Chapter 162 Who can give a gift like you?
At night, at the Shen family villa.
There are many star lights hung inside and outside.
The Christmas atmosphere is very strong.
After Shen Xichuan came back, he found that Xu Jialan had not returned yet.
He glanced at the time. It was almost seven o'clock.
His brows furrowed slightly.
Shen Yankai had already returned.
He came down from upstairs in his slippers. "Don't look anymore. My wife called me half an hour ago and said she had something to do in the lab and she won't be back soon."
Shen Xichuan narrowed his eyes slightly and opened WeChat.
He didn't see Xu Jialan sending him a message.
Shen Yankai poured a glass of water and drank it, then raised his eyebrows, "Why? Didn't your wife tell you?"
He also sighed, "My wife is still the best. She always thinks about reporting her itinerary to me."
Shen Xichuan didn’t even bother to look at him, and went upstairs with the gift.
Shen Yankai looked at his back as he went upstairs and snorted proudly.
The butler who witnessed the whole process: "..."
What kind of resentful brothers are these?
…
It's almost eight o'clock.
Xu Jialan and the others just came back.
As soon as she came back, she keenly discovered that something was wrong with Shen Xichuan.
There is no difference from usual.
But she still felt something was wrong.
She subconsciously looked at An Yuening opposite her.
An Yuening silently looked at Shen Yankai beside her, "What did you do again?"
Shen Yankai looked innocent, "What else could I do? Of course I missed you."
An Yuening smiled slightly, "...get out."
After finishing his meal, Shen Xichuan went upstairs.
Xu Jialan also followed him up.
An Yuening looked at the culprit beside her and elbowed him unhappily, "Virtue."
What is there to compare between these two brothers?
Shen Yankai was caught off guard and his face twisted in pain.
"Fuck, wife, you are murdering your husband."
An Yuening smiled, "Serves you right."
…
Upstairs bedroom.
Xu Jialan followed the man back to the bedroom.
She pursed her lips and closed the door.
Shen Xichuan stood by the French window on the terrace.
The wind tonight is unusually strong and cold.
He didn't go out, but leaned aside, with his hands in his pockets, looking outside casually.
Xu Jialan walked slowly to his side.
Seeing that he still didn't look at her.
She paused, reached out and tugged at the man’s sleeve, “Shen Xichuan.”
Her voice was as clear and cold as ever, yet it carried a subtle softness.
Shen Xichuan’s heart had already softened.
He looked at her and held her hand. "I told you to wear more clothes, why are your hands still so cold?"
Afraid that he would let go, Xu Jialan quickly squeezed between his fingers and held on.
"Because we didn't hold hands tonight."
Shen Xichuan paused, then looked up at her with a half-smile.
"Xu Jialan, who taught you this?"
Xu Jialan looked innocent, "I...I just thought about it myself, can't I say it?"
The man sighed silently and helplessly.
He reached out and pulled her into his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head.
"It's either that I can't, or..."
He paused, "You may not be able to bear the consequences."
Hearing this, Xu Jialan froze.
Shen Xichuan laughed helplessly, “It’s been so long, and you’re still so scared?”
Xu Jialan: "..."
She chose not to answer the question.
Buried in his arms like an ostrich.
The hot embrace made her ears feel hot as well.
Shen Xichuan curled the corners of his mouth, lowered his head, and kissed the top of her head.
"Don't worry, I won't bully you."
Xu Jialan: "..."
This promise has no credibility at all.
She couldn't help but mutter under her breath, "You always say that."
Shen Xichuan raised his beautiful eyebrows, “Oh? Really?”
Xu Jialan had a blank expression on his face.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, he guessed that she must be cursing him in her heart.
Shen Xichuan laughed softly, and his chest shook.
He took something out of his pocket and held it in his palm.
"I'll show you something."
"What?"
Xu Jialan raised his head.
Shen Xichuan’s hand suddenly loosened, like a blue meteor suddenly falling.
After Xu Jialan saw the thing clearly, his breath was held and his eyes lit up.
"Is this... a hairband?"
She gently tapped the aquamarine with her fingertips.
The blue stars swayed gently.
“So beautiful.”
Seeing her smile, Shen Xichuan curled the corners of his mouth, “Well, do you like it?”
"like."
Xu Jialan looked up at him, "So, this is a Christmas present?"
Shen Xichuan smiled, reached out and held her shoulders, and asked her to turn around.
Then he carefully gathered her long hair and tied it into a low ponytail.
Aquamarine sparkling with starlight fell on the long black hair.
It looks like the stars that suddenly appear in the Milky Way.
Xu Jialan subconsciously touched back.
Shen Xichuan’s eyebrows were gentle, “It looks very good.”
"But, it's our first Christmas, so we can't be so casual."
Hearing this, Xu Jialan turned around and asked, "What else have you prepared?"
She was surprised and delighted.
Shen Xichuan took her hand and came to the dressing table and asked her to sit down.
There were a dozen beautifully packaged boxes on the table.
Like a surprise waiting to be opened.
"Don't you like opening presents? I'll let you open as many as you want at once."
Xu Jialan gave him a funny look and said, "Who would give a gift like you?"
Shen Xichuan raised his eyebrows, “Yes, I.”
Hearing his righteous tone, Xu Jialan did not refute him.
She picked up a box and carefully untied the ribbon, being careful not to tear the wrapping paper.
Seeing how careful she was, Shen Xichuan knew that no matter what was inside, she would cherish it.
His eyebrows moved slightly.
So many details...
Xu Jialan finally opened one.
Inside was a black velvet box that looked like a ring box.
She was stunned for a few seconds.
It can't really be a ring, right?
She pursed her lips before opening it.
A pearl glowing white came into view.
The pearls are surrounded by tiny diamonds.
The black hair ring in the middle is clearly visible.
She was stunned again, "Hairband?"
