At the corner of the street, a beautiful flower shop was bursting with color.
Xi Yemo picked a large bouquet of pink roses, which were in full bloom, as radiant as a young woman's rosy cheeks. He also bought a large box of chocolates, the box and its ribbon both pink - the young woman's favorite color.
Mr. Xi then hurriedly dashed back home, right hand holding the pink roses and left hand holding the pink bag full of chocolates.
"Master Xi." The butler greeted him, finding the sight of his young master with these gifts quite harmonious.
Xi Yemo didn't pay him any attention and headed upstairs.
"Master Xi, the young mistress has gone out," the butler quietly said.
As expected, Xi Yemo instantly turned around, "Where did she go? How long has she been gone?"
His urgent tone made the butler give him a second look.
Goodness, the young master was indeed overly anxious.
