Chapter 694: How to Flirt with Girls
Liu Lan was stunned and said incoherently, "Can it be calculated this way?"
Yu Zhan smiled slyly, "What else? The general public opinion is that when couples are in love, women suffer losses and men take advantage."
"But I don't feel like I'm at a disadvantage," Liu Lan muttered.
"If I had ruined your reputation in ancient times, wouldn't you have suffered a loss? Who told me that men and women should not touch each other and strongly urged me to keep my distance from her?"
"My thoughts have kept pace with the times. I am a modern person and cannot stick to the old ways."
"In that case, there's nothing to worry about if you and I live together. Modern couples will live together after dating for a year or two." Even if they don't live together, they've done what they should do. Yu Zhan thought about this but didn't say it, fearing that it would scare Liu Lan. "We also have to keep up with the times. Besides, we've known each other for more than a year."
When it comes to setting traps, Liu Lan will never be Yu Zhan's match. Yu Zhan can lead her into the trap with just a few words.
Yu Zhan's reasons were very sufficient, and finally he threw out his trump card, saying in a slightly hesitant and sad tone, "I live alone in such a big house, and I often feel lonely. Although I have two dogs to keep me company, they are not human after all, and they can't talk to me. I have been living alone since I was fourteen. Logically, I should be used to this kind of loneliness, but I don't know why the older I get, the more afraid I am of being alone. Sigh..."
Having said that, Yu Zhan sighed heavily. He didn't even look at Liu Lan, but lowered his eyes, as if immersed in a desolate mood.
...
...
Liu Lan had a very soft heart. Every time she thought of Yu Zhan who lost his parents at the age of ten, she felt sad for him. In her mind emerged a scene of a young boy, standing alone in a gorgeous and empty house. Apart from servants and drivers, he had no relatives around him. Every day he ate alone, read alone, and rested alone. Under normal circumstances, a person's personality would definitely be affected, but he did not become withdrawn and silent because of this. Instead, he placed his spiritual hope on his pets.
It is hard to imagine what Yu Zhan would be like now without the dog.
"I..." Liu Lan almost blurted out "I'll accompany you", but fortunately the last bit of reason pulled her back. She had to understand what it meant to live with a man.
"Can you please let me think about it?" she said with a hint of pleading and apology in her tone.
"I don't mean to force you. It's okay if you don't want to."
Yu Zhan was helpless, silly girl, even if they really lived together, he would not do anything to her without her permission.
Yu Zhan's suggestion made Liu Lan's heart confused. She couldn't concentrate on the words. It was getting late, so she said "good night" to Yu Zhan and went to the bedroom to rest.
The next day, Valentine's Day.
As soon as she got up, Liu Lan felt the festive atmosphere.
First, there was a small vase on her bedside table, with a red rose in it. She remembered that there were no flowers before she went to bed last night. She didn't know when Yu Zhan sneaked in and put the vase and flowers there.
What the netizens said was right. Yu Zhan is a flower-sending maniac and prepared Valentine's Day gifts early in the morning.
Although there was only one flower, Liu Lan still felt a little surprised. She leaned forward and smelled it. The flower was very fresh and fragrant.
After she washed up, changed her clothes, and walked into the living room, she saw a larger bouquet of red roses on the coffee table.
Yu Zhan had already prepared breakfast. Every time Liu Lan stayed at his house before, he would prepare breakfast for the next day in advance. His breakfast was very simple, with a few pieces of freshly baked bread, butter, milk and cereal, a glass of juice or coffee, and some fruits.
Liu Lan had no problem with this purely Western-style breakfast. No matter what she ate, it was better than when she was in the cold palace. She thought this simple and quick breakfast was good, saving time and not having to clean up the kitchen.
Yu Zhan was wearing black home cotton trousers and a grey T-shirt. He was making coffee. The aroma of the coffee spread into the living room, overpowering the scent of the roses.
Liu Lan asked him, "When did you buy the flowers?"
