Overtone

Qi Ye's eyes fell on the dyed rose.

At this time, it is carefully wrapped in delicate floral paper, and there are still a few crystal dewdrops hanging on the petals, with gorgeous and lively colors.

Qi Ye didn't know what mood he was in right now, seeing Xiao Chen and the others hesitating to speak, he quickly cleared his mind: "Sorry, I'm going to smoke a cigarette."

After finishing speaking, he took the box and walked up to the rooftop upstairs.

At this time, it was three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and there were not many white-collar workers going home on the road, so it was quite quiet.Qi Ye leaned against the concrete wall beside him, staring at the flower for a long time.

Honestly, it feels kind of magical.

Ever since he was a child, whether it was the red envelopes stuffed by his parents, or friends giving gifts to each other, he always thought that Qian Fan had gone through it all, and he had seen all kinds of scenes.

But now facing this flower, he felt a little at a loss and didn't know what to do.

However, he knew that he had to take the rose back and plug it in quickly, because it would be bad if it was frozen.When the box was about to be closed, a metal pendant exposed a corner.

Qi Ye was stunned for a few seconds.

With a cigarette in his mouth, he reached out and lifted the wrapping paper underneath——

It's a violin pendant.

The size is not big, just bigger than the average sweater chain.On the right side of the front, a small rhinestone is delicately embellished.

Qi Ye picked up the pendant, and through the setting sun, he saw two very small letters engraved on the back of the violin——XC.

Not to mention, it's quite straightforward, for fear of not being able to tell who sent it at a glance.

Looking at these two letters, Qi Ye couldn't help laughing, and his mood improved a lot.After carefully putting the flowers and the violin pendant into the box, he bid farewell to Xiao Chen and the others and went home.

Along the way, he was a little absent-minded, thinking about what Zhou Qun said.

In fact, what this buddy said is very reasonable, it is indeed too early to give up now.

It may be a rumor made out of nothing, or it may be a campus legend, who can tell.

If that day really comes and sees Professor Xiao's fiancée, or if he admits to the death penalty a little earlier, then it's fine to stop.

Qi Ye walked for a long time on the way home.

When he was about to get home, he saw a jewelry store opened nearby, it was newly opened, and there was a flower basket with a happy opening at the door.

For this, Qi Ye was no stranger to it.

Although the houses in their area are old, they are all of the old bungalow style, but how to say, it may be because the houses are too old, but they are the favorites of various stores.

Keep the appearance of the old bungalow, paint the inside, and add some sentimental furniture and decorations, it is quite bourgeoisie, a good place to fall in love.

But Qi Ye is not in the mood to go shopping right now.

However, at the moment he passed the glass window, he glanced subconsciously, and besides his own reflection, there was another gadget that caught his attention.

He couldn't help but bent down and stared at it for a long time. When he came back to his senses, he saw the proprietress standing at the door of the store, smiling and looking at him.

"Sir, if you are interested, you can come in and take a look." The proprietress said, "There is a glass outside, so I can't take a closer look."

Qi Ye also smiled, and pointed to the window: "That's all, please show me."

After entering the store, he put the flower box tied with a ribbon aside, and then focused all his attention on the tray.

—A brooch in the shape of a ukulele.

It's about the same size as the one Xiao Cheng sent, with elegant wooden border patterns engraved on it, and it comes with a mini guitar case.

It looks like a good match with Xiao Cheng.

"This one is really suitable for gifting." The proprietress said softly, "The designer's limited edition is almost sold out in the store, and there are only two left."

Qi Ye said "um", and said decisively: "Then this is it."

The things he decided to buy have always belonged to the type of short, flat and fast speed.

If you meet your eyes, buy it.

It's a very heroic approach, so don't worry too much about it.

It was the same this time, he rejected the other discounted packages and only bought this brooch.When paying the bill, Qi Ye suddenly asked, "Will it fade?"

"what?"

"Will the color on it come off?" Qi Ye changed the words.

The proprietress smiled and said, "Of course not."

Qi Ye nodded and heaved a sigh of relief.

For some reason, I didn't feel anything when I asked this question, but when I thought about it afterwards, I always had a faint premonition, or in other words, there was always an almost terrifying intuition and premonition, which was affecting him and made him breathless.

Just when the proprietress was about to pick up the gift box, Qi Ye remembered the violin pendant that Xiao Cheng had given her: "Excuse me, can you engrave on the back of the brooch?"

"Yes." The proprietress nodded, and took out a manual from under the cabinet, "It just needs 15 minutes of waiting time now."

Qi Ye nodded: "Okay, then I'll pick one."

When you open the booklet, all you see are romantic popular love words, such as iloveu and the like.

Qi Ye frowned slightly, seemingly dissatisfied.

This subtle expression was also captured by the proprietress. She looked at Qi Ye like that, and came up with an idea: "French will work better."

As he spoke, he helped to turn the booklet to the last few pages.

"Jet'aime and the like are fine, and a lot of couples like to engrave this." She added, "Besides that, there are Tumemanques, which means I miss you."

Qi Ye was a little happy when he heard it. These are not all love words, and it's not bad to change the language.

So he smiled: "No, I'll think about it again."

After thinking for a long time, Qi Ye followed suit and carved a QY.

Watching the clerk with gloves on when he was still very happy, he always felt that he and Xiao Cheng belonged to spies.

To say that he doesn't have any romantic literary talents, if you can compare this matter like this, you can't get around these stupid adjectives.

"Wait a moment, I'll pack it for you later." The proprietress carved the words and turned her head. "Take a look at the gift box first. It's on the shelf. There are several colors."

Qi Ye said "hmm".He stared at the gift boxes of different colors on the wooden shelf for a while, and was about to choose a light blue box when he was suddenly attracted by a bunch of flowers.

"What is this?" Qi Ye asked.

"Ecuadorian roses." The proprietress glanced at them and smiled, "These are the only ones with a gradient of crushed ice blue."

Qi Ye lowered his eyes and touched it lightly.

The flower buds are lightly dyed light blue, like stars in the night sky, bright and gentle.

"There's no need for a gift box." Qi Ye suddenly decided, "Just help me get one of these roses, and then please help me..."

He paused for a few seconds, as if thinking about something.

After thinking for a while, he suddenly smiled again: "Help me hide the brooch behind this rose too."

"Also?" The proprietress was stunned for a moment when she heard that, "Then... do you need a signed card?"

"No need." Qi Ye said, "Don't leave your name, send it anonymously."

Indeed, he didn't need any special form of leaving his name.

This is their secret.

No one knows, it is a secret word between the stars and dust.

Seeing the roses gradually being packaged, Qi Ye suddenly felt that it was time.
