Flowers bloom silently

Chapter 11 Money!money!money!
who-
An Keer, who was sitting in front of the window, was full of grievances, and her stubborn brows showed unprecedented sadness. She sighed, buried her face in her open palms, and gently closed her tear-filled eyes. He couldn't hold back anymore and rushed out.

Someone was knocking on the door, An Keer suddenly pulled away from her sorrow, wiped the tears on her face in a panic, took a deep breath, and then got up and went to open the door.

The person who came was Steward Dai. Out of respect, she also called him Uncle Dai like everyone else: "Uncle Dai?"

"Miss Ke'er," Butler Dai saw that An Ke'er's eyes were slightly red, and he didn't know that she had cried before. He regretted that he had softened his heart for a moment, and he agreed to An Ke'er's request to apply for the job, causing her to be scolded. "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I knew what was going to happen and let you do that job..."

"Don't say that," An Keer interrupted Steward Dai, "I did it my own way, you have already warned me. Think about it, no matter what money you need, you shouldn't come here to earn it. Xihe is right , I have disgraced them."

"Nothing, everyone doesn't think so. Ms. Ke'er is kind and approachable, and her attitude towards things is admirable. It's just that people have different values ​​and worldviews. Maybe in a certain environment, we have to accept the dominant party. The established rules of the game." Butler Dai had a lot of meaning, he hoped that Anke would recognize the current situation and try to avoid harm.

"I understand, this kind of thing won't happen again." An Keer nodded, as Xihe said, she was too self-righteous, since she came here, she had to abide by the rules here, at least in this house Is such that.

"Don't think too much about it. Here," said Butler Dai, handing an envelope to An Kerer, "this is the payment for weeding."

"I haven't finished pulling out the ones in the flowers." An Ke'er was not in a hurry to pick up the envelope, and smiled apologetically at Butler Dai.

"It's been removed very cleanly, and the remaining weeds are not in the way." Butler Dai smiled and motioned for An Keer to accept the envelope.

"Thank you!" An Keer accepted the payment for weeding and thanked her.

"Half an hour later for lunch, Mengmeng brought back some fresh figs from Moon Island. Would you like to have some before dinner?" Butler Dai asked her.

"No," An Keer asked thinking of something, "Will Cheng and Zimo come back for lunch?"

"No, they're very busy at work and won't come back until dinner."

"So that means it's just me and that guy Hee Hyuk at lunch?"

"Yes."

"Then I don't want to eat, don't talk about me, I think he won't have a good appetite if I'm around. I still have to go to work in the coffee shop, so I'll just eat outside."

"If you're in a hurry, you can eat first."

"No, oh, by the way, I probably won't eat at home after dinner, and I won't be back at noon when I go to school next week, so I don't have to do my part. If I want to come back, I will call home Let me know in advance."

"Is it because of work? Does Young Master Cheng know about this situation? If he asks, what should I say?"

"I'll tell him about the situation when I come back tonight."

After seeing Butler Dai off, An Keer put the few wind chimes and bracelets she had made in the past two days into her satchel, took her thin coat and went downstairs.Xihe was still sitting on the sofa in the living room, playing mobile games dully. Seeing that she was going out, knowing that she was going to work in the coffee shop, she pouted with displeasure.

After An Keer sent the wind chimes and bracelets to the L'S jewelry store by the beach, she bought a bag of bread at a bakery to satisfy her hunger, and hurried to the coffee shop to go to work.

"I heard that your working hours will be adjusted next week. Is it because of school?" Lili chatted with An Keer in a leisurely way.

"Well, I have gone through the formalities of repeating my studies at Diying High School, and I will be a transfer student next week." An Keer said as she turned around and poured the brewed coffee into a delicate ceramic cup, and served it with a delicious chocolate cake. Put it on a tray and hand it over to Lili.

"Then your wish must be Diying University." Lili said something, picked up the tray and delivered meals to the guests.

When Lili came back, An Keer had already prepared drinks and meals for another guest.

"Why do I have to apply to Diying University?" She had heard about Diying, a famous private university, but the public prestigious university was her first choice.Although Shiro also asked her to take Diying University as her first choice, she didn't intend to really follow his arrangement in everything.

"Students who come to Diying High School are either to enter Diying University or to get a letter of recommendation to go to a famous foreign university. If you don't choose Diying University as your first choice, then it is to go abroad."

"Oh, there's no third choice?" An Ke'er smiled extremely weakly.

"The third option will not appear in Diying High School." Lili smiled affirmatively, and continued to deliver meals for the caretaker.

An Keer shrugged, there are some things she can't help herself now, once she seizes the opportunity to change, she will definitely live in her own way.

……

Zimo dropped the paintbrush in his hand on the ground, stared at the work he had just finished, and smiled with satisfaction.He left the easel, took off his glasses, lay on the couch in the lounge, dripped eye drops for his bloodshot and dry eyes, and closed his eyes to rest.

The door of the studio was pushed open from the outside, Dai Mengmeng's gentle voice sounded: "Zimo?"

Zimo didn't open his eyes. He raised his right hand and waved towards the door. Dai Mengmeng quickly spotted him and walked into the lounge.Something was placed on the small table in front of the sofa by her, and then the sound of tidying up the house sounded.

