Under the man’s intense gaze, after a while, she turned her face slightly and said softly, "I like chrysanthemums." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Yan Yan: "?"

He thought he had heard wrong, looked at her with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Are you serious?"

"Is it not allowed?" Yun Qiqi’s eyes showed sincere confusion.

What’s wrong with chrysanthemums? They are beautiful!

"..." Yan Yan suddenly remembered that two years ago, when he asked her what flowers to arrange for the wedding venue, she also said chrysanthemums. This little one sure has a consistent preference.

After a few seconds of silence, he resignedly said two words: "It’s okay."

Yun Qiqi glanced again at the flowers in the trash can, feeling a bit regretful.

They looked expensive, only to be thrown away like this. Picking them up didn’t seem quite right either.

Yan Yan noticed her gaze and immediately pinched her little chin, turning her face back.

While pulling up one of her small hands: "Just as you’re here, let me take you for a walk in the garden."

Secretary Qin, who was about to come in to report, heard these words: "?" No, Boss, what are you doing strolling at such a busy time? Aren’t there things to attend to later?

However, Yan Yan didn’t even glance at him, already leading the young girl towards the aerial garden.

Secretary Qin could only silently watch their backs, tears of sorrow left behind.

The aerial garden was particularly large, and was designed by a world-class landscape designer, the environment was very good.

Plus, being at a height, the broad view made it seem like one could touch the blue sky and white clouds with an outstretched hand.

Yun Qiqi’s gaze was drawn to the scenery, and she quickly left thoughts of roses behind.

After returning, she almost forgot about the matter.

It wasn’t until before sleep that she remembered to mention it to Chu Yibai, so she sent him a WeChat message.

[Little White, don’t send me flowers anymore, it’s such a waste.]

Chu Yibai had just finished attending an event and returned to the hotel, seeing her message instantly reinvigorated him.

He thought she felt fresh flowers easily wither and would be wasteful.

He immediately responded: [It’s fine, it’s not wasteful, as long as you like it!]

But Yun Qiqi sent the message and went to sleep, not replying further.

Chu Yibai lay on the bed with his phone, waiting for quite a while without receiving new messages, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

Thinking about the past few days, everything felt like a dream.

Yan Yan had been looking for Luo Luo for two years, hadn’t he done the same?

He couldn’t forget the moment two years ago when he learned about her abduction and disappearance, feeling as if his mind was engulfed by a sudden shock, his entire world collapsing.

Overseas at the time, he immediately rushed back by plane.

Back then, Yan Yan had already stirred up a storm across the entire Imperial City alone.

After his return, he joined the investigation, Yan Yan didn’t stop him, the Chu Family and Yan Family rarely collaborated, but it happened at that time, for one girl.

Yet ultimately, nothing was found.

Later, Yan Yan suddenly backed out, refusing to let him participate in any related matters.

Unwilling to give up, Chu Yibai sought him out.

He still remembered Yan Yan then, his exquisite face clouded with gloom, brows darkened, coldly stating: "What can you help with? This matter isn’t as simple as you think. She’s my fiancée, I’ll find her myself."

It was at that moment, returning home, he realized just how powerless he truly was...

So he returned to the Chu Family, beginning to engage with the matters of the power center.
