038. Rescue
Fortunately, Gu Xiao's eyes didn't stay for too long, only two seconds, three seconds at most, but these three seconds were enough to make Zhang Siyi, who was guilty of a thief, break out in a cold sweat. Search: \(¨¨¨¨¨) to watch fine literature for free
Until the other party turned to leave, Zhang Siyi had not recovered from the frightened state, and he did not know whether Gu Xiao had discovered the problem.
Because of the affection of his classmates, Zhang Siyi didn't want to neglect Yu Rui too much. He went downstairs to invite him to dinner, and then politely dismissed him. After all, he had to go to work in the afternoon, and he was a man with a job.
Yu Rui guessed that she was a little bit shocked by Gu Xiao's words just now, and she was a little absent-minded. After that, she didn't ask Zhang Siyi for a collection of works, but Zhang Siyi felt that it didn't matter at that time. Seeing Gu Xiao's attitude towards Yu Rui just now, and remembering Gu Xiao's methods of governance that Bi Lele had mentioned before, he suddenly felt very relieved.
And his top priority is to solve the problem of the ball, so he doesn't have so much mind to take care of Yu Rui.
Zhang Siyi passed the day anxiously, and when he got off work in the evening, he secretly took a photo of a small ball, and took a taxi to the flower and bird market at the fastest speed. Regardless of whether Gu Xiao found it or not, the best way he can think of now is to buy a similar ball as soon as possible, first use the method of removing flowers and connecting trees, and then talk about it after he gets the award for the position of love.
The flower and bird market closest to the company is about a 20-minute drive away. It is open until 7:30 pm. Zhang Siyi has checked it all online and is in time.
After arriving, Zhang Siyi dashed in, groping all the way to the stall selling cacti, and saw colorful and odd-shaped cacti, cacti, succulents...
The uncle who was watching the shop was already planning to close the stall, but Zhang Siyi called out breathlessly, "Wait! Uncle! I want to buy a ball!"
The shop owner stopped his movements and asked, "What to buy?"
Zhang Siyi pulled out the photo on his phone and showed him: "What kind of ball is this, please help me see."
The owner squinted and looked at it: "It should be Jinsheng Maru." He pointed to an area behind him, "Just there, you can see if it is."
Zhang Siyi leaned over to compare and said happily, "Yes, yes, that's it."
Seeing so many healthy cacti, Zhang Siyi thought of the one that died, and couldn't help but feel a little sad, as if he was not willing to give up, he asked the shopkeeper for advice with a faint hope: "Uncle, one of my balls has turned yellow. , the roots are black and disconnected from the soil, can it be cured?"
The shop owner is a businessman and waved his hand directly: "Did you water too much? It is estimated that the roots are rotten and cannot be cured. Buy a new one. Jinsheng pills are not a rare variety, they are very cheap."
Zhang Siyi: "… "orz
After squatting on the ground and picking it out for a while, Zhang Siyi didn't pick out Jin Shengwan, who looked exactly like Xiaoqiu, and the shop owner was a little anxious: "Just pick a pot, you see, this is not very good!"
Zhang Siyi: "Too many." The pot of cactus was grown from several balls piled together.
The owner took another pot of individual: "What about this? Is this the head office?"
Zhang Siyi: "It's too big, and there's a tumor on it."
Owner: "… "
Zhang Siyi pointed at the "tumor" and said, "Can I just have this one above?"
Shopkeeper: "..."
The store owner turned around and entered the store. After a while, he dragged out a snakeskin bag and threw it in front of Zhang Siyi. It turned out to be full of balls about the size of small balls, densely packed together. , the wholesale price is one yuan, and the sale starts at 30!"
Zhang Siyi: "...Can I only have one?"
The shopkeeper said angrily, "Five dollars a piece!"
Five yuan is only five yuan, Zhang Siyi pouted, and picked and picked again, and chose a ball that was about the same size as a small ball.
When he was about to pay the bill, Zhang Siyi felt that it seemed a little unreasonable to buy only one seed ball for half an hour, so he chose three or four pots of colorful ornamental cactus pots.
The innkeeper's face finally looked better. After receiving the money, he helped Zhang Siyi pack the bag and said, "Go back and look at your ball. If it's not soft, cut off the rotten roots and let it dry in the sun for a day. Then let it dry in the shade for three or five days in a ventilated place, and put it on slightly damp soil, maybe it can cover the roots."
Zhang Siyi: "... "Fuck! Got tricked!
But knowing that the little ball was still alive, Zhang Siyi was very happy. He rushed back to the company that night and touched the little ball's body, but it didn't soften!
Just like someone who thought he was about to die found out that he was still breathing weakly, Zhang Siyi wept with joy.
In the dark, he picked out the healthy seed ball with the shape most similar to the ball and planted it, put the still-dead ball into a plastic bag, and sneaked away.
After returning home, Zhang Siyi put the colorful cactus he bought on the coffee table. Fu Xinhui saw it and asked, "When did you like to grow plants?"
Zhang Siyi: "Uh, it is said that this thing is anti-radiation, do you want it?"
Fu Xinhui smiled, placed the cactus balls in a beautiful shape on the coffee table according to the size and color, and said, "Just put them in the living room."
