Chapter 366
There’s a gift for you?
“A gift?” Xanthea was curious, “What is it? It’s so formal, you even have to cover my eyes?”
“You’ll find out soon.
The trolley came to a halt, the gentle breeze caressed the wind chimes on the flower basket, producing a clear and pleasant sound. Onon led her by the hand, carefully guiding her down from the trolley, “Take it slow”
Xanthea tilted her head up, asking him in bewilderment, “Are we there yet?”
“Wimost.”
“Still ahead, huh?”
He guided her, step by step. But the further they went, the more she felt something was off, the crunching beneath her feet sounded like dry twigs being stepped on,
The woods?
Orion had indeed led her into the woods. What was he up to?!
She abruptly halted
Onon: “What’s wrong?”
“Orion, you’re a pervert!”
She hadn’t even tried the basics, and he was already seeking thrills!
Heaning “pervert” Orion paused for a moment, then slowly smiled, “Xannie, what are you expecting?”
“I wasn’t expecting anything!”
“I will satisfy you”
“What nonsense are you talking about? I’m a proper young lady from a prestigious family, I would never.”
Before she could finish, Orion removed the tie on her eyes, restoring her sight. An expanse of blooming irises flooded her view
A gentle breeze wafted through, brushing across the myriad of vibrant, beautiful petals of the irises. Red, orange, white, blue, purple, black, blue–violet, the hues dazzled her, creating a scene of unparalleled beauty, like a resplendent painting. Standing there felt like stepping into a fairyland.
Xanthea was stunned.
She hesitantly reached out, doubting her eyes, and touched the delicate petals, Dewdrops rolled off, cool against her hand, making her retract it as if electrified.
It’s real, it’s really real!
She ran towards the mountain, inhaling the faintly sweet fragrance at the base, kissing the pure white irises at the mountainside, and embracing the colorful petals at the summit. Her face blossomed with joy as she cheered and leaped.
“Inses, it’s inses, a whole mountain of them!”
“Fragrant, beautiful, it feels like a dream.”
The girl’s long hair fluttered as she danced among the flowers, her laughter mingling with her radiant beauty, making her the most dazzling bloom in the field. Orion watched, mesmerized.
Xannie, the inses were blooming, and you were here.
I’ve waited for over ten years, and, you’ve arrived.
Xanthea, exhausted and shouted out, stood amidst the sea of flowers, watching the man approach her tears welling in her eyes.
She had once wished that if a man planted a mountain of irises for her, she would marry him when they bloomed.
This wish, so fantastical it seemed like plucking stars from the sky, had been actually fulfilled by him.
Orion picked a red iris and slowly walked to her, “Xannie, this symbolizes ‘eternal love!
For the rest of my life, I’ll protect you
Xanthea tears brimming, looked up. “Orion, it’s not the season for Irises. How did you manage to plant a whole mountain of them?”
“There’s a hot spring behind the mountain.”
A hot spring?
300
No wonder she didn’t feel cold even at the summit
“Did you choose this spot on purpose?”
“Yes.”
“And the wind? Won’t it blow the flowers away?”
Orion fell silent, and Xanthéa suddenly remembered what Cedric had said earlier in the car.
CEO didn’t bring flowers because he had spent the entire day picking them.
She quickly took his hand and saw numerous fresh, tiny cuts, and tears fell instantly, “Orion.”
“Did you put protective covers on each flower and spend the whole day picking them? How could you be so silly?”
“I said I wanted a mountain of inses just as a joke.
Her tears fell onto her palm, and Orion pulled her into an embrace, “It’s worth it for your it’s worth it.”
“You fool.”
She lightly pounded on his chest, her eyes blurry with tears as she tiptoed to kiss him.
He said he forgot to bring her flowers, yet he gave her a whole mountain of them.
This man always silently did everything for her.
Orion cupped her face, kissing her back passionately as if to absorb her very soul. Their figures melded into one in the sea of flowers.
It took a while for Xanthea to gently push him away, her whole body tingling, her cheeks flushed. She leaned close to his ear and whispered shyly, “Orion, we can’t kiss anymore, Hello Kitty is already.”
Hello Kitty?
Onion’s mind suddenly flashed back to that wet pair of underwear that had flown onto his balcony.
“My little temptress, you asked for this.”
His dark eyes flared with intense heat as long–suppressed desires broke free. He picked her up and headed towards the villa.
