Things with Li Muchen have initially got the approval from my brothers.
Even though Li Muchen still needs to secretly climb the wall if he wants to come to my room at night, at least now he can visit the Lu Family openly during the day.
On Monday morning, as soon as Lu Sheng stepped into the gates of Shengjing, she felt like someone was secretly watching her, making her involuntarily frown slightly.
At first, she thought it was her illusion, but when Lu Sheng got to her class, she finally understood why everyone was staring at her.
Her usual corner of the classroom was now filled with bright, luscious roses.
The sender was quite extravagant; there must have been thousands of roses, each petal glistening with clear dewdrops, looking very fresh.
On her desk, besides the roses, there was also a neat red velvet gift box with a big bow tied to it, looking like a gift for her.
Making such a grand gesture in class, the news must have quickly spread throughout the school.
People in the class kept stealing glances this way, and even the corridor outside was crowded with students from other classes looking to see what was happening.
Lu Sheng frowned involuntarily and looked at Huo Yu, her desk mate. Clearly, these things were already here when Huo Yu arrived, so he shook his head slightly at her.
So, Lu Sheng paused, then expressionlessly pushed aside the roses under her desk and stood in front of her desk.
She then didn’t even bother to open the velvet gift box, simply picked it up, turned around, and threw it into the nearby trash can.
As expected, the moment she threw it, someone jumped out.
Fu Chen who had been sneakily observing Lu Sheng’s reaction in front of the classroom, saw that Lu Sheng actually threw the gift away, he couldn’t help but blurt out and stood up.
He almost jumped as he fetched the gift box from the trash can, then shouted at Lu Sheng, "Wait, you didn’t even open the gift, you just threw it away?"
Lu Sheng frowned looking at Fu Chen standing in front of her, and asked coldly, "Did you arrange these flowers? What are you doing this for?"
Fu Chen seemed choked by her question, his expression suddenly turned awkward, even his face faintly flushing.
A boy giving a girl flowers and gifts, what else could it mean?
Learning that all the flowers in the classroom and the gift on Lu Sheng’s desk were arranged by Fu Chen, the onlooking classmates couldn’t help but gossip secretly as if they had found juicy news.
Wow, wasn’t Fu Chen dating Qianrou, who is also Lu Sheng’s sister?
Now that Qianrou had left quietly to study abroad, Fu Chen turned around and began showering Lu Sheng with flowers and gifts so publicly.
Could it be that he has broken up with Qianrou and is now pursuing Lu Sheng?
What a melodramatic love triangle this is turning out to be. Too thrilling indeed.
Fu Chen stumbled over his words, struggling under Lu Sheng’s direct gaze, and finally managed to say, "Grandpa Fu said you saved his life, I wanted to show my gratitude by giving you these flowers and gifts."
Saying so, Fu Chen opened the gift box he was holding, inside was a dazzling ruby necklace that looked to be worth at least hundreds of thousands.
"I had someone bring this necklace from abroad; I thought it suited you well, so I wanted to give it to you."
"And you didn’t even look at it, just threw it straight into the trash."
Is it because she saved Old Mr. Fu?
Lu Sheng couldn’t help but frown.
Ever since that birthday banquet of Old Mr. Fu, she felt something was off about Fu Chen.
These days, Fu Chen was always sneakily watching her in class, and whenever she looked back, Fu Chen would immediately avert his gaze with guilt.
It was really irritating her.
And now, he was pulling such a stunt in class.
Even though their relationship, to put it mildly, was mutually distasteful, normally keeping to themselves, what was the point of this display now.
"I saved Grandpa Fu because he was kind to me, you don’t need to thank me on his behalf."
"I won’t take this necklace," Lu Sheng spoke coldly, "and please have someone clear these flowers soon, they’re in the way."
