Qin Zheng raised his chin and winked at her in the direction Erdanzi had left.

As Erdanzi walked, he hurriedly picked flowers by the roadside.

He stuffed all sorts of flowers into his hands, pinching and shaping them to resemble the bouquet in Ye Yun's hands, his thin cheekbones gleaming with anticipation.

Ye Yun: "..."

It's truly beyond saving.

"Never mind him."

Qin Zheng shook his head, put his arm around Ye Yun's waist, and walked into the courtyard.

Unfortunately, after they turned around, they didn't see that Erdanzi, as if suddenly remembering something, threw away the wildflowers he had picked and ran off in a hurry towards the house of Old Liu, who loved to grow flowers in the village.

Then.

That night, Erdanzi knocked on Qin Zheng and Ye Yun's door, crying and sobbing.

Qin Zheng, annoyed, opened the window and asked him what was wrong.

Erdanzi's voice trembled with tears as he tearfully accused, "Sister-in-law, you lied to me! You said no girl dislikes receiving flowers, but Qianqian is different. Not only did she dislike them, she threw flowers at me and told me to get lost. Her brother even beat me up and asked me why I didn't just die..."

Ye Yun was speechless.

Suddenly sensing something was amiss, I asked, "What flowers did you send?"

"The chrysanthemums that Old Liu grows in front of his house."

"The yellow kind and the white kind?"

"yes."

"..."

Ye Yun fell silent, a rare occurrence for her.

Shun, beating you up wouldn't be a loss at all.

Qin Zheng gritted his teeth, "Do you even know what a yellow and white chrysanthemum is?"

"How would I know?" Erdanzi was still extremely aggrieved, crying and wiping away tears. "No, I know now... I was worried she wouldn't like the wildflowers, so I specially picked some chrysanthemums from Old Liu's doorstep. Old Liu's chrysanthemums are so vibrant, I put so much effort into them!"

Ye Yun and Qin Zheng: "..."

How wonderful, I'm so love-struck.

Of course, that's a story for another time.

The midday sun was lovely.

When it was time to eat, Luo Xiujuan helplessly took her son's little hand and prepared to leave.

Having already received Ye Yun's kindness, she felt too embarrassed to shamelessly stay and freeload another meal.

It was Qin Xiang'e who called out to the mother and son.

The little guy was clearly very hungry, but he didn't dare to touch anything while sitting at the table, especially since Qin Zheng was still there. He tightly gripped Luo Xiujuan's clothes and stared at Qin Zheng menacingly, afraid that Qin Zheng would harm the mother and son.

This amused Qin Zheng.

The wolf cub is young, but he's quite wild.

Where are you going next?
