Chapter 234: Thank You, Hubby
Not long after, Liu Yue arrived in the classroom. Today, Liu Yue seemed a bit different.
Firstly, her attire was more meticulous than usual, and she had put on beautiful makeup. Indeed, being in love makes one pay more attention to their appearance. Secondly, her expression was different. Normally, when Liu Yue entered the classroom, she wore a cold expression, as if everyone owed her money. But today, she walked to the podium with a smile as warm as a spring breeze.
Lin Chen, sitting below the podium, couldn’t help but feel strange when he saw this. Thinking about it, he glanced at Wang Haoran, who was seated not far away.
Could what he said be true? No, I don’t believe it! Lin Chen immediately dismissed the thought.
The class passed quickly, and after Liu Yue finished teaching, she turned and walked out of the classroom. At this moment, a man in work attire immediately approached her.
“Hello, are you Ms. Liu Yue?” the man in work attire asked.
Liu Yue was taken aback and instinctively scrutinized the man. The logo “Yichunzhi” on his chest and hat immediately caught her attention. Yichunzhi is one of the few listed flower companies in the country, mainly dealing in fresh flowers. Liu Yue often follows the stock market and is naturally familiar with Yichunzhi. But why would a Yichunzhi employee be looking for her?
Seeing Liu Yue’s puzzled gaze, the man quickly explained, “Ms. Liu Yue, a gentleman ordered flowers at our Yichunzhi branch, and we need you to sign for them.”
“Flowers for me?” Liu Yue was momentarily confused, then her face lit up with joy. Curiously, the man wasn’t holding anything, so she asked, “Where are the flowers?”
“Uh… Ms. Liu Yue, please follow me,” the man gestured politely and led the way.
Liu Yue nodded and followed him. Some students who had overheard the conversation between Liu Yue and the flower shop employee were filled with curiosity and quietly followed them, including Lin Chen.
A few minutes later, Liu Yue arrived at an open space outside the financial building. The area was filled with vibrant roses, creating a sea of flowers. Most women are susceptible to romantic gestures, and Liu Yue was no exception. She was both surprised and delighted, shyly covering her mouth.
The students who had followed to satisfy their curiosity were all stunned by the scene. Among them, Lin Chen’s face turned pale, and his lips trembled.
Fifth Sister… Fifth Sister is really in love.
[Ding, the host’s manipulation has caused the protagonist Lin Chen’s mindset to become unbalanced, earning 700 villain points. Lin Chen’s protagonist halo -35, host’s villain halo +35!]
“Ms. Liu Yue, please sign here,” the flower shop employee respectfully handed a form to Liu Yue.
Liu Yue signed her name and then asked, “May I know the name of the gentleman who sent the flowers?”
The flower shop employee replied, “I’m sorry, we don’t have that information. We just deliver according to the order.”
Unable to get an answer, Liu Yue felt a bit disappointed but quickly returned to her joyful state. At this moment, her phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, Liu Yue quickly answered the call.
“I saw the electronic order notification that it was signed for. Did you receive it? Do you like it?” A voice full of masculine charm came from the phone. Just hearing the voice made Liu Yue’s heart flutter.
This number was one Liu Yue had gotten from Wang Haoran. However, she was too shy to call it. Now, the person suddenly called and said such words. Liu Yue was sure that these roses were from “him.”
[Ding, the female lead Liu Yue’s favorability towards the host’s ‘Peerless Stock God’ identity has increased by 10. Current total favorability is 60 (admiration).]
Liu Yue, elated, replied, “Yes, I like it very much!” After expressing her feelings, she curiously asked, “I still don’t know your real name.”
“My surname is Lao, and my given name is Gong,” the charming male voice replied.
“Lao Gong, Lao Gong, hubby?” Liu Yue repeated, feeling something was off.
“Yes, I’m here,” Wang Haoran, standing on the rooftop of the music building, replied in a disguised voice. At the same time, he communicated with the system and issued a command.
[Ding, the charm halo was successfully used. The female lead Liu Yue’s favorability towards the host’s ‘Peerless Stock God’ identity has increased by 10. Current total favorability is 70 (deep affection).]
On the other side, Liu Yue, realizing she had been tricked into calling him “hubby,” wasn’t angry. Instead, she felt a secret joy, as if her heart was filled with sweetness.
“Let’s meet,” Liu Yue suggested from the heart.
With a favorability of 70 being stable, Wang Haoran, hearing this proposal, directly deflected, “I’m abroad, and I have a lot of work at the moment, so I can’t return for now. Let’s wait a while.”
“How long will that be?” Liu Yue asked wistfully.
Wang Haoran thought for a moment and replied, “At most two months.” Within two months, he planned to increase the favorability to 90, at which point revealing his identity wouldn’t be an issue. It would be a sure thing. Of course, two months was the maximum limit. If everything went smoothly, it could be a month, half a month, or even a week.
“I have something to attend to here, so I can’t chat for long. I’ll call you when I’m free,” Wang Haoran said, preparing to end the call to avoid further requests from Liu Yue.
Hearing this, Liu Yue naturally didn’t dare to prolong the conversation and considerately said, “Okay, then you go ahead. Don’t let it interfere with your work.”
The call ended.
Liu Yue exhaled softly and turned her attention back to her surroundings. She noticed the bustling crowd of students and teachers watching. Her face flushed, but instead of leaving, she took out her phone and started taking selfies with the sea of roses as the background.
When she signed earlier, she had seen that the order was for 99,999 roses. These roses were of excellent quality, and at a price of about 10 per stem, it amounted to nearly a million. The scene created by a million was indeed romantic, though quite expensive. But because of this, Liu Yue felt valued.
It showed that he cared about this relationship!
However, these roses couldn’t be stored and would eventually be cleaned up by the campus staff. But before that, Liu Yue wanted to capture this beautiful moment.
After taking the photos, Liu Yue posted them on Weibo and tagged “Peerless Stock God,” with the caption: Thank you, hubby!
When their relationship was just ordinary, Liu Yue had already called him hubby once. Now that they were officially dating, it felt justified for Liu Yue to call him that on Weibo.
After the last class in the afternoon, Liu Yue asked her brother Lin Chen to call Wang Haoran to her office.
“My sister wants to see you,” Lin Chen reluctantly informed Wang Haoran.
Wang Haoran patted Lin Chen’s shoulder and smiled, “Little friend, isn’t it just as I said? You have a new brother-in-law.”
Lin Chen removed Wang Haoran’s hand from his shoulder and retorted angrily, “What’s there to be proud of? You’re not my brother-in-law!”
Wang Haoran smiled without saying a word and then walked past Lin Chen towards Liu Yue’s office.
Upon meeting, Liu Yue immediately said, “You should be free tomorrow since it’s a holiday. Let me treat you to a meal.”
