Chapter 273 The Iron Tree Blooms
When the elevator is stuck between two floors, you cannot get out rashly.
Because if it starts suddenly, it will be a tragic accident.
That’s how ghost stories come about.
After the maintenance master repeatedly emphasized that there was no risk, Su Chengyi and Chu Qingmian were dragged out together.
As soon as Su Chengyi returned to the ground and before he could stand firm, Xu Yang rushed forward with snot and tears.
"It scared me to death, Mr. Yi, but luckily you two are fine!"
". It's just a common elevator malfunction."
Su Chengyi tried to push his face Farther away, failed.
Han Bing was holding Chu Qingmian to comfort her on the other side. It was not easy to ask about the confession at this time.
It's probably cool now, I guess the flowers and cakes carefully prepared are still hanging downstairs.
But at this time, the smart guy seemed to be just worried about their personal safety and didn't care about feeling regretful about his confession.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! You two are not shocked, are you?"
The management staff of the shopping mall arrived belatedly at this time, but they looked very nervous. Cold sweat.
“Not bad.”
Su Chengyi nodded, not intending to cause trouble.
The management staff breathed a sigh of relief. If they encountered a difficult person at this time, things would not be so simple.
The young man in front of me looks very calm, and he is easy to discuss.
Then the manager smiled apologetically and said after careful consideration:
"Yes, yes, um, we will compensate the two of you for mental damage, you see"
"No need."
Su Chengyi shook his head and pointed to the sign next to it that said "Slip with caution."
“If the backup elevator is inspected less frequently and is not recommended for customers to use, it’s best to put a sign on it.
I don’t care, it’s not good to scare the cowards over there.”< br>
He then patted Xu Yang and signaled that he could leave.
The manager looked over and saw that the "coward" he called was holding another girl's arm and crying about what had just happened.
Noticing his look, the other person was stunned and seemed a little embarrassed.
Realizing that this was in front of outsiders, Chu Qingmian quickly gave up her habit of acting in painful love scenes.
She smiled in the classic elegant arc of a young lady, nodded slightly and said:
"Thank you for your hard work, goodbye."
What's going on with this inexplicable feeling of familiarity?
The manager scratched his head and looked at the backs of several young people leaving together towards the escalator.
Remembered.
When the superior leader came to inspect the work before, the tone and expression of the conversation with this girl cannot be said to be completely unrelated, but they can only be said to be exactly the same.
Is it possible that the eldest lady of some group came out to show off?
The management staff thought for a while and had no idea, so they had to give up.
“Come on, everyone, get moving and bring the sign that is under maintenance.”
It wasn’t until he was riding the escalator downstairs that Su Chengyi finally found the opportunity to ask Xu Yang about business.
"Sorry for the delay, what's going on over there?"
Xu Yang said "hurt", then smiled and waved his hand.
"Oh, what does this mean? Just be fine. There will be a chance next time, right?"
Lin Tong looked like he was hesitant to speak, but in the end he chose to remain silent.
After walking around a few times and finally going down to the first floor, Su Chengyi saw the bouquet on the counter at a glance.
A mix of tulips, pink roses and violets.
Da Congming’s aesthetic this time seems to be pretty good.
pity.
Su Chengyi thought for a while and suddenly slowed down without leaving a trace.
Both Xu Yang and Lin Tong were a little absent-minded and did not notice that he was falling behind.
He stood at the counter and looked down at the brightly blooming bouquet.
The white tulips are blooming very well.
Before Xu Yang and Lin Tong noticed it, Su Chengyi reached out and took out the most beautiful one, hid it behind his back, and quickly caught up.
"What do you say? I'm back to school, I still have homework to do in the evening."
Han Bing tightened her scarf, and the soles of her leather boots tapped slightly on the marble steps at the entrance of the mall. The crisp sound of urging.
Chu Qingmian was immersed in the story of the Monkey's Paw, feeling flustered all the way, and then belatedly remembered that the "Operation Matchmaker" she had planned had been in vain.
“Ah, back, back? Where are you guys?”
Su Chengyi met her look with a hint of help but said nothing.
Seeing this, Lin Tong had no choice but to answer:
"Then disband? I am very happy today! Let me call a taxi."
He lowered his head and started on his mobile phone Take a taxi.
Su Chengyi took a slight step back, leaned against the glass door of the mall, raised his foot and kicked Xu Yang's ankle.
The other party turned his head without knowing why.
Su Chengyi handed him the tulips hidden behind her without leaving a trace.
Xu Yang was a little surprised at first, but soon understood his intention.
Han Bing didn't notice the rustling movements of the two people here. She was busy helping Lin Tong enter the school address.
Su Chengyi took two steps forward slowly, first pulling aside Chu Qingmian who was watching the fun.
