Yu Xiaoyu took out her phone and took a picture of the roses in her hand.
It also has a nice filter applied.
I'll send it to my mom in a little while to show off; this bouquet is definitely prettier than the flowers in the flower garden at home.
Even if Dad found a designer and created some patterns, it wouldn't make a difference.
But why do those people refuse to accept money? They keep saying it's their honor to do these things.
There are still many kind-hearted people around.
Actually, what those people like best is to erect a tall tower among the flowers.
Especially in the summer, standing on the top floor and looking at the various patterns below always lifts my spirits. I'll definitely take my senior to see it sometime; I think he'll like it.
Qin Bai took a sip of coffee. After all that preamble, it was time to get down to business.
What have you been busy with these past few days?
"Huh?" Dumbfish's expression froze, clearly a little unnatural: "I haven't been busy with anything, I've just been preparing for the exam."
"Oh? Really?"
These things naturally did not escape Qin Bai's eyes.
The reason he came to find this fish today was actually to ask who the master behind her was.
Scheming and cleverness have similar meanings, but they are completely opposite.
The usually naive and innocent Dadayu has been playing hard to get these past few days.
All the information was there, but the person was nowhere to be seen.
Even when Qin Bai tried to ask her out, he was always given various excuses.
This made Qin Bai think a lot. He would never believe it if you told him it was Daidaiyu's own idea.
After thinking it over, it seems someone must have given the fish some advice.
When you maximize your longing, you'll get unexpected results.
I have to admit, that person won.
Having not seen him for a few days, Qin Bai really missed this silly fish, so he came today.
"Reviewing? I already know that, you'd better tell me sooner rather than later."
Yu Xiaoyu lowered her eyes, not daring to meet his gaze at that moment.
His eyes were fixed on the coffee cup on the table, and he felt extremely guilty.
Qin Bai smiled smugly; just as he had expected.
These little tricks were exposed in no time.
He sat calmly on his high place, like a victorious general, looking down at the defeated enemy.
"Tell me, who is it...?"
Yu Xiaoyu took something out of her bag and placed it in front of him.
"I was planning to give this to you during the holiday, but I didn't expect you to find out."
The crisp sound was filled with frustration; she had done it very discreetly, so why was she still discovered?
It's been said online that DIY items like this are the best gifts to give to loved ones when parting ways.
That way, even if it gets forgotten a little, seeing this little pendant will remind you of yourself.
Qin Bai stared blankly at the thing in front of him, the words he wanted to say stuck in his throat, and in the end he just said...
"Did you make this yourself?"
"Hmm, isn't it a bit ugly? I haven't had time to wash it yet. You have to give it back to me after you've looked at it, and I'll wash it and then give it back to you."
Blue and white strips of fabric were sewn together, linked together with not-so-refined stitches, and stuffed with fluffy cotton.
You can tell that this is a fish.
only......
Why does this fish look sickly? What are those little red dots on it? You really can't see them unless you look closely.
Is it because they've run out of cloth?
He picked it up and looked at it, just about to ask the question that had been bothering him, when suddenly his pupils dilated violently.
The dark red color was irregularly distributed in several inconspicuous places, perhaps even Yu Xiaoyu herself didn't notice it.
"Let me see your hands."
At this moment, Qin Bai's heart was filled with mixed feelings, and he couldn't make any expression, looking particularly serious.
"W-What's wrong?"
Yu Xiaoyu had never seen Qin Bai with such an expression before, and nervously reached out her fair little hand.
Open your clasped fingers.
Qin Bai asked, "Did you make these wounds while you were stitching this thing?"
"Huh? Can you still tell? It's all healed by now."
She took her finger and examined it carefully; there was no wound.
After a finger is pricked by a thin needle, no wound is left. Qin Bai asked this question only to verify his conjecture.
He picked up the DIY little fish and looked down at it.
Oh!
How ridiculous!
His supposedly extensive experience in judging people has now become a huge joke.
Qin Bai always believed that the world of adults is devoid of the word "simple".
And the experiences over the years have continuously validated that my theory is correct.
The world is bustling with activity, all for the sake of profit; the world is in turmoil, all for the sake of gain.
Who isn't adept at calculating for their own benefit?
But when such a person was actually placed in front of him, Qin Bai lowered his head in shame.
If the DIY project and the misunderstanding hadn't happened together, it wouldn't have affected him so much.
One plus one is now much greater than two.
Goldbach's conjecture is no longer valid.
The script didn't turn out the way he imagined.
"Senior Qin Bai, are you... alright?"
Yu Xiaoyu got up and sat down next to him, pulling his arm and asking softly.
The invincible general was completely dethroned.
And what pulled him down was not some battle-hardened enemy.
Instead, it's an incredibly stupid, clueless fish.
