"Could I take a look at those two pots of flowers?"
Xiao Xiao looked at the two pots again.
But soon, his gaze shifted to the girl, who still hadn't quite recovered. "I'll wait here."
"Could I trouble you to bring the flowers down?"
In any case, it wouldn't be appropriate for him to go into the girl's home.
So he could only trouble her to bring them down herself.
"Ah, okay."
The girl nodded instinctively.
Only then did she realize what Xiao Xiao had said.
She opened her mouth.
There were so many things she wanted to ask.
But she felt they weren't questions she had to ask right now.
And, for the moment, she couldn't quite put her thoughts into words.
She pressed her lips together.
Then she headed upstairs.
The girl came running back down.
It had taken her a little while to find bags for the flowerpots.
"Big brother."
The girl was a little out of breath.
Xiao Xiao took the bags from her hands.
"You didn't have to hurry so much."
Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly.
The two flowerpots weren't light.
And she'd run down the stairs carrying them.
It would have been bad if anything had happened.
As she caught her breath, the girl gave him a hurried smile.
"I was just too curious."
Her gaze moved back and forth between the flowerpots in the bags and Big Brother.
When she'd gone upstairs, she had picked up the flowerpots and examined them for a while.
She had looked at both flowers countless times—the purple one she took care of and the blue one Lele was raising.
Even after examining them closely again, she hadn't noticed anything unusual.
She could only marvel once more: They really were beautiful flowers.
