Chapter 167 Childhood Friends (22)

How about taking the initiative and confessing your feelings?

Anyway, the atmosphere has come to this point, so it seems natural to confess.

Chen also thought about this possibility, but he didn't know if it would work. He and Duan Xu grew up together, and Duan Xu's favorability towards him was 85, so they should be in love with each other.

But for some reason Duan Xu never took the initiative to break the window paper, and Chen didn't understand whether Duan Xu wanted their relationship to go further or not.

Chen Ye swallowed under Duan Xu's gaze, and was about to speak when the doorbell rang.

"I'll open the door."

Duan Xu let go of Chen Ye's wrist and walked towards the door. Chen Ye breathed a sigh of relief and decided to think about the confession carefully.

It would be better to be more formal. When the time comes, prepare a flower and think of the right words to formally confess to Duan Xu.

Come to think of it, in so many worlds, he has never made a formal confession.

The door opened, and Duan Xu saw Sun Xiaoxiao smiling and Cui Mingzhe looking impatient outside.

Sun Xiaoxiao looked inside, "Li Guo, your brother Xiao is here, I bought a lot of things, come and greet me."

Chen Ye walked to the door in slippers and saw that Sun Xiaoxiao was indeed carrying several bags of things.

"He insisted on dragging me to buy hot pot ingredients early in the morning and asked me to bring the things to your place for lunch." Cui Mingzhe said silently rolling his eyes.

The two entered the apartment, and Sun Xiaoxiao looked at the food on the table, "You haven't had breakfast yet, it's already past nine o'clock."

Sun Xiaoxiao was raised by his grandparents. He has an incredibly normal schedule: he goes to bed at 9:30 every day and wakes up at 7 in the morning.

"Have you eaten? Not together."

"Eat, eat."

Chen Ye and Duan Xu were eating in the living room. Sun Xiaoxiao and Cui Mingzhe treated this place as their home and went into the kitchen to wash the vegetables.

"Eat less in the morning, we'll have hot pot at noon."

After washing the vegetables, Sun Xiaoxiao came out of the kitchen. Chen Ye finished his meal and sat on the sofa. Sun Xiaoxiao said, "Guess why I came to see you today."

Chen also supported it, "Why?"

"Didn't you check the calendar? Today is the Ghost Festival! Cui Mingzhe is a little scared to live alone in the dormitory. His classmates all went home for the summer vacation, and then came to find me. I thought the four of us could stay together."

Cui Mingzhe washed his hands and came out, "Get out of here, you're the one who's afraid."

Chen also remembered that Cui Mingzhe was very timid, especially afraid of ghosts. When he graduated from high school and went to a haunted house, Cui Mingzhe was terribly scared.

Cui Mingzhe walked to the sofa and sat down. "Obviously, Sun Xiaoxiao was bored and wanted to come to you. I'm afraid of ghosts? That was in high school. Now ghosts are afraid of my physique."

Sun Xiaoxiao covered Cui Mingzhe's mouth, "Shut up! You can't say that word today, it will attract them!"

Cui Mingzhe, whose mouth was covered, turned pale. He pushed Sun Xiaoxiao's hand away and asked, "Really?"

"My grandmother told me, so of course it's true."

Cui Mingzhe felt a chill down his spine, and suddenly felt chilled. Sun Xiaoxiao also had a serious look on his face.

Looking at these two funny guys, Chen couldn't help but smile.

"There are no ghosts in this world."

Sun Xiaoxiao, "That's not necessarily true."

Sun Xiaoxiao and Cui Mingzhe stayed until the evening before saying goodbye to Chen Ye and Duan Xu and going home.

After they left, the bustling apartment fell silent again. Chen Ye went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then returned to his room. He thought Duan Xu would ask him something and continue the topic from this morning, but there was no movement from Duan Xu until twelve o'clock.

The next morning, Chen went out to the company very early. He was a little absent-minded all day.

The phone interface stopped at Meituan, which recommended several flower shops, and Chen casually flipped through them.

Lin Luo, who was working next to Chen Ye, took a casual glance and saw the interface in Chen Ye's hand. He asked, "Are you choosing flowers for your girlfriend?"

Chen also shook his head, "No, give it to my brother."

Lin Luo was stuck for a moment. What situation required sending flowers to his brother?

But brothers who have a good relationship also send flowers to each other, such as on birthdays or holidays.

"My cousin owns a flower shop not far from our company. Do you want to go with me after work?"

Chen also said, "Okay, thank you for your help."

"Oh, it's okay. I think your boss thinks highly of you. Maybe he will offer you a job after you graduate. Then we will be colleagues."

Lin Luo and Chen Ye have been together for the past month and have come to like him very much. Not only is he good-looking, but he also does an excellent job.

After work, the two walked to the flower shop together. The flower shop was indeed not far away, just opposite the company.

Chen Ye still found it quite strange that he had been working in the company for such a long time, but he didn't even notice that there was a flower shop nearby.

It was a hot summer day and the flower shop was closed, but the air conditioner was on inside. Lin Luo pushed open the glass door with ease.

The wind chimes hanging at the door rang, welcoming the guests.

As soon as he walked in, Chen smelled the fresh and elegant fragrance of flowers and perfume. Since some flowers have no fragrance, the flower shop sometimes sprays some perfume.

The female shop owner in a light blue dress was watering the flowers with a watering can in her hand. When she heard the wind chimes ringing at the door, she turned around and saw Lin Luo and smiled, "Are you soliciting customers for me again?"

Lin Luo said: "Yes, sister, this is my colleague, he bought flowers for his brother."

The female shop owner's eyes fell on Chen Ye. Her pupils were slightly dilated, and there was surprise in her eyes. "Excuse me, are you sending a birthday bouquet or a holiday bouquet?"

Chen Ye had already told Lin Luo that he was his brother, so he couldn't say it was a confession. He thought for a moment and said, "Birthday."

"Are there any flowers you'd like to give to your brother? I suggest sunflowers, baby's breath, lilies, etc. You can even mix a few together."

Chen Ye glanced around the flower shop. There were so many kinds of flowers in the shop that he was having trouble making decisions. Finally, his eyes stopped on the gorgeous green roses. The green color looked particularly refreshing in the summer and immediately caught Chen Ye's eye.

"Please wrap me a bouquet of green roses."

It is not common to send roses to other relatives, but it does exist. Flowers are just flowers, but they are given different meanings by humans.

Cousin Lin Luo smiled and said, "Okay, I'll give you some baby's breath. You guys sit and wait for a while."

Chen also nodded.

He and Lin Luo sat on the chairs and waited. Cousin Lin Luo put down the kettle in her hand and began to wrap the bouquet neatly.

"Why don't you go back first and I'll wait for you."

Lin Luo said: "It's okay, I don't have anything to do anyway. My sister is very fast at making flowers."

After hearing what he said, Chen did not suggest that he leave first.
