn't until I heard Su Cheng's words that I realized that half of the basket of biscuits had been eaten by Su Cheng.
I happened to be a little hungry now, so I also twisted some biscuits and ate them with Su Cheng.
The chat with Su Cheng also resumed.
…
…
Chatting with Su Cheng was very pleasant and relaxing.
Don’t worry about whether you’ll run out of things to talk about, make the atmosphere awkward, or talk about something bad.
Su Cheng seemed to have endless topics to talk about. After talking about a certain topic, he would quickly move to the next question very naturally.
Moreover, the topics raised were all appropriate. There was nothing out of the ordinary that I didn’t know how to answer.
And I don’t know if it’s my misunderstanding, but I always feel that every word he says is carefully planned, always allowing me to answer his words well.
I don’t have to waste my brain thinking about topics and how to make the atmosphere less awkward.
All you need to do is listen to Su Cheng's speech and then pick up Su Cheng's words.
Gradually, Su Cheng and I became more interesting in chatting.
We talked until we even ate all the biscuits in the basket without even realizing it.
Even though we were chatting, the sky was getting a little dark and we didn’t know.
We talked until even the unpleasant incident we just encountered gradually faded away.
It wasn't until the light in front of me had dimmed obviously that I realized that it was almost evening.
Looking at the dark sky outside the window next to him, Su Cheng smiled bitterly.
"It seems we have been chatting for a long time..."
"Yeah." I agreed, "I didn't expect it to be dark already... How many hours have we been chatting?"
"It's been at least 3 hours."
Su Cheng stood up from the ground.
"We've been chatting for a long time today, so let's stop talking today."
"Um."
I nodded.
It was not until I realized that it was getting dark that I realized my mouth was already very dry and fatigue was coming like a tide.
After Su Cheng suggested ending today's chat, I nodded.
…
…
Carrying the empty basket with only cookie crumbs left, I returned to the room.
Lying on the bed, recalling what happened today.
Although I encountered some very disappointing things, I also encountered some very happy things.
Thanks to Su Cheng, none of my cookies were wasted, and the heaviness and loss in my heart also disappeared a lot.
Instead, I was excited and happy.
Raised my hand and touched the corner of my mouth.
The corner of my mouth was still slightly upturned because of happiness.
Through this long chat with Su Cheng today, I have a deeper understanding of Su Cheng.
I have been able to be sure that my initial imagination of Su Cheng was completely wrong.
It can even be said that it is completely opposite to my initial imagination of Su Cheng.
Su Cheng is kind and talkative, and is not a violent gangster at all.
The fear I had towards Su Cheng had disappeared without a trace.
I also discovered that Su Cheng seemed to have a habit of saying some strange things that made people confused.
For example, today, Su Cheng suddenly smiled at me who was smiling unhappily at the time, and said something strange like "the goal has been achieved"...
I recalled what Su Cheng said to me today.
Suddenly, I realized something and sat up suddenly from the bed.
Su Cheng spent so much time chatting with me today, could it be to... make me happy when I was full of sorrow...
This idea lingered in my mind.
And the more I thought about it, the more I felt that this idea was very likely...
...
...
I lay back on the bed.
I opened my arms and legs and hugged the quilt on the bed tightly in my arms.
I touched my cheek, and sure enough, it was very hot.
At this moment, I had a new understanding of Su Cheng - he seemed to always have a way to make me blush and my heart beat faster for various reasons.
