Chapter 224 Deciding to Move
Chapter 224 Deciding to Move
A flower shop at the end of Xiujie Street in the east of City A.
Xi Hua was idly trimming a pot of roses with scissors, but she was clearly not in the right state of mind, and many tender leaves that had been cut off had already fallen off the side of the flowerpot.
"careful!"
Mu Junze had been watching her for a long time. Seeing her staring blankly, almost cutting her own fingers with the scissors, he quickly reminded her.
Xi Hua snapped out of her daze and looked at the roses she had ruined, feeling both ashamed and heartbroken: "Oh, I really am..."
Mu Junze took the scissors from her hand and carefully trimmed the over-pruned branches and leaves. In just two minutes, the potted plant, which had looked pitiful, was radiant again.
“It’s dangerous to get distracted while pruning; you can easily hurt yourself.” Mu Junze put the scissors into the tool basket, looked up and asked, “Do you have something bothering you? Perhaps I can be your listener.”
"This..." Xi Hua hesitated for a moment, then said tactfully, "Actually, I'm considering whether or not to move away from City A..."
Mu Junze was taken aback and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you suddenly moving?"
Xi Hua didn't want to talk about An Jia's situation, only selectively saying that it was because the flower shop was moving to another city and she had to go with them.
“My daughter also hopes I can move…” Xi Hua sighed softly, head bowed in distress, “I’ve lived here for over ten years, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to adapt to another place…”
Mu Junze spun the roses on the table around and moved them in front of Xi Hua. He then slowly said, "Rosees are plants that grow outdoors. Their branches take root as soon as they touch the ground. But if they are planted in pots, the plants will change their growth patterns to adapt to the environment and space."
Xi Hua looked at the pot of red roses in front of her and remained silent for a moment.
“If a flower can adapt to survive, so can you,” Mu Junze said with a smile.
Xi Hua fell silent.
"But if this shop closes down, I'll be the one who'll be in trouble." He changed his tone, feigning a sigh.
Xi Hua looked up at him, puzzled. He sighed and explained, "I finally found a confidant to talk about flowers with, but I didn't expect you to leave."
Xi Hua was immediately amused by him, and to be honest, she was also a little reluctant to part with this new friend.
Where will the store be moved to?
"It seems to be... Z City." Xi Hua carefully recalled the place her daughter had mentioned, but she couldn't quite remember it because she was too surprised at the time.
Mu Junze was taken aback again, then shook his head and chuckled: "That's quite a coincidence. My original residence was not far from Z City, just outside the capital. It was more convenient to go to Z City than to come here."
"Really?" Xi Hua was surprised. The thought of having familiar friends in a new environment made her feel much more at ease.
After talking with Mu Junze, Xi Hua was no longer as flustered as before about moving, and she began to seriously consider the matter.
Remembering that her daughter had mentioned meeting someone from the An family, Xi Hua gritted her teeth and decided to move so as not to cause trouble for her daughter!
Once she made up her mind, Xi Hua immediately contacted Black Dog and explained that she was willing to go to Z City to manage the shop.
The black dog was overjoyed and patted his chest repeatedly, promising to leave everything to him!
With Xi Hua's approval, Black Dog immediately began selling the house and shop, aiming to resolve everything within a week. The boss had already instructed that the move must be kept secret and conducted discreetly.
