The most painful tears flowed from the grave, for the words that had not yet been spoken and the things that had not yet been done.
When she left the cellar, his tutor did not give his homework as usual, and she said goodbye to him with a smile on her lips. On the way back to the common room, she met Harry Potter standing against the wall, he was standing in the shadows, he couldn't see his expression clearly, she was about to ask him what was wrong, but she saw Malfoy appear at the other end of the hallway, he walked to her side with dangling steps, like a playboy who was a fool, he raised his chin defiantly towards Harry Potter, and sneered, "Scarhead Potter, are you standing here trying to attack my dance partner?" She frowned, thinking that Malfoy's words were strange, and he emphasized his dance partner in particular, as if he had other intentions, but before she could think about it, Harry Potter on the other side was like a switch turned on, and yelled at her angrily, "So you are the same, an evil Slytherin, you don't deserve love, you never deserve!" She looked at his back, blinked inexplicably, and sneered, "I'm just a Slytherin, hehe, what's wrong with the young people now, Malfoy?" He looked at Malfoy, the platinum boy who had just been in a state of flux, standing there tall at this time, the look in the shadows flickering and fading, and he said in a low voice, "Maybe he's right, we don't deserve love." ”
Red walked into the FBI headquarters building step by step with his back to Liu Fanxu, he could feel her gaze falling on his back, but he didn't dare to look back. He walked all the way back to BAU with his head down, and it wasn't until he sat back at his desk that he remembered the handbag he was carrying. He stared at the bag on his lap in frustration, thinking sullenly that before he could damn say that word, it was clear that he had messed up.
He took out the things that Liu Fanxu had prepared for him from the bag one by one, a large coffee cup, a cervical U-shaped pillow, a lumbar backrest, a cushion, a mini chess game, a large jar of lactose, and a large box of cookies. He stared at these things in a daze, until someone tapped him on the shoulder, Morgan sat sideways on his desk, reached out and picked up a cookie and put it in his mouth and asked, "Hey, I called you several times, what's wrong with you?" Morgan pointed to the things and grinned, "That girl made it for you?" Really thoughtful. ”
"I messed up" Red hung his head, his shoulders drooping, "I told Aga that we were family. Morgan coughed violently, and he glared at Red, "Are you kidding?" Do you mean to reject her? Red nodded, then shook his head again, "I just want to know how Aga reacts, well, I shouldn't have tried her wisely." Morgan propped up the table with one hand and his knee in the other, looked at the top of Red's hair and asked, "And what did you try?" "I don't know" Red looked up at Morgan, his brow furrowed and his lips pursed uneasily, "I'm not sure, she's hiding her affection." ”
"Well, it's not that bad, let's not talk about whether the love she is hiding is good or bad, at least it shows that she cares about you." Morgan said with a shrug. Red glared and puffed out his cheeks and retorted sadly, "I knew she cared about me before this, what's the point?" Morgan raised his hand and patted Rhett's shoulder and encouraged, "Cheer up, if she's unhappy, it means she loves you, if she's happy, she doesn't love you for the time being, but trusts you very much, that's a good thing, Rhett [Dr.], take action, she's yours." ”
"Action?" Red frowned and asked, "I should have listened to Hodge, just let it be, it's because I acted rashly that I messed things up, and if she thought I didn't love her because of me-" Morgan interrupted Rhett and grinned, "Look what I heard?" You love her. I thought you weren't aware of your feelings at all, but you know, but you sue her that you treat her as family, why don't you sue her directly? Go ask her out, buy her gifts, and imply that you are pursuing her. You can't leave your beloved girl alone, and you'll be devastated by her throwing herself into someone else's arms in the future. Cherish what you have, you know. ”
Red frowned, put down the bag in his hand, and said disapprehantly, "No, she said she wouldn't leave." Okay, I know I shouldn't take it for granted that she's going to stay with me all the time, but we spend every day together, eating together, watching movies together, reading books together, playing chess together, and she has almost no one else in her life except me, I know it's not right, but I enjoy her being so focused. Well, I know, she should have a life of her own, I'm not a pervert, Morgan, don't look at me with this kind of perverted look. Seeing Morgan's disapproving gaze, Red protested, Morgan shook his head and said, "That's in the past, Red, you are now a senior FBI agent, an elite profiler of BU, your life has changed, every day there will be heavy work that makes you work late, often fly over the United States to other states on business trips, you don't have time to accompany her, you can't go in and out with her like before, even during the holidays, on dates, you have to come back here with a phone call and a text message." Because those perverts never rest. So, are you really sure you can make her life just you? People like us can never maintain a relationship for a long time. ”
