Chapter 15
Before we knew it, it was Jiang Yi's birthday.
Xu Wang learned about Jiang Yi's birthday from his mother, because Lu Qiao had asked her for leave to take Jiang Yi out for fun on her birthday. Xu Wang was shocked when he suddenly heard that it was Jiang Yi's birthday. Seeing her son's reaction, Fu Zhaoya couldn't help but ask, "Son, Xiao Yi has helped you so much. Shouldn't you do something for her birthday?"
Xu Wang simply said "Oh," and then coolly pushed his wheelchair away, as if he hadn't heard anything.
Looking at her son's somewhat irritating attitude, Fu Zhaoya shook her head helplessly and said, "You ungrateful brat."
Then I started thinking about what gift to give Jiang Yi.
After all, Jiang Yi had been a great help to them since she came to their home, not only to Xu Wang but also to Fu Zhaoya, so naturally she had to show her gratitude.
However, she couldn't figure out what young girls these days liked, so after thinking about it, she sent Lu Qiao a red envelope and said, "Qiao'er, you can decide what to buy for Xiao Yi."
When Lu Qiao received Fu Zhaoya's red envelope, she was a little surprised. Looking at her daughter beside her, a faint smile gradually appeared in her eyes. She thought back to when she came here with her child and was very nervous. At that time, she never thought that her daughter would be so lovable and that Fu Zhaoya would like her so much.
In the past, Lu Qiao would have declined the money, but since it was Jiang Yi's birthday red envelope, she quickly accepted it. After saying thank you, she gave the money to Jiang Yi and said, "This is a red envelope from your mother. Since it's your birthday gift, your mother is entrusting it to you for safekeeping. But you must be mindful of your money. Use money only when necessary, and don't waste it on things you shouldn't."
Jiang Yi replied, "Okay, Mom."
She understands the importance of saving money. Besides, she's not saving all that money for the time being. She's keeping it all in her bank account for now, planning to figure out how to use it when she goes to university. For now, she'll just let it sit in her bank account and earn interest like a slave to herself.
That day, Lu Qiao took her to many places, bought her a cake, a lot of food, and several pretty dresses. Overall, she had a very happy day.
Some of her close friends on WeChat sent her their blessings, which Jiang Yi thanked one by one. Later that night, Anan asked her to come downstairs. When Anan saw her, he scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly, "Um, Xiao Yi, I didn't know what you liked, so I gave you this."
It's a watercolor set with a very rich variety of colors.
Jiang Yi sometimes likes to draw. The last time she drew, Anan saw her and was a little shocked. He asked, "You draw so well!"
Jiang Yi felt a little embarrassed at the time.
After all, she hadn't studied for very long.
She glanced at the brand of the watercolors in her hand; they were an imported brand, and the price was clearly not cheap, costing several thousand yuan. She was grateful that Anan was willing to spend that much. She smiled and said, "Thank you, Anan. I really like them."
Jiang Yi smiled happily, her eyes curving like little crescent moons. When Anan saw the smile in her eyes, his face unconsciously turned a little red. Then he looked away and said, "I'm glad you like it."
Then he turned around and quickly ran away.
Although Jiang Yi felt that Anan's behavior was a little strange, she didn't think too much about it. Just as she was about to leave with Anan's watercolors, she saw Xu Wang sitting in a wheelchair not far away, his expression somewhat unpleasant, and he seemed to be saying in a rather fierce tone:
"Jiang Yi, come here."
Jiang Yi could tell from his expression that the young master was unhappy, but she didn't know what she had done to offend him. She felt a little confused. However, he asked her to come over, and she did. There was no other reason than to see what was wrong with this guy this time. If he made her unhappy on her birthday, then she would definitely teach him a lesson.
However, when he got upstairs, he saw the boy giving him a new computer, saying, "This is your birthday present."
As if remembering something, he said in a stiff tone, "You're welcome."
Jiang Yi never expected that he would ask her to come up here to deliver a computer. She glanced at it and found that it was the latest model from a big brand, costing over ten thousand yuan, and it was even pink. Heaven knows how much she coveted it, but since she was a student, she hesitated and didn't buy it. After all, buying it at this time wouldn't be of any use.
How did this guy know I wanted a computer? Is he a mind reader?
Seeing that she hadn't reacted for a long time while holding the computer, Xu Wang, who had his back to her, finally turned around with a puzzled expression and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you like it?"
Jiang Yi nodded, her beautiful eyes seemingly filled with spring water, and said with delight, "I like it, I like it, thank you, young master."
"If you like it, that's fine."
Xu Wang still had a tense expression, but Jiang Yi was busy looking at her computer and had no idea that the boy unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, she liked the gift he had chosen, and her smile was so radiant that she seemed to like him even more.
Xu Wang didn't know why he minded her contact with Anan, but when he saw the two of them together, he always felt a little uncomfortable, as if something was blocking his way.
He didn't dare ask Lu Yang for advice, because if he did, Lu Yang might say, "Oh no, Brother Xu, you've fallen in love."
But they are both just students right now, so what love or romance could they possibly have? Shouldn't they be focusing on their studies?
Jiang Yi took the computer Xu Wang gave her and went home. When Lu Qiao saw her daughter holding the computer, she was worried that it would affect her studies. She was hesitating about how to tell her daughter to play on the computer less. Then she saw her daughter using the computer for class. When she saw that her daughter said it was for studying, Lu Qiao was relieved. She just reminded her daughter to take good care of her eyes.
Jiang Yi obediently said "okay".
After her mother left, Jiang Yi, having finished fooling her, started looking into things related to opening a shop online.
Although she doesn't plan to open a shop now, she does have that plan for the future. She's saving money now so that she can open her own little shop when she goes to university, studying and running the shop at the same time. That kind of life is wonderful.
