Let's take you somewhere!

Leaving the school, saying goodbye to everyone. Jun Shi said, "Do you eat ice cream?"

I looked at him with cold expression and said, "Crazy or not? Who doesn't eat that?"

Jun Shi smiled and grabbed my hand. As soon as I looked at him in surprisingly, he started running.

"Then let's take you somewhere!"

Mr. Xia is waiting for his daughter. Seeing the face of his wife Xu Jia Wei, he understands the danger of his daughter Ran Xia today!

"Lia's Ice Cream Shop?"

Jun Shi let go of my hand and said, "Hmm. Let's let you taste some of the ice cream here today."

I took a closer look at the shop. A small shop. But very neat and tidy. Chairs and tables are placed outside the shop for customers. Umbrellas are provided at every table for the convenience of customers. Looks a lot like a cafe, but an ice cream shop. The surrounding scenery is so beautiful! If I had brought the mobile phone from home, I would have been busy taking pictures now!

Jun Shi pulled out a chair from the table and sat me down and said, "I like the 'Chocolate Chip Ice Cream' here best! I don't know what your test is like, but you can try it."

I nodded my head yes.

Jun Shi entered the shop and started talking to a woman. It looks like this lady is the owner of this ice cream shop. The girl is thin, her hair is in a bun. Wearing an apron. She looks young and beautiful! But I don't know how old she is.

The girl smiled and talked to Jun Shi and looked at me after a while. I was a bit taken aback. After a while, Jun Shi sat on the chair in front of me and said, "I've ordered it. It'll be here in 5 minutes."

I shook my head. After a while, I asked, "Well, Jun Shi, is this girl the owner of this shop? She actually looks very young."

Jun Shi sighed slightly and said, "This girl's name is Lia. Currently she is 20 years old. Normally at this age, she should be studying, but fate has put her in this place today.

She has no parents. They both died in an accident in her childhood. So since childhood she has been close to her grandmother; her only family. Her grandmother used to run this ice cream shop. You will be surprised that she made such good ice cream even in her old age! But there is no one to run the shop due to grandmother's sudden illness for a long time. So Lia is in charge of the shop now besides studying."

I was speechless after hearing these. I looked at the girl. She is working in the kitchen with a smiled face. I started to thinking, how can a girl in this situation could be smile? Actually she is pretending I know. Maybe she cries in her alone time, at night?

While thinking about this, Lia appeared. Gave us 2 glasses of ice cream. She smiled sweetly and said to me, "Your name is Ran Xia, right?"

I smiled and said, "Yes, sister Lia."

She looked at me in surprise and said, "You also know my name? Jun Shi said it surely?"

I smiled and nodded.

She said, "Jun Shi told me about you before. He said that you are very brave and know boxing very well?"

I looked at Jun Shi now. Jun Shi said with a smile, "Praise your Master wherever you go!"

I could not stop laughing now!

"So Ran Xia, this is your first time in this shop, right? Try this Chocolate Chip Ice Cream. It's made of a creamy vanilla base and chocolate chunks. Give me 5 star rating after you go home, okay?"

She smiled and blinked at me.

I said with a smile, "Of course, sister Lia! No problem"

Sister Lia smiled at me and go back to the shop asking us to talk.

I said to Jun Shi while eating ice cream, "Well Jun Shi, how did you meet sister Lia?"

Jun Shi stopped eating the ice cream and looked at me.

"Actually not with sister Lia, I first met her grandmother."

[Flashback]

2 years ago...

Jun Shi is looking for something. He walks all the way around looking at the shops and the signboards. Suddenly his eyes caught on a shop. "Lia's Ice Cream Shop." Jun Shi has been looking for a good ice cream shop for so long. His mother sent him books and painting materials from abroad. But Jun Shi insisted to his mother that this time he will test different types of ice cream. Jun Shi loves to eat ice cream.

Entering "Lia's Ice Cream Shop", Jun Shi saw an old lady. The old lady was sitting on a chair. Customers were ordering ice cream from her. The old lady went to the kitchen, took some necessary items for making ice cream, and started making ice cream again sitting on the chair. She is so old. But with her hands, the work is still masterful! It is surprising to Jun Shi. Jun Shi quickly went and stood in front of the large table where the old lady was making ice cream.

The old lady looked at Jun Shi and smiled sweetly, "What's up dear? Want some ice cream?"

Jun Shi also smiled and said, "Yes! What ice cream is available here?"

"You tell me what you'll eat. But according to me, the 'Chocolate Chip Ice Cream' from my store is the most fun! You can try it."

Jun Shi nodded his head and expressed a meaningful expression.

...

Jun Shi said so far and looked at me. After a while, he started to say again, "From then on, I came to this shop almost every day because of the desire of ice cream. They make so much fun ice cream here! Sister Lia's grandmother gradually became my grandmother. Even though I didn't eat ice cream, I came here every day to see her. I used to help her and talk with her. She always told me stories about her granddaughter Lia and said Lia is a very good girl!"

I didn't even notice when I finished eating my ice cream while listening to the story from Jun Shi. Jun Shi suddenly said, "Eat more? You can try another flavor if you want."

I nodded in agreement.

Jun Shi smiled and motioned to Sister Lia to give another flavor of ice cream.

Then Jun Shi started talking again, "Grandma once told me that if I was older than Sister Lia, she would have married sister Lia to me!"

As soon as he said this, I started laughing out loud. Jun Shi also started laughing with me. Hearing our laughter, Sister Lia appeared with a glass of another flavor of ice cream in her hand and said, "What's going on? Why are you laughing so much?"

I said to sister Lia with a smile, "I heard, did grandma want you to marry Jun Shi?"

Sister Lia started laughing now. Said, "Don't say anything else! Grandma used to tell me about Jun Shi every day. She said it would be great if Jun Shi were older than me or if I was younger than Jun Shi! She loves Jun Shi so much! This monkey!"

Saying these words, Sister Lia gave a blow to Jun Shi's head.

"Anyway, you eat the ice cream. It's Salted Caramel Ice Cream. This flavor is great too, I can assure you!

I smiled and shook my head. Sister Lia left. I said to Jun Shi, "Well Jun Shi, what school did you go to 2 years ago? I mean what school were you in before our school?"

Suddenly Jun Shi choked.
