Finale

Qiuyao actually wanted to say, look, I have blossomed.

He was like a child who finally passed the exam, looking at Kazuki's peach blossoms with satisfaction.

"Mr. Lu? Are you still asleep?"

At this moment, the security guard who was watching the night suddenly made a sound, held a flashlight, and looked at them in surprise.

Lu Chunyan's clothes were all wet, standing in the rain, he looked more embarrassed than ever.He looked at the security guard with a calm expression on his face, "Where did this kid come from?"

"Child? Where did the child come from?" The security guard looked at him in confusion.Lu Chunyan was stunned, turned her head to look, there was nothing behind her, there was no one there, only peach blossoms blown down by the wind and rain remained.

Lu Chunyan's expression was stunned for a second, as if the ice had cracked a small gap.

Looking at his stern expression, the security guard felt a little uneasy, wondering if he had said something wrong.Fortunately, Lu Chunyan didn't say anything, but walked in from the patio, stood in the corridor, turned around and looked at the peach tree again.

"When did this flower bloom?"

"Huh? Blooming? It hasn't bloomed since I came here yesterday."

Lu Chunyan chuckled, "Oh, it's really a spring rain, and the peach blossoms bloom overnight."

He went back to his room and changed his clothes again, leaned on the sofa, and wiped his wet hair with a towel.Maybe it's because of too much pressure recently, and Tao Yuan's matter didn't affect him well, so the board of directors arranged for him a long, long vacation, and he couldn't go back until the turmoil subsided.

Lu Chunyan breathed a sigh of relief, threw the towel aside, opened his arms, and leaned back on the sofa.Hearing the sound of the rain, he thought vaguely of how the boy he saw just now disappeared suddenly. Could it be a hallucination?

It rained all night, and the lights in Lu Chunyan's room were also on all night.His sleep has always been bad, and this time he came out in a hurry, so he didn't take any calming medicine.At the beginning of the day, the dark sky brightened up a little bit, and replaced it with a cloudy blue.Lu Chunyan propped his head up and sat up from the sofa, and when he moved a little, the bones of his joints "clicked".After he sat down, he was stunned for a long time, with his index finger bent and his knuckles resting between his eyebrows, he stood up and walked out.

The rain has stopped outside, the air is very humid, and so is the ground.When he came out of the room and walked outside, the passing servants all showed surprise when they saw him, bowed their heads and said, "Mr. Lu, good morning."

Lu Chunyan nodded and walked directly to the backyard.

In the backyard, several gardeners came early in the morning with their tools. They surrounded the peach tree and sighed, "It's a pity that this peach tree is blooming. It's such a beautiful flower."

"It's not that Mr. Lu said he wanted to move it, and he didn't know where to put it back, and he didn't take it in the orchard."

"Dig it out and sell it for money."

Just as he was talking, when he was about to go down with a shovel, Lu Chunyan stopped making a sound.

The gardener was startled, his face turned pale with fright, for fear that what he said just now would be overheard by Lu Chunyan.Fortunately, Lu Chunyan didn't care about what they said. He looked at the peach blossoms clustered together, and he didn't know who he was talking to, "The peach blossoms are really blooming well."

Lu Chunyan pointed to the peach tree, and said to several gardeners: "Leave this tree here, don't move it." He may have been stunned, thinking about Nankey Yimeng last night, but he couldn't forget it.

In the morning, the kitchen started to be busy. The chef couldn't figure out Lu Chunyan's taste, so he made some Chinese and Western dishes.Lu Chunyan came out of the backyard and walked around the house again.He was wearing cotton and linen long sleeves, gray trousers, and his shoes stepped on shallow puddles. There were still crystal raindrops hanging on the treetops, and the sky was overcast as if they were about to fall.The weather in early spring is still cold, but the air in the suburbs is good, and Lu Chunyan rarely has such a leisure time to be in close contact with nature.

He walked a little far, surrounded by black and white tile-roofed houses, and many fields, all green at a glance.Going forward, there is a small forest, there is no road in the forest, and a river winds around this forest.Lu Chunyan stopped in front of the small river, it rained last night, and this morning the river was full of floating aquatic plants.He glanced at it, and when he was about to leave, he heard a cry for help.

Lu Chunyan was stunned, and immediately turned around, and saw a figure planted in the river not far behind, flopping about indiscriminately.

Qiu Yao thought she was going to be uprooted again, and she was so scared that she almost cried.

Lu Chunyan said that there is no need to move, this person has become a great benefactor in his eyes.When he saw Lu Chunyan going out, he changed his shape and followed quietly all the way. Unexpectedly, the road was slippery after the rain and he accidentally fell into the river.

He's just an ordinary peach tree spirit, if you pour a lot of water, he will be sluggish, and when he falls into the river, he shouts: "Help, help,..."

While crying and shouting, a pair of hands clasped his waist, pulled him up, and he was dragged out of the water.

With his heart still hanging in the air, a puff of hot air came from his ears, and with a laugh, he heard a nice and somewhat deep voice, "Little friend, why are you wet every time I meet you?"

Qiuyao raised her head, with water plants hanging on her head, her silly look made people laugh.

Lu Chunyan raised his hand, brushed away the water plants on his head, grabbed his sleeves, and wiped off the water on his face.

