Miss Mu and the Canary

September 9th was the day when Feihua left Wenjiang.

Working in the bookstore until noon, Bai Yan told Song Youcheng that she was on leave, and came to the train station to see Fei Hua off.

Fei Hua and Principal Zhang sat in first-class seats, and the waiting hall was also VIP class. Bai Yan walked all the way and saw Fei Hua waiting at the door from a distance.

Seeing her appearance clearly, Bai Yan almost burst out laughing.

Fei Hua stood there with her arms folded, instead of wearing the red and green cheongsam with high heels as before, she was wearing a white and blue school uniform with big sleeves upside down.The originally fluffy curly hair was clamped with a pearl hairpin, her long eyebrows were swept lightly, and she was holding a bunch of bright red flowers in her hand. At first glance, she really looked like a schoolgirl.

"What kind of fashionable dress are you wearing?" After walking a few steps, Bai Yan smiled and said, "It's really hard to find such a suit for you."

Feihua took her into the waiting room, and raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, but she still had that charming and flamboyant look: "Why, only female students learn how to drive high forks from us, and we are not allowed to be fresh and fresh, pretending to be girls." student?"

Principal Zhang at the same side said hello, and Bai Yan smiled secretly: "Which kind of child are you? I'm afraid that you have not yet entered the school, and you will be sanctioned by your principal first." Pointing to the flower in Fei Hua's hand, she asked: "What is this?" Which song is it sung, there are still tulips in this season?"

A single red tulip is delicately decorated with white chain link paper, but a bunch of rhizomes are falling from the root, which is quite unpleasant.

Fei Hua smiled and said nothing, while Principal Zhang at the side pretended to complain: "Miss Bai, you don't know how hard she is. In the blink of an eye, it's late autumn, and she's clamoring for tulips. The gardener at home has already said that September and October are coming. When it’s time for tulip sand to grow, where can I find it for her? It took a lot of effort to find it from a flower farmer in the outer suburbs, and in order to last for a long time, I even dug up the roots!”

Bai Yan smiled and said, "It's because the principal loves her, and she knows that this matter will not trouble the principal, so she dares to be so willful."

Principal Zhang smiled with satisfaction, said goodbye to the sisters without disturbing him, and went to sit not far away, leaving space for the two of them.

Everything that should be said has been said before, and the two of them are just joking and teasing at this moment, not seeing the slightest parting sentimentality.

Finally, the trouble was enough, and the two gradually calmed down.

"From now on, I don't know when we will see each other again. Take care of yourself, and I don't have any worries about this place anymore."

In the dark days, if there was not such a person by their side, I am afraid that none of them would be able to persevere and survive such an ending.

Bai Yan said in a low voice: "Anyway, he is also a person who came out of the hall, and he has seen how many people are warm and cold. This time you go, it is not only enough to enjoy the blessings. You should also be vigilant when you leave the escape route for yourself. .”

Looking down at the tulip in his hand, Fei Hua casually smiled: "Of course I know, Zuo is just the same as before, just live on."

"Beep - woo woo woo...'"

Not long after, the train came into the station, the whistle sounded melodiously, and the crowd came out of the station in a hurry, shoulder to shoulder, rushing into another journey.

Not far away, Principal Zhang had stood up, and the attendants on the side also picked up their luggage.

"Go." After tightly shaking Fei Hua's hand, Bai Yan let go and said softly.

Hearing the sound of the whistle, Fei Hua's calm expression suddenly became erratic. She stood up but did not leave, but turned her head to look at the door of the waiting hall.

The noon sun poured down on the ground, coating the figures outside the door with a hazy layer of gold. People came in and out, but she never saw anyone who wanted to wait.

"...Isn't it coming after all..." She muttered to herself.

"Fei Hua, Fei Hua?" Glancing at Principal Zhang who was looking down at his watch, Bai Yan pulled Fei Hua's sleeve and said in a low voice, "It's almost time, the person you should be waiting for is standing there."

Looking back, Fei Hua had restrained all her emotions, and she handed the tulip in her hand to Bai Yan: "Give it to you."

"Give it to me? Aren't you taking it to Peking?" Bai Yan was puzzled.

With lowered eyes, Feihua said: "It turned out that I was wrong. How could such a precious flower withstand the wind and sand in Beiping? If I don't leave it here, it will be fulfilled."

There was something in her words, but Bai Yan knew that it was Fei Hua who said it to herself, so she took the flowers without asking, "Take care all the way."

"Take care." Finally, after hugging Bai Yan, Fei Hua turned to Principal Zhang with a well-crafted smile.

"Let's go!"

There were many people at the station, and Bai Yan carefully protected the delicate tulip all the way out, and hailed a rickshaw to go back to the bookstore.

