After saving Bai Yueguang's substitute

【Xu Zhinian's Diary-3】

August 2020, 5, sunny

On my birthday, I received another gift from Mr. Jiang.

It is a brooch in the shape of a bird of paradise.

Mr. Jiang said: "I wish you freedom and unrestrained, happy forever."

I think, with Mr. Jiang, I am happy every day.

Because he loves me, and I love him too.

The recent work is still heavy and boring.

After processing the documents in hand, I asked Assistant Sun, "When can I have a vacation?"

Assistant Sun asked me, "What kind of vacation is it?"

I said, "It will allow me to travel."

Assistant Sun said politely, "Mr. Jiang, haven't you woke up today?"

I:"……"

1095

I opened the browser and searched: I am too busy at work and have no time to spend with my lover, what should I do.

The answers below are mixed.

One reply said: Falling in love is either a waste of time or money.Since I don't have time, I can only give gifts.

This reply got the highest likes.

I asked again: What kind of gifts do you usually give?

Someone replied: The most simple and rude thing is to send flowers. Although most people say that sending flowers is too cliche, they still can't help being happy when they receive them.

I was taught to put away my phone.

1096

On the way home, I saw a flower shop and asked Uncle Yang to find a place to park.

Uncle Yang asked me: "What's wrong?"

I said, "I'll buy some flowers for Niannian."

1097

The owner of the florist is a girl with a small round face. She looks very cute. Because she has a little baby fat, she looks very young.

"Do you want to buy flowers?" the florist asked.

I nodded: "Yes."

She asked again: "Looking at the appearance of the gentleman, it should be given to your girlfriend?"

Not a girlfriend, but a boyfriend.

I nodded vaguely, and asked: "What beautiful flowers are there?"

She said: "The best thing to give to your lover is naturally roses, but in winter, there are not many roses. You can pick some yourself and match them with other flowers. I will wrap them for you."

1098

I picked nine roses, and the owner of the florist said that this means long and long.

The florist also arranged some other flowers for me.

When passing a flower stand, I saw a flower with a strange shape.

The petals are purple and yellow, like a bird spreading its wings.

The florist said: "This is a bird of paradise, also called Strelitzia."

I said, "No wonder it looks like a bird."

The florist said again: "The flower language of the bird of paradise is freedom, chic and happiness. However, due to its shape, it is not easy to make a bouquet by itself. It can only be used as a decoration. Shall I help you make a few?"

I nodded.

1099

When receiving the flowers, Xu Zhinian was very happy but also a little surprised.

He asked me, "Why did you suddenly think of sending me flowers?"

I said: "If you want to give it away, you can give it away, do you like it?"

Xu Zhinian hugged the flower, smiled slightly, and said, "I like it."

1100

He asked Mrs. Wang for a vase and put roses in it.

Seeing the bird of paradise in the bouquet, he couldn't help reaching out and touching it, and said, "What kind of flower is this? It looks gorgeous and has a strange shape."

I said, "It's called a bird of paradise."

Xu Zhinian liked it very much: "I remember a bird with this name."

"Really?" I said, "I really don't know."

Xu Zhinian went on to say: "There is a category of birds of paradise called the King Bird of Paradise. It is said that they have very unique personalities."

I was curious: "How is it unique?"

Xu Zhinian looked at me and said, "They are very stubborn birds. They are loyal to their lovers. It is said that they will only have one partner in their life. Once the partner dies, the other one will also choose to starve and die."

I frowned slightly, didn't speak, just turned my head and kissed him.

1101

I asked Xu Zhinian: "Are you bored at home alone?"

Xu Zhinian shook his head: "No, I can read books and practice the piano at home, and I can also prepare for next year's exam."

I said: "Then your winter vacation life is too boring."

Xu Zhinian smiled and said, "It's not boring at all to wait for Mr. Jiang to come back every day."

I feel a little distressed, wishing I could spend more time with him every day.

1102

A few days later, Jiang Shengsheng came to the door again.

As soon as she was on vacation, she wished she could go out and roam around every day. This time, she came to ask Xu Zhinian if he wanted to go on a trip with her.

Xu Zhinian hesitated: "It's such a cold day..."

Jiang Shengsheng said: "It's because it's too cold, so I want to go to a warm place. We can go to the southern hemisphere to play, New Zealand or Australia, and Hainan is also fine in China."

Xu Zhinian was moved by what she said.

1103

He is afraid of the cold, and in the last two nights he has always hugged me unknowingly when he was sleeping, and shrank his whole body into my arms, as if he used me as a heater.

To be honest, it was a test of my determination.

Hearing that he could go to a warmer place for vacation, his eyes lit up, and then he turned to look at me.

1104

I said, "Go if you want."

Xu Zhinian asked me hesitantly, "Will Mr. Jiang go?"

I shook my head: "No."

Xu Zhinian showed a disappointed expression on his face.

Jiang Shengsheng interjected from the side: "What's the use of asking him, even if he wants to go, he probably won't be able to spare the time."

I gave Jiang Shengsheng a sideways look.

1105

Xu Zhinian hesitated for a long time, but still rejected Jiang Shengsheng.

