Echoes of Summer

Chapter 2

Xuncheng High School will be renovated this summer, and the school library sold a batch of second-hand books. Yuan Xia bought a bunch of them to put on the new bookshelves in the store.

Today, she is going to move the books.

The school was right next to the book cafe, so she asked Qiao Siyuan to stay and watch the store. She pulled the cart and greeted the security guard at the entrance before entering.

Senior one and senior two haven't started school yet, and now only senior three in the whole school started summer camp training half a month earlier.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the sound of reading aloud is accompanied by the breeze, passing through the No. 3 teaching building in the library.

The person in charge is already waiting at the entrance of the hall.

Yuan Xia quickened her pace.

The trolley made a lot of noise on the cement road, which startled the koi in the lake to swim away in a panic.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." Yuan Xia pulled the cart, panting slightly.

The uncle administrator smiled and said it was all right.

"If it weren't for you, these old books would have to be sold as scraps, which is a pity."

Yuan Xia straightened her bangs and helped him move the books into the cart, "That's right, people nowadays are not very fond of paper books, and I would say that old books have texture..."

Although the temperature in the morning was not very high, after a lot of tossing, Yuan Xia still sweated a lot.

After moving the last stack of books, Yuan Xia took out a wet towel from her bag and wiped her face.

"Okay Xiao Yuan, all the books you need are here. Don't you really need me to help you pull them over? This cart doesn't look light."

"No need." Yuan Xia quickly waved after paying, "It's not that far, I can manage it myself."

The uncle administrator wiped his sweat, "Okay then, you should pay attention to yourself."

"Okay."

After class, the bell rang, and the students rushed outside. The cool, peaceful campus suddenly became scorching and dry, as the summer heat filled the air.

Beside the mirror lake, a girl with fluttering hair is pulling a small cart full of books and walking slowly. Her cold white skin glows white under the sun, and she looks like a fairy from afar.

Jiang Xingzhou saw Yuan Xia across a wooden bridge.

Yuan Xia was hot, and she strenuously walked around the center of the lake with a black umbrella. When she reached the bridge, she probably felt that her long hair was too much of a hindrance, so she stopped, tilted her neck to one side and clamped the handle of the umbrella, stretched out her hand and randomly circled it twice behind her head, and tied it into a low ponytail.

With less burden on the back of her neck, she showed a brisk smile on her face, and continued to pull the car across the bridge with her backhand.

"It's you!"

His voice couldn't hide his surprise.

Yuan Xia walked halfway and saw a familiar face, her almond eyes stared round.

Jiang Xingzhou was dressed in simple casual clothes. Seeing her stop, he walked over quickly and said, "What a coincidence."

Yuan Xia was still immersed in the joy of encountering her crush the next day. She squinted her eyes slightly and asked, "Why are you here?"