"I brought some figs back, cut them up and put them in a crisper, right on the table." Dai Mengmeng began to tidy up from his surroundings. The studio has been open for two years, and Zimo is both the boss and the only employee. , because he was worried that the cleaning staff would take away the things he left everywhere as garbage. He has always taken time out of his busy schedule to clean up. I don’t know when Dai Mengmeng took over the work of cleaning up here, because he also likes to draw. Occasionally, I can help with work.

The potion moistened his tired eyes. He opened his eyes and blinked twice, feeling much more comfortable. Then he sat up, put back his glasses, and went to get the fresh-keeping box on the table. The figs were cut into beautiful moon shapes, and he carefully Well equipped with a fruit fork.While eating the fruit, he looked at Dai Mengmeng who had packed up from the lounge all the way to the studio on the other side of the glass wall.

Sensing that he was looking at her, Dai Mengmeng turned her head and smiled at him. He lowered his head expressionlessly, avoiding her, and continued to stuff a piece of fruit into his mouth.

"I saw Miss Ke'er when I came back in the morning. She is the prettiest girl I've ever seen." Dai Mengmeng was looking for something to talk to the taciturn Zimo while working.

Zimo raised his head slightly, glanced at Dai Mengmeng, guessing that she must also know that An Keer might be his fiancée, swallowed a mouthful of figs that were not so finely chewed, and then put the fresh-keeping box back on the table.

"Besides being pretty, what do you think of her?" he asked.

"Very good, independent and capable and easy to get along with." Dai Mengmeng answered his question without thinking.

"If it's normal, I think it's okay." Zimo curled his lips.

"Aren't you happy that she came?" Dai Mengmeng stopped what she was doing, stood on the other side of the glass wall and watched him.

"Suddenly a fiancée appears, can you be happy?" Zimo also looked at her.

Dai Mengmeng saw Zimo's troubles, and smiled at him, "Isn't it decided yet? You, don't think too much. Even if she is your fiancee, there is nothing wrong with it. What's wrong with her? I'm not good enough for you."

"That's not the problem."

"What's the problem?"

Zimo thought for a long time, but he didn't know how to answer, so he just kept silent.

"Speaking of which, even if you are unhappy, don't bully others. You don't know that Xihe made her cry in anger this morning. Maybe she is less happy about this marriage than you are."

Dai Mengmeng spoke softly, but when Zimo heard her say this, he heard a kind of power that he had never had before.

Zimo pursed his thin lips tightly, and he simply lay back on the sofa again, his brain was too tired to do any thinking, he closed his eyes, and fell asleep within a minute.

Dai Mengmeng could see that Zimo didn't want to talk about Anke'er, so she stopped mentioning it. The studio was messy, like a doghouse, and it took her a lot of time to tidy it up.

……

There is a private airport on the west side of Emperor Sakura Island. Most of the time, he enters and exits the island by private plane. With a new injury on his body, he originally wanted to stay at home and rest, but there is a very important business that requires him. Negotiating with the guests, he had to fly to city A early in the morning.The business talks went smoothly, and the two parties signed a contract immediately. After having a pleasant lunch with the guests, the matter came to an end temporarily.

The person who came to pick him up was not the driver, but Xihe.Xihe's unprecedented behavior confused Cheng. Sitting in the comfortable black Lincoln, the scenery outside the car window passed by quickly. He kept his eyes on this continuous and familiar picture, waiting for Xihe to speak.

Xihe was not in a hurry to express his intention to personally pick up his brother home, but turned the car into the downtown area, and then parked on the side of the road.

He half-lyed on the steering wheel, looked at his watch, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, and he stared at a pizzeria across the road.

"What kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd?" Cheng, sitting in the back seat, took out a can of drink from the refrigerator, opened it, and took a sip.

Xihe didn't answer Cheng, but pointed to the pizzeria.Cheng Cheng followed him curiously and stared at the shop across the road. Soon, he saw An Keer hurriedly appearing at the corner of the street. Mawei walked to the pizzeria without hesitation.

Xihe brought him here because of Encore?
Cheng narrowed his eyes and waited patiently.

About 10 minutes later, Anke came out of the pizzeria with a food incubator. There were several motor vehicles for deliverymen parked beside the store. She fixed the incubator on the back seat of a motor vehicle. , put on a helmet, pushed the motor vehicle onto the road, then rode across the road, and walked away from their eyes...

An Keer, who was squinting away, Xihe sat up straight and looked back at Cheng in the back seat, but there was no strange expression on the face of Cheng who continued to drink, which made him a little disappointed. He murmured: "You don't want to say something?"

Cheng brows frivolously, drank the drink in the jar, and urged Xihe: "Drink at lunch, I'm hungry, since you came to pick up the plane, be a conscientious driver, and send me home early for dinner."

Xihe waved her hands and shrugged: "Well, it's because of your connivance that she is so unscrupulous, she can do whatever she likes. It doesn't matter even if she holds two jobs a day, right? Then, you must not Would you mind her working as a weeder in her garden? This woman is crazy about money."

After all, Xihe restarted the car angrily, and drove towards the house halfway up the mountain.

Work as a lawnmower at his house? !
Cheng slightly turned his face away, under the fine hair, those royal blue eyes flashed a cold light of disgust.
