Lin Qian's heart skipped a beat.

She didn't expect that it would be Wen Shuyan standing outside the door.

It was late at night, and she thought it was Chen Xiaopan coming to chat with her.

"Wen... Brother Shuyan."

She didn't accept the box of strawberries.

I had a very bad feeling about it for no reason.

Her video call with Lu Beiting had not yet ended.

The phone is placed on the table stand, just right, facing the door.

They can broadcast everything live to Lu Beiting.

Lin Qian, with her back to her phone, was instantly drenched in sweat.

Wen Shuyan, oblivious to her unusual behavior, continued, "You and Chen Xiaopan both have them, and she's already accepted them. Don't you like them?"

It turns out it wasn't just for her alone.

Lin Qian's tense nerves relaxed slightly. She took the box of strawberries and forced a smile. "I like them."

Wen Shuyan asked with concern, "Are you still feeling dizzy?"

"I'm much better now, I'm really fine." Lin Qian just wanted to end the conversation as soon as possible. "It's getting late, Brother Shuyan, you should get some rest too."

Wen Shuyan: "Okay, good night."

After saying that, Lin Qian quickly closed the door and walked briskly to the table.

Sure enough, Lu Beiting's face darkened on the screen.

The man had a cold and stern face, his thin lips pressed into a straight line, and he remained silent, only his dark pupils churning with overwhelming emotions.

It’s over.

He seems angry.

I have to coax him again!

Lin Qian bit her lip and whispered, "Brother Bei Ting?"

Lu Beiting curled his lips into a mocking smile, his gaze falling on the box of strawberries she was holding, and he sneered:

"Oh."

His voice was extremely indifferent, as if it carried shards of ice, instantly lowering the surrounding temperature.

Even through the screen, Lin Qian felt a chill run down her spine.

This man looks terrifying when he's angry...

Lin Qian quickly tried to soothe him: "Don't be upset. I'll give this box of strawberries to Chen Xiaopan later. She's a foodie, she loves to eat, she'll eat anything. Okay?"

Lu Beiting asked expressionlessly, "What's your room number?"

Lin Qian: "Huh?"

Lu Beiting's face was grim as he repeated, word by word, "I asked you for your room number."

Lin Qian was on the verge of tears. "You're not going to fly over tonight and arrest me, are you?"

"I won't arrest you," Lu Beiting said coldly, "send me your location, and you'll be waiting."

After saying that, Lu Beiting hung up the phone.

What exactly does he mean?

Lin Qian nervously sent him the hotel name and room number via WeChat.

The other party didn't reply with a single word.

Are you really angry?

Lin Qian bit her lip, her mind filled with the phrase "Just you wait."

What are you waiting for?

What exactly is he trying to do?

During that time, Lin Qian's heart was constantly in her throat.

She even ran to Chen Xiaopan's room to deliver the strawberries Wen Shuyan had given her.

Chen Xiaopan had just finished eating half of her meal when she saw the box Lin Qian had brought over, and her eyes lit up.

"Good heavens, this box is so big, are you really going to give it to me?"

Lin Qian patted her on the back, "Eat up, eat up, you gluttonous girl, I know you like it."

Chen Xiaopan was so moved she almost cried, saying, "Waaah, Sister Qianqian, you're so kind! But you really won't eat one?"

Lin Qian: "...No."

My partner at home is angry.

Chen Xiaopan: "The strawberries Manager Wen gave us were amazing, so big and sweet! The gift box was also incredibly exquisite. To be honest, it didn't feel like they were bought from downstairs; it seemed like they were custom-made. Wow, it's so great to have a boss like that!!"

Lin Qian: "I don't have much of an appetite right now, so you can have it all."

"Wow!" Chen Xiaopan exclaimed excitedly, "I love you, kisses!"

Lin Qian chatted with her for a couple more minutes, but when she returned to her room, she was still uneasy.

She had a bad feeling.

What exactly is Lu Beiting trying to do?!

Lin Qian sat blankly on the bed for more than ten minutes.

Not long after, the room bell rang.

Lin Qian nervously went to open the door.

A young female deliverywoman was standing outside the door.

She asked, "Excuse me, are you Ms. Lin Qian?"

Lin Qian nodded. "Yes, that's me. What's wrong? I didn't buy anything..."

As soon as she finished speaking, the girl pulled over the small cart next to her.

On the trolley, there was a large bouquet of bright and beautiful roses, a large box of bright red strawberries, and an exquisite jewelry box.

"These are all orders placed for you by Mr. Lu Beiting. Have a pleasant evening!"

After saying that, the female deliveryman left.

Lin Qian stood there, dumbfounded.

I won't go into the details of the rose bouquet.

This huge box of strawberries must weigh at least ten pounds! Each one is plump and juicy, like a ruby.

The moment she opened the jewelry box, a dazzling light refracted from within, almost blinding her.

Tiffany's strawberry brooch with rubies, emeralds, and diamonds; Bulgari's "Garden" collection of colored gemstone strawberry bracelets; Cartier's "Strawberry Waterfall" high jewelry necklace; and Harry Winston's diamond strawberry earrings...

Lin Qian stood there, bewildered.

Did she stir up a hornet's nest?

Just then, a message popped up on my phone screen.

Lu Beiting: [Have you received them all?]

Lin Qian: [Received! Great! Lots! of strawberries!]

The next second, Lu Beiting sent a voice message, his voice cold and domineering, commanding in a deep voice:

"Eat it all, not a single piece. Don't touch anything other men give you, understand?"
