The sound of rain outside gradually subsided. The previously gloomy sky gradually brightened.

As the clock struck six, the sensor doorbell of the flower shop rang.

Welcome!

Liu Nian and Yu Zhi Nian looked towards the door together.

Su Ke was standing at the shop entrance, holding a black umbrella, looking at the two people inside. His expression seemed rather unpleasant.

He was also carrying a bag in his hand.

When Liu Nian saw him, her smile widened, and she got up and ran to the door.

"Why didn't you come in when you got here!"

"I'm afraid it will affect you." His tone was indifferent, and seemed to carry a hint of sarcasm.

Liu Nian held his hand, smiling ingratiatingly: "What do you mean by 'affecting' or 'affecting'? He just came in to take shelter from the rain."

Su Ke turned his face to the side, refusing to look at Liu Nian, but he didn't pull away from Liu Nian's hand.

Liu Nian took the things from his hands: "What did you buy? It's so heavy!"

"Sink it back!" With that, Su Ke closed the umbrella, shook off the rainwater, and hung it on the rack by the door.

He took the things from Liu Nian's hands and, taking the initiative, led her into the store.

When Liu Nian jogged over to greet Su Ke, she had already vaguely guessed their relationship, but when she saw their hands clasped together, a fleeting look of disappointment crossed her eyes.

Liu Nian knew that Su Ke seemed to mind Yu Zhi Nian quite a bit, and not wanting him to misunderstand, she took the initiative to introduce them.

"Su Su, his name is Yu Zhinian. He's from the same school as you, a third-year student, your senior." Then she looked at Yu Zhinian and introduced Su Ke. "This is my boyfriend, Su Ke." She smiled especially sweetly as she introduced him.

Su Ke blushed slightly because of the way she addressed him, and her discomfort subsided considerably. She also looked at Yu Zhinian without the annoyance she had felt earlier.

He extended his hand and shook hands with the other person in a natural and generous manner, his tone cool: "Hello."

Yu Zhinian was very well-mannered. Although he knew that Su Ke didn't like him, he didn't think anything of it and returned the handshake in a generous manner.

His tone was equally indifferent: "Hello."

The rain outside had stopped, and Yu Zhinian got up to say goodbye.

"Thank you for taking me in today. I'll head back now, but I'll come back often when I have time." His tone and expression softened involuntarily when he was with Liu Nian.

This made Su Ke, who had been waiting on the sidelines, very uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do. Liu Nian was outstanding, and equally attractive. Whether it was her younger brother or her peers, there were bound to be people who coveted her.

Before deciding to be with Liu Nian, he had already prepared for the rivals he might face in love and was ready to fight at any time.

He wasn't afraid of the bad romances that Liu Nian might have; what he feared was that Liu Nian might be taken away by someone else without his knowledge.

After Zhi Nian left, Liu Nian looked at Su Ke, who was still standing to the side.

Are there self-study sessions in the evening?

Su Ke nodded: "From seven to nine o'clock."

Liu Nian looked at what he was holding; it turned out to be vegetables.

"Did you go grocery shopping?"

"I happened to pass by a supermarket on my way here, so I bought some things."

Liu Nian was a little speechless, because she had also bought some, but the deliveryman still hadn't brought it over.

"I'm going upstairs to cook, it'll be ready soon." After saying that, Su Ke lowered his head and kissed her forehead before carrying the things upstairs.

"good."

At this time of day, the flower shop gets quite a lot of customers, mostly university students from the neighborhood.

Liu Nian canceled the takeout order and tidied up the counter. Just then, a girl walked into the flower shop.

The sensor at the door beeped on time: "Welcome!"

As soon as the girl came in, before she even saw anyone, she called out, "Sister, give me a bunch of baby's breath."

Liu Nian immediately stepped forward, greeting him with a smile.

"Okay! Here's a small stool, why don't you sit down and wait a bit? I'll wrap it up for you right away."

"It's alright, it's alright. Standing here for a while isn't tiring, and it's good exercise."

After hearing what they said, Liu Nian didn't say anything more and quickly started arranging and wrapping the flowers. The whole process took only three or four minutes.

"Here you go, wishing you a happy day too, miss!"

The girl smiled as she accepted the flowers, simultaneously scanning the QR code on the counter with her phone: "How much is it, sister?"

Liu Nian: "It's 188 in total. Miss is so pretty and cute, you only need to pay 180."

Everyone likes to be praised. This young lady buying flowers is no exception.

Her small, single-eyelid eyes were wide with laughter, her smile revealing her teeth.

"Thank you for the compliment, sister." Just as she finished speaking, the payment notification sounded. "Wishing you booming business and abundant wealth."

Liu Nian chuckled and saw the person out before returning.

Before long, several more boys and girls arrived one after another, keeping Liu Nian so busy that she didn't even have time to sit down.

When Su Ke finished preparing dinner and came down to call her, she was already busy at work.

"Sister, how much longer until my bouquet is ready? I'm in a bit of a rush," a boy said anxiously while looking at his phone.

Liu Nian is currently doing a makeover for a girl, but it's not finished yet.

This wasn't the first time she'd been pressured by customers about her luck, so she remained calm.

She chuckled and teased him, "Is your girlfriend getting impatient?"

The boy blushed slightly. "Not yet. I'm going to confess my feelings tonight, so I'm in a bit of a rush."

Liu Nian nodded, finished wrapping the bouquet in his hand, and handed it to the girl, saying, "Wishing you smiles and a good mood every day!"

"Thank you, sister." The girl happily accepted the payment, then skipped away.
