Chapter 107: Reciprocity

Chu Ci was stunned for a moment. Someone had said the same thing to him before.

She said: "Our little Ci looks really pretty when she smiles, she should smile more often." But Mom is also worried that when she grows up, there will definitely be many boys chasing her. Mom and Dad will be reluctant to let her go.

This is what the kind woman said to her.

The words are still ringing in my ears, but that kind woman is no longer in this world.

Chu Ci has never been good at expressing her emotions since she was a child. She has always been cold and dull, but those two kind people have always used their kindest side to tell her that they love her very much, even though they have no blood relationship.

The smile on Chu Ci's face disappeared.

Chu Han thought he had said something wrong and upset Chu Ci, so he quickly explained, "It's okay. Even if you don't take special care of me during training, I will still bribe you!"

"It's okay, it has nothing to do with you." Chu Ci explained, and at the same time withdrew his thoughts from his memories.

"Oh..." Chu Han felt relieved.

Chu Ci came back to his senses and casually took out a jadeite suitable for men from the drawer and gave it to Chu Han.

"This is for you, as a return gift."

The piece of jade that Chu Ci took out casually was not big in size, and there was a word "Fu" engraved on it.

The whole body is emerald green, the jade has delicate texture and high transparency. Under the influence of his grandfather, Chu Han has some knowledge of jadeite. He knows that the piece Chu Ci took out is of high ice type, and with its bright color, the price must be not cheap.

"No, these are given to you by grandpa, you keep them."

Chu Han had heard from his mother and sister Yu Xin that their grandfather had given Chu Ci a lot of jadeite, so Chu Han thought that the piece Chu Ci took out was given by their grandfather.

Chu Han felt that his grandfather was right to give Chu Ci a lot of precious jade.

Chu Ci suffered so much outside since she was a child, so it is only right that her grandfather compensate her a little. He has enjoyed the favorable conditions provided by his family since he was a child, and he is much happier than Chu Ci.

So Chu Han was not jealous at all about this matter.

"This is mine, not a gift from anyone else." Chu Ci said, "Just accept it if it's given to you. I don't like to take other people's things for free."

Except for the peace locket given to her by Meng Qingyan, the other jadeite in this drawer are raw jadeite stones that Chu Ci bought herself and then had a specialized jade carving master make them into finished products. They are completely her own things.

"You don't have to give me this as a return gift. It's too expensive." Chu Han thought that she had just given Chu Ci a bunch of food. Even if these foods were all imported snacks, they were not as valuable as a piece of high-end jadeite from her.

"Whether it's valuable or not is what matters to me." Chu Ci asked, "Don't you want my things?"

"No, no, I don't have it!" Chu Han quickly took the jade from Chu Han's hand, and then said to Chu Ci with a happy face, "Thank you, I will keep it well!"

This was the first gift Chu Ci gave him.

This also seems to be a big step in improving the relationship between the two of them.

Chu Han was smiling when he went to Chu Ci's room, and he also had a bright smile on his face when he came out.

Meng Yuxin saw Chu Han coming out of Chu Ci's room happily.

His face suddenly turned pale and his eyes dimmed.

What on earth did Chu Ci do to Chu Han these past two days that caused such a big change in Chu Han's attitude towards her?
