Shi Xi handed the large bag to Sheng Yan, speechless, "It's obviously a gift for a lot of people!"
Sheng Yan helped her carry the bags, took the room key, and walked towards the elevator, asking, "So who are these for?"
"I bought it for the trainees on the show." After entering the elevator, Shi Xi pointed to herself. "Does it look good?"
Sheng Yan stared at Shi Xi, then turned and pressed the elevator button. "I know you're beautiful, you don't need to emphasize it like this every day."
Shi Xi: ?
"I meant to ask you, do I think the necklace I'm wearing looks good?" Shi Xi realized what was going on.
She was referring to her necklace.
Sheng Yan clearly thought she was narcissistic.
Sheng Yan: ...
His gaze fell on the girl's neck, her delicate collarbone, and the red diamonds glittering on the golden rapier.
"They got my birthday wrong and gave me a birthday present instead," Shi Xi explained. "So I prepared a return gift for them."
Sheng Yan scoffed, "I gave you a birthday present too, why didn't you prepare a return gift for me?"
Shi Xi scrutinized Sheng Yan's tie.
Gray.
A somber, lifeless color scheme.
Sheng Yan took a step back. "What's wrong?"
"I just happened to buy too many ties, so I'll give you one as a return gift!" Shi Xi's eyes crinkled as she picked out a box.
All three ties were packed into a box, and their colors were no longer discernible.
Shi Xi picked one out at random.
All three ties look great!
It looks better than his gray tie!
Sheng Yan looked at the box in front of him and said, "This is a gift you gave to someone else. I don't want it."
Shi Xi: "Huh?"
The elevator doors opened, and we arrived at the floor where Shi Xi's room was located.
Sheng Yan returned the bag to Shi Xi and said, "Remember to prepare a return gift for me tomorrow night."
Shi Xi stepped out of the elevator and watched as the elevator doors closed.
Okay, I'll buy the gift tomorrow.
Shi Xi walked towards her room, just as Xie Yunzhou opened the door, preparing to leave.
"You haven't gone yet!" Shi Xi stepped forward and handed him the gift bag containing the tie, saying, "Perfect timing, this is a gift for you. Wait for me for ten minutes, I'll touch up my makeup, and then we'll go together!"
This saved her the trouble of taking a taxi.
Xie Yunzhou accepted the gift, and seeing Shi Xi return to her room to touch up her makeup, he opened the gift.
The gift was... a tie?
When Xie Yunzhou opened the first one, his smile froze.
Why did you give him a pink tie?!
Seeing that there were still two left, Xie Yunzhou didn't have the courage to make another move.
But surely they wouldn't send three pink ones, would they?
Xie Yunzhou opened the second box.
Claret.
Xie Yunzhou breathed a sigh of relief. Although it wasn't his preferred color scheme, it was much better than pink.
The last item is a dark green tie with subtle patterns; both the texture and the pattern are very sophisticated.
I'll wear this tie tonight.
Xie Yunzhou returned to his room and changed into the tie that Shi Xi had given him.
He rarely wears ties in this color scheme, but surprisingly it looks pretty good.

Hua's Enterprises.
Hua Xuanhe looked at the documents for tomorrow's meeting and marked them up.
The new female secretary brought in coffee, looked at the handsome CEO, took a deep breath, walked over, and deliberately spilled the coffee on Hua Xuan and his chest.
"Ah~ I'm so sorry, Mr. Hua, I didn't mean to~" the female secretary whimpered, reaching out to take off Hua Xuanhe's clothes. "Mr. Hua, please take your clothes off, I'll wash them for you~"
Poor Hua Xuanhe, who was reading the proposal, was caught completely off guard and got splashed with coffee.
Thankfully it was iced coffee.
Hua Xuan took a deep breath, "Do you know how much this dress cost?"
Can't these female secretaries read fewer CEO romance novels?
