BXBX NOVEL Chapter 135 - [Bonus ]
"Really now, Chi has a bit of temper. Though he doesn\'t look like one, he really hates waking up in the morning. The last time I tried to wake him up, he threw a huge tantrum, but he looked absolutely the cutest with his messy hair and pout. He sulks for a long time if you wake him early," said Grandma Fang with a loud guffaw. Fang Chi, who had come out of the room, heard her tell Lang about his dark history, and his face immediately turned black.
Seriously? His grandmother just asked him not to embarrass himself, so what was this now? Telling embarrassing stories to Lang while laughing heartily, what will Yu Dong think once she hears that he likes to sleep in? Wouldn\'t she take him as a lazy pig?
Unbeknownst to himself, Fang Chi has started to worry about how Yu Dong viewed him.
"Sister Lang?" he hurriedly interrupted his grandmother. He was worried that she would start talking about how he liked eating sweet and couldn\'t handle spicy. Or the time when he cried because he peed his pants because a spider fell on him, or about the time when he got upset because his porridge wasn\'t watery enough. He didn\'t want Yu Dong to think that his grandmother spoiled him!
"Ah, you are here," Lang who didn\'t know what to say upon finding out that the innocent Fang Chi had a temper of his own. Still, the sweet-looking Chen Mi was a bit of a brat when he was around Yu Dong, so she couldn\'t say anything. Discarding the newfound knowledge, she handed the package to Fang Chi. "Sister Yu sent me to give you this. She bought this for you in town today. She didn\'t let me see what was inside it, nor did she tell me anything. So, I can\'t tell you either, you just have to take a look at it yourself," without saying anything more, she bid goodbye to Grandma Fang and Fang Chi. After all, she was finished with her task, and now she couldn\'t wait to go back to Zhu Qian.
"Oh, what is it?" said Grandma Fang once they returned inside their house. She was really excited to see her grandson being treated so preciously. See, she wasn\'t wrong when she said that Yu Dong was the good one for Fang Chi, that Mu brat kept running her mouth and kept making promises, but she didn\'t even give a leftover sweet at her house to Fang Chi as a gift!
Fang Chi didn\'t know either. He and Yu Dong had never really talked before, so he didn\'t know what she might have given him. But he was still curious about it. Before he opened it, he thought Yu Dong would have sent something casually like jewelry or something. He didn\'t expect to see a bunch of blossoming roses with their roots still attached in a handful of soil. The roses were all different kinds of vibrant shades, and the most beautiful one was the darkest red with a few dew drops still intact on it.
Fang Chi felt his eyes widen as he brushed his trembling fingers over the soft petals. Ever since he was a child, he has received a lot of gifts from his grandmother. Everything he asked for was always something reasonable that could be used in the household. Never before did he receive a gift that he liked so much!
"Ah, that child is really a good one," exclaimed Grandma Fang, smiling to herself. Looks like her worries were completely unfounded. Yu Dong genuinely cared about her grandson. "She really pays close attention to details, to think after just two meetings she understood you like gardening."
Fang Chi blushed as he wrapped the roses back up and hurried out to the backyard, probably to look for a pot or container to plant them in.
"OI! Chi, at least have your dinner!" called out Grandma Fang. But Fang Chi never once looked back and kept running like his feet were on fire. Seeing him rush, Grandma Fang chuckled. It was a good thing she didn\'t agree to those half-hearted matches, or else she would have never seen her grandson brimming with happiness.
Fang Chi didn\'t know that his grandmother laughed at his flustered appearance. All of his attention was focused on planting the blooming roses that Yu Dong had given him. She got them from God knows where. He carefully planted the rose stalk by choosing the medium drainage potting soil then created a potting soil mixture consisting of one-third of potting soil, one-third of garden compost made from the vegetable scraps, and one-third of fertilizers.
This was something that Yu Dong brought for him. He needs to take proper care of it. However, he didn\'t know how she realized his love for gardening. He was delighted to marry a person who seemed to know what he needed the most and would always rush to help him whenever he needed it, like when he was trapped in the mountain, and Yu Dong saved him. Like when he drowned, and she jumped in to save him. And like these roses, he didn\'t even tell her that he liked flowers that smelled great, yet Yu Dong somehow figured it out.
Fang Chi raised his hand and delicately ran his fingers on the petals, they were soft just like his heart, and as for the scent, it was like brimming with love.
He silently crouched in front of the roses and giggled from time to time. It didn\'t matter how long he looked at those roses... he just couldn\'t help but think that it wasn\'t enough. Now he couldn\'t wait for Yu Dong to bring the bride price and mark him as hers.. Because maybe, just maybe, love might come knocking on his door.
