Even though the little girl knew nothing about boy-girl relationships, she felt Xu Jinchen and Zi Beiying ought to be dating. Otherwise, it felt odd for them to hang out.

Xu Jinchen and Zi Beiying could not help feeling happy when the little girl said they looked like a good match.

“Don’t tell me the guy is too cheap to even buy a flower? So what if he is good-looking? I didn’t expect him to be so petty. No matter how handsome he is, I would never accept a man like him as my boyfriend,” said a woman in disdain from nearby.

“Precisely! Who is he saving the money for if he is unwilling to spend it on his girl? Is he planning to use it on some other girl?”

“Uh huh. Men do this all the time. They are generous to outsiders while they are petty to their closest kin.”

These words instantly left Xu Jinchen awkward. Of course, he could afford to buy a single stalk of flower! He could afford to buy hundreds and hundreds of flowers, so one flower was nothing..

However, he was worried that Zi Beiying would turn down his flower, so he wanted to pretend to get forced into buying the flowers and ask Zi Beiying to do him the favor of accepting them.

Although the women’s gossip made him feel awkward, it made him even more determined to buy flowers.

Zi Beiying felt tickled. She wanted to see how Xu Jinchen would handle this matter, so she stood by leisurely waiting for the action.

“How much do your flowers cost? I will buy all of them, but you have to help me give them to that lady over there. I am worried she might not accept them,” said Xu Jinchen. Not only would he be able to react in response to what the crowd was saying, Zi Beiying would not have the chance to reject them.

Zi Beiying instantly glared at Xu Jinchen. She knew exactly what he was trying to pull! Although she acted angry, she was happy in her heart.

“$10 per stalk. Since I have 20 stalks of flowers here, that makes $200.” The girl was delighted to make the sale. She instantly handed the flowers to Zi Beiying. She was worried that Zi Beiying might refuse to take them, so she said sadly, “Miss, please accept them! I haven’t sold anything all morning. I had such a hard time selling them…”

Just as Xu Jinchen expected, Zi Beiying was incapable of refusing the little girl, especially when she put on a sad face. If Zi Beiying did not accept those flowers, it would make her look like a bully.

Zi Beiying accepted those flowers as she glared at Xu Jinchen as though she was upset that he got her involved. However, Xu Jinchen kept looking at her innocently.

However, Xu Jinchen could not help worrying. Despite knowing it was impossible for Zi Beiying to turn down the little girl, he could not suppress his worry. The moment Zi Beiying accepted the flowers, he heaved a sigh of relief and immediately gave the girl the money.

“Thank you so much. I hope you two will live a long happy life together and have plenty of children.” The little girl took the money and thanked them before she said a few nice things and left.

The little girl’s words instantly left Xu Jinchen and Zi Beiying embarrassed.

“It was all your fault. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have said all those strange things to us!” Zi Beiying glared at Xu Jinchen and spoke angrily, but in her heart, she liked the things she heard and certainly hoped so.
