Su Xiaoxiao waited in the car for more than 20 minutes but Shan Jinxi did not come out. She thought he had a stomach problem and was having an upset stomach in the bathroom, and her worry became obvious.
As she hesitated whether to call him, she finally saw him come out of the mall, and her anxiety subsided.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Shan Jinxi had hidden the necklace in his suit jacket pocket beforehand, and after getting into the car, he quickly apologized to Su Xiaoxiao.
"I just bought this at the convenience store near the entrance. I asked the clerk to heat it up for me. Drink it while it's hot."
After he got into the car, Su Xiaoxiao immediately took a can of hot drink out of her bundled-up coat and gave it to him.
When Shan Jinxi saw the words 'ginger tea' on the beverage can, the corner of her mouth twitched involuntarily a few times.
So she thought he had diarrhea in the bathroom!
"You should drink it while it's hot. If your stomach is still upset, I'll drive."
Seeing that he didn't move, Su Xiaoxiao seemed to be thinking of getting off the bus and switching seats with her.
Shan Jinxi quickly grabbed her, shook his head at her, and said, "I'm just a little uncomfortable."
After saying that, he quickly opened the can and forced himself to drink all the ginger tea he hated the most.
Dan Jinxi immediately blamed Nangong Yi for this. If Nangong Yi hadn't asked him to stall for time, Su Xiaoxiao wouldn't have misunderstood, and he wouldn't have had to drink such awful stuff.
Just as he was about to get out of the car to throw away the can, he saw two idiots walking out of the mall with ugly expressions. He then threw it into the trash can in a parabolic motion.
Luo Yutong and Bai Qingxue didn't notice when they came out, but when they suddenly heard a 'bang' sound, they both screamed.
When they finally saw the real culprit, Shan Jinxi drove off.
Su Xiaoxiao knew he was doing it on purpose, but she pretended not to see anything and didn't ask anything.
...
On his way home, whether it was because Shan Jinxi really didn't recognize Nangong Yi's house, or because he hadn't been back for too long, he would drive in the opposite direction even when he should have turned left.
Moreover, every time Su Xiaoxiao reminded him to turn this way, he would inexplicably overshoot the mark.
Su Xiaoxiao really wanted to ask him if he couldn't tell left from right, but every time he made a mistake, he would immediately apologize to her, which made it impossible for her to get angry.
What should have been a ten-minute drive home took him more than an hour.
Su Xiaoxiao was truly at a loss for words, and she secretly vowed in her heart: she would never ride in Shan Jinxi's car again, even if it was on the way.
Su Xiaoxiao arrived home safely at almost seven o'clock. As soon as Shan Jinxi entered the house, Dong Jinyang invited her to Nangong Yi's study to discuss matters. She took this opportunity to go upstairs to change her clothes.
"Young Madam, the young master said that there will be guests staying for dinner today, and he asked you to change into these clothes."
As Su Xiaoxiao was about to go upstairs, Lin Qiaoyun immediately handed her the gift box that Nangong Yi had asked for.
Su Xiaoxiao was slightly taken aback. Could it be that the guest who stayed for dinner was Shan Jinxi?
She walked into the bedroom carrying the gift box, and was stunned again when she saw a beautiful light pink evening gown inside.
"Is it really necessary to dress so formally just for a meal?"
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless at Nangong Yi's behavior when she saw the dress. Her jealousy had reached a new level that no one else had ever experienced.
But Jin Xi clearly doesn't even know who she is, so why is she showing off her affection in front of him...?
