"I bought this pendant while shopping today, thinking you would like it, so I plan to give it to you tomorrow."
Zhao Xuehui held the doll pendant in her hand and placed it somewhat shyly in front of Zhou Changgui.
Zhou Changgui was slightly stunned at first, then looked at Zhao Xuehui with a shy smile in front of him, and then at the miniature human-shaped doll in her palm, and a surge of joy welled up in his heart.
If he wasn't mistaken, Zhao Xuehui really did have feelings for him?
Otherwise, at this time, he would specially give her such a small doll, and the smile on his face looked ambiguous, clearly indicating that he had feelings for her!
Thinking of this, Zhou Changgui felt increasingly smug, but he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he looked at Zhao Xuehui in front of him with some surprise, and then, as if he had thought of something, his face suddenly flushed slightly.
"Xuehui, what's wrong with you...?"
Looking at Zhou Changgui's innocent and naive appearance, Zhao Xuehui felt disgusted, but she still looked at him sincerely. Her big eyes were full of clarity, and no one could see the slightest bit of falsehood in them.
"I just thought this little doll looked a lot like you, so I couldn't resist buying it. It's also a way of making up for not talking to you lately."
Seeing Zhou Changhui standing there without reaching out to take the toy, Zhao Xuehui said helplessly, "Teacher Zhou, you don't really not want to accept it, do you? If you don't want to, then I'll take it back..."
As she spoke, Zhao Xuehui looked as if she wanted to put the doll back into her pocket, with a hint of disappointment on her face.
"No, I like it very much."
Before Zhao Xuehui could take it back, Zhou Changgui quickly suppressed his overwhelming joy, reached out, and saw that the doll was about to be put back into Zhao Xuehui's pocket. He quickly took the doll from Zhao Xuehui's hand.
Looking at the small doll in front of him, although the workmanship was not particularly exquisite, it was, after all, a gift from Zhao Kehui, and this gift also carried special meaning. The more Zhou Changgui thought about it, the more proud he became.
No matter how beautiful or outstanding you are, what good is it?
He's completely bewitched by himself!
Zhou Changgui was filled with pride, and looking at the small doll in front of him, he had a happy smile on his face.
"I never expected that you, Xuehui, had been thinking of me all along. I thought you weren't going to talk to me anymore."
As Zhou Changgui spoke, his voice was filled with joy. He held the doll in his hand very seriously and looked at Zhao Xuehui in front of him intently.
"I will cherish this gift. It's a special gift from you, Xuehui. It's the most important thing to me."
Seeing Zhou Changgui say these words so earnestly, Zhao Xuehui wished she could slap him across the face.
It's such a waste that someone with such superb acting skills isn't an actor!
While cursing Zhou Changgui countless times in her heart, Zhao Xuehui blushed and touched her ear somewhat embarrassedly.
"I just thought this little doll would suit you better, and I was afraid you might misunderstand me, so I prepared to give it to you. It's not an expensive gift, so you don't need to take it so seriously..."
Before she could finish speaking, Zhou Changgui impatiently interrupted Zhao Xuehui.
"No, the value of this little doll cannot be measured by money. The key is that it was given to me by you, Xuehui, which is why it is so precious to me."
Zhou Changgui smiled contentedly and said sincerely, "I will carry it with me every day. Whenever I see it, I will think of you."
Seeing Zhou Changgui's serious expression, Zhao Xuehui couldn't help but chuckle, slowly exhaling to suppress her discomfort.
"I'm glad you like it."
Looking at Zhou Changgui's smile, Zhao Xuehui secretly thought to herself that this little doll was just a free gift that the clothing store had given her and Jiang Sheng when they went shopping.
It's so ugly, and although the workmanship is somewhat exquisite, it's not what she likes.
At the time, Zhao Xuehui thought that since it was a free gift from the clothing store, she accepted it even though she didn't like it. She never expected it would come in handy now.
Since it's free anyway, if she really had to give Zhou Changgui any gift, Zhao Xuehui would feel it would be a huge loss if she spent even a single penny on him.
Luckily, he got this free gift today; he really got a good deal!
Zhao Xuehui thought to herself, but walked alongside Zhou Changgui, chatting with him as they went. Before long, they were almost home.
Standing at her own door, Zhao Xuehui looked at Zhou Changgui, who seemed to want to say something but hesitated. She knew exactly what he was talking about, but pretended not to understand anything and gave him a slight smile.
"Teacher Zhou, thank you so much for taking me home today. If it's convenient for you tomorrow afternoon, I'd like to have lunch with you. I wonder if it's presumptuous of me to invite you like this..."
"No offense intended, of course not at all."
Zhou Changgui interrupted Zhao Xuehui once again, his face showing a hint of joy as he spoke his unfinished words.
"If someone else invited me, I definitely wouldn't have time, but if it's you who invited me, I'm available anytime, anywhere!"
These words clearly revealed her true thoughts, and if Zhao Xuehui wasn't stupid, she would definitely be able to understand the meaning behind them.
A blush instantly spread across her face, and she subconsciously brushed a strand of hair behind her ear.
"Look at what you're saying."
Perhaps because of shyness, or perhaps for some other reason, Zhao Xuehui's voice was very soft, and if you didn't listen carefully, you really couldn't hear what she was saying.
“If it were any other guy asking me out to dinner, I definitely wouldn’t have time. But if it’s you, Teacher Zhou, then even if I don’t have time, I’ll definitely make time to have dinner with you. Besides, it was me who invited you.”
At this point, Zhao Xuehui's face grew increasingly red, and she glanced at Zhou Changgui again.
That look in her eyes... it just seems so ambiguous.
Just as Zhou Changgui was looking at Zhao Xuehui in front of him and couldn't help but let his mind wander, Zhao Xuehui suddenly stepped forward and extended her left hand to Zhou Changgui.
Zhou Changgui almost stopped breathing, and his whole body stiffened slightly for a moment.
