Chapter 621 Watching a movie is not as good as watching a whale
"What?" Zhou Qiao asked instinctively.
"Just open it and you'll see," Qin Feng said awkwardly.
All told, this was the first time he had ever given flowers to a girl.
Zhou Qiao glanced at him again, and finally opened the box.
In an instant, a delightful fragrance wafted up, and a cluster of warm and vibrant yellow-pink roses, edged with gold and still glistening with dewdrops, came into view.
Zhou Qiao was stunned: "This is... for me?"
Even though she heard him say it, she still found it a little hard to believe.
"Do you like it?" Qin Feng asked calmly, but only he knew how nervous he was inside.
There were many styles of flowers to choose from, but after looking around, he decided that this bouquet was more suitable for her.
Zhou Qiao was startled: "Why are you suddenly sending me flowers?"
It's no wonder she was nervous; when a man gives a woman flowers on Valentine's Day, the answer is obvious.
Qin Feng paused for a moment, then calmly said, "It's nothing, just gentlemanly conduct."
Hearing him say that, Zhou Qiao felt a little relieved.
She knew it! How could the great demon possibly be interested in her? No, it should be said, how could the great demon possibly have feelings? This flower was definitely just to maintain his gentlemanly image.
As the saying goes, one should not accept a reward without merit. She wanted to refuse, but she was hesitant. After all, she was now living under someone else's roof and had no choice but to bow her head. It was best for her to avoid upsetting him.
After thinking it through, she smiled politely and said, "It looks really good."
This compliment came from the bottom of her heart; after all, it was the first time she had ever received flowers from someone.
Who wouldn't like something beautiful and lovely?
Looking at her expression, Qin Feng thought to himself that he hadn't made a mistake this time, and his expression relaxed a bit: "If you like it, I'll send it to you every day?"
Zhou Qiao was instantly startled. She put one hand behind her back and said timidly, "Uh, no need, it's too much trouble. Anyway, thank you for the gift. Let's hurry up, or we'll miss the movie."
Qin Feng nodded: "Okay."
Zhou Qiao got into the car, and as the car drove along, she gradually realized something was wrong: "Hey? This isn't the way to the movie theater, is it?"
The Central Cinema isn't far from here, about a 20-minute drive, but they've been there for at least half an hour and haven't even seen a glimpse of it.
"I know you don't really like watching movies, and you only agreed because Hou Kai and the others kept pestering you. Instead of suffering in the movie theater, I'd rather take you to do something more interesting," Qin Feng said naturally.
Zhou Qiao: "?"
She was taken aback: "Who...who said I don't like watching movies? Everyone else is going, wouldn't it be bad if we didn't?"
What a joke! She didn't go to see a movie; she used that as a bargaining chip to get those brats to help her find her ID card.
This big devil must have known about their deal and did it on purpose!
Qin Feng, oblivious to Zhou Qiao's unusual behavior, continued to reassure her while driving, "Don't worry, I'm in charge of the Shadow Gate, they won't dare say anything."
Hearing this, Zhou Qiao felt like crying but had no tears left.
The next moment, she realized, "Since we're not going to see a movie, why don't you take me home? I still have so many crafts to do!"
Qin Feng glanced at her and said, "You must have been very busy lately. You need to take a break and relax so you can work better."
Zhou Qiao thought to herself, "Even if I want to relax, I don't want to relax alone with you."
She was about to say something when she heard someone next to her say, "I heard your grandfather say that you like aquariums."
Zhou Qiao swallowed her words instantly.
She pretended not to care and said, "That was all when I was a child."
"You don't like it anymore?"
Zhou Qiao pursed her lips: "The aquarium is just a bunch of fish and jellyfish, there's nothing interesting there. You should take me back."
"Are you sure? I heard that the Kyoto Aquarium recently acquired two blue whales."
"Blue whale?" Zhou Qiao was stunned. "Aren't they all endangered? And one is nearly thirty meters long. Can an aquarium fit it? Who are you trying to fool?"
"Why would I lie to you? The Kyoto Aquarium has specially opened a new branch for them. I've seen the pictures, and they're quite impressive. What, don't you really want to go see them?"
I want it so badly!
Zhou Qiao is actually a marine life enthusiast at heart, but she said she wasn't interested because she didn't want to be with Qin Feng.
However, given the current situation, she wouldn't feel comfortable asking to say she wanted to go.
Fortunately, Qin Feng didn't press her further, but instead acquiesced to her attitude and continued driving towards the aquarium.
...
Central Cinemas.
Hou Kai and his group rushed to the movie theater.
The group entered the hall where they had previously reserved seats for Qin Feng and Zhou Qiao, panting and complaining as they went.
"You guys think the boss's decision was too sudden? He just said he wasn't coming. If he had told us any later, we would have missed the movie, and all the money we spent on the screening would have been wasted," Hou Kai said, taking off his scarf.
"I still don't understand why the boss didn't come when the movie was going so well," Old Qi said, scratching his head.
"The boss posted on WeChat Moments," Ayan suddenly said.
"Oh my god, it really is," Hou Kai pulled out his phone and scrolled down, only to see that Qin Feng had posted his first WeChat Moments update, with no caption, just a picture—
Zhou Qiao leaned against the glass, looking up at the picture of the giant blue whale. Under the light, the angle was gentle, and her eyes seemed to hold a thousand stars.
"Holy crap, when did our boss become such a good photographer?!" Old Qi exclaimed in surprise.
"Tsk tsk tsk, the power of love is truly great! The ancients were right," Hou Kai exclaimed. "Now I know why the boss never comes to the movies—it's so tacky!"
"Alright, it's time to check tickets," Han Xu suddenly said from the side.
Hou Kai put his phone away: "Okay, okay, let's watch a movie. The movie is good, the movie is great, but I'm not eating this dog food!"
