Shi Qian saw his name engraved on it and rubbed his forehead. He knew that Fu Xiuhan was best at being persistent and clingy.
If he doesn't accept it now, he can already imagine the whole school seeing Fu Xiuhan chasing after him with a diamond-encrusted watch as a gift tomorrow.
Never mind, it's just a token of my appreciation. I'll check how much it costs later and give it back to Fu Xiuhan on his birthday.
"Okay, thank you."
Meng Qing remained unmoved throughout, looking down at his phone. He knew Shi Qian wouldn't accept such valuable items; the things Fu Xiuhan brought up were unlikely to catch Shi Qian's eye.
When Meng Qing heard that Shi Qian was going to accept it, she looked up at the watch in Fu Xiuhan's hand.
Brick inlay, watchmaking, engraving.
Okay, he's noted it down.
Shi Qian likes this kind of thing.
After much searching, the judges from the Music Association finally made it into the banquet hall on the 20th floor. They were surprised to find that security for Shi Qian's birthday banquet was so tight. They were stopped outside and questioned for a long time before being allowed in.
Kong Chuanbai and his group learned from Chairman Yuan that today was Shi Qian's birthday. The chairman had to go on a business trip and asked Kong Chuanbai to bring Shi Qian a gift.
Kong Chuanbai told a few people in the group that since it was Shi Qian's eighteenth birthday, they all brought gifts and wanted to congratulate him.
When I first got downstairs, I saw a sign on the first floor that said "Shi Family Birthday Banquet," and I thought it was Shi Qian's, so I went to the wrong place.
Kong Chuanbo asked the chairman and found out it was on the 20th floor.
As soon as they went up, they were stopped by bodyguards who said that the place was booked by someone and that they would not be receiving other guests.
After explaining their purpose, the bodyguards told them to wait a while. After a while, Shi Qian came out and took them inside.
"Why are you here?"
"The president said it's your birthday, but he's busy right now, so he asked us to bring you a gift."
"We also brought you a gift. Happy 18th birthday, Shi."
Shi Qian thanked him and said that if he needed anything next time, he could tell him in the group chat so he wouldn't have to wait at the door.
With Fu Xiuhan's consent, Shi Qian arranged for several teachers from the music association to sit at the same table with them.
After they sat down, they realized that the man dressed in flamboyant clothes, like a peacock spreading its tail, was the second young master of the Fu family in the capital. Seeing is believing, and the young master's taste is truly extraordinary.
When Fu Xiuhan heard that these people were all Shi Qian's friends, he greeted them very politely, without any airs.
The group chatted casually and enjoyed their meal. Perhaps knowing that today's meal was particularly expensive, Shi Qian found it exceptionally delicious.
Every bite tastes like money.
Unlike the harmonious atmosphere upstairs, an awkward atmosphere permeated the entire evening downstairs.
Although everyone was sitting down to eat, their minds were elsewhere; they had all gone upstairs.
Several people even left early, intending to go upstairs to try their luck and see if they could catch a glimpse of Young Master Fu.
Unfortunately, security was tight, and none of them were able to get in; they didn't even see a single person.
The banquet grew increasingly tasteless as it progressed, and ended rather coldly.
Su Kaiyue and the others dispersed, almost driven mad with anger. Even Madam Ma, who had previously expressed her wish for her daughter to become friends with Shi Yan, said she had something to do and left early.
Madam Ma was a smart woman. She roughly figured out what was going on tonight. She guessed that the young master of the Shi family had offended the second young master of the Fu family in some way, which led to this embarrassing incident.
Young Master Fu didn't show up at all that night, and didn't even bring a gift.
It's one thing if one or two people go to the wrong place, but how could they all go to the wrong place? It's clearly an attempt to embarrass the Shi family.
Forget it, let's not talk about the marriage anymore. She knows which family is more important, the Shi family or the Fu family.
Su Kaiyue wanted to call and yell at Shi Qian, but then she remembered that she had been blocked.
She went upstairs to look for someone, but was stopped at the door by the Fu family's bodyguards and couldn't get in at all.
Back at the hotel, Su Kaiyue asked Shi Yan, "What's going on between you and that young master from the Fu family?"
Shi Yan had originally planned to make a big splash tonight, but after Fu Xiuhan's outburst, he probably won't have many people remembering him anymore.
Already seething with anger, Shi Yan felt even more annoyed upon hearing Su Kaiyue's question, but he suppressed his resentment and replied, "I don't know either, we agreed on everything before."
"Forget it, it's hard for outsiders to know what these rich young masters are thinking. They change every day, they're just spoiled!"
"Pack your things, you'll sleep here tonight, you have class tomorrow."
Shi Yan nodded and returned to his room.
He took out his phone and sent a message to Shi Yan, wanting to give him a good scolding, calling him shameless and a seducer.
I sent the message, but when I was about to send a second one, I found that the person had blocked me.
This is outrageous! Shi Qian actually dared to block him!
Shi Yan immediately made a call, but the other party was already on another call.
Great, I've blocked his number too.
Shi Qian, just you wait!
After dinner, the group returned to school. Shi Qian took several gifts from the gatekeeper, including one from President Yan and Dr. Lu, and another from Shi Wang.
Shi Wang left a note saying that he was away on a business trip and that he was sending the gift to him.
Shi Qian did not accept it, but told the security guard that he would contact Shi Wang tomorrow to send it back.
When Shi Qian returned to her room after taking a shower, she saw a message from Shi Yan pop up on her phone, scolding her for being shameless and disgusting.
Shi Qian realized she had forgotten to block Shi Yan, so she moved her finger and Shi Yan was instantly added to the blacklist.
The world suddenly became quiet.
He had thought this year's birthday party would be quiet and deserted, but it turned out to be much better than he had expected.
Shi Qian lay in bed, ready to sleep, but tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
Suddenly remembering something, he got up again, opened the drawer, and took out the watch that Fu Xiuhan had given him.
He remembered that the watch brand was worth about six digits, but he wasn't sure exactly how many digits it was or to which end it would be rounded up.
He checked the price on the official website but couldn't find the exact same one.
Finally, I found a similar model, but it cost seven figures.
Very well, my heart is dead.
Suddenly, Shi Qian owed Fu Xiuhan a seven-figure birthday gift. She lay back on the bed, but now she really couldn't fall asleep.
The next day, Shi Qian returned to the classroom with dark circles under her eyes, Meng Qing was called away by the teacher early in the morning, and Fu Xiuhan asked for leave again.
As soon as he sat down, he felt Shi Yan staring intently at him, as if he wanted to kill him with his eyes.
Shi Qian recalled Shi Yan's inexplicable verbal attacks last night. He had been behaving himself and hadn't provoked this guy, so why did he explode again?
Shi Yan turned his head to say something to Shi Qian when his phone suddenly beeped. Shi Yan looked down and his face turned pale when he saw what the message was.
"Xiaoyan, your father and mother have come up from the countryside and want to visit you in Yancheng. They have train tickets for this afternoon, so you don't need to come pick us up."
"Are you at No. 1 Middle School? We can find our way and come to your school tonight. Our family hasn't seen each other for over ten years. If your parents are here, we can meet up with them."
“Your younger brother has been sick recently. He was supposed to come with us, but it seems he won’t be able to this time.”
"By the way, why didn't you send any money last month?"
