Shi Che’s phone pinged with a notification, his dark eyes briefly hardened, as if a mory had surfaced. With a stride of his long legs, he swiftly moved to the sofa, grabbed his phone that was placed next to his handbag, and after a quick glance at the screen, there it was—a ssage on WeChat.
He slid his finger across the screen, unlocked the phone, and opened WeChat to find a friend request from soone nad ’Chuxia’.
Seeing the na ’Chuxia’, Shi Che’s hand, clutching the phone, shook uncontrollably. A wave of emotion surged in his eyes. He took several deep breaths to calm the flutter in his chest, then steadily hit ’Accept’, and Chuxia beca his friend.
Ling Chuxia, seeing her request smoothly approved, couldn’t help but tap Shi Che’s profile picture. His details popped up, but unfortunately, she could only see his WeChat na ’Sunshine’, which matched the signature he used when sending flowers. As for other photos or a personal album, there was nothing.
Ling Chuxia stared at it for a while, confirming she truly didn’t recognize this person, and then began to ponder how to start a conversation with him.
After accepting the friend request, Shi Che kept staring at Ling Chuxia’s profile, his emotions roiling as he thought about her being just on the other end of the phone. He wanted to say sothing to Chuxia, but for a mont, he didn’t know what to say. In the end, after much deliberation, he chose a flower emoji from the collection and sent it over.
While Ling Chuxia was still figuring out how to initiate the conversation, Mr. S sent a flower emoji her way first. Looking at the flower, Ling Chuxia was imdiately reminded of the champagne roses he had sent for over a week. She decided not to beat around the bush any longer and to be direct.
Ling Chuxia focused on her phone, her fingers moving slowly, as she carefully composed a ssage.
Chuxia: "Hello sir, I don’t know your na, so I’ll call you Mr. S for now. First of all, I’m very grateful for the flowers you sent, they’re beautiful, thank you. However, the flowers you’ve been sending have sowhat disrupted my work and personal life. If possible, I hope you won’t send them anymore."
After editing, Ling Chuxia reviewed the ssage again to make sure everything was appropriate, moved her finger a bit, and pressed ’Send’.
With a ’ping’, Ling Chuxia received a reply. Shi Che looked down at it, feeling a touch of inevitable disappointnt, but it was fleeting. Holding his phone, he responded.
Sunshine: "If I have disturbed your life and work, I apologize, but I only wanted to express my affection. I can stop sending flowers, yet my feelings for you, I hope you can understand."
Feelings?
At that word, Ling Chuxia’s fingers trembled lightly, her brows slightly furrowing.
He had sent her flowers consistently for many days, each with a card saying ’I have eyes only for you’. It was clear to anyone that he was expressing his affection, but Ling Chuxia still felt a sliver of disbelief—after all, she didn’t know this man. How could soone she didn’t even know suddenly start pursuing her?
But now, Mr. S had made it clear to her, and even if she didn’t want to believe it, the reality in front of her was undeniable.
Ling Chuxia was silent for a mont, still sowhat shocked, but the truth was right in front of her, and she needed to face it.
After so thought, she replied: "Thank you for your affection, but I’m sorry, I cannot accept it."
