Chapter 227, [Begonia flowers bloom, good luck comes]
The chandelier in the living room exudes a bright light.
The moonlight reflecting outside the window is as light and misty as water.
On the balcony, Xu Ziyin was half squatting.
A pot of crabapple flowers in front of me is blooming quietly.
The leaves of Begonia flowers are dark green, with dense white spots on them. The back of the leaves is vermilion, like the sunset on the horizon, and the edges of the leaves are jagged, like the beautiful lace of a skirt.
To be honest, this was also the first time Xu Ziyin saw begonia flowers blooming.
If the Begonia flower is like a beautiful girl, then the leaves of the Begonia flower are her clothes. The thin leaf veins are evenly distributed and combined with a set of small saw teeth on the edge of the leaf to form this green pattern.
With the joy in his eyes undisguised, Xu Ziyin took out his cell phone and tiptoed to take pictures, while muttering softly.
"When crabapple flowers bloom, everyone who is lucky enough to see them will be blessed with good luck."
"Take a photo and send it to Feiyan tomorrow to share the good luck with her, hehe."
Xu Ziyin's soliloquy as if there was no one around him quietly fell into the ears of Qin Feiyan behind him.
Wearing pajamas, she leaned against the door, quietly looking at the cautious look of her younger brother, and listening to his murmurs, her frown gradually relaxed.
Did you treat him a little too much?
Sighing in his heart, Qin Feiyan said slowly.
"Xu Ziyin~"
Seeking the sound, Xu Ziyin turned his head in surprise and was about to speak, but he quickly shushed and put his finger to his lips.
"Keep your voice down, don't scare her."
Saying that, Xu Ziyin couldn't help but took Qin Feiyan's little hand and walked to the balcony.
Seeing the overjoyed expression of his junior brother, Qin Feiyan couldn't bear to let him go, so he reluctantly let him go.
…………
Looking at the brilliant flaming begonia flowers in front of him, Qin Feiyan's eyes were filled with joy.
Girls are naturally interested in all kinds of flowers.
Not to mention such a rare opportunity to see crabapples in bloom.
I heard that crabapples usually bloom in the early morning and the flowering period is very short. This was the first time for Qin Feiyan to see it.
According to her daily routine, she usually goes to bed early at this time, but today, she still hasn't fallen asleep because of Xu Ziyin's pestering.
Looking down at the big hand that was still holding his little hand, Qin Feiyan struggled a little and then sighed.
"Okay, now you've seen the flowers, can you sleep now?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Qin Feiyan clearly noticed a trace of disappointment flashing across Xu Ziyin's face.
Forced to smile, Xu Ziyin let go of her hand and said softly.
"Well, go to bed quickly."
"I can't sleep yet, I want to go downstairs for a walk."
Go downstairs for a walk?
Now?
Frowning, Qin Feiyan stared into Xu Ziyin's eyes.
After a while, he shook his head in distress.
"I'm really crazy too!"
After that, she got up and went back to the bedroom.
A few minutes later, she put on her coat and walked out of the bedroom again. Looking at Xu Ziyin who was still standing on the balcony in a daze, she said angrily.
"Didn't you say you were going downstairs?"
"Why are you still standing there?"
Hearing this, Xu Ziyin looked sideways and was stunned for a moment, then the joy on his face was beyond words and he hurriedly ran over.
………………
The night is already very deep.
Every household has extinguished the lights and fallen into sweet sleep.
Xu Ziyin and Qin Feiyan walked side by side on the quiet tree-lined path.
Looking at Xu Ziyin's silly and happy expression, Qin Feiyan tightened his coat on his shoulders, then stretched out his foot to kick the pebbles on the roadside and muttered.
"Like a fool."
"happy."
Grinning, Xu Ziyin chuckled.
"What's so fun?"
"I won't tell you, but today is the happiest day I have ever had."
Curling his lips, Qin Feiyan was too lazy to answer his question.
She felt that she must have been drugged by someone today.
How could a good leisure vacation suddenly develop to this point?
If she could go back in time to the morning, she would never have imagined that she would be walking with Xu Ziyin in the community at this time.
How ridiculous.
All the way to the artificial lake in the community.
The bright moon hangs high in the sky.
The sparkling lake made shallow ripples.
Sitting down on a bench by the lake, Xu Ziyin looked at Qin Feiyan's jade-like face and whispered.
"Not smoking..."
"what?"
"It's okay, I just called you."
Wu Zi rolled his eyes and Qin Feiyan lowered his eyes.
"Xu Ziyin, I think you are quite strange."
"Sometimes he looks very mature, and sometimes he looks like a child who has not grown up."
