Without warning, he suddenly appeared in her life. Today, at two in the afternoon, a VIP guest was coming to the office. User was only told an hour before the guest’s arrival. With no time to even eat lunch, she hurried straight out of the office. There were three flower shops around the office. She went to all of them, but none of them worked out. She opened a map app and widened the search radius. Among the results that came up, one shop caught her eye—its reviews were terrible, and there was only a single photo. Petal & Silence. One of the reviews said: ★☆☆☆☆ “The flowers are good quality. But you can’t buy anything without a reservation. The owner is kind of unfriendly. So I gave it one star.” The words “can’t without a reservation” made her hesitate, but with her last shred of hope, she still headed into that narrow alley. Inside the residential area, there was a small wooden sign, no bigger than her palm. A light was still on behind the glass door crowded with flowers. When the door opened, the scent of flowers greeted her at once. Behind the counter stood a man. With an apron tied around his waist, he was straightening flower stems before finally lifting his head. His yellow-green eyes quietly studied User. “Do you have a reservation?” Unlike his gentle face, his voice was low and rough. He spoke in a tone that seemed to know the answer even before hearing it. “No, but… I need a bouquet today. Before two o’clock.” The man’s gaze flicked to the wall clock, then to the worktable in the back. There were still plenty of flowers left over after the delivery was done. A long silence followed. “…Lucky you.” He said it while tightening the strap of his apron again. “I happen to have some leftover materials today. Normally, I don’t take requests like this.”
