58. Immortal flower

I can't define exactly what romance is, and most of everyone has a different definition. Some people think that giving 999 roses is romantic, some people think that giving a brand-name bag is romantic, some people walk hand in hand by the sea is romantic, and some people think that it is romantic to say 'I love you' in their ears......

After all, it was a feeling, at a certain moment and a certain point, so happened to provoke the emotion in the heart. Just like me now, and this snow in front of me.

The snow in Beijing was not big, it fell sparsely and slowly, I held my mobile phone and quietly admired the snow for a while, Lin Jiangnan did not speak, as if he was walking, and there was a slight sound of breathing.

"Are you home?" I asked him.

"It's coming soon."

"So, see you tomorrow?"

"Well, I'll see you tomorrow." His voice was gentle, as if he could feel his smile.

The scribbling under the snow soon stopped, and then the northwest wind blew, and I listened to the sound of the wind calling outside the window and felt that my bed was very comfortable, so I slept very sweetly this night.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Lin Jiangnan's message came, asking me if I was up. Young people are really full of spirits. I stretched out under the covers and climbed out of bed. Pulling open the curtains and looking out, the north wind blew the sky blue overnight, and as far as the eye could see, there was no trace of last night's snow.

I know Lin Jiangnan's consistent temperament, so I speed up to wash and change clothes, and sure enough, he came after I cleaned up, and he was carrying two sets of pancakes and fruits.

"Is it cold or not?" I asked him.

"It's cold!" He sniffed and handed me the pancakes, his hands carrying the plastic bag were frozen red, but the pancakes were still hot.

"I was going to take you out, but it's a bit too cold this day, forget it." He said.

I made him a cup of coffee and warmed his hands, "Take me out?" Where to? ”

"Dating."

"Dating?" I laughed and said, "Who said I was going on a date with you?" ”

He seemed to be used to it, that is, there was no disappointment or discouragement, "No one said, I planned it myself." He dragged his backpack and took out a wrapped box from it, "Well, a gift for you." ”

I didn't understand what I was thinking, but I took it anyway, "What is it?" What are you giving me a gift for? ”

He was stunned, "Don't you know that today is Sunny Day?" ”

"Is it Sunny Man's Day today?!" I took out my phone and took a look, and it was! When I arrived at the New Year, I automatically switched to the year of the lunar calendar, and I only remembered the first day, and I didn't pay attention to the number at all.

No wonder, no wonder he sounded so happy when I asked him to come over today.

"Sunny Day gifts...... I picked up the box and looked at it, thinking to myself whether I should accept this gift or not? Lin Jiangnan was afraid that he had fully understood me, and he saw through the hypocrisy in my heart at a glance, and said: "Although it is given on the Sunny Day, you can also use it as a Spring Festival gift, or you can take it as a thank you gift for helping me take care of the pigs, which is always okay." ”

I'm embarrassed to make it upside down.

He put the coffee cup on the coffee table, "Besides, the gift of Qingren's Day, receiving it doesn't mean that it is a Qingren." Don't have such a big burden of thought, this friend. ”

I laughed and said very palely: "Mainly...... I didn't prepare anything for you, and it is said that it is not appropriate for me to receive a gift unilaterally. ”

"Really?" His eyes lit up, "Then you can give me whatever you want." ”

"Don't, don't." I waved my hand repeatedly, "Don't make me so unkind." In this way, wait for Women's Day, and I'll give you a return gift on March 8th. ”

"I'm a man."

"I know you're a man. You see, you said that receiving a gift for Women's Day does not mean that you are a person, and in the same way, receiving a gift for Women's Day does not mean that you are a woman, right? ”

He snorted and scratched his head with a smile, "If your logical thinking can be used in mathematics, you won't start failing elementary school." ”

"I didn't fail, I just didn't get a good grade." I looked at the box over and over again. The outer packaging of the box is dark purple cloth paper, which is not tied with ribbons, but a small piece of thin golden ribbon pressed with fire paint at the seal, which looks simple and delicate, and the taste is not bad.

"Let's tear it down."

I shook the box slightly, "What's that?" ”

"Let's take it apart and take a look." There was a coquettish tone in his tone, and I couldn't help but laugh, "Why don't we eat the pancakes first." ”

"You can tear it down." He was a little anxious, but seemed to be looking forward to opening this gift more than me, "Or I'll help you open it." ”

"Okay, okay, I'll tear it down, I'll tear it down." I sat down next to him, "I will design a wrapping paper when I go back, the shading is a red brick wall, and the word 'demolition' is written on it, and then draw a circle on the outside of the demolition word, like the kind painted on the wall in the demolition area, which makes people want to demolish it when they see it, what do you think?" ”

"It's good, but it doesn't feel romantic."

"What if it's a demolition money?" I carefully ripped off the strip and laughed, "The person who receives the gift has to cry with emotion." ”

He smiled beside him, smiling and sighing slightly, "To be honest, the picture I imagined when opening the gift is not what it is now. ”

"What was that like?"

