Chapter 47
Xu Feifei looked at the packages scattered all over the floor and didn't know where to start, hesitating about which package to open.
What is this package?
Xu Feifei looked over and saw Lin Yuan effortlessly carrying a rather large express delivery box and asked.
"Let's open it and see." Xu Feifei took the package gently. She looked at the order information; the brand was in English, which she couldn't understand. So, she took her dorm key and deftly cut the tape.
"So it's a sanitary napkin! No wonder it's so light!" Xu Feifei excitedly showed it to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan paused for a moment, then hummed in agreement before turning her head to look at the other packages.
Xu Feifei was still immersed in the joy of unpacking the box. She took out all the items and examined them carefully. The packaging was intact and undamaged.
She bought two of each type, buy one get one free. She divided the items in two, took out her own portion, and put the other in the box. She eagerly presented it to Lin Yuan, saying, "This is for you!"
Lin Yuan looked at the contents of the box, her expression stiffened, and after a moment of silence, she said, "No need, you can use it yourself."
"I bought this on purpose. You can try it out and see which one you like. I'll buy it again if you like it."
“Besides, there are so many here, how long would it take for me to use them all?” Xu Feifei continued.
Lin Yuan said with an embarrassed expression, "But I... I don't really need it."
Are you trying to say you have more?
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan was caught between denying and admitting it, and finally nodded with difficulty and barely perceptible force.
"It's okay, we'll use it up sooner or later, just accept it! I bought it especially for you, please accept it, please accept it~" Xu Feifei said coquettishly, pushing the box closer to her.
Lin Yuan sighed silently, "Fine. You can leave it there, I'll take it with me when I leave."
"Okay, received!" Xu Feifei happily closed the box and placed it at her feet, afraid that she would forget it when she left.
Lin Yuan looked at the box at her feet and rubbed her temples.
Xu Feifei continued to cheerfully open a relatively large express delivery box, and found that it was a foam box.
Upon opening it, I found another package inside, wrapped up tightly.
"What is this?" Xu Feifei murmured.
Hearing her whisper, Lin Yuan also leaned closer to look.
Unzipping the zipper, Xu Feifei's eyes lit up—it was a camera! She carefully picked it up and examined it closely. It was a bit heavy, but acceptable. The handle had a textured, rubbed feel, while the rest was quite smooth.
After touching it, I carefully put the camera back in the bag. Then I looked at the other items in the bag; there was a telephoto lens, a spare battery, a memory card...
There were other miscellaneous things she didn't understand.
Lin Yuan picked up the camera and looked at it. "This camera is nice."
"Really?" Xu Feifei looked at Lin Yuan in surprise.
"Mm." Lin Yuan nodded.
After receiving confirmation, Xu Feifei was even more delighted and asked, "Lin Yuan, do you also do photography?"
"I don't play it, I just know a little about it."
Do you have a camera?
"No."
"Hehe!" Xu Feifei laughed happily, "That's perfect, I bought two. You can have this one!"
After Xu Feifei finished speaking, she pushed the camera to Lin Yuan.
"I......"
Xu Feifei guessed that Lin Yuan was going to refuse as soon as she spoke the first sentence.
She quickly replied, "I bought two of the same style. We'll use them to take pictures of lotus flowers at East Lake on Saturday. Please don't refuse me. Otherwise, I'll have to give them to someone else."
Who are you giving it to?
"This..." This question was a bit difficult for Xu Feifei.
"You really bought two?"
“Yes! Let me look for it first.” Xu Feifei found a box of the same size, opened it, and found an identical camera inside.
"See? I didn't lie to you!"
Lin Yuan looked at it and said, "Alright, I'll accept it then."
Seeing that Lin Yuan had accepted the gifts again, Xu Feifei said happily, "You can accept as many gifts as you want today! I bought two of everything, one for you and one for me."
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why did you buy two things? Just because I tutor you?"
Xu Feifei thought for a moment, "I don't think so. It's just that when I'm shopping, I always find myself buying one for you too."
Lin Yuan was taken aback at first, then saw her smile. The smile reached her eyes, making them bright.
Lin Yuan's smile quickly faded. The next box she opened contained jewelry: necklaces, bracelets, and even anklets. Various headpieces were also available, mostly in gold, with a few in platinum.
"Feifei, why did you buy so much? And it's all gold!" Lin Yuan looked at the pile of jewelry, her head throbbing slightly.
"Gold is more expensive; it's a hard currency!"
Looking at the gleaming gold, Xu Feifei really wanted to take a bite of each one to see if it was real gold. Was this some kind of suppressed nature?
"Hehe." Xu Feifei smiled as she put on a plain gold bracelet and waved it a few times in front of Lin Yuan. "Does it look good?"
The bracelet was golden, making her hands appear even whiter. It was slightly larger than her hand, making her wrist look slender and her fingers appear longer.
"It looks great!" Lin Yuan answered truthfully.
"Then put one on you too." Xu Feifei put one on Lin Yuan without saying a word.
Then, noticing the bracelet on Lin Yuan's hand, he grabbed her hand and said, "Bestie bracelet acquired!"
Lin Yuan had originally intended to take off the bracelet, but the moment Xu Feifei grabbed her hand, she no longer wanted to break free.
