Chapter 301 Appreciating Flowers
"Why are you just arriving?" From a distance, she saw Lin San and Huan'er approaching, playfully bantering. The Eldest Miss hastened to meet them, grumbling, "Everyone else is working their heads off, yet you seem to have all the leisure time in the world."
"As a wounded person, a bit of coddling is appropriate." Lin Wanrong chuckled, his eyes roving appreciatively over Xiao Yuruo. "Miss, you look quite beautiful today," he sincerely complimented.
Xiao Yuruo felt a surge of joy at his words, a flush rising on her face. "No need for such flattery. You're late. Sister Xu invited me to appreciate the flowers earlier, but seeing you weren't here, I had to decline."
The Eldest Miss was normally a workaholic, always consumed with business and having no time for such diversions. But things were different now. She was in love and being a young, beautiful woman, she naturally yearned for these lovely moments under the flowers and moon. Having had a hugely successful promotion that day, what was the harm in rewarding herself by enjoying the scenery?
She held this thought but was too embarrassed to voice it first. Seeing Lin San's cheerful yet unserious demeanor, she couldn't help but snort softly in annoyance. Couldn't he see the opportunity, even at such a moment, where was his usual tact?
However, Lin Wanrong was astute. Seeing the Eldest Miss's shy demeanor, her gaze occasionally drifting towards the Grand Prime Minister Temple, he could hardly be in the dark. A thought amused him privately. Spring had indeed arrived; even the Eldest Miss was falling into its charm.
He laughed out loud, calling out, "Sister Song, could you please handle the distribution of gifts? I'll accompany the Eldest Miss for a walk in the temple. Don't get me wrong, we'll be scouting for potential big clients. Oh, what a pity! Even during this flower-viewing event, I'm still thinking about work. I'm truly the model of loyalty and morality."
"Go ahead," Sister Song replied with a laugh. "I'll keep an eye on things here. You and the Eldest Miss go and have some fun. She has indeed been very busy these days."
