Chapter 11.1 - Roses

The sun was shining brightly, and Su Yan got up from the bed.

Actually, she had been awake for a long time but wasn't in the mood to get ready for the day.

Yesterday, before going to sleep, she accidentally saw a video about Xie Yu's escape from marriage on the internet. Su Yan was unable to get proper sleep and was thinking about her misfortune. In the end, she was awakened by the sympathy and pity mixed with criticism from all the guests.

The moment she opened her eyes, she was drenched in sweat, and her breathing was disturbed and rapid, like that of a drowning person who had just been pulled out of the water.

After staring at the ceiling for a long time, she finally hugged the quilt and cried her heart out.

She began to despise Xie Yu so much that she believed she would never forgive him in this life and even wished for Xie Yu to feel her pain and humiliation.

She thought Xie Yu loved her, but she understood that he had not loved her at all. He loves only Jiang Qi.

But what could she do? Compared with the Xie family, her Su family was a small upstart, and it was absolutely impossible to fight against the Xie family. 

It is precisely because he is not afraid of offending me and my parents that he dares to escape marriage recklessly, right?

She could only knock it out of her teeth and swallow it in her stomach because she couldn't ask Xie Yu for an explanation.

This was reality, otherwise, what else could she do?

The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she became. Her tears seemed to burst like a dam, she was shaking all over from crying, and when she went to the bathroom to wash up, her entire eye circles were swollen.

After washing her face with cold water, Su Yan looked at her haggard face in the mirror.

Xie Yu and Jiang Qi are the villains, why should I live like this? Do I need to live under Xie Yu's show for the rest of my life? No, why should I? I'm still young. I can have a new turnover.

Taking a deep breath, Su Yan wiped her face, turned, and left the bathroom.

…………………

Su Yan walked onto the balcony and looked at Swan Lake. The cool air in the morning entered the lungs along the trachea, and the whole person was immediately refreshed.

Su Yan saw the thin aunt who she met yesterday holding a pair of long scissors and standing beside a bush to trim in the garden.

After watching her trim the plants for a while, Su Yan's gaze subconsciously moved to the direction of the big birdcage. She thought for a while, then went downstairs to go to the garden to relax a bit.

It was around 7 in the morning, and the housekeeping aunty was still making breakfast. Su Yan said hello to her and walked out of the villa through the back door.

Bypassing the swimming pool, she walked into the lush garden along the path on the east side, winding all the way down, and finally stopped in front of the "birdcage" covered with green netting.

She was surprised after seeing the size of the cage because it was several times bigger than what she saw from upstairs. She peered through the small, tiny mesh holes and saw that it was different than she thought. 

Driven by curiosity, Su Yan stretched out her hand and opened the green net hanging in front of the door. The next second, she was amazed by the picture that came into view.

Inside the birdcage, there were roses everywhere, blooming brightly.

The roses planted here were not the common red roses on the market, but apricot or pink roses. The flower shape was cup-shaped, and the petals were layered with bright white.

Fresh, elegant, but still bright, like a lady with an outstanding temperament.

This was the most beautiful rose Su Yan had ever seen.

Su Yan stepped forward into the birdcage, looking at the elegant roses, and carefully reached one of the flowers with twinkling eyes. When her hand touched a petal, she was amazed by its softness and silkiness.

She thought that Bai Xingfan's taste was really good. 

After feeling the softness and fragrance of roses, Su Yan, who had never raised any flowers before, wanted to grow flowers. So she took a picture of the rose in front of her, and then searched for the species of this rose on the Internet.

The Internet quickly gave her the answer: Juliet Rose.

It seems like a very romantic name. She thought. 

Then she searched the purchasing channels and prices of Juliet Roses. She was dumbfounded—three million for one plant? The most expensive rose in the world today costs more than 20 million RMB in British pounds, not RMB.

Sure enough, a big family, no wonder he needs a professional gardener to take care of it.

Su Yan's thought of raising flowers was instantly dispelled. At the same time, she was a little envious of the nightingale who used to live here. It was really raised in a luxurious palace full of gold. No one was there to bully or betray it, let alone mock it, because it had a strong master and a solid backer.

She suddenly realised that she was not as good as a bird.

Sighing heavily, Su Yan slowly turned around and kept walking out of the cage. But as soon as she lifted the net of the cage, she was stunned.
