The lure of the wolf

The store Qiao Qian found for them was only 20 square meters, but the location was very suitable, in the university town.

Xu Bei didn't graduate from high school, so he naturally didn't know the spending habits of college students, but Qiao Qian saw it when he was in college. This person only did three things during college, eating, sleeping, and picking up girls.

So restaurants and flower shops should be in the same business.

"You don't need to buy too many other flowers, just a few of the popular tastes, but enough roses," Qiao Qian squatted at the door of the store, watching Xu Bei and Lang Jiu tidy up the flower shelves in the room, "I will I bought all the roses, all kinds of roses..."

"Trash, after buying so many roses, I still have to rely on my right hand to live at night," Xu Bei laughed, holding a rag and turning it in his hand, "I've never bought flowers to pick up girls."

"That's different, the quality is different." Qiao Qian lit a cigarette, and didn't mind Xu Bei exposing him.

"It's all girls, it depends on the cost..."

"You just don't have the quality. When something comes to your mouth, it will be out of shape."

Lang Jiu was sweeping the floor, listening to the two of them arguing for a long time about their experience in picking up girls, and finally interjected: "Anyway, none of you are dating now, it's all the same."

"Damn!" Both of them were choked by Lang Jiu's words and didn't know what to say.

"I remember that the child seemed to be unable to speak well before, but now he can slip out so smoothly?" Qiao Qian looked Lang Jiu up and down curiously.

"He is awesome now, he can choke you to death with just a word," Xu Bei pushed Lang Jiu, "Go get some water."

There is no local flower wholesaler in Dingchuan, so Xu Bei bought flowers from a flower market in the north of the city. He didn't care too much about the varieties. Now that spring has just arrived, there are not many varieties of flowers. He only followed Qiao Qian's instructions, and asked for more roses. some.He just wants to fill up the store now, so that people don't look like they can do anything.

This time is actually not very suitable for a flower shop, the purchase price of flowers is quite high, and Valentine's Day has already passed, if Xu Bei hadn't been questioned by Xu Ling, he would not have decided on a flower shop at this time.

It's just that the words have already been said, and he doesn't want to change them. In Xu Ling's heart, his elder brother has become a representative figure who is habitually unreliable. He can't make Xu Ling think otherwise on this matter. .

Xu Bei was quite satisfied when the flowers came over, at least they looked good, and when they were placed in the store, they looked a little bit better.

"This is the end of the matter." Xu Bei took a chair and put it in the room, sat down, stared at the flowers in the room for a long time, and felt quite impressed.

Lang Jiu leaned against the wall with his arms in his arms and flipped through the pages. This was bought at the bookstore yesterday. There were all kinds of fresh flowers and shapes on it, and even the pictures with words made Xu Bei's brain hurt. Throw it to Lang Jiu.

"I'm going to buy some medicine." Lang Jiu took out the flowers from a bucket and stared at the flower poles for a long time.

"What medicine?"

"To keep fresh, aspirin, vitamin C," Lang Jiu opened the book and handed it to Xu Bei, "There are many ways to keep fresh, this is the simplest and fastest..."

Xu Bei went to the pharmacy to buy a bunch of medicines according to Lang Jiu's request. When he came back, he found that there were customers picking flowers in the store. He was shocked. Someone came before he even figured out the price?

The flowers were picked by two little girls, who fell in love with the white calla lilies in the shop, and one of them turned to look at Lang Jiu: "What is the flower language of this calla lily, is it suitable for a pair of lovers?"

Xu Bei was walking towards the store with one leg, and he nodded his head when he heard this. To be honest, he only knew that it was called a calla lily when he went to buy it. Who the hell knows what the flower language is?Xu Bei felt that it was about to make a fool of himself before it even opened...

"Loyal and unswerving, we will be united forever." Lang Jiu said slowly.

"Ah, then this one is suitable." As soon as the little girl heard this, she started picking flowers.

Xu Bei pulled Lang Jiu over, and asked him in a low voice, "Fuck, how did you know? Did you make it up?"

"It's written in the book," Lang Jiu took the book and turned to the last few pages, densely packed with flower language, "I haven't finished reading it yet..."

"Son, you are awesome." Xu Bei patted him on the shoulder.

During the time when the girl was picking flowers, Xu Bei looked at the wrapping paper under the counter and was worried. He didn’t know how to open a flower shop. Bag?

"How much is one?" One little girl looked at Lang Jiu after picking out flowers, while the other just kept looking at him.

"...Ask the boss." Lang Jiu hesitated for a moment, then pointed to Xu Bei who was studying the wrapping paper behind the counter.

