Chapter 667 Gift Exchange
"You, not this year!" Shen Ci said, looking at his brother.
But Shen Xing didn't believe it at all: "Don't lie to me, sister, you must have prepared it for me."
In his heart, his sister will definitely not show favoritism. Although he has everything he needs now, his sister will definitely prepare a New Year gift for him.
Shen Ci couldn't help laughing. She wanted to tease her brother, but it was obvious that her brother knew her better.
She took out an envelope from her bag and said mysteriously, "You already have a car and a computer. It's too early to buy a house. In fact, you don't need anything. But I thought you would like this."
I handed the envelope to my brother, and he couldn't wait to open it.
Taking the contents out and taking a look, Shen Xing's eyes widened instantly: "This, this is a ticket to the League of Gods World Finals?"
After seeing the gold-plated words clearly, he shouted, "VIP first row!"
“Hmm.” Shen Ci raised his eyebrows, a smug look on his face.
Because these tickets are really hard to get, it is hard to get one, even harder to buy than the Hermès that is out of stock in China. Even she had to work very hard to get two tickets.
Shen Xing excitedly hugged her sister and said, "Sister, you're amazing! These tickets sold out instantly. I saw so many people online bidding exorbitant prices and still couldn't get tickets! And you're still giving me two VIP tickets!"
"I only got two, so it depends on who you want to invite. And I promise I'll cover your round-trip first-class airfare and hotel expenses. You can take advantage of this opportunity to invite a friend to travel around Europe during winter break."
Chen Ci had very simple thoughts when preparing this gift. One of them was to cater to his preferences, and the other was that since his brother had everything he needed, he just needed to enjoy himself!
"Thank you, sister. I love this gift very much." Shen Xing hugged the ticket like a baby.
Chen Ci looked at his brothers and sisters and smiled, then clapped his hands: "Okay, the gifts are distributed, let's go downstairs!"
"Eh? Second sister didn't get any?" Shen Xing subconsciously looked at Chen Li. He had given gifts to each of his sisters in person, except for his second sister.
He Sui and Guangrong also looked at Ali, but didn't say anything, thinking that their sister would not forget Ali.
As expected, Ah Li herself explained: "My sister gave me my gift yesterday, and I put it away."
"What is it?" He Sui asked curiously.
Shen Li pursed her lips and shook her head: “Keep it a secret, I won’t tell you.”
"Hey, A Li, tell me, you've seen everything we've done." He Sui pleaded, looking at Chen Ci and asking, "Sister, what did you give A Li?"
Shen Ci only said: "It's just a set of jewelry."
This "only" is meaningful, because what Chen Ci gave was not some ordinary jewelry, but the "earrings", "rings" and "bracelets" that Ah Li wore on the red carpet.
The full set of jewelry also included a most valuable necklace, which Shen Ci kept for herself, but even so, the value of those pieces of jewelry was several times more expensive than the total of the gifts from the other people.
Moreover, this gift means a lot to Chen Li, and she likes it very much.
"Sister, we actually have prepared a gift for you too!" At this time, Xingxing suddenly spoke.
Shen Ci was stunned when she heard this, then smiled at her brothers and sisters and asked, "Me too?"
He Sui nodded sheepishly. "Originally, we wanted to prepare one for each of us, but if that were the case, it seems that apart from A-Li, none of us would be able to give you anything decent, so in the end we decided to pool our money and give you one together."
"I'll get it!" Chen Li said, turned around and ran to her room.
The few of them acted quite mysteriously, which made Shen Ci look forward to it.
Not long after, Chen Li returned with an exquisite box in her hand: "Sister, we know you don't need anything, but this gift is a token of our appreciation. We hope you like it."
Shen Ci took it and slowly opened the lid, and found a pair of beautiful red-soled high heels in the box.
"Sister, I secretly checked your shoe cabinet, and you don't have any red-soled high heels."
Chen Ci was very surprised because her younger brother and sister really put a lot of thought into this gift.
The shoes are from the brand "Christian Louboutin", which is the most expensive high-heeled shoe brand in the world. Its founder once said a fashion motto: "A woman must have a pair of red-soled high heels of her own in her life."
Her brothers and sisters all looked at her expectantly. Shen Ci touched the shoe body that was full of texture, and then nodded slightly: "It looks really good, I like it."
Hearing what their sister said, they all smiled at the same time. As long as their sister liked it, then their homework was not in vain and their money was not wasted!
Chen Ci was really happy. She could get a response while giving. This was the happiest thing in the world.
The New Year's Eve dinner was booked at Shuiyunjian, and around noon the whole family went out.
Unlike other places that close on New Year's Eve, Shuiyunjian is packed with people today, with private luxury cars constantly driving in. The restaurants on several floors have all been turned into New Year's Eve banquets today, and they were fully booked two months ago.
In Longcheng, there is never a shortage of rich people.
Although it was not their first time here, Shen Yingying and her family were still shocked by the luxury here. When they thought that all this belonged to Aci, they felt like they were dreaming.
As a result, from the moment they entered the door, people kept coming over to say hello when they saw Shen Ci.
"Ms. Shen, long time no see!"
"Ms. Shen, Happy New Year."
"Ms. Shen..."
Chen Ci had long been adept at dealing with this kind of situation. She would ask the manager to send a bottle of wine to anyone whose name she could remember. Upper-class people had to be respectful, and she herself couldn't guarantee when she would need the other person in the future, so she still had to maintain the relationship that needed to be maintained.
However, family members rarely see Aci's abilities and connections so directly. Look at these bosses who come to say hello. Each of them is much older than her, but their attitude is respectful, which shows how powerful Aci is.
The reserved private room is also the best in the Chinese restaurant, with a floor-to-ceiling window offering a 180-degree view of the entire city. Overlooking the silvery white of Longcheng in winter, it is breathtakingly beautiful. He Sui excitedly pulled Chen Ci and A Li to the window to take pictures.
The waiter asked gently and respectfully, "Miss Shen, shall we start serving the dishes now?"
Shen Ci nodded.
Soon, the door of the box opened and the waiters came in lined up with dishes. They first served eight cold dishes, then twelve hot dishes, plus a soup and a dessert, a total of twenty-two dishes.
Each dish was exquisitely presented, and the aroma was even more enticing. Shen Yingying sighed, "Sure enough, you still have to know how to enjoy it. Who would have known before that you could make reservations for New Year's Eve banquets?"
