Li Jiayi put ten yuan on the display counter, "Deskmate, I want to buy two ice creams, one lychee-flavored, and one waterlon-flavored."
"Oh." Jiang Wenqing put the money away and was about to tell Chen Mo, but Chen Mo had already taken out two popsicles from the freezer.
Jiang Wenqing was a bit stunned.
These popsicles were unlike any he had seen before.
The waterlon-flavored one looked exactly like a sliced piece of waterlon, with red flesh dotted with waterlon seeds, and a layer of green rind on the outside!
The lychee-flavored one was even more interesting.
Four round white lychee balls were skewered onto a stick, looking just like real lychees, crystal clear and incredibly beautiful.
Handing the ice cream to Li Jingyi, Jiang Wenqing’s face inexplicably turned red.
It wasn’t because of contact with a girl; it was mainly because, just minutes ago, he was a little transparent kid in the class, the one who was isolated.
The next second, he suddenly beca the center of attention for classmates from his class and others, and this change in status made Jiang Wenqing a bit uncomfortable.
Li Jingyi held the ice cream, then stretched back the waterlon-flavored one, "Hey, isn’t waterlon your favorite fruit? This one’s on , you eat it."
Jiang Wenqing’s face turned red again as he took the ice cream.
Wu Jun was watching from the crowd, gritting his teeth.
Once there was a first, the other classmates also started to open up, especially after seeing how nice those two popsicles looked. When they saw Li Jingyi take a bite of the crystal-clear lychee, as if a cool air wrapped around from within, the elentary school students couldn’t resist any longer!
"Jiang Wenqing, Jiang Wenqing!" Xiao Pang raised ten yuan high, "Do you have milk balls? I want a strawberry-flavored milk ball."
Chen Mo half-bent into the freezer behind him, "Strawberry-flavored milk ball."
There was a small chanism at the bottom of the freezer, making a few thumping sounds, as a serving of strawberry milk balls was pushed out from an unseen black hole below.
Jiang Wenqing gave Xiao Pang two yuan of rit money as change.
Right... this money was actually the rit money they sold at Wanglong Mountain before, otherwise Chen Mo wouldn’t have so much change.
Xiao Pang held that small bowl with his eyes glowing, "My goodness, for eight yuan I got three milk balls, that’s generous of you, Jiang Wenqing!"
The pink milk ball got popped into Xiao Pang’s mouth in one go, the strawberry flavor was extrely rich, and a chill spread from his mouth to his entire body, making Xiao Pang shiver where he stood, "It’s even better than Haagen-Dazs!"
Just now, Wu Jun was planning to treat his group mbers to ice cream, but now watching Jiang Wenqing surrounded by so many people, even those classmates who used to butter him up were now currying favor with Jiang Wenqing.
Wu Jun was instantly furious.
He couldn’t control others, but Wu Jun grabbed the two mbers who had joined his group earlier, "You two, co with . When we get to the countryside, I’ll treat you to ice cream from the supermarket."
"Who wants supermarket ice cream from the countryside! I want that honeydew lon sorbet, didn’t you see, they even have sorbet!"
"Exactly, hey Jiang Wenqing, get a blueberry popsicle!"
Wu Jun’s cheeks started to twitch with anger, clenching his fists as he stepped out of the crowd, staring fiercely at the ice cream cart for a long ti, then howled.
"Dad!!!"
...
Chen Mo really didn’t expect it, that the transford ice cream cart would be so popular at Experintal Primary School!
In just about half an hour, Jiang Wenqing sold four to five hundred yuan.
Xiao Jiao held a bunch of cash, his face flushed with excitent, and that’s not all; knowing this ice cream cart belonged to Jiang Wenqing, many classmates began having other thoughts.
"Jiang Wenqing, can I be in your group? When school starts after sumr, you can copy my howork."
Xiao Jiao coldly replied, "I can do my own howork."
"Jiang Wenqing, let’s be in the sa group! My dad’s taking abroad over the sumr, I’ll have him buy you a LEGO set."
Xiao Jiao calmly replied, "My dad is also abroad."
"Jiang Wenqing~ I’ll take your duty next sester!"
Xiao Jiao was montarily stunned, but still shook his head and said, "It’s my responsibility to do my duty."
At this mont, Li Jingyi, licking her ice cream stick, said, "Deskmate, can I be in your group?"
Jiang Wenqing’s face turned crimson again, and he didn’t know why, but every ti Li Jingyi talked to him, he felt his heart race.
