Chapter 407: 407: The Language of Red Roses
“…”
Qin Youxuan glanced at the address, grabbed a handful of her long hair, and started chewing on it.
What’s with all the secrecy? We’re adults playing hide and seek.
Following him like this will only make her look desperate, but not going…
Would Dan Hanjie strangle her?
Qin Youxuan knitted her eyebrows, deep in thought. After a while, she finally let go of her hair, smiled at the butler, and asked, “Do we have any bicycles on the island?”
“…Yes, we have a few in the storeroom.”
The butler was taken aback, evidently not on the same wavelength as Qin Youxuan.
“Quick, fetch me one!”
Qin Youxuan clapped her hands excitedly.
Once the butler had some servants carry out a bicycle, Qin Youxuan ran up to it and hopped on, smilingly.
She turned to the still bewildered butler.
“My phone’s dead, so I won’t bring it. If Dan Hanjie calls, just tell him I’m already on my way, rushing there as fast as I can. Tell him to wait patiently!”
With that, Qin Youxuan pedaled and zoomed out of the gate.
She rode against the wind, following a coastal road, heading to the Coastal Area.
“Driver, enjoy your day off!”
As she passed by the waiting luxury car, Qin Youxuan shouted towards the driver’s seat.
“Mi… Miss Qin…”
The driver, who had been waiting in the car, watched as she left on a bicycle, his eyes wide open in shock.
He quickly flung open the door and ran out.
Qin Youxuan left him with nothing but a captivating view of her back. She waved her arms and pedaled faster.
It took the driver a few seconds before he regained his senses and whipped out his phone. “As… Assistant Yao, Miss Qin has run off!”
…
“Woohoo——”
Qin Youxuan rode her bicycle with her arms spread wide, embracing the sea breeze freely.
On the path nearing the sea, continuous sea waves clashed against the shore, raising a white mist. Even the sea breeze carried a hint of saltiness.
As Qin Youxuan pedaled the bicycle hard, it was as if she went back to her youthful school days.
On the distant shore, a tall figure stood, his handsome face sculpted and perfect, glowing in the sunlight.
He stood still, staring at her straight on, his vivid eyes impossible to ignore.
Qin Youxuan slipped, nearly falling into the sea, bike and all.
She managed to regain her composure and continued to ride towards him.
A helicopter suddenly appeared overhead, flying past her.
Flower petals showered down from the sky, swirling around her petite figure. It was as if she was a fairy surrounded by blooming flowers, adorable, lively, enchanting…
Qin Youxuan was taken aback, then looked up to see the petals continuously falling from the helicopter. She reached out and caught a few petals.
She held them up to her nose and sniffed, “Red roses…”
Wild roses are symbol of romance, while red wild roses signify a romantic proposition…
When he presented her with red roses, was he hinting at something?
“Do you like them?”
Before she realized it, Dan Hanjie had already arrived by her side. He held her hand and helped her off the bike.
The bicycle fell to the side with a clatter. Qin Youxuan looked back at it instinctively.
