454 Nine hundred and ninety-nine moon flowers
The library was packed, with the occasional sound of pages turning, the occasional cough or two, and a whispered answer to a cell phone. But overall, it's quiet.
Su Siqi sat in the corner, spread out a book on the table, just read a few pages, it was a very good novel, but she couldn't concentrate.
I always felt that as soon as I lowered my head, someone was looking at her. I looked up several times and looked around, but I couldn't find the person who was looking at her.
Are you hallucinating again? The sigh in the mall, the repairman with two long legs, all looked like him. So is she hallucinating again here?
The last time she asked Lin Haonan about those things, although he didn't deny it, but now she felt that maybe he was the one who paid in the Ziguang Pavilion, and the person who appeared in the library would not be him. She had a strong intuition that that person would not be Lin Haonan. Rather, he was watching her in the shadows today.
He was here today, and she could feel it, and as soon as she looked down, his eyes would be on her face.
Su Siqi glanced around, slowly lowered her head, and soon, she felt that burning gaze again, staring at her uneasy, it felt so real, was it still an illusion?
She lowered her head for a long time, pretending to be reading, silently waiting for the opportunity, waiting for that person to relax her vigilance, anyway, she had time.
The pages flipped slowly through her hands, her gaze not resting on any line, but her sense of his position.
Suddenly, she jerked her head up and looked ahead to the left, and she could feel the burning gaze coming from that direction.
But no matter how fast she was, there was still no gain, no one moved in that direction, and everyone sat at the table and read carefully. There were young men and women dressed as students, middle-aged intellectuals with glasses, and an old man with gray hair.
Without him, no matter how you look at it, there is still no him.
Su Siqi lowered her head in frustration and rubbed her temples for a while, this time she lowered her head, and the burning gaze did not chase after her again.
She let out a breath of relief, it seemed that she was still hallucinating, and she didn't know what was wrong with her during this time? Probably just like Xiao Xiao said, there is nothing impossible in this world, Lin Haonan can become Director Lin, why can't Shen Mengqing, who has been missing for more than three years, come back?
She wanted him back so much, missed his warm embrace so much, missed the faint lemon aroma on his body, and the faint smell of tobacco between her fingers. I miss his strong arms, his big dry and warm hands, and his fiery lips...... Everything about him, she misses.
Shen Mengqing sat there, quietly looking at the woman in the distance who was contemplating her cheeks.
He knew that he was getting more and more upright and risky, but he just wanted to get close to her, and he wanted to go crazy.
The closest time to her was in the mall, he leaned on her shoulder, and her breath reached the tip of his nose little by little, so familiar, so warm, that his heart throbbed suddenly, and the aftertremors brought by the throbbing could not be stopped for a long time.
The most sad thing is to see her sitting by the fountain pool, hanging her head in frustration and loneliness, looking at it, his eyes are moist, covering his face with his hands, and it takes a long time before his breathing slowly stabilizes.
The most dangerous time was at the door of her house, the light was not broken, just need to change the light bulb to shine, hearing her footsteps going upstairs, he deliberately rubbed, he wanted to listen to her voice, talk to him at close range. He must have been crazy to think like this, because she was so clever, and even though he covered his face tightly, he was afraid that she would see it. When she stood beside him, there were only the two of them in the narrow space, and the air seemed to be sticky, and he didn't dare to bow his head, only his heart was beating violently, and it almost jumped out of his throat.
She called him Master and asked him if the lamp could be repaired.
Obviously, his voice had changed, but he still didn't dare to speak, only nodded.
When she entered the door, he installed the lamp and hurried away, knowing that she would chase her out, as smart as she was, how could he not notice anything unusual?
When he went down to the second floor, he heard her open the door, and he threw the stairs to the second floor and fled as fast as he could.
If they really met, if she cried and shouted that he was not allowed to leave again, he was not sure that he could clean up the mess, there was only her in this world, and only she would make him unable to help himself!
So he fled, and for the sake of the big picture, he could only flee.
He was leaving on Monday, so this weekend, he's with him.
I followed her to the hospital and stood outside the window and saw my father. The father lay quietly, his face flushed, as if he had fallen asleep. He knew that she took good care of her father.
She sat on the edge of the bed and held her father's hand and spoke, her eyes as bright as stars, her smile brighter than the sun, and her lips open and closed, reminding him of her softness and fragrance.
Tell him how to be willing to leave, so she tells him how to be willing to leave!
But at the same time, his heart hurts, and such huge medical expenses are all pressed on her thin shoulders, and she has really suffered in the past few years.
He stood outside the window, his hands clenched into fists, and called her name over and over again in his heart: Siqi, wait for me to come back.
He saw her talking to the doctor, saw her frowning, saw the doctor give her bank card, and understood that she had no money left. But what he cared more about was the young doctor's gaze than her embarrassment.
If he was not mistaken, her eyes were full of admiration, but fortunately she did not accept the doctor's help. But in the years since he left, how many men have beaten her idea? Has anyone ever troubled her? In the past, he sheltered her from the wind and rain, but can she protect herself without him?
