Chapter 475: Four hundred seventy-five A mysterious man_1

"Boss, please give me one bunch of each kind of flower," the boy said to Gu Chen.

He spoke with great determination, his tone resolute.

Gu Chen thought he had heard wrong when he heard this.

After all, there were ten different kinds of flowers here, which meant he was talking about five hundred and eighty yuan in total.

"Are you sure?" Gu Chen asked him.

"Yes! Exactly, I want to buy them and commemorate the occasion well," the boy firmly replied.

The girl, upon hearing this, was a bit scared, "Why are you buying so many? Didn’t we agree to just come and have a casual look?"

That amount of money wasn’t a small sum, and it would naturally hurt to spend it.

"It doesn’t matter, I want to keep a memory," the boy said.

Then Gu Chen got to work without further chatter, packing up ten bundles of flowers, and he was quite observant.

He didn’t give the flowers to the boy but handed them directly to the girl.

The girl, holding the bunches of flowers, truly looked as if she was cradling a whole garden.

The fragrance of ten different kinds of flowers wafted to her face, making her feel almost lost for a moment.

"Boss, the flowers here are really, really fragrant," she couldn’t help but praise Gu Chen’s flowers.

Gu Chen laughed heartily when he heard this but didn’t say anything else.

The boy paid five hundred and eighty yuan and then left happily with the girl.

Gu Chen hadn’t expected this repeat customer to return so soon.

And to make such a grand gesture, buying ten bunches outright.

He had sold twelve bunches of flowers in total today, adding up to six hundred and ninety-six yuan.

Though this was a good amount of money, whether it was Qiwei Vegetarian or the coffee shop, Gu Chen’s daily income was more than a few thousand yuan.

So these few hundred yuan seemed very, very little in comparison.

Gu Chen didn’t know what to say, but thought to himself that every little bit extra he could earn was a bonus.

He wasn’t disdainful of the lesser amount because doing business was tough; earning so much was already not easy.

At that moment, Gu Chen felt quite calm.

He was ready to close up shop and go home, to cook for his wife and children.

But just at that moment, someone else came from outside.

The young man was wearing sunglasses and a hat, looking very mysterious.

If one didn’t know better, one could assume a big star had arrived.

"Hello," Gu Chen had to stop what he was doing and greeted him very kindly.

"Hello, may I look at your flowers?" the young man asked Gu Chen softly.

When Gu Chen heard this voice, he instantly found it familiar but couldn’t quite place who it could be.

So, he didn’t speak, merely nodding his head.

"Of course you can."

Then the young man walked around the store like that.

He quickly approached a bunch of flowers, slowly squatting down to pick them up.

He gently took a sniff and immediately a sense of satisfaction appeared on his face.

"Boss, your flowers smell so good," the young man also didn’t skimp on his praise.

"Everyone says that, I suppose it’s because people know how to appreciate flowers," Gu Chen replied catering his words to the listener.

After he spoke, the young man seemed very pleased.

"I didn’t expect to find such a flower shop here in the mainland; it’s truly a surprise."

"Boss, how do you sell these flowers?"

The young man asked Gu Chen like this.

"My flowers are a bit pricey, fifty-eight yuan per bunch," Gu Chen said.

The young man shook his head after hearing this, "It may be a bit expensive, but it really is good quality."

Gu Chen just watched him, and from his accent, Gu Chen could tell that he was definitely not a local from Chuan City.

Plus, he used the term ’mainland,’ indicating that he must be from out of town.

Who would refer to here as the mainland? The answer to that question was self-evident.

"I’ll take a bunch," he said to Gu Chen.

He picked up a bunch of lilies, savoring the fragrance of the lilies.

Then, he took out fifty-eight yuan from his pocket and handed it to Gu Chen.

After taking the money, Gu Chen smiled and said, "You’re really mysterious, you’re the only customer in my flower shop who wears a hat."

"It’s inconvenient when I’m out," the young man replied.

"I really like your work," Gu Chen ventured at that moment.

The young man was taken aback, then chuckled without a word and left the shop.

Gu Chen just wanted to test it out; seeing his reaction, though, she knew she hadn’t guessed wrong.

It really was the rather famous Guo Rong, whose real name should be Zhang Guorong.

His portrayal of Yu Ji was etched in people’s hearts, unforgettable, and acknowledged as the definitive Yu Ji by everyone.

Gu Chen felt that his figure was too familiar, as if he was someone she had seen somewhere before.

This casual little test had surprisingly confirmed her guess.

Gu Chen didn’t make a fuss or disturb him, just casually complimented him.

For him, such praise might have been heard countless times.

But performing well is performing well, unlike those disappointing shows that would come out years later.

He was the last customer of the day; afterward, Gu Chen closed up the shop.

After shutting the store door, Gu Chen went home.

First, Gu Chen picked up Tangtang, then started cooking at home.

By the time all the dishes were ready, it was already eight in the evening.

By then, Tangtang had finished her homework and was sitting there waiting for dinner.

"Daddy, why isn’t mommy back yet?" Tangtang asked Gu Chen curiously.

Gu Chen also found it strange, as Ji Pianran normally would have been back by this time.

But today, she hadn’t returned yet.

"Not sure, shall we wait for mommy a bit?" Gu Chen said to Tangtang.

"Yes, yes, let’s wait for mommy a bit," Tangtang nodded.

The father and daughter waited for nearly half an hour like this.

But even after half an hour had passed, Ji Pianran still hadn’t appeared.

Tangtang looked listless while waiting there.

"Tangtang, you eat first," Gu Chen said to her.

"No, the teacher said we must wait until the whole family is together before we can start eating; also, elders should be served first," Tangtang said earnestly, explaining the etiquette she learned.

Upon hearing this, Gu Chen smiled gently, "We don’t have to wait today, daddy will take the food to mommy later. Mommy might be busy with work and forgot to eat.

Tangtang, start eating on behalf of mommy."

Gu Chen coaxed Tangtang.

After hesitating for a moment, perhaps because she was really too hungry, Tangtang finally relented.

"Alright, alright, then Tangtang will eat on behalf of mommy," she said.

Tangtang picked up her chopsticks and eagerly began to fill her little mouth with food. After she finished eating, Gu Chen took a lunch box and started packing up the dishes.
