Because the northern part of S City was originally a suburb and developed relatively slowly, Jiang Xuecheng drove for more than ten minutes before he finally found a flower shop.
Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan got out of the car, pushed the door open, and saw no one.
Su Wan frowned. This boss was too careless. He just left the entire flower shop alone. Wasn't he afraid that thieves would come and visit
Or is it that the business in the store is usually too slow and the boss has no intention of entertaining customers
Su Wan saw a small room separated by a green curtain inside the store, and thought that the boss might be inside, so she immediately shouted loudly: "Excuse me, is anyone there? Is the boss here?"
After shouting several times, no one responded.
Su Wan looked at the green curtain and hesitated for a moment, wondering if it would be too rash to suddenly rush in.
Jiang Xuecheng was more open-minded than Su Wan. He strode forward and lifted the curtain with his big hand.
After the green curtain was lifted, Su Wan immediately saw an old man sleeping on a rattan chair, with a suspicious liquid hanging from the corner of his mouth, as if he had dreamed about something delicious and was drooling in his dream.
Su Wan looked at the old man speechlessly. Seeing his leisurely sleeping posture, she really felt that the old man was very generous.
If this flower shop is really visited by a thief, I'm afraid that after the thief leaves, the old man will still be sleeping!
Jiang Xuecheng gently pushed the old man on the recliner and whispered in his ear, "Wake up."
Although he didn't wake up, the old man was probably annoyed by the buzzing sound in his ears and felt unhappy that his sleep was disturbed.
It's early summer now and there are mosquitoes already.
The old man closed his eyes and slowly raised his hand to slap a mosquito. Jiang Xuecheng dodged in astonishment and avoided the old man's hand.
When Su Wan saw this scene, she felt helpless but also a little funny. She couldn't help but wink at Jiang Xuecheng, joking that a person like him would be treated as a mosquito one day.
Jiang Xuecheng glanced at Su Wan's mischievous expression, smiled noncommittally, and immediately raised his volume.
The old man on the recliner shuddered and woke up—Uh, in such a deserted place, there are actually customers coming to buy flowers? !
Seeing two blurry figures in front of him, he rubbed his sleepy eyes, yawned lazily, and finally found out that they were a young man and a woman.
Well, they both have outstanding looks and good temperament, and it’s even more pleasing to the eye when they stand together.
The old man smiled kindly and waved at the two of them in a friendly manner.
"What do you want to buy? Although our store is not big, we have many varieties of roses..."
Young lovers, who are full of love for each other, will most likely buy roses.
Jiang Xuecheng glanced around the small flower shop, and finally his eyes fell on a bunch of white daisies. His pupils were deep and as cold as the night.
"A bunch of white daisies."
Hearing the cool and magnetic male voice, the old shop owner was stunned. He didn't expect that the man wanted to buy white daisies. Could he be going to Beiling Cemetery to pay tribute to his deceased relatives
The old man pointed to the baby's breath on the other side and said solemnly: "How about adding some baby's breath as decoration? Maybe the effect will be better."
Su Wan looked at the simple bunch of white flowers and said lightly, "Okay."
She and Jiang Xuecheng were going to see their deceased parents, so the bouquet couldn't be too bright, so white flowers were naturally the best choice.
Seeing that Su Wan agreed, the old man nodded and picked up the bunch of white daisies and baby's breath very neatly. Although he looked old, his hands were extremely dexterous.
In just a minute or two, he skillfully combined the two different bouquets to create a simple yet elegant floral design.
Su Wan's eyes lit up, and she felt that the old man was well versed in flower arrangement. She smiled gratefully at the old shop owner and said, "Thank you."
The old man replied with a smile, "You're welcome". This girl is not only pretty, but also very polite. Compared with the girl, the guy next to her seems like an ice cube and not very likable.
After Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan took the flower arrangements, they immediately paid the money and hurried to Beiling Cemetery.
Beiling Cemetery is one of the largest cemeteries in S City, with countless dead souls sleeping coldly under the tombstones.
Su Wan glanced at the majestic gate of the cemetery, and walked up the long marble steps with Jiang Xuecheng into the interior of the cemetery.
The entire cemetery not only covers a large area, but also has excellent greenery. It is only early summer now, but the intermittent chirping of cicadas can already be heard, adding a bit of vitality to the deserted and empty cemetery.
What Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng didn't expect was that they saw a familiar figure before they reached the grave of Su Wan's parents.
A middle-aged woman in a white dress stood in front of the stone tablet. She was holding a large bunch of white daisies in her hands. It was obvious that she had just arrived, just one step ahead of Jiang Xuecheng and the others.
The woman was wearing a pair of large sunglasses. Although they covered her beautiful, slightly upturned eyes, they could not conceal her elegant temperament.
It turned out to be Gu Zihang’s mother Du Huimin!
Although Su Wan's parents were good friends of the Gu family when they were alive, people have become indifferent to them since they are gone. Du Huimin is so cold to Su Wan, a living person, so why would she come to visit her old friend in the afterlife
Su Wan frowned and wanted to go up and say a few words to Du Huimin, but the man next to her stopped her with his hand.
Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng in astonishment. Just as she was puzzled, Jiang Xuecheng raised his index finger to his lips and made a gesture to Su Wan to keep quiet.
Is this a way to just wait and see
Although Su Wan didn't understand Jiang Xuecheng's intention, she still nodded to him and stood there silently without making a sound to disturb Du Huimin.
Du Huimin took off her sunglasses and looked at the stone tomb in front of her, her gaze finally stopping on the photo in the middle of the tombstone.
Because Su Wan's parents, Su Jianyan and Xie Lan, were buried together, the photo was a group photo of the two of them.
Both people in the photo are smiling, one is handsome and the other is beautiful, they look very well matched.
Sleeping together in life and death is a rare kind of romance.
"Jianyan, time flies. It turns out that it has been more than three years since you left."
As Du Huimin spoke, her beautiful eyes suddenly dimmed.
She sighed softly, then suddenly bent down and gently placed the large bunch of white daisies in her hand next to the photo in the middle of the tombstone.
Du Huimin looked at the cold stone tablet, clenched her hands, and her fingertips turned pale.
She has always been a strong woman, but today she realized that her emotions were out of control, and she did not try to control them as she did in the past.
Maybe it's because it's too quiet here except for the chirping of cicadas and the sound of wind.
"Ah Wan got married, but the one she married wasn't Zi Hang. Didn't you expect that?"
