Chapter 895 Give up?
"Sorry, we don't have Epiphyllum in our store."
"Okay, thank you."
"Dingling bell~"
Xiao Xiao opened the door and left the flower shop.
Sensing Mayfly's somewhat depressed mood, Xiao Xiao tilted his head and smiled, "It doesn't matter, it's just the first one."
"We will find the night-blooming cereus."
"Yeah."
Mayfly quickly cheered up and nodded heavily.
Xiao Xiao kept walking.
In fact, I know in my heart that even though Epiphyllum is famous, there are very few Epiphyllums in flower and bird markets, let alone ordinary flower shops.
However, under the current circumstances, besides the flower shop, he didn't know where else to look for epiphyllum flowers.
Even if there is little hope.
As long as he persists, he thought, he can always look forward to good luck.
The street lights came on.
Xiao Xiao paused and looked up at the sky.
Before I knew it, night was approaching.
Although he visited five or six flower shops, he found nothing.
"Xiao Xiao."
The mayfly flies in the circle of light cast by the street lamp, its wings shaking off little bits of light.
I don't know if it was Xiao Xiao's imagination, but the color of the mayfly's body became lighter and lighter.
"Thank you."
"I'm happy."
meet you.
Therefore, even if "I don't find the epiphyllum, it doesn't matter."
To think that Epiphyllum is just a sudden idea one day.
Later, unknowingly, it became the only thought in its brain.
Maybe it's because the waiting time is too long.
It clearly knows that it only has one day to appreciate such a beautiful world.
But he still couldn't help but spend his time looking for epiphyllum.
Now, its time is really running out.
Epiphyllum, perhaps can only be its thoughts.
Although I am unwilling to do so, I am sorry.
However, it has nothing to do with its short life.
"Ephemera."
Xiao Xiao raised his eyes and said, "Are you sure?"
He couldn't say anything like don't give up and they will definitely find the short-lived cereus.
Because, he is not sure.
He wasn't sure either. Let Mayfly spend his last moments searching for perhaps hopeless epiphyllums? Or let it see the world?
Which one is the right choice?
Which is the choice that Mayfly will not regret?
This is a question only the mayfly can make its own choice.
No one can decide for Mayfly.
Although he knew this rationally, Xiao Xiao remained silent.
He thought of Mayfly's full expectation when he talked about Epiphyllum, and the little monster's gratitude and excitement when he agreed to help it find Epiphyllum.
Mayfly also seemed to be stunned by Xiao Xiao's question.
It was also silent.
For a moment, under the streetlight, people passing by could see a young man with his face slightly raised, not sure whether he was deep in thought or distracted.
Although it was strange, no one stopped in their hurry.
Just a glimpse.
"Mayfly, do you want to see Epiphyllum?"
Xiao Xiao broke the silence by speaking with a serious expression.
".Think."
Mayfly did not deny her heart.
Epiphyllum is the thought it had when it was still in the egg.
During the long period of waiting for the egg to emerge, the imagination of the epiphyllum occupied almost all of its thoughts.
So many beautiful imaginations.
It's so looking forward to.
How could it not want to see the night-blooming cereus?
However, the mayflies raised their heads and the sky was dim.
The afterglow is hazy.
Most of the sky is rendered in dark colors.
Only a corner of the horizon is still a large area of bright red.
It's beautiful and magnificent.
It was inexplicably moved, but also a little anxious.
Because it has not seen such a beautiful world carefully. So, is it looking for the ephemeral flowers without giving up, or is it enjoying the current scenery?
It confuses.
Xiao Xiao said nothing.
Mayfly needs to think carefully and then come up with the answer in his heart.
". Epiphyllum."
Mayfly lowered her head and looked at Xiao Xiao, ".I want to see the night-blooming cereus."
After all, I was still unwilling to give in.
One glance, even just one glance, it wants to see the epiphyllum that it has been thinking about for so long.
Epiphyllum, I wonder if it is as beautiful as imagined?
"Okay."
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows slightly curved, "Then let's continue."
"Yeah."
Mayfly nodded heavily.
The sky was getting dark, and the only good thing was that Xiao Xiao could act a little more boldly.
He shuttled through alleys and backstreets, occasionally climbing over walls when he reached a dead end.
He told himself, faster, faster.
However, every time I walked into the store full of hope, the answer I got was-
"I'm sorry."
"My store does not sell epiphyllum."
"Where are the epiphyllums? I don't know either."
"I'm sorry, I don't know the guest's situation."
The moon has risen.
The brilliance is bright and clean, as thin as cicada wings.
The mayfly's butterfly-like wings seem to be made of the purest moonlight, and the moonlight flows like frost, almost illusory.
The gilded lines that Xiao Xiao once saw on the wings have almost lost their brilliant golden color and become dull in color.
He gasped and clenched his fists.
No time!
"Xiao Xiao."
The voice of the mayfly was as ethereal as when I heard it for the first time, even a bit clear, "What a beautiful moonlight."
Xiao Xiao could hear a trace of imperceptible sadness hidden in it.
He frowned for a moment.
But the second before Mayfly looked over, his eyebrows relaxed, his expression was calm, and there was a slight smile in his eyes, "Well, the moonlight is very good tonight."
"Xiao Xiao, I'm so happy."
Mayfly said cheerfully, "You will be with me in the end."
"I always thought."
It will look for epiphyllum alone and look at the world. When the moon reaches the zenith, it will disappear under the moonlight.
Nothing bad.
However, the current situation makes it even happier.
Although, Epiphyllum still hasn't been seen.
"Xiao Xiao."
Mayfly stopped in front of Xiao Xiao's eyes, "Can I ask you one more thing?"
"What happened?"
Xiao Xiao didn't answer whether it was okay, but Mayfly knew that he agreed.
what to do?
I seem to be in a better mood.
Even the reluctance and regret of not seeing the night-blooming cereus didn't seem to make me so sad anymore.
"Please take a look at the epiphyllum for me."
Mayfly's tone couldn't help but reveal a bit of yearning, "I can't see it anymore."
"But if you see it."
"I will feel as if I have seen it too."
"Okay."
Xiao Xiao nodded, "I will."
"I will find a beautiful pot of epiphyllum."
"You'll love it."
".Hmm."
The mayfly flew up, "I will definitely like it."
It responded loudly, flapped its wings, and circled around Xiao Xiao.
Little bits of light are shed one after another.
This situation is as illusory and beautiful as a dream.
Xiao Xiao stretched out his hand, and a hazy light soon appeared in the palm of his hand.
"So beautiful."
He sighed softly.
The mayfly landed on Xiao Xiao's open palm.
Hearing this, its eyes curved into crescent shapes, "Thank you."