He thought for a while, "I can't say it well, but it's not like talking about cross talk anyway." ”

The wrapper was removed, revealing the box inside, and as soon as the lid was opened, the whole box bloomed like a flower. I blinked, instantly committed an occupational disease, and put the box back together and then released it again, "Hey, this packaging is good!" ”

"Can we...... See the point? ”

I smiled embarrassedly, and finally got the gift out of the box.

It was a semi-capsule-shaped ornament with a glass cover and a log bottom supported by a red rose standing on a mossy background. Beneath the roses was a small statue of a little yellow-haired boy with a scarf, and a cute little fox standing next to him.

"Fake flowers?"

"It's called the Eternal Flower!" Lin Jiangnan corrected me, a little helpless, "This is a real flower." ”

"Eternal flowers." I held this ornament up carefully. I know that it is indeed made of real flowers, once a customer wanted to order a batch of gifts, and I provided them with a plan with eternal flowers, and then gave up because the cost was too high. At that time, I also discussed with Lin Xu, is this immortal flower immortal, or is it dead?

Lin Xu laughed at me at that time: "Some flowers are dead when they die, and some flowers are dead, but they are still alive." Isn't that good? What are you doing with such pessimism? ”

"You said you liked flowers, but they wilted too quickly, so I'll give you an eternal flower." Lin Jiangnan explained to me the reason why he gave me this gift, a bit like I explained the design idea to Party A. I smiled slightly, but my eyes were fixed on the little yellow-haired boy and the fox.

I guess this is the reason why Lin Jiangnan gave me this gift.

But he didn't say it.

Should I know, or should I not?

Just as I was thinking about it, suddenly my phone called. I put the ornament back on the coffee table and picked up my phone, and the caller's name was displayed on the screen: Shao Jie.

Lin Jiangnan also saw it. The two of us looked at each other, and countless thoughts seemed to be exchanged between the lightning and the fire.

"Hello?" I connected the phone, and Shao Jie's voice on the other side of the phone was a little eager, "Su Mi, is Xiao Jing going to sell the house?" What's going on? ”

"Sell the house?" I was surprised, "I don't know!" What did she tell you? ”

"No, it's the sales of the real estate she bought, saying that Xu Yijing called him two days ago to sell the house, and asked them if there were any customers who wanted to buy a house over there, and said that it was an urgent sale. Today, there is a buyer who is interested, and she can't be contacted by sales, and my contact information was also left to sales when I bought the house, so people called me. Shao Jie concisely told me the ins and outs of the matter, and then asked me, "What's going on?" Did Xiao Jing encounter any difficulties? ”

Now I'm in a difficult situation.

First of all, I didn't know that Xu Yijing had plans to sell the house, and even if I knew, I didn't know whether to tell Shao Jie about Xu Yijing's family. Logically speaking, they are now two people who have nothing to do with each other.

"I didn't know she was going to sell her house." I had to avoid the important first, "You wait a minute, I'll contact her and ask." ”

"I've just called her several times, all of them are turned off, is she okay?"

"Turn it off, that'...... I guess it's on a plane. I looked at Lin Jiangnan pleadingly. Lin Jiangnan actually couldn't hear what Shao Jie said at all, and of course he couldn't give me an idea, so he could only shrug his shoulders inexplicably.

"She's on the plane back to Beijing?"

"Ah, yes." The more I speak, the more vague it becomes.

"Are you home?" Shao Jie asked me, and after asking, he asked himself: "It doesn't matter, I'll go over now, anyway, she can only go back to you when she goes back to Beijing." With that, he hung up the phone.

I held my phone in a daze for two seconds, Lin Jiangnan asked me what was wrong, and I relayed what Shao Jie told me to Lin Jiangnan. After listening to this, Lin Jiangnan said: "It's not an accident, after all, with such a big hole, Sister Xu has no other way." ”

I tried to call Xu Yijing, and sure enough, the phone was turned off.

Lin Jiangnan is right, Xu Yijing's sale of the house to repay the debt is not much unexpected in itself, but I know very well what that suite means to Xu Yijing, and I also know how much Xu Yijing expects from that suite and the life that that suite brings. Now that she wants to sell her house, even I can't accept it psychologically, let alone herself.

It's really a blessing or a curse. The more I thought about it, the more distressed I became.

Half an hour later, Shao Jie knocked on the door, and hurriedly walked in with a cold air and an anxious face. At the same time, I also contacted Xu Yijing.

"You've landed in Beijing?" I asked her.

"yes, you're quite accurate, just stopped."

"You're going to sell your house?"

Xu Yijing was silent for a moment, "How do you know?" I don't remember telling you. ”

"Shao Jie told me." I glanced at Shao Jie, "He's waiting for you at home now." ”
