Chapter 54 Trying To Do Something Good But Ending Up Triggering Her Allergy

In a gloomy mood, Nian Tian arrived at her restaurant and opened the door. She looked around at the restaurant with wide eyes and then at Mu Yuehan. He was grinning at her like a fool with a bunch of flowers in his hand.

Her restaurant was covered with different varieties of flowers with a tag of their meanings attached to them.

Sneeze!

Sneeze!

Sneeze!

Nian Tian covered her nose. She rushed out of the restaurant. She closed her eyes and sneezed multiple times. She started to gasp for breath. Her eyes turned red.

Mu Yuehan ran after her and looked at her with worry-filled eyes. "Nian Tian, why are you sneezing like this? Are you all right?"

Mu Yuehan unconsciously forwarded the flowers in her direction. She started to sneeze harder.

"Idiot, I am allergic to pollen. Take these flowers away." Nian Tian spoke amid a stroke of sneezing.

Mu Yuehan looked at her with wide fearful eyes. He quickly entered the restaurant. He threw the flowers away and returned out with a glass of water in his hand.

His heart squeezed in pain when he saw her sneezing. Her nose turned red and tears were dropping from her eyes. She was gasping for breath.

"Here, have some water. You will feel good after having it."

Nian Tian took the glass of water and finished it in one sip. She started to take long deep breaths.

"Do you want to woo me or kill me?" Nian Tian glared at him in between long breaths.

When Marta arrived, she looked at the scene with wide shock filled eyes. She looked at the restaurant and then at Mu Yuehan with disappointment. When she gave him the keys, she did not think he needed them to decorate the restaurant with flowers. He didn't even share his idea with her, otherwise, she would have stopped him.

"Next time, before wooing any girl, try to know about her." Nian Tian advised and then looked at Marta. "I am going home. Get the restaurant cleaned."

Mu Yuehan looked at Nian Tian with sadness in his eyes.

Last night, he was in shock after the call from his assistant. His assistant spoke badly for Qin Tian. There was complete dislike in his voice.

But when Mu Yuehan thought of the story from the angle of Nian Tian, he realised she equally suffered. She was made a butt of the joke in front of the whole society. She was running away from her real world and was now living here with a changed identity.

He understood the reason for the sadness in her eyes, the reason she was rejecting him. She was afraid he would also leave her like her ex-boyfriend.

But he was not going to do anything like this. His heart liked her and it was ready to accept her good and bad. He would accept her even if she murdered thousands of people.

Being a third party was nothing!

So, early in the morning, as per the suggestion of Mu Jingyan, he decorated the restaurant with flowers. Girls liked flowers but to his bad luck, his girl was allergic to pollen.

The advice of Jingyan was to give her only one bunch of flowers per day, with a different meaning behind the flowers, to show his dedication and true feelings. But he became excited and got the restaurant decorated with all the varieties of flowers he found on Juju island.

"Will she be alright?" Mu Yuehan asked Marta with concern.

"She will sneeze for some time but then she will be alright," Marta replied. "Come and help me clean. I don't think I can clean this flower shop."

"Is she allergic to something else?"

Mu Yuehan felt quite bad. He wanted to win her heart, to give her happiness but he ended up making her sneeze, hurting her.

Marta thought for some time and then replied. "I don't know much but she is allergic to berries. They are very deathly for her."

Mu Yuehan nodded his head and made a mental note about the same. He then helped Marta in cleaning the shop.

Later that evening, Mu Yuehan arrived at the apartment building and knocked on the door of Nian Tian's apartment.

"Who is it?" Nian Tian asked without opening the door.

"It's me, Zhan Wei. I wanted to know if you are all right?" His voice was full of concern.

"I am not dead, at least." Nian Tian replied sarcastically.

"I am sorry. You had to suffer because of me. But I promise I will make up for my mistake by tomorrow." There was determination in his voice.

The next day, Mu Yuehan was again outside the apartment of Nian Tian. He followed her to the restaurant, a look of anticipation was there on his face.

When they arrived, he walked toward the office, as if he owned the restaurant. He returned with a bouquet in his hand, a bouquet of chocolates decorated in the shape of flowers.

"Here for you." Mu Yuehan passed it to Nian Tian. She looked at him with surprise. "If you cannot accept the flowers, so what. You can have chocolates. I have confirmed. These chocolates are of your favourite brand."

She looked at him with emotional eyes, impressed with his thoughtfulness. He was so dedicated. If not flowers then chocolates in the shape of flowers.

Mu Yuehan noticed the small smile forming on her lips but he did not comment on it, afraid she would not accept his gift otherwise.

"Take it, it's yours." Mu Yuehan thrust the bouquet in her hands when he noticed her hesitation. "Now, it's yours. And I must tell you, I don't take my gifts back."

'Good job Mu Yuehan. You have crossed the first hurdle in pursuing her. Look at her eyes.' He mentally praised himself when he noticed the softness in her eyes.

Nian Tian looked at the bouquet of chocolates in her hands. She unconsciously clutched it tight. Her small action was not hidden from Mu Yuehan, making his heart flutter with delight.

"Zhan Wei, I know you like me but please back off." She spoke in a soft voice. She sighed. "I have done something in the past. I am sure you will not like to be with a girl with a past like mine."

"Try me." Mu Yuehan looked at her with dedication. Already aware of her past. "I don't care what your past was, I only care about your present and future. And it will be beautiful with me."

"Zhan Wei…"

Before she could say anything, they were interrupted by the arrival of a customer.

"We will talk later. I should take your leave."
