When he was seventeen years old, Lu Xibai met a young man looking for "happy candy" in a convenience store at the back door of Nancheng No. 1 Middle School.
He squatted in front of the shelf and looked at the ingredient list bag by bag. It took him three minutes to select a bag of lemon-flavored Yoha. Then he turned around and said to her——
"My name is Shen Jingque. The bird that frightens the bow is frightened, and the magpie is the magpie on the magpie bridge."
Later, he took her to the rooftop to see Jupiter and told her that the starlight traveled 600 million kilometers just to be seen. He dialed her phone in the early morning nightmare, and she put two candies into his hand, and the candies slowly melted in her palms. They were trapped in the corridor of the teaching building on a typhoon day. She fell asleep leaning on his shoulder. He covered her with his school uniform, and his shoulder didn't move all night.
He has a sketchbook made of scrap paper. The first page depicts his mother, and the important page depicts her in a convenience store. Tie around his wrist is a red string that his mother had knitted before she died. He hasn't taken it off for three years. He said: "It's not that I can't get out, it's that I don't want to get out."
There is a cardboard box hidden under her bed, which contains all the things her mother left after she left. It has not been opened in three years.
Two people running in the dark saw each other under the cream light of the convenience store.
After the college entrance examination, she went to Beijing and he went to Nanjing. Years later, she was in a convenience store when she heard someone behind her ask - "Excuse me, are there any candies that make people feel happy after eating them?" She turned her head. It's him. The red string is still on the wrist, and the cat is still rolling its eyes on the bag. He said: "Lemon-flavored Yoha, the kind with pink packaging - I just want to hear your answer again."