Back in the office, Bai Yan looked at Tulip, thinking about how to keep this gift well.

Tulip bulbs are bundled in layers with thin layers of damp gauze to provide moisture.But even so, I'm afraid it won't last long.When she gets home, she has to transplant it into the soil.It's just that although she can also take care of flowers and plants, she has never raised tulips. I really don't know why Fei Hua...

As she was watching, Song Youcheng walked by, saw tulips, and couldn't help saying: "Tulips? It's this season, why are there still tulips?"

Bai Yan smiled and said: "It is said that it was brought back from the outer suburbs. This one happened to grow a little later, so it has been kept until now."

Song Youcheng nodded: "It turns out that the flowers bloomed in the wrong season, but they are quite romantic. Does Miss Bai want to keep them at home?"

Hearing his tone seemed to be quite understanding, Bai Yan hurriedly asked: "Does Mr. Song know how to take care of tulips?"

Song Youcheng said: "I don't really know much about it, but Yi Ning likes tulips the most, and I helped her raise them together before. In this way, after you go home, Miss Bai, you have to wait for the tulips to wither completely, and then the bulbs..."

Song Youcheng explained the planting methods, and Bai Yan wrote them down one by one. After thinking about it, she asked again: "Speaking of which, Ms. Li hasn't come to the bookstore for several days. Are you busy with other things?"

Song Youcheng shook his head: "I don't know too well. I called her a few days ago, and she only said that she was not in a good mood, so I can't ask any more."

"That's right." Bai Yan nodded.

She is not a fool, so she can naturally sense Miss Li's feelings for A Xuan, and the change in Miss Li's attitude towards her and A Xuan during this time also shows that she must have known about them.

From her point of view, she naturally doesn't need to care what Li Yining thinks, but she has to take A Xuan into consideration.Axuan is a person who attaches great importance to feelings - just seeing that she and Song Youcheng can still maintain a friendship, if Li Yining and Axuan break up completely, Axuan will definitely be sad.If he could do something to make it up a bit, Bai Yan didn't mind.

Of course, she was not in a hurry.

After all, who would really like their rival in love?

When it was time to get off work, Bai Yan packed up her things and carefully brought the tulip home.

The moment she opened the door of the house, for a moment, she looked forward to seeing Mu Xing casually leaning on the sofa as usual, reading movie star magazines or financial reports.She could almost imagine the posture Mu Xing would use to turn his head to look at her, her tone, her eyes, the mischievous curls at the back of her head...

Just thinking about it is enough to make Bai Yan's blood surge up, into her heart, into her mind, arousing all the enthusiasm and love.

"Squeak—clang."

The door frame was caught by the door hinge, making a long creaking sound, which echoed in the dark and deserted home.

"Crack." Turning on the light, Bai Yan walked into the room and put the tulips on the table.

It's okay, it's normal.she tried to tell herself.

Axuan has her own affairs and the restrictions of the Mu family, so it is very common not to come here for a few days.

...But Ah Xuan has never been like this, there is no news for two consecutive days.

I didn't come to the bookstore to look for her, I didn't make a phone call, and I didn't send a single word from someone.

Sinking into the sofa, Bai Yan supported her forehead.

She just called Mu Yuan yesterday, and Ah Xuan was not sick. If something happened, it was impossible for Mr. Song not to tell her just now.

But she couldn't rest assured at all.

What's going on, what's going on...

Thoughts were chaotic, her heart pounded into her chest, her stomach hurt, and Bai Yan almost vomited.

Grabbing the phone, she quickly made a call that she had already memorized.

"Hello, this is Mu Yuan..."

Before the maid finished speaking, Bai Yan said: Hello, I am Bai Yan, I want to find Mu Xing, may I ask, is she there?

silence.

It was just a short silence, which almost broke Bai Yan's nerves.

Finally, there was another voice on the other end of the phone: Sorry, it's not convenient for the lady to answer the phone at the moment.

Without further euphemism, Bai Yan asked directly: "Why?"

The maid just said: Sorry, please contact Miss another day.

The phone hangs up.

Bai Yan put down the phone slowly.

"Why... exactly, why?"

But before she could study further, the door was suddenly slammed, and Bai Yan shuddered. Before she could think about the weird sound that came later, she ran over and opened the door: "Ah Xuan! You..."

The voice stopped abruptly, looking at the drunken person outside the door, Bai Yan was dumbfounded: "Li, Miss Li?"

Li Yining squatted on the ground with all four legs and no manners, raised his head in a daze, and smiled horribly at the doorknob: "Ah, Axuan? Ha, I'm not, what Axuan...I, I..."

While talking, she slid down and muttered inarticulately: "I am... Fei... Hua..."
