Gift

Chen Yan said to Yu Qiaoqiao, "Qiaoqiao. I'm really sorry for what happened the other day."

"I invited everyone to dinner today. I didn't prepare any special gifts."

"Only the few pens I bought before."

"I will give it to you now."

"You give these pens to your roommates, it's an expression of my apologies."

"I hope everyone will not dislike it."

"It should be good for writing and note taking."

Seeing Chen Yan coming over just now, the eyes of several girls couldn't help but fall on Chen Yan.

Now hearing Chen Yan say this, several girls suddenly looked at the pen in Chen Yan's hand curiously.

As soon as they saw it, they suddenly became less interested because the black pen was wrapped in ribbons of different colors, and looked too ugly.

However, Yu Qiaoqiao didn't dislike the pen.

After all, she hasn't paid off the gifts and things that Chen Yan gave before, and she doesn't want to accept Chen Yan's gifts anymore.

So she opened her mouth and wanted to refuse.

But, Chen Yan didn't allow her to refuse at all, and put it directly into her hands. 

Then... took out a beautiful box from his pocket.

As soon as the box was taken out, it immediately attracted everyone's attention again.

Because the box is not only very beautiful, but it also has the logo of [Lu Fo Jewelry] on it.

Lu Fo Jewelry is very famous in China, even a college student has heard of the name of this jewelry brand. They also know that this shop is not cheap whether it is gold, jade, or gems.

Seeing Chen Yan take this out, several girls were a little surprised.

He opened the box, revealing a beautiful colorful gold bracelet inside.

Chen Yan raised his hand containing the colorful gold bracelet and said to Yu Qiaoqiao "affectionately", "Qiaoqiao. In addition to the gift for the whole dormitory, I also prepared an apology gift for you."

"This is the bracelet I specially selected these days."

"It is said to be a new style this year, I hope you like it."

Hearing Chen Yan's words, Yu Qiaoqiao's hand seemed to be scalded as she tried to quickly retract it.

She waved her hands and immediately said, "No way..no way! This really can’t work."

Chen Yan spoke seriously: "Coincidentally, I don't mean anything else. I just want to apologize to you."

He paused, and added, "And...this is really not expensive."

Not expensive, compared to pens, it is super cheap.

But, Yu Qiaoqiao was completely shocked by Chen Yan's view of an expensive gift.

She looked at Yang Nuan for help, and wanted the big sister of the dormitory to help her out.

Yang Nuan saw Yu Qiaoqiao's gaze and took the initiative to stand up and say, "Chen Yan, this gift is too expensive, Qiaoqiao can't accept it."

After she explained with various reasons, such as:

"With such an expensive gift, girls will only feel stressed, not happy."

"The two are only acquaintances, so receiving such an expensive gift, the relationship will deteriorate." And so on.

Originally, Yang Nuan was ready to have a debate with Chen Yan, but after just explaining a few words, he unexpectedly agreed.

"Ok..."

"I think what you said makes sense."

"Maybe, I was really too abrupt."

After speaking, Chen Yan pondered for a moment and said,

"I won't give you the necklace. But keep the pen."

"This is not expensive. You usually do homework or something, and it just happens to be usable."

Hearing that Chen Yan would not give the necklace, Yu Qiaoqiao suddenly felt her heart lighten a bit.

But, to not accept the necklace, and take the pens is still not so good.

Yu Qiaoqiao is still a bit hesitant.

Chen Yan said with a sad gaze upon seeing this, "I have carefully prepared two gifts. You won't accept either of them?"

"And, that's an apology gift for your entire dormitory."

When Chen Yan said so, Yu Qiaoqiao hesitated even more.

Indeed, as Chen Yan said, neither of the two gifts is accepted, which is indeed a bit rude.

Not to mention when she looked down at the pen in her hand. The appearance does not appear to be particularly valuable.

And it’s for everyone in the dormitory, it’s not good to refuse it alone.

Thinking so, she reluctantly said, "Okay..."

"The pen, I will accept it."

"But..." She looked at Chen Yan and said with complicated eyes, "You really don't want to give me gifts anymore."

"In this way, I am really stressed."

Hearing Yu Qiaoqiao's agreement, Chen Yan also felt relief in his heart.

With a smile on his face, he said, "Don't worry. It won't happen."

Not tonight, in any case.

Hearing Chen Yan's promise, Yu Qiaoqiao's expression finally eased slightly.

In front of Chen Yan, she handed out the pens to the little sisters one by one.

The little sisters didn't care about this pen, and after holding it for a while, they put it in their own bags.

Yang Nuan seemed to be particularly concerned about this pen.

She doesn't know why but, she felt that this pen is not as simple as it seems.

She started to think a little, and then looked carefully, she found that the workmanship was very delicate.

This made her feel that the value of this pen may not be as ordinary as it looks.

And, just after searching the pen's whole body, she didn't see any logo or symbols.

It’s inconspicuous as just a brand-name fountain pen.

This made her doubt her own judgment for a while.

Maybe... I think too much?

With doubts, she raised her head. Just about to put this question in her heart for the time being, suddenly, she remembered the details she had discovered before.

In the past two days, she has checked this store.

It was said that traffic (customers) is good.

But, how come you only have a few guests tonight?

This is too strange.

Thinking about this, she tentatively asked the young lady at the front desk who had been standing by and serving several people, "Hello. I want to ask. Why are there no other guests in the store tonight?.”

The young lady at the front desk was originally watching a few people playing around, and she was a little bored so yawned.

Hearing Yang Nuan’s question, she suddenly became energetic.

Because... She knows the problem!

When Chen Yan came today, he prepared an answer specially for her!

She cleared her throat and was about to open her mouth to explain, but Zhao Ying interjected next to her, "Why? The business is not good. Internet celebrity shops are all hype, not popular."

Yang Nuan: “...”

Front desk lady: “...”

The young lady at the front desk had blue veins on her forehead.

You're not popular. Our shop is very popular, okay!

Chen Yan listened to their conversation and explained with a smile, "Their business is actually pretty good. But today, there are some equipment overhauls and they can't open a large area. So they only received a few tables of guests."

"We also happened to have this good opportunity."

"When we leave, there will be other guests coming."

The young lady at the front desk also explained a few words to the side.

Yang Nuan nodded slightly.

Chen Yan chatted with the little sisters for a while, then found an excuse and went to the bathroom.

Because...

He really can’t wait to go home and look at his wealth value. He wants to see it now!

After such a long toss, whether it is two or three hundred thousand cash back or one million cash back, it depends on this time!
