Chapter 796: Try giving her a bouquet of flowers?
Lu Ziche listened to everyone's persuasion, feeling both moved and helpless.
He sighed slightly, knowing that if he didn't reveal something today, he might not be able to pass this test.
He hesitated for a moment, but still mustered up the courage to speak: "Grandpa, don't say anything, I have actually taken the initiative."
"When I sent Zhiyan back just now, I already expressed my feelings to her, but she hasn't agreed to me yet."
There was a hint of loss in his voice that was hard to conceal, and his eyes dimmed.
Lu Zhilin was slightly stunned after hearing this, then he cleared his throat and straightened his back: "Stinky boy, this is nothing."
"When I was young, I pursued your grandmother. I was very decisive. I expressed my feelings directly when I liked her. I was not as shy as you."
As Lu Zhilin spoke, he recalled the good times he had spent with Du Ruoyun, and a happy smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
Lu Ziche raised his eyes to look at Lu Zhilin, and said with a bitter face: "Grandpa, can this be the same? Zhiyan wants to think about it again, and I don't want to push her too hard, for fear that she will feel pressured."
There was deep helplessness and worry in his voice.
He knew that love matters could not be rushed, especially when facing Yu Zhiyan who had been hurt in love before.
"Che'er, grandma is very pleased that you care so much about Zhiyan." When Du Ruoyun heard what Lu Ziche said, she couldn't help but feel a little more admiration for him.
"However," Du Ruoyun patted his shoulder, "Che'er, this girl said she wants to consider it, which means you still have a chance."
"It also means that she just likes you, but she is not sure about your sincerity and honesty towards her, so she is nervous about the relationship."
"So, next you have to let her see your sincerity and real intentions. You have to move her with your actions and please her. You have to work harder and let her see your good qualities."
Du Ruoyun's voice was soft and soothing, like a gurgling stream, flowing into Lu Ziche's heart.
This gradually calmed his somewhat panicked heart, and a spark of hope rekindled in his eyes.
"Then what should I do? How can I please her?" Lu Ziche muttered to himself with a worried look on his face.
Su Chenyin pondered for a moment and suggested, "Cousin, in my opinion, you might as well try to give Zhiyan some small gifts first. Girls like these."
"Cousin, I'm afraid this will be too abrupt and will disgust her." Lu Ziche shook his head, a hint of worry in his eyes.
He rubbed his hands unconsciously, feeling conflicted.
He wanted to express his feelings by giving gifts, but he was afraid that it would backfire and make Yu Zhiyan have a bad impression of him.
Lu Yanchen frowned and interrupted, "How can it be so abrupt? Ah Che, you gave me a gift to show your feelings, Zhiyan will definitely feel it."
There was a hint of urgency and certainty in his voice.
Her eyes were full of encouragement and support for Lu Ziche, trying to dispel his concerns and make him take this step bravely.
Jun Yijue nodded slightly, indicating his agreement: "I think what Yinyin said makes sense. You can give some unique small gifts. They don't have to be too expensive. The key is to show your thoughtfulness."
After getting Jun Yijue's approval, Su Chenyin became more and more excited as if he was injected with a powerful force.
She continued to give advice happily: "Cousin, since you like Zhiyan, you should go after her boldly! You can ask Zhiyan out more often."
"This will not only allow your relationship to grow stronger, but also help you get to know each other better."
Lu Ziche sighed, a bitter smile appeared on his face: "I want to, but I'm afraid she will refuse."
Du Ruoyun stared at Lu Ziche's slightly hesitant and indecisive look, feeling a little reluctant.
She opened her red lips slightly and advised in a gentle tone: "Che'er, how do you know if you don't try? Even if you are rejected, it is better than waiting here."
She hoped that Lu Ziche could muster up the courage to pursue his own happiness and not leave any regrets and pity in his life.
"That's right. A real man cannot be without this little courage." Lu Zhilin also nodded in agreement and encouraged loudly.
Lu Ziche listened to what everyone said and gritted his teeth in his heart, as if he had made up his mind.
He raised his head, his eyes revealing a hint of determination: "Okay, I'll listen to you and try harder."
Seeing that he had finally mustered up the courage, Su Chenyin cheered, "That's right, cousin. I believe you can succeed."
"That's right, it's always right to be brave." Everyone nodded, encouraging Lu Ziche.
Lu Ziche frowned slightly, his face showing deep thought, and he asked as if muttering to himself: "It's just... what kind of gifts should I prepare for Zhiyan now?"
For a moment, the scene fell into a brief silence again.
Everyone began to rack their brains, trying to help Lu Ziche come up with a perfect idea.
Lu Ziche held his chin with both hands, looking thoughtful, and began to think seriously.
It seemed as if countless thoughts were flashing through his mind. He constantly weighed the possibilities of various gifts, trying to find a gift that could impress Yu Zhiyan.
Su Yi frowned and thought for a while, then said uncertainly:
"Generally speaking, girls like flowers, but I don't know if Zhiyan likes flowers as well? How about you give her a bouquet of flowers?"
As he spoke, he recalled the time when he accidentally made Junior Sister Ji angry.
At that time, he racked his brains and tried to coax her for a long time but to no avail.
In the end, it was only after he bought a bunch of Junior Sister Ji's favorite orchids that he finally won the beauty's smile and Junior Sister Ji forgave him.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his face.
After hearing this, Su Chenyin immediately shook her head and retorted: "Send flowers? That won't work. Flowers are nice, but they are too ordinary. I don't think they show sincerity."
She pondered for a few seconds and suggested, "Cousin, why don't you give her a small item you made yourself, such as a wood carving or a painting. This will better show your sincerity to her!"
Lu Ziche's eyes lit up after hearing this, but dimmed again in an instant: "My cooking skills are not that good. If it doesn't look good, wouldn't that be counterproductive?"
There was a look of embarrassment on his face, and a hint of worry and lack of confidence in his eyes.
He touched his head unconsciously with both hands. He had no confidence in his craftsmanship and was afraid that the gift he made by himself would disappoint Yu Zhiyan.
Lu Zhilin spoke to comfort her, "Che'er, don't be so self-deprecating! You should have some confidence in yourself."
"How about this, you go and find out what kind of jewelry Zhiyan likes, and then pick out an exquisite piece according to her preferences and give it to her. That's also a good idea."
