Chapter 106 - Yan Shen's Small Gift

“This is for you.”

Yan Shen held the slightly exquisite gift-wrapped box and handed it to Chu Ning.

“Thank you. I already bought it yesterday. I guarantee that I won’t embarrass you when I partner you.”

Chu Ning did not reach out to take it. She was not that hard up.

“What do you think is inside?” Yan Shen suddenly asked.

“Isn’t it an evening gown?”

Chu Ning was a little surprised. The packaging looked like it was for clothes.

“It’s not. In terms of clothes, you actually have your own preferences. As long as it’s appropriate, it’s fine. This is a set of cosmetics. Please take it.”

Yan Shen looked at Chu Ning, paused for a moment and continued, “It isn’t expensive. I know you made a lot of money through tutoring, so this is nothing to you.”

“Alright.”

Chu Ning nodded. She did not expect Yan Shen to have such a clear mind that he would actually think of giving her a set of cosmetics…

“Then I’ll accept it. I’ll return the favor when I have the chance in future.” Saying that, Chu Ning turned around and left. She did not invite Yan Shen to her house for a visit. She felt that it was completely unnecessary.

In fact, Yan Shen had already prepared this set of cosmetics for Chu Ning a long time ago, but he had never had a suitable opportunity to give it to her.

In his heart, he always wanted to use all kinds of methods to compensate Chu Ning. Originally, there was a good opportunity today, but he had had something on at noon and missed it. By the time he had found out, the matter had already been settled.

Yan Shen watched Chu Ning walk further and further away with a blank expression. Only after she disappeared did he get into his private car and leave.

Chu Ning’s thoughts were not that complicated. She would not normally reject the kindness of others. If it had been another classmate who had given her something, even if it was a hairpin, she would have gladly accepted it. The next time, she would just find an opportunity to return it. She was not the kind of person with a standoffish personality.

Today, it was very quiet in the Chu household. Their parents had not gotten off from work and Chu Zhuo had gone back to school. Meanwhile, Chu Huan was still doing odd jobs outside at this time. Only second brother, Chu Jing, was left at home.

After Chu Ning returned, Chu Jing habitually walked out of his room to see who it was. When his gaze landed on the cosmetics in Chu Ning’s hands, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.

“Xiao Ning is back. There’s only the two of us left at home again,” Second Brother said with a smile.

“Yeah, I wonder when our family will truly be reunited.” Chu Ning sighed and casually placed the cosmetic gift box on the table.
