The next day, Meng Xiuming woke up at dawn. Shen Chenchen was already waiting for her upstairs. When he saw Meng Xiuming coming downstairs, he asked with concern,""Junior Brother, did you sleep well last night?"
Meng Xiuming twisted his neck." It's alright. I wonder how Senior Brother slept?"”
Shen Chenchen recalled that Meng Xiuming was standing in front of him naked last night. He felt awkward and forgot to answer Meng Xiuming. Meng Xiuming saw that Shen Chenchen did not respond. He must have occupied the bed and left Shen Chenchen with no place to rest. He also felt a trace of guilt.
The two of them were silent for a while before Shen Chenchen said,""I told you, it doesn't matter where you sleep.”
"Senior brother, the sky is already bright. Let's hurry.”Meng Xiuming had already stepped out of the inn with his sword in hand, and Shen Yangchen hurriedly chased after him.
On the street, the merchants who set up stalls selling vegetables, fruits, and flowers had already prepared for a day's work. The sound of hawking and bargaining was endless, making it very lively.
Meng Xiuming walked in front and saw a shop selling porcelain dolls. He couldn't help but walk over curiously. He picked up a porcelain rooster and looked at it left and right like a playful child. Shen Chenchen saw Meng Xiuming's appearance and said,"Junior Brother, do you like it?"
When Meng Xiuming heard Shen Chenchen's words, he put the porcelain rooster back in embarrassment. Both of them were famous killers in the martial world, but they were actually reluctant to part with a child's toy. If this spread, it would be a joke.
Meng Xiuming turned around and was about to leave when Shen Chenchen stopped her and said,""Since you like it, how about we buy it?”
"It's just some child's play. Senior brother, it's better not to let these unimportant things stop our footsteps.”Although Meng Xiuming didn't seem to mind, Shen Chenchen could still see the longing in his eyes.
It was just a porcelain doll, but it evoked their childhood fantasies at the same time. Neither of them had the joy of childhood. All they had was cruel training to have their current status and the opportunity to stand here.
Shen Chenchen still bought the porcelain rooster and put it in his sleeve.
"Junior brother, why are you walking so fast? Wait for me.”Shen Yangchen looked up. Meng Xiuming had already walked far away, but his red robe was so eye-catching in the crowd that he could still see him clearly through the crowd.
"Senior Brother, hurry up. We have to hurry.”Meng Xiuming shouted with his back facing Shen Chenchen. He was still walking on his own path and had no intention of stopping.
An old man selling candied haws was peddling beside Meng Xiuming. Meng Xiuming saw the candied haws shining brightly under the sun. Shen Chenchen had already caught up to the old man selling candied haws. He bought two skewers of candied haws and handed one to Meng Xiuming.
Meng Xiuming had never eaten anything that his age should have eaten in the snowy mountain. Even if he had eaten it before, it had disappeared with her disappearing memories. As for the thing in front of her, she had no idea what it tasted like.
Shen Chenchen was already savoring the taste of the candied haws, reminiscing about his childhood. Meng Xiuming saw Shen Chenchen eating it so sweetly, so he stuck out his tongue and gently licked it. A sour and sweet taste traveled from the tip of his tongue to the bottom of his tongue, and finally to his heart. It had been a long time since he had eaten such a delicious thing. He had even forgotten what it tasted like, and he did not know how to eat it.
Shen Chenchen saw Meng Xiuming's cute actions and couldn't help but laugh." Junior Brother, what's wrong? You can't bear to eat?”
Meng Xiuming smacked his lips. The candy on the candied hawthorns stuck to her mouth." Senior Brother, do you think we're doing what we should be doing?”
Shen Yangchen raised his hand and wiped the candy from Meng Xiuming's mouth. He was really like a child. Meng Xiuming was stunned. What happened just now?
"Of course, we are looking for our lost childhood.”Shen Chenchen chewed on the candied haws and seemed to be enjoying it.
The lost childhood. The term childhood was already a distant thing. It no longer existed. Meng Xiuming stared blankly at the candied haws in his hands. Was this the taste of childhood?
"Senior brother, we should hurry." Meng Xiuming urged.
"Junior Brother, why are you in such a hurry?" Shen Chenchen was neither anxious nor impatient.
"There's still a long way to go to Jiangnan's Peach Blossom Sect. If we don't hurry, we might not be able to make it before dark.”Meng Xiuming looked at the sun. The sun had just risen. If he quickened his pace, he should be able to reach Jiangnan's Three Heroes Town before sunset.
Shen Yangchen shook his head and quickly followed Meng Xiuming.