He followed her out, all the way to the pawn shop, and when he saw her sitting on a bench in the street and stroking the watch, he instantly understood what she meant. So I took a detour and entered through the back door, discussed with the boss, borrowed the boss's hand, and gave her a million. Everything had to be reasonable and not arouse her suspicions.
Today was his last day with her.
Although he had been cautious, she was so smart, so sharp, that she sensed something somewhat. So today, as soon as he looked at her, she immediately keenly caught his gaze.
Although he changed his makeup, Su Siqi might not necessarily recognize him, but how powerful is a woman's intuition? He didn't dare to try.
When she held her cheeks, her expression was lonely, and her eyes were full of longing pain, he silently lowered his eyes, not daring to look at her again.
Su Siqi didn't have the heart to read, put the book back in its place, carried a small bag, and walked out of the library.
A minute after she left, an old man with gray hair followed her out of the library.
Su Siqi wandered the streets. Although it was windy, bathing in the warm winter sun still made her mood a little better.
Coming to an intersection, she thought about it and crossed the road to the left.
Shen Mengqing looked at the direction she was going, guessed where she was going, he reached out and hailed a taxi, and hurried past the woman. Outside the window, the woman's figure is like a moon flower, blooming delicately in the sun.
Su Siqi went to the flower shop, when the economic situation was good in the past, every time she went to see Shen Mingru, she would come here to buy a handful of moon seasons, because of the number of times, the people in the flower shop became friends with her.
Later, she ran out of money and couldn't afford to spend it, so she happened to pass by here and saw stale flowers thrown in the big bucket outside the flower shop, including Yueji, so she bent down and picked up a few in the bucket, but was seen by the clerk who came out, she was embarrassed, but the clerk was very surprised, and dragged her into the store for warm hospitality.
Since they are friends, she has nothing to hide, saying that her father's condition has not improved, and she is almost unable to pay the expensive medical bills, so she can't afford to spend it. There was a hint of apology in her tone, but the clerks were very moved. said that the unfresh moon season will be kept for her in the future, and she is welcome to come over at any time.
So today, when she walked to that crossroads, she thought of the flower shop, and if she was lucky, there were flowers that had just been thrown away, and it would be good to pick up a few and go back to insert the bottle.
The flower shop business on the weekend was very good, Su Siqi glanced at the door, the clerks were busy, she didn't want to scratch them, so she looked in the big wooden barrel outside, there were some yellowed leaves, roses, carnations, lilies, but there was no moon season.
Disappointed, she straightened up and was about to leave. heard someone behind her call her: "Miss Su, you are here." ”
Su Siqi turned her head and immediately smiled: "Xiao Huang, is business good?" ”
"It's okay, come in, Miss Su."
"I don't want to do things for you, I'm just passing by."
Xiao Huang dragged her to the store: "Didn't I say last time that I would leave you with the moon season?" I haven't seen you coming, so I've left a big handful. ”
She said that the big handful was really unexpected by Su Siqi, she thought it was a bunch of half-dead flowers, she had to pick again, but when Xiao Huang pointed to her, she was shocked, so many flowers, neatly tied, flowers next to each other like smiling faces, wrapped in light blue wrapping paper.
The delicate red flower and pale blue paper are beautiful.
Su Siqi exhaled after half a sound: "This is a flower to be thrown away?" ”
Xiao Huang nodded affirmatively, "Every day, there are so many of them, hundreds of them." ”
But where are those flowers not fresh? Some are budding, some are half-open, some are blooming brightly, the flower branches are erect and erect, and there is no half-point appearance.
Holding it in her arms, she immediately smelled a pungent fragrance, which made her feel kind, the same fragrance as the moon season she had planted before.
But she didn't believe that this was a flower that was about to be thrown away.
However, several clerks confirmed that these flowers were indeed not fresh, but they were well protected, so they seemed fresh. They unanimously asked her to take the flowers away, because they took up too much space in the store, and there were hundreds!
The chattering voices of the clerks made Su Siqi a little confused, and in the end she didn't know how she came out of the store with flowers in her arms.
Holding such a large bouquet of flowers in his arms, it attracted frequent sideways glances from passers-by, and all the way along, all the way fragrant.
Afraid that taking the bus would be crowded with these flowers, Su Siqi walked a long way to take the subway.
Back at home, she unwrapped the wrappers and kept the flowers in several buckets.
She divided the flowers into categories, put the buds together, put the half-opened ones together, put the ones that bloomed just right, and sprinkled some flower salt in the water to keep them longer.
The whole house was filled with the smell of flowers. She had nothing to do, and counted all these moons and seasons, and when she counted them to the end, she looked surprised, and it took a long time to spit out the last number: "Nine hundred and ninety-nine." ”
No more, no less, just nine hundred and ninety-nine.
Why? Why exactly so many? Su Siqi was stunned there, thinking that this thing was too unbelievable!
The flower language of the red moon season: pure love.
It all comes together: long-lasting, pure love.
She was stunned for a long time before she smiled with relief, although it was so coincidental, it made her lonely mood extremely happy at this moment!