After Lin Tong placed the taxi order, he just looked up and knew Su Chengyi's intention, so he quietly moved a few steps away.
So when Han Bing came to his senses, the five of them had already formed a "follow the crowd" formation.
What are you doing again?
She felt a little funny for a moment, and just when she was about to question, a tulip was handed to her.
Xu Yang's face turned to the other side awkwardly, and the hand holding the flower stem trembled slightly.
Han Bing was stunned for a moment, and Xu Yang said slowly:
"I hope you are happy today."
The three people standing next to him didn't expect that he would ask such a question.
Su Chengyi felt that these words came out of nowhere. He originally wanted Xu Yang to use this flower to express his love.
Although the form failed accidentally, the intention to express my love was still there.
A bouquet of flowers is beautiful, but one flower is enough.
Chu Qingmian is relatively optimistic, feeling that although "Operation Matchmaker" failed, "Operation Icebreaker" can still raise a hand.
Lin Tong couldn’t explain clearly, but he didn’t have a bad feeling in his heart, so that meant it might not be bad?
Of course Han Bing did not expect Xu Yang to say this while holding the flowers.
But she was silent for a moment and actually smiled.
"Thank you."
She took the flower.
The ice-condensed air around him suddenly relaxed and became filled with warmth.
Although Su Chengyi didn't quite understand it, he could see that the situation had somehow improved.
The five of them stood together again, waiting for the taxi to arrive in the cold wind.
I don’t know who started humming a song first. There were no lyrics, just a vague melody.
Su Chengyi thought about it, and it seemed that it was the song Xu Yang chose for today's confession ceremony.
The name is "First Snow".
",
As a fool, I have nothing to say,
MerryMerryChristmas,,
Just saying MerryMerryChristmas, how are you doing lately,
,
Snowflakes are falling on this scarred heart,
,< br>
Let the white snow cover everything,
,
Are these tears or the white snow,
, Christmas,
You seem to be drifting away That Christmas. ”
Su Chengyi and Chu Qingmian took a taxi back to Beijing University.
"Su Chengyi, you gave Xu Yang that tulip, right?"
Chu Qingmian asked curiously.
"Yes."
Su Chengyi replied casually while looking at the passing scenery outside the window.
"How did you come up with this? Why are you so smart?"
Chu Qingmian was very happy because the few of them were back on good terms as friends.
Her happiness and sadness are always pure.
Su Chengyi withdrew his eyes and looked at her dimples instead.
Chu Qingmian suddenly felt a little shy when he saw her, so she chose to talk instead of making trouble.
"Humph, but you took flowers, why didn't you give me one by the way!
What if I want it too."
Commonly known as finding trouble. Su Chengyi seemed to be waiting for her words.
As if by magic, he pulled out a rose from the sleeve of his coat, handed it to her, and waved it slightly.
The petals of the rose have no signs of being broken and are still very beautiful. It is the light pink color that best satisfies a girl's heart.
Chu Qingmian’s ears instantly turned red.
Heaven.
Don’t be afraid of sweet words and sugar-coated bombs, but be afraid of the mountains and the sky and the earth and the iron trees blooming!
“.Thank you.”
——————————————
Catching up with the rush hour after get off work, it was already dinner time when I returned to Beijing University.
Miss Chu still had her homework to hand in, so she hurriedly bought two pieces of bread and went back to the dormitory crying.
Su Chengyi leisurely went to the canteen alone.
“Auntie, two servings of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, take them away.”
When passing by the porridge shop, I heard a somewhat familiar voice.
Su Chengyi glanced curiously. Li Tao was standing in front of the window, taking out his meal card to pay.
There was a "beep" sound.
“Brother Li.”
He paused and said hello.
"Hey, you're back?"
Li Tao turned around and raised a smile.
He looked not in good spirits, with thick dark circles under his black-rimmed glasses.
Su Chengyi raised his eyebrows and looked at the plastic porridge bowl in his hand.
“Who did you bring it to?”
"Bring it to Matthew."
The lid of the porridge bowl was a little loose, so Li Tao hurriedly raised it to the table and covered the box tightly again.
"How are they doing?"
Su Chengyi raised his head and glanced at the porridge shop's signature menu.
“I’m still not feeling well today. I’m lying down in the infirmary now and getting fluids. I’m just going to take a meal and take a look.”
Li Tao sighed.
“.”
Is it so serious to hold back the wine? How much was fed to me?
Su Chengyi was silent for a moment and replied:
“Wait for me.”
He stepped forward to swipe his meal card.
"Auntie, pack a bowl of eight-treasure porridge."
The two of them carried the porridge and walked to the infirmary together.
“Do you like sweet porridge?”
“Well, I’m not used to salty porridge.”
