When Jiang Die returned to the shop, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.

Her small shop is called Butterfly Valley, and when she graduated from college, Jiang Luo, who was a lawyer, took out all his savings to run it for her. The shop is a convex shop of about 500 square meters, and the exterior decoration is all transparent glass, so people can see the scene inside at a glance when you stand on the street. The slightly smaller area in the middle is filled with all kinds of flowers, and the cash register is behind the innermost high platform facing the gate, surrounded by a few bouquets of lilies.

On the right, three flights of stairs up, slightly higher than the florist, are neatly arranged with comfortable sofas and tables, in which several tables of guests are talking, some are busy tapping on the computer, some are flipping through the books in their hands, and some are just quietly drinking coffee, as if seeking a moment of peace.

The area on the left is much larger than the other two places, and it is also a three-story staircase up the stairs, filled with layers of bookshelves, and there are not many chairs and sofas inside, and you can see many people sitting on the ground and focusing through the windows.

As soon as Jiang Die pushed open the door, he saw his brother Jiang Luo and his college classmate Qi Tian, the café area on the right was close to the steps, and the two of them sat in an L-shape, talking happily with one person and one coffee.

In the past three years, Qi Tian has been a little diligent, and even often comes over when the door is about to close, and then insists on sending Jiang Die home. When Jiang Die was struggling about how to get rid of Qi Tian, Jiang Luo also got involved, often asking Qi Tian to eat at home on weekends, and then tricking Jiang Die home for various reasons.

That was the first time Jiang Die felt that it was a wise decision to move out of the house and live in a rented house by herself.

As the wind chimes open the door, the clerk Xiaotong shouts, "Sister Fluttershy, you're back!" ”

Jiang Die didn't have time to dodge, Jiang Luo and Qi Tian's eyes had already looked at each other, Jiang Die had no choice, and walked over hard.

"Where have you been for most of the day?" It was Jiang Luo who asked.

"Oh, I made an appointment with a friend. Brother, didn't you have a court session today? Jiang Die said a reason, and while taking off his coat and putting it on the chair opposite Jiang Luo, he changed the topic and asked.

Jiang Luo took a sip of coffee, put it back again, and replied, "Today's trial ended early, so I came to sit with you." Qi Tian has been waiting for you for a long time, you guys talk, I'll go find a few books. ”

After Jiang Luo finished speaking, he got up and left, and didn't forget to give Qi Tian a look. How could Jiang Die not be able to see the thoughts of her brother from home, but she had said everything that should be said, but she still couldn't dispel Qi Tian's insistence, she was a little helpless, and she was a little unbearable.

After a moment of silence, Qi Tian was the first to break the silence: "The small shop seems to be getting more and more popular, do you want to recruit another person?" Seeing that you are a little tired, it will not be so hard to have one more person to help you. ”

"Huh?" Jiang Die raised his eyes to look at Qi Tian, looked around again, and then smiled and continued to answer: "There are several universities nearby, and they are about to take exams, so naturally there are more students." But fortunately, opening a store like this has always been my dream, and I don't feel hard to enjoy it. ”

Qi Tian nodded and said, "Among so many students in our class, only you have the most relaxed and comfortable life, you always have very simple dreams, and you are always very content." It's like a college employment class, the teacher asks everyone what their dreams are, and many people reply that they want to earn a lot of money, live in a big house, and drive a good car, but only you say that you want you and your brother to be happy, and now I don't know how many people envy you. ”

"What do I have to envy?" Jiang Die was a little embarrassed, she turned her head to look at Jiang Luo, who was seriously looking for a book on the other side, and continued to answer: "Without my brother's support, how can my dream be so easy to realize, in the end, I am just hiding under my brother's wing to live a stable life, and I don't have any lofty ambitions." If you don't have big ambitions, it's me. ”

"No matter how ambitious the ambition is, what you pursue is just a stable home, that is happiness that can't be bought, just like you..." he glanced at Jiang Die meaningfully, and wanted to say something, but he didn't say it after all.

Jiang Die saw that Qi Tian wanted to speak and stopped, that kind of look made her a little flustered, she was silent for a while, and finally mustered up a lot of courage to say: "You are a good man, and you will definitely meet your happiness in the future." ”

The implication: I am not your happiness.

Qi Tian smiled bitterly, as if he was comforting Jiang Die's helplessness, and seemed to be talking to himself: "You are right, how can a man like me not be happy." ”

Then without waiting for Jiang Die to react, he stood up and said while putting on his coat: "I also made an appointment, go first." I'll talk to your brother for a while, and we'll meet again another day. ”

"Okay, stay safe on the road."

As soon as Jiang Die's words were finished, he saw that Qi Tian had already descended the steps and strode towards the door. Jiang Die straightened her body, looking at the figure in a daze, no one knew what she was thinking.

When Jiang Luo came back with a few books, he saw that there was no one in the seat, he glanced around, and his eyes fell on the innermost table, where the guests had just left, and Jiang Die was cleaning up the remaining coffee cups and stains on the table.

After a while, hearing the movement on the sofa opposite, he raised his head and saw Jiang Die looking at him with a serious face.

Jiang Luo closed the book in his hand and asked with interest, "Something?" ”

"Brother, it's impossible for me to be with Qi Tian, don't mess around with mandarin ducks in the future, okay?" Jiang Die finally decided to talk to her brother solemnly.

"Then who are you likely to talk to? Tang Qian? Don't even think about it. Jiang Luo squinted at Jiang Die, and his words conveyed an undeniable affirmation.

"Brother, the matter back then has not been investigated clearly, Tang Qian and Sister Xiaoxi both have drugs in their bodies, they must have done nothing, and there are other people who harm Sister Xiaoxi. The surveillance of the community was broken in advance, which was all premeditated. Even the police said that it was not Tang Qian who violated Sister Xiaoxi, and you are also a lawyer, why don't you believe the police investigation? Jiang Die couldn't help but argue.

"I only believe what I see." At the mention of Cheng Xiaoxi, Jiang Luo's face immediately darkened: "Everyone saw him lying on Xiaoxi's bed, who else could it be?" Why did the DNA test report and all the evidence disappear? Except for the Tang family, who can have such a big force to infiltrate the public security bureau and the hospital to steal? ”

Why? This is also a problem that she has not figured out in the past few years, the report that can prove Tang Qian's innocence was stolen on the night it was sent to the Public Security Bureau, along with all the evidence extracted from the hospital, almost everyone thought that it was the interference of the Tang family's forces. Since Cheng Xiaoxi committed suicide because of this incident, Jiang Luo has been even more unable to forgive Tang Qian.

Jiang Die couldn't answer Jiang Luo's question, but her face was not much better, she didn't look at Jiang Luo with her mouth shut, her cold face and slightly rapid gasping expressed her dissatisfaction at the moment.

Jiang Luo looked at his sister and waved his hand for a long time: "Forget it, I won't talk about this today." On Saturday, the second elder of the Cheng family came to the house for dinner, and you will also come back to meet. ”

"Brother, do you really want to marry Cheng Xiaonuan?" Just like Jiang Luo cares about Jiang Die, Jiang Die also cares about Jiang Luo.

"I owe her a responsibility." After dropping these six words, Jiang Luo simply cleaned up and left.
