Chapter 170 - Giving Flowers
The sunny rays shone in from behind him, highlighting his silhouette. A faint glow surrounded his well-defined face and it made his facial features appear more defined. All in all, he looked like a god so perfect that no one would be able to say otherwise.
It was clear he had the ability to enchant women. She would definitely have been enchanted and taken in by Mu Sihan, if her father and Bo Shaoxiu had not cheated her before, stripping away all faith she had in men.
If the people closest to her could lie to her, what about this hot-tempered man?
His goal was clear to her. He wanted her body. Because of her rejection, this seemed to trigger his desire to conquer her and that was also why his interest in her never waned.
She did not believe in any man. She would never. And because of that, she would never believe him.
“Young Master Mu, what I want is for you to respect me and not force me.” Nan Zhi had her own principles. She would not let herself be easily moved by anyone.
After her words, Nan Zhi closed her eyes tightly and held her breath. She thought he would lose his temper and shout at her without reason, based on her understanding of him.
However, strangely, he did not move for a very long time.
Opening her eyes slowly, she looked at him.
Unexpectedly, he was not enraged, nor did he have a cold expression.
In fact, he was calmer than she was.
With his deep black eyes, he stared at her straight in the eyes. One side of his lips curled up when he saw her opening one of her eyes sheepishly.
He smiled.
Oh my, it was actually not an evil smile. It was a bright and innocent smile.
Nan Zhi’s heart seemed to be hit by a meteor.
What…?
Why does it feel like he’s even more scary and dangerous than when he loses his temper?
With his looks, he could cause several hundred millions of young girls to become smitten with a smile like that, alright?!
“Y-Young Master Mu, are you okay?” he could not have taken the wrong medicine and lost his mind, right…?
Mu Sihan thought about the brat telling him that he should smile more to Nan Zhi, and his eyes darkened when he took in Nan Zhi’s scared expression.
Did the brat lie to him? She didn’t seem like his smile very much.
Women were troublesome, as expected.
He did not have any experience in wooing women, and did not know how to move her.
Originally, he had thought that giving her a lot of money in the contract would move her. However, the results showed the opposite.
She was different from those other materialistic girls.
Mu Sihan let go of Nan Zhi. He returned to the manor and called Lan Yanzhi, who had a much richer experience in wooing girls.
…
During the weekend, Nan Zhi did not stay at the manor. She brought Yan Hua around Ning City as Yan Hua had returned to the capital on Sunday afternoon.
It was Monday.
Nan Zhi entered the office to the cheers of her colleagues from the moment she walked in.
It was only after she received a hug from everyone that Nan Zhi was able to return to her desk. She noticed a box of Roseonly on the table.
Roseonly. It was only given to one person in a single lifetime.
There was no card, so she did not know who had sent it.
The people in the office were gushing and cheering and Xia Xi seemed highly agitated. “Sister Zhi, it must be from Young Master Mu, right? Wow, Young Master Mu isn’t only handsome, he’s super romantic too!”
Nan Zhi’s phone rang the moment Xia Xi finished speaking.
Her heart skipped a beat when she saw the incoming caller.
Did Mu Sihan really send this box of Roseonly?
Walking to the corner, Nan Zhi answered the phone and the man’s arrogant, yet pleasant voice could be heard from the other end of the line. “Did you receive the flowers?”
Nan Zhi furrowed her eyebrows. “Young Master Mu… Please don’t give me roses.”
“What roses? Which wild man gave you flowers? I sent lilies!” the man raged on the other end of the call. “Which man did you seduce outside again?” Damn it, the brat clearly said that she liked lilies!
At this moment, the voice of a young delivery girl trailed into the office. “I’m sorry, is Miss Nan Zhi here? Your lilies are here. Please sign here to accept them.”
Nan Zhi immediately blanked out.
The man was still shouting from the other end of the call, “Which wild man sent you roses?!”
Nan Zhi was speechless. His words down to the tone was exactly the same as Nan Xiaojie.
