He waited expectantly for her answer, as if he would gather all sorts of rare and precious gems to give her if she told him.
His actions made her afraid to answer honestly, okay?
"Actually, I'm just so-so about jewelry..." I like it, no, I don't like it.
"Which brand of bag do you like?"
"Huh? (⊙o⊙)?" Why is he suddenly so interested in these things?
"There's no specific brand I like; I just really like several major European and American brands. It mainly depends on the style." Would that answer be more reliable?
After asking about the bag, Gong Chengjue then asked about the dress...
Su Ziqing thought he had experienced something during his trip abroad, otherwise why would he suddenly be like this?
Doesn't he like to fill her wardrobe with all the latest bags, dresses, and other new seasonal items?
What she didn't know was that Gong Chengjue's trip abroad was also inspired by his friend.
Saying that such a haphazard search only makes one appear wealthy and powerful, without adding any merit whatsoever.
Gifts should be given with precision, shouldn't they?
From the type of gift to the brand and even the color, you need to understand all these details before you can give a truly thoughtful gift.
Giving away something that can be bought with money alone is not considered giving a gift; it's considered giving someone a free pass.
Heaven knows that Gong Chengjue, a grown man, had never paid attention to these things about women.
Don't they all like expensive bags, expensive dresses, and expensive jewelry?
Unfortunately, he didn't have a biological mother to consult, so he could only figure it out by trial and error.
Su Ziqing was getting increasingly flustered by his increasingly detailed questions. What was he trying to do?
That's terrifying!
Gong Chengjue received a satisfactory answer and carefully memorized all the details before nodding in satisfaction. "From now on, I'll only give gifts with heartfelt sincerity." Not just money!
These words made Su Ziqing feel even more guilty.
Look at their sincerity.
Look at yourself again...
The difference was so stark that she didn't even want to defend herself anymore.
Fortunately, the food was finally served, which eased her guilt.
"Let's eat something first?" she smiled sweetly, telling me not to hold onto her hand any longer!
Gong Chengjue, however, was not so easily appeased. He used a gift as a starting point to uncover her various standards and preferences. At this moment, he slightly raised his chin and coughed lightly, "And what about you?"
"Huh? Me? I eat too." She answered very seriously.
Gong Chengjue: "!" Is that what he asked?
Su Ziqing blinked. "What's wrong? Aren't you hungry? I didn't eat lunch, and I'm really hungry now."
She understood what he meant, but...
The gift she had prepared was simply not presentable.
It involved neither money nor genuine care.
Are you trying to fob off a beggar?
No, tomorrow, she'll go see if she can carefully choose a gift, even if it doesn't involve money, it has to be thoughtful.
Gong Chengjue: "..." When did his little darling become so intellectually challenged?
“A gift!” he said directly.
Didn't she ask Luo Jinhan about the circle he was pointing to?
So you must have bought a ring? What about the gift?
It's only fair to reciprocate!
He was a little excited, having not yet received the gift, but pretended to be aloof.
Su Ziqing's heart skipped a beat. "You... um, tomorrow is Valentine's Day~"
As expected, Luo Jinhan is only loyal to Gong Chengjue's special assistant. We told him to keep it a secret, so how did he end up telling everyone?
Yes, tomorrow is Valentine's Day, so she prepared a gift but didn't bring it with her, right?
Gong Chengjue couldn't help but pull her close and kiss her forehead. "Okay."
Su Ziqing felt she was in a bit of a predicament. He knew she had asked about his ring size and probably guessed she wanted a ring or something similar as a gift. If it was Valentine's Day tomorrow, she wouldn't be able to give it to him...
"Gurgle~" Her stomach made a soft protest, and Su Ziqing felt a little embarrassed.
However, Gong Chengjue finally let her go, returned to his original seat, and asked, "What have you been so busy with that you didn't even have lunch?"
"Regarding work-related matters, we need to hire a celebrity to endorse the product, but we haven't reached an agreement yet."
"Do you need my help?" Gong Chengjue asked casually.
Su Ziqing shook her head, "No need, I can handle this kind of thing."
"Yes, you can ask Jinhan if you have any questions. He has resources in the entertainment industry." Gong Chengjue didn't care much about these trivial matters.
Su Ziqing nodded. "Okay."
Phew~ At least we're no longer arguing about the gift.
However, things didn't end so smoothly...
When the two were leaving after their meal, they were accidentally bumped into in the lobby of the building. Su Ziqing was also distracted at the time, and her bag fell to the ground.
Because of his status, Gong Chengjue didn't think much about it at the moment and carried Su Ziqing away from the person who bumped into them.
It wasn't that he was overthinking things; because of the date, he hadn't even brought Luo Jinhan with him today, and if something unexpected happened, it was hard to guarantee that nothing would go wrong.
"Are you alright?" Gong Chengjue asked Su Ziqing anxiously.
Seeing his strong reaction, Su Ziqing immediately replied, "It's nothing."
"Sorry, sorry," the person who bumped into the person apologized.
Su Ziqing shook her head. "It's nothing."
She bent down to pick up the things scattered on the ground.
To match her dress, she carried a very small bag, barely big enough to hold her lipstick and two ring boxes.
So the items were knocked out, and the two small brocade boxes were naturally exposed to the public.
Gong Chengjue spotted the brocade box lying on the ground at a glance.
