Chapter 81 Chapter 81 Bai Tianming nodded...
Bai Tianming nodded and smiled, "Okay, thank you."
"You're welcome." Enoch waved his hand and said nonchalantly.
Bai Tianming tilted his head and looked at him, then asked tentatively, "How about I give you some flowers someday? It'll be my way of saying thank you. Do you like flowers? I have a lot of beautiful, fresh, and fragrant flowers at home."
Although wolves don't like flowers very much, after all, they don't eat them normally, but they don't hate them either. After all, they are luxury goods. They are just decorations, and expensive decorations at that, so they won't lose their status.
Bai Tianming smiled unconsciously at the mention of flowers. Yinuo looked at him with wide eyes, and suddenly felt as if an arrow had pierced his heart. He was stunned for a moment before coming to his senses. He didn't know what he was saying, but just agreed: "Okay."
After saying this, Enoch looked away, his face flushing slightly. Suddenly flustered, he took two steps to the side, creating some distance. Then, startled, he noticed his heartbeat quickened. He took two more steps and hesitantly said, "Actually, you don't have to give me a special gift to thank me."
He turned his back to Bai Tianming, still a little nervous, but much better. His tone was calm, yet strangely tinged with worry, as he spoke earnestly, as if warning, "Flowers are expensive luxuries, especially fresh ones. If you factor in shipping, it's even more expensive. You look so young, so it's best not to give someone such expensive things casually."
When he saw Bai Tianming, he was looking for the way, so he had no idea that Bai Tianming appeared here suddenly instead of spending money to buy a ticket and take a bus or boat.
He also thought that Bai Tianming's family was not very rich, and the reason they could send flowers to him was just because they happened to grow flowers at home. The whole family must rely on those flowers to make a living. Moreover, they carefully cared for them every day, for fear that one of the flowers would not bloom well enough and could not be sold at a good price, and they would have to starve soon.
Although he didn't know what Bai Tianming came here for, he felt that since Bai Tianming came here, he must have something important to do, and he had spent a lot of money to buy a ticket and traveled all the way here.
Maybe it was to meet a big client and sell the flowers at home in large quantities. If the family really grows flowers and makes money by selling them, this is not impossible.
Although he doesn't look tired from the journey, perhaps it's because he has good physical fitness, so he doesn't seem to be affected much. In fact, he still needs to rest, otherwise how could he not find the way?
In his mind, Bai Tianming was just a poor little guy who had to sleep in the open air and was extremely poor. It was his first time to come to such a big, beautiful and clean place like the Kingdom of the Clouds. He didn't know what to do in private. Whether out of kindness or selfishness, he felt that he should help him out of both emotion and reason.
After all, he wasn't paying, he was just pointing the way, which wasn't a big deal. Accepting flowers for directions, even just one, would be excessive.
He didn't come here to give directions just to receive gifts from others.
Yinuo straightened his chest, turned around, and said to Bai Tianming very seriously: "Don't give things to others casually, especially expensive luxury goods like flowers. It will give people the illusion that you are easy to approach, which will make you easily offended because some people are really good at pushing things too far.
Also, you've already thanked me, so there's really no need to send flowers."
He said these words just like a kindergarten teacher teaching a child, with great patience and gentleness, and his words were extremely sincere, as if he wanted to pour his heart out to prove that he had no other intentions.
Bai Tianming really found it funny. He could feel that Enoch treated him as a poor guy who had never seen the world. He couldn't help but smile. Although he might really have never seen the world, he was not really that poor.
Bai Tianming took a long time to calm down and stop laughing. He then reluctantly raised his head, looked at Enoch, and replied, "I know everything you said, but if you don't want to accept my gratitude, it's because you think I can't afford it. If I accept it, won't I become the one who is demanding it?"
Enoch's eyes widened in surprise, a bit panicked, and he quickly waved his hands to explain, "That's not the case! How could it be possible? I don't think that way at all! And no one would think that way."
Bai Tianming smiled and said calmly, "If you don't like flowers, I can choose not to give them to you. But if you're thinking of me, including the time you showed me the way, doesn't that mean I owe you twice? I owe you twice, and you don't feel ashamed. Isn't that asking for too much?"
Enoch's face turned red with anxiety: "Verbal thanks also count as thanks! Who says that only giving things counts? I can't accept yours!"
For a moment, he was like a puppy running around in a cage, wagging his tail to show friendliness, but at the same time, he was so anxious that the cage made a clanging sound as he chased it. He almost spoke without thinking, muttering, "I don't need anything at home."
