Chapter 47: A Serendipitous Encounter

Intense electronic music and drum beats, countless bodies writhing wildly under the flickering lights, bubbles of cigarettes, foreign wine, beer, red lips like fire, laughter and whispering between men and women, hugging bodies one by one.

A blurred face, an inaudible voice.

Then, there was a cold wind, a strange wave of joy that poured into the body.

Lu Xiaoling opened her eyes suddenly.

The outside of the window had begun to light slightly, but there was still darkness and silence around it.

She closed her eyes again, but the sensation of tobacco and alcohol in her mouth became clearer.

Not again!

She sat up sharply and rushed to her dressing room, where the red tight leather jacket that had not been worn for a long time had traces of being worn again, and the boots that had been wiped clean and put away were placed aside, with tiny mud spots on them.

She jerked her head up, and the face in the mirror was full of panic and fear.

What happened?

……

"Xiaoling, what's wrong with you these days? Why are you always listless? Li Li asked Lu Xiaoling while wiping the glass on the shelf with a snow-white towel.

"It's nothing, probably I slept too late."

She could finally understand the pain of not daring to sleep as Sun Yang said before, and she just relied on meditation and breathing to rest and relax her mind every night, and then practiced drawing charms one by one.

She even tried to point a video camera at herself, hoping to capture what was happening, but all she did was frowning in her sleep, whispering something or something.

After many days of perseverance, she finally gave up on such a futile attempt, but who knows, that feeling will come back immediately.

What's going on?

Sleepwalking?

She secretly looked up information related to sleepwalking on the Internet. According to the above, the causes of sleepwalking are very complex and often related to mental depression.

Why do you have such symptoms all of a sudden?

She couldn't understand it.

According to the information on the Internet, most sleepwalkers' actions are not too complicated, but she knows that her situation must not be simple, she usually never drinks, but every time she feels like this, there will always be a stench of alcohol in her mouth. This shows that she has not only gone out, but at least bought alcohol in the surrounding supermarkets or bars.

But strangely, she used the reason that she had lost her belongings to check the building's surveillance footage, but she did not capture the video of herself leaving the room and entering the hallway.

"Did you tell Sun Yang?" Li Li asked.

Lu Xiaoling shook her head.

Sun Yang was in the critical period of learning boxing and divine fighting from Huang Dou, and she didn't want to bother him with such a thing. And she had a feeling that what happened to her should not be known to anyone else.

"Today I asked the owner of the flower shop to see the goods, and I am going to replace all the flowers on our flower stand, do you want to go with you?" Li Li asked. "That florist is very interesting, you might like her!"

"Nope." Lu Xiaoling shook her head.

"Let's go! Aren't you annoyed by staying in the store all day? How long has it been since we've both been shopping? Li Li came over and grabbed her arm. I'll leave everything to Sun Yang and Huang Dou today, and the two of us will go out for a walk! ”

Lu Xiaoling couldn't resist her, so she could only take off her apron.

Sun Yang smiled at her at the counter.

As for Huang Dou, he was usually surrounded by a group of girls.

The two drove Li Li's red mini car to Nanyan, and Li Li complained to Lu Xiaoling about Ma Bin's recent depression and incompetence while driving, and then complained that she hadn't bought new clothes for a long time. "I've become your slave!" She grumbled. "Growing up, I haven't invested so much time in one thing!"

"You are also a shareholder yourself~" Lu Xiaoling said casually looking out the window.

"I'm only 30 percent! Is it just you and Sun Yang's little sister? Li Li said.

The car turned right into a street flanked by neon signs and colorful signs, and the ground was littered with garbage left over from the previous night. It was the city that never sleeps in the distant mountains, but now, it is sleeping in the early morning sun.

"What are you doing here?" Lu Xiaoling suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, this place gave her an inexplicable sense of familiarity, but she was sure that she should have never been to this place.

"Take a shortcut?" Li Li replied. "I also found out last time I took the wrong road, this road goes out and turns left is Nanyan Pedestrian Street!"

Lu Xiaoling didn't speak again, and a signboard on the side of the road suddenly made her heart twitch.

Pink.

Why?

Could it be that this has something to do with your own weird feelings?

The road was empty, so Li Li drove the car fast, and the signboard was quickly left behind.

"It's here!" Li Li parked the car on the side of the road, stuffed a large handful of coins into the timer, and then happily pulled Lu Xiaoling to the commercial center. The two of them used to come to this place often, but Lu Xiaoling didn't expect that there would be such a big nightclub not far from this place.

The doubts and doubts in her heart were quickly dispelled by Li Li, and she pulled Lu Xiaoling from one store to another, and soon, Lu Xiaoling's desire to buy was also completely aroused.

It wasn't until three hours later that the two remembered what they were here for, hurriedly stuffed a dozen large and small handbags into the car, and hurriedly ran to the flower shop that Li Li said.

Huan Coriander.

Very strange name.

Thinking like this, Li Li had already pushed open the door vigorously and walked in. "Akiba, I'm here again~~~!"

"Li Li?" A tall and heroic girl stood up from a large field of flowers and shook her hand in this direction, but in the next moment, her body suddenly stiffened.

"How's business going today?" Li Li was looking down at the colorful potted plants, not noticing her strangeness at all. But Lu Xiaoling saw a faint yellow gas flash on her.

She's not an ordinary person!

Lu Xiaoling immediately became vigilant.

The girl was the only one in the huge flower shop, and the whole shop was transparent, and the sunlight shone obliquely through the glass on the green leaves of the plants, making the place look vibrant.

"Xiaoling, let me tell you, Autumn leaves are very powerful! Last time, there were two thugs who wanted to collect protection money, but she kicked them out one by one......" Li Li straightened up with two potted plants full of small yellow flowers in her hands, but saw Lu Xiaoling holding two charms in her hands.

"What are you doing?" She asked, surprised. "It's not clean here?" She suddenly tensed.

"It's not." Lu Xiaoling looked at the girl standing not far away, her face was also hesitant and confused, maybe it was just a misunderstanding? Even if she is a monk or even a monster, she has opened a shop here and has always maintained a very good relationship with Li Li, so she shouldn't be a bad person, right?

"What about you?"

Lu Xiaoling put away the charm. "Probably I was mistaken."

"Don't scare me." Li Li said angrily. She enthusiastically introduced the two of them: "Autumn leaves, this is my best friend Lu Xiaoling, and my bookstore is opened with her!" Xiaoling, this is Yao Qiuye, the owner of this flower shop. Don't look at her quietly, maybe she is even better than you in the fight! ”

"Hello." Lu Xiaoling and Yao Qiuye both stood in place and reluctantly said hello.

"What's wrong with you two?" Li Li was a little puzzled. She has always felt that Lu Xiaoling and Yao Qiuye are very similar in temperament in a sense, and she has always been looking forward to whether there will be any sparks when the two meet. But so bland?

"Are your flowers going to be changed?" Yao Qiuye looked at Lu Xiaoling and asked Li Li.

"That's right~ It's good to give a good price this time~"

"I know, what kind of flowers do you like, pick them first, and I'll send them to your store another day."

"Yes, yes! Xiaoling, what are you doing in a daze, hurry up and come over and help me pick it! ”
