Chapter 102 Eri Kisaki's Suitors

"Boss, how many roses did you buy?" Judy covered her mouth and couldn't help but ask.

"A total of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine flowers," Lin Xiuyi said with a gentle smile, her tone tinged with regret.

"I originally wanted to buy 99,999 roses to give Eri a big surprise, but unfortunately, that's already the total amount of red roses that all the flower shops in Teitan Shopping Street have."

"And now? There are so many flowers, our car can't hold them all," Judy sighed, rubbing her forehead in exasperation. "We can't exactly carry all these flowers to see the lady, can we?"

"Don't worry, I was prepared."

Lin Xiu smiled and shook her head. She walked to the French windows in the living room, pointed downstairs, and gestured for people to look down.

Judy peeked out and saw a huge refrigerated truck parked in the parking lot downstairs. The truck doors were tightly closed, indicating that it had been prepared in advance.

"Alright, stop standing there, let's get to work!"

Lin Xiuyi rolled up his suit sleeves and greeted them with great enthusiasm.

"Get all these flowers onto the truck, and hurry up, we have other things to do later."

"Today, I must give Eri a Valentine's Day she'll never forget!"

……

On the other side, downstairs in the high-end office building where Fei Law Firm is located,

The sun had long since set, and the city's neon lights lit up one after another, reflecting a dazzling array of colors onto the glass curtain walls of the office buildings.

Eri Kisaki stood on the steps by the door, carrying an elegant black handbag, her brows slightly furrowed and her face full of anxiety.

She dressed up especially carefully today.

Her fair cheeks were lightly made up, her eyelashes were long and curled, and her lips were painted with a soft mauve lipstick, which added a touch of charm to her already beautiful face.

A moon-white suit skirt accentuated her curvaceous figure, while black stockings encased her long, straight legs. She wore silver high heels, and every step she took exuded the elegance and competence of an elite woman.

Such outstanding looks and temperament naturally attracted the attention of many men passing by, and many people couldn't help but take a second look at her when they passed by.

Eri Kagi didn't care about the stares at all. She kept raising her right hand, looking down at her watch, her brows furrowing even more.

That bastard Shuichi!

I promised to pick her up at seven o'clock, but it's almost seven-thirty now and there's still no sign of her!

Eri cursed inwardly, but forced a calm expression and a polite smile as she greeted her colleagues.

As a well-known elite lawyer in Mihana City, she has extensive connections and is extremely popular in this office building. Colleagues who are leaving get off work often pass by and greet her with smiles.

Today is Valentine's Day, and many people in the office building left work early, eager to reunite with their loved ones.

In the plaza at the entrance, couples holding hands and cuddling together can be seen everywhere.

Some boys held flowers, and some girls carried exquisite gifts. Laughter filled the air, and a sweet atmosphere permeated the air.

As Eri looked at the scene before her, her anger grew even stronger.

Today is her first Valentine's Day since she and Lin Xiuyi reconciled, making it a very special day.

To avoid being disturbed by work, she specially gave Kuriyama Midori a day off in advance, personally tidied everything up in the office, and then waited downstairs with anticipation.

But at this crucial moment, Lin Xiuyi was late! And so late!

Another half hour passed, and the clock gradually struck eight, but Lin Xiuyi still hadn't appeared.

Eri Kisaki's face darkened completely.

She took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and turned to walk towards the parking lot.

Since he wasn't coming to pick her up, she decided to go home by herself and give that unpunctual jerk a good talking-to!

But as soon as she stepped down the office building steps, a large bouquet of vibrant red roses suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking her way.

Eri's eyes lit up instantly, and a surprised smile involuntarily appeared on her face, though her tone still carried her habitual tsundere air:

"Hmph, why are you only arriving now, Xiu..."

Before she could finish speaking, she realized something was wrong.

Although the person in front of her was tall, he was not a familiar figure. When she looked up, she saw a face with brown skin and a small mustache, which was not Lin Xiuyi at all.

Eri's smile froze instantly. She awkwardly composed herself and said apologetically, "Sorry, I mistook you for someone else."

She recognized the man in front of her; his name was Saku Hofumi, also a lawyer specializing in criminal cases. They had worked together several times before, so he was someone she knew well among their colleagues.

Saku Hoshi smiled brightly, completely ignoring her apology, and instead pushed the roses forward again: "Attorney Kisaki, we meet again."

Eri Kisaki did not accept the bouquet of flowers; her attitude was polite but distant.

Saku Norifumi naturally realized that she had mistaken him for someone else, but since he had made a point of waiting here today, he had no intention of backing down easily.

He had been secretly in love with Eri Kisaki for a long time. A little over a week ago, when he heard from Midori Kuriyama that Eri Kisaki had a boyfriend, he not only did not give up, but became even more determined.

He believed that he was no less capable or of better character than the man he had never met.

"Attorney Fei,"

Saku Norifumi's smile grew even gentler. He suddenly knelt on one knee, holding the roses high in front of Eri Kisaki, his eyes filled with deep affection, his voice clear and firm.

"I've liked you for a long time. Please give me a chance. I will take good care of you and make you happy!"

"Attorney Saku, please don't do this."

Fei Yingli chuckled twice, and many people around noticed the commotion and looked over, making her feel somewhat embarrassed.

She lowered her voice, trying to refuse tactfully: "I already have a boyfriend, Kuriyama should have already told you..."

"I know everything Ms. Kuriyama said."

Saku Hoji interrupted her abruptly, his gaze remaining firm and unwavering.

"But I feel that I am more suitable for you than anyone else, and I understand you better. We are both lawyers, with the same profession and pursuits, and we will have more in common with each other."

"So please, you must give me a chance!"

With his tanned skin, sexy mustache, and sunny smile, coupled with his tender confession, Norifumi Saku instantly became the focus of attention at the entrance of the office building.

People passing by stopped and gathered around, pointing and whispering among themselves.

Inside the office building, many of Eri's colleagues who were familiar with her peeked out, and some even started making a fuss.

"Attorney Fei, just say yes!"

"Yes, Attorney Fei, this man is handsome and affectionate, isn't he wonderful!"

"Don't miss such a great opportunity!"
