She was deep in thought when Feng Ling entered, carrying a large bouquet of red roses and a small, delicate gift bag. She placed the two things on Ji Nuan’s desk.

Ji Nuan had yet to return to herself fully. When she saw the large bouquet, she lifted her head. “What is this?”

“Someone sent this over earlier. They said it was for you. I’ve checked it. There’s nothing wrong with it.” Feng Ling looked at her.

“For me?” Ji Nuan pointed at the roses, looking suspicious.

Feng Ling nodded, and without saying more, she turned to leave.

“Wa! Aren’t there at least several hundred roses in there?” Xiao Ba leaned on Ji Nuan’s desk enviously. “Who sent them for you? It’s so romantic! Could it be President Mo?”

How could Ji Nuan possibly know who had sent them.

It wasn’t her birthday, nor was it a special occasion or an anniversary. Furthermore, she had only just visited the police station in the afternoon. Only a few hours had passed since Mo Jingshen sent her back to the studio. Why would he suddenly send her presents and flowers? It was not as if he had multiple personality disorder!

Ji Nuan suspiciously raised the large bouquet. The tender and alluring roses carried their unique fragrance. Every flower seemed to be delicately picked. With just one glance, she could tell they were of one of the finest breeds. Not only were they definitely expensive, but they were also packed to endear to the hearts of young women. They were wrapped with pink packaging.

This color…

Ji Nuan could not help but recall the pink gown Sheng Yihan had previously prepared for her.

Many years ago, whenever the teenage her accompanied Ji Hongwen to large events, she would always be dressed in pink. No matter if it was her gown, shoes, or bag, they were all pink. Back then, she was indeed a young lady who adored pink. She lost the bias for that color over time.

This bouquet was not accompanied by a card. She could not see the sender’s name or a message.

She casually took up the delicate gift bag by the side, opening it to find a square gift box. After unwrapping the box, she found the white packaging for a branded, luxury, handmade leather watch.

It contained the latest Van Cleef & Arpels women’s watch in pink color. When Ji Nuan saw the image on the watch’s face, her expression immediately turned unhappy.

She found a card inside the box and flipped it over to see a message written in black ink.

[Van Cleef & Arpels’ Lovers Bridge; It’s the most romantic watch in the world. The little boy points toward the minutes, while the little girl points toward the hour. With every passing minute and second, they move closer to each other. The little boy is urgently counting down the minutes, while the little girl is calmly counting down the hours. As they approach midnight, they share one minute of embrace.

-Wishing you all the best, my little girl.]

The sender did not leave his name on the card.

However, Ji Nuan could recognize Sheng Yihan’s handwriting. Several years ago, she had seen his writing when he lived in the Ji family. Afterward, when Xia Tian was hospitalized, she had also seen the diagnosis and medical history he had written.

“Such a beautiful watch, ah!” Xiao Ba exclaimed loudly by the side. After seeing the logo, she appeared even more starstruck. “My god! It’s actually this brand! It’s really expensive, ah!”

Before Xiao Ba could even finish her words, she watched in shock as Ji Nuan shoved the large bouquet into the trash bin. She then pushed the gift box away from herself.

“Do you like it? I’ll give it to you.”

Xiao Ba: “…”

Three droplets of sweat rolled down her forehead. Such… s-s-such an expensive thing, how could she dare to take it?

Ji Nuan glanced at the watch box and heaved a deep sigh.

Several days ago, she had returned home to expose Shen Heru’s mask. Today, Sheng Yihan abruptly sent her flowers and a gift. What was he trying to say?
