CHAPTER 255: CHAPTER 254 DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS? (8)

The relationship between her and Gu Ningyi had only slightly eased today, so how could she have the nerve to ask Gu Ningyi for an invitation? Moreover, she felt there’s a ninety-nine percent chance of being rejected.

Seeming to have guessed Dong Xin Yan’s thoughts, Qin Qian exclaimed, "It’s just an invitation, Mr. Gu won’t be that stingy, just go and give it a try."

Pausing for a moment, Qin Qian seemed to remember something and continued, "Isn’t Christmas coming up soon? You can pick a gift for Mr. Gu and ask him then. People won’t hit a smiling face, so Mr. Gu definitely won’t reject you."

Qin Qian, as usual, was spirited, and while talking, she grabbed Dong Xin Yan’s arm and dragged her into the mall, "Let’s go, let’s think about what gift to buy."

As the holidays approached, all the shops were beautifully decorated in red, and there were plenty of Christmas-themed gifts on display.

Dong Xin Yan walked through the stores one by one, her mind completely blank.

To be honest, she wasn’t lacking in experience in buying gifts for men, because every year she would buy many gifts for Ziyang, but when it came to buying a gift for Gu Ningyi, she genuinely didn’t know what to choose.

He seemed to lack nothing and have everything.

"So, have you thought of what to buy?"

Dong Xin Yan pouted her red lips, frowning as she shook her head, "I can’t think of anything, give me some suggestions."

"Well...,"

Qin Qian tapped her chin with her slender fingers, thought for a moment, and replied, "Usually, you could give him a car or a house, but of course... you can’t afford those, so simply go for a tie or cufflinks."

"...Then I’ll go with a tie."

Since it was a gift for Mr. Gu, it had to be high-end. Dong Xin Yan and Qin Qian walked into a high-end men’s clothing brand store and began to choose.

Given that Dong Xin Yan lived in a villa, she had naturally seen Gu Ningyi’s dressing room, which had all sorts of understated luxury ties. In contrast, even though this brand was high-end enough, it didn’t match up.

But despite that, the price still made one gasp.

Dong Xin Yan casually picked up a tie, and the numbers on the tag almost blinded her.

Previously, she had spent quite a bit on ingredients to cook a meal for Gu Ningyi, and now she had to spend money on him again, and quite a lot of it at that, her heart was bleeding...

But there was no way around it, she had to ask a favor.

She took a deep breath, clenched her fist tightly, gritted her teeth, and said to the salesperson, "Give me the most expensive one!"

After buying the tie, the two walked out of the store, ready to pick out an evening gown, but Dong Xin Yan’s gaze was suddenly drawn to a store window.

In the window, there were male and female mannequins wearing a set of light brown couple outfits, with a long red scarf wrapped around both of their necks, warm and beautiful.

Dong Xin Yan stared fixedly, and in her mind’s eye, she imagined her and Ziyang wearing this couple’s outfit, involuntarily curling her lips.

Although she couldn’t spend Christmas with Ziyang, she still wanted to buy the gift.

Dong Xin Yan smiled and directly changed direction towards that store.

This set of clothes wasn’t cheap either, but Dong Xin Yan swiped her card without batting an eye, still smiling brightly, while Qin Qian, on the side, shook her head, "Just now, swiping the card was like taking your life, and now you’d almost give your life to swipe it."
