Chapter 269: The Iron Tree Blossoms
When the elevator is stuck between two floors, you can't rush out.
Because if it were to start suddenly, it would be a tragic accident.
That's how ghost stories come about.
After the maintenance master repeatedly emphasized that there would be no risk, Su Chengyi and Chu Tianmian were dragged out by the joint force.
As soon as Su Chengyi returned to the ground, before he could stand firmly, Xu Yang pounced on him with a handful of snot and tears.
"I'm scared to death, Mr. Yi, but fortunately you two are fine!"
Just a common elevator breakdown."
Su Chengyi tried to push his face a little farther away, but to no avail.
Han Bing hugged Chu Tianmian on the other side to appease, and it was not easy to ask about confession at this time.
Most of them are cool, and I guess the carefully prepared flowers and cakes are still drying downstairs at this time.
But at this time, Da Ming seemed to be only worried about their personal safety, and he didn't care about regretting what he confessed.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! You weren't frightened, were you? β
The management of the mall was late at this time, but they looked very nervous, and they really wiped a cold sweat when they wanted to come.
"It's fine."
Su Chengyi nodded, he didn't mean to make trouble with others.
Managers breathe a sigh of relief, and if they meet difficult people, things will not be so simple.
The young man in front of him looked calm, and at first glance he was a good business lord.
So the manager smiled and said thoughtfully:
"Yes, yes, that, we're going to make a compensation for the two of you for mental damages, you see."
"No, you don't."
Su Chengyi shook his head and pointed to the sign on the side that read "Slide carefully".
"If the spare elevator is less frequently serviced and is not recommended for customers, it is better to put a sign.
I don't care, it's not good to scare the cowards over there. β
He then patted Xu Yang and signaled that he could go.
The manager looked sideways, and what he called a "coward" was holding another girl's arm and crying about what had just happened.
Sensing his eyes, the other party was stunned and seemed a little embarrassed.
Realizing that this was in front of outsiders, Chu Tianmian quickly put away his addiction to acting in bitter love dramas.
She smiled lightly with the classic elegant arc of the eldest lady, nodded slightly, and said:
"Good work, goodbye."
What's going on with this inexplicable familiarity.
The manager scratched his head and watched the backs of several young people leaving in unison and walking in the direction of the escalator.
Come to think of it.
When the superior leaders came to inspect the work before, the tone and expression of the girl who spoke to her could not be said to be irrelevant, but could only be said to be exactly the same.
Could it be that the eldest lady of the group came out to let off steam?
The manager thought about it for a while, but had no clue and had to give up.
"Come on, get moving, bring the signs under repair."
It wasn't until he sat on the escalator up and down the stairs that Su Chengyi finally found an opportunity to ask Xu Yang about business.
"Sorry for the chain, what's going on over there?"
Xu Yang let out a "harm" sound, and waved his hand with a smile.
"Oh, what is this, you guys are fine. Will there be a chance next time? β
Lin Tong looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, but in the end he chose to be silent.
After a few twists and turns, when he finally went down to the first floor, Su Chengyi saw the bouquet on the counter at a glance.
A mash-up of tulips, pink roses and violets.
Da Smart's aesthetic this time seems to be pretty good.
Pity.
Su Cheng thought about it for a while, and suddenly slowed down without a trace.
Xu Yang and Lin Tong were a little absent-minded and didn't notice that he was left behind.
He stood still at the counter, his eyes down at the brightly blooming bouquet.
White tulips bloom well.
Before Xu Yang and Lin Tong noticed it, Su Chengyi reached out and pulled the best-looking one of them, hid it behind him, and then hurried to catch up.
"How so? Back at school, I still have homework to write in the evening. β
Han Bing tightened his scarf, and the soles of his leather boots made a slightly urging crunch on the marble steps at the entrance of the mall.
Chu Tianmian was immersed in the story of the monkey paw, and he was panicked all the way down, and then he remembered that the "matchmaker operation" he planned was already in vain.
"Ahh What about you? β
Su Chengyi met her eyes with a slight hint of help, and did not speak.
Seeing this, Lin Tong had no choice but to answer:
"Then disband? Had a great day! I'll call a taxi. β
He lowered his head and started taking a taxi on his phone.
Su Chengyi took a step back, leaned against the glass door of the mall, raised his foot and kicked Xu Yang's ankle.
The other turned his head for some reason.
Su Chengyi handed him the tulip hidden behind him without a trace.
Xu Yang was a little surprised at first, but soon understood his intentions.
Han Bing didn't notice the movement of the two of them here, she was busy helping Lin Tong enter the school address.
Su Chengyi took two steps forward slowly, first pulling aside Chu Tianmian, who was watching the excitement on the side.
