Do not lie to me

Shang Xuechen made jokes with Brother Zhou at Brother Zhou's house and made jokes. He left Brother Zhou's house when he had had enough fun at Brother Zhou's place.Touching his pocket, he was about to take out his mobile phone and make a call to Ji Shuping, telling him that thanks to his blessing, he felt elated in various ways today.

Taking out the mobile phone, a card floated out of the pocket of the belt. Shang Xuechen squatted down and picked it up. It was a card from Xingfu Flower Shop. He almost forgot that there was such a card.Holding the card in his hand, he thought of Wen Ting again. Who paid for Wen Ting's tomb to be in the most expensive cemetery?Maybe it was the person who brought flowers to see her in the cemetery.Shang Xuechen gave up the idea of ​​calling Ji Shuping, held the card in his hand, and decided to visit this happy flower shop.

The flower shop is not far away, Shang Xuechen arrived at the flower shop within 10 minutes.The name of this flower shop sounds ordinary, but the decoration is unique, and it looks not small, it is a small second floor.Shang Xuechen entered the shop, walked around a bit, and the shop assistant came up to him after a while and asked, "What kind of bouquet would you like to pick, sir?"

Shang Xuechen was holding the card in his pocket, thinking that the shop was not small, and the clerk didn't take him seriously at first when he came in like this.If you want to ask who the flowers in their store are sold to, you probably have to show off your big hand to get out of the market before you can get the words, so you open your mouth and ask, "Where's your boss?"

Seeing him asking this question, the clerk was a little frightened, and asked him cautiously, "What's the matter, sir?"

Shang Xuechen pretended to be steady, "Oh, our company has an event and needs to order a batch of flowers, so I want to discuss cooperation with your boss."

When the clerk heard that it was business, he relaxed his expression, and greeted Shang Xuechen warmly, "Sorry, our boss is not in the store at the moment, why don't you sit down and wait, sir? We also have homemade scented tea in the store , would you please try it for free?"

"The boss isn't here." Shang Xuechen waved his hand, "I'll talk about my cooperation another day. I'll take a stroll in your store first."

There is no reason not to accompany the customer when the business is delivered to the door. The clerk wanted to accompany Shang Xuechen in a daze, and asked him to leave a phone number so that he could call him when the boss came back.Shang Xuechen couldn't help it, so he had to leave the phone number, "Don't follow me, although I'm here to investigate, but I can't talk about things if your boss isn't here at the moment."

"Sir, you can tell me what kind of flower you want. I can recommend it to you, or you can first tell me what the theme of your event is, and I can roughly match it for you."

Shang Xuechen wandered around in the store, followed by the clerk, his attitude towards him was completely different from when he first entered the door.Shang Xuechen was wandering around on the first floor, thinking that it would be inconvenient for rich people to have a bunch of followers everywhere. He glanced at the lilies that had not yet bloomed in the vase, and he thought of the flower in front of Wen Ting's tomb. Flowers, asked the clerk behind him, "How are the lilies in your store doing?"

"Lily, the sales are pretty good. Like weddings, shopping malls and other activities often have a flower gate of lilies."

"Did you sell a bunch of pink lilies two days ago? Who bought it, remember?"

The clerk smiled a little embarrassedly, "There are so many people coming and going in a day, how can I remember this. Besides, many regular customers in our store call and order flowers directly for us to deliver."

"That's it." Shang Xuechen exhaled, feeling that it would be difficult to find that person from a flower shop, "Okay, don't follow me, I'll take a look. I won't order flowers from you today." , you have enough time to stare at me, why don't you introduce more to the new customers, besides, haven't I already left you my phone number?"

The clerk smiled politely, "Mister, I'll bring you a cup of scented tea. You can drink tea and stroll around casually. If you think it's good, you can order flowers from us, and the store will deliver scented tea."

Shang Xuechen said casually, "Okay, okay, okay."

