Sending Yuwei back to the villa, seeing her enter the villa, Qin Yue started the engine with peace of mind and went to another place.
He had long wanted to confirm that at first it might just be a simple doubt, but when all the question marks point uncontrollably in a certain direction, the so-called conjecture will gradually become a definite answer.
He drove to Peace Street and parked in front of the 24-hour flower shop.
The door of the flower shop was tightly closed, and a notice of sublease had been posted on the wall.
Qin Yue still remembered that the last time he came here was only a day or two ago, and in the blink of an eye, this store was about to be rented out.
He stood for a few minutes when a gentle footstep came from behind him, and he smelled a cold scent of flowers.
"I'm sorry, but the shop is closed today, but if you want to buy flowers, I can recommend other florists for you. The woman's gentle voice came.
He turned around, the two looked at each other, Qin Yue clearly saw a trace of surprise in each other's eyes, as if he didn't expect him to appear here.
“...... You are Qin Yue. Are you here to buy flowers for Yuwei?" she put away the shock in her eyes and replaced it with a calm expression.
The person in front of her was Xu Xinke, Qin Yue hadn't seen her for a few days, her figure had become a lot thinner, her face was dull and pale without makeup.
The whites of his eyes were bloodshot, and there were heavy dark circles under his eyes, and he should have slept well for several nights.
"Teacher Xu. Where are you moving to this store?" Qin Yue asked very calmly.
"If I don't move, I'm going to close it, and I won't open a flower shop in the future. Xu Xin could use the key to open the door of the store, and Qin Yue noticed that she came in a small truck, and it turned out that she was coming back to move things.
The flowers in the store were all sent away, and a few bunches remained, yellowed and withered, and were thrown into the corner.
"Why don't you open it. Teacher Xu's flower shop, the business is not bad, is it?Heping Street is just this flower shop, the business is bleak, and it can't be bleak, right?" Qin Yue entered the store, pretending to be bored and taking a look at it casually.
Xu Xinke just smiled and said: "Doing business is not that simple. In the flower business, if you can't sell it on the first day, you have to keep it for the second day, and if you can't sell it on the third or fourth day, the flower period is over, and the rest can only be thrown away. Too much attrition. Most of the customers who come to the store are old customers, and they can barely make ends meet by relying on the reservations of a few regular customers.
Qin Yue saw that she was carrying things, and also helped her, transporting the packed boxes to the truck one by one.
"So what does Mr. Xu plan to do in the future? Continue to paint and sell for money, or become an art teacher? "
Hey, you kid cares about me, and we haven't seen each other a few times, so why are you so curious about me?" she stood in the car, looking at him condescendingly.
There was a confusion in that look, and an inquiry.
Qin Yue smiled politely: "You are Yuwei's teacher and her former bosom friend." And I'm Yuwei's boyfriend, out of concern for this relationship, is there anything wrong?"
Xu Xinke was stunned, so she shook her head and said, "There's nothing wrong." But that's also my privacy, and I have the right not to answer.
"Of course.
Xu Xinke went up to the second floor, and Qin Yue followed her upstairs.
Most of the oil paintings upstairs were wrapped in thick vellum paper, except for one painting, still on an easel, which was a portrait of a young man.
The background color of the painting is gray and purple, and the man's face is pale, but it is not difficult to see that he looks sunny and bright, and his eyes are soft.
"Is the man in this painting Teacher Xu's boyfriend?" Qin Yue remembered in a trance.
Xiang Yuwei once told him that when Xu Xinke was young, she had a vigorous love, and the person she liked was a field photographer, and in an accident, the other party fell off a cliff and died.
Xu Xinke was devastated for this, which led to his later withdrawal from the art world.
It turned out that she always remembered her boyfriend, who was indeed an affectionate and dedicated person.
Xu Xinke looked at this painting, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, and silently took it off the easel and wrapped it in brown paper.
Her eyes kept falling on the painting, but her mouth was dreaming.
"His name is Zhong Yannan, and he is my lover. The swallow is a migratory bird that migrates from the north to the warmer south every spring. He would go out to photograph wild animals every year, often for months, and I thought he would come back as usual, but I didn't expect that after that parting, he would never come back...... He died on the way to migrate, and he couldn't fly to his spring......"
Xu Xinke's voice was low and hoarse, with deep exhaustion, like a bright and dazzling white rose, which finally exhausted all its vitality in the passage of time, became dry and yellow, and would break into a puff of smoke and dust with a light touch, and ...... with the wind
She froze for a few seconds, wiped the two tears from the corners of her eyes, and put the painting in her arms with the others.
"Sorry for saying something that made you unpleasant. In the past few years, Mr. Xu's feelings for Mr. Zhong have not changed at all. Haven't you thought about meeting other newcomers?" Qin Yue followed closely behind her, but his tone was a little aggressive.
Xu Xinke did not blame him for his offense, but responded to the question very bluntly.
"Swans have only one mate in their lives, and when they identify with each other, nothing can separate them except death. If one of them dies, the other will either die alone or die for it—" her cold voice told a slightly tragic story.
Qin Yue was behind her, and a word floated over faintly.
"Then Mr. Xu, are you planning to die alone, or are you planning to be martyred?"
"......" Xu Xinke turned to look at him, with hostility and vigilance in his eyes.
Qin Yue raised his hands and smiled mischievously: "Teacher Xu, I'm just joking, don't take it seriously." By the way, that black dress you wore last night was so beautiful. Perfectly highlights your graceful figure-"
Before his words fell, Xu Xinke had an extra toning knife in his hand, and the sharp tip of the knife was firmly against Qin Yue's carotid artery, as long as he advanced one more inch, he would immediately splatter blood on the spot.
"You already know. You also deliberately ran over and played this play with me?" Xu Xinke raised his Danfeng eyes and looked at him fiercely.
Qin Yue's smile was still on his face, but the fine sweat on his forehead still revealed his nervousness at the moment.
"Isn't what Teacher Xu said just now all sincere? You've done so much, you've orchestrated it all, what exactly is your purpose......
".