After Lin Tong placed a taxi order, he just looked up and knew Su Chengyi's intentions, so he quietly moved a few steps away.
So when Han Bing came back to his senses, the five of them had already formed a formation of "slaves".
What the hell are you doing again?
She felt a little funny for a while, and just as she was about to open her mouth to question, a tulip was handed to her.
Xu Yang's face turned awkwardly to the other side, and the hand holding the flower stem trembled slightly.
Han Bing was stunned for a moment, and Xu Yang said slowly:
"I hope you're happy today."
The three people next to him pricked up their ears didn't expect him to ask such a question.
Su Chengyi felt that these words were a little inexplicable, he originally wanted Xu Yang to use this flower to confess.
Although the form failed by mistake, it didn't affect the intention of confession.
A bouquet of flowers is very beautiful, but a flower is also sufficient.
Chu Tianmian was more optimistic, feeling that although the "matchmaker operation" failed, the "icebreaker operation" could still raise a hand.
Lin Tong couldn't say clearly, but he didn't have a bad premonition in his heart, so maybe it was not bad?
Of course, Han Bing didn't expect Xu Yang to say this with a flower.
But she was silent for a moment, and actually smiled.
"Thank you."
She took the flowers.
The surrounding frozen air suddenly relaxed, glowing with warmth.
Although Su Chengyi didn't understand it very well, he could see that the situation had changed inexplicably.
The five of them stood together again, waiting in the cold wind for the taxi to arrive.
I don't know who hummed the song first, there were no lyrics, just a vague tune.
Su Cheng thought about it, it seemed to be the song Xu Yang chose for today's confession ceremony.
It's called "First Snow".
βοΌ
I have nothing to say like a fool,
Merry Merry ChristmasοΌοΌ
Just talking about Merry Merry Christmas, how are you doing?
οΌ
Snowflakes fall on this scarred heart,
οΌ
Let the snow cover everything,
οΌ
Is this the tears or the snow,
οΌ ChristmasοΌ
You seem to be drifting away from that Christmas. β
Su Chengyi and Chu Dumping slept in a taxi back to Beijing University.
"Su Chengyi, that tulip was given to Xu Yang by you!"
Chu Qianmian asked curiously.
"Hmm."
Su Chengyi looked at the scenery flying outside the window and replied nonchalantly.
"How did you think of it, how did you be so smart?"
Chu Tianmian was very happy, and he reunited his good friendship for several people.
Her happiness and sadness are always pure.
Su Chengyi withdrew his eyes and turned to look at her rippling dimples.
Chu Tianmian was suddenly a little shy by him, so he chose to have nothing to say, nothing to do.
"Hmph, but you've taken all the flowers, why don't you give me one by the way!
What if I want it too."
It is commonly known as finding faults.
Su Chengyi seemed to be waiting for her words.
As if by magic, he pulled a rose from the sleeve of his coat and handed it to her, raising it slightly.
The petals of the rose have no signs of being damaged, and they are still beautiful, and they are the pale pink color that satisfies the girl's heart the most.
The roots of Chu Qianmian's ears instantly turned red.
Oh my God.
Don't be afraid of rhetoric and sugar-coated shells, just afraid of the mountains and the sky and the earth and the iron tree blooming!
"Thank you."
ββββββββββββββ
Catching up with the rush hour, it was already dinner time when I returned to Kyoto University.
Miss Chu still had homework to hand in, so she hurriedly bought two breads and went back to the dormitory crying.
Su Chengyi went to the cafeteria leisurely alone.
"Auntie, two portions of preserved egg and lean porridge, pack and take away."
When I passed by the porridge shop, I heard a somewhat familiar voice.
Su Chengyi glanced curiously, Li Tao was standing in front of the window, taking out his meal card to settle the bill.
"Drip".
"Brother Li."
He paused and said hello.
"Huh, you're back?"
Li Tao turned around and raised a smile.
He didn't look very good yet, and he had thick dark circles under his black-rimmed glasses.
Su Chengyi raised his eyebrows and looked at the plastic porridge bowl he was carrying.
"Who is it for?"
"For Matthew."
The lid of the porridge bowl was a little unsecure, so Li Tao hurriedly lifted it to the table and re-closed the box tightly.
"How's the other guy?"
Su Chengyi glanced up at the porridge shop's signature menu.
"I'm still not feeling well today, and I'm lying in the infirmary hanging water. I'm just going to take a look at it with my food right now. β
Li Tao sighed.
β.β
Is it so serious to block back the wine? How much has it been poured into?
Su Chengyi was silent for a moment and replied:
"Wait a minute."
He stepped forward to swipe his meal card.
"Auntie, pack a bowl of eight-treasure porridge."
The two of them carried the porridge and walked to the infirmary together.
"Do you like sweet porridge?"
