Although the young man earlier didn’t recognize them, the more experienced staff members did.
When XunMi entered the Xun residence, she immediately felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange.
“Mom, Dad. What’s wrong?” Why were they staring at her with such strange expressions? It was making her panic.
Father Xun lightly scoffed before pointing at the living room.
XunMi walked in with confusion. When she saw half a room filled with furry stuffed animals, her jaw dropped with shock. What is this?
XunMi thought that small mountain of stuffed animals was a bit…
“Father, are you preparing to start a gift shop? Or are you just collecting these cute things?” But this was so inconsistent her father’s style. Had he been so affected by Le family’s situation that he had completely changed his interests?
Father Xun rolled his eyes, “These are obviously presents for you. Quickly tell me the truth: who dramatically sent all of these?”
This was the first time he was seeing something such a, how should he put it, a unique method of gifting. His baby did have a soft spot for furry and adorable things. But it was to a normal degree!
Looking at all the weird shaped and sized animals, he could only sigh.
XunMi let out an awkward laugh. She believed she knew who the sender was.
Although she did want Han ge to send her a gift, she really only mentioned it in passing,
But now that this had happened, who was she to reject the gifts?╮(╯▽╰)╭
Since these were from Han ge, she needed to make sure she took good care of them.
Thus, with a wave of a hand, she had all of them sent to her own room. Luckily her closet was only half full.
Father and Mother Xun quietly watched their daughter busily scurry around. When she had finally settled down and they were just about to ask her questions, a butler announced that Boss Mo had arrived.
The two parents’ eyes met as they personally went to the front door to greet their guest. Frankly, they didn’t know why Boss Mo would come to the Xun house. They also didn’t know of their daughter’s relations with Boss Mo. They had heard of the rumors, as well as seen how Boss Mo shielded Xun family. However, they still couldn’t believe the truth.
“Boss Mo, you’ve come so late in the day! To what do we owe this pleasure?” They invited him into the living room and offered him tea before Father Xun started speaking.
Mother Xun went in the kitchen to give instructions. It was coincidentally about time for dinner to be served. No matter whether Boss Mo would ultimately stay or not, they still needed to make the preparations.
Standing behind Mo WenHan was Qiao Yuan, his lips twitching. It seems President Xun still didn’t know that his Boss had his eyes set on his daughter.
“Father, I’m here to see XunMi.” Mo WenHan spoke without consideration for the shock that he would cause.
Father Xun stiffened, his eyes widening while staring at Mo WenHan as if he had seen a ghost.
Qiao Yuan averted his gaze as he attempted to hold back his laughter. Boss was so direct. The reigning king of the business world was just inexperienced in his personal life.
Calling out ‘Father’ on the first meeting, isn’t he afraid that his father in law would kick him out immediately? Qiao Yuan would never admit that he was excitedly waiting to watch the response from the audience seats.
“Huh, what did you call me?” Father Xun thought he had something in his ears. Why else would he hear Boss Mo called himself ‘father?’
Mo WenHan was a bit puzzled, but still obediently repeated, “Father.”
This time Father Xun looked as if he had been struck by lightning. Pointing a finger at Mo WenHan, he could only repeatedly say, “You…You!” He had truly been shocked.
“President Xun, um, did Madam not inform you yet? Boss has already proposed to her.” As Boss’ efficient secretary, Qiao Yuan naturally stepped forward to explain. His Boss was good for everything. However, he still worried for this man and his habit of maintaining his silence with an emotionless face.
Father Xun was now dumbfounded. His daughter had been proposed to? As the father, he didn’t even know a thing!
“Han ge, what are you doing here?” XunMi had just finished organizing the gifts and returned downstairs when she saw the man sitting in the living room. Happily, she rushed to his side and asked smilingly.
“Are you here to send me flowers? If they aren’t pretty, then I won’t accept them.” There’s been flowers and a ring. They were only lacking flowers. Now the man himself has shown up, so she was able to take an educated guess on the purpose of his visit.
Mo WenHan’s eyes brightened, quickly opening the box in his hand and taking out the blue rose inside. Getting on one knee, he presented the flower to XunMi.
XunMi stared at the beautiful blue rose while deep in thought.
“Do you not like it? Tell me if you don’t like it. I’ll immediately go buy another.” Mo WenHan saw XunMi was only staring at the rose with no intentions of reaching out to accept it, causing him to panic.
“No, I like it alot. A lot. Thank you, Han ge.” XunMi took the flower with both hands, carefully bringing it to her lips for a kiss. Not forgetting to thank the delivery man, she bent down to give him a kiss on the cheeks as her face split into a bright smile.
Mo WenHan held XunMi’s hand, excitedly asking, “Then you’ve agreed?”
XunMi nodded. She had agreed to him already anyways.
Mo WenHan happily stood up and pulled XunMi into his embrace.
“Han ge, how did you think of sending me a blue rose?” XunMi stroked the rose’s sculpted petals as sweetness seeped through her heart.
Mo WenHan looked down at the blue rose in her hand, “When I first saw it, I could only think of you. So I bought it. I thought that you would like it. They suite us very well.” He didn’t know how to describe this feeling, but he had known immediately that it was the flower for her.
XunMi’s eyes twinkled with love, “Do you know what the meaning of a blue rose is?” Mo WenHan shook his head.
“Our meeting was predestined. Our connected souls allow us to have endless romantic feelings for each other.”
“I hope to have this kind of endless destiny with you,” Mo WenHan’s heart fluttered. It felt like there was an idea that was about to break through. As long as he tried hard, he would be able to grab onto it.
Father Xun was frozen in shock (￣△￣; ) watching the two’s show of deep affections. Inside, he was ready to collapse. His well-behaved Qearl unexpectedly had reached the point of marriage and engagement when he wasn’t looking?
His heart was a mess. He needed time to sit and think. He picked up his cup of tea and downed it, hoping it would help wake him up.
