Chapter 280: Chapter 279: Qiuqiu with Clear Grudges and Favors Chapter 280: Chapter 279: Qiuqiu with Clear Grudges and Favors He pushed open the door and entered the flower shop.
The fragrant aroma that hit him made Qiuqiu’s mood turn delightfully pleasant, its long tail resting slightly on Shao Zifeng’s travel bag as it gently swayed.
Under the soft lighting inside the flower shop, various flowers and plants competed in splendor, their petals glistening under the light.
“Hello, sir.”
Hearing a customer enter, a girl wearing a headscarf stood up from between the flower racks.
She was dressed in a retro peasant long dress, with strands of golden hair faintly visible under the headscarf.
This girl seemed to be seeing a foreigner for the first time; her expression was slightly hesitant, she put down her watering can, and walked toward Shao Zifeng, “May I ask if you are ordering a custom bouquet, a gift box, or selecting houseplants?”
Fearing that Shao Zifeng might not understand, the blonde girl deliberately slowed down her speech.
Shao Zifeng looked around the flower shop with a gentle smile on his face, “I’d like to look around first.”
Realizing that Shao Zifeng could understand English, the blonde girl visibly relaxed, a sweet smile appearing on her face, and the light freckles on her fair complexion added a touch of innocence.
“Please feel free, and call me anytime if you need anything.”
Shao Zifeng nodded, his gaze shifting to the plants inside the shop.
The decor of this flower shop was quite simple, with an overall beige base color, wooden racks paired with soft lighting, giving the entire shop a relaxed and cozy atmosphere.
To Shao Zifeng’s left, a flower rack was outfitted with exquisite glass vases, and trimmed flowers were inserted in the vases.
To his right was a workbench, with ribbons, scissors, and wrapped bouquet gift boxes casually placed on the surface.
Further inside were various potted green plants, where the blonde girl was currently bent over watering the plants with a small watering can.
“Qiuqiu, which one do you want?” Shao Zifeng turned his head and quietly asked Qiuqiu for its opinion.
“Ying~”
Qiuqiu spread its little paws out, gesturing.
Shao Zifeng’s face darkened, “No, that’s too many.”
“Ying!” Qiuqiu argued, putting down a paw.
“Not even half.”
“Ying ying ying~”
“No coquetry either!” Shao Zifeng was somewhat curious; he hadn’t realized it had this hobby before–wasn’t Big Gold Tooth appealing enough?
“Unless you tell me why you suddenly want to buy so many flowers.”
“Ying~”
Qiuqiu appeared slightly embarrassed, showing an awkward demeanor.
“Who is Tuantuan?” Hearing Qiuqiu’s reply, Shao Zifeng was confused, “I know I am Jiandan, I’m asking who Tuantuan is?”
“Ying ying!”
Finally, after Qiuqiu’s animated gestures, Shao Zifeng finally understood the whole story.
It turned out that during the previous period when Qiuqiu could not often come out due to its size, Lingling and the little deer…
That is, Tuantuan would often come to play with it.
And they had even collected quite a few teeth as gifts for Qiuqiu.
While receiving gifts was certainly enjoyable, the subsequent dilemma troubled it.
Qiuqiu, a creature of clear grudges, couldn’t possibly accept these gifts for nothing, so it also planned to return a gift to the Tuantuans.
It didn’t know what the little deer liked, but Lingling’s love for money was well-known.
Logically, giving money directly would be the simplest.
But the problem was, it had no money.
So, seeing so many flowers today, Qiuqiu had a brainwave to buy some flowers as gifts for the Tuantuans, to surprise them after they evolved.
After listening to Qiuqiu’s explanation, Shao Zifeng was still very relieved; he remembered that initially, just because he had paid a bit more attention to a white cat, this little green tea almost died of envy, and now it had even learned the proprieties of reciprocity. He couldn’t help but acknowledge its gradual growth.
He prodded its little head with his finger, “You should have just told me earlier.”
