Capítulo 1585: Chapter 1585: Black Hater Wu Di (16)
During the al, neither of them spoke much, quietly finishing their food.
An Ji glanced at Chuzheng from the corner of his eye. The bad mood from earlier, after eting Hu i, seed to improve significantly after seeing her…
However, having her see him in such a disheveled state and keeping her waiting for so long, An Ji felt a bit annoyed inside.
Chuzheng waited until An Ji was almost done, then she put down her knife and fork.
There were still fruits and desserts to co; An Ji seed to like desserts as his expression appeared joyful.
In such a restaurant, the taste of the dessert is definitely the best An Ji has ever had.
Chuzheng waved, and the manager jogged over.
“Please pack a portion for later,” Chuzheng instructed softly.
“Certainly.”
–
“Are you finished?”
An Ji nodded, “Yes, I’m done.”
An Ji wanted to rush to pay the bill, as the al surely wasn’t cheap, especially since they had reserved the whole place, but he could afford it.
However, Chuzheng showed no intention of paying and stood up directly, “Let’s go.”
“…”
The manager nearby was smiling at them and didn’t seem to expect them to pay, so An Ji swallowed his words.
When Chuzheng was leaving, she picked up the bouquet of lilies of the valley from the table and handed it to him, “For you.”
This bouquet was beautifully wrapped, unlike at other restaurants where flowers might just be in a vase, making it suitable to give as a gift.
An Ji was a little stunned, “You’re giving… it to ?”
Chuzheng: “…”
Didn’t I just say I’m giving it?
But it doesn’t matter, however a Good Person Card is understood is up to them.
“Take it.”
“Why… give it to ?” An Ji didn’t take it imdiately, his amber eyes quietly watching her.
Chuzheng, with a cool tone, “Just want to give it, is there a need for a reason? Do you want it or not?”
An Ji took a long mont before accepting it and holding it in his arms.
“Thank you.”
–
As they walked to the entrance, the manager handed over a packed dessert, “Miss Chi, Mr. An, we look forward to your next visit.”
An Ji hadn’t expected Chuzheng to pack a dessert for him as well.
“Thank you,” An Ji’s voice was slightly low, “I originally planned to treat you to a al today, but it turned out like this…”
Chuzheng asked him, “Are you happy now?”
“Hmm?”
An Ji didn’t quite catch it.
Chuzheng repeated, word for word, “Are you happy now?”
An Ji was stunned for several seconds, his refined features relaxing into a smile, “Very happy, thank you.”
Chuzheng: “That’s good.” Not a waste of my money.
When An Ji got ho, he thought about placing the lilies of the valley in a vase and only then noticed a card stuck to the wrapping paper.
——Happiness Arrives.
An Ji took down the card, staring at those words for quite a while without coming to his senses.
He took out his phone and searched for lilies of the valley.
Flower aning: Happiness Returns. Legend has it that receiving lilies of the valley brings the favor of the god of luck.
Maybe those lines stirred sothing in An Ji, causing his heart to beat faster.
An Ji slid down the wall to the floor, looking at the bouquet in his hands, not coming to his senses for a long ti.
After an unknown amount of ti, An Ji opened his phone.
The screen stayed on Chuzheng’s chat box, his fingers sliding over the keyboard, typing and deleting.
What to say?
Ask her why she gave him this kind of flower?
But every table had flowers, all wrapped beautifully; what if she was just randomly seated and didn’t know what the flower ant?
Eventually, An Ji deleted the words in the chat box and typed two words.
[Ji: Good night.]
[San Ye: Mm.]
Looking at the incoming ssage, An Ji couldn’t help but curve his lips into a smile, then he got up, found a vase, and placed the entire bouquet of lilies of the valley inside. The dessert was put in the fridge by An Ji.
An Ji didn’t go to sleep. Instead, he turned on the computer and opened a docunt he hadn’t touched for many days.
He began to type slowly——
How much luck can you encounter in this lifeti?
–
An Ji discussed the publishing matters on his side and thought Xiangyue might send soone to ss things up, but everything went very smoothly.
He already had a completed book in hand, but An Ji wasn’t very satisfied with it, saying he would revise it before giving it to the publisher.
[Ji: During this period, I need to retreat and work at ho for a while.]
An Ji sent Chuzheng a ssage.
[San Ye: Writing a book?]
[Ji: I… don’t think I’ve ntioned it to you before.]
Chuzheng: “!!!”
[San Ye: The boss ntioned it.]
Chuzheng imdiately shifted the bla.
An Ji found it a bit odd; Fei Xiu shouldn’t have proactively ntioned this to anyone.
But Fei Xiu might have said it accidentally after drinking too much at the bar.
[Ji: I see…]
[Ji: Have you read any of my books?]
[San Ye: No.]
At tis like this, one mustn’t admit it; otherwise, if the Good Person Card knew how the original owner had sared him, wouldn’t I have to bear the brunt of it?
There’s no way to take the bla, not in this lifeti.
[Ji: I’ll send you two copies next ti.]
[San Ye: Mm.]
–
An Ji needed to revise his manuscript, shutting himself indoors every day.
Chuzheng, now, couldn’t see him at all.
About two months later, Mr. Chi suddenly sent a ssage from soone’s phone, asking her to make sure to return ho, as Grandma Chi’s birthday was approaching.
Grandma Chi didn’t have a good opinion of Wan Ying, and she didn’t think much of Mr. Chi either.
The only thing that could lighten her mood was her granddaughter.
Mr. Chi, always mindful of his reputation, didn’t want any major issues at the birthday party, so he requested that Chuzheng must co back.
Chuzheng didn’t really want to go, but after thinking it over, she decided to go.
Grandma Chi didn’t live with Mr. Chi; Chuzheng went straight to Grandma Chi’s place.
“Grandma, Xiao Chu is here.” The maid opened the door for Chuzheng, happily welcoming her inside, “Grandma talks about you all the ti, hurry in.”
Chuzheng handed the things she bought to the maid and went inside.
Grandma Chi was no longer able to walk and could only move using a wheelchair.
At this mont, she wheeled herself out, her face beaming with a smile, “Xiao Chu, why are you just now coming to see your grandma?”
“Been busy lately,” Chuzheng went forward and wheeled her grandma into the living room.
“What are you busy with, young lady? Not even taking the ti to visit your grandma; have you picked up bad habits from your dad?”
Grandma Chi pretended to be upset.
“No, I moved out.”
“Why did you move out?” Grandma Chi was shocked upon hearing this and then thought of sothing, “Is it Wan Ying causing trouble?”
Chuzheng replied, “I moved out on my own.”
Although the original owner had a conflict with Wan Ying, which led Mr. Chi to cut off her card, moving out was indeed the original owner’s own decision.
“Your dad is a jerk, a bastard…”
Grandma Chi was cursing vehently.
Back when Mr. Chi had an affair and the original owner’s mother committed suicide, Grandma Chi was so furious she almost didn’t make it, and she’s been in a wheelchair ever since.
“How did I end up raising such a son? I’ve wronged your mother…” Grandma Chi started crying midway, full of guilt.
Chuzheng was a bit flustered.
She hesitantly patted Grandma Chi’s shoulder, “Grandma, it’s alright.”
While Chuzheng was talking to Grandma Chi, Mr. Chi walked in with Wan Ying, “Mom.”
Mr. Chi noticed that Chuzheng was already there, and his expression relaxed, probably thinking Chuzheng still listened to him.
