Flowers bloom silently

Chapter 40 Watering the Flowers
After dinner, Cheng asked the driver to drive him and An Keer to Zimo's studio near the pier.

"Wow, so many paintings!" Swiping the card to enter the studio, Cheng easily found the light switch. As soon as the light was turned on, An Keer was stunned by the various paintings in the studio. Framed paintings are placed everywhere, making people dazzled.An Keer shuttled carefully among the paintings on the ground, sometimes appreciating and sometimes giving out admiration. "My God, are these drawn by Zimo?"

"Yes, he's been working on these all day long." Cheng walked through the showroom on crutches, and entered the office separated by a glass wall. He found Zimo's latest sketchbook on the desk, and sat down. Looking slowly on the sofa.

The studio is not big, so An Keer quickly found the utility room, where she found a kettle for watering the flowers, a small shovel for turning the soil, and a few bags of flower fertilizer.She filled the jug and carefully watered the potted plants in the studio and on the windowsill.

"There's still more in the backyard." Cheng Shi'er would peek at Anke'er watering the flowers, and seeing that her potted plants were almost watered, she pointed to the back door of the studio to remind her.

"Oh!" An Keer responded, carrying the kettle and unlocking the back door, the door was pushed open, and the light from the room combined with the bright moonlight illuminated the green of the garden. "Wow-" An Keer only sighed at this studio. The garden in the backyard is definitely much larger than that in the living room. It is full of various flowers, and the fig trees are swaying in the sea breeze. The green branches and leaves, the sweet-scented osmanthus trees are in full bloom, and the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus in the garden is intoxicating.

An Keer shuttled among the flowers and plants, watering them, and following the light, she also pulled out the weeds among the flowers.While watering the fig tree, she found a clearing on the right side of the tree. The soil had been turned over, but it seemed that it hadn't been moved for a long time. There were a few bunches of tall weeds sprouting from it.

She went in to remove the grass, and then went into the house. Cheng was still sitting on the sofa in the office reading the sketchbook. He had been staring at a page without turning it over for a long time. When she walked to the door and talked to him When he was talking, he was taken aback when he was in a daze, and hurriedly closed the sketchbook.

"Are you... all right?" An Keer was so panicked when he saw Cheng for the first time, as if he was looking at something shady and then someone caught him.When An Keer walked towards him, she couldn't help but glanced at the sketchbook in his hand curiously.

"It's okay, what did you just say?" Cheng's eyes flickered as he stared at An Keer. He was so engrossed that he didn't realize that An Keer would come in at this time.

"Oh, I just want to know what's going on with the open space in Zimo's backyard? Looking at the garden full of flowers, plants and trees, he is planting and taking care of it with great care. How could he leave such a large open space alone? No planting, What a pity." An Keer walked to the crystal table across from her and the city, and stopped.

"Then I don't know." Cheng didn't care about everything, he shook his head, stood up with the arm of the sofa, walked to the desk, and put the sketchbook back to its original place. "I think it may be that the business has increased recently, and the original plan to plant was put aside. Zimo's temperament is very similar to that of my mother, and he likes painting and gardening. Since I asked you to come and take care of those flowers and plants, you can Call and ask about the land, if you're that concerned."

An Keer shrugged her shoulders and readily accepted Cheng's suggestion. She would contact Zimo when she had time. Looking around, she asked beseechingly, "Would you like to help clean up this place? It's so messy."

"You must not do this. You don't understand the situation. It looks like a mess. Such materials or works are in places Zimo is familiar with. Once you do it, he will be miserable when he comes back. When it needs to be cleaned up, Mengmeng will came."

"Is that so." An Keer nodded, and asked jokingly, "Zimo only gets close to Mengmeng, and they seem to be a good match."

"Maybe it's because we grew up together. Mengmeng's girl is gentle and sensible, and Zimo likes to cling to her like a little tail. It's not possible for two people with a close relationship to develop in that direction." Great." Cheng turned around and leaned against the desk to look at An Keer, she curled her lips in disapproval of what he said. "They don't look like a couple. Besides, as a fiancee, are you willing to tolerate such a thing?"

"Whether I am Zimo's fiancée is still uncertain. Even if it is, the marriage will be dissolved. Why can't I tolerate it? It's too late to be happy for them. However, if this is true, as Mengmeng's friend, I I am worried about her, judging from your attitude towards me, it is inevitable that she will suffer the same grievances in the future." Speaking of this, An Keer observed a complex light in Cheng's eyes - which proved her guess That's right.Thinking of the scene when Mengmeng gave Zimo a lollipop in the coffee shop, she couldn't help feeling very sad. Mengmeng liked Zimo, she could see it, but Zimo seemed...Luohua was intentional and ruthless.I hope she was wrong about the latter.

"It's amazing how people get along with each other. Don't be fooled by appearances. At least I think I'm dealing with you seriously. It doesn't matter whether you were born as a commoner or not." Miss him, he declared.

An Keer smiled, she wasn't sure if what Cheng said was true, but compared to Xihe's bad attitude, Cheng treated her politely most of the time.

"Are you done?" Cheng Jian An Keer smiled and asked without saying a word, changing the subject.

"Yeah. It's all done. I'll come back tomorrow after school." An Keer nodded.

