Chapter 42: Aren’t wedding rings supposed to be tokens of love between two people?
Xu Jialan glanced sideways at the men's ring in the salesperson's hand.
She curled her fingertips slightly.
Shen Xichuan didn't urge her, just looked at her.
A few seconds later, Xu Jialan reached out and took the men's ring.
The man's eyes were fixed on her face, paying attention to her expression.
Xu Jialan lowered his head, pursed his lips, and then reached out to lift up his left hand.
Shen Xichuan didn't move, letting her do what she wanted.
The cold ring seemed to warm up on her slightly cold fingertips.
She moved very carefully, as if she might hurt him if she wasn't careful.
The man's eyebrows flickered.
The ring slowly pushed to the end.
Xu Jialan breathed a sigh of relief, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.
Shen Xichuan glanced down and chuckled, “Does it look good?”
Xu Jialan nodded gently and said honestly, "It looks good."
This time, she didn't lie to him.
It’s really beautiful.
Shen Xichuan was very satisfied, turned to the salesperson, and said, “We want these two.”
He said, handing over a black card.
The salesperson smiled and said, "Yes, sir."
"etc."
Xu Jialan called her.
The salesperson was stunned.
Shen Xichuan also tilted his head to look at her.
Xu Jialan pursed his lips, took out a bank card from his bag, and handed it over, "The men's ring uses my card."
Shen Xichuan raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
Xu Jialan explained, "Shouldn't wedding rings be a token of love between two people?"
That's how she understood it.
So, she should pay for the men's ring.
Shen Xichuan listened to her explanation and smiled, “Okay, then swipe your card.”
The salesperson smiled and took out two cards to swipe.
After a while, he came back with a gift bag and two cards.
"Mr. and Mrs., this is your card. I wish you a happy wedding."
Xu Jialan took it with a faint smile, "Thank you."
Shen Xichuan picked up the bag.
The two walked out of the jewelry store.
As I continued to walk inside.
Xu Jialan's gaze would occasionally fall on the ring finger of his left hand, and he was a little absent-minded.
Shen Xichuan noticed her gaze keenly and curled the corners of his lips.
He simply reached out and picked out a few gifts that wouldn't be impolite, took them to the front desk, and pulled out the card he had just used to pay.
Wait until Xu Jialan comes to his senses.
Things for Shen Yankai have been bought.
"Huh?"
Shen Xichuan picked up those things, held her left hand with his other hand, and walked out, "Let's go."
Xu Jialan opened his mouth and said, "Didn't you say I would buy the things?"
Why didn't he tell her that he paid?
Shen Xichuan raised his eyebrows, “When did you say that?”
Xu Jialan: “?”
Shen Xichuan was very calm, “I didn’t say that, don’t wrongly accuse me.”
Xu Jialan: “…”
She looked at him helplessly as he acted like a spoiled brat.
"This is my gift to your brother, not you."
Shen Xichuan hummed, “Yes, you gave it to me.”
"Then I should buy it." Xu Jialan said.
Shen Xichuan took her hand, and the diamond ring she had just put on was shining beautifully.
"You've already put on your wedding ring, and you still want to share yours with me?"
Xu Jialan was speechless for a moment.
She could never win the argument with him.
Shen Xichuan curled his lips in satisfaction, “Okay, since we are married, then what I buy is naturally what you buy, huh?”
Xu Jialan was convinced.
…
When the two of them arrived at the restaurant prepared by Shen Yankai.
It's already past eight o'clock in the evening.
It's late for dinner at this time.
Shen Xichuan took Xu Jialan’s hand and walked to the door of the box.
The waiter opened the door for them.
Shen Yankai heard the noise, raised his head, and looked at Shen Xichuan.
"If you don't bring someone here, I really think you are going to lie to me again this time."
Shen Xichuan clicked his tongue, “That’s because I wasted time buying you a meeting gift.”
Xu Jialan: “…”
Doesn’t he feel guilty?
Shen Yankai's expression immediately improved a lot.
He took the gift bags, his brows softening. "Since this is our first meeting, I should have prepared a gift for my sister-in-law. How could I let you spend so much money?"
Shen Xichuan pulled out a chair beside him and asked Xu Jialan to sit down.
He glanced at Shen Yankai, "Have you prepared the gift for meeting me?"
Seeing that he was not polite at all, Shen Yankai wanted to glare at him, but he held back.
"certainly."
Xu Jialan felt even more embarrassed when he heard the conversation between the two.
She couldn't help but tug at the man's sleeve.
Shen Xichuan simply held her hand in his palm.
Xu Jialan completely gave up struggling: "..."
She tried to look calmly at Shen Yankai, who looked somewhat similar to Shen Xichuan.
Looking at that somewhat similar face, she was no longer so nervous.
Shen Yankai directly took out a square box, the size of his palm.
He put the box on the table and pushed it over to Xu Jialan.
"It's just a small gift for our first meeting. I hope you don't mind it, sister-in-law."
Xu Jialan was thinking about how to start.
Shen Xichuan picked up the box and opened it directly.
There was nothing jewellery in it.
But a car key.
Xu Jialan looked over and his expression suddenly froze.
If she remembered correctly, the logo seemed to be a Ferrari.
Shen Xichuan curled the corners of his lips in satisfaction, “Not bad.”
He closed the box and placed it next to Xu Jialan's hand. "This is for you, keep it."
Xu Jialan: “…”
Shen Xichuan squeezed her hand under the table.
Xu Jialan raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said politely, "Thank you."
Shen Yankai waved his hand, “We are all family, no need to thank me.”
Xu Jialan breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone was present, and Shen Yankai immediately had the dishes served.
The dishes were all asked to Shen Xichuan before he had them prepared.
I heard that Xu Jialan had been ill before, so in addition to spicy dishes, there were also a few light dishes on the table.
Shen Xichuan was worried that she would not be used to it, so he picked up the serving chopsticks and put some of her favorite dishes into her bowl.
He whispered, "Eat."
Xu Jialan lowered his eyes to look at the food in the bowl, curled his eyes, and hummed, "Okay."
Shen Yankai, who was sitting opposite, kept watching their every move.
Especially when he saw Shen Xichuan patiently picking up food for Xu Jialan.
He couldn't hide the shock and surprise in his eyes.
After all, in his impression, Shen Xichuan has always been a person who does his own thing and will not change himself because of one person.
But now, he clearly felt the change in Shen Xichuan.
There was a bit more admiration in the look in Shen Yankai's eyes when he looked at Xu Jialan.
It was able to bring his god-like brother down to earth.
His sister-in-law is no ordinary person.
Shen Xichuan noticed his gaze, looked over, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
That look contained a warning.
Shen Yankai: “…”
