Chapter 481 You are as cold as ice!
"Flower basket?"
Liu Mengmeng said in surprise.
Liu Taotao rushed out of the house upon hearing the sound, still holding the feather duster that his mother had just used to dust him.
At first glance, it seems that the person has bad intentions and is about to start a fight.
When the two masters saw this, they immediately nodded and bowed to apologize.
"You must be Mr. Liu, right? I'm so sorry! Your order is quite special, and our warehouse got the bouquet styles mixed up, so we've been wasting time trying to re-order it..."
As he spoke, one of the masters took out a compensation note and said, "We have already refunded 60% of your payment, and also prepared an additional apology!"
Liu Taotao stared at the list, his mind racing with calculations.
A 60% refund? Plus a gift, if you round it up, doesn't that mean it's free?
"Ahem...well," Liu Taotao said with a reluctant look.
"The flower basket was originally meant to be placed at the door so that distinguished guests could feel our home's warmth as soon as they entered. Now that everyone has entered the house..."
He deliberately dragged out the tone and glanced towards his master.
The master immediately understood and presented the gift box with both hands.
"This is a gift box! And it comes with a VIP coupon!"
"Alright! Since you guys are so nice, I'll let it go. This won't happen again!"
Liu Taotao's expression changed instantly and he took the gift box.
"Please place the flower basket at the door for me, and let my sister take the bouquet!"
"Okay, okay."
The master nodded gratefully, and after receiving clear instructions, he immediately asked his companions behind him to get busy.
When Liu Ma and Liu Mengmeng's best friend heard this conversation, they looked at each other in confusion.
"Liu Taotao, are you crazy? You actually ordered a flower basket and a bouquet???"
Liu Mengmeng didn't come to her senses until she held the bouquet in her hands. She felt terrible.
What she held in her hand was not flowers, but a creative vegetable bouquet, which included broccoli, kale, carrots, corn, bell peppers, hot peppers, eggplants, etc., and was also paired with accessories such as champagne roses and eucalyptus leaves.
Although it is not common, it has a sense of half romance and half fireworks.
"That's right! This will show how much I value Boss Su! We can even take a photo together at the door as a souvenir later!"
Liu Taotao had a smug look on his face, with his head held high and his chest puffed out, completely unaware of how outrageous his behavior was.
As he spoke excitedly, he carefully examined the standing flower basket.
This flower basket is indeed very exquisitely made.
In a conspicuous position on the flower basket, there are several photos of Su Chen's previous business operations in different locations.
These photos were taken with high quality. Each one is a close-up of Su Chen, clearly capturing his expression when he is concentrating on cooking or communicating with customers.
Needless to say, these photos were naturally "stolen" by Liu Taotao from the fan club.
When he saw these photos, he thought they were particularly suitable, so he arranged them in the flower basket without hesitation.
Mother Liu was speechless watching Liu Taotao's actions and immediately shouted towards the kitchen.
"Old Liu, come out quickly. Your son has gone crazy. Can you help him?"
Upon hearing this, Father Liu came out of the kitchen reluctantly.
Then, his old face fell and he turned to look at Liu Ma helplessly.
"What do you mean by my son? Isn't he your son? You can take care of him if you want."
Upon hearing this, a long-lost sense of familiarity surged in Liu Ma's heart, as if she had returned to the days when Liu Taotao was a naughty boy in junior high school.
At this moment, I suddenly felt the urge to unseal that long-forgotten set of chain stick techniques.
She took a step forward and snatched the feather duster from Liu Taotao's hand without saying a word.
???
Liu Taotao secretly thought that something was wrong.
He moved to the side and hinted to Mother Liu with his eyes that there were outsiders present.
Seeing this, Liu Ma took several deep breaths and tried hard to suppress the impulse in her heart.
After all, she still cares a lot about her reputation and doesn't want to lose face in front of outsiders.
However, the loud commotion at the door eventually attracted the attention of the neighbors next door.
With a creaking sound, the security door opposite slowly opened.
Neighbor Aunt Huang curiously poked her head out and looked around.
Aunt Huang took a look and saw that the people from the wedding company had finished their service and were about to leave, and there were exquisite flower baskets placed at the door.
Looking into the room again, a large bouquet of flowers was very eye-catching. Mother Liu was holding a feather duster, and Father Liu was holding a rag. The whole family looked like they were doing a big cleaning.
Aunt Huang instantly showed an expression of sudden realization, and then the expression on her face immediately turned into a warm smile mixed with some gossip.
"Hey, are you doing anything at home today?"
"Has Taotao found a partner and is coming over to our house today? Or is he getting engaged? You guys are making it quite a grand occasion!"
Aunt Huang opened the door and walked out, her face full of curiosity. She looked left and right, then said to Aunt Liu with a smile on her face, "Hey, whose girl is this? I remember last week when we were square dancing together, you were still worrying about Taotao's marriage."
"I told him at the time, 'Don't worry, Taotao is a very independent kid. If he finds someone he likes, he'll definitely settle down quickly. Look, that's exactly what happened!'"
As soon as Aunt Huang opened her mouth, she started to have a lot of questions.
"By the way, how old is the girl? Where is she from? What does she do for a living?"
When Liu Ma heard this, her face turned green.
If this was really as Aunt Huang thought, that Liu Taotao had found a partner, she would have no objection even if the whole house was decorated like a palace, let alone a few more flower baskets.
But that’s not the case at all!
Mother Liu was so angry that she tightly grasped the feather duster, but she still had to force out a smile that was uglier than crying and said, "No, Sister Huang, you misunderstood."
"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding?"
Aunt Huang was still smiling, completely unaware of Aunt Liu's embarrassment. She kept talking to herself, "Oh, it would be great if we could settle it sooner. Maybe next year we'll have a grandson in our arms. Life would be so blissful then."
As she spoke, Aunt Huang casually reached out and flipped through the flower basket in front of her, and saw the photo sandwiched in the middle of the basket.
When she saw this, she was stunned.
Why is he a man?
The smile on Aunt Huang's face froze for a moment, and her expression looked very strange.
But her mind raced, and she immediately remembered what Liu Ma had just said about "misunderstanding." A look of sudden enlightenment appeared on her face again, and she said, "Oh, I see. It's Mengmeng! I was wondering why the photo showed a man."
When Liu Mengmeng heard this, she subconsciously retorted, "It wasn't me, it was my brother! He did all this!"
She didn't want anyone to misunderstand that she was the one who did this kind of psychotic behavior.
Aunt Huang's smile froze completely on her face. The corners of her mouth twitched a few times. After hesitating for a long time, she stammered, "Today... today is your brother's job?"
