Lin Nuan's words were polite, but Liu Mingchen understood what she meant. He was rejected by Lin Nuan in a professional manner.
Her meaning was clear. She treated the flowers as a normal gift, so she gave him a gift in return.
Lin Nuan seemed to be very familiar with politely rejecting people. Liu Mingchen's lips curled up into a bitter smile as he reached out to grab the linen string of the bag.
Liu Mingchen had received a good gentleman's education in England. He knew that after being rejected by a woman, he should respect her. Clinging to her and lowering himself was a blasphemy to the woman he liked!
Even though he had liked Lin Nuan for many years, he had to respect her after being rejected.
"Then … how about we be friends?" Liu Mingchen held the rope in his hand, his voice deep.
"Of course!" Lin Nuan smiled and nodded.
This limited edition Parker Pen was sent by a friend overseas after she received Lin Chen's birthday gift. She was going to give it to Lin Chen for his birthday.
Coincidentally, Lin Nuan received it before Liu Mingchen arrived, so she put it to use.
Liu Mingchen opened the box in front of Lin Nuan. "Your pen is much more valuable than the roses I gave you. This is a limited edition pen. You wouldn't be able to find a gift like this in such a short time, and you wouldn't have the foresight to prepare a gift for me …"
Liu Mingchen looked up. "You gave this to someone else, right?"
Lin Nuan didn't feel awkward after being exposed. She nodded.
Liu Mingchen closed the box and tried to smile as brightly as possible. "Then I'll be a despicable person and steal someone else's gift."
"He doesn't know, so it's not stealing!" Lin Nuan smiled.
A light breeze brushed past Lin Nuan's bangs. She didn't have any makeup on, and her delicate eyes were smiling. Under her tall nose, the corners of her lips curled up slightly. It was enough to make one's heart flutter.
The scene was as beautiful as an oil painting. Liu Mingchen's Adam's apple moved up and down. "Thank you for your gift. I'll be leaving now!"
"Be careful on the road."
Lin Nuan put her hands in the pockets of her sweater and watched Liu Mingchen's car leave. Just as she turned to go upstairs, Fu Huai 'an's car entered her sight without warning.
She stopped in her tracks.
The tall and slender man leaned against the car door. His dark suit was unbuttoned, revealing a white shirt with a stiff collar. He had one hand in his pocket and the other holding a cigarette to his lips, his deep gaze fixated on Lin Nuan.
It was different from Liu Mingchen's clean and comfortable aura.
Fu Huai 'an's maturity and steadiness were engraved in his bones after years of accumulation and tempering, giving him a strong aura that couldn't be ignored.
His heartbeat suddenly sped up, making it hard for him to breathe.
Lin Nuan had no idea how long Fu Huai 'an had been there.
She recalled that she hadn't replied to Fu Huai 'an's message today and didn't know if she should walk towards him.
Lin Nuan instinctively feared Fu Huai 'an.
Just as Lin Nuan was hesitating, Fu Huai 'an had already straightened up and was walking towards her.
She tucked her stray hair behind her ears nervously and walked down the stairs, taking a few symbolic steps towards Fu Huai 'an.
She thought Fu Huai 'an would ask about Liu Mingchen, but when Fu Huai' an opened his mouth, he asked in his deep and magnetic voice, "Why didn't you reply to my message?"