“Ying~”
Qiuqiu woefully covered its little head with its paws.
“Boss.” Shao Zifeng waved at the blonde girl.
“Sir, which ones caught your eye?” The blonde girl quickly put down the watering can and skillfully wiped her hands on her coarse linen dress.
“How much would it cost to buy all the flowers in the store?”
The blonde girl’s beautiful eyes widened. “All of them?”
After receiving Shao Zifeng’s affirmative answer, a hint of joy flickered across the girl’s face, and she quickly brought over a chair. “Sir, please wait a moment, I’ll tally them up.”
Having said that, she hurried towards the counter.
However, after impulsively agreeing to Qiuqiu to buy all the flowers, Zifeng calmed down and faced some difficulties.
The flower shop wasn’t large, but it had hundreds of pots of green plants, plus some pruned flowers, so the quantity was enormous.
Money wasn’t the issue for him; the main problem was how to take all these plants and flowers away.
If it were said that Lingling and the Deer were about to evolve successfully, that would be fine, and it could count as delivering Qiuqiu’s heartfelt gesture, but currently, there was no sign of their complete evolution.
And transporting them to the Snow Dragon vessel was even less reliable. Not to mention, it was difficult to find someone so late in an unfamiliar place, even if they managed to transport them onto the ship, how to preserve them was another issue.
After departing from Littleton Port tomorrow, the Snow Dragon would head straight to the Ross Sea into the Antarctic Circle. In just eight days, the temperature would rapidly drop from 25 degrees to below zero. The icebreaker ship simply wasn’t equipped to preserve these plants.
Zifeng, feeling a headache coming on, tapped Qiuqiu’s little nose. “You’ve really caused a big problem for me.”
“Ying~”
Qiuqiu tilted its little head, trying hard to understand the meaning of Zifeng’s words.
Just when Zifeng had no idea what to do, Qiuqiu suddenly called out next to his ear and stretched out its little paw, gesturing something to Zifeng.
“Would this work?” Zifeng frowned slightly.
Qiuqiu quickly nodded its little head.
According to it, these plants could be directly sent to the creature space.
His creature space was somewhat special–Zifeng knew this, and after all, Qiuqiu often brought special items like Hidden Blade into the creature space.
If it weren’t for the fear that summoning Hidden Blade directly would cause unnecessary trouble, Zifeng really didn’t want to carry a travel bag everywhere.
But plants were different from Hidden Blade; they were all ordinary plants after all, and whether they could be sent in was still an unknown.
Either way, Zifeng still decided to give it a try.
Thinking this, Zifeng stood up, plucked a lily from the vase, and on returning to his seat, he positioned his hand behind the blonde girl, making a light swiping motion.
Watching the miniature space rift slowly unfolding in front of him, Zifeng held the lily and gently pushed it towards the rift…
The stem of the lily deviated from the center of the space rift, seemingly blocked by an invisible thin membrane.
Zifeng sighed, so it wouldn’t work after all.
Just then, Qiuqiu jumped into the space rift from his shoulder, stretching out its little paw and hooking it invitingly at Zifeng.
Zifeng subconsciously placed the lily in Qiuqiu’s little paw.
The next moment, something magical happened.
As Qiuqiu’s little paw retracted back into the creature space, the lily in its paw disappeared along with it.
It worked!
Zifeng was overjoyed.
“Ying!”
Qiuqiu jumped from the space rift onto his lap, proudly lifting its little head.
Zifeng joyfully picked up Qiuqiu and planted a big kiss on its little head.
Qiuqiu’s body stiffened, and the dark red Scale Armor visibly turned a fiery red, emitting terrifying heat.
Hiss!
Zifeng quickly let go.
On its way down, Qiuqiu quickly curled into a ball.
It covered its eyes with its long tail, not daring to look at Zifeng.
(//V//)
Zifeng looked at the embarrassed Qiuqiu and was a bit mesmerized.
Such a big reaction, really!
