Chapter 855: Camellia Flower Language How Dare You Despise My Love for You

After hearing Li Jinxing say that the gift was in his room and asked her to go with him to get it, Gu Wanqiu became curious. She also felt that Li Jinxing had become a little too proud of himself recently and had forgotten his duties. As a "wolfdog", he actually dared to greet his master.

Gu Wanqiu curled her lips, her lips slightly raised, and she was not going to agree.

Gu Wanqiu crossed her arms over her chest and thought: You prepared a gift for me, why do you want me to go to your room to get it?

As if he had noticed Gu Wanqiu's "tsundere" thoughts, Li Jinxing changed his tone and said in a low voice: "Please."

Meeting his pleading eyes, Gu Wanqiu put down her hands and thought, "Forget it, just this once, I'll listen to him. I probably won't see him again in the future anyway."

After being with Li Jinxing for so many years, even a fish would develop feelings for him, let alone a person. Although she always treated Li Jinxing as a dog, she had to admit that she relied on him a lot.

"All right."

Seeing that she agreed, Li Jinxing's expression relaxed. Li Jinxing's room was also on the second floor, in the corner. His room was some distance away from Gu Wanqiu's room.

When going upstairs, the boat swayed with the waves. Gu Wanqiu, who was walking in front, was unstable and sometimes leaned backward. She grabbed the handrail in time, but was still startled by the shaking. Fortunately, Li Jinxing followed closely behind her, observing her steps, and reached out to stop her when she leaned backward.

Gu Wanqiu had a scent on her body, and no one knew what kind of perfume she had sprayed on. Even after being blown by the sea breeze for so long, the scent did not disappear.

"Be careful."

It was the first time that Gu Wanqiu was so close to Li Jinxing, their chests almost touching, and they could feel each other's heartbeats and breathing. She felt inexplicably uncomfortable. It was obviously cold at night with the sea breeze, but she suddenly felt hotter than during the day.

Gu Wanqiu hated this feeling of being out of control. She held the handrail tightly and gently pushed Li Jinxing away, pushing him away. She escaped from the man's arms and immediately felt relieved.

Her hair was a little messy due to the wind. Gu Wanqiu reached out to tuck the hair that blocked her view behind her ears. She had a pair of tassel diamond earrings on her earlobes. That was a birthday gift from Gong Qing. The colorful diamonds were connected together, just like wearing stars on her ears.

Her fingertips lightly touched the diamond tassel, which was very beautiful... Li Jinxing couldn't help but stare at it. As Gu Wanqiu walked up, he quickly regained his composure.

"What gift did you prepare for me?"

"You'll know when you get there, Miss."

Gu Wanqiu stood at the door of the room, waiting for Li Jinxing to open it. As soon as the door opened, she was stunned by everything inside. Li Jinxing had actually prepared various colorful lights. Unlike the dim outside, it was as romantic as another world inside, like the Milky Way. There were also many flowers decorated in the room.

Gu Wanqiu walked in and looked around. She reached out and picked up a flower on the table and asked, "What kind of flower is this?"

“Camellia.”

"Does it have any meaning?" Gu Wanqiu put it to her nose and sniffed it, and could smell a faint fragrance of tea.

Li Jinxing thought of the language of camellia and after a long silence, he shook his head. "It's just an ordinary flower, without any meaning."

Gu Wanqiu stared at the camellia in her palm. She had seen people give roses, tulips, lilies, and sunflowers as gifts... but this was the first time she saw someone give camellias as a gift.

Li Jinxing asked, "Miss, what kind of flowers do you like?"

"Me?" Gu Wanqiu replied, "Roses, those bright red roses. I like them very much, but I don't like receiving roses."

Li Jinxing was slightly stunned and didn't understand what Gu Wanqiu meant. This was the first time he heard that Gu Wanqiu liked roses.

There were many flowers planted in the Gu family garden, but there were no roses. The servants would replace the vases with fresh flowers every day as decoration, but there was never a trace of roses.

The only time it appeared was when Gu Wanqiu punished him by making him hug a thorny rose with his upper body naked, watching him get bruised all over by the thorns.

If you like it, why don’t you plant it? If you like it, why don’t you want to receive it?

The first thing people think of when they see roses is that they are given to lovers. The language of the flower represents "love". Gu Wanqiu doesn't want to receive one. Is she afraid of getting love and then losing it?

"Where's my gift?"

"Here." Li Jinxing walked over, picked up a decorated box and handed it to Gu Wanqiu.

The decorative box alone was very exquisite. Gu Wanqiu untied the bow on it and opened the box. Inside was a watch, a black chain watch that looked more like a piece of jewelry, inlaid with diamonds and gems.

Gu Wanqiu recognized this brand of watches; the cheapest one started at six figures.

Her initials GWQ are engraved on the back of the watch, making it obvious that it is a custom-made watch.

Where did Li Jinxing get so much money? He actually bought her such an expensive watch.

Gu Wanqiu didn't ask him where the money came from, nor did she accept his favor. She just took a look at the watch and threw it into the box.

"What do you mean by giving me a watch on my birthday? Don't you know that it's unlucky?" Gu Wanqiu looked at him with a sneer.

A watch represents a clock. Giving a watch as a gift means giving the end, doesn’t it?

Li Jinxing didn't think about these things. He only knew that the watch was very beautiful and would look great on Gu Wanqiu's slender wrist. Whenever he thought of her wearing this watch and looking down at the time, the blood in his body seemed to boil.

Li Jinxing didn't know that there was any bad meaning in it. He gave Gu Wanqiu a watch with good intentions. He just hoped that she would think of him every minute and that he could be with her every minute. It was that simple.

Seeing Gu Wanqiu's unhappy look, Li Jinxing felt confused. "I didn't give it to you on your birthday. If you think the meaning is not good, just give me one dollar. It's like buying it, not a gift..."

Gu Wanqiu couldn't help but smile as she watched Li Jinxing's frantic explanation. She picked up the watch again and handed it to Li Jinxing: "Put it on me."

Li Jinxing took the watch and carefully put it on Gu Wanqiu's slender white wrist. The watch was specially made by him, and the chain length was just right. The black chain tied around Gu Wanqiu's wrist formed a sharp contrast between black and white, making her hand look even whiter.

It’s true that Li Jinxing has a pretty good eye. Gu Wanqiu raised her wrist and looked at the dial, feeling that the black was like Li Jinxing’s eyes.

She reached to her neck, took off the clavicle chain and threw it into Li Jinxing's hands.

"This is……"

Gu Wanqiu snorted: "If you don't have a dollar, I'll just exchange this necklace with you."

Li Jinxing tightly grasped the necklace in his hand and looked at the red wine he had prepared.

"Miss, can you have a drink with me? Just as a practice drink."
