"Sunshine? Who is Sunshine?" She didn’t know anyone by that name, right? And this handwriting... She didn’t recognize it either, so she probably didn’t know this person, right? So why would this person send her flowers?
Ling Chuxia frowned slightly, her eyes filled with deep confusion. She was staring absently when Lin Shasha suddenly snatched the small card from her hand and read the words written on it aloud.
"I am only fond of you. Wow, wow, wow, such a romantic confession! Xiaxia, who sent you these flowers? Is it your boyfriend?" Lin Shasha’s eyes sparkled, both envious and curious.
Boyfriend? She didn’t have a boyfriend! Ling Chuxia instinctively shook her head, honestly responding, "I don’t have a boyfriend."
"No boyfriend? Then it must be an admirer~ It seems he really put a lot of thought into it, Xiaxia~" Holding the bouquet, Lin Shasha grinned mischievously, teasing Ling Chuxia with squinted eyes, "Such expensive flowers, it seems your admirer is quite well-off too. Come on, tell us, who is it?"
Admirer? That seemed even more far-fetched. Where could she possibly have admirers? She had only recently arrived in Lin City and her acquaintances were limited to the company and Brother Xuan...
Wait! Could it be Brother Xuan?
No, no, no, how could it be Brother Xuan? Why would he send her flowers out of the blue? Moreover, the words "I am only fond of you" clearly indicated a confession. It couldn’t possibly be Brother Xuan.
But if it wasn’t him... then who could it be?
Ling Chuxia thought it over and over but couldn’t come up with anyone. So she shook her head again, "I don’t know." Her gaze lightly fell on the bouquet of champagne roses, her brows furrowing even tighter. After a moment, she said, "These flowers... might have been delivered to the wrong person?"
Originally, Ai Li was so shocked that the flowers were meant for Ling Chuxia that she couldn’t react, and then seeing everyone crowding around her, praising and flattering her, she was even more infuriated, grinding her teeth. Now, hearing Ling Chuxia’s words, she snorted coldly.
"These flowers must have been delivered to the wrong person. Who knows whose flowers they were, they just ended up wrongly named after you, giving you a lucky break!"
Ai Li’s remark was something Lin Shasha couldn’t agree with. Ai Li had always been picking on Chuxia, and now she couldn’t stand seeing others prosper. Raising her eyes to Ai Li, she retorted, "It’s written right here in black and white with Xiaxia’s name on it. How could they have been delivered to the wrong person? Such expensive flowers, you think they could just be sent wrongly? Besides, our Xiaxia is so beautiful; it’s completely normal for her to have wealthy and influential admirers, not like those minor rich kids who just send cheap roses, and there are even people who brag about it!"
"You!" Although Ai Li was unconvinced, Lin Shasha’s words pierced her heart. Just earlier she had been bragging about her own roses, but now, with the noble and elegant champagne roses appearing, her bright red roses suddenly seemed so cheap, so tacky... She couldn’t bear to look at them a second time.
She struggled to find words to counter for quite a while, her frustration bitterly lodged in her throat. Finally, she glared fiercely at Ling Chuxia, "Hmph, I don’t believe you would have any significant admirers; these flowers definitely weren’t meant for you. Just you wait!"
With those harsh words, Ai Li clacked back to her seat in her high heels.
