Chapter 212: Chapter 162: Lu Fan: Silu, Do You Have a Wish? Dad Will Make It Come True.
This counted as a major breakthrough.
To others, it might have seemed crazy for a rich man like him to give up a life of indulgence in favor of returning to the warmth of family.
But Lu Fan had long since grown tired of that so-called life of indulgence.
All he wanted now was to experience the warmth of family.
It was just as Jiang Ming had realized that night.
The kind of women others might spend a lifetime dreaming of were, in Lu Fan’s eyes, merely ordinary.
Lu Fan also believed that after the events of that night, his young brother-in-law’s perspective might have changed.
Of course, Lu Fan had no control over how he might change.
After all, everyone walks their own path.
The only reason Lu Fan helped Jiang Ming was because of Jiang Yixia.
If it had been anyone else, he wouldn’t have batted an eye, even if they’d died right in front of him.
「The next morning.」
Lu Fan was out for his morning run along the commercial street.
When Jiang Yixia arrived at her flower shop, she found an exquisitely prepared breakfast waiting by the door.
She glanced around, and her gaze finally settled on the oden shop.
She had no choice but to pick up the breakfast and open the shop door.
Just then, Lu Fan jogged past her flower shop and asked, "Yixia, you’re here early. Want to go for a run together?"
"The hell I will!" Jiang Yixia scowled and walked into the flower shop.
Just then, Li Li walked in.
Sister Li looked at Jiang Yixia and chuckled. "Well now, who sent this lovely breakfast?"
Jiang Yixia blushed with embarrassment, setting the breakfast aside. "Someone must have left it at the wrong door. I’ll just throw it out later."
"Don’t you dare throw it away! I was waiting nearby just now. I saw with my own two eyes President Lu leave it at your door," Sister Li teased.
Jiang Yixia grew curious. "Sister Li, were you looking for me?"
"My shop is closed today, and I’m heading back to my hometown for a visit. I was thinking of bringing a carnation back for my mom, and that’s when I saw President Lu..."
Before Sister Li could finish, Jiang Yixia cut her off. "Okay, okay, Sister Li, you don’t need to speak up for him."
"Fine, fine, I’ll stop talking," Sister Li said with a laugh. "Why haven’t you forgiven President Lu yet?"
"You’re still at it," Yixia chided. "Don’t think I won’t get mad at you just because we’re close."
"Okay, okay, okay. This time I really mean it, I’ll shut up."
Jiang Yixia then turned on her computer and discovered someone had placed an order.
"Someone actually placed an order for a whole week, and they want one sunflower every day?" Jiang Yixia was puzzled. "And the name on the order is just ’A Customer.’"
Sister Li laughed. "That’s great! Isn’t that easy money?"
The moment Jiang Yixia saw the address, she was speechless.
She took a sunflower from the cooler, marched straight over to the oden shop, and confronted Lu Fan. "Ordering from yourself for a whole week straight? Do you really think that’s amusing?"
"How do you know it’s for me? It could be from a customer with a secret crush," Lu Fan said nonchalantly.
Jiang Yixia frowned. ’There’s no out-talking this guy.’ She had no choice but to place the sunflower in front of him. "One sunflower. Delivery accepted."
"Great. Not bad," Lu Fan chuckled. "Having a flower from your shop here will certainly brighten my mood."
Jiang Yixia had already turned to leave, but her heart skipped a beat when she heard that. Still, all she said was, "A waste of money."
Back in her shop, Sister Li immediately sidled up to her. "I think President Lu is really sincere. You should stop putting on airs and just forgive the man. Besides, you’re all alone every night. Don’t you get lonely? You can’t possibly rely on batteries forever, right?"
"Sister Li, I’ve never used one!" Jiang Yixia explained, her face beet red.
"Oh my heavens, you’ve never even used one? You haven’t truly lived," Sister Li said, shaking her head in exasperation. "Anyway, it’s just like I always say: a woman needs to be ’watered.’ If you’re not, you’ll get old before your time. President Lu has been pursuing you for a while now. Why not just forgive him?"
"I won’t forgive him. No matter what he says, I won’t forgive him."
As Jiang Yixia said this, she turned away, as if she had made some sort of resolution.
But out of the corner of her eye, she saw Lu Fan arranging the sunflower she had just delivered.
’You annoying man! That’s not how you arrange a sunflower!’