"What about Hodge?" Red frowned and retorted unconvinced, "I heard he's married, and he looks doing well." Morgan smiled helplessly. He patted Rhett on the shoulder, "Hi Rhett, there's no second Hodge, you're not him." I don't mean to say that you will definitely drift away from your Agha, but I want to remind you that you need to be proactive in order to grasp the beauty you cherish so that you will not regret it in the future. If you hesitate, you will lose a qiē. ”
“Sometimesthehardestpartisn-tlettinggo,butratherlearningtostartover.” Red lowered his eyes, his fingers unconsciously digging at the tabletop, whispering like a whisper. Morgan raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, "People always have to take the first step to go far." Red nodded, then looked at Morgan, "I'll try." Thank you, Morgan. Morgan spread his hands and replied with a smile, "You're welcome, hey, we're a team, helping each other, you know, it doesn't look like there will be any more cases kidnapping our break today, so, buy a bouquet of flowers after work, trust me, the girls love it." ”
"Unbelievable, I hope Aga doesn't think I'm crazy. You know, it's not my style, but, okay, I'll go buy it, a try, maybe it won't be bad. Red picked up the cookie and shoved it into Morgan's arms, "Aga asked me to share it with you." Morgan took it with a smile and threw a piece into his mouth, "It tastes good, it's really thoughtful, isn't it?" Hi, I hope you don't mess up so I can enjoy afternoon tea every day in the future, right? "What refreshments?" Hodge suddenly appeared, stood next to Morgan, he looked at Rhett and Morgan, who were startled by him, and then reached out and took out a cookie from the box and stuffed it into his mouth, "It tastes good, thank you." ”
Rhett held a bouquet of lilies, standing awkwardly at the door of the apartment, it was incredible, he really obeyed Morgan's advice, and he felt flustered when he thought of George's relieved and kind expression just after passing through the hall. Although the owner of the flower shop strongly recommended roses as a vulgar confession prop, he just felt that this bouquet of lilies was more suitable, and as soon as he stepped into the flower shop, he saw them as white as snow among the colorful flowers. After struggling in front of the door for a long time, he mustered up the courage to open the apartment door, and then saw Liu Fanxu sitting at the desk, with his back straight on the table, writing something.
"What are you doing?" Red frowned, walked behind Liu Fanxu with a bouquet of flowers and stood still, leaned over slightly and saw what she was writing, it was a treatise on alchemy, the flower characters in the circle were densely packed on the A4 paper, and there were seven such A4 papers scattered on the table, all of which were not sorted. She breathed a sigh of relief, put down the pen between her fingers, looked at the A4 paper that had been written, and put it aside, only then turned to look up at Rhett sideways, her face with the same smile as usual, but the smile froze on her lips when her eyes fell on the lily he was holding in his arms.
She lowered her eyes suddenly, then fluttered her eyelashes and lifted them slightly, with a misty light in her eyes, she moved her lips and said, "Spencer, is this the flower you bought?" Rhett subconsciously frowned, slowly squatted down, held her knees and leaned in front of her, he put the lilies on her knees, looked at the snow-white flowers, and asked softly, "Do you like it?" ”
Liu Fanxu held the bouquet with both hands, lowered her eyes, the expression on her face was hidden among the flowers, and her voice was nasal, "I like it." Rhett was on her lap like a child seeking forgiveness, his head tilted, his gaze exploring her expression, his eyes filled with longing and urgency. He could hear something strange in her voice, and he wasn't sure if she was crying, but he knew she liked it. He finally didn't mess up again, Morgan was right, girls like flowers, and he was very glad that he didn't follow the introduction of the flower shop owner to choose roses, but chose this bouquet of lilies by his own feelings, and he could see that they happened to be Liu Fanxu's favorite flowers.
