Yan Jing had already gotten someone to prepare the guest room for Su Tao. When he entered, the fragrance of flowers blew against his nostrils before he looked at the television cabinet. There was an azure vase with a few flowers that had enchanting and delicate yellow flower buds in it. Looking at Su Tao's direction at the vase, Yan Jing explained, "There's an osmanthus flower tree behind the courtyard, and these were taken from there. The vase is usually placed in my room, but it's for you today. I can take them away if you don't like them."
Su Tao sighed at how meticulous Yan Jing was, then he smiled. "Don't take them away, I'll feel hurt if you do!"
Shaking his finger, Su Tao recited, "A light yellow delicate figure that only leaves a fragrance behind; No need for bright greens and reds, the osmanthus is a flower destined to s.h.i.+ne. This is a verse that Li Qingzhao used to admire osmanthus, so if you take it away, I'll surely be disappointed. So how can I not be hurt?"
After a brief stun, Yan Jing sourly replied, "I never expected you to be pretty moody."
Nodding his head, Su Tao gravely responded, "I'm a deeply cultured youth in my bones."
Yan Jing teased, "I hate cultured people the most, always making a fuss out of nothing and constantly speaking those moody verses, poems, or songs that feel as though they understand life the most in the entire world. They're just ignorant, superficial, and arrogant."
Su Tao never expected that Yan Jing would cuss, so he bitterly smiled. "Big Sister Jing, which ignorant fool irritated you to hold such resentment?"
His words had stirred emotions in Yan Jing, so she sat on a chair. Su Tao looked at her, she wore a purple bra beneath her nightgown, with a huge neckline and her fair neck exposed along with the platinum necklace with a sapphire embedded in the pendant. Although she looked incredibly alluring, she was actually very reserved.
Yan Jing sighed, "Hua Yan's father was a university professor, and I was his student."
She never looked back into the past, but Yan Jing felt like sharing Su Tao her complicated relations.h.i.+p for some reason.
Su Tao suddenly felt awkward, so he joked, "I never expected you two to actually have a relations.h.i.+p between a teacher and a student."
Yan Jing smiled. "He's extremely talented, and despite being in science and engineering, he's proficient in verses, songs, and poems. At that time, there's a huge group of girls that would go crazy over him, and I was the one that succeeded and even married him. But during the first year of our marriage, he suddenly decided to go into business. Although he did not earn a lot back then, his business started to stabilise. It was at that time that someone came to him to invest, and because he was ignorant and simple-minded, he had no idea that it was a trap!"
She did not continue to speak, but Su Tao had already figured out what happened in the end. Helplessly shaking his head, Su Tao replied, "He was being framed, how is that related to being cultured?"
Smiling at herself in self-mockery, Yan Jing responded, "Although I know that they're not related, I still don't like it!"
After a brief pondering, Su Tao exposed, "It's not that you don't like it, but you're afraid of falling for it again, right? The truth is, you actually like people that are cultured in your heart."
Yan Jing weakly sighed after a brief stun before she changed the topic, "So what's your intention of inviting Song Sichen and Dou Fanggang? Can you reveal it now?"
