Chapter 860 - Was I too rude to him?
The next morning ca earlier than it was expected. It was hard to say if it was for the keyboard breakers war going online that made the night get bored of the ti or was it for the sun that was eager to wake Li Xue up. But soon the sun got up to rise in the sky, bringing another blissful morning for everyone.
In the room, Li Xue was still on the bed. When felt the sunlight interrupting her sleep, her hand reached to cover her eyes. But before her prevention, suddenly she felt soone helping her with it. The rays of the sun were obstructed but it still made her realize that it was ti for her to get up to begin the day.
"Ahh, don't do that. You will only make lazy" she said, lightly rubbing the sleep off her eyes while twisting and turning under the blanket before opening her eyes to look at the man. Knowing her need without her telling, he has closed the curtains for her.
Li Xue's lips curled up into a smile when saw his beautiful face as the first thing in the morning.
"If you are sleepy then sleep more for a while. I will talk with Su Fai and things will be managed". Feng Shufen said as closing the curtains, he turned to look back at the woman. He was already dressed for the day with his hands tucked inside his pant's pockets.
Li Xue got up, shaking her head. "You are already ready for your company yet you are asking to laze off here. Don't ruin my habits. I also have work to get on and appointnts to attend. I can't sleep here and postpone all that" She said, ready to get off the bed to head to the washroom first. But then her gaze paused on sothing else kept on the table.
Feng Shufen followed her eyes before nonchalantly walking to take a seat on a distant couch. "You have again left it back in the car. So last night Gao Fan ca to deliver it."
Li Xue nodded, giving her lips an inaudible 'oh' shape. "Why did you not open to see it then? Did you check what's inside?" She asked, even though she could see the brocade box was still sealed as it was before.
The man looked at her with a raised eyebrow. His expression, representing the obviousness of his answer. To which Li Xue just shrugged her shoulders off in nonchalance. "Don't look at like that. I have decided to return it on the last day. But it was you who said that you would help with its cost, so I had no other option but to accept his yet another expensive gift. Furthermore, aren't you curious to check what is in the box?"
She said as stepping off the bed, she went to take the box before walking back on the side of the man. "Don't mind I was just asking you for the sake. Since you have not opened to check, let show you how right I was about his choice of presents. I am sure it would be yet another expensive gift out of his cupboard." She said as taking his side, she opened the ribbon first to open the box.
But the mont she opened, her expression changed looking at the piece that was tucked elegantly on the velvet sheet. There was a piece of pendant inside that was nowhere close to the na of expensiveness. No diamonds, no pearls. The quality of the piece looks very simple as if it was designed by so rookie jeweler who was not at all skilled in his job.
Confusedly, she turned to look at Feng Shufen. "Did I guess it wrong? Did he really prepare this by himself for ? The design seems to be sothing that he could make." Saying she turned back to look at the pendant.
Taking it out from the box to take a closer look at it and there was not much difference on the closer look as well. It looked more like a seal that was carved and enclosed weirdly over a green jadeite-type stone. Given the involvent of jade, the piece could be considered to be pricey but then again, its expenses could co nowhere near to the gifts she has last received from him.
Feng Shufen stared at the pendant. Sothing in his eyes changed, bringing the sharpness of alertness to it. A layer of fury covering his deanor while his fist curling, realizing what was the pendant about
"Huh? What do you think? Was I rude to not accept his gift? I an this could be called as the first ti he has been thoughtful for considering the emotions while presenting the gift and not its price". On the side Li Xue suddenly said, snapping Feng Shufen out from his thoughts.
"Huh?" Hearing such a short reply, Li Xue felt a little odd. Turning to him, she was about to ask him when suddenly the call on her phone interrupted her. Keeping the pendant and the box aside, she said, "I will get my phone first."
Then walking back to the bedside, she checked her phone only to find Lin Xinyi's na flashing on the screen. Receiving it to answer, she greeted, "Good morning, Sister Xinyi."
But from the other side instead of greeting ca a question. "Li Xue, last day where were you? And what exactly happened?"
Li Xue was confused for a mont when sothing struck her rembrance. Her eyes grew big as she asked biting gently on her lips, "Sister Xinyi, did sothing happen? There have been so important things that have compelled to make a bit change in my yesterday's plan."
She asked and from the other side heard a stressful sigh of the woman. Feeling a little guilty, she asked again, "Sister Xinyi, is there a problem? Did I …"
"You can check on the internet to know".. Lin Xinyi said and at that very mont, Li Xue sprinted over to reach Feng Shufen's phone to check.
