The planning of Charles de Gaulle Airport was not good, there were long counters lined up in a row, Ji Manli found the taxi stand sign and stood there waiting.It was already night when I came here, and the danger is that the traffic near the airport will never worry about it.

It took a long time to wait for an empty taxi. Although Ji Manli was also a little afraid of being robbed by a taxi, but this place is unfamiliar, taking a taxi is the fastest way.

Of course, taxis are expensive here.

After handing the crumpled note with the address written on it to the driver, Ji Manli murmured for a long time and only said: "please..."

The driver just looked at the address, hummed, started the engine and drove away.

The surrounding area of ​​the airport was deserted, Ji Manli let out a long sigh of relief, and leaned back on the back of the chair.She couldn't and didn't dare to talk to the driver, so she quietly listened to the lyrical songs played on the car's speakers.The woman's voice was very gentle, and Ji Manli was glad that she slept a lot on the plane, otherwise she might fall into a deep sleep at this time.

The flowing road brought her to a house, the white paint on the wall was peeling off, revealing the gray wall.The wooden door with aging patterns and a small yellow lamp beside the door looked extremely warm. Ji Manli paid the driver a high taxi fare, climbed up the steps in front of the door, and lightly rang the doorbell.

After a while, someone opened the door.Ji Manli looked at the brown-haired woman with a friendly smile, but her mind was full of Bo Sheng's image, they were indeed mother and daughter, they were so alike.The woman was about to speak, but when she recognized the person, she abruptly took the French back, and said softly to Ji Manli: "Are you looking for Bo Sheng?"

"Auntie..." Ji Manli couldn't believe that she didn't even explain why she came, but the person in front of her said it before her.

"It's late, you come into the house first." The woman gestured for her to enter the house, and then closed the door: "Just call me mia, don't be so formal."

Her voice is very pleasant, different from Bo Sheng's deep and magnetic gentle voice, her voice is more like a water bed, which makes people fall into it and cannot break free no matter what.

Ji Manli hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to use the honorific title.

"Auntie..." Ji Manli followed behind the woman, put the shoes in the shoe cabinet at the entrance and arranged them: "Bo Sheng, she..."

"She's not here." The two walked into the living room, and the woman poured her a cup of hot tea. The cup was so exquisite that Ji Manli couldn't help but think of Bai Sheng again. She was so similar to her mother.

"She's not here..." Ji Manli almost dropped the porcelain cup in her hand.

She came here desperately, but Bo Sheng's mother told her that the person she was looking for was not here?Shao Lu wouldn't lie to her, and this place should be her place of residence. So, where did Bai Sheng go?

"Well, if you want to find her, you may have some trouble." The woman blinked: "She said she was going to Japan to relax, and she left two weeks ago, and said she was going to spend a month."

"To Japan...?"

Ji Manli didn't understand Bai Sheng's intention.

"This child," the woman sighed: "I think I have hidden a lot of things from me, and I also feel that I hide it well, and I don't want me to worry about her. But I know, I know that she likes to be sad in silence, and..." She Looking up like Ji Manli: "I also know why you appear...you are the one who makes her sad."

"Aunt...I..."

"No need to explain, this doesn't need to be explained," the woman shook her head: "I am responsible for my own emotions, this is a matter between the two of you, I have no right to intervene."

"So Bo Sheng...is in Japan now..." Ji Manli was a little at a loss, she thought that she would be able to meet the person she missed when she got here.

"Yes, but you can go to her." The woman smiled slightly: "I have chased you here, is it a waste to waste all my previous efforts? In fact, my daughter doesn't often mention people in her social circle at home, but that's not the case. It means I don’t know anything. I remember that Kashmir wool scarf. At that time, there was a post-it note on the packaging bag, which said Ji Manli. Since Bai Sheng came back from staying at your house for a few days, I have never heard of it again. Forgot."

"Auntie..." Ji Manli never thought that Bai Sheng's mother would take the initiative to bring up the past that should be unbearable.

"You don't need to worry about it. As I said, you are responsible for your own emotions. You have come here. Although I can't interfere, I can provide you with a good room and hot water for bathing."

"Then Bo Sheng...?"

"So persistent, I should have been persistent earlier." The woman smiled and said, "It's also the flowering period now, and she should be in the place with the most lavender, oh, she has been there before."

She had been there before, and Ji Manli's eyes lit up, remembering the music box that Bo Sheng put on the counter in the store.It was brought back from Otaru when she went on a self-help trip a few years ago.If it is the place where Japanese lavender blooms the most, in this season, it can only be Hokkaido.

