Under the old locust tree at the entrance of the alley, you can always see Song Xingmian and Su Luoxuan. The two were childhood sweethearts recognized by the neighborhood. Su Luoxuan had been teasing her ever since she started wearing crotchless pants: hiding Song Xingmian's homework to make her anxious, secretly smearing some cream on her while she was eating popsicles, and even quietly loosening her shoelaces when she was carrying her schoolbag. But Song Xingmian didn't like this trick, and always used soft tones to make his ears turn red - such as squeezing his arm and saying, "Lolo, if you are naughty, no one will give you lectures in the future", or stuffing freshly peeled oranges into his mouth and smiling at him as he hurried away.
The two have always been at the top of their grade in terms of performance. Su Luoxuan has a rigorous thinking in science, and Song Xingmian has a solid foundation in liberal arts. They always gather in front of a desk to talk to each other during class breaks. The sound of the pen tip scratching across the test paper has become the most gentle background of high school. They wrote countless sets of test papers together, watched the sunset outside the window together in the evening self-study classroom, and agreed to go to a university in the same city.
But one month before the college entrance examination, everything suddenly changed. Su Luoxuan began to deliberately avoid Song Xingmian, no longer walked with her on the way to school, and refused the exercise books she handed her. Su Xiao was full of confusion, but she could only suppress her doubts in her heart. She still performed well in the examination room, but the familiar figure beside her was always missing when she started writing.
As soon as the college entrance examination bell rang, Su Luoxuan was blocked at the school gate. He was holding a velvet box, his voice was trembling with nervousness, and in front of all his classmates, he knelt on one knee and took out the ring: "Song Xingmian, I have wanted to marry you since I first saw you in kindergarten. The teasing before was because I was afraid of being too obvious, and the alienation before the college entrance examination was because I was afraid of delaying you. Now, are you willing to be my girlfriend, no, my wife?"
Song Xingmian smiled and nodded, but her tears couldn't help but fall. Later, they got admitted to the same top university as they wished, and embarked on a journey together during the first holiday after school started. They have seen the misty rain in the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, walked through the yellow sand in the northwest desert, photographed the sunset by the Erhai Lake, and made a promise to stay together for a lifetime at the foot of the snow-capped mountains. Those teasing and heartbeats in childhood, the forbearance and waiting before the college entrance examination, eventually turned into staying together year after year, making the story of childhood sweethearts bloom the sweetest flowers in time.
