Chapter 1548: This Was Meant for You
Han Zhuoli and Lu Man almost died from anxiety watching them from the side.
Why did he just stop at “Hm”? He should at least say a few words.
Han Zhuoling was then seen pointing to the seat where the flowers were placed and said, “Sit.”
Shi Xiaoya already felt a lot of pressure just standing here.
She felt that she was not suited to sit here no matter how she looked at it.
But she had already walked in here and could not regret it anymore.
She braced herself and bent down, about to pick up that huge bunch of flowers.
Yet someone beat her to it.
Shi Xiaoya looked up in shock and saw that the flowers were already in Han Zhuoling’s hands.
He was donning a suit, looking graceful and poised. Holding a bouquet of flowers in his hands right now made him look really eye-catching.
As if he came personally to woo someone.
They clearly knew it wasn’t the case, but he looked way too good right now that so many people already started taking out their phones to snap secret shots.
After today, they won’t even know if they would get a chance to see such a scene.
Shi Xiaoya remembered how these flowers were originally from Han Zhuoling. Although the bouquet was entrusted to Xiao Zhang to deliver, the intent was still his to begin with.
Great. Now, the original sender of the flowers was holding them himself. Shi Xiaoya’s ears turned hot as she thought about that.
When she sat down, Han Zhuoling sat down as well.
Shi Xiaoya felt embarrassed to ask the bouquet of flowers back from him, as if she really wanted it and treated it as something very important.
But she could not just let Han Zhuoling hold it like this. She turned and was about to ask when she saw Han Zhuoling looking down at the bouquet.
He suddenly turned to look at her and asked, “You haven’t seen the card inside?”
The envelope had not even been opened and was perfectly intact.
Shi Xiaoya could only explain, “When Xiao Zhang came to deliver the flowers, there were some people at the side, so it wasn’t a good time to look.”
Han Zhuoling nodded with a very understanding look on his face.
Shi Xiaoya heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Thank you. You can pass it to me now.”
Han Zhuoling raised his eyebrow. “This was meant for you. It’s not like I’m going to take it away.”
Shi Xiaoya: “...”
That’s not what she meant!
This was exactly what she was worried about just now. She worried that Han Zhuoling would misunderstand!
Since she had already said it, Shi Xiaoya decided to take the flowers back. Alas, Han Zhuoling did not give it to her. He picked up the envelope in it and stuffed it into her hands. “Read it now.”
Shi Xiaoya: “...”
Han Zhuoling was holding on to her flowers and not returning them. That posture looks as if he regretted giving them and did not want to return them to her.
“There’s still some time before the welcome party starts,” Han Zhuoling said. “I’ll hold the flowers for you. You can read the card first.”
Shi Xiaoya: “...”
Did he want her to read it in front of him?
Was this an upgrade?!
She used to read it in front of Xiao Zhang, and now she would read it right in front of the sender.
Shi Xiaoya almost laughed in anger.
Did people apologize like this?
He was almost stalking and coercing someone into forgiving him.
Han Zhuoling was really flowing with dominance from inside out.
Resigned, Shi Xiaoya could only open the envelope under Han Zhuoling’s pressuring gaze.
When she read it in front of Xiao Zhang, she still felt fine. She felt a little uncomfortable at first but she was fine afterward.
But now that the person in front of her had changed to Han Zhuoling, she simply felt too embarrassed to read it.
She did not even dare to look at Han Zhuoling’s face right now. She lowered her head uncomfortably and said, “May I look at it when I go back?”
“No,” Han Zhuoling said firmly.
Shi Xiaoya: “...”
Was this seriously the attitude of someone who’s apologizing?
This man, Han Zhuoling, was even so domineering when apologizing, as if she was the one in the wrong instead.
She was clearly not at fault, yet she felt incredibly guilty.
Shi Xiaoya got so angry that she raised her head and glared at him.
Yet she saw that Han Zhuoling’s expression was completely different from how cold and domineering his words had sounded.
That good-looking face actually became gentle and even revealed a hint of helplessness.
