Summer when the monsoon blows
Chapter 1 The Freezer in a Convenience Store
The first time Lin Xi met Chen Yu was late at night in July.
She stood in front of the convenience store freezer holding the carton, and the white air from the freezer door spread over her ankles. The T-shirt she had just finished moving was stuck to her back, and sweat slid down her forehead and into her eyes, making her blink. When the last bottle of lychee soda in the refrigerator was taken away, she heard her sigh collide with the other person's "sorry".
"Here you go." The boy pushed the soda back into her arms, and the water droplets on his fingertips dripped on the bottle, "I see you stood there for three minutes."
He wore a blue shirt that had been washed white, and the cuffs were rolled up to his forearms, revealing a small mole on his wrist bone. Lin Xi stared at the bottle of soda in a daze. It wasn't until the other person turned around to heat up the lunch box that he realized that the broken hair on the back of his neck was wet with sweat, like grass withered by the rain.
That night, Lin Xi sat by the window of the convenience store and watched the boy pick out the green peppers in the lunch box one by one. She suddenly remembered the celadon bowl that was broken when moving. The same thing happened. The cracks spread from the bottom to the edge of the bowl, like a hidden concern.