Xu Bei almost blurted out that he didn't know. He quickly grabbed the purchase order to find the purchase price, and without thinking about it, he added a few yuan and quoted the price: "Ten yuan."

"Yeah, it's cheaper, it's so expensive." The little girl came over and pouted at him.

Xu Bei felt a little pissed for a moment. He couldn't bear the tender little girl's whining at him the most, and almost wanted to give him a half-fold, but Lang Jiu kept staring at him, making him very sober. The girl smiled: "This is already a discounted price for beauties, we haven't opened yet..."

"Then we are the first guests. You should send us off with great luck." Another girl also came over, and Xu Bei wanted to cry when she said this, and the little girls were more able to speak than one.

"Give this to you." Lang Jiu took out a few roses from a barrel, and they were very beautiful.

"Ah, okay," the little girl nodded immediately. They didn't expect to get calla lilies for nothing. It would be nice to get a few roses for free. Come and get it."

"Choose some wrapping paper." Xu Bei pushed the small shelf with all kinds of wrapping paper in front of the little girl, looked at Lang Jiu, and wanted to get angry, so he gave it away for nothing, there are still a few!Fuck, this is a fucking prodigal stuff!

After the little girl turned around and left the store after paying the money, Xu Bei jumped up and slapped Lang Jiu on the back: "You are so awesome, you can give it away as soon as you ask, and you can give it away if you want..."

"These flowers will wither tomorrow," Lang Jiu frowned, and handed the roses to Xu Bei, "The pole is broken."

Xu Bei took it over and looked at it. The stalks of several flowers were indeed broken or cracked. If you don’t look carefully, you can’t really tell. He has no experience in buying goods for the first time, so he just picked them up randomly. If you can't sell it, you have to throw it away tomorrow.

Xu Bei didn't expect Lang Jiu to be quite smart. He gave the little girl these few flowers that might be thrown away tomorrow. It was considered as a favor. Maybe if he was happy, he could help promote it when he returned to school. .He poked Lang Jiu's face with his finger: "Okay, praise... Now let's talk about the packaging, can you do it?"

"No." Lang Jiu replied very simply, and took out a book from under the counter and began to flip through it.

Xu Bei leaned over and took a look. It was full of pictures, including flower arrangements and bouquet packaging, and they were also bought in a bookstore. It seemed that he was planning to learn now.Xu Bei squatted in front of the wrapping paper. The little girl just picked out a few, and he matched the colors again. He felt that it was almost done, so he threw the whole thing in front of Lang Jiu: "This first order is up to you. Yes, handsome."

In fact, the paper for wrapping flowers is nothing more than the commonly used ones. In Xu Bei's view, the final effect is similar to that of wrapping candles for children. The key is the matching flowers and leaves and shape.

Lang Jiu struggled for a long time, and began to choose flowers according to a photo in the book. He used a small yellow flower that looked like cauliflower to match. Xu Bei checked the purchase list. It's like a baby's breath, one white and one yellow.

After choosing the flowers, Lang Jiu picked out a piece of light pink crepe paper and a piece of white gauze according to the pictures. Xu Bei's job was to help him after he inserted the flowers as shown in the pictures, and then looked at the flowers. Watching him concentrate on shaping the paper and then tying it.

"It's almost done, it doesn't have to be exactly the same." Xu Bei found out that Lang Jiu had a problem. What he wanted to learn had to be exactly the same, otherwise he wouldn't stop.

"It's different." Lang Jiu pointed at the picture.

"Damn, could it be the same?" Xu Bei's hands were sore, and he pushed the book to the edge of the counter with his elbow, and pushed it directly to the ground, "Okay, tie a bow and we're done. Lively, sometimes it stays not much different from a meteorite."

In the end Lang Jiu ignored Xu Bei's strong objection, and made a green bow for the bouquet of flowers. After tying it up, he looked at Xu Bei proudly: "Isn't it pretty?"

"Do you have to get a green one?" Xu Bei's acceptance range for bows is only red, and he will feel awkward if he looks beyond this range.

"It looks good." Lang Jiu nodded with certainty.

"Whatever you want," Xu Bei waved his hand and removed the green bow. He was very satisfied with the bouquet of flowers. Lang Jiu was not skilled in the movements, but the bouquet of flowers he wrapped was pretty good-looking. If you don't like this color, you can change it."

"I'll love it."

When the little girl came back, she responded enthusiastically to the bouquet and expressed her double love for the green bow, which Xu Bei couldn't understand.

