The Beautiful Time With You

The maid had never seen the Young Master acting so unreasonably before, and with a frightened voice, she replied, “Those flowers were ordered by the Young Mistress earlier in the morning.”

“Are those fresh flowers? Shouldn’t fresh flowers consist of just flowers? Why on earth are there so many green leaves on them? Does that flower shop think that they can dupe their customers just by adding some cheap green leaves with their flowers? Which flower shop do those flowers come from? I’m going to give them a negative review!”

“Later on, I want you to snip off all of the green leaves in that vase and just leave the flowers in there.”

As Lin Jiage spoke, he turned his gaze to the other parts of the house and remarked disdainfully, “Also, what kind of flowers are those? Don’t you think that their green color looks particularly jarring? Throw them away!”

Maid: “Young Master, that won’t do! Those are the plants that the Old Master has raised for quite a few years. You mustn’t throw them away!”

“If they can’t be thrown away, toss them to the underground storeroom then!” At this point, Lin Jiage could care less whether those green plants could survive even without the presence of light. After thinking of a way out for the maid, he turned his attention to a pair of ear studs placed in a box just above the shoe rack and pointed at them as he said, “What are these? Why are they so green?”

As he spoke, Lin Jiage’s hand reached out to grab them.

Fearing that Lin Jiage would toss them out, the maid snatched the ear studs ahead of him and said, “Young Master, you can’t toss these away! These are the emerald ear studs that Madam received as part of her dowry. They’re invaluable antiques from the Qing Dynasty! If you throw them away, Madam will give you an earful!”

“She might as well change my name to Lǜ Jiage ¹ while giving me an earful!” Lin Jiage retorted as he shot a ferocious glare at the maid before leaving the house.

While making his way to the garage, he thought indignantly, ‘Dowry? An invaluable antique from the Qing Dynasty? Hah, who knows whether they’re fake! With that cringy green color, I wouldn’t want them even if someone paid me to accept them!’

…

Liang Jiusi would call Lin Jiage out to play almost every weekend.

But for the last two weeks, Lin Jiage had been too busy playing games with Shi Yao and he would reject Liang Jiusi’s invitations without the slightest hint of hesitation.

So tonight, when Lin Jiage appeared at the location Liang Jiusi had told him about earlier, Liang Jiusi couldn’t help staring at him in amazement, “Brother Jia, you’ve finally decided to shower me with your love!”

Shower your head! Aren’t you insulting my taste?

Lin Jiage shot a glance at Liang Jiusi before walking over to the sofa to take a seat, not bothering to respond to his remark at all.

The compartment that Liang Jiusi had booked was illuminated by a disco ball, so the lighting wasn’t particularly bright. So, it was only after Lin Jiage was standing right in front of Liang Jiusi that the latter finally noticed that he was wearing a green T-shirt. He widened his eyes in shock as he remarked, “Brother Jia, did your sense of aesthetics go through a revolutionary change after two weeks of camping at home?”

This time, Lin Jiage didn’t even bother shooting a glance at Liang Jiusi. He simply picked up a cocktail on the table and brought it to his mouth.

Just as he was about to sip on it, he couldn’t help noticing that the cocktail was a light green color.

Placed on the edge of the wine glass was a green slice of lime, and there was a green peppermint leaf floating on top of the cocktail.

Lin Jiage immediately closed his mouth and dumped the cocktail back onto the table.

“Why aren’t you drinking? This is a cocktail that they just came up with. It’s delicious,” Liang Jiusi said with a perplexed voice.

“You can drink it by yourself!” Lin Jiage spat as he shot a swift glance across the table, and he couldn’t help noticing green wine cups, green grapes, and not to mention, apples…

The apples were clearly just washed because there were still water droplets on them.

Was this the same thing that man saw when Soft Bun washed an apple for him?

Just like that, Lin Jiage suddenly found himself triggered, and he bellowed furiously, “Liang Jiusi, can’t you just get rid of everything that’s green in here?!”