Could this be the love that his mom said was in those TV dramas?
"But..." Jiang Wenqing turned to look at Chen Mo, "Is that okay, Uncle Xiao Chen?"
Chen Mo was just staring blankly at Jingyi’s Mother, "Sure, it must be okay!"
Jingyi’s mother’s dress was very cleverly designed. The blue vest on her upper body seed deliberate, with edges just along the body’s curves, while the skirt’s hem danced in the wind, occasionally revealing her smooth legs in nylon stockings.
The first mber of Xiao Jiao’s group has appeared!
Wu Jun watched as Li Jingyi got on the ice cream truck, almost grinding his teeth to pieces!
Wu Xiaofeng watched as Jingyi’s Mother got on the ice cream truck, his fists almost crushing.
Smack!
A slap landed directly on the back of Wu Jun’s head, "You useless thing!"
Jiang Wenqing, surrounded by so many classmates, raised his hand wanting to be in his group, having been ignored for a whole sester, suddenly being popular felt a little unfamiliar. Flustered, he pulled at Chen Mo, "Uncle Xiao Chen, quickly help see who to team up with!"
Chen Mo looked serious, completely earnest, eyebrows slightly furrowed, feeling a weighty sense of responsibility. He pointed at a woman by the school entrance, wearing jeans and a loose white chiffon blouse, with black-rimd glasses, and said, "Team up with her too."
The woman not only had a mature charm but also a scholarly aura. Teaming up with such a parent would surely make the upcoming ti enjoyable.
Jiang Wenqing held his forehead, "That’s our language teacher..."
"Then it’s her, her, her; five people should be enough, right?"
"Enough, enough." Jiang Wenqing noticed that all the classmates Chen Mo picked were girls, tead with female parents, which felt oddly peculiar.
Seeing themselves not picked by Chen Mo, many elentary students hung their heads in disappointnt, so even blaming their parents.
"I’m so angry, why didn’t you dress prettier today? See! I wasn’t picked by Jiang Wenqing!"
"Mom, I told you we’re going out today, couldn’t you dress up a bit? Sigh!"
"Mom, give five yuan; when we get to the countryside, I’ll need to buy an ice cream."
The parents were all a bit dumbfounded, thinking the school just notified them about a sumr camp and cooking, no one said it was a beauty contest... Had they known, they’d have woken up earlier to spruce up a bit.
Now all the attention was stolen by Jingyi’s Mother. It’s so frustrating!
The groups were almost entirely ford.
The parents and students grouped up, each finding their group leader’s car and boarded the vehicles.
The head teacher gave the order, and everyone set off together for the sumr camp activity site!
Chen Mo was in charge of driving, Jingyi’s Mother sat in the passenger seat, and three other moms were squeezed onto the small bed behind the driver’s seat.
For a mont, the cockpit was filled with a sweet fragrance.
Xiao Juzi lay blissfully on one of the moms’ laps, letting others poke and prod, showing no backbone at all.
The group of elentary students, led by Jiang Wenqing, all squeezed into the ice cream truck.
"Are we sure this is okay?" Jingyi’s Mother was a bit worried.
Not worried about safety though, in small cities, minivans carrying freight and electric scooters carrying people were common.
The main concern was being stopped by traffic police.
Chen Mo waved his hand, "Don’t worry, absolutely no problem! Plus, I’m driving very slowly, it’s definitely safe."
Indeed, Chen Mo was driving exceptionally slowly today.
They were taking their ti for two hours without reaching the destination, and Jingyi’s Mother exclaid looking at her phone.
"Oh no, other parents have already started cooking, Father Wu Jun’s skewers are nearly ready to eat, won’t we be too late when we get there?"
The parents in the back heard this and got a bit anxious too, pulling out their phones to check.
Chen Mo, however, just smiled without speaking.
What’s the use of being early?
Good cooking is the real deal, right?
In the back, inside the ice cream truck.
Jiang Wenqing confidently pulled out the five cone wrappers again, sitting by the ice cream machine.
"Alright then, what flavors do you want?"
Li Jingyi burped, her eyes of happiness nearly squinting shut.
"Is this what they call ice cream freedom on Douyin! I want a matcha flavor!"
Jiang Wenqing pressed the machine, the cone spun several tis, and the ice cream looked about to collapse before he stopped.
The five kids each held an ice cream, watching the scenery outside the window.
They’ve never felt their elentary school life could be so blissful!
