A bouquet of red roses... What could it mean?


"Hello, my... fiance..."

The deep, low and mellow voice resounded in her brain as Su Jin pulled a cushion from the side to cover her face. After a few minutes, she rolled over. Dropped at the headboard, the cushion rolled a few times. Agitated, she opened her eyes.

There was a sharp clarity in her eyes that did not reveal her sleepiness, just the dark shadows under her eyes.


Messing helplessly with her hair, Su Jin got out of bed to look at the clock on the headboard; it was only six o'clock. She had always slept well but for her to actually suffer from insomnia, shaking her head, she retreated back to bed.

It's all because of the male lead that lingered around like a malignant spirit!

His shocking behavior ruined all her plans.

Originally, she thought that she would be a bystander in the male and female lead's romance. She would complete her degree, then idly, she would become a freelance writer or perhaps... She could have met someone.

But now the male lead, who was supposed to have a blazing romance with the female lead, was interested in her. Su Jin furrowed her brows. After that strange meeting yesterday at the back passageway entrance, Lu Xi came over to her home and mooched a free dinner. Through his efforts in just one meal, that con artist managed to win over the favour of her parents. They might have even suggested that he stay over if not for the fact that he lacked his luggage and already had a place to stay that his assistant had found for him.

So... Su Jin soothed her pounding forehead, what did Lu Xi have in mind? She could not believe that he could have his own beauty standards that were not the latest trend in this novel's world.

If he was not interested in this face of hers, then what could be the reason for the gentleman of the Lu family to give up on his preferences to make her the centre of his attention? Could his grandfather be the reason...

Those thoughts swirled in her head for a long time. Shaking her head, Su Jin finally abandoned that idea.

Forget it. For the time being she would let nature take its course and cross the bridge when she came to it.

Placing her hand over her heart, a wry smile appeared on her lips. Although she had lived in an orphanage since she was young, she was not reclusive and did not have an extreme personality. She was indifferent by nature in general but those dearest to her; in her past life, there was only Aunt Fu, the orphanage director, who managed to do so.