Jiang Shengsheng was very regretful: "Why, I still think that traveling alone is too boring, and I want to find someone to accompany me."

Xu Zhinian said in a low voice, "I want to stay with Mr. Jiang for a while longer."

Jiang Shengsheng: "..."

1106

"WooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo(amy

I said, "My love is enough, I don't need you."

Jiang Shengsheng choked on what I said: "...the water thrown by a married daughter."

I raised my eyebrows: "Daughter?"

Jiang Shengsheng said, "My name is clay sculpture powder."

I said in a toneless voice: "Your fandom culture is really rich."

Jiang Shengsheng looked at me suspiciously: "I suspect you are mocking me."

"Don't doubt it," I said, "I'm just mocking you."

Jiang Shengsheng: "..."

1107

After finally sending Jiang Shengsheng away, I asked Xu Zhinian, "I really don't want to travel?"

"I do." Xu Zhinian said honestly, "But I want to stay with Mr. Jiang even more."

I watched him for a long time, and finally couldn't bear it, walked over and hugged him tightly.

1108

When I went to the company the next day, I asked Assistant Sun: "Is there any work I need to go to other places recently, preferably in the southern hemisphere."

Assistant Sun froze for a moment, probably never seen me in such a hurry to go on a business trip.

"No." He thought for a while, shook his head, and said, "But it's the end of the year, and the headquarters will send people to inspect the branches in various places. Usually, they will be handed over to the managers below. Normally, you don't need to go there in person. .”

I put the pen in my hand on the table and said, "I remember we also have a branch in Haicheng."

"Haicheng?" Assistant Sun was momentarily confused.

I said, "In Ning City."

Assistant Sun suddenly realized: "There is a branch office in Ning City, which was newly established this year."

"Arrange it for me." I said, "Take a few days and I will go to Ning City for inspection this year."

1109

Assistant Sun didn't understand why I was going to Haicheng suddenly, but he agreed anyway.

Soon, he squeezed me out for a few days after his busy schedule, just this weekend.

After confirming the time with me, he sent a notice to the branch in Ning City to get ready to receive me.

1110

When I got home, Xu Zhinian was stewing chestnuts and chicken soup for me.

He said that this soup is very good for the stomach, and he likes to stew it for me after knowing that I have a bad stomach.

I said, "You said that you would vomit after drinking the tonic soup stewed by Mrs. Wang, so you still cook this for me?"

Xu Zhinian rushed forward to cover my mouth, and carefully looked around: "Be careful not to let Mrs. Wang hear it, or you will kill me."

I was covered by him and couldn't speak, so I had to lick his palm.

He withdrew his hand like an electric shock, and after confirming that Mrs. Wang was not around, he said proudly, "It's time for you to experience my feelings."

I laughed out loud.

1111

The chicken soup with chestnuts is very delicious. I don't think I will get tired of drinking it for a few more days. Xu Zhinian is afraid that he will not be able to achieve his goal.

I took a sip of the soup and asked Xu Zhinian: "I remember your hometown is in Haicheng?"

Xu Zhinian nodded, then asked me in surprise, "How do you know?"

I put down the bowl and said, "Of course I know about you."

Then ask him: "What kind of place is Haicheng?"

1112

Xu Zhinian took a bite of his meal and said, "Haicheng is near the sea, that's why it got its name. The air quality there is very good, and there are many streets in ancient towns, so there are especially many people who go there to see the sea during holidays."

I asked with interest: "Then you grew up by the sea?"

Xu Zhinian said: "I don't live by the sea, but live with my grandma in an old street in a small town, which has a history of hundreds of years. I remember that there is a river at the mouth of the old street, and an arch bridge is built on it. Every time I pass by that When I was sitting on an arch bridge, I would always clamor to see the boats passing by below, but my grandma would hold my hand tightly, saying that I was afraid that I would fall because of fun.”

I said, "From your description, it seems to be a very interesting city."

Xu Zhinian nodded, with a nostalgic expression on his face.

That is his hometown, the place where he grew up, so the meaning is naturally different.

1113

After finishing the meal, I asked Xu Zhinian: "It's almost Chinese New Year, don't you plan to go back to your hometown to have a look?"

Xu Zhinian was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't have any relatives in my hometown. When I was in college, my uncles and aunts said that they didn't owe me any more, and told me not to bother them if I had nothing to do. Go back, and no one is waiting for me there."

I lowered my eyes: "That's it."

He paused for a moment and smiled wryly: "It's just a chance to talk, and I want to go back to visit grandma's grave. I haven't gone to her grave to offer incense in three years. If she is alive, she may be worried that something happened to me." .”

1114

I said: "Then this weekend, let's go to Haicheng to see your grandma."

When Xu Zhinian heard this, he turned his head and looked at me in surprise: "Mr. Jiang..."

I met his eyes, smiled, and said, "I'm going to Haicheng for a business trip for a few days. I think it's your hometown, so I can take you there with me. Let's take it as a trip with you."

The author has something to say: Birds of Paradise, the flowers represent Mr. Jiang’s blessings for the year, and the birds represent the love for Mr. Jiang every year.