"Then let's go!" Cheng left the desk and started walking on crutches.

Before leaving the studio, An Keer checked the doors and windows, and left with Cheng.

"Thank you for walking with me!" In the car, An Keer said to Cheng who was sitting beside her.

"I take it for a walk after dinner." Cheng smiled, and turned his face to look at the scenery outside the car - his home is really not that big, how long would it take to drive around such a courtyard?

An Keer laughed again, and shifted her gaze from the city to the scenery on the other side of the car. In front of the road, Hao Xuan was sitting on a lounge chair drinking Coke. When the car passed him steadily, she couldn't help but She tucked her body into the back seat to avoid him, and when the car whizzed by, she realized that her nervousness was unnecessary. The tinted glass windows completely covered the situation in the car, and Haoxuan outside couldn't see her at all.

She breathed a sigh of relief, and unconsciously raised her eyes to look at the city around her. His attention was still on the other side of the car, and he didn't see Haoxuan or her abnormal behavior.

Thinking of Yang Xueer's exposure of her getting close to Haoxuan during the dinner, Cheng showed a surprisingly indifferent attitude.This can't help but make An Keer puzzled: Didn't he forbid her to associate with other opposite sexes?Even Feng Yi made him so angry, why did he act so indifferent when he heard that she was with Hao Xuan who had repeatedly troubled and hurt him?Or is he looking for an opportunity to flirt with her?
"Well, can I ask you something?" An Ke'er was extremely disturbed, and wanted to take the risk of confirming the city's true thoughts about her relationship with Haoxuan.

"You say." Cheng likes the night on this island, the bright moonlight blends into the colorful neon lights, making the whole world softer.

"I have a relationship with Haoxuan, what do you think?" An Keer bit her lip and asked straightforwardly.

"I don't really look at it." Cheng Jiang withdrew his far-sighted gaze, and saw Anker's reflection through the colored glass.

"Really? You are so angry that I am with Feng Yi, how can you accept me and Haoxuan? Although he is a brother, he always troubles you and hurts you. Compared with Feng Yi, he Doesn't it make it even more unacceptable to you?" An Ke'er said this, and found that she had revealed herself - she knew too much.

"I've never told you about Haoxuan, and I don't think my family will either. Where did you hear about these things?"

"It's a patchwork of things, plus Haoxuan's robbery, I heard the owner of the pizza shop say something about him, I think it's just superficial."

"Are you concerned about these things?" Cheng Wei lowered his eyes and asked thoughtfully.

"To be precise, I care about you and Haoxuan."

"Hey, what do you say?"

"I came here and saw that most of the troubles you suffered came from Haoxuan. He caused you a lot of trouble outside and hurt you. I don't want you to get hurt. And Haoxuan, he is very Loneliness is like a beast licking its wounds alone in a dark corner, tired of sitting, he is just using the way he thinks he is strong to cover up his fragility."

A gentle light flashed in Cheng Cheng's eyes, and the five fingers of his right hand passed through the soft black hair, and fell to the back of his head, where it finally slid to the nape of his neck. He smiled weakly and asked, "I'm a little jealous, Haoxuan seems It's easier to get into your heart."

"Uh, maybe it's because he and I are basically the same kind of person. Although we have different experiences, we are good at pretending to be aggressive and hiding our vulnerable side. In fact, I am more vulnerable than anyone else." Ann Ke'er said, gently brushing her face away - the scenery outside the car flashed before her eyes like a movie scene, which also affected her thoughts - why did she tell Cheng about this?Expose your true self.

"I will protect you, so you can show your vulnerability like an ordinary girl!" Cheng turned his head and looked at An Keer, who turned his face away, with a gentle tone.

"I don't want it!" An Ke'er's eyes flickered, and she lowered her head. "I will protect myself, in my own way."

"You really have to be strong." Cheng shook his head, and asked her interestingly, "Does my injury make you feel bad?"

An Keer nodded, but did not speak.

"Are you doing this because you are grateful to me?" Cheng asked again.

"..." An Ke'er didn't respond immediately, and she wasn't sure if that was the case anymore, but at first her kindness to the city was just as he said, but now, it seemed to be a little bit different, as for what was different , she couldn't tell.Finally, she gave up thinking and nodded.

Cheng seemed dissatisfied with such an answer, but reluctantly gave up asking.He took out two cans of drinks from the small refrigerator, opened them, and handed one of them to Anker.

"Thank you!" An Keer took the drink, brought it to her mouth, and took a long gulp.She sneaked a glance at Cheng Cheng, who was leaning against the car window drinking a drink while watching the scenery outside the car, and asked weakly, "About the relationship between Haoxuan and me, do you have any special requirements? Such a ban?"

"Hey, don't worry. When he knows the relationship between you and us, even if you rely on him, he will kick you far away. So, I don't worry about you at all." Cheng Bo His lips hooked slightly, revealing such a cruel situation.

An Ke'er's hand holding the beverage can couldn't help tightening, Cheng was right, if Haoxuan knew about her prospective daughter-in-law of LE's family, he would definitely not give her a good face, the best thing would be that he would ignore her, The worst opponent might punch her hard, and no matter how she explained that they just met by chance, he would think she was doing it on purpose or just for fun.