The clerk said a lot of polite words to Monk Xuechen, brought him a cup of scented tea, and then left.Holding a cup of scented tea, Shang Xuechen walked up to the second floor and wandered casually, looking at all kinds of flowers and plants, when he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind, he couldn't quite hear what he was shouting, he thought it was an annoying shop assistant When he returned, he pretended not to hear, and was about to go downstairs with his cup in hand.

"Brother Chen, Brother Chen!"

The person calling him was getting closer and closer, Shang Xuechen heard that it was Brother Chen, and felt the voice was familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was for a moment, so he turned his head and saw that Xiao Ji ran up to him, "Brother Chen, I'm calling you, the more I call you, the more you run."

Shang Xuechen smiled embarrassedly, and gave him the scented tea in his hand, "It wasn't intentional, I thought it was the clerk who wanted to chat with me again, this tea is for you, so that you can feel comfortable."

Xiao Ji took the cup, looked like he was really thirsty, and drank the tea in one gulp.Shang Xuechen saw that he was drinking tea in a hurry, and kindly reminded him, "Don't be so hasty, be careful of choking. By the way, why are you in this flower shop?"

Xiao Ji smiled and put down the cup, "I came to this flower shop to buy flowers."

"Buy flowers?" Shang Xuechen came forward with a smile, and slapped him with his arm, "To decorate or to give away?"

Xiao Ji didn't dislike Shang Xuechen's physical contact with him like this, but felt intimate, and answered him honestly, "Give it away."

"Give it away?" Shang Xuechen looked him up and down. He didn't look carefully before, but now he looked carefully and realized that he looks good. The phoenix eyes are raised but not ostentatious, and there is another one on the lower eyelid that you can only see when you get close. The mole he got made him even more tender. Shang Xuechen was stunned for a second when he saw the mole, and then asked him half-jokingly, "You just returned to China, and you didn't expect to have a girlfriend."

Just as Xiaoji was about to open his mouth to explain, Shang Xuechen heard the voice of the clerk who greeted him just now, and felt a headache, but this time the clerk was not looking for Shang Xuechen.Shang Xuechen heard the clerk shout, "Young Master Ji, why did you come here suddenly? If you want flowers, you can call to order them, and we will send them to you."

Xiaoji smiled and shook his head, "I just want to come and have a look by myself, and pick out flowers." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Shang Xuechen beside him, as if he knew that he didn't like being courted by others, "Go do your work, I'll take care of you." After picking the flowers, I will find you to pack them."

This time the clerk didn't talk too much, he nodded and walked away. Shang Xuechen thought of Uncle Kang when he saw the clerk bowing and nodding.After Xiao Ji and the others left, he turned his head and smiled at Shang Xuechen, "Brother Chen, are you here to pick flowers too?"

"Oh, I'm just passing by to take a look. Didn't you just return to China? Why do people here know you so well, and you often order flowers remotely for girls?"

Xiaoji explained with a smile, "This restaurant cooperates with my mother's catering company. Although my mother is abroad, she opened a restaurant chain in China a few years ago, and often takes time to go back to China to check the business status. Sometimes the company holds activities, The flowers are all ordered here. So the people in this flower shop know me. I didn’t order flowers for my girlfriend, I just wanted to give them to my mother at night.”

Shang Xuechen patted him on the shoulder, and looked at him from top to bottom when he stopped, "You seem to be taller than Xiao Yuan. I didn't expect you to be rich and caring, and girls must be fascinated by you." gone?"

Regarding these words, Xiao Ji just smiled and didn't answer, and walked to the flower stand to pick flowers.Shang Xuechen only thought that there was a gap between his age and his own, and he happened to be in puberty, so he didn't like being teased very much.Cleverly closed his mouth, he walked to the flower stand and looked at the flowers.

"My mother has been very busy recently, and she seems to be in a bad mood. I want to buy a bouquet of flowers to make her happy." Xiaoji turned around and looked at Shang Xuechen, "Brother Chen, what about you? You came to the flower shop to buy flowers as a gift who?"

