Ye Nanshen and Gu Ziye parked the car far away and rushed in hastily.
âWhereâs the ring?â Ye Nanshen asked.
âIt should be in the bouquet that Rong Qi took,â Gu Ziye said.
It was a disaster. Gu Ziye had delivered the wrong bouquet. Ye Nanshen had prepared two identical bouquets, one for a romantic gesture in the evening, and the other for daytime. Unfortunately, Gu Ziye, in his carelessness, had given away the one with the ring hidden in it.
Now, Ye Nanshen felt like wringing Gu Ziyeâs neck.
âI donât know if Rong Qi has found the ring inside, but she definitely saw the card,â Gu Ziye speculated.
Lu Chengzhou was holding another bouquet of Juliet roses with a card, [Qiqi Shines.]
It was a typical, concise âblessingâ from Ye Nanshen. Though it seemed more like something he would do after getting sick. After all, who sends a congratulatory message with just these few words?
If it werenât for the astonishing sea of flowers earlier, these four words combined with roses would have been suffocating.
Gu Ziye muttered, âThe reporters saw it. How did you guys miss it?â
Lu Chengzhou replied, âShen was too focused on looking at Rong Qi. Who would notice the flowers?â
Realizing the situation now was already a relief. After asking Mrs. Hong, they found out that Rong Qi had taken the bouquet upstairs.
Ye Nanshen frowned and said, âYou go, lure Little Qi out first. Iâll go to the room and get the ring.â
âMe? No, no. Everyone knows I donât get along with Rong Qi. Weâre like oil and water,â Gu Ziye quickly shook his head. âLu Chengzhou should go. They have a good relationship.â
âA good relationship?â Ye Nanshen scowled.
Lu Chengzhouâs eyes widened and said, âNo! Last time, Rong Qi even gave me a scorpion! Look, I still have Orangie with me!â
Lu Chengzhou showed the bottle he carried in his pocket, indicating that he too had angered Rong Qi. This mission was impossible.
So, the three of them turned to Shangguan Ze, who was drinking lemon water nearby. Ye Nanshen said, âYou go.â
Upstairs, Rong Qi, who was sleeping, was rudely awakened by loud knocking. Annoyed, she frowned, got out of bed, and secretly grabbed something from the cabinet.
âAre you there, Sukie? Help, itâs urgent!â Shangguan Ze was hammering at Rong Qiâs bedroom door.
The door suddenly opened from inside, almost causing Shangguan Ze to fall in. But before he could steady himself, he saw the wrench in Rong Qiâs hand, screamed, and quickly dodged.
Thankfully, he wasnât hit. If the wrench had struck his head, he would have needed stitches at the hospital.
Shangguan Ze, still shaken, clutched his chest. Rong Qi, standing at the door, looked very displeased. She said, âSpeak. It better be a matter of life and death, or I will skin you alive!â
Shangguan Ze, with his legs tightly crossed, holding his stomach, stammered, âSukie, I need to pee, your house is too big, and I canât find the bathroom.â
âShang, Guan, Ze,â Rong Qi said. Her face turned dark, her beautiful eyes narrowing as if counting down the time of Shangguan Zeâs demise.
Her tone was calm, but it was the calm before a storm.
Shangguan Ze knew he was in deep trouble!
Since he was doomed anyway, he decided to be bold. He suddenly stood up straight, spat at Rong Qi, and then turned to run away. He had wanted to taunt her, but he feared he wouldnât be able to escape if he started talking.
Rong Qi stood at the door, coldly smiling. There was no spit, but she felt Shangguan Zeâs provocation..