Qiuyao stared at Lu Chunyan in a daze, then stretched out her hand cautiously, and touched Lu Chunyan's palm with her fingers.He said softly, "Thank you."

Lu Chunyan himself didn't know what happened, and when he recovered, he had already taken his child back by mistake.He asked someone to find a piece of clothes for the children to wear. The clothes belonged to the son of the housekeeper in the house. He had passed the university entrance examination in another place, so he left all the clothes here.

Qiu Yao saw that the clothes she had changed were taken away, and then touched the fabric in her hands. The clothes he was wearing were all made of leaves, and they were indeed different from human clothes. The clothes felt much more comfortable to the touch. .Qiu Yao buried her face in her clothes and rubbed her face vigorously.

After Lu Chunyan changed her clothes, she sat on the sofa in the small living room, and the housekeeper looked at him hesitantly.Probably thinking that Mr. Lu went out early in the morning and slipped back, and brought someone back. He is quite handsome, but he looks underage.

When the butler was having a headache, he heard a few "da da da", and the pretty kid brought back by Mr. Lu ran down the stairs.The speed is not slow, like a bright spring light, igniting the twilight old house.

"Is breakfast ready?"

"Okay, everything is ready."

Lu Chunyan nodded, "Add an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks, I'll treat this kid to eat together." When he said this, he blinked at Qiuyao, his eyes were full of smiles, reminiscent of the one in "Leisure Fu". The phrase "beautiful eyes flashing, smiling without distinction", no wonder so many people know that he has no intentions, but rush to get close to him.

They walked to the dining room, and there was a long ebony table with several plates of delicate side dishes and pastries, as well as milk and rice porridge. Lu Chunyan didn't like milk very much, so he scooped up a bowl of porridge and took a sip slowly. .

Qiu Yao peeked at Lu Chunyan, imitating his movements, and picked up the bowl.As soon as he took a sip, his face changed, his mouth was hot and sticky, Qiu Yao put down the porridge bowl, picked up the cup next to it and asked, "Is there any cold water?"

"some."

The housekeeper poured him a glass of cold water, Qiu Yao took a big gulp, and he was relieved when the strange feeling in his mouth disappeared.

Lu Chunyan asked him; "Did you get burned?"

Qiu Yao pushed the bowl away in disgust and nodded.

"Then eat something else."

Qiuyao said yes, but didn't move her chopsticks.Lu Chunyan didn't pay attention either. After finishing his porridge, he said slowly, "You refused to go to school and sneaked out?"

Qiu Yao didn't understand what he said, but he didn't know how to say it himself, so he nodded along with Lu Chunyan's words.

Seeing him nodding, Lu Chunyan showed a clear expression, and asked again: "Why were you in my yard yesterday?"

Still the same sentence, "The peach blossoms are blooming."

When Qiuyao said this, there was a hint of wanting to be praised in her tone.But what did the peach blossoms have to do with him? Lu Chunyan didn't understand, and didn't want to delve into it too much, so he asked two questions and stopped.He thought, maybe it was the child of the person who worked in this house. Seeing the peach blossoms blooming, he thought it was beautiful, so he sneaked in.

Since he was a kid who played truant, Lu Chunyan thought about sending him out after dinner.He beckoned and asked the housekeeper to ask which family the child belonged to.

Lu Chunyan didn't eat much in the morning, he drank a bowl of porridge and ate two fried rice and was full.He looked at Qiuyao and saw that he didn't eat, so he asked, "What's the matter? Don't you want to eat?"

Qiu Yao shook her head, and said in a low voice, "I don't eat these."

Lu Chunyan was puzzled, "Then what do you want to eat?"

Qiu Yao licked her lips and said embarrassingly, "I want to drink the dew on the rose petals in the morning."

When he was in the orchard, he heard from the dandelions floating by that the dew was sweet and fragrant, and he really wanted to drink it.

Lu Chunyan was dumbfounded, feeling that he had heard it wrong, and asked again, holding back a smile, "What do you want to drink?"

Word by word, Qiu Yao repeated seriously: "The dew on the rose petals in the morning."

Lu Chunyan's suppressed laughter failed, his shoulders trembled, he half leaned on the chair, and laughed for a long time.

The butler went out and asked around, but he didn't find out who the child belonged to.Back in the dining room, I heard Lu Chunyan's laughter.He walked up to Lu Chunyan and whispered something in his ear.Lu Chunyan looked sideways at Qiuyao, and then asked, "Where do you live? Do you want me to send you back?"

Qiuyao has just transformed into a human form, so she can't leave her body for too long.He felt a little tired now, so he shook his head and said, "I'll go back by myself." He finished drinking the water in the glass, and it was still gloomy outside the window, and the sun probably won't rise today.

Qiuyao walked up to Lu Chunyan, and he pointed to the clothes on his body, "Thank you for giving me clothes." Then he pointed to the breakfast on the table, "And thank you for inviting me to dinner, although I can't eat these .”

Lu Chunyan wanted to laugh again, the butler looked at Qiuyao dumbfounded, and finally heard Qiuyao say: "Can I still come to play with you tomorrow?"

"Skipping class again? Not during the day, but at night."

Qiu Yao raised the corners of her mouth and smiled happily.