"Handsome boss, next time we come to buy flowers, we will have a discount." The little girl was very happy because the gift roses were also wrapped in white yarn and a small bow. Low price."

"Well, that's easy to say," Xu Bei noticed that the little girl had been staring at his face when she spoke, so a smile curled up on the corner of her mouth, "It's as if we're making friends."

After seeing off the little girl, Lang Jiu walked up to him, reached out and pinched his chin directly: "Did you do it on purpose?"

"What's on purpose?" Xu Bei glanced sideways, but no one passed by, so he didn't pat Kai Lang Jiu's hand.

"Laughed at them like that just now."

"Isn't it okay to just smile?"

"You never smiled at me like that," Lang Jiu was a little depressed, "It's very pretty."

"Yo," Xu Bei couldn't help being happy, and pushed his hand away, "That's a special smile for picking up girls, are you a girl?"

"But..." Lang Jiu was a little depressed. It turned out that Xu Bei's beautiful smile didn't belong to him, which made him very disappointed. It turned out that Xu Bei still had something he wouldn't give him.

Xu Bei noticed the change in his expression, and gave him a push: "I said, aren't you, are you depressed?"

"Yeah." Lang Jiu didn't speak anymore, turned around and took the medicine that Xu Bei had just bought, and began to mix the potion into the flower bucket to keep it fresh.

Xu Bei looked at his bent back, feeling a little emotional, is this child too sensitive, or too dull.

"Student Lang Jiu." Xu Bei called him.

Lang Jiu didn't seem to hear him, didn't answer, didn't look at him, still kept his head down and went about his own business.

"Stupid?" Xu Bei called again, but still didn't get a response. It seemed that this guy was angry, so he held back a smile and continued calling, "Master Lang?"

Lang Jiu simply carried the bucket and walked outside the store. Xu Bei was delighted, and sat on the chair and put his legs on the counter: "Honey."

"Huh?" Lang Jiu reacted immediately this time, turning his head to look at him.

"Honey," Xu Bei laughed uncontrollably, dangling on his toes, "Come here, I have something to tell you."

"Do you know that people have many faces," Xu Bei leaned on the chair and looked at Lang Jiu who was standing beside him, "There are many times when you have to pretend to be seen by others, whether you are smiling or happy. , what is pretended is not true.”

"I don't understand." Lang Jiu felt that he had never pretended.

"I know you don't understand," Xu Bei sighed, "Let's be blunt, just smiling at that girl just now is just pretending, understand, fake, and vice versa, I won't smile like that to you, With you, I can do whatever I want, this is the real me..."

"I understand now." Lang Jiu interrupted Xu Bei's words suddenly. He understood Xu Bei's meaning. The Xu Bei that others see may not be his real appearance, but what he sees is.

He bent down happily, kissed Xu Bei's mouth, and after thinking about it, he lowered his head and kissed him on the forehead.

"Don't push yourself too hard," Xu Bei wiped his face carelessly a few times, "there's no end to kissing, right?"

Lang Jiu smiled, supported the back of the chair and bent down again, planning to find another place to kiss.

There was a sound of a horn outside the door, and Xu Bei poked his head from Lang Jiu's side to take a look, and almost fell off the chair, he pushed Lang Jiu away and jumped up.

Lang Jiu turned his head and saw a motorcycle parked outside the door. The person who got off took off his helmet and walked over slowly.

It's Xu Ling.

Xu Ling had stopped outside the door for 2 minutes. At first, he wanted to make sure that the address Qiao Qian mentioned was here, and then he saw Xu Bei sitting inside.

But he didn't have a chance to go in right away, because Lang Jiu walked over, and he was caught off guard and saw all the actions between the two of them clearly.If they don't honk, I don't know if they will continue to have more outrageous actions.

Although he had guessed about the relationship between Lang Jiu and Xu Bei before, it was just a guess. When the facts suddenly appeared in front of him, he still couldn't believe it.

"Why are you here?" Xu Bei jumped over two flower buckets and jumped in front of him.

"Brother Qiao told me that you started working on it." Xu Ling glanced at Lang Jiu, a little uncomfortable, "I wanted to see if there was anything I could help with... Forget it, you'll be busy first."

Xu Ling was really embarrassed, turned around and walked out.

"Wait," Xu Bei suddenly understood, Xu Ling might have seen something, he couldn't just let Xu Ling go, if he didn't explain this clearly, with Xu Ling's temper, I'm afraid he won't have a chance to speak again , "We'll have a meal later."

"Do you have something to tell me?" Xu Ling looked back at him.

"Well, it's very important."
