Free Web NovelChapter 1261: Chapter 1261: The Meaning of Red Roses
"Lady Xia, could you please sign for this first?" the big boy said, trembling.
Among those present, it seemed only he was clear-headed.
Xia Yinian returned to her senses, glanced at him, and nodded lightly.
She took the card that was held between his fingertips and signed her name on it.
"Thank you, Lady Xia." The flower delivery boy respectfully handed the flowers to Xia Yinian.
As soon as Xia Yinian received the flowers, her gaze fell on the woolly bear.
Such a large bouquet that both hands are needed to hold, but what to do about this big bear?
While Xia Yinian hesitated, the boy holding the woolly bear glanced again toward Seventh Young Master, seeming a bit worried about being penalized.
"Give it to me," Xia Yinian said, awkwardly holding the flowers with one hand, extending the other.
The boy carefully placed the woolly bear in Xia Yinian’s hand.
"Thank you, Lady Xia!" the boy breathed a sigh of relief.
He gave Xia Yinian a glance, nodded, and turned to leave.
A few steps later, he stopped in front of Gu Beicheng.
"Seventh Young Master, the gift you ordered has been delivered. You’re welcome to come again next time."
With a respectful nod, the flower delivery man turned and hurried away.
Bribing a flower delivery person is easy, but bribing Seventh Young Master—perhaps no one in Ye City could do such a thing?
This gift was definitely from Seventh Young Master to Xia Yinian, without a doubt.
There was no lack of envious and jealous glances from the crowd; now, those looks also held a bit of fear.
Did Xia Yinian reject Young Master Ling solely because of Seventh Young Master?
Maybe, after today, ordinary students wouldn’t dare to offend Xia Yinian?
No matter who she was, her associates were truly influential, the top people in Ye City.
"Miss Niannian, Seventh Young Master wants to invite you to dinner. Do you think you’ll have time?" Chi He took two steps forward, approaching Xia Yinian.
When Seventh Young Master invites someone to dinner, does he really need to ask if they have time? This isn’t a joke, right?
"Chi He, are you... alright?" Xia Yinian asked softly, ignoring others around.
Since returning from Bing City, this was the first time Xia Yinian had seen Chi He.
"I’ve been alright for a while now, thank you Miss Niannian for your concern," Chi He replied with a smile.
"Good to hear," Xia Yinian said, pressing her lips together, a smile on her face.
The two appeared like very familiar friends, making it hard for others to understand.
"Miss Niannian, Seventh Young Master..." Chi He shifted his gaze to the approaching man.
"Beicheng," Xia Yinian called softly to the man before her.
Beicheng? Xia Yinian actually called Seventh Young Master Beicheng? Waves of surprise washed over, mouths almost turning circular among the others.
When did Seventh Young Master and Xia Yinian’s relationship become so close? Did Xia Yinian leave Young Master Ling to be with Seventh Young Master?
In the past, stories of Seventh Young Master favoring Xia Yinian were already circulating.
But Seventh Young Master’s fiancée, Lady Qing, said he adored his juniors, extending that affection to Xia Yinian.
Back then, just like Young Master Ling, Xia Yinian called Seventh Young Master "Uncle."
Unexpectedly, after her engagement with Young Master Ling was cancelled, she directly called Seventh Young Master’s name.
Is there really such a relationship between them? What about Lady Qing from the Yu family? Would Seventh Young Master also cancel his engagement with Lady Qing for Xia Yinian?
Compared to Lady Qing, Xia Yinian is nothing, but everyone present should know what red roses symbolize.