Su Chengyi had not liked salty porridge since he was a child. This confused Su Zelang from the vernacular area. In his mind, any vegetable could be used to make porridge.
But after he found that no matter how much he tried to correct and brainwash him, it was useless, so he was too lazy to take care of his son anymore.
The infirmary is not far away, just across a small road from the cafeteria.
When I arrived, the porridge bowl in my hand was still steaming hot.
Winter has just entered recently, and beds in the school doctor's office are obviously in short supply.
Li Tao and Su Chengyi turned left and right before finally finding Matthew's bed.
There are also people in the next few pictures, but they are all with the curtains drawn.
Looking like he was about to rest, Su Chengyi subconsciously slowed down his steps.
When he saw Matthew, he just nodded and said hello.
He was lying on the hospital bed with a pale face and a sling bottle in his hand. He waved with difficulty in response.
"Ahem, why are you here too?"
"I just returned to school and ran into Brother Li, so I came over to see you. Are you feeling better now?"
Su Chengyi put the porridge bowl Place it on the table next to you.
"It's much better. I kept vomiting when I woke up in the morning, and I felt like I was going to spit out bile!
I still feel a little hungry now."
Matthew smiled and sat up.
"Hey, comrades really still need to work hard! I didn't expect that I have such a bad drinking ability that I still have to practice.
I'm sorry, I caused you trouble last night. I'm really sorry. ”
Matthew put his hands together and apologized to Su Chengyi.
“Nothing.”
Su Chengyi didn't care about this and shook his head.
"To express my apology to everyone, I, Matthew, have decided to invite everyone to watch a movie together tomorrow, "Interstellar"!"
Matthew suggested with a smile.
“.”
Su Chengyi felt like she was going to vomit in the next second.
"Let's eat first."
Li Tao saw that he didn't seem to want to look at it, so he stood up, unfolded the folding table on one side, and put the porridge bowl on it.
“Wow~ Preserved egg and lean meat porridge, so delicious!”
Matthew looked really hungry, his eyes lit up after a bowl of porridge.
Su Chengyi was not in a hurry to open the packing box. He sat on the edge of the hospital bed and looked at the surrounding environment.
It didn't matter what he saw, the curtain of the bed next to him suddenly opened a gap.
A pair of very familiar and clever eyes were revealed.
The two looked at each other, and the other side narrowed his eyes slyly and opened the curtain.
"Why are you here too?"
Su Chengyi cleared his throat subconsciously and leaned back slightly.
The person sitting on the hospital bed next to him was actually Ye Ju.
When Su Chengyi asked this question, she raised her wrist and swung it around with a speechless expression. The needle was stuck on the back of her white hand, and a little red blood oozed faintly.
If it weren’t for the needle, it would probably have been handed to Su Chengyi for him to take a good look at.
"Brother, what do you think I am doing here?"
Su Chengyi's eyes only stayed on the red blood for a brief moment, and Ye Ju quickly retracted his hand and hid it out of sight.
Li Tao listened to the two people talking like they were quarreling, and seemed a little uncomfortable, so he opened his mouth to mediate and said:
"Mr. Su, Ye Ju is also from the Student Union, Propaganda Department."
Su Chengyi raised his eyes and took a look at her. Sure enough, he had the same pale face as Matthew in the bed next door.
Ye Ju waved his fist, seeming a little dissatisfied with his scrutinizing eyes.
"Hey, what do you mean by this expression? Are you looking down on people?"
Su Chengyi did not answer, but slowly changed the topic.
"Are you so idle? You are in the debate club and the student union."
"Burn your life, I am such a burning, burning, ambitious girl!"
>
Ye Ju started talking nonsense again.
“Mr. Su, don’t underestimate her. She has a much stronger drinking capacity than me, and she is the only one among the newcomers who can handle it.
She helped us take a taxi back to school. Thank you, squad leader. Fortunately, I have you, otherwise Brother Li and I would have to sleep on the streets. "
Matthew was so hungry that he didn't care about scalding it. He drank a few mouthfuls of porridge and then said aloud.
"It's easy to talk about it with a little effort. "
Ye Ju waved her hands gracefully like a heroine who does good deeds without leaving her name.
"So why are you here? ”
Su Chengyi asked in a shameless manner.
"The boat capsized in the gutter, and the old horse stumbled, okay!"
Ye Ju curled his lips in protest.
Su Chengyi glanced at her and stood up with his palms on the edge of the bed.
"What are you doing? This good man, you are not going to kill the patient, are you?"
Ye Ju was inexplicably flustered by his sudden approach, but kept talking nonsense.
Su Chengyi was too lazy to speak, and just put the unopened box of eight-treasure porridge on the table next to her.
Since he has the same symptoms as Matthew, he must have been vomiting for a day, so he should be very hungry by now.
"Save your energy to recuperate, classmate Ye."
