Lotus Chronicle

Lian Er walked slowly past one store after another, without squinting, walked straight and turned with purpose.

Lian Er has been up and down this mall several times, and I have an impression of what is sold in which location.

As for the birthday gift to buy for his senior sister, Lian Er had a plan in mind, and he had already thought of what to buy.

After walking for about 3 minutes, Lian Er arrived at the destination.

This is a relatively deserted aisle on the second floor. Several shops on both sides have been closed. Only a few scattered shops are open. Lian Er walked to the end and turned left, and walked four or five steps until he reached a half-covered glass door.

It was the innermost store. Looking at the facade, it felt deserted and unpopular, and there was no sign on the door. People who didn't know it didn't know what kind of store it was.

In fact, few people come back to this store at ordinary times, and most people, usually when they see the end of the aisle, even if there are still a few stores over there, they will go back the same way, and they will not turn back after walking through all the stores.Even if you see this store, just because of the gloomy atmosphere, you will subconsciously take a detour, unless you are a curious person.

The reason why Lian Er knew about this store was because someone else introduced it.

The owner's handicraft is very good. The things he makes are very delicate and small, some are of normal size, and some are large. They are all practical. Every carved handicraft is made by the owner himself, and one style is only made once. , never repeating.

And this store will not accept reservations from customers, and will not make the styles requested by customers. The owner always makes whatever he wants, and when he is ready, he will mark a price and put it on the window. Whoever likes it will follow the price. Pay, never bargain with you.

Lian Er bought a hollowed-out wooden pen holder last time, and has always liked it very much, and put it on the desk in the room.When I first bought it, I occasionally took a look at it, and my heart would exude the joy of seeing the beloved thing, and the excitement of finding a treasure.This mood lasted for several days before calming down.

Everything sold from here is unique, so this store without a store name is called 'unique' in private.

The owner of this shop is a weird person, he looks like a man in his thirties, but his hair is always messy, his beard is unshaven, and his eyes are red all the time, as if he has never rested. It is vaguely judged that he is a good-looking man after taking care of himself.No one knows the owner's name, he never introduces himself in front of the guests, and no one has ever seen anyone who knows the owner come to him, as if he appeared out of nowhere, this person is alone in this world, there is no loved ones, no friends,

This man was very taciturn, and Lian Er had only heard him say two sentences a few times when he came here, and it was still a very short word.

When Lian Er walked into the store, the owner was sitting in the corner, holding a knife and pen in his left hand, and a piece of wood with a strange shape in his right hand. He was engraving with concentration. action.

"Good evening." Lian Er greeted lightly, but no surprise there was no answer.

Lian Er was careful not to make a sound, and walked lightly to the side window. Eight layers of templates with small intervals ran parallel to a wall of mirrors, and they were filled with various handicrafts of different shapes.

I haven't been here for a while, and the owner has made a lot of handicrafts.

Lian Er looked from the far side, looking at each item carefully, thinking about what the senior sister preferred.

Suddenly, Lian Er's gaze was fixed in front of him, and his eyes fell on a small animal carved from jade.

This is a simple and cute puppy, carved lifelike, with a chubby body the size of a palm, on all fours, with its fleshy head raised up, howling like a wolf, looking at the bluffing movements, it seems that it can learn from it Hearing the immature 'oooh' sound in his mouth made people laugh, and it made people want to hold it in their arms and love it.

The senior has always liked dogs, but unfortunately the senior has a furry phobia, and has always been very afraid of small animals such as cats and dogs, so the senior has always regretted not being able to raise one herself, and can only watch other people's pets drooling.Lian Er has known her for four years and has heard her complain countless times.

He even urged him several times to let him keep a puppy in the apartment. Even if he can't keep a dog, he can keep a cat, but Lian Er refused.

Senior sister must like this gift very much.

Lian Er thought about it, and stretched out her hand to pick up the jade dog.A hand reached out from behind, and took the jade dog in his hand one step faster than Lian Er.

Lian Er frowned slightly, turned around to see who was robbing him of what he wanted, and when he saw an acquaintance he didn't want to see, Lian Er frowned even tighter.

After looking at the things in his hand, Vino smiled, looked at Lian Er and said, "The little thing is very cute." He touched the top of the puppy's head with his fingers, as if it was a live puppy in front of him.

Lian Er stared at Vino coldly for a few seconds before reaching out, "Give it back to me."

Suo Xingwei Nuo had no intention of robbing Lian Er, and gave the things to Lian Er readily, "Do you like these little things? Or are you giving them away? I almost forgot, Zhixia's birthday will be in a few days, are you buying this?" Come to give it to her, right? I remember she always likes these, Zhixia will be very happy to receive this gift."

