Chapter 645 Sleeping Red Rose
As for Xiao Mo's current work, it is basically all for his aunt Xiao Junyu.
Xiao Junyu said she was his aunt, but in fact she was not much older than him.
Xiao Junyu's mother could be said to be Mr. Xiao's white moonlight, but unfortunately she had a short life and died not long after giving birth to Xiao Junyu.
Old Master Xiao didn't want her to suffer outside, so he took her home and gave her to Yin Manqing to raise.
For this matter, Mr. Xiao transferred most of his property to Yin Manqing.
It can be said that Xiao Mo grew up with Xiao Junyu, and the relationship between the aunt and niece has always been very good.
It was also Xiao Junyu who discovered that Xiao Mo had a talent for business and got him a position as vice president in her company.
Xiao Mo used to stay at home every day like a gloomy teenager who never went out for many years. Since taking over the position of vice president, he gradually felt that he was not a useless person, and his personality gradually became brighter.
Thinking about the past, Xiao Mo felt that God was quite good to him. At least he gave him a little warmth in his despair.
It was a busy day. In the evening, Xiao Mo washed up and lay down on the bed. Just as he was about to pick up a book, he saw the red rose on the bedside table at a glance.
The flowers were as big as a fist and had been blooming for several days, but had not yet withered. Xiao Mo couldn't help but sigh that the quality of the roses grown by the little girl was really good.
Xiao Mo, who couldn't sleep, got out of bed. He wanted to pour himself a glass of water. When he passed by the window, he vaguely saw two figures swaying in the courtyard next door.
He looked carefully and found that it was Ye Jintang and her assistant.
Each of the two people took a large glass bottle, and the things inside it flashed like fireflies.
After a while, the little girls who played badminton during the day also came.
"Sister, you are amazing. I have never seen fireflies in my life."
A little girl touched the bottle excitedly.
"Right, now I'll open the lid, and the fireflies will crawl out in a moment, and you can catch them."
As he spoke, Ye Jintang opened the lids of the two bottles, and several fireflies slowly crawled out from the bottle mouths.
A brave little girl took the opportunity to catch it. Some stupid fireflies would crawl onto her fingers, while the smarter ones would fly directly to the surrounding roses.
"Wow, fireflies actually glow from their butts."
The little girl screamed in surprise as she looked at the tiny firefly in her hand.
"Keep your voice down or you might scare the fireflies away."
Not really! It was late at night, even if it was in the villa area, screaming like that would affect other people.
"Sister, you are so amazing. At first I thought you were teasing us, but I didn't expect you to really catch fireflies.
"I never lie to children."
"Sister, can I take the fireflies home?"
"It's no use taking it back. Fireflies can't be kept alive. If you take it back, they'll all be dead tomorrow morning."
"That's such a pity."
A group of little girls released two large bottles of fireflies, and for a moment Ye Jintang's small garden looked like a dream and was extremely beautiful.
Xiao Mo, who was next door, watched this scene and couldn't help wondering, did he remember it wrong? Fireflies don't come out in September, it's already mid-October, where did Ye Jintang get the fireflies?
The little girls in the garden played for a while and were taken home by their parents. Only the beautiful fireflies were flying happily in the garden.
Xiao Mo stood and watched for a long time before returning to bed.
He turned off the lights and lay on the bed recalling the fireflies he had just seen.
Deep in his memory, when he was very young, his family lived in a very large manor. There would be many fireflies in the manor every summer. His mother was still alive at that time, and she would always take him and Xiao Junyu to catch fireflies.
Xiao Junyu is just like that little girl. When a firefly falls on her hand, she always screams in fright, but she never learns her lesson and still likes to catch fireflies. She is really green and playful.
Perhaps it was because the memories of his childhood were too warm, or perhaps because he heard too much pure laughter today, Xiao Mo, who was prone to insomnia, actually fell asleep in a daze. It was a very deep sleep, without even a dream, and when he opened his eyes it was already 7:30 in the morning.
Xiao Mo looked at the clock beside him with surprise. Ever since he had insomnia, he hadn't slept so soundly for a long, long time.
For three consecutive days, Xiao Mo could go to bed before 12 o'clock almost every night and wake up after 7 o'clock the next day.
At one point he thought he had recovered from insomnia.
But this was not the case. On the fourth day, he began to have difficulty sleeping again.
Wanting to sleep but not being able to sleep is a very maddening feeling.
"Why can't you sleep again suddenly?"
Xiao Mo, leaning against the head of the bed, was puzzled.
He turned around to get a book to read, only to feel that something was missing from the bedside table.
"Alas, why is the red rose gone?"
Thinking about it carefully, when the housekeeper came to clean the house today, she seemed to say that the red rose had wilted, so she threw it away.
"Could it be that my ability to sleep well has something to do with the red rose?"
This thought flashed through Xiao Mo's mind, and he just felt it was very funny.
He had seen so many doctors for his insomnia but none of them could cure it. How could it be possible that it could be completely cured just because of a red rose?
Xiao Mo, who was lying on the bed, picked up the book and started reading it carefully. It was already past 1 a.m., and he was actually already so sleepy that he kept yawning, but his mind was very excited and he had no intention of resting at all.
Xiao Mo, who really couldn't sleep, quietly climbed out of bed and went to the front yard.
The villa area was extremely quiet at 1 a.m., and the only sounds were the wind and the chirping of insects.
Xiao Mo glanced at the red roses planted by Ye Jintang, which were still blooming brilliantly in this quiet night.
He walked around the flower wall and finally couldn't resist stealing a red rose bud that was about to bloom.
"I'm sorry, Miss Ye. I will definitely send you an apology gift tomorrow."
When Xiao Mo was picking red roses, he was pricked hard by the thorns. His blood stained the red roses, and a faint blue light could be seen flashing on his blood.
After a lot of trouble, a red rose was finally placed on the bedside table. Xiao Mo, leaning against the headboard, felt a lot more at ease looking at the red rose. He continued to read the book and didn't even know when he fell asleep.
When he woke up the next day, the book he hadn't finished reading the previous day was still next to his pillow.
If he only suspected last night that the red rose had a sleeping effect, now he was 100% sure of it.
This matter is really unbelievable, but the facts are right in front of us.
He hesitated for a moment and quickly got up, without even having time to eat breakfast. He took out a priceless ruby necklace from the safe and went straight to Ye Jintang's house.
Ye Jintang, who usually likes to sleep in, had just got up with a toothbrush in his hand when her masked neighbor appeared in front of him.
When the two met, time stood still for a few seconds.
Xiao Mo looked at Ye Jintang, who was wearing a silk nightgown, with messy hair and holding a toothbrush, and then he realized that it was too abrupt for him to run over excitedly.