Xu Feifei had also planned to give Lin Yuan other jewelry, such as hair clips, necklaces, and anklets. But Lin Yuan absolutely refused, so she had no choice but to give up.
"Okay, I've sorted them out and put them aside. You can take them back with you later." Xu Feifei put the jewelry back on the box and packed it into a bag, unexpectedly filling an entire gift bag.
Xu Feifei placed the bag next to the express delivery box she had just given to Lin Yuan, and they were all piled together.
Lin Yuan knew that Xu Feifei wouldn't listen to her, so she didn't try to dissuade her. She just looked at the bag and sighed silently.
“This is a bit heavy.” Xu Feifei pulled a half-meter-tall delivery box in front of her.
"I'll do it."
"No need, it's nothing."
With a "whoosh," another delivery box was opened.
Inside the express delivery box was a wooden box, with foam padding on all four sides to prevent damage.
Xu Feifei took out the box and placed it on the table. The lid of the box was carved with lotus flowers and koi fish. When she opened the wooden box, a mirror was inlaid in the center of the back of the lid. In the mirror, Xu Feifei's mouth was slightly open, and her eyes were exceptionally bright with surprise.
Lin Yuan looked at the contents of the box, her expression subtle, and her lips twitched slightly.
Xu Feifei happily took out a round fan from the wooden box. It was embroidered with lotus flowers and dragonflies, and reflected the unique luster of silk under the light.
"It's so beautiful!" Xu Feifei exclaimed, handing the fan to Lin Yuan and asking, "Isn't it gorgeous?"
"Hmm, not bad!"
Xu Feifei was very satisfied, so she couldn't wait to take out the Hanfu inside and said, "Ta-da! Look at the Hanfu I bought."
Upon seeing it, Lin Yuan's head, which had been throbbing slightly, suddenly throbbed with pain. When she first saw the fan, her intuition told her that she definitely didn't want it.
Xu Feifei unpacked the package and carefully took out the clothes inside, holding the waistband of the skirt in her hand. As she let go, the skirt flowed down smoothly like moonlight shining on the sloping water of a garden rockery.
The lower skirt is a plain, off-white color with some embroidery at the waist and subtle patterns on the hem that shimmer under the light. The collar of the upper garment is a bluish-green, adding a touch of blue to the overall look.
Xu Feifei placed the dress in front of her chest, swayed it from side to side, and asked with a smile, "Does it look good?"
She spent the entire day asking Lin Yuan if it looked good, asking every time she opened a box. She was afraid Lin Yuan wouldn't be satisfied because she had bought the same style for every box.
"Beautiful!" Lin Yuan paused her rubbing of her temples and praised.
Xu Feifei was overjoyed and handed the unopened wooden box to Lin Yuan, laughing, "Yours! Hahaha! This is our bestie outfit."
Lin Yuan stared at the wooden box in the delivery box, speechless for a moment, her mind filled with exasperation.
To Lin Yuan's surprise, Xu Feifei's next sentence was even more astonishing: "Let's wear this outfit to take photos on Saturday!"
Lin Yuan took a deep breath and declined, saying, "I think I don't need it."
"Why?" Xu Feifei asked, puzzled.
"I...I don't really like skirts."
"Ah." Xu Feifei looked at Lin Yuan in astonishment.
Xu Feifei pursed her lips, feigning unhappiness and pouting, saying pitifully, "Just wear this with me once, please. My biggest wish right now is to take pictures with you in this outfit. Please, please!"
Lin Yuan watched as Xu Feifei shook her hand, her voice pitiful, and her heart trembled slightly.
"And you'll definitely look beautiful in it! Then I'll do your makeup. You'll be like a celestial being descended to earth, the brightest and most dazzling star in the crowd."
Xu Feifei may have praised him without thinking, but every word she spoke was true.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan smiled helplessly and sighed, "I don't like wearing makeup either."
“If you don’t like makeup, then don’t wear it. You’re naturally beautiful, and you look even better without makeup. If you wear makeup, it will only cover up your beauty and make you look less attractive.”
“That’s not what you just said,” Lin Yuan said with a smile.
"Because of you, everything looks good!"
Xu Feifei looked at her with sincere eyes, staring intently, trying to prove her sincerity with her gaze.
Lin Yuan looked into Xu Feifei's eyes, her face clearly reflected in her bright, clear eyes, which occupied most of her field of vision.
After a long while, Xu Feifei couldn't stand the eye contact and turned to look elsewhere.
"Lin Yuan, are you going to wear it or not? I really want to wear the same style as you and take a picture together," Xu Feifei said softly, her eyes lowered.
"I'll think about it."
Seeing that Lin Yuan had softened her stance, Xu Feifei happily gave her a big hug and patted her on the back, saying, "Great, it's a deal!"
The moment Lin Yuan was hugged, she smiled. Her stiff hands hovered on Xu Feifei's back, wanting to hug her back, but she kept trying to overcome the impulse, and remained suspended in the air.
Once Lin Yuan made up her mind, Xu Feifei broke free from the embrace and ran off to continue unpacking the other packages. Lin Yuan looked at her hands and silently mocked herself helplessly.
When Lin Yuan returned to her dorm that evening, she looked at the box of packages in front of the sofa and rubbed her temples in frustration. She really didn't know what to do with it; many of the items inside were things that weren't suitable for her.
Especially that dress; Lin Yuan stared at it, lost in deep thought.
