C218 (1/2)

Returning to the Anlan City from the old house, he sent Helian Di back to the villa and then drove to the suburbs of the city by himself.

He was very familiar with this road. Many sleepless nights, he would drive alone in the direction of the suburbs, just to ease some of his thoughts and worries. Even with his eyes closed, he knew which road would take him straight ahead, not to mention the rows of small shops that lined both sides of the road.

When he was turning the corner ahead, Xiang Qicheng suddenly saw a flower shop by the side of the road.

The sign of the shop had the words ”A Flower Shop” written on it. Although the shop wasn't big, the flowers in the shop were arranged neatly according to their color and style.

There was a wooden signboard outside the shop with eight neat words engraved on it: ”To sell flowers in this life. Beautiful in the next.”

Without any hesitation, he parked the car on the roadside and got off.

”Welcome, sir, what kind of flowers would you like to buy?” The shop owner was in her early thirties. She wore an apron and a sky-blue cartoon headscarf, but it didn't seem out of place. Instead, it added a hint of liveliness to her appearance. With a pair of scissors in one hand, he was pruning the rose in his hand. However, when he saw that the customer had arrived, he didn't have any intention of stopping.

”I... ”I don't know.” Xiang Qicheng was stunned in place.

I just wanted to buy a bouquet of flowers to take with me, but I didn't think of buying any flowers. To be exact, he had no idea what flowers there were. He was not a romantic person, and in the days they were together, he rarely sent flowers. Even if there was one more time, it would be for Zuo Lin to buy it for her and send it there.

The Lady Boss raised her head from amongst the roses on the table. When she saw Xiang Qicheng, her eyes lit up and asked with a smile, ”It's alright, I can recommend him to Mister. Who is it for? ”

No matter if it was his figure or appearance, this man was outstanding. Not to mention the biting cold aura he emitted.

”My wife.” At the same time these three words were said, Xiang Qicheng's gaze instantly became gentle. The light in the Lady Boss's eyes dimmed, and she suddenly felt a sense of loss in her heart.

As expected, all men of such high quality had an owner. Forget it, coming to her shop was fate.

He turned around and entered a door by the side of the table. After a while, he came out with a bouquet of flowers in the shape of pink and white flowers. They were already wrapped in a light blue paper bag.

”This is Yanggang's Echo series. It's a sincere and unchanging love. It's very suitable for you to give it to your wife, Mister.” The Lady Boss smiled and gave the flowers she was carrying to Xiang Qicheng.

After settling the bill, the lady boss carefully placed the wrapped flowers into a bag and looked at Xiang Qicheng with an envious gaze: ”Your wife must be very happy.”

Happiness? Xiang Qicheng left the flower shop and returned to his car, thinking about this question even after he started the engine.

He thought, Chu Yu was not happy to meet her. He had missed too many opportunities, missed too much of her love for him, and he had ruthlessly crushed her heart into a pulp. If she had a next life, he would chase after her, and she wouldn't have to work so hard.

The car turned into a more remote road and soon came to a halt in front of its destination.

”Chief Xiang? You came so early today. ” The security guard at the door was surprised to see him.
