Chapter Twenty-Eight
"Bai Mingqiu, I'm here."
The girl walked into the store and whispered, looking around, the lines on her expressionless face softened slightly.
This quaint little shop was very much to her appetite, and the shop was filled with the fragrance of flowers, so he must have tended to the flowers and plants.
There was a faint noise in the room, and the girl thought that Bai Mingqiu should be there.
Sure enough, within a moment, the familiar face poked out of the door.
"It's Aoi."
He smiled slightly, said hello to Reimu and Marisa inside, and came out to talk to Aoi.
"Why do you have time to come to me today?"
Although Bai Mingqiu paid attention to this girl unilaterally, in fact, he and Aoi were nodding friends, and Bai Mingqiu had never seen her leave his flower shop, so he was a little curious.
Aoi stretched out her hand and pointed to the window next to the carpentry shop.
Bai Mingqiu looked in the direction that Aoi pointed out, there was a house that had been being built little by little recently, and now it seemed to have been built.
Aoi pointed to this store, could it be...?
"Aoi, you opened this shop?" Bai Mingqiu asked.
Aoi nodded, stretched out his finger and pointed to the [Bai's Carpentry] on the plaque on the door of the store, and said softly: "I feel that you are here, so I came." β
Bai Mingqiu said happily: "Then we will be neighbors in the future, in the next Bai Mingqiu, please take care of it in the future." β
The corners of Aoi's mouth are slightly upturned.
"That's right." Bai Mingqiu said, "Speaking of which, why did you change your store pΓΉ? Wasn't that shop good before? β
Aoi said word by word: "Earthquake, strong wind." β
Earthquakes, high winds.
Bai Mingqiu suddenly thought that in order to crack the big array, Suwako directly shook the reference point of Gensokyo, Yokai Mountain, and Kanako blew the divine wind unscrupulously after the end of the first qiΔ, causing all parts of Gensokyo to be affected by this abnormal celestial phenomenon, and there were various accidents, big or small
The reason why Aoi moved the flower shop, probably, no, must be because of this.
What restless guys.
Bai Mingqiu thought of Shouya Shrine, and couldn't help but think of what Kanako had said to him, and sighed in his heart.
"Don't be too sad." He said softly, "So- is the new store now cleaned up?" β
"Alright."
"The name hasn't changed, has it?"
"Well, Sunflower Shop."
Bai Mingqiu thought for a while and said, "Is that signboard broken?" If it's broken, I'll re-engrave it for you. β
"It's not broken." Aoi said softly, "It's just flowers, it's a pity." β
Aoi's expression was a little gloomy.
People who love flowers, when they encounter such a thing, they will inevitably be sad. Bai Mingqiu also felt this way when all the carvings in the studio were burned because of lightning strikes.
He wanted to comfort her.
"In the country across the sea, there is a poem that says that wildfires cannot be burned, and the spring breeze blows and grows. Although it was originally about grass, the principle of plants is generally the same, and they will definitely regenerate next spring. β
"Hmm."
Aoi hummed softly, recovering her usual indifferent expression, and I don't know if she feels better.
She looked around at the wood carvings and said, "You are very good at carpentry." β
"It's fine." Bai Mingqiu said with a smile, "I used to rely on this to eat, so I naturally had to be fine." β
Aoi stared at the wooden carving of a little girl chasing a dragonfly in the air for a moment, and it seemed that she liked these little things.
"If you like it, I'll go back and carve one for you."
"Yes, but, no."
Aoi's cold voice reached Bai Mingqiu's ears.
Bai Mingqiu was about to say something, when the curtain of the small door was brushed open.
"Marisa, what should you do if you break Bai Mingqiu's things with a light hand and foot?" Before he could get out of the door, he heard Reimu's voice.
Marisa and Reimu come out of the back room. Reimu said, "It's almost noon, so we'll go first." β
"Goodbye! The flowers are beautiful! Marisa gave Bai Mingqiu a sweet smile with white teeth.
"Okay, have fun." Bai Mingqiu waved his hand at Marisa and Reimu.
"Uh-huh!"
Reimu glanced at Aoi as she passed by, and then was dragged away by Marisa, and the laughter of the two could be heard outside the door from time to time.
"I'm sorry. The two of them often panicked like this. βγ Although Bai Mingqiu said the words of apology, he smiled even more.
Aoi shook her head and asked, "Who is Bai Mingqiu?" β
"Friends." Bai Mingqiu said without thinking.
Aoi nodded, no longer asking, and turned her eyes around.
Bai Mingqiu also stopped talking.
The early summer sun warmly crept up the window, like soft silk.
In the quaint little shop, young people and young girls are relatively silent, and the only thing in the house is the grumbling of the stove for boiling tea. Time passed little by little.
The water boiled, Bai Mingqiu lifted the pot, poured a cup of tea for Aoi and himself, and then set up a wooden chair opposite the small table.
"Aoi, come for a cup of tea." Bai Mingqiu called.
"Hmm."
Aoi Yiyan sat down, picked up the teacup, and her posture was elegant and square, and the sun reflected on the girl, dyeing her soft hair a little golden.
She gently blew away the heat on the tea surface, and her slightly pursed lips had a thin cherry color, which was very beautiful.
Bai Mingqiu liked that lip color very much.
He felt his heart beat half a beat faster than usual.
I don't know when, the beautiful girl named Aoi seems to have unconsciously left a shadow in Bai Mingqiu's heart.
At that time, I glanced at her, and it was not profound, but when I got to know her, I didn't care, but after a long time, I found that she was cold and shallow, so I stopped in my heart.
It's been a long time since there's been a throbbing like this, hasn't it?
Bai Mingqiu has very little emotional experience, although he has seven unrepeating lives, but the only one who really has a family is the first life, and the woman who has forgotten her name and appearance.
Because he was afraid of worrying about it at that time, he subconsciously avoided every relationship.
In this life, he still had such thoughts and wanted to be a lone person, but with the conclusion and reunion of bonds and karma, Bai Mingqiu's heart was slowly changed, until he told his sister Hong and Huiyin frankly that his seventh life was knotted, and there was no longer any obstacles.
At this time, if you can meet a good match, it seems that it is not bad for the rest of your life.
Love is really a beautiful feeling. Because even after a hundred and fifty years, he still vaguely remembers her laughter in the sun and the warm wine in winter.
The only thing he feared was that if he died in three years, he would fail her.
Still, isn't there hope?
Then, that she, could it be Aoi?
After thinking about it and turning it a thousand times, he smiled dumbly.
"Bai Mingqiu, what are you laughing at?" Aoi doesn't know why.
"There's an interesting thing." Bai Mingqiu said softly, "I want to drink." β
