Today was the traditional Chinese Valentine’s Day. The streets and alleys were filled with all kinds of promotional posters. Of course, they were also very beautiful.

Qi Mei usually dressed formally in a simple and elegant style. But today was different. She wore a wine-red dress, which made her skin look especially fair and delicate. Besides, she was the kind of beauty who could take one’s breath away at a glance! That was right, she was the publicly acknowledged school belle of her year.

When her professor introduced her to Yu Nan, Yu Nan muttered to himself, wondering if everyone was giving her preferential treatment because she was beautiful. Even her professor was beguiled by her charms? Was such a beautiful woman able to focus on her skills? However, when Qi Mei entered work mode, her performance was a slap in Yu Nan’s face for his idea of judging people by their appearances.

Qi Mei smiled and nodded.

“Speaking of which, I’m also your matchmaker. When you two get married, I must sit at the main table,” Yu Nan said with a smile.

“Sure.” Qi Mei’s boyfriend, Yin Ziyuan, was also a Jingda University alum. The two of them did not know each other when studying at the university. Yin Ziyuan was a venture capitalist, and they came into contact because of Ping An Zhi Xing’s financing project. Therefore, it was not unreasonable for Yu Nan to say that he was a matchmaker.

When Qi Mei came out of Yu Nan’s office, she was met with teasing expressions on everyone’s faces on her way back. When she saw the roses on the desk, she instantly understood. She pursed her lips and smiled. Just as she was about to send a message to Yin Ziyuan, her phone rang. It was Yin Ziyuan.

Yin Ziyuan’s voice sounded the moment the call connected. “Babe, I’m sorry. I suddenly received a last-minute notice from the company that I have to go on a business trip to the neighboring city.”

She didn’t expect this to happen and paused for a moment.

Yin Ziyuan knew that he was in the wrong, so he coaxed gently, “When I come back, I’ll definitely make it up to you. Don’t be unhappy. Otherwise, I won’t be able to work in peace.”

She said helplessly, “I’m fine. You know me. I don’t care about these festivals that much. Your work is more important.”

Yin Ziyuan thought of something and asked, “By the way, did you receive the flowers I sent you?”

She fiddled with the delicate roses and held the gazes of her colleagues from time to time. “I did. They are very beautiful. Everyone is envious of me.”

“I’ll make you the envy of everyone in the future.” Yin Ziyuan smiled with relief.

Qi Mei smiled, hung up the phone, and returned to work.

“Sister Qi Mei, are you still not leaving?” Her assistant, Bi Yue’er, walked over to her carefully. Bi Yue’er’s boyfriend had already called and she was about to get off work. However, seeing that her boss did not leave, she could not help but feel a little guilty.

“You can go first. I’ll leave after I’m done with this,” Qi Mei said casually.

Bi Yue’er gave an “I got it” expression on her face. “Oh, you must be waiting for Mr. Yin to pick you up.”

When Yin Ziyuan was trying to get with Qi Mei, it was quite a spectacular scene. Many people witnessed it, so they were really envious of this couple. It wasn’t simply because of a man’s fervent courtship of a woman. They were all adults and not as innocent as they were in school, so it was hard not to be envious that they could still encounter romantic pursuits like this as in idol dramas after entering society. Moreover, both Yin Ziyuan and Qi Mei were so excellent.

Qi Mei smiled without saying anything. She was just too lazy to go home early and be questioned by her mother again for not going out on a date with Yin Ziyuan today. After working for another while, she looked at the time, stretched, and prepared to call a taxi home. Perhaps there were too many people taking taxis today, she also had to wait in line on the taxi-hailing app. While waiting for the driver to take the order, she opened Weibo and happened to see a picture of the sky that Yin Ziyuan had posted earlier.

She clicked on it and was about to give it a like, but with an accidental click, she happened to see who liked this post. The profile picture at the top was a selfie of a young girl. She didn’t know what she was thinking at that time, but she clicked through that girl’s homepage and saw the roses in her latest post.

It was normal for girls to show off the roses they received during the Chinese Valentine’s Festival, but when Qi Mei turned to look at the roses she had received, the only abnormal thing was that the roses were exactly the same as those in that post whether it was the white wrapping paper or the black ribbon.

Qi Mei knew that she shouldn’t make such a wild guess. That young girl only gave Yin Ziyuan a thumbs up. And today was Chinese Valentine’s Day, so it was normal for that girl’s boyfriend to send her roses. Perhaps it was just a coincidence that the roses were bought from the same store. At this moment, Qi Mei received a call from the taxi driver, saying he was about to arrive at the company building. She picked up the bouquet of roses and got into the car.

Just as the driver was about to start the engine, she suddenly asked, “Excuse me, can I change the address?”
