Lu Yui's heart raced like crazy, and her face flushed red.
The beautiful flowers, fragrant to the core.
The man she saw was handso and spirited.
This scene was utterly captivating.
For a mont, she felt dazed and sowhat flustered.
Her heart thumped wildly, like a deer crashing around, and her delicate, white-jade face turned increasingly hot.
What was this deadbeat doing?
Didn't he know his place?
Oh God, if word got out, wouldn't people laugh?
Liu Zhizhong gazed at his mother-in-law, unable to suppress the stirring in his heart.
She had just taken a bath, her scent fresh and pleasing.
Beneath the loose, light apricot sleeping gown, it seed like she wore nothing, her figure outstandingly prominent.
Not to ntion her tender face, rosy and white, her bright eyes shimring intensely.
Her lips pursed then parted slightly, her breathing sowhat rapid, charmingly shy yet with an inherent hint of spring's romantic allure.
Yet he still smiled and said, "Hey, Mrs. Lu, what's the matter? Don't these flowers sll good?"
It was then that Lu Yui snapped out of her reverie, quickly adjusting her breathing and deeply inhaling the floral scent, clamping down on her emotions.
Her expression hardened. "What are you doing? Coming back late at night to give such a bouquet of roses, is that appropriate? Really..."
Seeing her reaction, speaking while still eyeing the bouquet, both pleased and rejecting.
Liu Zhizhong rely smiled and said, "What's the harm? White roses don't symbolize love, they represent purity and elegance! Isn't it alright to give such a bouquet to my mother-in-law? Of course, if you really think it's inappropriate, I'll throw it away..."
After saying that, he made as if to turn away.
"Hey! Throw what away! That would be such a waste!"
Lu Yui's voice rose considerably as she quickly snatched the flowers, holding them tightly as if to prevent him from disposing of them.
Liu Zhizhong chuckled, "That's more like it! I just passed by a flower shop and thought of it. Thank you for taking care of and for your encouragent. Does it sll good?"
Lu Yui couldn't help but lower her head again to look at the bouquet and took another sniff, "Mmm, yes, really nice… haha…"
She laughed, her deanor sweetly charming, such a girlish reaction to the flowers giving her an enchanting grace, it left Liu Zhizhong sowhat dazed.
However, Liu Zhizhong remained composed and said gently, "Mrs. Lu, that's all for now, goodnight, then! I had dinner and drinks tonight with Minister Zhang from the City Committee, feeling a bit sleepy, I'll head to bed first."
"Ah? You're going to sleep?" Lu Yui looked up, and, oh, Liu Zhizhong had already turned around.
Hearing her, he turned back and said, "Yes, planning to sleep. Mrs. Lu, is there anything else?"
"I…" Lu Yui held the flowers, paused, and then said, "Your own problem, this ti it's big, do you realize?"
"Don't worry so much, it's no big deal, everything will be okay. I've been driving all afternoon, quite tired, I'll rest now."
"Ah… you're not even worried… Fine, go sleep then!"
Lu Yui felt a bit anxious, clinging to the fresh flowers and even stamped her foot, her heart swelling with tumultuous emotions.
Liu Zhizhong nodded, waved his hand, "Goodnight, Mrs. Lu."
Then, he turned suavely and left.
Lu Yui held the flowers, silently watching his tall silhouette fading away, appreciating his collected deanor, grasping his calm aura so perfectly.
Her heart fluttered inexplicably, but she scolded herself.
God, isn't it embarrassing, you old woman!
Still, she felt genuinely happy and admired Liu Zhizhong.
These years, those matters, recent events had made him more stable, mature, and even more ticulous… Looking at the flowers in her arms, she couldn't help but sll them again, really nice…
Subconsciously, she thought disparagingly of Zhang Hongyang, that trash.
No matter how famous he got or how popular he beca, he wasn't even worthy to carry Liu Zhizhong's shoes.
The books and TV shows by Zhang Hongyang, they were Liu Zhizhong's, she knew.
Zhang Hongyang's achievents, those were state money spent on dressing up his image, she also knew.
Speaking of capability, alas, her second son-in-law was indeed superior!
She was aware of Liu Zhizhong's current career and situation, the disapproval from the Zhang Family was intense, and Yangzhou barely contained him anymore, alas…
What Liu Zhizhong's next steps would be, Lu Yui felt anxious.
But holding the flowers and returning to her room, she thought it over and decided, tomorrow she would discuss with him about taking a trip to relax, alas…
