Shen Niannian took out her phone, wanting to message Duan Ze directly, but…
She opened the chat history, which was filled with green text. She had already explained to Duan Ze, but Duan Ze... read it but didn't reply.
Time ticked by, and Shen Niannian stood hesitantly at the door, finally sighing and turning to leave.
The room was dark. There weren't many people living in the building, so it was especially quiet at night. That's why Duan Ze could hear Shen Niannian's footsteps as she left.
Duan Ze gave a sarcastic smile, then turned on the light and went to the kitchen; his stomach was more important.
However, just as Duan Ze finished cooking his instant noodles and was about to eat them, he saw something shaking at the window.
Duan Ze looked closely and saw a small wooden puppet with a light on, on which were written the three words "I'm sorry". The little wooden puppet was swaying in front of him, making Duan Ze dizzy.
After a while, the little wooden puppet was lifted up. Duan Ze didn't leave the kitchen. Instead, he stood by the window, eating instant noodles while watching what other tricks Shen Niannian could pull.
A minute later, a string of purple hyacinths tied with a rope floated in the air above.
The purple hyacinth's message is: I'm sorry.
Duan Ze was both annoyed and amused.
Immediately afterwards, another small rope appeared by the window, tied with a small speaker. With a "rip," Shen Niannian's soft, delicate voice came from the speaker: "Brother, I was really wrong, please forgive me?"
"Please give me a chance to apologize. I really didn't mean it. I've been dealing with them at home for days. Brother, please, please forgive me..."
The sound wasn't loud, but it was still a speaker, and people from upstairs and downstairs came out to look.
The key point is that Shen Niannian's voice is so beautiful...
Duan Ze put down the instant noodles, opened the window, brought in the speaker, and turned it to mute.
Shen Niannian noticed the rope had broken, glanced down, and quickly picked up her phone.
Duan Ze: Get down.
Shen Niannian's eyes lit up; all the novelties she had prepared were worth it.
Shen Niannian ran quickly to the living room, picked up the large bunch of hyacinths, grabbed the insulated lunchbox, and ran downstairs.
The doorbell rang soon after.
Duan Ze went to open the door, and a large bunch of hyacinths was thrust directly in front of him. He didn't see Shen Niannian's head, but he saw the flowers and a pair of fair and slender legs.
Shen Niannian: "Brother Duan, I really didn't mean to stand you up. Please forgive me. You can punish me however you want."
Before Duan Ze could answer, Shen Niannian's slightly chubby face appeared in front of him, with shallow dimples on her cheeks and her eyes curved into crescents, her smile carrying a hint of apology.
"Brother, please, please forgive me~".
"Look! I brought you something delicious!"
The lunchbox had four layers, all prepared in advance by Shen Niannian. It wasn't made by her, but she personally drove to buy it. However, the mung bean cake on the first layer was made by her.
Duan Ze accepted the large bouquet of hyacinths expressionlessly: "Come in."
He was actually too lazy to pay attention to her, but those hyacinths were just too heavy. Who would apologize by buying a bouquet of flowers that they could barely carry?
Duan Ze turned around and walked towards the room.
Also... this is the first time Duan Ze has ever received flowers from a woman.
Shen Niannian is a silly and cute girl. Duan Ze reasonably suspects that there is a strategist behind Shen Niannian who is plotting the flower delivery.
Shen Niannian breathed a sigh of relief; being able to enter meant that the first step was complete.
Shen Niannian couldn't help but think that Luo Qingyuan's idea was really good. If it weren't for Luo Qingyuan, how would she have thought of sending flowers to apologize?
Upon entering the house, Chen Niannian quickly changed her shoes and headed towards the kitchen. As soon as she got close, she smelled the aroma of instant noodles.
Shen Niannian: "Don't you dislike instant noodles?"
Duan Ze picked up his half-eaten instant noodles and said, "Don't you even look at the time? How could I possibly have time to cook?"
Just as Duan Ze was about to continue eating, Shen Niannian rushed over and snatched the remaining instant noodles from his hand.
Duan Ze calmly looked at her: "What are you doing?"
Shen Niannian directly grabbed his hand and led him to sit at the dining table, quickly placing the pastries and dishes from the lunchbox in front of him.
Mung bean cake, sweet and sour pork ribs, braised pork with preserved mustard greens, black chicken soup, and a small bowl of rice.
It looks really lavish, all meat.
Shen Niannian handed him the chopsticks with a smile: "Try them, I did a lot of research before buying them."
Duan Ze glanced at Shen Niannian and asked, "Did you buy the strategy guide, or did you have someone spy on you to find out?"
These are all dishes that Duan Ze likes to eat. Shen Niannian has not known him for long. How could she know these dishes accurately?
Moreover, Duan Ze had already noticed that the atmosphere at home was not right when he was at home. He was not stupid. He asked Duan Renji, but Duan Renji only said one sentence: "Aze, there are many things that your older brother cannot tell you, but Shen Niannian is indeed not an ordinary girl. You have always been steady, so think it over carefully."
What was he considering? Duan Ze thought, was whether or not to continue developing a relationship with Shen Niannian.
If Shen Niannian continues to be secretive today, he won't bother to go along with her anymore.
Judging from Duan Ze's expression, Shen Niannian was somewhat apprehensive. There was nothing she could do; Duan Ze's aura was too powerful, it was outrageous. How could a mere employee bring her such a sense of oppression?
Shen Niannian resigned herself to her fate, lowered her head, and confessed: "Luo Qingyuan and I are best friends. I came to find you because I want to become her sister-in-law."
Duan Ze's hand holding the chopsticks trembled, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily: "You got close to me because of Luo Qingyuan?"
Although he had suspected it before, Duan Ze was still amused by the situation: "Shen Niannian, is your brain full of water? Why don't you just marry Luo Qingyuan directly?"
Shen Niannian lowered her head and retorted, "My mind is filled with thoughts of you."
Duan Ze was choked for a moment and didn't know what to say, so he could only pick up his chopsticks and eat.
Shen Niannian silently stood up, brought over the instant noodles that Duan Ze hadn't finished eating, and sat down opposite him to eat with chopsticks.
Duan Ze's eyelids were twitching, and he reached out to grab the instant noodle bowl.
Why eat instant noodles when you have rice?
As it turns out, Shen Niannian is really possessive of her food. She simply lifted the instant noodle bowl away and said, "I want to eat. You eat yours, and I'll eat mine."
Duan Ze looked speechless, and after a few seconds of silence, said, "Let's eat."
Chen Niannian slurped up her noodles quickly, her voice muffled: "The food is bad, I don't like it."
And so, Duan Ze watched as Shen Niannian finished slurping his instant noodles.
Duan Ze's serious expression almost crumbled; he simply couldn't stand Shen Niannian's gluttonous behavior any longer, so he lowered his head and quietly ate his meal.
Shen Niannian looked at him several times before finally speaking with satisfaction:
"that…"
