Yuan Shu was naturally happy to have a professional invest for her. She immediately discussed some matters with Liu Lan and handed the money to her.
After lunch, Yuan Shu asked Liu Lan to sit for a while before getting the chauffeur to send her back to the law firm.
The weather had been gloomy for the past two days. It was sunny in the morning, but the temperature suddenly dropped in the afternoon.
Yuan Shu and Shi Lu stood under a gardenia tree in the garden outside the ancestral home. Even the color of the flowers seemed dull in the gloomy weather.
After a moment, a yellow gardenia petal fell and landed on Yuan Shu's shoulder.
Yuan Shu's hair was tied into a bun in the morning, so it was slightly curly now. Her thick black hair and the white gardenia petals gave her a serene aura.
Shi Lu raised his hand to take the petal and twirled it around his fingertip twice. Then, he threw it under the gardenia tree, allowing it to return to its roots.