Seeing Zhang Siyi squatting on the ground carefully handling the rotten roots of the ball, he wondered, "What is this?"
After listening to the other party's explanation of the ins and outs, Fu Xinhui's mouth twitched and said, "I'm going, but it's just a cactus. Are you making too much of a fuss? Is that Gu guy so scary?"
Zhang Siyi thought to himself, hey, you don't understand... That's a ball that Gu Xiao has never given anyone! He is not only afraid of being known by Gu Xiao, but also of being known by his colleagues. In case those girls who like Gu Xiao learn that he has raised Gu Xiao's son to death, they will not let him die!
After the treatment, Zhang Siyi placed the sickly ball near the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, spread a piece of white paper on the ground, and solemnly told Fu Xinhui not to throw it away as trash.
Fu Xinhui was speechless. He found that since Zhang Siyi started working, it was as if he had gone to another world and was completely dominated by another man. (=_=)
For the next few days, Zhang Siyi kept an eye on the transplanted balls and everyone who was close to the landscape wall.
Fortunately, no one has found out. Near the end of the year, the company is very busy. Everyone is busy with design and drawings. Even Gu Xiao is in meetings every day. Who has the time to pay attention to what Zhang Siyi did to Xiaoqiu
Only then did Zhang Siyi realize that he might really be making a fuss.
... Hmph, it's all to blame for the group of female colleagues for raising the value of the ball too high, making him nervous for a while.
At the end of December, the company announced the list of this quarter's favorite job awards, and Zhang Siyi was also in it. He was convinced that he had successfully crossed the sea and was completely relieved.
The small ball that was placed at home for treatment was exposed to the sun and the wind. Now it has been buried in the soil by Zhang Siyi to cover its roots. It is said that the cactus likes a warm and dry environment, and I don’t know if it can survive this winter. But since no problem with the transplanted ball was found, Zhang Siyi didn't care too much about the small ball, and put it directly on the window sill in the bedroom.
On New Year's Day, a few friends in the group shouted to get together again.
Zhang Siyi's bonus has not been paid yet. It is said that it will be paid after New Year's Day together with his salary in December. His credit card has already been overdrawn, and now he is so poor that he doesn't want to go out at all.
Jiang Hai took a few days off and planned to take his girlfriend on a five-day trip to Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. Fu Xinhui also urged him several times at home and decided to go home. Before leaving, he asked Zhang Siyi if he wanted to go with him.
Zhang Siyi refused. Usually, we can go together. On New Year's Day, the family has a reunion dinner, but he is too embarrassed to join in.
Lying lazily at home for a day, and slept until the third day, Zhang Siyi opened WeChat and saw Ren Mengxuan complaining about Yu Rui in their group of five.
Ren Mengxuan: "Didn't she say she's only staying for three or five days? It's been ten days, why haven't you left yet?"
Su Yuan: "I don't know either, but I'm too embarrassed to drive her away."
Ren Mengxuan: "Just find an excuse to say you want to go back to your hometown!"
Su Yuan: "If I go back to my hometown, what if she lives in my rental house alone by relying on her classmates? I'm not worried!"
Ren Mengxuan: "This person is so thick-skinned! Then how long will she live?"
Su Yuan: "I guess she will go back after school starts..."
Ren Mengxuan: "...I'm also drunk."
Su Yuan: "Hey, I regret it now... Okay, let's stop complaining, what shall we eat for a while?"
Ren Mengxuan: "Din Tai Fung, I want to eat xiao long bao, does she want to come too?"
Su Yuan: "Sure, she's still wearing makeup, we'll be leaving in a while."
Ren Mengxuan: "Ah! I'm going to lose my appetite for this meal!"
Su Yuan: "Speaking of which, I know Din Tai Fung is still because of Yu Rui."
Ren Mengxuan: "Why?"
Su Yuan: "I remember last year when she returned to the UK for the summer vacation and told me that when she returned to China, her boyfriend invited her to eat Din Tai Fung, which was super expensive and super delicious. Those dim sums were usually eaten by celebrities. I've been eating pizza and sandwiches for a month, and I almost died of hunger~"
Ren Mengxuan: "Hahaha! Is Din Tai Fung expensive! Is it true? Beginners of Chopping Sentiment!"
Su Yuan: "The key is that when she said it, she felt like she was already squeezed into the circle of celebrities. Din Tai Fung is actually a relatively expensive fast food bar. If I were a celebrity, the level would be otto e mezzo."
…
Although Zhang Siyi didn't participate, it was funny for a while. Thinking of Yu Rui's sudden visit and embarrassment that day, Zhang Siyi thought the girl was sad again. In fact, Yu Rui is also a very motivated girl, but in the wrong way, hey, I don't know what kind of family environment would raise such a person.
Zhang Siyi closed the chat group, went to the circle of friends again, and found that he was swiped by the photos of Jiang Hai and Tian Yujing.
While he liked it on it, he was frantically complaining in his heart... Ahhh, damn it, it's so cruel to the dog!
Pointing and lighting, he suddenly swept a picture with a completely different style in a splendid travel photo.
Zhang Siyi's heart beat in his throat. After one month and eight days, Gu Xiao sent another Moments message—
It was a small cactus, and the text description was only five words:
The author has something to say: "Wait for your explanation."
