Chi Tingxi is the boss of Wanning Street. She has a sworn brother and thinks they're close enough to eat and live together.
One day, her sworn brother Xiao Yuzhi turns red and asks her timidly,
"Boss Xi, how do you think I should pursue the girl I like?"
Chi Tingxi laughs heartily and slings an arm around the young man's shoulders. "Easy, brother! Do it like a refined gentleman: send flowers and write letters."
After that, a different flower appeared on her table every day.
After that, she would go ten-odd days without seeing him, only for a pigeon to bring her another refined letter.
"Miss Xiaoxi, it's been days since we last met, and I miss you dearly..."
Chi Tingxi scratches her head and tosses them all aside.
She's a rough-and-tumble sort. Who would bother with all this flowery stuff nowadays, let alone call her "Miss Xiaoxi"?
Then one day, the young man she hadn't seen in a long time appeared by her window. He forced a smile, like peach blossoms by a spring river after the flowers had fallen.
"Why don't you ever reply to my letters?"
Chi Tingxi's heart pounds. Only then does she realize what the kid means.
"Why the long face? This is the method you taught me. You can't say you don't like it."
Chi Tingxi fumbles to shut the window, but he blocks it with one big hand and leans toward her face along with the sunlight.
"All right, then. Tell me, how should I pursue you?"
Xiao Yuzhi lowers his eyes, looking utterly aggrieved. "Miss Xiaoxi, at least give me a chance."
