“That’s true.” Xu Baohan frowned. “An Lan, next time you see him, you don’t have to entertain him at all. I think he’s trying to poach you to get back at me. How childish.”
“Mhm.” An Lan sighed. “Why is your ex-girlfriend’s ex-boyfriend bothering me when I’m in a relationship with you? He better not provoke me.”
“Next time he comes looking for you, just tell me,” Xu Baohan said with a frown.
The next day, when An Lan went to work, Yan Wen handed her a bouquet of white roses. “They were sent over early in the morning, Lawyer An. Was it a romantic gift from Chief Judge Xu? By the way, I think the white roses are quite suitable for you.”
An Lan’s eyes flashed with surprise. Ever since Xu Baohan gave her flowers on their first date, he had not bought flowers for her. Why was he suddenly back to being romantic?
She took the card and looked at it. When she saw the words ‘Tang Zheng’ on it, her expression was as if she had eaten SH*T.
She threw it directly to Yan Wen. “Get rid of it.”
After that, white roses were sent over every day at work. Everyone knew that this was Lawyer An’s new suitor.
Li Yuchen hesitated for a few days before informing Xu Baohan. When Xu Baohan found out about it, he came to the law firm to look for An Lan.
An Lan had just ended her meeting with a client and smiled when she saw him. “You’re here to pick me up from work.”
“You have a lot of white roses in your office,” Xu Baohan said sullenly. “I heard that someone gave them to you.”
An Lan cursed Yan Wen in her heart. She asked her to throw them away but she did not.. However, it was understandable. How could young girls like her bear to throw fresh roses away. “It’s all thanks to you. Now, Tang Zheng is haunting me, but he hasn’t appeared yet, so don’t let your imagination run wild.”
“I’m afraid you’ll be moved by his flowers.” Xu Baohan suddenly became irritated. Why didn’t he think of sending flowers every day? They were living together and he was slacking off. “It’s a pity I don’t know his number, and I don’t know where he lives.”
“Then forget it, he didn’t disturb me. Besides, I won’t be moved by a mere bouquet of flowers. You better don’t go and ask your ex-girlfriend for his number,” An Lan said darkly. “If I find out that you are in contact with your ex-girlfriend, I would definitely destroy you.”
“I won’t.” Sensing her concern, Xu Baohan heaved a sigh of relief. However, his sense of crisis did not dissipate. “An Lan, I’ll start sending you flowers tomorrow as well.”
“Don’t send them,” An Lan quickly stopped him. “Don’t waste money.”
Xu Baohan smiled. “You are already starting to save money for me.”
“No,” An Lan coughed. “But you can give me a red packet using the money you intend to spent on the flowers.”
“…”
Xu Baohan didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry. This woman had definitely fallen into a money pit.
..
After his half-month holiday from the courthouse ended, Xu Baohan returned to work. It wasn’t easy for him to return to work, and there were a lot of cases waiting for him to take over. Every night, he would be busy until 9 pm before he got off work. An Lan’s place was too far away, so he didn’t go over.
On the other hand, An Lan sometimes was not used to returning to a deserted house. Fortunately, she would soon accompany Xiao Si to Hong Kong to discuss a collaboration. This time, it was mainly for a B2C project. The investment wasn’t small, and as lawyer, she needed to be around the entire time.
The time was relatively long, so she drove straight to Xu Baohan’s place and slept there at night.
When Xu Baohan found out, his brows could crush a fly. “So you’re saying that you’re going to be with Xiao Si for the next five days?”
“He’s a newlywed, why are you so nervous?” An Lan rolled her eyes. “I got it. You want me to go on a business trip with Mr Nian instead, right?”
