Chapter 241 Buying Gifts



*

Si Yuelin stared with great interest at Ye Qi's two small side buns, each with a pink bow attached.

He chuckled softly, "It looks great."

"Of course, she looks good even normally—"

"Well then, little princess, shall we hurry and get in the car today?"

Si Yuelin opened the car door for her.

The driver, sitting in the driver's seat, was immediately drenched in sweat upon seeing this scene!

This was the first time I'd ever seen the arrogant and aloof young master smile at another girl. Normally, when a girl approached him, the young master would only politely say, "I have something to do, goodbye," before coldly walking away.

Or a girl who isn't family might sit down next to you, politely say "Please sit down, goodbye," and then leave.

The young master not only didn't leave coldly, but also got out of the car and opened the door himself!

The task of opening the car door was supposed to be done by him as the driver, but it ended up being done by the young master. How could he not be sweating profusely!

Sweating profusely, he didn't forget to send a message to the butler: "Old Wang, you're up fast! I saw the young master smile at a girl for the first time!"

The Si family.

A large estate needs careful maintenance.

The housekeeper carefully inspected every spot and was very satisfied to see that every corner was being cleaned in an orderly manner.

He nodded approvingly, offered a couple of words of praise, then put his hands behind his back and continued walking forward with a relaxed gait.

The new maids whispered among themselves: "The butler is so handsome, he has an elegant beauty that doesn't show the effects of age, like fine wine."

An elderly servant passing by said, "...You haven't seen him when he's gone mad."

The new maid, who had just been praised by the butler, stood up for the butler.

Before he could even speak, the butler took out his phone, turned it on, and activated the voice recorder.

After hearing the voice message, he immediately jumped up in surprise: "What!?"

"Young Master actually smiled!"

"What wonderful news! Quick! Have Aunt Wu cook a big meal and open some fine wine tonight!"

The butler closed his eyes, gripped his phone tightly, and after a long while, tears streamed down his face.

"Young Master finally has a girl he cares about!"

The new maid pointed blankly at the butler: "This..."

Another elderly servant passing by clicked her tongue twice: "Never mind him, it's an old problem, the kind that can't be cured. In your young people's words, 'he's the second young master's chef.' People who admire and praise the young master."

The butler, with tears welling in his eyes, immediately took out his phone to notify the master:

"Master, the young master has finally taken a liking to a girl!"

company.

Mr. Si, who had just finished a meeting, saw the housekeeper's message and thought it was something important. He rubbed his temples, which were aching from the meeting, and didn't really want to hear about such trivial matters.

But considering that the housekeeper is an elderly person in the family, he wouldn't act without discretion. It must be some important trivial matter that forced him to bother me, so I opened the phone to listen.

After hearing this, Mr. Si immediately jumped up from his chair.

The secretary, who was reporting the upcoming schedule to him, saw her boss suddenly stand up and cautiously asked, "Boss, shall we continue?"

Only then did Mr. Si remember that his secretary was in front of him. He immediately regained his composure and waved his hand, signaling him to leave.

As soon as the other person left and closed the door, he immediately pressed the privacy curtain. His serious and unyielding expression instantly changed, and he excitedly dialed his wife's number: "Wife! Our son finally has a girlfriend!"

Si's mother: "?"

Ye Qi had just gone in when Si Yuelin came in.

He closed the car door, then, as if remembering something, questioned the driver with an unchanged expression: "Uncle He, remember not to say anything nonsense."

The tone was slightly threatening.

The driver immediately nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, young master, from now on I will definitely keep my mouth shut!"

What I said before doesn't count anymore!

Si Yuelin sighed upon hearing this.

Based on his understanding of Uncle He, he probably said everything he needed to say.

Si Yuelin could only leave with the words, "Go to... the shop Xiaoqin frequents. Turn the temperature up a bit."

He pulled out a thin blanket and handed it to Ye Qi: "The air conditioning was set too low just now, so it's a bit chilly. Use this to cover your calves to avoid catching a cold. You can adjust the angle of the blanket yourself."

Si Yuelin felt that it would be too presumptuous of her to personally help with the covering, and that it would make the other person feel uncomfortable, so she chose to let Ye Qi do it herself.

Ye Qi took the blanket and covered herself with it.

Upon hearing the young master's words, the driver's eyes widened.

Is this still the same super straight-laced, unsympathetic young master who politely refuses others?

Seeing that she had covered herself with the blanket, Si Yuelin smiled and said in a joking tone, "Sorry I was late. Did you wait a long time?"

Ye Qi didn't stand on ceremony: "It only took about five minutes."

Five minutes?

"That--"

Si Yuelin quietly took out the milk tea she had hidden aside and said in a half-pleading, half-seductive tone, "For the sake of your recent favorite strawberry milk foam, please forgive me this once, Lady Qiqi~"

Ye Qi took the milk tea and recognized it as being from a small shop she had recently come to like.

That store doesn't have branches or a mini-program; you have to go to the store to order.

Usually, it's the maid in the house who buys them for her.

Unexpectedly, Si Yuelin bought it for her.

Ye Qi inserted the straw and gulped down a few mouthfuls. She touched the inside of the cup and found that not much water had seeped out, so it looked like it was newly bought.

She smiled and said, "Thank you, Xiao Si."

"You're welcome, Xiao Ye."

The driver's eyes widened once again.

Is this his straight-laced young master?!

Give me back my mom... ugh, give me back the Si family mom who gave birth to a straight male son!!!

The car didn't travel long before arriving at the mall.

Si Yuelin removed the blanket from Ye Qi's legs, folded it neatly, and put it back in its original place before letting the driver get out and open the car door for Ye Qi.

After Ye Qi left, Si Yuelin then went out.

Si Yuelin, familiar with the place, led Ye Qi to the eighth floor of the mall.

I found a shop in the corner.

The shop's decor is neither extravagant nor minimalist; instead, it's designed like a tree hollow, filled with real flowers.

It stands out from the group of formal, minimalist, and somewhat aloof shops next to it.

Ye Qi glanced at the store. To be honest, she wouldn't normally go in with this kind of decor.

Seeing Si Yuelin heading straight for the store with such a clear purpose, Ye Qi asked, "Shouldn't we browse around first?"

“My sister only likes the jewelry from this store, so I’m planning to add this to her gift list.”

Ye Qi: "Oh."

Si Yuelin grabbed Ye Qi's wrist and gently pulled her inside: "Let's go, let's go take a look first."

Ye Qi followed him into the store. There weren't many people in the store, only staff members helping to try on jewelry and a cashier.

Their attire wasn't rigid, formal work uniforms, but rather a casual, relaxed style.