"Can you tell me which one is the real you?"
This divine unfolding was something Xu Ziyin never expected.
After thinking for a moment, he replied seriously.
"Showing your childish side in front of others is a sign of immaturity, but there is no need to hide your thoughts in front of the people you like."
"So do you prefer me to be more mature or childish?"
Hearing this, Qin Feiyan said casually.
"I still like..."
But as soon as the words came out of her mouth, she felt something was wrong, frowned and changed the topic.
"I like you big-headed guy, it's none of my business whether you are mature or childish!"
Huh.
I didn't expect my mind to spin quite quickly.
After laughing, Xu Ziyin raised his eyebrows proudly.
…………
There is wind by the lake, and there are words in the wind.
Holding his chin in his hand, Xu Ziyin looked at the slim figure of the senior sister next to him, and then said softly.
"Feiyan, do you have any plans for the future?"
"Intend?"
"Yeah, are you just thinking about your future life?"
future life?
Looking at the vast expanse of night, Qin Feiyan's clear eyes flashed with hope.
"Save enough money first."
"When I save enough money to travel abroad and time permits, I will bring my camera and call a few friends to take pictures of all the most beautiful scenery in the world."
This wish does not sound difficult to realize.
Just traveling abroad.
In fact, many people have this idea, but very few can actually put it into action.
There are always all kinds of troublesome things in real life that drive them to constantly lower their expectations.
When I got really rich and had plenty of time, I no longer had the inclination to travel around.
After hearing this, Xu Ziyin said gently.
"Isn't it possible now? Why wait until later?"
"It is spring now, and the scenic spots around the world are the most beautiful at this time. If you miss this time, you will have to wait until next year."
Qin Feiyan glanced at Xu Ziyin angrily and said speechlessly.
"You are a young master who was born with a golden key in his mouth. Can I compare with you?"
"Sister, don't you want to go to work?"
"Easier said than done."
The atmosphere suddenly fell silent.
After a while, Qin Feiyan smoothed his bangs that were blown by the night wind and stood up.
"Okay, now that you've sat down and taken a walk, can you go back to sleep obediently?"
"good."
This time, Xu Ziyin had no more unnecessary operations.
…………
…………
Return to the apartment.
Xu Ziyin and Qin Feiyan said good night and then lay on the sofa and covered themselves with quilts.
Qin Feiyan glanced at him, said nothing, and turned back to the bedroom.
…………
Around three o'clock in the morning.
Qin Feiyan was awakened by the urge to urinate. She put on her coat and walked out of the bedroom.
After coming out of the bathroom, she subconsciously looked in the direction of the living room.
In the dim light, Xu Ziyin was seen twisting and turning on the sofa like a maggot, and the quilt on his body had already slipped to the ground at some point.
Stepping forward quietly, Qin Feiyan bent down to pick up the fallen quilt from the ground and covered him again.
Then he stood quietly aside and carefully watched Xu Ziyin fall asleep.
Look at his brows, his resolute jaw, and his brows that are frowning and relaxing at times.
Suddenly, Qin Feiyan exhaled softly.
————
The next day.
It was already around seven o'clock in the morning when Qin Feiyan woke up.
Because I slept too late last night, my biological clock was delayed by an hour.
Seeing that there was not much time until work time, Qin Feiyan hurriedly dressed and got up.
After washing, I went to the living room. There was a folded quilt neatly placed on the sofa in the living room.
It looks like that annoying guy is finally gone.
Taking a long breath, Qin Feiyan felt a little uncomfortable for no reason.
Did you leave without saying a word?
The next moment, her eyes fell on the dining table nearby.
The tablecloth is covered with milky white, and several exquisite breakfasts are placed on the table in porcelain bowls. The daffodils in the vase beside it exude a faint fragrance.
And underneath the vase was a post-it note.
【Good morning non-smoker.】
[I didn’t call you because I saw you were so sleepy.]
[I slept too late last night. I guess you didn’t even have time to make breakfast when you got up.]
[It’s not okay to skip breakfast, so I cooked it myself. Don’t blame me if it doesn’t taste good.]
[By the way, I saw the crabapple flowers blooming last night, so today must be a lucky day. 】
【Finally, don’t miss me too much.】
[An unknown handsome guy stayed.]
Looking down at the sticky note in his hand, and then at the steaming breakfast on the table, Qin Feiyan shook his head helplessly.
"childish."
Even so, the corners of her mouth inadvertently curved.
Just at this time, the bright sunrise outside the window was extremely bright.

It was already around nine o'clock in the morning when Xu Ziyin returned to Suzhou.
