Chapter 29 Generous Gifts



"Yes, someone as capable as him must have some tricks up his sleeve." Gan Tang countered Mo Huaixing's question, "Why are you helping me?"

"Miss, have you forgotten? I am yours now."

"Yeah?"

Gan Tang looked at him, completely lost, but she was really panicked and wanted to find someone to help her.

"I didn't really do anything with that phone, it's just..."

She mustered her courage to discuss it with him, but Mo Huaixing interrupted her, saying, "What the young lady does is none of my business. I am only responsible for protecting the young lady's safety."

"I'm sorry!" She knew he always protected himself and never let himself get into trouble. It was already very difficult for him to help her just now.

Looking at her increasingly pale face, Mo Huaixing comforted her, "You are his own flesh and blood, he won't do anything to you."

"I'm not worried about myself, I'm worried about my parents." Gan Tang said as she reached for Mo Huaixing's phone.

Mo Huaixing's calm words shattered her hopes: "My phone also has a surveillance camera installed."

All members of the Green Dragon Gang, regardless of rank, have been fitted with surveillance cameras.

Gan Tang couldn't help but cry: "I called my mother, but I couldn't get through. I hung up immediately, but I still dialed the number."

Give me the phone!

"What are you doing?"

Although Gan Tang asked the question, she naturally handed the phone to Mo Huaixing.

Mo Huaixing dialed the number Gan Tang had made again, then shook his head and said, "The phone is disconnected."

"Why did the machine stop? Did something happen to them?" Gan Tang's mind went blank for a moment, and she walked out as she spoke.

Mo Huaixing grabbed her wrist and reminded her, "It's not necessarily going to happen. It's normal for their phones to be controlled; they can't get replacement SIM cards while they're abroad."

"Then what should I do?"

A pair of misty eyes, like a spring emerging from a long-dried-up well, clear and innocent.

Mo Huaixing was stunned. He never expected that the girl who had been so calm and collected on the cruise ship, rescuing him from danger, would be so flustered now.

This is not a difficult problem to solve.

“If something leaves a trace, you can only try to cover it up; you must never hide it from him. Also, go find Fu Shaojie; his words are much more credible than your own.”

Mo Huaixing offered her a solution and reiterated, "Remember, the less you care about them, the safer they are."

Gan Tang looked at the man in front of her in surprise, and was stunned for a long time: "You're willing to help me?"

Mo Huaixing smiled helplessly: "I only ask that you don't implicate me, Miss. If something happens to you, I'll be a stray dog."

"Who said that? You're not a dog." Gan Tang's face suddenly turned red. She hurriedly looked down and found that she was tightly holding the man's hand in front of her.

"Let's eat!" Gan Tang hurriedly moved the table bell aside.

Only then did she realize that this was a romantic restaurant, with the private rooms filled with roses symbolizing love, and even the chairs were swings made of vines. The dim candlelight created an incredibly intimate atmosphere.

The waiter enthusiastically introduced the fancy names of the dishes, such as "love at first sight," "growing old together," and "having a son soon," which made Gan Tang even more embarrassed.

But Mo Huaixing was as taciturn as ever, not saying a word. Gan Tang then ordered the food without really understanding what the waiter was recommending.

The restaurant served the food quickly. After finishing her meal hastily, Gan Tang picked up her bag and went to the front desk to pay the bill.

"Hello ma'am, the total bill is 18,000 yuan."

"What?"

Gan Tang thought she had misheard. Eighteen thousand was equivalent to three months of her salary. She simply couldn't understand: "Two steaks, two tomatoes, and a weed, and it's eighteen thousand?"

The items were indeed worthless, but who among the people who came here would care about their practical value? The waiter couldn't get angry, so he smiled and looked at Mo Huaixing, who had followed behind, "Sir, your girlfriend is so funny!"

She then gestured for him to pay the bill.

Mo Huaixing turned his head and whispered, "Miss, the more money you spend, the better."

"Yeah, it's not my money anyway." Gan Tang readily paid the bill.

The waiter watched the two walk away, shook his head and scoffed, "The more money you spend, the better. Go ahead and spend it. I thought he was a rich young master, but it turns out he's just a gigolo."

The two walked down the escalator, and Mo Huaixing asked, "Are you going back?"

"Um!"

Although it feels good to have money, and even better to spend other people's money, she's not in the mood for it at all right now.

After getting off the elevator, Gan Tang saw a gold and jewelry store, glanced down and noticed that Mo Huaixing's wrist was empty, and went inside.

"I want a watch."

The salesperson led Gan Tang to the watch counter, where gold watches were on display, gleaming in the sunlight.

One of the watches features a deep sea blue dial with diamond hour markers and a diamond-encrusted bezel, making it very dazzling.

Gan Tang pointed and said, "Let me take a look at this one."

"Madam, you have excellent taste. This is a brand new mechanical watch that just arrived from Switzerland; only 10 pieces are available nationwide. The dial is made of natural sapphire, and the mechanical movement is chronometer-certified..."

The shop assistant was still chattering away, when Gan Tang held the item in her hand and asked Mo Huaixing, "Is it pretty?"

Mo Huaixing reminded him, "This is a men's watch."

"I bought this for you," Gan Tang said, putting the gift on his wrist. She felt that since he had helped her so much, she should give him a gift to express her gratitude, especially since it wasn't her money.

Mo Huaixing pressed his wrist, determined not to try.

Gan Tang glared at him with displeasure: "Didn't you tell me to spend more money?"

"That's for you to spend, do you think I'm too old to live?" Mo Huaixing's face was extremely gloomy.

"Don't worry, you'll be fine." Seeing that he was still covering his left hand, Gan Tang slipped the slip onto his right hand and asked again, "Does it look good?"

"It's not good-looking!"

"I think it looks good, so that's fine with me." Gan Tang ignored his dissatisfaction and turned to ask the shop assistant, "How much?"

The shop assistant smiled and said, "1.2 million!"

Gan Tang gasped, "That's it."

After buying the 1.2 million yuan luxury watch, Gan Tang went to the parking lot with satisfaction.

"Young Miss!" The driver got out of the car and opened the door when he saw the young lady return.

Mo Huaixing put the things he bought in the trunk and walked to the back.

Gan Tang leaned out of the car window and called out to him, "Where are you going?"

"I was driving." Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to catch up with her in time.

"No, you have to ride in the same car as me." Gan Tang shook her head, refusing to budge. What young couple wouldn't travel together? If they were going to act, they had to make it convincing. After all, if the driver was following her, he would definitely report their situation to Lu Zhengqian.

Mo Huaixing walked up to the driver, held up the car keys, and said, "Could you please change cars?"

"Why change drivers? Call a designated driver!" Gan Tang moved to the other side and patted the seat next to her.
