Chapter 895 Give up?
"Sorry, we don't have Epiphyllum in our store."
"OK, thanks."
"Dingling bell~"
Xiao Xiao pushed the door and left the flower shop.
Noticing that Mayfly was feeling a little depressed, Xiao Xiao tilted his head and smiled, "It's okay, it's just the first one."
“We will find the Epiphyllum.”
"Ah."
Mayfly quickly perked up and nodded heavily.
Xiao Xiao kept walking.
I know in my heart that even though Epiphyllum is very famous, there are very few of them even in flower and bird markets, let alone ordinary flower shops.
However, under the current circumstances, he didn't know where else to find Epiphyllum except in the flower shop.
Even if there is little hope.
As long as he persisted, he thought, he would always be able to look forward to good luck.
The street lights came on.
Xiao Xiao paused and looked up at the sky.
Before I knew it, night was approaching.
Although he went to five or six flower shops, he found nothing.
"Xiao Xiao."
Mayflies flew in the circles of light cast by the street lamps, their wings shaking off tiny specks of light.
I don’t know if it was Xiao Xiao’s illusion, but the color of the mayfly’s body became lighter and lighter.
"Thank you."
"I am very happy."
met you.
So, even if “I didn’t find the Epiphyllum, it doesn’t matter.”
The desire to see the Epiphyllum was just a sudden impulse one day.
Later, unknowingly, it became the only thought in its mind.
Maybe it's because the waiting time is too long.
It clearly knew that it only had one day to appreciate such a beautiful world.
But I still couldn't help but spend my time looking for Epiphyllum.
Now, time is really running out for it.
Epiphyllum, perhaps it can only be its wish.
Although I feel unwilling and regretful.
However, it can do nothing about its own short life.
"ephemera."
Xiao Xiao looked up and asked, "Are you sure?"
He couldn't say anything like don't give up, they will definitely find the Epiphyllum.
Because he wasn't sure.
He was not sure, should he let the mayfly spend its last moments searching for a hopeless night-blooming cereus, or should he let it see the world?
Which is the right choice?
Which is the choice that Mayfly will not regret?
Only the mayfly itself can make the choice on this issue.
No one can decide for the mayfly.
Although he knew all this clearly, Xiao Xiao remained silent.
He remembered the mayfly's full of anticipation when it talked about the night-blooming cereus, and the little monster's gratitude and excitement when he agreed to help it find the night-blooming cereus.
Mayfly seemed to be stumped by Xiao Xiao's question.
It was also silent.
For a moment, under the street light, passers-by could see a young man with his face slightly raised, not knowing whether he was in deep thought or distracted.
Although it was strange, no one stopped their hurried steps.
Just a glimpse.
"Mayfly, do you want to see the Epiphyllum?"
Xiao Xiao spoke, breaking the silence, his expression serious.
".think."
Mayfly did not deny his own heart.
Epiphyllum is the thought it has when it is still in the egg.
During the long wait for the egg to hatch, the imagination of the night-blooming cereus almost occupied all its thoughts.
So many beautiful imaginations.
It's so anticipated.
How could it not want to see Epiphyllum?
However, the mayfly looked up and the sky became dim.
The afterglow is hazy.
Most of the sky was dark.
Only a corner of the sky was still a large area of bright red.
It's beautiful and magnificent.
It was inexplicably touched, yet also a little anxious.
Because it has not seen this beautiful world carefully. So, should it keep looking for the night-blooming cereus or enjoy the scenery in front of it?
It's confused.
Xiao Xiao didn't say anything.
Mayfly needs to think carefully and then come up with the answer in his heart.
".Epiphyllum."
Mayfly lowered his head and looked at Xiao Xiao, "I want to see the Epiphyllum."
After all, I was still unwilling to give in.
A glance, even just a glance, it wanted to see the Epiphyllum that it had been longing for for so long.
Epiphyllum, I wonder if it is as beautiful as imagined?
"it is good."
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows curved slightly, "Then let's continue."
"Ah."
Mayfly nodded heavily.
It was getting dark, but the only good thing was that Xiao Xiao could be a little more unrestrained now.
He shuttled through the alleys and back streets, occasionally climbing over the wall when he reached a dead end.
Faster, faster, he told himself.
However, every time I walked into the store with hope, the answer I got was -
"terribly sorry."
“My store doesn’t sell Epiphyllums.”
"Where is the Epiphyllum? I don't know."
"I'm sorry, I don't know the guest's situation either."
The moon is rising.
The light is bright and clear, as thin as a cicada's wing.
The mayfly's butterfly-shaped wings seem to be made of the purest moonlight, flowing with moonlight like frost, almost unreal.
The gilded lines that Xiao Xiao had seen on the wings had almost lost their brilliant golden color and turned dull.
He gasped and clenched his fists.
Time is running out!
"Xiao Xiao."
The mayfly's voice was as ethereal as when I first heard it, and even had a hint of clarity, "What a beautiful moonlight."
However, Xiao Xiao heard a subtle sense of melancholy hidden in it.
His brows furrowed for a moment.
But a second before Mayfly looked over, his brows relaxed, his expression was calm, and there was a faint smile in his eyes, "Well, the moonlight is very good tonight."
"Xiao Xiao, I'm so happy."
Mayfly said cheerfully, "In the end, you're here to keep me company."
"I always thought."
It will look for the Epiphyllum by itself and look at the world. When the moon is at its zenith, it will disappear under the moonlight.
Nothing bad.
However, the current situation makes it even happier.
However, I still haven’t seen the Epiphyllum.
"Xiao Xiao."
Mayfly stopped in front of Xiao Xiao and asked, "Can I ask you for one more favor?"
"what's up?"
Xiao Xiao didn't answer yes or no, but Fei Fei knew that he agreed.
How to do?
I seem to be in a better mood.
Even the reluctance and regret of not seeing the Epiphyllum did not seem to make me so sad.
"Go check on the Epiphyllum for me."
Mayfly's tone couldn't help but reveal a hint of longing, "I can't see it anymore."
"But if you saw it."
“I would feel as if I had seen it, too.”
"it is good."
Xiao Xiao nodded, "I will."
"I'll find a beautiful epiphyllum."
"you will like it."
".Um."
Mayfly took flight, "I'm sure I'd like that."
It responded loudly, flapped its wings, and circled around Xiao Xiao.
Points of light are scattered everywhere.
This scene is so unreal and beautiful that it seems like a dream.
Xiao Xiao stretched out his hand, and a hazy light soon flashed in the palm of his hand.
"it's beautiful."
He sighed softly.
The mayfly landed on Xiao Xiao's open palm.
Hearing this, its eyes curved into crescent shapes, "Thank you."
