Chapter 304: Sending You a Rose

ad to glare at her.Qiao Bao'er looked at this noble and elegant mother-in-law, she could only bow her head and choose silence.She thought Jiang Meili was harder to get along with than Jun Qingya, and...6:00 AM.

After Qiao Bao'er woke up, she stood in front of the bathroom mirror, staring blankly for a long time.

She gathered her long hair into a bun, tilted her body, and stretched her neck to look clearly in the mirror at some 'marks' on her skin.

Fingers gently brushed over, neither painful nor itchy.

Like a kiss mark.

Her brow furrowed tighter, a sudden surge of apprehension jolting her. She whirled around and ran out into the small living room, scrutinizing every corner of the cramped apartment.

Last night, she locked all the doors and windows. This space was hers alone.

She didn't feel physically unwell, just a little heavy in the head. She turned her gaze to a bottle of antidepressants on the coffee table.

But any type of these psychiatric drugs will have side effects. For example, taking too much can cause hallucinations, brief memory lapses, brain fog, and even affect heart rhythm.

Qiao Baoer wasn't sure how she got the 'marks' on her earlobes. Perhaps it was from the medication, or maybe she had pressed against something before going to sleep and didn't remember.

With the doors and windows tightly shut all night, and the heating having been on all winter, especially in this small apartment, it felt stuffy and the air was stagnant.

Standing in the center of the living room, her gaze was a little hazy as she looked around this incredibly quiet space once more.

Even breathing felt labored, and there was a suffocating feeling in my chest, making me very agitated.

This kind of enclosed space can easily lead to overthinking, and one feels a strong desire to escape this situation.

She flung the door open and rushed out.

The difference in temperature between indoors and outdoors gave her a shiver. The winter chill also cleared her head instantly, and her heart calmed down.

But soon, Qiao Bao'er discovered that her foot stepped on something.

I stared dumbfounded for two minutes.

A bright red rose.

She ran out barefoot. She has always had very fair skin, and her white feet stood out against the bright red flowers.

She picked it up, her heart a mix of emotions.

The thorns on the rose have been carefully removed, “Who put this here”

Who would put a rose on her apartment door.

The first thing that flashed in her mind was a scene from yesterday evening at the City East Shopping Plaza, where a little girl had approached her selling flowers.

This is the kind of rose.

Jo Baoer looked sullen, tightly clutching the rose. Until a petal wilted and fell gently, she took a deep breath, turned around, and went into the room to change her clothes before stepping out again.

At 9:00 am, Qiao Baoer received a phone call from Zhu Xiao Wei.

Xiao Zhu asked her on the phone if she wanted to bring back some local specialties, “I’m in the city now. It's Christmas today, why are you at the hospital Are you sick” She heard the sound of someone picking up medicine from the hospital broadcasting.

"I walked around the square for a while last night, and then I got a bit of a cold and fever."

"Are you running a high fever"

"A common cold is nothing to worry about." Qiao Ba'er's tone was very calm, and there was no hint of anything else.

"I'm in line paying, it's almost my turn, I'll chat with you later when I have some free time."

Then the call ended.

Zhu Xiaowei thought for a moment, her tone wasn't unusual, but would someone with her personality go to the hospital for a common cold

What happened

Suddenly, a figure approached from behind. Zhu Xiaowei was startled and looked up at the man in front of her, stunned for half a second. "You... how did you get into my room"

Pei Haoran looked at her frightened expression and shrugged nonchalantly, "Or do you think I slept on the street last night"

"You slept here last night!"

Xiao Zhu was even more frightened, raising her voice and making it sound slightly shrill, "Pei Haoran, you pervert! Why did you come to my room uninvited..."

... something felt off to her, and she silently closed her mouth.

"What are you so nervous about," the perpetrator said, without a shred of remorse. He glanced at her increasingly flushed face with a teasing smile, then Pei Haoran's smile became even more debauched and charming, "Miss Zhu, are you afraid I'll do something to you"

Zhu Xiaowei was completely petrified.

This, this shameless person, actually said such things!

“You...what did you do last night!” Zhu Xiaowei stammered, her anger evident.

Pei Haoran explained to her kindly, "I went downstairs last night to try and get another room, but the hotel staff told me that all the rooms were booked for Christmas."

"There are no rooms left, why didn't you tell me beforehand!"

"Pei Haoran saw that she seemed very upset, and sighed, 'I'm doing this for your own good.'"

< Only a devil would believe that this dead man is so kind!! >

Pei Haoran raised an eyebrow and retorted, "If I had told you last night that I wanted to share a suite with you, could you have slept"

Zhu Xiaoyue's face froze.

She was very unwilling, why couldn't she refute it every time.

If it's late at night and they are in a suite together, then of course she can't sleep!

"In such a large suite, you hogged the double bed all by yourself. I didn't even try to squeeze in with you last night; I just slept on the sofa."

Pei Haoran spoke very seriously, and there was a bit of resignation in his voice.

At the end of the conversation, don't forget to add, "Ms. Zhu, rest assured, I won't go up on you."

Zhu Xiaowei glared at his handsome and refined face. Really, how could this person be so venomous with his words!

Go to hell!

Early in the morning, Zhu Xiaowei, who had always been well-mannered, felt like swearing.

Spending even one more second with this person will raise your blood pressure.

From the day she met him, this Second Master Pei has always been like this, a real spineless scoundrel!

Few people know the true, mischievous nature of Pei Haoran. Seeing Zhu Xiaowei, such a soft and meek creature, speechless with anger, he felt an immense sense of satisfaction.

He stretched out his big hand very naturally and pinched her face, "Miss Zhu, don't put on that sour face. We're going to meet clients in a while, come on, smile." Sure enough, even her cheeks were soft.

Zhu Xiaowei's face turned even uglier. This person was even more childish than his son.

Yesterday afternoon, she left the residential complex and was about to go to the Eastern City Plaza to shop with Qiao Baier. She unexpectedly ran into him in the parking garage. Pei Haoran was standing beside her car.

At that time, she was very surprised and embarrassed because she had been fired by him a few days ago. She ran away crying.

He said Pei Yi was sick and throwing a tantrum demanding to see her.

Perhaps Pei Haoran's expression was too serious at the time, so she really foolishly followed him.

I didn't realize I had been tricked until I got to the city.

Pei Haoran said to her sarcastically, "Last time, I handled things improperly. Xiaoyi really liked the Christmas present you gave her."

Zhu Xiaowei didn't expect this person to say an apology. Thinking about it seriously, everyone is an adult, and some things can't even tell who is right or wrong.

"Why did you lie to me and bring me to the city"

This person was very matter-of-fact, "I didn't take a holiday for Christmas, I have to come here to meet a client."

Zhu Xiaowei gritted her teeth, wanting to retort, "What does this have to do with me"

Then, whenever she felt she was in the right and wanted to argue with him, Pei Haoran would calmly tell her, “Ms. Zhu, based on what I know about you, you wouldn’t spend money on yourself even if you had it. So for my rudeness last time, I’ll treat you to a full-day city tour, the most expensive cuisine, and a presidential suite.”

To put it another way, she probably won't ever have the chance to enjoy herself given her current circumstances.
