After leaving home, they regretted it.

The two of them were in a mess.

Feeling the burning gaze on her face, Gu Rumeng was confused for a moment.

"What punishment do you want?"

Gu Rumeng's voice was hesitant.

"Is this something that Sister Rumeng should consider?"

Qin Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and threw the question back.

"I..."

Gu Rumeng was flustered and at a loss.

She admitted that she had teased Qin Yi a little too much just now.

Now as the atmosphere became more ambiguous, she felt that the situation was not good.

She had to find a random excuse to get away with it!

This couldn't go on any longer!

Thinking in her heart, Gu Rumeng's eyes unconsciously moved to Qin Yi's lips.

After a brief moment of daze, she quietly swallowed her saliva and quickly restrained some absurd impulses.

"Xiaoyi... sister will punish you... punish you... to clean up the whole house tonight!"

"Uh... cleaning?" Qin Yi was stunned.

"Yes! Including the shoe cabinet, the bathroom, the kitchen, and under the sofa, all have to be cleaned. Sister hasn't cleaned the house for a long time. This is a big punishment. It won't be completed in a few hours!"

"Okay."

Qin Yi smiled.

Gu Rumeng didn't know if it was her illusion. At that moment, she seemed to catch a trace of disappointment from Qin Yi's eyes.

Is it because the punishment she arranged is too severe?

Or... Xiaoyi is actually looking forward to it just like herself just now...

Gu Rumeng didn't dare to think about it any more.

But there was a trace of regret quietly growing in her heart.

No! No!

Xiaoyi is still a child who has just reached adulthood!

It's too much for me to be so old and eat young grass!

How can we just get together and already think about kissing and stuff like that!

No!

At least we have to wait until Xiaoyi grows up a little bit!

Gu Rumeng secretly pinched the back of her thigh, using the pain to force herself to throw away those absurd thoughts, and said at the same time:

"Xiaoyi, it's getting late, you should go to school quickly, otherwise you will be too late for morning reading."

"Okay, I'll leave now."

Qin Yi nodded lightly, and when he walked to the door and changed his shoes and was about to go out, he suddenly shouted:

"By the way, Sister Rumeng, I bought you a small gift when I bought breakfast, and put it in the shoe cabinet for you, remember to take it when you go out!"

"Ah? What gift?"

Gu Rumeng was stunned, and the door was closed just as she asked the question.

Seeing this, she smiled helplessly, thinking that Qin Yi was afraid that she would not accept it.

But at the same time, she also had a sense of anticipation in her heart, after all, it was a gift from Qin Yi.

So she didn't even bother to wash up, and hurried to the shoe cabinet, and then the whole person was stunned.

I saw a packaged bright red rose on the shoe cabinet.

At this moment, Gu Rumeng's heart paused for half a beat.

She subconsciously covered her mouth, with surprise and emotion in her eyes.

"Xiaoyi..."

Gu Rumeng sniffed, and then carefully picked up the rose on the shoe cabinet.

Just now, she thought of all kinds of gifts, but she didn't expect it to be a rose.

Indistinctly, she had a picture in her mind of the boy who couldn't help but stop and choose roses for his beloved when he passed by the newly opened flower shop after buying breakfast.

"Thank you... Xiaoyi..."

Gu Rumeng whispered softly while holding the rose.

She liked this gift very much.

Although it is not expensive, one can deeply feel the meaning and the boy's thoughts contained in it.

Now think about it again, Qin Yi left in such a hurry just now, obviously not because he was afraid that she would not accept the gift.

But he simply wanted to give her a little surprise.

"Tonight... should I change the punishment?"

Looking at the rose in her hand, Gu Rumeng bit her lips, and suddenly some messy thoughts popped up in her head, making her ears blush.

But those thoughts gradually began to get out of control like a wild horse, and she was so scared that she patted her head and dared not continue to immerse herself.

"I have to go wash up!"

"I'm going to open the store later!"

Gu Rumeng put the rose in an empty vase, and then hurried to the bathroom to wash up to divert her attention.

...

...

Half an hour later.

Gu Rumeng came to the old street with a vase of roses.

She originally planned to put the roses at home.

But she thought about it

, she spent most of the day in the store.

And the roses bought from the flower shop would wither if they were not stored for too long.

Although she could seal the withered petals in a photo frame or make a bookmark as a souvenir.

But she just wanted to take a few more glances at the roses before they withered.

After all, this was the first time Qin Yi gave her flowers, which was of great significance, and she wanted to cherish them.

"Hey! Rumeng! Good morning!"

Suddenly, Gu Rumeng heard Kong Xinrui's voice.

The clinic was a little in front of the cake shop. Every time Gu Rumeng came to open the shop in the morning, she would basically bump into Kong Xinrui.

"Good morning!"

Gu Rumeng habitually nodded to Kong Xinrui, who was sitting at the door of the clinic eating breakfast.

But before she could take two more steps forward, Kong Xinrui rushed over as if she had discovered some big secret.

"Rumeng! Tell the truth! Where did you get this rose?"

Kong Xinrui's eyes lit up, her face full of excitement.

Seeing this, Gu Rumeng's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

She was so busy wanting to cherish the flowers Qin Yi gave her that she forgot that there was such a gossip king in the old street!

"I bought it myself."

Gu Rumeng didn't even think about blurting it out.

If Kong Xinrui knew that this rose was given to her by Qin Yi this morning, what would happen?

"Bullshit, why do you buy roses for yourself?"

Kong Xinrui snorted, obviously not believing it.

"I can't buy roses for myself? Who said that you can't buy roses for yourself?"

Gu Rumeng decisively bit it.

Anyway, no one can prove who gave this flower.

As long as you are stubborn enough, it's useless no matter how others suspect you.

"Rumeng, you are not being honest! If you bought the roses yourself, why did you smile so passionately just now?"

Kong Xinrui narrowed her eyes, her expression was meaningful.

"You are crazy."

Gu Rumeng was embarrassed and annoyed.

What do you mean by passionate?

Can you speak!

That's called being happy!

"Still pretending?"

Kong Xinrui saw that her best friend refused to admit it, so she snorted again:

"When I bought breakfast this morning, I saw Xiaoyi go to the flower shop next door!"

"When he came out, he had a bunch of roses in his hand. I even asked him who he was going to give it to!"
