Greedy Flower Store Owner

Guan Xin thought that Kang Zhaoming would give up after waiting for hours. She didn’t think that he would wait there until she left for work. The moment she stepped outside of the door, she jumped up in fright from the sudden fireworks as well as from Kang Zhaoming’s voice.

Guan Xin couldn’t recover from her shock fast enough. Kang Zhaoming started singing. “Guan Xin is the most beautiful girl in the hospital. She is the best, she’s pretty, kind, and she has large bright eyes and healthy long braids…”

Kang Zhaoming was singing with his guitar that gave off the aura of a romantic prince. The exception was that his singing voice was out of tune; it sounded like a toad croaking. That shocked Guan Xin the most and every bystander frowned in disappointment!

“Xiaomei, let’s leave quickly. Don’t pay attention to him!” Guan Xin had never experienced such an embarrassing situation before. She was shocked by Kang Zhaoming.

Kang Zhaoming saw that Guan Xin was rushing away. He sped up his timeline of events. He stopped singing and went straight into the confession phase. “Xinxin, you are the goddess in my heart. You are my source of light. You are the only one that I have eyes for. I love you…”

“Hey, where are you from? Within the confines of the hospital, fireworks or explosives are not allowed! You are causing noise pollution and bothering other patients! Follow me back to the security room to accept the punishment!” Kang Zhaoming was in mid-shout. The police on duty had received multiple noise complaints, so they rushed over to surround Kang Zhaoming.

“Um?” Kang Zhaoming didn’t think that he would get surrounded by the police. “I’m just courting a girl. Is that illegal?”

“Courting is not illegal, but the methods you used have violated multiple rules set by the hospital. Quickly return with us!” The two police officers were on both sides escorting Kang Zhaoming away.

The bystanders were watching the drama play out as they have been waiting for a while. In the end, Kang Zhaoming wasn’t able to finish his confession and the police escorted him away. The group disbanded shortly after.

Guan Xin was able to sigh out in relief. This Kang Zhaoming was like a mosquito that didn’t go away; he was truly bothersome. Out of nowhere, he made such a huge scene. She didn’t really know how to dissolve it. Guan Xin had pursuers before, but not to this scale.

“Sigh…” Guan Xin sighed again. She decided that the next time she saw Kang Zhaoming, she would give him a good talk. There was nothing in between the both of them, so he should just give it up!

“That person is so unlucky. He didn’t even get to confess. Then, he ended up getting locked up by the police!” Lee Xiaomei was giggling. It was hilarious.

“It is good that he was taken away because I don’t know how to handle it!” Guan Xin shook her head. She and Lee Xiaomei were rushing over to the commuter’s parking lot…

Kang Zhaoming was sitting in the security room within the hospital. He was signing his letter of guarantee and paying his penalty fee. His actions weren’t too severe so he was reprimanded by the police before being released.

Kang Zhaoming didn’t say a word because he wanted to leave police custody as soon as possible. He saw Zhu Xiaozhang and Wang Shubin standing by at the front entrance of the holding area.

“Where is Guan Xin? What happened?” Kang Zhaoming urgently asked.

“She left a long time ago!” Wang Shubin replied without holding back. “Master Zhaoming, you weren’t here so we had no reason to stop Guan Xin from leaving!”

“Well, when she was leaving, what were her facial expressions? Did she look happy?” Kang Zhaoming asked again.

“No, she looked more like she was angry…” Wang Shubin carefully worded.

“Damn it. We invested so much time and effort for this!” Kang Zhaoming was unsatisfied. “How come this hospital is so strict on the rules?”

By the time the three troublemakers had left the hospital, the sea of flowers, guitar, and loudspeakers were all gone. They didn’t know where it went, but they didn’t care about it. His focus was to capture Guan Xin’s heart, but he has failed multiple times!

Kang Zhaoming wasn’t entirely sure if he was angry because Guan Xin didn’t accept his love or if it was because his opportunity was foiled.

The owner of the flower store at the end of the block had earned the most! After Kang Zhaoming had been arrested, Wang Shubin and Zhu Xiaozhang left the area. Thus, making the ten thousand of roses ownerless. The flower store owner ordered his workers to gather up all the flowers and store them in the basement.

The owner had picked up easy money. He planned to continue reusing these flowers as new and resell to Kang Zhaoming! When he saw the three waiting by the hospital entrance, he walked up to them with a smile. “Three bosses, do you need flowers? I have some cheap roses. Would you like to continue again tomorrow?”

“What the fuck!” Kang Zhaoming was unimpressed with the flower store owner. Buy it again? So he can make a fool out of himself tomorrow?

“Boss, didn’t you fail today? Why not continue trying tomorrow?” The flower store owner was unrelenting. He was envious of Yu Xiaoke and of how much she had earned. Even if he had scooped up ten thousand roses for free, it wasn’t as useful as having cash in hand.

The flower store owner shouldn’t have mentioned it. Kang Zhaoming was so upset at his failure that he was triggered to the onset of rage. It was a huge embarrassment that hurt his ego. He pointed at the flower store owner and said to Wang Shubin and Zhu Xiaozhang, “Beat him up! That motherfucker dared to teach me what to do!”

There’s a saying that describes the flower store owner: his greed knows no bounds. The owner had picked up to ten thousand worth of roses, but he still wasn’t satisfied. He wanted to resell the same flowers back to Kang Zhaoming!

The outcome was great. Wang Shubin and Zhu Xiaozhang had beaten the temper out of the flower store owner.

Even if the store owner has local gang connections, he knew of the leader called mad cow. However, his opponents were three people driving a Porsche Cayenne. One look and he could tell that they were wealthy people. He didn’t have the balls to provoke them. He could only cry and pray for mercy.

Kang Zhaoming’s Battle of Courtship was a massive failure. He was interrupted midway, and Guan Xin wasn’t even moved by his effort. To sum it up, Kang Zhaoming had wasted fifty thousand yuan.

That isn’t enough to make Kang Zhaoming give up. The next afternoon when it was close to the time for the workers to end their shift, Kang Zhaoming and his crew waited by the hospital’s entrance, waiting for Guan Xin to get off work.

“So with this situation at hand, what do you guys suggest I do?” Kang Zhaoming sighed out in disappointment. He was so confident before when he accepted the request from his family. He thought that he could demonstrate his usefulness when he accomplished this reward, but he didn’t expect that Guan Xin would be so hard to handle. No matter what he did, Guan Xin didn’t feel moved by his actions!

According to that logic, his House’s background matched Guan Xin’s House. They were a perfect match in terms of household names. So why wouldn’t Guan Xin feel motivated to join hands in a stronger House?

“Master Zhaoming, I feel that since Guan Xin had been growing up in a house full of intellects, she would’ve received an excellent education. That would explain why it is so hard to win her heart!” Wang Shubin reasoned.
