While Chu Ruoruo and He Cizhou were taking a stroll under the moonlight, Ye Qingran and Chu Yan had already returned home.
Ye Qingran saw a bouquet of flowers and a cake placed at the door.
She glanced at Chu Yan behind her. âYou bought it and had someone leave it at the door to give me a surprise.â
Chu Yan frowned slightly. âIt wasnât me. Did they send it to the wrong person?â
âThereâs a card on it.â Ye Qingran walked closer and picked up the card on the cake box.
She opened it and saw two lines of words written on it.
âDear Brother Yan, Iâm back. I wanted to give you a surprise, but I didnât expect you to not be home. Iâll visit you next time. Good night.â
Ye Qingran looked at Chu Yan with a smile. âBrother Yan?â
Chu Yan picked up the flowers and cake and was ready to throw them directly into the trash can.
However, Ye Qingran stopped him. âYou can throw the flowers, but you must keep the delicious dessert.â
âIâll buy some for you.â
âThe cake looks really good. Since itâs a token of appreciation, I naturally canât waste it like this. Itâs shameful to waste food.â
Ye Qingran smiled doubtfully with a crafty look in her eyes. âI just donât know if sheâll be so angry that sheâll vomit blood when she finds out that the cake she gave you was eaten by another woman.â
Chu Yan smiled dotingly at her and did not stop her.
After Ye Qingran carried the cake in, she looked at Chu Yan and asked, âArenât you going to tell me who the person who gave you the flowers and cake is?â
Chu Yan looked at her. âItâs just an unimportant person.â
Ye Qingran said, âIt canât be the sister of that family friend of yours that He Cizhou mentioned earlier, right?â
âIt should be her.â
âWhat do you mean it should be her? It canât be. A random woman picked up a bouquet of flowers and a cake on the road and placed it directly in front of your house.â
âItâs not impossible.â
Ye Qingran gave him a fake smile and turned to leave.
But in the next second, she was pulled into the manâs embrace.
Chu Yan circled her from behind and his deep voice rang in her ear, âYouâre jealous.â
Ye Qingran snorted arrogantly, âHow am I jealous? I just ate some explosives.â
Chu Yan was amused.
He held her shoulder and circled her in his arms before facing her face to face, âShe is indeed the person He Cizhou mentioned. However, that so-called family friend has nothing to do with me. Iâm not familiar with her either. On account of her young age, I didnât pay much attention to her.â
He looked at Chu Yanâs somewhat helpless but determined handsome face.
âAlright, the explosives have been doused with water. They wonât explode, butâ¦â
Ye Qingran glared at him and raised her hand to grab Chu Yanâs collar, pushing him back.
Then, she pressed him down on the sofa.
Ye Qingran rode on him and said domineeringly, âIf I find out that youâre a fickle man who seduces other women, Iâll lock you up.â
The corner of Chu Yanâs mouth twitched.ââ¦â
Have the roles reversed.
His eyes glistened as he stared at Ye Qingran. âOkay.â
Ye Qingranâs lips curled into a smile as she leaned over and kissed Chu Yanâs lips. Then, she asked, âWhatâs your favorite flower?â
This topic suddenly changed, and Chu Yan was slightly puzzled. âMine?â
He did not particularly like any, nor did he particularly dislike any. To him, flowers were just a tool, a fake product.
Ye Qingran hummed in agreement. âThatâs right. After receiving the cake that someone else gave you, I naturally have to give you a bunch of flowers as compensation. Quick, tell me, what kind of flowers do you like?â
Chu Yan looked deeply at Ye Qingran. This reason made him a little uncertain.
However, he could sense that Ye Qingran was still jealous. Giving him flowers was more like a declaration of sovereignty.
He smiled. âNo matter what kind of flowers you send, Iâll like them.â
Although the cake was not thrown, Ye Qingran did not eat it in the end. She let the Aunty who came to help take it away.
She really felt that it was a waste to throw away such a big cake. Moreover, the aunty was especially happy when she heard that the cake was given to her.
Ye Qingran finished handling the cake and started thinking about sending flowers.
She did not feel that in a relationship, it was necessary for a man to send flowers to a woman, and that a woman couldnât send flowers to a man.
It was also possible to send flowers once in a while, and it had to be sent directly to the place where Chu Yan worked to let everyone know that this man was no longer single.
However, what flowers should a woman send to a man?
Lilies?
Or roses?
Ye Qingran looked at the online shop for a long time and finally chose two.
Roses and Platycodon grandiflorum.
In the afternoon, while resting in the dormitory, she asked her roommate, Xiao Feiyue, âWhich bouquet of flowers do you think is nice?â
Xiao Feiyue stuffed snacks into her mouth as she looked at the pictures. âTheyâre all very nice. Who are you going to give them to? If Itâs a girl, I think roses are fine. If Itâs a boy, I think Platycodon grandiflorum is better. Otherwise, what if the roses are misunderstood?â
Ye Qingran said, âThe flower language of Platycodon grandiflorum seems to be eternal and unchanging love.â
Xiao Feiyue:â? ? ?â
She smiled. âYouâre going to give them to a boy. You actually chose these two types of flowers that people might misunderstand. Arenât you afraid that your boyfriend will be angry if he finds out?â
Ye Qingran replied, âIâm just giving them to my boyfriend.â
Xiao Feiyue was surprised. âYouâre giving flowers to your boyfriend? Usually, isnât it the boyfriend who gives flowers to his girlfriend. Is it his birthday?â
Ye Qingran shook her head. âNo, I just suddenly wanted to send him flowers.â
Xiao Feiyue smiled. âWow, youâre really romantic.â
âWhich do you think is better?â
âBoth of them are not bad. If it were me, I would probably choose the Platycodon grandiflorum, eternal love.â
Wang Xiaoyu pushed the door open and entered. She happened to hear their conversation.
She smiled and asked, âWhat are you guys talking about? What platycodon grandiflorum, what eternal love.â
Xiao Feiyue looked at Wang Xiaoyu who had returned and said with a smile, âYe Qingran wants to send flowers to her boyfriend. She asked me to help her see which is better.â
Wang Xiaoyu did not come back alone.
Xia Xin was still following behind her.
When Xia Xin heard Xiao Feiyueâs words, she immediately shouted in shock, âWhat? Ye Qingran, you even sent flowers to your boyfriend?!â
Wang Xiaoyu was especially speechless. She glanced at Xia Xin and said, âSo what if sheâs sending flowers to her boyfriend? Isnât that normal?â
Xia Xin chuckled and said, âThatâs not normal. Under normal circumstances, if that man likes you, why would he let you send flowers to him? He would definitely send flowers to you every day.â
Ye Qingran did not want to bother with Xia Xin at all.
She took out her phone and placed the order for the roses to be sent directly to Chu Yanâs company.
She had decided to send the Roses today and the Platycodon grandiflorum tomorrow.
The two of them had chosen for so long. When they couldnât make a choice, they would send both.
However, Xia Xin didnât seem to want to let this topic go.
In her heart, she had already determined that Ye Qingranâs relationship with Chu Yan was because Ye Qingran had been sticking to Chu Yan all this time. That was why Chu Yan had no choice but to be with Ye Qingran.
She said to Ye Qingran, âYe Qingran, did your boyfriend ever send you flowers?â