He didn't have time to go home and drove to school in a hurry.
Fortunately, today's class was late, and he walked into the classroom on time as the bell rang.
After an exciting high-level mathematics class, Xu Ziyin was still lying on the table and fell asleep.
I went to bed late last night and woke up so early, so I naturally had to make up for the lost sleep time in class.
Seeing that the students were almost gone, Zhao Bing pushed Xu Ziyin awake.
"Old Xu, wake up, did you steal a dog last night?"
Rubbing his eyes, Xu Ziyin turned his head and glanced at Zhao Bing, then cursed.
"Can you wipe the shit out of the corners of your eyes when you say this?"
"Hey, don't I care about you?"
"Go, go, don't bother me."
At this time, Song Shi and Du Xiaoyu walked over hand in hand.
Looking at Xu Ziyin's listless look, Song Shi frowned.
"Xu Ziyin, you didn't rest last night, okay?"
Hearing this, Xu Ziyin said casually.
"I was too late last night because I was busy with something."
“I don’t know what I’m busy with every day, I’m just chattering away.”
Crossing her arms, Song Shi was not angry.
Seeing her expression, Xu Ziyin immediately became happy.
"Finally you are willing to pay attention to me. I thought you would never talk to me for the rest of your life."
Song Shi turned his head and said nothing.
Ha, what an arrogant woman.
…………
…………
In the noisy cafeteria.
Du Xiaoyu and others sat in the corner to eat.
Xu Ziyin and Zhao Bing were whispering to each other and bragging about boys' topics, while Du Xiaoyu was discussing the sports meeting with Song Shi.
Now there is not much time left before the sports meeting starts. It started in early April and is now close to the end of the month.
While chatting, Zhao Bing suddenly suggested.
"Tomorrow is Saturday."
"Should we go camping?"
"I heard that the flowers on Fangshan Mountain are blooming beautifully now. Do you want to go and see them?"
After hearing this, Du Xiaoyu and Song Shi had a hint of emotion in their eyes.
No girl can refuse camping and flower viewing activities, let alone being with her sweetheart.
After thinking for a moment, Du Xiaoyu said doubtfully.
“Is camping safe?”
Zhao Bing patted his chest and said boldly.
"Xiao Yu, I'm here, what are you afraid of?"
"Even if there are wolves, tigers and leopards, I will guarantee that they will never come back."
Pursing her lips and smiling, Du Xiaoyu looked at Zhao Bing lovingly.
Xu Ziyin felt nauseated.
What a shameless couple!
"Song Shi, do you and Lao Xu want to go together?"
At this time, Zhao Bing looked at Song Shi again and asked.
"Okay, tomorrow happens to be the weekend, so I can have a good rest."
"I just don't know if someone has time."
How could Xu Ziyin remain silent even after he had made it so clear?
Picking up a piece of lean meat and putting it into Song Shi's bowl, Xu Ziyin said with a smile.
"Okay, let's go camping tomorrow. We'll prepare things after school in the afternoon."
As he said that, he glanced at Song Shi again.
As if he knew what he was thinking, after struggling for a long time, Song Shi finally seemed to speak naturally.
"Then let's call Xianyu up together."
"I heard her say a few days ago that she hasn't had a good look at the scenic spots in Suzhou since she came to Suzhou."
Yun Xianyu?
Zhao Bing and Du Xiaoyu looked at each other a little strangely.
We are traveling as a couple, why did we call Yun Xianyu on?
But Song Shi had said everything, and they had no objection.

Magic City.
At the end of the day's work, Qin Feiyan sat at his workstation and stretched.
Just as she was packing her things to get off work, her immediate boss, Zhao Wen, walked into the internship department with a document.
Looking at her colleagues who were about to leave, Zhao Wen clapped her hands and smiled.
"Everyone, be quiet. I'm going to make an announcement."
Xun Sheng, a group of colleagues gathered their eyes in surprise.
"In view of everyone's good performance during this period, the superior department has decided that starting from next week, the department will arrange a seven-day trip to Europe for everyone. All round-trip air tickets and accommodation will be reimbursed by the company."
"If you are unable to attend due to something unexpected, please inform me in advance."
As soon as Zhao Wen finished speaking, there was a burst of cheers in the office.
Qin Feiyan stood in front of his desk and was stunned.
Seven-day trip to Europe?
Are all air tickets and accommodation reimbursed?
How is that possible? They are just in the internship department.
She suddenly remembered the sticky note Xu Ziyin left for herself in the morning.
【I saw the crabapple flowers blooming last night, today must be a lucky day.】
