Indra has keen hearing; even when Chen Shu speaks softly, he can still hear her.
Boyfriend? His ears turned slightly red without him noticing.
Shi Xi shook her head. "Auntie, he is my classmate, and also Brother Qin's classmate."
Di Shi's eyes darkened; he knew the answer all too well.
Chen Shu held Shi Xi's hand and said, "Xiao Xi, your aunt is very open-minded and doesn't object to children dating early. Seventeen or eighteen is the age when love first blossoms. If you have someone you like, bring them over to your aunt to meet them."
The person you like?
The image of Di Chenxiao's doting and gentle face appeared in Shi Xi's mind.
Has she already fallen for Xiao Xiao?
Chen Shu, being an experienced person, could tell from the girl's unconscious smile and the joy in her eyes that she already had someone she liked, but he just didn't know it yet.
Then look at the man next to him, who has a calm and collected expression.
It's a love triangle.
"Xiao Xi, the items on the top floor of the department store are all top-notch. Let's go there and take a look."
Shi Xi and her companions met two of Chen Shu's business associates at the elevator entrance. However, Chen Shu had an urgent matter to attend to and couldn't stay with Shi Xi.
She felt embarrassed to ask her aunt to accompany her if she had something to do.
So it was Shi Xi and Di Shi who went to the top floor.
The top floor of the department store is a high-end shopping area, where any item costs over five million. It truly is a shopping paradise for the wealthy.
Shi Xi walked into a shop with a rather rustic decor, which was strange, as such shops are usually not located in places like shopping malls.
"Welcome to our store, guests from afar."
An elderly man in a Zhongshan suit came out of the store and said, "I am the store manager. Please feel free to look around. If you like anything, you can get a discount."
Well, Shi Xi was initially startled by the words "outsider," but when she heard that a discount was available, she probably didn't mean it that way.
Shi Xi smiled and said, "Boss, I'd like to give a friend a birthday present. Do you have any recommendations?"
The shopkeeper took a pair of boxing gloves out of the counter.
"Yes, these boxing gloves belonged to the boxing champion Da Bing a hundred years ago, and they would be perfect for your friend."
Qin Ge likes watching boxing matches, so she must like boxing gloves too.
"Thank you, boss. This is fine. Please wrap it up for me." Shi Xi took out a card from her bag. This card was the pocket money her older brother had given her.
"Hehe—young lady, aren't you afraid I'll rip you off if you don't even ask the price?" the shopkeeper chuckled.
Shi Xi handed the card to the shopkeeper, saying, "You don't know how. Besides, money can't buy what you truly love."
After the boss swiped the card, he handed it to Shi Xi and then packaged the gloves.
After packaging, the boss also gave Shi Xi two necklaces, each with a ring on a silver chain, one large and one small, a men's and women's ring.
"These two necklaces are couple necklaces, and these two rings are couple rings. I really like you, so I'm giving you these necklaces. When you meet someone you like, give the other one to him. You two will be together forever."
Shi Xi accepted the necklace with a clear conscience.
"Thank you, boss."
"Haha, no need to thank me. Young lady, let me give you a couple of pieces of advice: Since you're here, make the best of it. Just do what you feel comfortable with."
The boss looked at Shi Xi with an inscrutable expression.
She seemed to be seen through by her boss; what a strange old man. "I will."
Shi Xi left the antique shop with the packaged gloves and necklace.
She looked around but didn't find anything interesting.
"Ashi, are you going to Brother Qin's birthday party tomorrow? We're classmates, you should go."
Qin Ge also gave Di Shi an invitation, but she wasn't sure if he would go back.
