Ni Sitian walked over, put down her bag, and Xiang Zhilan seemed not to have noticed her arrival.
She couldn't help but reach out and wave her hand in front of Xiang Zhilan.
Xiang Zhilan then came to her senses, looked up at Ni Sitian, and smiled faintly: "You're here."
"What are you thinking about, so lost in thought?" Ni Sitian looked closely at Xiang Zhilan, her brows furrowing slightly. "Why have you suddenly lost so much weight?"
"It's nothing, I'm just on a diet." Xiang Zhilan smoothed her hair and smiled at Ni Sitian, "Don't you think my chin looks better now that it's a bit sharper?"
"You're still trying to lose weight? You're so much taller than me, but you don't even weigh as much as me." Ni Sitian frowned disapprovingly.
Xiang Zhilan smiled and didn't dwell on the topic. She got up and took Ni Sitian's arm. "Let's go for a walk."
Ni Sitian nodded, and the two walked towards the mall.
As Ni Sitian walked, she talked to Xiang Zhilan about picking out a birthday gift for Xu Tingchuan, lamenting that their views on material things were completely different.
Xiang Zhilan listened to her troubles and felt a little envious. At least she was with the person she loved. Even if they had different views on life, they could work things out slowly. But she would never have that chance again.
After breaking up with Feng Jingxian that day, Feng Jingxian came to see her a few more times, but she no longer dared to face him and refused to see him all the time.
“Actually, buying him a watch would be fine too. He doesn’t care about the price of the gift; he cares about the thought behind it,” Xiang Zhilan said to Ni Sitian, coming back to her senses.
"That's true, but..."
"Let's go take a look first." Xiang Zhilan pulled Ni Sitian and headed towards the luxury watch section.
Inside the glass case, rows of expensive watches dazzled Ni Sitian.
Finally, I asked the sales assistant and told her my budget.
The sales assistant led them to another section, smiling and making recommendations.
Ni Sitian's gaze fell on a silver wristwatch with a cushion-shaped blue dial. The watch was simple, elegant, and understated, which should suit Xu Tingchuan's temperament very well.
The sales assistant, with keen insight, opened the display case, put on gloves, took out the watch, and introduced it to Ni Sitian: "This is one of the Overseas series. The dial has a sunburst satin brushed finish, the crystal is sapphire glass, the strap is stainless steel, and it also comes with a replaceable black alligator leather strap. It's a very cost-effective watch."
Ni Sitian didn't understand what she was talking about. When she heard that it was good value for money, she glanced at the price tag. It was 156,000 yuan, which was almost her entire net worth.
Xiang Zhilan glanced at it and also thought it was too expensive, so she told Ni Sitian to look at other options.
Ni Sitian nodded and left the watch shop with Xiang Zhilan, but couldn't help looking back at the boutique.
The two shopped around for a while, but Ni Sitian still couldn't find a gift she liked. However, Xiang Zhilan bought some things, which left Ni Sitian a little confused.
After shopping for a while, the two found a restaurant to sit down. Ni Sitian glanced at the dark green windbreaker and military boots in Xiang Zhilan's shopping bag and asked jokingly, "What are you buying these for? Are you going to have the newspaper send you to the military camp for an interview?"
"More or less." Xiang Zhilan lowered her head and took a sip of her drink, then looked at Ni Sitian and said, "I'm going to Syria in a few days to film war news."
Ni Sitian's smile vanished, replaced by anxiety and panic: "Isn't there a war going on there right now? Why would they want that place?!"
"That's why we have to go, it's because of the war." Xiang Zhilan pursed her lips and smiled nonchalantly.
