This is true; six-petaled peonies are very delicate and can die if they are even slightly uncomfortable.

Gu Qinan agreed, thinking that if they couldn't drive it after bringing it home, there was no point in doing so.

Zhang Xiaorou didn't think so. She felt that the person in charge looked at her with disdain, as if she wasn't even worthy of being a flower.

She felt a surge of anger, but maintained a delicate expression on her face. Biting her lip, she said to Gu Qinan, "Maybe he's afraid I'll ruin these flowers. I really don't know how to take care of them. Brother Nan, I'll choose another one."

Gu Qinan was about to agree to watch it again when he saw his girlfriend's expression and his protective instincts kicked in.

It's just a flower. If Xiaorou likes it, she'll take it back even if it doesn't bloom.

"It's okay, take this one with you first, we can look at the other flowers later, understand?"

The last four words were spoken by Gu Qinan to the person in charge of the flower shop.

this……

"What happened?"

Just as the atmosphere between the three of them was about to freeze, a deep male voice rang out.

It's Gu Tingxiao.

Gu Qinan unconsciously raised his voice when he spoke, which Gu Tingxiao heard.

"Uncle."

Upon seeing Gu Tingxiao, Gu Qinan immediately restrained himself and dared not be presumptuous in the slightest.

However, she still felt a little resentful, so she took the initiative to speak up: "Uncle, I just wanted to give my friend a flower, but they won't do it for me."

Gu Tingxiao glanced over.

The person in charge of the flower room following behind Gu Qinan quickly explained: "Mr. Gu, the flower that the young lady next to Young Master Nan wants is a six-petaled peony that Mr. Gu has been longing for for many years. Now we have only cultivated one plant, and it is so delicate and difficult to grow that it is really not suitable to move it out of the flower room."

The person in charge of the flower shop wouldn't dare to use Gu Qinan's identity to cause trouble, given the relationship between Gu Tingxiao and Gu Qinan.

So he naturally told her it was 'the young lady next to Young Master Nan,' and it was obvious which friend Gu Qinan was referring to.

Grandpa Gu loves flowers, especially exotic ones. After listening to the person in charge of the flower shop, Gu Tingxiao naturally understood his concerns.

"Change to another one."

This is what he said to Gu Qinan, his tone calm and composed.

"Uncle!"

Gu Qinan was surprised that Gu Tingxiao was so decisive, rejecting his request without hesitation.

"Let it go, Brother Nan. Don't let me and Mr. Gu have any unpleasantness. Let's choose another one."

Zhang Xiaorou's gaze never left Gu Tingxiao from the moment he appeared.

With long legs, a narrow waist, and handsome, three-dimensional features, he was as perfect as a figure in a painting. His appearance made the entire greenhouse pale in comparison.

When she heard that Gu Tingxiao had not agreed to give her flowers, she was a little disappointed, but she was so captivated by Gu Tingxiao that she didn't care about such things.

Wanting to impress Gu Tingxiao, Zhang Xiaorou immediately became sensible and reasonable, advising Gu Qinan not to argue about the flower anymore.

While leaning against Gu Qinan, she casually brushed her loose long hair behind her ear, perfectly showcasing the gentle and delicate nature of a young girl.

"Daddy~"

A soft voice sounded behind Gu Tingxiao.

Gu Tingxiao immediately turned around, bent down, and picked up the baby, the whole action was smooth and seamless.

Have you finished counting your flowers?

While the person in charge was arranging the flowers in the flower basket, Xiao Anman kept staring at them, her little hands eager to try, so Gu Tingxiao put her down.

So that she could get a better look by moving closer.

While watching, Gu Tingxiao taught her to count. Xiao Anman had a particularly good memory and could remember more numbers than he expected, so he taught her a few more numbers, which Xiao Anman learned with great interest.

"It's just for fun."

Back in Gu Tingxiao's warm embrace, Xiao Anman immediately wrapped her arms around his neck comfortably, being incredibly affectionate.

Gu Qinan, who was standing behind Gu Tingxiao, was instantly petrified.

Dad, Dad?!

His maternal uncle?

Zhang Xiaorou was completely disillusioned; such a handsome man was already someone else's husband?

"Uncle, this child?"

Gu Qinan felt like this world was a bit surreal. Not long ago, the Gu family was in turmoil because of his uncle's marriage, and now the baby is already here??

They can even call him "Dad" now?

"Your sister."

Gu Tingxiao held the child in his arms, his tone as low and flat as ever.

Two completely clear attitudes towards Xiao Anman and towards others.

……younger sister

Gu Qinan was dumbfounded. Looking at the soft little bundle of milk in Gu Tingxiao's arms, was it really her uncle's child?!

"I will go back to the old house next Saturday."

Now that Gu Qinan knows, and things at the old house are about to change, Gu Tingxiao plans to let Xiao Anman make a formal appearance at the Gu family.

"Oh, okay, sure."

Gu Qinan was completely stunned and could barely hear what Gu Tingxiao was saying.

Holding Xiao Anman, Gu Tingxiao walked past them without glancing at them.

Behind them was another person in charge carrying a basket full of flowers.

...

After returning home from her date, Zhang Xiaorou felt increasingly uneasy, as if something was amiss.

I looked up those photos she took in the greenhouse online.

She was completely stunned when she learned the result.

Those flowers...

It's so expensive!

Moreover, she learned from the casual conversation of the staff in the flower room that all those flowers were given to the little child in Mr. Gu's arms.

Compared to the peony whose name and price she couldn't find, even just the basket of small flowers he saw was probably worth no less than five figures!
