Generally, gladioli represent strength of character, faithfulness, moral integrity, and remembrance. Gladioli are actually the traditional 40th-anniversary flower and the birth flower for the month of August! Each individual colour of gladiolus is also symbolic.

Book Summary:

You Huo is summoned to join the Global Examination, and no isn't an acceptable answer. The missions were dangerous and seems impossible to solve. Moreover, the examiner Qin Jiu seems to have mysterious goals. (My Summary)

Book Recommendation:

Global Examination is an infinite flow novel, in which the characters are usually summoned to fulfill different missions for survival. I try to keep my recommendation spoiler free because the mysteries are part of the strength.

The actionis intense, and the mysteries are well foreshadowed, so it's really worth re-reading to pick up things you may have missed at the beginning. The main couple is very in love, and the other characters are vividly written.

Both Qin Jiu and You Huo stick to their principle even when it's really tempting to abandon morality. Some people are evil, but there are also people who validate hope and faith in humanity (and have their hopeful endings). The symbolism of the flower rings very true for the novel.
