Chapter 255: The Only Valentine's Day
That morning, Tao Jiujiu received a voice prompt from the system memo as soon as he turned on his phone: I wish you a unique Valentine's Day!
This is the only Valentine's Day she and Ye Hongtao share, and it has extraordinary significance to them.
Tao Jiujiu no longer snoozes. She got up early and called Ye Hongtao.
"Wine and wine..." Ye Hongtao's voice sounded a little tired.
"Hong Tao, good morning!" Tao Jiujiu asked happily, "Do you still remember what day it was?"
Ye Hongtao's answer disappointed Tao Jiujiu: "What day?"
He asked so plainly, as if he hadn't noticed the importance of today, nor did he hear the expectation in her tone.
"Valentine's Day!" Tao Jiujiu reminded, "It's a 214-day day for us to fall in love!"
Since the two of them met, whenever they encountered a special day, they would go to places that meant something to them together.
For example, Lover Bay, Angel City.
Ye Hongtao once accompanied Tao Jiujiu for one night on his birthday, and she also clumsily prepared a failed surprise for him on his birthday.
I wonder what he will behave today? Apart from what she said that day, would she have prepared a surprise before she could?
Tao Jiujiu's eyes kept turning, looking forward to the upcoming program.
"Jiujiu, I'm sorry, the company suddenly received a big order. I'm afraid I don't have time to accompany you during the day..." Ye Hongtao seemed listless, "I'm so sorry, I disappointed you..."
"Big order?" Tao Jiujiu was shocked, obviously not expecting to get such an answer, "Then you have to pay attention to your health."
What happened to Ye Hongtao? In the past, he always looked arrogant and even if he had a big order, he rarely asked about it himself. Apart from the final decision, he would hardly participate in the initial negotiation process.
Then I thought about it, maybe the development of Ye’s group is booming, and a woman should not blame the ambitious man.
"Hong Tao, you work first, of course you must remember to cherish your body."
"Okay." Ye Hongtao there was relieved and hung up the phone directly.
He really couldn't get out of his body, but it was not because he had a big customer, but because he went to drink after get off work last night and drank all night. Until now, his eyelids still couldn't lift up.
That night, what he did with Mu Huan never let go of. He felt that he had hurt Mu Huan and betrayed Tao Jiujiu, but he also had to aggrieved Mu Huan to conceal Tao Jiujiu. He was depressed and confused. Moreover, he had no object to confide in such matters!
Therefore, Ye Hongtao had no choice but to use alcohol to anesthetize himself. He drank himself so much that he returned to his villa in the suburbs alone, laying on the cold and warm bed, telling himself to forget.
But it's useless. Even if he is so drunk that he can't even walk, he still can't forget it.
Tao Jiujiu called him, which made him feel more guilty. Her happiness and her unpreparedness made him feel even more dirty.
Didn’t he know that today is Valentine’s Day, the only one they have?
However, he was too afraid to face those pure and crystal eyes, and to face the master of those eyes.
Therefore, Ye Hongtao could only think of the most rustic and stupid way to escape. Moreover, he was indeed very tired. Since he had not been asleep all night, his eyes were covered with blood.
============
Ye Hongtao had no time, but Tao Jiujiu didn't want to be idle, so he went out shopping alone - this was a very special day and she couldn't waste her time.
Whether it was a coincidence or God's intentional arrangement, Tao Jiujiu came to Lover Bay aimlessly.
A girl in her teenager ran towards Taojiujiu with her flower blue, and held the corner of her clothes and called out, "Beautiful sister, should you buy a bouquet of flowers?"
"Buy flowers?" Tao Jiujiu frowned slightly and then smiled, "Little sister, tell me, why do you want to buy flowers?"
"Because this is Lover Bay, my sister is alone and she must have no boyfriend." The little girl said confidently, "Since she doesn't have a boyfriend, she should buy a bunch of roses to give to herself. She can also wish herself a marriage soon."
"Little ghost spirit." Tao Jiujiu's face opened deeper smile, deeper into his eyes, "How do you see that his sister doesn't have a boyfriend?"
"Because my sister doesn't look very happy." Perhaps, it was because the little man's eyes were sharp, and he said word by word into Tao Jiujiu's heart, "Sister, even if you have a boyfriend, he will not be happy with you today, right?"
What a little girl! Tao Jiujiu smiled and was about to pay.
A familiar voice suddenly penetrated into my side: "Little sister, how much does it cost to spend?"
Tao Jiujiu turned around and saw that the man was Zhang Xiaoliang. I haven't seen him for a long time, and he is still so gentle and handsome.
"Xiaoliang, long time no see." Tao Jiujiu took the initiative to say hello.
"Long time no see." Zhang Xiaoliang said, leaning down and saying to the little girl, "Otherwise, I'll want all your flowers."
"Brother, are you saying it true?" The little girl looked surprised.
"Of course it's true. How could my brother lie to you?" Zhang Xiaoliang said.
The little girl tilted her head and began to calculate the price: "The rose costs three yuan per piece, and there are ninety-nine pieces in a basket, which should be..."
"Two ninety-seven yuan." Zhang Xiaoliang calculated the price first, handed the little girl three hundred yuan bills, and smiled and said, "Okay, take it, don't find it anymore. You can buy a pack of candy for three yuan change!"
"Thank you brother." The little girl smiled and gave Zhang Xiaoliang to Basket and Rose together.
Zhang Xiaoliang took out two of them, handed them to Tao Jiujiu, and smiled and said, "Happy holiday."
"Send me roses, aren't you afraid of Hong Tao's misunderstanding?" Tao Jiujiu said with a smile.
"Sending three pieces is 'I love you', four pieces is 'a lifetime', five pieces are 'love you forever', two pieces are 'a form of love. If he misunderstood this, it would be useless for so many years of friendship." Zhang Xiaoliang said with a confident smile.
"It seems to be too." Tao Jiujiu nodded.
Zhang Xiaoliang asked again: "By the way, why are you here alone today? Didn't Hong Tao accompany you?"
"He only has time to go out for a walk in the evening. Where is you? Why didn't you date your girlfriend?"
"What girlfriend, I don't know where the person is. I think no one wants me anymore." Zhang Xiaoliang smiled and said, "But I have my own place to go."
Seeing that he was talking mysteriously, Tao Jiujiu became interested and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Go to the orphanage. These roses are also given to the children." Zhang Xiaoliang smiled, "It's Saturday, and I just have time."
"Would you please take me with you?" Tao Jiujiu suddenly thought, "I want to go with you to help the children."
"You?" Zhang Xiaoliang said in surprise, "If you go, how can Hong Tao explain it?"
"What are you going to tell me? He won't be free until the evening. I'll go home at four o'clock."
