Lin Yitian was displeased when he heard this.

"Isn't your shop's motto to 'say it with flowers'? Why can't you express my feelings then?"

He wanted to tell Jia that they would always be together forever, but now the flower shop told him that they couldn't handle his declaration of love. Lin Yitian wanted to throw a tantrum. However, he recalled that Song Jia was there, so he only looked up the flower shop's online website and left a one star rating.

For Lin Yitian, this was practically a huge restraint of his temper.

Fortunately, he found out that there was an import of two thousand tulips in the country from Holland today. Lin Yitian bought all of them, which was the entire stock of tulips in China for that month.

However, Lin Yitian still wasn't convinced that this would make Song Jia smile. To be completely sure, he also asked Wang Han's opinion. Since his butler had been married for so long, he must have some tips and tricks up his sleeve.

Wang Han, who received a pair of hopeful eyes looking at his direction, "..."

He was greatly afraid that if his advice to the second young master wouldn't make Miss Su smile, he would directly fire him.

"Second young master, why don't you invite Miss Su to a candlelit dinner?"

After thinking hard, Wang Han finally said this. It seemed that Miss Su liked the second young master very much, so she would probably like this kind of romantic gesture. Ever since she came to live in with Lin Yitian, he had never invited her out for a date.

Lin Yitian thought about it, and felt that Wang Han's idea was good. He immediately stood up, looking excited.

"Clean up the back garden, I want my date with Jia to be perfect!"

Also, if this candlelit dinner could make Jia smile, it would also set the mood for his delayed plans...

Because he only had less than a day left to prepare, Lin Yitian gave a regretful glance upstairs before hurrying out of the living room. He had to oversee every small detail. Because of this, he had to be very busy to make sure that this time, he would be able to see Song Jia's smiling expression.

...

While Lin Yitian was busy over there, Song Jia had also kept herself busy. She had jumped out of the second floor window using her anti-gravity boots, and finally evaded the security cameras and guards after a few close calls.

By the time she was riding on a taxi towards the Su's family home, her forehead was somewhat damp with sweat.

"Why did Yitian's security have to be so tight...?"

It almost gave her the illusion of being trapped inside a large bird cage.

Song Jia paid the taxi and went inside to find Su Qi. Since it was a weekday, both of their parents were out, as their father was a university professor while their mother managed a hair salon.

She found Su Qi inside her room, putting on make-up. Song Jia had warned her ahead of time for the switch, and found that Su Qi was already wearing clothes she had gotten from her closet.

"You're putting it wrong, let me do it," Song Jia said as she grabbed the mascara brush from Su Qi.

Su Qi's make up was a bit heavier than Song Jia's, and since Song Jia still used her make up kit from the 23rd century, it couldn't be helped that Su Qi had difficulty in copying her look.

"You're here!" Su Qi exclaimed in happiness. She was very excited to meet Nie Poan.

"I'm telling you now, that man is scum," Song Jia warned. "And you better not ignore Lin Yitian. If you do, I'll take back your place and tell everybody the truth. We'll see if you'll still be able to meet Nie Poan then."

Su Qi pouted. Although she felt that her twin sister had became easy to get along with after she recovered from her illness, there were times when she felt that Su Jia had become a bit intimidating.

"I know, I know, I won't ignore Lin Yitian. I've also memorized all of the things I needed to do in the text you sent me. I still can't believe you've been sleeping inside his bedroom."

Back when Su Qi was Lin Yitian's wife in her past life, she wasn't even allowed to be two meters near his bedroom door. Although Su Qi didn't have any feelings for Lin Yitian, she couldn't help but harbor feelings of jealousy from the astounding difference in treatment.

"But Jia, after Nie Poan falls in love with me, be prepared to switch with me again. I'll tell Nie Poan the truth, and you'll be able to marry into the Lin family. It's a win-win situation, right? We'll just keep our real identities hidden forever."

Song Jia inwardly snorted. She had already showed Nie Poan how much Lin Yitian valued her. Would he still be able to keep his job and the high salary that came with it if he flirted with Su Qi?

Besides, Lin Yitian had already grown suspicious of Nie Poan, and limited his session with him inside the mansion. Even if Su Qi wanted to flirt, it first needed Nie Poan's presence to be there. With the elimination of Nie Poan and how Lin Yitian was usually sweet to her, Song Jia estimated that it wouldn't be long before Su Qi fell in love with him.

Song Jia pursed her lips. She didn't really feel good giving the white cabbage she had painstakingly raised to a blind pig, ah~

Song Jia abruptly stopped her own thoughts.

Wait, she was Su Qi's twin sister. If her twin sister was a blind pig, then wouldn't it mean she was a blind pig too?!

Finally, Song Jia was done with doing Su Qi's make up.

"Don't use dark colors on your face, and don't wear too revealing clothes. You also need to make sure to put vegetables on Lin Yitian's plate, take a walk with him in the garden after a meal, and always smile at him."

While sending her twin sister out of the door, Song Jia couldn't help but nag.

"Meet butler Wang at the backdoor of the mansion, he'll lead you back to the bedroom. Remember, don't be mean to Lin Yitian or I'll..."

"Jia, I know, you've warned me hundreds of times," Su Qi said impatiently. "Always smile, be patient with him, don't avoid him, accept his hugs, and never raise my voice at him. Did I miss anything?"

Song Jia fell silent. She didn't really know why she felt so uneasy.

"No, you didn't miss anything. Text me if something happens, okay?"

"I will." Su Qi finally slammed the taxi door shut, wanting to meet with Nie Poan as soon as possible.

Song Jia watched the taxi slowly disappear from her sight with a dazed expression. She rubbed her arms, not knowing why she felt so cold. After a while, she went back inside the house to pack some of her clothes.

It was time to investigate Lin Shenglan's affair. Song Jia felt that this was the only thing she could do for Lin Yitian. If she exposed that scum's true nature, maybe it would help free Lin Yitian from his shadow, even just for a little bit.
