Chapter 105: Isn't it just a rose confession? Anyone can do that.
"Don't worry, sister, have you forgotten? I also study nutrition."
Shiho Miyano chuckled, a hint of smugness in her voice.
"Although it's instant noodles, I've already added tomatoes and cucumbers to it, so the nutritional content is definitely up to standard."
"As long as you can take care of yourself, that's good."
Akemi Miyano breathed a sigh of relief, then paused, her voice trembling. She had originally intended to say, "Your older sister will be able to take you away from here soon,"
But as the words were about to come out, he realized that he wasn't entirely confident yet. If the plan failed, not only would his own life be in danger, but he would also implicate his sister.
To avoid disappointing her younger sister, she had no choice but to forcibly change the subject.
"Oh, by the way, the coffee shop here has a TV, and they're showing a Valentine's Day program right now. Someone's actually confessing their love in the street, it's quite a scene..."
"Is it that program on Nichiri TV? I'm watching it now."
Shiho Miyano's gaze returned to the computer screen, and a mocking smile reappeared on her face.
"These people are really sick, exposing their private affairs in public and being watched by a bunch of strangers. Is that really interesting?"
"But I think it's very romantic..."
Akemi Miyano softly retorted, her tone tinged with longing.
"I wonder if the girl he confessed to will accept his confession..."
Before she could finish speaking, her voice suddenly became urgent and surprised.
"Shiho, look at the TV! What's that?!"
"Sister, I saw it too!"
Shiho Miyano stared at the computer screen with her icy blue eyes, her mockery instantly replaced by deep astonishment.
"These red things falling from the sky... are they rose petals?"
……
Just as shocked as the Miyano sisters were all the onlookers below the office building.
Just now, after Saku Norishi knelt down and confessed his love, everyone was still urging Eri Kisaki to respond, creating a lively yet tense atmosphere.
Before Eri could speak, bright red petals suddenly fell from mid-air, like butterflies fluttering in the sky.
Someone instinctively reached out and caught a few petals. Only when their fingertips touched the soft and delicate texture did they realize that these red things were actually fresh rose petals!
In the blink of an eye, a grand and romantic rain of roses began to fall on the plaza below the office building.
Countless petals fell in a flurry, blanketing the entire square in a sea of red.
As the petals fall, the unique and rich fragrance of roses instantly fills the air, refreshing the soul and dispelling the hustle and bustle of the city.
Everyone around was stunned, looking up with disbelief on their faces, some even forgetting to make a sound.
"What...what's going on? Where did these petals come from?"
Saku Hoshi looked up in surprise. The night sky was pitch black, and the countless red petals obscured his vision, making it impossible for him to discern their origin.
Eri was initially surprised as well. She subconsciously raised her hand and caught a petal. The soft touch on her fingertips and the fragrance lingering around her nose brought her back to her senses.
The next second, a familiar figure slowly walked out from the periphery of the crowd, his gaze piercing through the layers of people and landing directly on her.
The moment Eri saw that figure, all her doubts vanished, and a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.
But she still forced a smile, deliberately putting on a stern face, her tone tinged with reproach: "Idiot! You're a whole hour late!"
Lin Xiuyi strode up to her, ignoring the gazes of everyone around him and Saku Norifumi, who was still kneeling on the ground, apologetic smile on his face.
"I'm sorry, Eri, it took me a while to prepare these things. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
"Hmph, all this fancy stuff is so impractical," Eri Kisaki said, turning her face away, her words contradicting her true feelings.
"Really?"
Lin Xiuyi raised an eyebrow, deliberately feigning seriousness, and reached for her phone in her pocket.
"Then I'll make them stop now and take back the rest of the petals."
"Don't!"
Eri quickly reached out to stop him, and only when her fingertips touched his warm palm did she realize how hasty her actions were.
Seeing Lin Xiuyi's ambiguous smile, she knew perfectly well that she had been deliberately teased, and with a touch of self-reproach, she shouted...
"...Okay, okay, I like it, alright?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a tightness around her waist. Lin Xiu reached out and pulled her into a close embrace, his hand gently stroking her back.
"Eri, whatever you like is fine."
"Shuichi..."
Eri looked up and met Hideaki Hayashi's affectionate eyes.
Remembering how he had specially prepared this grand shower of roses to surprise me...
All the dissatisfaction in the female lawyer's heart vanished in an instant, leaving only a deep sense of gratitude and happiness.
Overwhelmed with emotion, she forgot that she was surrounded by onlookers, and tiptoed to gently kiss Lin Xiuyi's lips.
Lin Xiuyi was slightly taken aback, then reached back and held the back of her head, deepening the kiss.
The two embraced and kissed without regard for others, instantly plunging Saku Norifumi, who was still kneeling on one knee nearby, into extreme embarrassment.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the two embracing, and no one paid any attention to Norifumi Saku anymore.
He knelt stiffly on the ground, unsure whether to get up or remain still.
If he stands up, he will immediately become the focus of everyone's attention and become a laughing stock.
But kneeling there, watching helplessly as the woman he loved passionately kissed another man, felt like his heart was being cut by a knife, bleeding with pain.
At this point, the onlookers finally understood who had meticulously prepared this romantic rain of roses.
Everyone burst into applause, which was thunderous, but it was also mixed with many women's complaints about their male companions.
"Look at their confession! That's real romance!"
"When you confessed to me, all you gave me was a tattered bouquet of flowers, just like that idiot. Look at this guy's grand gesture!"
"I'm telling you, if you ever propose to me again, it has to be like this, or I absolutely won't say yes!"
The sentimental women looked at Eri Kisaki, who was being held in Lin Xiuyi's arms, with envy in their eyes, their minds filled with romantic fantasies.
Rational men, on the other hand, felt more jealousy and helplessness.
This is the heart of Mihana City's central area, where management is extremely strict.
Ordinary people would be chased and fined for littering here, let alone creating such a spectacular "rose rain".
They knew that achieving this would not only require a significant investment of manpower and resources, but more importantly, it would sway relationships with various departments within the municipal government.
Otherwise, they would probably be stopped by law enforcement officers on the spot as soon as they started scattering flower petals, and would also face huge fines.