"Well, I'm not used to salty porridge."
Su Chengyi didn't like to drink salty porridge since he was a child, which once made Su Zelang in the vernacular area feel very confused, and in his cognition, any dish can be used to make porridge.
However, after he found that no matter how much he tried to correct and brainwash it was useless, he didn't bother to take care of his son anymore.
The infirmary is not far away, just across a path from the cafeteria.
When I arrived, the porridge bowl in my hand was still steaming hot.
Recently, winter has begun, and beds in the school infirmary are obviously in short supply.
Li Tao took Su Chengyi to turn left and right, and finally found Matthew's bed.
There are also people on the side, but the curtains are all drawn.
It looked like he was going to rest, and Su Chengyi subconsciously lightened his steps.
When I saw Matthew, I just nodded and said hello.
He was lying on the hospital bed, his face pale, with a hanging bottle in his hand, and he waved his hand very hard in response.
"Ahem, why are you here too?"
"I just went back to school and met Brother Li, so I came over to see you. Is it better now? β
Su Chengyi put the porridge bowl on the table next to him.
"It's much better, I still vomit in the morning, and I feel like I'm going to vomit bile!
I'm still feeling a little hungry. β
Matthew smiled and sat up.
"Hey, it's really a comrade who still needs to work hard! I didn't expect that I couldn't drink so much, and I still had to practice.
I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you last night. β
Matthew folded his hands and apologized to Su Chengyi.
"Nothing."
Su Chengyi didn't care about this, and shook his head.
"To apologize to everyone, I, Matthew, have decided! Tomorrow, please go to the movie together, "Interstellar"! β
Matthew grinned and proposed.
β.β
Su Chengyi felt that he was going to vomit in the next second.
"Let's eat first."
Li Tao saw that he didn't seem to want to see it, so he got up and unfolded the folding table on one side and put the porridge bowl on it.
"Wow~ Preserved egg and lean porridge, it's so fragrant!"
Matthew looked really hungry, and his eyes lit up with a bowl of porridge.
Su Chengyi didn't rush to open the packing box, he sat on the edge of the hospital bed and looked at the surrounding environment.
It didn't matter what it looked like, the curtain of the bed next to it was suddenly lifted through a gap.
A pair of familiar smart eyes were revealed.
As soon as the two looked at each other, the other squinted his eyes slyly and lifted the curtain.
"Why are you here?"
Su Chengyi subconsciously cleared his throat and leaned back slightly.
Sitting on the hospital bed next to him was actually Ye Tang.
Hearing Su Chengyi ask this, she raised her wrist and dangled it speechlessly, and the needle was pierced on the back of her white hand, faintly oozing a little red blood.
If it weren't for the needle, it would probably have been handed to Su Chengyi for him to take a good look at.
"Big brother, what do you say I'm doing here?"
Su Chengyi's eyes only stayed on the red blood stain for a short moment, and Ye Tang quickly retracted his hand and hid it out of sight.
Li Tao listened to the two people always talk like a quarrel, and seemed to be a little out of order, so he opened his mouth and said in harmony:
"Mr. Su, classmate Ye Tang is also from the Student Union, the Propaganda Department."
Su Chengyi raised his eyes and glanced at her, and sure enough, his face was exactly the same as Matthew in the next bed.
Ye Tang shook his fist, as if he was a little dissatisfied with his scrutinizing eyes.
"Hey, what do you mean by that? Look down on people, huh? β
Su Chengyi didn't answer, but slowly changed the topic.
"Are you so idle? It's a debate club and a student union. β
"Burn life Okay, I'm such a burning, burning, burning ambitious girl!"
Ye Tang began to run the train with his mouth full again.
"Mr. Su, don't underestimate her, she drinks much better than me, and she is the one who carries it down in the newcomer.
She took our bus back to school. Thank you, squad leader, it's good to have you, otherwise Brother Li and I would have to sleep on the streets. β
Matthew was so hungry that he couldn't care about the heat, and drank a few sips of porridge before he spoke.
"It's easy to say."
Ye Tang waved her hand like a heroine who did good deeds without leaving a name.
"So why are you here?"
Su Chengyi asked very shamelessly.
"The boat capsized in the gutter, and the old horse stumbled!"
Ye Tang pouted in protest.
Su Chengyi glanced at her, and stood up with his palms propped up on the edge of the bed.
"What are you doing? This good man, you're not going to poison the sick number, are you? β
Ye Tang was a little inexplicably flustered about his sudden approach, but his mouth was chaotic.
Su Chengyi didn't bother to speak, just put the unopened eight-treasure porridge in her hand on the table next to her.
Since I have a symptom with Matthew, I think I vomited for a day, and I should be very hungry by now.
"Save some effort to recuperate, classmate Ye."
