Chapter 40 A bouquet of flowers caused a murder
At a high-end jewelry exhibition in Sanya, the spacious venue was filled with a variety of flowers freshly airlifted in, and security personnel and bodyguards in black suits on both sides were on high alert.
A wide variety of fine jewelry glitters in bright bulletproof glass cases.
Lu Yanzhi never comes to jewelry exhibitions, and this time he came entirely because of Zhou Qingti.
Several businessmen who knew Lu Yanzhi were surprised to see him in such an occasion: "Mr. Lu? Is it really you?"
"Are you also interested in jewelry now? Are you planning to develop in this field?"
Lu Yanzhi had a polite smile on his face: "I came to buy a gift for my wife."
"Madam?" How could such a big event as Lu Yanzhi's marriage have no news at all?
Lu Yanzhi had heard from his wife about having a girlfriend.
When we heard that she wasn't a formally married wife, no one paid much attention. We didn't expect that they were already married?
Lu Yanzhi exchanged a few words with them and then left. He had his eyes on a set of high-end jewelry from the PIAGET Rose Passion series.
The necklace and earrings are in the shape of camellia, with three diamond tassels dotted with a few emeralds.
It has her favorite green elements, which is both grand and luxurious.
Lu Yanzhi pointed, and Assistant Dong immediately understood, take it!
The mission had been completed and Lu Yanzhi did not stay long. He wanted to finish his work in Hainan and go back early tomorrow.
…
It was a sunny Friday. Zhou Qingti planned to leave work early, and Lu Yanzhi said he would go home tonight.
When she was packing desserts, Lu Yanzhi appeared at the door of the store. Zhou Qingti was a little surprised, put down what she was holding and walked towards him.
The woman's eyes sparkled, and her voice was light: "You're back?"
Lu Yanzhi was very satisfied with her performance and came to see her as soon as he got off the plane.
"I'm here to take you home."
Zhou Qingti poured him a glass of lemonade: "Okay, I'm just about to pack a dessert to take home, your favorite salted butter."
"I'm going to the supermarket to buy a bottle of dark soy sauce. My aunt said she's out of it at home. Please wait for me here for a while." After Zhou Qingti finished speaking, he went out and walked towards the supermarket across the street.
Lu Yanzhi noticed the two bouquets of flowers on the table. One of them didn't look very fresh and didn't seem to be bought by Zhou Qingti.
"Who bought these two bouquets of flowers?" Lu Yanzhi asked Xiao Li who was standing next to him.
"He's the boss's classmate, and he's been to the store twice." Xiao Li said truthfully.
"Male classmate?"
The glass door was pushed open, and a man holding flowers walked in. As soon as he entered, he asked Xiao Li: "Hello, is Qingti here?"
Lu Yanzhi turned to look at him. The flowers in his arms were the same as those in the vase. It seemed that he was the male classmate.
When Xiao Li saw this scene, he was a little overwhelmed and thought that this person came at the right time.
"I don't know what you want to talk to my wife about." Lu Yanzhi had a cold face and his tone was obviously not very good.
Ke Yu frowned: "Who are you?"
Lu Yanzhi put one hand in his pocket and tapped the counter twice with the other hand: "I'm Zhou Qingti's husband. I think she might not be very good at rejecting others, so..."
Ke Yu didn't believe it at first. The last time Zhou Qingti refused his invitation to the movies, she said she was married.
He thought it was her excuse, she was single just last week, how could she get married in just a week.
It had been less than half a year since she and Lin Xiye broke up
It is difficult to find a new boyfriend and get married in this period of time.
Now it seems to be true. Ke Yu said sorry and turned away.
Xiao Li's CPU burned out next to me. Isn't he my boyfriend? How did he become my husband?
Is this the adult world? It's so complicated.
I secretly glanced at the proprietress, her eyes were so scary, as if she was going to eat me.
When Zhou Qingti came back, he noticed that Lu Yanzhi looked unhappy, so he casually asked, "What's wrong?"
Lu Yanzhi didn't answer, but took the small cake she had packed and said, "Nothing, let's go home."
After getting in the car, he asked casually, "Isn't the bouquet designed by your florist at home beautiful?"
Zhou Qingti was driving, staring straight ahead as he replied, "I like it."
Lu Yanzhi looked at her serious face, as if trying to discern some clues from it: "Then why not ask him to design two bouquets for your store every month."
Zhou Qingti turned to look at him: "Are you crazy? Then all the sales revenue of my shop will have to go to the florist."
It turned out that he thought it was too expensive, “I’ll pay for it.”
Zhou Qingti slowed down: "Lu Yanzhi, you don't spend your money like this, you don't need it."
Zhou Qingti felt a little sorry for the money. It would be better to give it to her instead of handing over 20,000 yuan to the florist every month.
"Then let the flower shop outside send two ordinary bouquets every month?" Lu Yanzhi has not given up yet.
"No need." She felt that flower decorations were unnecessary as there were already enough decorations in the store.
Lu Yanzhi was a little angry because she was always rejected. She would rather accept flowers from her male classmates than the ones he bought.
The car fell silent for a moment. Zhou Qingti thought he was tired and didn't dare to breathe loudly along the way.
The two of them went upstairs in silence, and Zhou Qingti took two steps ahead to open the door.
Auntie was already busy in the kitchen. Lu Yanzhi's luggage was still at the entrance, and there were two jewelry boxes on the island.
The diamond sparkled under the light, and Zhou Qingti saw it at a glance.
"Did you buy it?" Lu Yanzhi told her that there was a jewelry exhibition in Sanya.
Lu Yanzhi changed his shoes expressionlessly: "Hmm."
Zhou Qingti picked up the jewelry box: "It's so beautiful, is this for me?"
"Yeah." Lu Yanzhi walked to the living room on his own. Fortunately, he asked Assistant Dong to come back in advance to help him set up the table as a surprise for Zhou Qingti.
As a result, Zhou Qingti went to the bar and accepted flowers from male classmates during the days when he was away.
She doesn't even consider him her husband in her heart.
Zhou Qingti was still holding up the diamond necklace under the light, admiring it: "It's really beautiful, thank you."
Forgive her for being vulgar in nature. It's hard not to be moved by this kind of thing.
Zhou Qingti knew that this was something to be worn when attending a charity banquet, so he carefully took it off and placed it in his hand.
The warm fingertips touched the cold diamond. It turns out that beautiful things are always cold.
She put the earrings on gently and walked in front of Lu Yanzhi. "Do they look good?"
Lu Yanzhi shifted his gaze from the phone screen to her ears, looked at them for two seconds, and then quickly looked away: "Beautiful."
Zhou Qingti was still immersed in the joy of wearing high-end jewelry and did not notice Lu Yanzhi's low mood.
She took the necklace to the cloakroom and placed it in the most conspicuous place in her jewelry cabinet.
After admiring themselves in front of the mirror for a while, their aunt called them to eat.
Zhou Qingti was grateful to Lu Yanzhi and even picked up some food for him twice.
Lu Yanzhi felt a little better and went to the gym with her at around eight o'clock.
Compared to Zhou Qingti, a newbie who came here for the first time, her physical fitness has improved significantly.
Considering that Lu Yanzhi was a little tired after just getting home today, she took him home after only practicing for an hour.
Before returning to the room, she said to him considerately, "You've been busy on the business trip these days. Go to bed early."
Lu Yanzhi tossed and turned in bed late at night, unable to sleep. Why didn't she reject the male classmate's advances? Why didn't she accept the flowers I sent her? How could she pretend nothing had happened?
