Chapter 11 Even a wealthy woman couldn't afford it



"What's wrong?" Bi Qiaoan asked worriedly, looking at Shen Yanming's dark face.

"It's alright, I'll give you more and better gifts in the future," Shen Yanming said to Bi Qiaoan, suppressing his anger.

"No need, the gift isn't important, the thought is what matters most." Bi Qiaoan smiled, having roughly guessed what had happened.

Shen Yanming opened his suitcase and took out his belongings one by one.

"These are two sets of skincare products I bought for you. I heard my female supervisor at the company talk about these two brands, but I didn't know which one was better, so I bought both."

These are some cosmetics I brought for you. They were recommended by the sales assistant when I bought skincare products. Try them out and see if they work for you.

This is the Ancient Music Mystery series of perfumes I brought for you. There are twelve bottles in total. I've smelled the samples, and they're all pretty good. Pick your favorite, and I'll buy you more next time.

I've also picked out a few dresses for you.

This is some red wine I brought for you. I only brought three bottles because there wasn't enough space. Try it, and if you like it, I'll have them mail it to you from over there.

"Yes, and there's another bag; the sales assistant said it's a limited edition."

Bi Qiaoan was shocked when everything inside the box was taken out.

"Brother Yanming, how come there are so many? This is too much. I only need one."

"Not much, there's more!" He said, opening another suitcase and taking out half a suitcase of his own clothes, which was filled with small gift boxes.

"These are all pieces of jewelry I brought for you. Take a look and see if you like them."

Bi Qiaoan squatted down and opened the small boxes one by one, placing them on the bed.

Oh my god, my heart is about to jump out of my chest.

There are necklaces, bracelets, rings, hair clips; some are diamond-encrusted, some are gold, some are pearl-encrusted, and some are jade...

Bi Qiaoan stared blankly at Shen Yanming, "Brother, are you out of your mind? Why did you buy so much jewelry?"

"Do you like it? I was thinking of buying some more, but I was afraid you wouldn't like it. I'll take you to choose next time."

Bi Qiaoan quickly shook her head, "No, no, it's too expensive. I couldn't afford to pay it back even if I sold myself."

Speaking of which, Bi Qiaoan is quite wealthy. She had a happy childhood and lived in the Zijing Villa District with Shen Yanming. The two families were neighbors and had a good relationship.

Later, when Shen Yanming was 20 years old, his father suddenly died of a heart attack while on a business trip in Beijing. Shen's mother, also known as Aunt Su, couldn't bear the blow and wanted to sell the shares of the Shen Group.

Shen Yanming was intelligent from a young age. He skipped several grades during his studies and graduated from university at the age of 20. He originally planned to study abroad for a master's degree, but after his father passed away, Shen Yanming decided to join the Shen Group to protect his father's hard work.

Shen Yanming has never liked strangers coming to his home since he was a child, so the Shen family has never hired a nanny over the years. At most, they would hire an aunt to clean the house every now and then when Shen Yanming was not at home.

Shen Yanming is very busy with work and often travels for business. He was worried about his mother being alone at home, so Bi's mother suggested that Shen's mother come to live with them. However, Shen's mother felt that it was inconvenient to live in someone else's house.

Finally, after discussing it, the two families decided to buy two apartments in the newly developed Qingyu residential area and remain neighbors.

Both families were used to living in large houses, so they directly chose a 240-square-meter apartment. During the day, Mrs. Shen could go to the Bi family's house for meals, and when she came home in the evening, it was just a matter of going out and coming back in. If she needed anything, she could just call out, which was only a wall away.

The two families lived together for four years. Shen Yanming went to Europe for business expansion. In the same year, under the subtle influence of Shen Yanming, Bi Qiaoan was admitted to Qinghai University at the age of 16. Bi's parents were overjoyed and decided to take Bi Qiaoan and Shen's mother on a trip abroad.

Since Mrs. Shen hadn't seen her son for several months, Mr. Bi decided that the family should just go to Europe. So, the four of them spent more than half a month traveling around Europe.

Shen Yanming only accompanied the tour on the first and last days; the rest of the time he was extremely busy and rarely seen.

With work still in China, Bi's parents had already bought return tickets. Seeing that Chen's mother was reluctant to leave, Bi's father offered to let Bi Qiaoan stay with Chen's mother in Europe for a while longer, until they could return before the start of the new semester.

Unexpected events can happen at any time. Despite being the mode of transportation with the lowest accident rate, tragically, the plane carrying Mr. and Mrs. Bi crashed.

Bi Qiaoan fainted from crying after hearing the news. The 16-year-old girl lost both her parents and became an orphan all by herself.

Ms. Shen felt extremely guilty, constantly saying that she blamed herself. If she hadn't missed her son, Mr. and Mrs. Bi wouldn't have come to Europe, and the two of them wouldn't have had this accident.

Bi Qiaoan didn't blame Shen's mother, because no one could have predicted such an accident. Seeing that Shen's mother shed more tears than she did every day, Bi Qiaoan was also very sad.

Shen Yanming took leave to send Bi Qiaoan and Shen's mother back to China and helped Bi Qiaoan with the funeral arrangements for Bi's parents.

With Bi Qiaoan's consent, her father's small company was sold, along with the villa in the Zijing Villa District and her parents' car, totaling over 50 million yuan, which was deposited in Bi Qiaoan's name.

With this money, even if Bi Qiaoan does nothing in the future, she can live a comfortable life.

Shen Yanming stayed with Bi Qiaoan the whole time. Seeing the little girl who had followed him around since she was a child getting thinner and thinner every day, he felt extremely sorry for her. So he told Bi Qiaoan that he had decided to go back to China and stay with her.

Bi Qiaoan cried, saying she couldn't be a burden to him. She said she was almost an adult and could take care of herself. Besides, she would be living in a dormitory in college and would have roommates to keep her company. She would gradually get through it.

After hearing this, Shen Yanming hugged Bi Qiaoan, but he had already made a plan in his heart. He would give her four more years, and he would come back after four years so that he could be with Bi Qiaoan.
