Back in his room, Li Zhao sat on the sofa and silently took out 'Book of Treasured Wisdom on Love' from the drawer. As long as his effort was deep, Ting Ting would surely be moved. He hadn't even turned two pages of the book when Li Zhao received a message from Yao Yuguang.
[Yao Yuguang: Brother, I found another photo. Take a look.]
Li Zhao opened the photo sent by Yao Yuguang and fell silent. This was the photo of a large family. In the middle was an old couple with grey hair. The body standing on their right stood upright, no childishness on his angelic face.
Behind him stood a young couple. They were a smiling man and a woman in a cheongsam. Her head was slightly down and she was staring at the boy in front of her like she was worried.
[Yao Yuguang: In order to find this photo, I opened all the jewellery cabinets in my mother's room.]
[Zhao Zhao Has Good Luck: Thank you.]
He stared at this photo for a long time before using photoshop software to keep the image of Ting Ting alone. All he wanted was what Ting Ting looked like when he was a child. Li Zhao didn't want those who brought painful memories to Ting Ting. A lot of self-righteous care and troubles was just acting for themselves.
[Yao Yuguang: Looking at my hard work, can you accept me as a younger brother? If not, I can ask again next time.]
[Zhao Zhao Has Good Luck: Get lost!]
[Yao Yuguang: Okay.]
After Yao Yuguang sent this, Li Zhao continued to look at the love book. Finally, he came to the conclusion that the person who wrote this book must've never been in love. If Li Zhao really followed the method in this book then he would be sickened to death before he got Ting Ting.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Li Zhao glanced at his ordinary clothes and remembered that he said he was going to take a bath. Yet he hadn't even changed his clothes. He hurried to change into his pyjamas.
Yan Ting knocked on the door and waited a while, but Li Zhao still didn't come to open the door for him.
Chagrin and self-blame appeared on the calm face. Was Zhao Zhao angry with him? Yan Ting turned to look at the stairs and saw the housekeeper standing there with a smile. Even the chef aunty was standing downstairs to wait for the result.
The people in the house were all taken by Zhao Zhao and everyone was infected by his lively personality. A year ago, they didn't dare say a word in front of Yan Ting. Now they were all watching the show.
Li Zhao changed his clothes and opened the door to meet Yan Ting's eyes. To his surprise, Yan Ting was holding a bunch of flowers. Baby's breath? Did Ting Ting finally go to the circle of friends and open the article on the meaning of flowers? Then did he come with the baby's breath to reject Li Zhao's intentions? No, that wasn't right. This bouquet of flowers wasn't the one he had given to Ting Ting. It looked twice the size.
"This bouquet of flowers... I'll give it to you." Yan Ting wasn't sure if Li Zhao's meaning was what he thought. However, what if it was?
He was afraid that Zhao Zhao would be sad at not getting a response.
Li Zhao took the flowers and rubbed his toes against the floor. "Do you know... what the meaning of baby's breath is?"
