“This is a little trinket I bought for you in Kunming. Do you like it?” Hao Yunyang took out a small red box from the big box, opened it, and asked Zhao Chenxin with a smile.
“Wow, it’s so cute!” Zhao Chenxin’s eyes lit up when she saw the little wooden puppet inside the box. After exclaiming, she asked, “Is it for me?”
“Of course, there’s more.” Hao Yunyang laughed. Under Zhao Chenxin’s astonished gaze, he kept taking out various trinkets from the box, including wooden puppets, gold items, jade products, and various local specialties like dried fruits and pastries, filling the coffee table in the living room.
After showing off all the things he brought back, Hao Yunyang smiled and said, “These are all for you.”
Zhao Chenxin’s initial excitement gradually turned into numbness as she looked at the items on the coffee table. She silently lowered her head.
“What’s wrong?” Seeing Zhao Chenxin suddenly fall silent, Hao Yunyang was startled and instinctively asked, “Don’t you like them?”
“No,” Zhao Chenxin gently shook her head, her cheeks blushing. She whispered almost inaudibly, “Tomorrow, rent the house next door.”
“What?” Zhao Chenxin’s voice was so soft that Hao Yunyang could barely hear her. Just as he was about to ask again, the half-closed door suddenly opened, and Liu Ming, Kong Lingqiu, Chen Pingping, Zhou Junqiang, Mu Huitong, Quan Wei, and others burst in, startling Hao Yunyang. Zhao Chenxin, who was already shy, lowered her head even more.
“Haha, caught you!” Liu Ming’s face showed a triumphant smile as he saw Hao Yunyang and Zhao Chenxin standing face to face. “How could I be wrong?”
“Yunyang, you came back and didn’t even visit the company, just called Chenxin downstairs. That’s not fair!” Quan Wei grumbled, “You can’t do that!”
“Yeah, yeah!” Pan Fengyu, who loved to join in the fun, nodded repeatedly, as if holding a criticism meeting. “That’s not right!”
Before Pan Fengyu could finish, she saw the items on the coffee table and exclaimed, rushing over to grab a jade bracelet. “It’s so beautiful!”
After speaking, she put the bracelet on her wrist, looked at it under the light, and then smiled at Hao Yunyang. “Brother Yun, can I have this bracelet?”
