Zhao Lingyu was naturally very surprised to receive a call from Qin Jiran, and when he heard that Qin Jiran agreed to attend and would also bring his wife, Zhao Lingyu was even more delighted. He immediately informed Qin Jiran of the time and location of the gathering.
The gathering was scheduled for one week later. Since the scale was not small, with about one to two hundred people expected to attend, the location was set in a banquet hall of a hotel owned by one of their classmates. A few well-off individuals sponsored it, so there were no fees to be paid; attending on time was all that was required.
That evening, when Qin Jiran hurried home, Su Yanyi had already had her dinner and gone to the greenhouse to view the flowers. Not even bothered about not having eaten himself, Qin Jiran immediately went to the greenhouse.
Su Yanyi was quite fond of gardening, after all, static things didn’t cause too much trouble. Whenever she had some free time, she would come to take a look. The greenhouse was planted with many kinds of flowers; some were still blooming, others only had green leaves, but the sight was always full of vitality and could easily make one feel pleased.
Su Yanyi sat in a wicker chair holding a cup of grapefruit tea while reading the newspaper and looking at the flowers. She was comfortable and casual, and this was the scene that Qin Jiran saw, which immediately slowed his hurried steps, as if afraid to disturb this tranquility.
On regular days, Su Yanyi was very beautiful, but it was a beauty that carried a commanding aura, aloof and sharp, creating a sense of distance.
At this moment, however, Su Yanyi was beautifully soft, comfortably soft, making people feel warm inside, wanting to approach her, to accompany her quietly.
Unwilling to disturb this beauty and peace, Qin Jiran stopped his steps from afar and just quietly watched Su Yanyi.
Although Su Yanyi was still looking at the newspaper in her hand, she had noticed him the moment Qin Jiran entered. As she felt him approaching gradually, she was about to react when he stopped at a considerable distance, causing Su Yanyi to halt her actions and wonder whether the man had poor eyesight and hadn’t noticed her presence.
After waiting a while and seeing that he remained motionless. Su Yanyi finally raised her head somewhat unhappily and asked in a louder voice, "What are you doing standing there stupidly? Looking at flowers?"
"Looking at you," Qin Jiran immediately walked over, fixing his deep gaze on Su Yanyi and saying.
Su Yanyi blinked, and for a moment, something akin to the emotion called embarrassment flitted across her regards.
This man was becoming more and more straightforward with his words. It seemed she needed to boost her resistance. Su Yanyi was not going to admit that she had felt embarrassed just now!
"Do I look good?" Standing up and tilting her head up slightly, Su Yanyi asked confidently.
Qin Jiran wanted to laugh; such a proud and confident Su Yanyi was beautiful to the point of making it impossible to look away.
"You don’t need to ask such a question," he responded, since there would never be a negative answer.
Su Yanyi’s eyes twinkled with mirth, clearly very pleased with Qin Jiran’s answer. She asked, "Is everything settled? What time? I’ll have Pan Yan clear her schedule."
Qin Jiran repeated the details of the time and location, then asked, "Are you sure you want to go? There will be a lot of people, and it could be messy."
"No problem." She wanted to see Wang Zhilin’s jealous face. After her rebirth, she hadn’t seen Wang Zhilin yet; it was about time to meet her.
Seeing Su Yanyi’s demeanor, Qin Jiran didn’t try to dissuade her anymore. Anyway, he would protect Yanyi no matter what.
Noticing Qin Jiran in his outdoor clothes looking somewhat tired, Su Yanyi asked, "Have you eaten? You haven’t eaten yet, have you?"
