Ting Zihao's look of deep affection made many of the won present go starry-eyed. He was warm and generous, handso, and a lavish spender—just like an overbearing CEO who had stepped right out of a romance novel!
"Handso, if she turns you down, I'll be your girlfriend!" a rather attractive woman shouted.
Ting Zihao remained unmoved, his gaze still fixed affectionately on Ning Siqi.
"This handso guy is so devoted! I love it!"
His indifference only made these won look at him with even more adoration. Now that's a real man, faithful to his love, they thought.
Ning Siqi frowned. "I don't like you. I'm only here because my mother arranged this eting, Mr. Ting. Please stop."
"If you don't like this necklace, I'll take it back. But don't worry, I've prepared other things for you." Ting Zihao wasn't annoyed at all, maintaining his perfectly polite deanor.
With that, he clapped his hands. Just as everyone was wondering what he was up to, a soothing love song began to play through the restaurant. A waiter in a white uniform walked over, holding a large bouquet of flowers. The bouquet was filled with blue roses. At a glance, there were at least several dozen!
The entire restaurant was instantly buzzing.
"My God! Those are Blue Enchantresses!"
"Wow, that's so romantic!"
"No way, is that a bouquet of 999 Blue Enchantresses? That must cost several points!"
Hearing the gasps of surprise around him, Ting Zihao's smile deepened. Indeed, there were 999 Blue Enchantresses. Each one cost nearly 50 mililiters, bringing the total price for the bouquet close to 5 points!
"First a Cartier necklace, and now 999 Blue Enchantresses... Oh my god, being his girlfriend would be absolute bliss, wouldn't it?"
"I don't know about blissful, but he's definitely loaded!"
"What a grand gesture!"
The other diners in the restaurant began to gather around, the way they looked at Ting Zihao completely changed. A single bouquet of flowers cost about as much as their monthly salary. Now that was a truly rich man!
Blue Enchantresses symbolize love, and a bouquet of 999 of them implies an eternal commitnt. With this single gesture, Ting Zihao made countless won in the crowd flush with excitent.
This is what a true tycoon looks like! they thought. Casually gifting items that cost a fortune—being his girlfriend would make everyone die of envy, wouldn't it?
He was the ideal partner they all dread of: young, handso, rich, and romantic. He was a legendary Prince Charming brought to life!
"Handso, let be your girlfriend!" The sa woman from before stepped forward, her eyes burning as she gazed at Ting Zihao.
Behind her, a young man's face turned green with anger. He tugged at her arm and shouted, "What are you doing?"
"What am I doing? I'm breaking up with you!" she retorted. "Look at yourself! You're broke, you have no class, you're not considerate, and you have no idea what romance is! I must have been blind to ever get with you!"
"You... you... you..." The young man trembled with rage, completely speechless.
"I'm sorry, Miss, but my heart belongs only to Siqi," Ting Zihao said, declining with a smile.
The woman's expression imdiately fell, and she turned and walked away without a backward glance. Her boyfriend scrambled after her, the very picture of a Bootlicker. "Siya, my feelings for you are real! Please, give another chance!"
Turning back to Ning Siqi, Ting Zihao gazed at her with deep affection. Bathed in the soft light, holding the massive bouquet of Blue Enchantress roses, dressed in a black suit with a gentle smile on his face—he was like a Prince Charming who had stepped right out of a novel, making countless won swoon.
"Say yes! Say yes!" Soone started the chant, and soon the entire room was echoing it.
Ting Zihao felt a surge of pleasure.
"Wait a minute."
Just as everyone was quietly waiting for Ning Siqi's answer, a voice suddenly cut in from the restaurant entrance.
"Holy shit, who the hell is that?"
"Which dumbass thinks they can act up in my Qingyun City?"
Everyone spun around, their faces masks of anger. A tall young man in a delivery uniform was walking in through the entrance. It was Xia Liang.
The crowd watched as the young man walked right up to Ning Siqi, gave her a small smile, and offered her the milk tea he was holding.
"Hey beautiful, this milk tea is for you. Will you be my girlfriend?"
PFFT!
Ting Zihao was the first to break, bursting out laughing. Where did this idiot co from? This is hilarious!
The rest of the crowd roared with laughter as well. This guy was ridiculous! Trying to win over such a beautiful woman with a single milk tea that cost fourteen mililiters? Was he brain-damaged? Did he not see the Blue Enchantresses Mr. Ting was holding?
"Dude, your technique for picking up girls is a little..." Ting Zihao struggled to hold back his laughter as he patted Xia Liang on the shoulder. "You should probably go ho, change your clothes, and clean yourself up a bit before trying again."
Only then did the crowd get a good look at the newcor, and many of them imdiately shook their heads. There was simply no comparison. One was a dapper, romantic young master in a suit who spent lavishly and drove a Porsche. The other, though quite handso, was just so loser in a delivery uniform holding a cup of milk tea. As long as the beautiful woman had normal taste and values, there was no way she would choose the latter, right? Unless, of course, they were truly in love.
"Buying flowers is too much trouble," Xia Liang said, raising an eyebrow.
"Bro, you could at least put so effort into your confession," Ting Zihao said, looking at him with a strange expression while forcing a smile. This guy is one of a kind!
"I think this is plenty thoughtful." Xia Liang was unfazed. If his old classmate hadn't asked him for this favor, he never would have bothered. Right, I'll have to get her to pay back for the milk tea later, he thought, before saying aloud, "I think this beautiful lady will like it."
HAHAHA!
Ting Zihao nearly collapsed with laughter. This guy is the perfect wingman! He's just here to make look better. This is in the bag!
"So, beautiful? Do you like it?" Ignoring Ting Zihao's laughter, Xia Liang held the milk tea out to Ning Siqi and asked with a grin.
Just as the crowd was about to erupt in mockery, sothing stunning happened. A brilliant smile suddenly blossod on Ning Siqi's usually expressionless face, as radiant as a field of flowers opening at once.
Ting Zihao's heart skipped a beat. For so reason, a feeling of unease washed over him.
As everyone watched, dumbfounded, Ning Siqi made her move.
"I love it. I love anything you give ." She walked up to Xia Liang, her smile sweet and genuine. She looked like a completely different person.
SNAP! SNAP!
It was the sound of a heart shattering to pieces.
Ting Zihao was completely stunned. It felt as if his head had been smashed by a heavy hamr, and his ears were ringing. How is this possible? How can this be happening?! Ning Siqi actually chose the man in the delivery uniform?
