The next morning.

Without Mo Niannian calling her, Xiao Youyou dressed herself, put on her little backpack, opened the door, and came out.

Her eyes were swollen like walnuts; she must have cried for a long time last night.

Mo Niannian also didn't sleep well. She felt guilty for not taking good care of Xiaoyouyou, which caused their relationship to become so strained.

From eating breakfast and putting on shoes to getting out the car, Xiaoyouyou does everything independently.

With a tense little face, she didn't say a word to Mo Niannian.

She struggled to climb into the car, unable to get in for a long time, but she refused to let Mo Niannian carry her.

Mo Niannian's eyes were red and she looked very uncomfortable.

The dark circles and redness under my eyes that I had been trying to conceal with foundation are now almost impossible to hide.

She called her assistant and asked them to open the store first, saying she needed to calm herself down before going over.

You shouldn't bring your emotions into your work.

Mo Niannian took Xiaoyouyou to the kindergarten gate. Xiaoyouyou didn't wave goodbye to her or kiss her cheek. She silently entered the kindergarten under the teacher's guidance. The teacher asked her to say goodbye to her mother, but she didn't say a word.

Mo Niannian's heart clenched tightly. Had she really done something wrong? All these years of giving birth to her and raising her, was she really less valuable than a man she had only known for a few days?

Youyou wasn't like this before, it's all that man's fault! It was all because of his appearance that everything was ruined!

Before going to work, Mo Niannian specifically reminded the kindergarten teacher several times that no one other than her should be allowed to come to the kindergarten to look for Youyou. If she found out that Youyou had been taken away by that man, the kindergarten would have an inescapable responsibility.

Even if that man is Xiaoyouyou's father, it's still not acceptable.

***

When Mo Niannian drove to the studio, it was already past nine in the morning.

The studio has been open for a while now.

She had just stepped inside when she discovered that her studio had been transformed into a rose garden?!

The entire studio was almost completely devoid of space, leaving no room to walk around.

The room was filled with bright red roses; a rough count would reveal at least tens of thousands, or even thousands, of them.

What... is going on?

She doesn't sell flowers here!

"Sister Niannian, you're here!" Two assistants skipped and hopped over to her.

"Qing, Xue, who brought these flowers?"

The assistant gave a knowing look and whispered to Mo Niannian, "That handsome guy from yesterday is here again. This morning, as soon as we opened the door, the workers drove over in a truck with these roses."

Aqing nudged Mo Niannian with her elbow, "Niannian, how romantic! My boyfriend has never given me so many roses."

"Hehe..." Mo Niannian said coldly, "Take them all if you like."

Is it really possible?

"Why not? Even if you don't take it away, this trash will still end up in the trash can anyway. It's taking up space in the trash can."

As soon as Mo Niannian walked in, she saw Xian Mingyu sitting casually in front of her desk.

Why is that persistent ghost still here?

She walked past him irritably, choosing to ignore him.

Just as she put her bag on the shelf, the man behind her suddenly grabbed her hand and pulled her hard, causing Mo Niannian to fall awkwardly into his arms.

"What are you doing! Let go of me!" Mo Niannian struggled to get up, but how could Xian Mingyu bear to let go?

He pulled her closer to his waist, pressed his face against her neck, and gently kissed her, inhaling the faint scent of her body mixed with perfume. "You smell so good. But I prefer your original scent."

"You're crazy! I like you my foot!"

Damn it! He took advantage of me again first thing in the morning!

She pushed him away, straightened up, and straightened her clothes.

"What are you doing here again? Did you have these flowers delivered?"

"Yes, it's me." Xuan Mingyu admitted directly.

"I'll give you two choices: either you take these roses and get out of here, or I'll throw all these flowers into the garbage truck for you, and then you get out of here right now!" The quarrel with Youyou this morning had made Mo Niannian feel terrible all day. This guy was practically asking for a scolding, so of course Mo Niannian wouldn't be polite to him.

Is there a third option?

"Hmph, of course I do." Mo Niannian took out her phone. "I'll count to three. If you don't get out by then, I'll call the police and have them carry you out!"

Xian Mingyu stretched and looked nonchalant. "I'm afraid you can't do it."

"Then you should give it a try!"

Mo Niannian lit up the screen, and as soon as she pressed the first number, Xuan Mingyu quickly stood up, snatched the phone from Mo Niannian's hand, and pulled her firmly into his arms. He teasingly hooked her chin with his fingertips, "Baby, will you do me the honor of having dinner with me tonight?"

"You! Let me go! Who's your baby! Go to hell!"

Mo Niannian stomped hard on Xian Mingyu's foot, causing him to gasp in pain and forcing him to let go of her.

This woman, I haven't seen her for several years, and her temper has really grown a lot.

They either slapped his face or stepped on his feet; it was too barbaric. Where was that soft, cute, and gentle demeanor from before?

"Give me back my phone!"

"I'll give it back to you, but you have to have dinner with me tonight."

It's still broad daylight, what should we have for dinner?

Besides, she has to pick up Youyou after get off work and cook for her, so where would she find the time to eat with this lunatic?