After he finished speaking, he immediately felt that his words might hurt people's feelings and could easily deepen misunderstandings, so he quickly said, "I don't mean to say that your things are bad!"
Bai Tianming knew it, but he smiled, turned his head away, and pretended to care. He said in a dejected voice, "You don't want to accept my things, and you say you don't need them. It seems that I have made things difficult for you."
Bai Tianming lowered his head, his eyes drooping as if in mourning. His voice became even lower, euphemistic and frustrated, and even his eyes seemed to be red. He looked pitiful but didn't want to cause trouble for others, so he forced himself to say, "I shouldn't have mentioned it."
Yinuo's eyes widened and he took a deep breath. He suddenly felt that he had done something bad with good intentions. He was annoyed. He squatted down and moved closer to Bai Tianming, more like a curly-haired puppy wagging its tail. He whispered, "Don't be sad, I'll take it."
Bai Tianming couldn't help but laugh, but he didn't want him to see it. He turned his head to the other side and covered his eyes with his hands, as if he was about to cry. His voice trembled slightly as he said, "I'm not sad. As long as you're willing to accept it. But I have to be clear, I can't turn a flower into you right away. When I can give it to you depends on when I have time."
"I know, I know," Enoch immediately turned to the other side, blinking his eyes like a nervous puppy, and said softly, "As long as you are willing to give it, it's all fine."
As he spoke, he thought to himself that the flowers he received should not be accepted in vain. It would be better to give him something else next time, preferably something that he could use and not too cheap or too expensive.
If you give money directly, you may be rejected. After all, some people will feel humiliated after receiving the money.
Although Bai Tianming should not feel humiliated while taking the money, it would be his fault if you thought he took the money to humiliate others and cried secretly.
He can't do that again!
He didn't come out to make others sad.
Bai Tianming finally couldn't help laughing. He put his hand down, patted his shoulder, pulled him up, let him sit next to him, and smiled at him: "Then this matter is settled."
Yinuo sat next to Bai Tianming, looking at his face with wide eyes. He found that there were no tears on his face, and he felt relieved. Fortunately, he didn't really make him cry, otherwise it would be too much. He nodded repeatedly and replied, "Okay."
At this time, the car arrived.
A group of passengers got off the bus one after another. Enoch pulled Bai Tianming up and found a seat to sit down. Bai Tianming sat in the window seat and he sat next to Bai Tianming.
He looked around and saw that there weren't many people on the bus, so he whispered to Bai Tianming, "The Cloud Bus actually functions as a sightseeing bus, providing passengers with opportunities to take photos and check in, so the speed isn't very fast, and therefore it's very stable.
You can rest in the car for a while, and when you wake up, we'll be almost there. If you're worried about not being able to wake up, I promise I have the strength to carry you out of the car if you're asleep."
As he spoke, he patted his chest to show his strength, and gave Bai Tianming a very sunny, cheerful and somewhat innocent smile.
I don’t know if it was because the car window was open a crack and the sunlight was pouring in from outside, but Bai Tianming felt his eyes were dazzled by his creamy teeth.
Bai Tianming blinked his eyes. Although he couldn't see anything clearly, he still felt his kindness and smiled, "Thank you. I'll rest for a while, but I won't sleep that deeply."
Enoch smiled and said, "All good."
Bai Tianming nodded and closed his eyes.
Just when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly felt the car body shake like in a nightmare, and he was jolted and opened his eyes.
At the same time, Enoch, who was sitting next to him, widened his eyes, reached out from the side, and pressed him down on the seat. While paying attention to the situation outside the car, he whispered to him: "The Cloud Bus has mistakenly fallen into a wolf pit."
Bai Tianming blinked and asked in confusion, "What pit?" It's not that he didn't hear clearly, but he just couldn't figure out how the bus could have fallen into the pit.
And how could such a large car suddenly flip into a pit and only sway for a moment? Was it the car's performance that was too good, or was it the driver's ability that was too strong?
If you're in a deep sleep, you might not wake up. However, you might be struck by something unexpected and not wake up at all.
All in all, the current situation is a bit strange.
"A wolf pit is a natural phenomenon. It's a large hole that suddenly appears in the ground. You can't tell it's a pit until you step into it," Enoch explained patiently. "It's called this because people used to dig pits to catch wolves, and they always caught wild wolves, which is very similar to the situation today."
"So should we wait for rescue and fish the Cloud Bus out like fishing, or wait for the driver to drive out directly?" Bai Tianming blinked his eyes, not knowing anything, and asked curiously.
