The Reigning Star: Tycoon's Exclusive Obsession-Chapter 969 - 51: Kikyo, Hopeless Love

President Lu seemed to have no objection to what she chose. After she finished talking with the owner and settled the quantity, Lu Beiyao casually said, "Add another bouquet. My office needs some too."

He let her go with her feelings the entire time, just like when he set up the bar for her to manage without hesitation, just like when he defended her for no reason, kicking Zhang Yang and Zhao Xinxin out of the hotel.

When everything was settled, Li Siru said no more. The two of them walked through the flower clusters to leave, feeling peaceful and harmonious.

By the time they came out, it was already very late. As soon as they got in the car, Lu Beiyao said, "It’s so late already. Let’s have dinner before heading back?"

"No need, I..."

"Even if you go back to work, you need to eat enough to have the energy to do it." Lu Beiyao interrupted her, "Don’t worry, it’s just to thank you, and also, today’s outside work counts as extra part-time, the money will be added to your salary."

He said lightly, appearing a bit indifferent, making her overthink.

Yet the more it was like this, the more uncomfortable she felt inside.

The car drove to a nearby restaurant. Though small, this restaurant was very cozy and classy, with the small wooden house complemented by dim yellow lighting, bouquets placed all around inside and outside. If one didn’t go in, they might have thought it was just a flower shop.

As soon as they sat down, a waiter came forward to take their order. Lu Beiyao began looking at the menu, while her eyes were entirely attracted by the shop’s decor.

Li Siru couldn’t help but ask the waiter, "Are all your flowers just for display?"

"Hello Miss, our flowers are also for sale, if you see something you like I can wrap it up for you right now."

"Oh, no, I’m just curious." She scanned around, her eyes bright and inquisitive.

After ordering food, when they started eating, she couldn’t help asking, "Did you specially bring me to this restaurant? I know it’s abrupt to ask, but..."

"What if I said yes? What would you do?" Lu Beiyao countered, "Today was also specially arranged for you."

Li Siru’s heart skipped a beat, and then she heard him say, "Do you think it could be like that?"

"Huh?" She looked up at him. With him being so unpredictable, her heart was all the more confused.

"Let’s eat!" Lu Beiyao said lightly.

Li Siru then nodded, the two of them seemed always to fall into this awkward situation, until the meal ended. She quickly got back in the car, ready to return to work, as it was just the time the guests were many.

Lu Beiyao drove her very fast, and when the car reached the hotel’s underground parking lot, she quickly unfastened her seatbelt. Lu Beiyao got out of the car before her, and as she closed the door, he handed her a bouquet, "A reward for your hard work today."

"No, it’s not... not hard work!" She originally wanted to say it wasn’t needed, but hesitated and took the flowers.

Kikyo flowers?!

"Do you know the language of Kikyo flowers? Eternal love!" Lu Beiyao suddenly said.

Li Siru’s steps halted, standing there silent for a few seconds, she turned and replied, "It also has another flower language you might not know, and that’s hopeless love." She smiled, raised the flowers in her hand, "Thank you, President Lu!"

Saying this, she immediately turned and fled!

Lu Beiyao originally wanted to chase after her, but feared rushing might turn out like last time, ending up standing still.

Hopeless love?! 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Does she mean to implicitly reject him?!