"I'm not..." Shang Xuechen originally wanted to inquire about the flower shop, and had no intention of buying flowers. He just heard Xiaoji say this, and remembered Ji Shuping's sullen look last night, and he had another event tonight that was destined to be unhappy. At the dinner, Shang Xuechen thought that maybe he could buy a bouquet of flowers to coax him, and his mood would be better.Shang Xuechen didn't say the whole thing, and directly changed his words, "Oh, I just want to give it to a friend."

"Friend?" Xiaoji twirled the petals in front of him, "The person who can send flowers is probably not an ordinary friend, but a special person in Brother Chen's heart?"

Thinking of Ji Shuping's face, Shang Xuechen unknowingly stretched his brows and eyes, looked at the flowers in front of him, "Well, it's very special. By the way, Xiaoji, what flowers do you think I can send to make unhappy people happy immediately? .”

"Brother Chen, all flowers are beautiful. The difference is who is sending them."

Shang Xuechen couldn't help teasing him again, "You kid, you talk in the same way. I think you are picking flowers for others to avoid trouble, that's all right, I will pick the flowers myself." After finishing speaking, Shang Xuechen buried his head Looking at the flowers in front of the flower stand, looking at the sign introduction and talking to myself, "Do you want to send roses?"

Xiao Ji followed him, "Gose wants to tell him. I love you?"

Shang Xuechen looked at the colorful roses in front of him and asked him, "Is this too straightforward? What kind of flower is this? The colors on a single rose are dazzling."

Xiao Ji glanced at the rose in the vase, "It's a rainbow rose. During the process of cultivating white roses, let the stems absorb professional flower dyes, and the flowers that bloom will be so colorful."

Shang Xuechen looked at the rose with his chin propped up, "It's artificial. It doesn't look as good as a pure color, but it's called Rainbow, which suits my heart."

Xiaoji looked at the colorful roses, "This rainbow rose also has another name, it's called happiness rose."

Shang Xuechen immediately decided in his heart, "Okay, I want this. By the way, Xiao Ji, what flowers are you buying?"

Xiaoji still looked at the colorful roses in front of him, "Brother Chen, why do you call this rose the Happy Rose? Is it because it is colorful? Does colorfulness imply that life is wonderful? Does splendor mean happiness? Too superficial?"

Shang Xuechen didn't understand Xiao Ji's question very well, so he only used Ji Shuping's theory to perfuse him, "Hey, they are all business gimmicks. Of course the flowers have nice names. Which flower has a bad meaning?"

Xiao Ji forced a smile, "Yes."

Shang Xuechen saw that the muscles at the corners of his mouth were stiff, and although he was smiling, there was no change in his eyes, his eyelashes drooped, and his eyes moved down, "Xiao Ji, is there something you are unhappy about?"

Xiao Ji shook his head, "It's nothing, it's just that I just returned to China, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to integrate into the environment."

"That's right. It's quite disturbing to go to a strange place." Shang Xuechen patted him on the shoulder, "Have you picked out flowers yet?"

"I picked it early and gave my mother red roses, she likes red."

Shang Xuechen rubbed the top of his head as if joking, "I'll praise you for your mother first, you're such a good boy."

Xiaoji didn't try to avoid Shang Xuechen's groping on top of his head, looking at the person in front of him and said, "Brother Chen, please send me flowers too."

"Okay." Shang Xuechen withdrew his hand in a good mood. He was holding Ji Shuping's card in his hand, and he could be as generous as he wanted, "I'll pay you for your roses."

Xiao Ji shook his head, "I don't want you to pay for my red roses. I want Brother Chen to pick flowers for me, just for me."

Shang Xuechen squinted at him, unable to figure out whether this was an emotional hint from him. Now that he has a master, he can't provoke him outside.