Holding the things in his hands, Lian Er didn't have any intention of responding to Lian Er, turned around and walked towards the payment counter by the door.

The shopkeeper had already stood behind the counter at some point, looking in an unknown direction with a dull gaze.

"Swipe the card." Lian Er took out an ID card. Although this jade is common and not expensive, it still costs a little money to carve it into a handicraft. Lian Er didn't have so much cash with him, so he could only swipe his card.

Although the shopkeeper looked like he was wandering, his hands moved very quickly, Lian paid the money in two or three strokes, put the selected gift in the box on the table, packed it and put it in the bag.

"Goodbye."

Lian Er said goodbye with her things in hand, turned around and left the shop.

Vino put his hands halfway in his trouser pockets, and followed Lian Er leisurely, "Lian, don't you think the owner of that shop just now is weird? And there are a lot of weird things in his shop, really. It's strange that such a store can continue to open. Do ordinary people dare to go in when they see such a store? But the things there look good..."

Along the way, only Vino's voice was heard, and Lian Erdang didn't hear it.

Vino's eyes kept staring at Lian Er's back. Seeing that Lian Er had always regarded him as non-existent, his eyes darkened, and his voice turned into aggrieved, "Lian, don't ignore me, okay?"

Lian Er ignored it.

There was no movement behind him.

Finally left.Lian Er was about to breathe a sigh of relief when his left wrist was suddenly clenched and pulled back forcefully. Lian Er couldn't help taking a few steps back, and his back slammed into a hard wall.

When Lian Er realized it, he was already trapped between the wall and Vino.

Frowning fiercely, Lian Er moved his wrist, trying to tear off the hand held by Wei Nuo that was raised above his head and pressed against the wall, but he didn't move at all.

Lian Er raised his eyes to meet Vino's, his eyes were calm, "Let go."

Vino lowered his head slightly, "You ignore me."

"Why don't you accompany Ichinose-sensei, what are you pestering me for?" Lianji frowned.

Hearing what Lian Er said, Vino smiled instead, "You really saw it." The smile deepened uncontrollably, "You are jealous, I am very happy, you are jealous for me."

Lian Er tilted his head, and said calmly, "You think too much." They have nothing to do with each other. It has nothing to do with him who Vino is with. It's just that if you have someone else, don't pester him anymore. He just finds it very troublesome.

"I didn't think too much about it." Vino shook his head and smiled even more. "You feel very uncomfortable when you see me with other women, don't you? Feel very unhappy? Is it an eyesore?"

Lian Er pursed her lips and stared.

"Hehe... Lian, there is no need for you to be jealous. Don't forget, you are a man."

"What do you mean?"

"Don't understand?" Wei Nuo tilted his head, with an ambiguous smile on the corner of his mouth, and leaned closer to Lian Er, the tip of his nose was almost touching Lian Er's. To Lian Er's earlobe, "It means that I only like men, I'm gay, gay, gay!"

After finishing speaking, Vino moved slightly away from Lian'er, watching Lian'er's reaction with a smile on his face.

After hearing this, Lian Er's expression changed, and he raised his head to look at Wei Nuo, pursing his lips and being speechless.

"No, you can't say that." Wei Nuo frowned for a few seconds, feeling that he didn't express clearly enough, "I don't like men either, I don't have that kind of thought for other men. I only like you, no matter you Whether it's male or female, I like them all."

"Stop talking." Lian Er tried to calm himself, "I don't want to listen to your nonsense."

"But I want to tell you that I belong to you from the beginning to the end." As if feeling that it was not exciting enough, Vino raised his eyebrows and whispered, and continued with a volume enough for Lian Er to hear clearly, "Did I Have I told you that I have always been able to be hard, get, get up, and get up only against you?"

Lian Er blushed, angrily broke free from the restraint and pushed Vino away, and scolded angrily, "Dirty, dirty!"

Following Lian Er's strength, Vino took two steps back, seeing that Lian Er finally reacted, he smiled in a good mood, as long as he reacted, "I'm telling the truth, I don't think my words are obscene." He I think this is the most beautiful love story, and Lian doesn't have to worry about him cheating at all.

Seeing that Lian Er still had an angry face, Vino gradually faded his smile, "Lian, what should I do to make you accept me?"

Lian Er said with a cold face, "Don't waste your efforts, I've already said, we can't."

His attitude was still decisive, with an uncontrollable blunt pain in his heart, Vino raised his eyebrows, "Lian, don't force me."

Lian Er looked at Wei Nuo coldly, and replied word by word, "You don't force me."

Not wanting to get entangled, Lian Er turned around and left quickly.

Vino stood where he was and didn't stop him, just closed his eyes, don't force me...
