Chapter 313


    Not far away, the man’s tall, strong, and upright figure appeared in her sight.


    In her hands was a bunch of red roses.


    Ste was a bit taken aback. She slowly put down the phone, but the smile on her face became deeper


    and deeper.


    Much to her surprise, the wretched man was quite romantic. He even took the flowers to pick her up.


    rence walked to her. “Why didn’t you call me after the gather was over?”


    Ste said, “How did I know you are waiting for me nearby?”


    She originally nned to text him after arriving home.


    rence asked, “Don’t you want to get in the car?”


    Ste shook her head. “I ate a lot earlier. I want to walk home.”


    rence suddenly bent over to approach her, sniffed. “Did you drink?”


    Ste showed him a gesture. “Just a little bit. I’m not drunk yet.”


    Upon hearing it, rence curled up his lips. “I can drink with you after arriving home.”


    Ste looked at his expression. Her intuition told her that the wretched man had an evil intention. She


    looked away and walked forward. “No, thanks. Moderate drinking is good for the health. Drinking too


    much will only reduce my life.”


    rence followed her. “Where did you get those unreasonable sayings?”


    “Your sayings are far more unreasonable.”


    rence said, “I don’t need to work tomorrow. We can date. Where do you want to go?”


    Ste thought for a moment. She turned to look at him. “I have to work tomorrow, though. Sherry has


    gone home for a visit. I must be in my studio.”


    As she finished speaking, rence raised his eyebrows slightly. “Has she gone home?”


    Ste was silent.


    She realized that she had leaked an important message.


    She wanted to skip the topic. Looking at the red roses in rence’s hands, she asked, “Don’t you n


    to give them to me?”


    rence looked down at them. “Do you want them?”


    Ste was confused and speechless.


    Or what? Why would he be holding them if they were not for her?


    rence said, “I identally picked them up on the street. If you want them, I can give them to you.”


    Ste gritted her teeth and red at him fiercely. She turned around and left.


    rence chuckled and followed her, “All right. I was kidding. I bought them for you.”


    “I see.”


    Ste didn’t believe him.


    rence said, “They are a bit heavy. You want to walk home, don’t you? You’ll feel quite tired if walking


    while holding them”


    Ste didn’t agree with him. She didn’t want to show weakness and retorted, “Why would I feel tired?


    Mr. Conrad, could you please don’t underestimate a woman?”


    “Then, let’s continue tonight.”


    “Of course we can continue. I...”


    After she said those words, Ste understood what he implied. Instantly, she felt annoyed. “Continue


    with yourself!”


    She wondered why the wretched man couldn’t think about anything else.


    When she was about to walk away in anger, her hand was gently grabbed. rence asked calmly, “Are


    you angry?”


    Ste believed that the wretched man asked while knowing the answer.


    She wasn’t in the mood to talk to him.


    Right then, a young couple passed them by.


    They seemed to be in a fight as well. The womanined, “Look at you! The man is so handsome


    and he knows to bring his girlfriend flowers. It’s our first anniversary today, but you don’t only forget to


    buy me flowers but also forget what day it is today!”


    Her boyfriend was so panicked. “Well... Buying flowers has nothing to do with being handsome or not.


    I’m sorry, darling. I’ve been too busy recently so I forgot. Tomorrow, all right? I willpensate you


    tomorrow.”


    “Our anniversary is today. Does it make any sense if you do that tomorrow?”


    As she spoke, the woman trotted away while weeping.


    The man stood motionlessly as if he wanted to find a flower store nearby. However, it was way toote


    right now. Stores nearby were already closed, let alone a flower store.


    Ste watched the scene for a moment. Suddenly, she reached her hand to rence. “Give them to


    me.”


    rence raised his brows. “Ehn?”


    “Didn’t you say that they are for me? Please give them to me.”


    rence understood what was in her mind, so he handed the roses to her.


    Ste held them in her arms for a few seconds. Curling up her lips into a faint smile, she walked to the


    man.


    The man was startled when seeing her approach.


    Ste handed the roses to him. “Take them. Please give them to your girlfriend.”


    “Ah... How can I ept them? She’s quite mad now. I don’t think she needs them.”


    Ste smiled. “It’s alright. Girls always want to have a sense of ceremony. Besides, today is an


    important anniversary for you guys. She’s mad now because she cares about you and your love a lot.”


    Upon hearing it, the man didn’t insist on refusing. While he took over the roses, he said, “Thank you,


    Miss. I can wire you the money.”


    “Not necessary. As long as you don’t disdain it because it was from my boyfriend to me.”


    The man immediately answered, “Of course not. Your boyfriend and you love each other so much. I’m


    quite envious. I hope we can also be so sweet as you buys.”


    Ste truly wanted to stop him from wishing they would be the same. Eventually, she smiled and said,


    “Hurry up and go!”


    The man thanked her continuously. After nodding at rence, he chased after his girlfriend while


    holding the roses.


    After he was gone, rence walked to Ste. “You are not mad at me now, are you?”


    Ste ignored him.


    rence pulled her wrist. “Didn’t you just say that I’m your boyfriend? Why are you ignoring me now?”


    Ste was speechless.


    She was whispering to the man just now, but the wretched man still heard it.


    rence suggested, “How about I get you another bouquet?”


    Ste answered steadily, “No, thank you.”


    “Why not?” After a pause, rence asked, “Wasn’t you angry because I didn’t give you the roses


    earlier?”


    Ste felt that her temples were popping. She realized that the wretched man didn’t quite understand


    her at all.

    Seeing that she was silent, rence asked again, “Since you want the flowers so much, why did you


    give them away?”


    After a long while, Ste answered, “I just believe that he needs them more than I do. Besides, I didn’t


    want them so eagerly!”


    “Oh, really?”


    Ste looked at him whiling ming him inwardly. “Forget it, you won’t understand it anyway. You’ll


    never know how sad a woman would be when she hasn’t received any gift on the anniversary.”


    rence pressed his thin lips. Suddenly, he pulled her hand and started to walk back.


    “Wait! Wait! What are you doing?”


    “Buy some gifts.”


    “I was kidding. Haven’t youpensated me, anyway?”


    rence said, “If thepensation worked, why would youin about it again?”


    Ste was silent.


    The wretched man could always hit the nail on the head.


    She was just saying it. Besides, when in a quarrel, women always like to bring up old scores again.


    After such a trifle, it was almost midnight when they finally got home.


    rence wasn’t being polite. He directly took off his coat and went to the bathroom for a shower.


    Ste wanted to hang his suit jacket, but she smelt something on it.


    She approached closer, only to smell that besides the scent of milk, there was a weird smell on the suit


    jacket as well.
