After a while, ye zhiqiao came out with a dark blue box and handed it to yi chen with both hands.
Yi chen took the box with a smile and looked at it carefully. He asked politely, "What is it? Can you open it now?"
Ye zhiqiao made a "Please" gesture, tilted her head and smiled, "Of course."
Yi chen held the bottom of the box with one hand and slowly opened the lid with the other.
Inside the box lay a small piece of blue satin cloth. On top of the cloth was a five-inch photo frame, and the photo above was of him, or more accurately, his portrait.
Ye zhiqiao explained at the right time, "Originally, I wanted to give you the original print, but the paper was too big, so I always felt a little strange, so I asked professional staff to shrink it into the size of a photo, and it can also be used as an ornament, but... Compared to other gifts you received, it may not be expensive."
Indeed, with yi chen's family background and identity, his friends must have racked their brains thinking about gifts on his birthday. I heard that a few years ago, someone gave him a maybach s600. Recently, he began to contact the family business, in addition to familiar friends, people who are interested in working with the yi family also want to take advantage of this opportunity to be nice to him, so the level of gifts he received today is self-evident.
However, no matter how expensive and novel the gifts were, in the eyes of yi chen, there was no one comparable to ye zhiqiao.
"Who said it wasn't expensive?" Yi chen held the photo frame in his hand and stared at it for a long time. He said to ye zhiqiao cheaply, "This is the designer's' wake up' handwriting. Even the leaves on his collar can be seen! Not to mention that this painting is already very valuable, I'm sure there will be more room for appreciation in the future."
Ye zhiqiao was stunned by his praise. In fact, she really couldn't think of anything that could be given to her before she had to use her old skills. She didn't expect that yi chen not only didn't dislike it, but also gave such a high evaluation.
"Is it really that good?" Ye zhiqiao lowered her head modestly.
Yi chen nodded hard, reluctant to put down the photo frame in his hand, "Of course, you don't know, actually what I look forward to most is..."
In the middle of the conversation, he seemed to realize that he had overstepped his distance. After all, gu mohan was still around. Subconsciously, he turned to look at gu Mohan, who had already darkened his face. His dark eyes were fixed on ye zhiqiao, who was chatting and laughing with him.
Yi chen suddenly stopped talking. Ye zhiqiao also felt that the atmosphere was not right. She followed his gaze and bumped into gu mohan's. A message was clearly revealed in her dark eyes, "I'm very unhappy."
The scene fell silent for a moment, and ye zhiqiao and yi chen, whose smiles were still stiff on their faces, were both embarrassed.
But yi chen didn't want any misunderstanding between ye zhiqiao and gu mohan, so he straightened up his mood and smiled again. Shaking the photo frame in his hand, he said to ye zhiqiao, "I'll put away the gift. En... They might drink me later, so I'll go back to the cabin to catch up on my sleep. The air here is good. You can blow the wind."
Ye zhiqiao thanked him in her heart for his understanding and nodded, "Yes, you have a good rest."
"No more interruptions." Yi chen nodded slightly and quickly turned away.
"He's gone, and he's ignoring me?" Gu mohan came to ye zhiqiao's side and tucked her windblown hair behind her ears, asking half-truthfully.
Ye zhiqiao tilted her head to avoid his movements. After a while, she sighed, "We are friends. Since we agreed to come, I hope you... Can... Don't be so suspicious."
"What happened to me?" Gu mohan encircled her from the side and rested an arm on the railing. He leaned over to her ear and said, "I have no doubts. You don't like him. I won't be jealous of him. But the picture you gave him has never been given to your boyfriend."
"So you're not angry, but jealous?" Ye zhiqiao looked at him calmly.
Gu mohan frowned imperceptibly, his adam's apple rolling and he replied, "Sort of." Then he asked, "If I was jealous, would you give me a gift?"
Ye zhiqiao could not tell what was in his tone, but it sounded uncomfortable. Not only now, his attitude was a little strange since yesterday afternoon. Although he was still considerate, his smile was always a little forced.
She knew that this might have something to do with her rejecting his proposal to get married yesterday, so she tried her best to hold back and wait for him to get there.
"Okay." Ye zhiqiao turned her head and looked at the island in the distance. She let the sea breeze blow her hair and replied lightly, "I'll give it to you too."
At this time, on the island.
Yi shaozhi, a gentleman, held su yanbai's hand and said softly as he got off the boat, "Be careful, it might be a little slippery here."
"President yi is really conscious of his master. He is very considerate." Su yanbai's tone was still lukewarm and did not give yi shaozhi any face.
Yi shaozhi was not angry when he was rebutted in front of his own waiters and bodyguards. He still took good care of him. After getting off the boat, he approached su yanbai and whispered, "Yan yan, we agreed to cooperate, but don't forget."
"I didn't say I was going back on my word!" Su yanbai angrily shook off his hand and said with a shudder of disgust, "But since you know it's a cooperation, can you stop taking advantage of me? I told you, the reason I agreed to cooperate is because I can't stand ye zhiqiao trying to teach her a lesson. It has nothing to do with you."
Yes, a few days before yi chen's birthday party, yi shaozhi took the initiative to find su yanbai, invite her to the party and cooperate with him.
And su yanbai agreed, mainly to take advantage of the opportunity to deal with ye zhiqiao, but in addition, in fact, su yanbai still some of the old feelings between yi shao and her. Although they had never officially announced their relationship before, they did have a relationship, or maybe an affair. Su yanbai thought highly of herself and despised yi shaozhi, but yi shaozhi's gentleness and gentleness allowed her to enjoy it. After separating, she had a few more relationships, and she thought more of the benefits of yi shaozhi.
Sure enough, as she expected, not only was yi shaozhi not angry at her words, but he smiled magnanimously and said, "I understand all of this. I won't misunderstand. I only cared about you because I wanted to. I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable."
Su yanbai pursed her lips and was too lazy to tell if he was a real gentleman or a fake villain.
In silence, the sound of an engine suddenly appeared behind them. The two of them looked back together and saw a row of three people getting off the boat in turn.