"Since she has been waiting for so long, you should treat her well," the woman stood up, "follow me."

"Aunt...I...I understand."

"I also know, otherwise you wouldn't appear here. Although you are a bit meek, you may still like to think wildly, but you still step out, don't you? Bravery seems to be the patent of young people, and it doesn't apply at my age. Of course, it may also be that I took a big wrong step back then, and it will be too late to save it in the future."

Looking at the elegant woman in a black dress with her brown hair rolled up, Ji Manli couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, but since she can be so cheerful, it's a good thing.

The woman brought Ji Manli to a room, the simple style was very neat, after Ji Manli thanked her, she closed the door and threw herself heavily into the bed.But after a while, she got up again, dragged out her computer from her backpack, and went to the airline to inquire about the flight to Japan.It's a bit ridiculous, she just came to this strange country, but she has to leave immediately.

She didn't book the plane ticket so recklessly, but contacted Shao Lu first.

"Shao Lu, I'm in France...but...Bo Sheng went to Japan."

"...Really, she didn't tell me, so what do you do, do you want to wait until she comes home?"

Even through the screen, Ji Manli could feel Shao Lu's surprise and helplessness, she sighed in her heart, and replied: "No...I want to find her, so I need to trouble you to find out for me, look at Bai Sheng Where is she going, and where is she going, it's easier for me to book air tickets and rooms."

"...Thinking about it like this cost a lot of money. I can feel your determination. If determination can be measured by money..."

"...Shao Lu..." Ji Manli's eyes narrowed slightly: "I don't know what you guys think of me, but at least for now, I know I can't lose her. If I can use things like money as a boost, it's actually a blessing." It's a very lucky thing, after all, I am chasing something that money can never measure."

"I know," Shao Lu replied, "I told Bai Hua and Qi Xuan that they were waiting for the wedding. We know Bai Sheng's temperament, how could she not agree to you after you chased him."

"I see...thank you all, then if Bai Sheng replied to you, are you telling me?"

"Okay... oh wait, she replied, it seems that she has bid for roaming... qaq, so rich."

"so?"

"It is said that I will go to Hakodate to eat crabs the day after tomorrow, but now people are still looking at the lavender over there."

"So if I arrive in Hakodate these two days, I can see her...? She will probably appear in...?"

"Why are you going to this Crab Duke to eat... She looks so good, she should have an appointment, you can stop her at the door of the store hahaha and let her buy you crabs by the way. You can book a ticket and fly there quickly, by the way. Can you buy some dry goods for me?"

"Oh...it should be fine, what do you want?"

Ji Manli couldn't laugh or cry at Shao Lu's request. After all, she didn't go on a trip, and she didn't know if she had enough money.It's just that Shao Lu really helped her a lot in this matter, and she couldn't refuse.

"I want three French fries, white lovers, chocolate, dried scallops, dried kombu, bibimbap seasoning, lavender essential oil... well, that's fine."

Ji Manli silently glanced at her small suitcase, it seemed that it couldn't fit in it.

After booking a flight ticket to Hakodate Airport, I began to study the room specifications and prices of business hotels.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door, and Ji Manli knew it must be Bai Sheng's mother, so she quickly put down her work, stepped forward and opened the door.

The woman was holding a tray with a mug filled with hot milk on top. Looking at the dense mist, Ji Manli unconsciously warmed up in her heart.

"After drinking, take it to the kitchen to wash and put it aside. I'm going to bed first." The woman gave her a smile.

After Ji Manli took it, she nodded foolishly.

She thought to herself, if such a person was her mother-in-law, then she would be extremely happy.

It wasn't until three o'clock in the morning that Ji Manli finalized all the itineraries. Fortunately, she successfully bought a plane ticket, although only the more expensive business class was left.She rubbed her eyes tiredly, turned off the computer, took a hot bath, and fell asleep on the soft bed.

Before going to bed, she set the alarm clock on her mobile phone. Since she had to catch a plane, she could only sleep for four hours before returning to the airport.

Perhaps it was due to overwork and jet lag, but Ji Manli slept soundly and slept soundly.

The next morning, she changed into more formal attire and came to the living room. She wanted to say good morning to Bo Sheng's mother, and asked where there was a place selling cooked food nearby.

It's just that when she saw the smiling face on the sofa, she was surprised. Why did this person appear here?

"Good morning," the man ate a bagel with cheddar cheese sauce on his hands, and took a sip of black tea: "We meet again."