Xiaoji seemed to see the concern on Shang Xuechen's face, and smiled generously, "I have no other ideas, but I have never received flowers. Seeing how you choose flowers carefully for your friends, I think it would be great if someone chooses flowers for me carefully." Yes. In fact, sending flowers makes people happy. Apart from looking at people, isn’t there also the feeling of choosing carefully behind the scenes? I also want to experience once, watching someone choose carefully for me.”

"Have you ever confiscated flowers?" Shang Xuechen seemed in disbelief, "You can even send flowers to your own mother. Your tutor is so good, not to mention others, you must have received them from your parents once."

Xiao Ji turned to look at the red roses on the flower stand, "No, I have never received flowers, whether they were full of heart, or polite and courteous, never before. I actually sent flowers to my mother with some The meaning of flattery is that besides wanting her to be happy, it is more about hoping that she can see me more."

Shang Xuechen comforted him clumsily, "Maybe your parents only want to give you a good life. Look at you, you have no worries about food and clothing, you wear a famous brand, and people nod and bow to you when you go out. They may be busy giving you a better life." Good material life."

Xiao Ji turned her head to look at him, her eyes filled with loneliness, and asked him, "Is that so?"

Shang Xuechen is most afraid of others asking him what to do with a sad face. He himself is not a person who lives a good life, and he feels that he is not qualified to guide others. He just wants to hug each other with Ji Shuping to keep warm. Others He can't manage that much.Turning around and looking around, turning around and looking around, just to avoid Xiao Ji's direct gaze, "Okay, okay, I'll pick a bunch of flowers for you, don't make a fool of me."

Xiaoji looked at Shang Xuechen's impatient back, lowered his head and pursed his lips and smiled, this person is really easy to soften his heart.But does a soft-hearted person also mean empathy?

Xiao Ji raised his head, followed Shang Xuechen, followed him around the flower stands, looked at his straight shoulders and thought, this person is surprisingly warm and makes people want to explore involuntarily, but it is too late. Yuan Li'an said that he already has someone in his heart, what kind of person is that person?Xiao Ji was very curious.

Shang Xuechen was wandering casually, and as soon as he stopped and bent over to look at the flowers in front of him, he heard Xiao Ji asking behind him, "Do you want to give me this flower?"

Shang Xuechen was not very good at flowers, so he could only ask Xiao Ji, "This flower looks interesting, what kind of flower is it?"

"It's a snapdragon. Is Brother Chen going to give me a snapdragon?"

Shang Xuechen pinched his chin and looked at the flower in front of him. This flower is called snapdragon. Because of this name, he remembered the two fishes in Ji Shuping's living room. He still wanted to give this flower to Ji Shuping, "Your family is rich, Nothing is lacking, the name of this flower means gold and surplus, you are young, you can’t hold on. People say that when the moon is full, you will lose money, your family is so rich, you can’t get too much. This flower is not suitable for you.”

Shang Xuechen cast his eyes around, got up and grabbed a branch full of red fruits, "Look at this, this one is red and red, and there are small fruits on it, implying that you are young and prosperous. This It suits you very well."

Xiaoji glanced at what Shang Xuechen was holding in his hand, "This is North American holly, and when we tie flowers, we usually insert two of them as supporting decorations."

"That's it." Shang Xuechen saw the sunflower in the corner from the corner of his eye, "Then match it with sunflowers. Sunflowers make people happy."

Xiaoji glanced at Shang Xuechen, "Forget it, I don't want it anymore. Brother Chen looks so perfunctory, it's hard for me to force others." After speaking, he turned around and was about to leave.

Shang Xuechen hurriedly pulled him back, "You have a temper, kid. Who said I was perfunctory to you. Sunflower matches you very well. Look at your name, Xiao Ji, which means the first sunshine after the rain. You See how much your parents expect of you."

Xiao Ji paused, and what Shang Xuechen said just now echoed in his ears, "Ji" means the first sunshine after the rain.
