Chapter 22: Lunch
Before lunch, all the pots of cosmos I brought back yesterday were sold, but no one cared about the drunken butterfly flowers. For this situation, Luo Tong was not discouraged. Drunken butterfly flowers are relatively niche in the flower market, lovers love their shape, and haters complain about their taste.
The flowers of the drunken butterfly flower are particularly beautiful, like butterflies flying, but the flowers have a special smell. Therefore, most florists do not use drunken butterfly flowers as cut flowers, and only some gardeners sell them as potted plants.
Luo Tong also has many drunken butterfly flowers in the flower garden, she is purely curious about the drunken butterfly flowers, especially want to see what the scene is when the drunken butterfly flowers are in full bloom, and the total number of pots in the flower garden is less than ten pots. Yesterday, she brought back a total of five pots of drunken butterfly flowers, if she can't sell them by then, she will keep them for herself, rich, willful, Luo Tong thinks about it.
It was busy until eleven o'clock, and the store was finally clean, and Luo Tong rubbed his rumbling belly. She ate a bowl of noodles last night, got up late in the morning and didn't eat breakfast, and now she's starving to death. However, there was no food in the store, and Luo Tong was about to order takeout when Sheng Qiwu pushed the door and came in, carrying two insulated boxes in his hands.
Luo Tong was stunned for a moment, is the insulated box for her? Luo Tong thought uncertainly. Sheng Qiwu walked up to Luo Tong, saw Luo Tong looking at him blankly, and stretched out his hand to shake it in front of her eyes.
"Come back to your senses, are you hungry?" Sheng Qiwu asked with a smile.
"Why are you here?" Luo Tong did not answer his question, but asked another question. Originally, they weren't very close, how could Sheng Qiwu bring her food? Or did he pass by here?
"I saw that you were in a hurry to go out in the morning, I guess you didn't have breakfast, so you made some and brought it over, are you hungry?" Sheng Qiwu didn't answer the rhetorical question, put the thermos box on the coffee table, and lined them up in turn. The tempting fragrance permeated the small space, Luo Tong swallowed his saliva uncontrollably, and his stomach screamed accordingly.
Although the voice was small, the store was quiet, and Sheng Qiwu could hear it clearly. Luo Tong's face turned red, why did he embarrass in front of him every time?" "It seems that I'm really hungry, come over and eat." Sheng Qiwu greeted.
Sheng Qiwu saw that she was still standing behind the counter, so she simply walked over and pulled Luo Tong to sit down by the coffee table, and put the dismantled chopsticks in Luo Tong's hand.
It wasn't until the chopsticks were stuffed in his hand that Luo Tong came back to his senses, he really brought himself food? It's just so strange, how could he bring lunch to himself?
Luo Tong was stunned, there was an extra piece of Coke chicken wings in the bowl, and when he looked up, he saw Sheng Qiwu looking at her, his eyes were full of tenderness, and Luo Tong's face was red. "Aren't you hungry? Sheng Qiwu saw what Luo Tong wanted to say, so he simply cut off the conversation and waited for her to finish lunch.
Luo Tong stopped talking, and concentrated on eating, and after a meal, the dishes in her bowl never went down. Sheng Qiwu brought three dishes and one soup, cola chicken wings, dry pot cauliflower, cucumber, and the soup was mushroom and tofu soup.
Seeing Sheng Qiwu taking care of eating, Luo Tong uncomfortably gave him a chopstick cauliflower, and said dryly: "Don't patronize me, you can eat too." After saying that, he lowered his head and continued to eat, but his red ears exposed the shyness of his master.
Sheng Qiwu looked at Luo Tong's red ears, thinking about what it would feel like to touch them, and he was afraid of scaring Luo Tong, so he could only bow his head to eat.
Sheng Qiwu's craftsmanship is so good, Luo Tong is once again overwhelmed. Luo Xiaotang smelled the fragrance and wanted to eat it, Luo Tong found a small bowl and put the chicken wings through the water to relieve its hunger. A person and a cat collapsed on the chair when they were full, Sheng Qiwu looked at the master and pet, and got up to clean up his things slightly speechlessly.
Luo Tong stood up embarrassedly to help clean up the dishes and chopsticks, eating people with short mouths, it's better to be diligent. Sheng Qiwu didn't refuse, he liked this kind of two people staying together to do something, which made him feel like a family.
After cleaning up, Luo Tong brewed two cups of rose tea, roses are self-produced in the flower garden, selected rose buds that have not yet opened, dried and soaked in water to drink. This kind of small rose tea is particularly fragrant, and it is particularly fragrant every time you put three or four flowers in the cup.
Luo Tong especially likes to make tea in a glass, and you can see the roses floating and sinking in the hot water until they are fully blooming, which is beautiful and delicious. Luo Tong took a sip of flower tea and said, "Brother Sheng, did you come to bring me lunch today?"
She asked nervously, fearing that she would make a mistake and be sentimental. Sheng Qiwu put down the glass, leaned back on the back of the chair, and folded his hands in front of his lower abdomen. Looking at Luo Tong's worried face, he smiled: "Yes, I came here to bring you lunch." ”
Hearing Sheng Qiwu's answer, Luo Tong breathed a sigh of relief, a little happy in his heart, and a little vanity, such an excellent man sent lunch to himself. It's just..."Brother Sheng, don't you have to go to work?" Luo Tong wondered, today is not the weekend, he should have to go to work, why did he come over today?
"I've been working overtime before Tanabata, and I'm finally free, and I'm on vacation, and I'm expected to take about two weeks off. Sheng Qiwu folded his legs, he did not choose the previous white shirt and black trousers today, but wore a casual suit, sunny and handsome.
"That's... Then why did you bring me lunch?" Luo Tong hesitated for a moment, but still asked the deepest question in her heart. If it was just as a neighbor, the reason of good neighborliness obviously would not convince her. Luo Tong bit her lip a little nervously, hoping that it was the answer she heard, and hoping it wasn't.
She didn't know how she would react if it was the answer she wanted, and she didn't know how she would react if it wasn't the answer she was expecting.
Seeing Luo Tong biting her lip, looking a little nervous, Sheng Qiwu couldn't help but reach out and caress her face. "Don't bite your lip, don't you want to know? ”
The smooth skin of the hand fascinated Sheng Qiwu, for fear of leaving a bad impression on Luo Tong, Sheng Qiwu withdrew his hand, rubbed his fingertips, and was still reminiscing about the top enjoyment just now.
"I like you, I'm after you, silly girl. Sheng Qiwu sighed and said his purpose. "I've done it so obviously, you can't see it?" Sheng Qiwu supported Luo Tong's sluggishness, but he was also happy with Luo Tong's simplicity.
The conjecture in Luo Tong's heart was confirmed, which made her heart sour, "But, we've only met three times, and we've only known each other for a few days, why do you want to pursue me?"
