Two women walked past Ji Xiaonuan side by side. One of them said happily, "Look, this is what my boyfriend gave me!"
"Your boyfriend is so thoughtful," the other woman said.
The previous woman continued happily, "He was afraid that I wouldn't accept it, so he specifically picked something I liked..."
The two women walked into the restroom, and their conversation gradually faded away.
Ji Xiaonuan looked at herself in the mirror and suddenly thought of something.
Could it be...
She felt a bit embarrassed.
When she returned to the private room, the four of them were still playing cards.
Ji Xiaonuan sat down beside Chi Jun'an. He asked gently, "Do you still want to play?"
"No," Ji Xiaonuan shook her head. "It's not interesting anymore."
The three men couldn't help but cough.
Fu Chenghao fanned the flames on the side. "Sister-in-law won too easily. How about I give up my seat and let the two of you play a few hands to see who can win?"
"There's no need to compare that," Ji Xiaonuan said.
"Sister-in-law, you're so confident?" Fu Chenghao was surprised. "Muchen is really good at playing mahjong. Are you sure you can beat him?"
"Of course," Ji Xiaonuan said firmly. Then she turned to look at Chi Jun'an. "Does he dare to win against me?"
"I don't dare," Chi Jun'an smiled faintly and replied cooperatively.
The three men coughed again. An Ziyu couldn't help but sneer, "A henpecked husband."
"I'm happy to be one," Chi Jun'an looked at him indifferently. "You want to be one too, but do you have a girlfriend?"
"Cough, cough. I feel like I've been hit by ten thousand points of damage," An Ziyu exaggeratedly covered his chest.
Fu Chenghao and Zhou Kainan also looked a bit resentful. "We should have known better than to call you two. We've been fed so much 'dog food'!"
Ji Xiaonuan felt a bit embarrassed. Although she was happy to show affection like this, she was also a bit shy.
"Then how about we play something else?" Chi Jun'an looked at Ji Xiaonuan.
"What do you want to play?" she asked.
"There's a bowling alley, a billiard room, and a gym downstairs. It's very complete," Chi Jun'an introduced.
Ji Xiaonuan's eyes lit up, and she nodded in agreement.
The group went downstairs together. Chi Jun'an and Ji Xiaonuan still kept showing affection.
An Ziyu and the others couldn't take it anymore and discussed going back together.
Ji Xiaonuan was a bit tired. She ordered a drink from the bar. Seeing that they wanted to leave, she quickly stopped An Ziyu.
"Xiaoxi, what's wrong?" An Ziyu asked.
"I have something I want to ask you alone," Ji Xiaonuan pulled An Ziyu to a nearby corner.
An Ziyu felt a bit embarrassed, but he said with a playful smile, "Xiaoxi, don't tell me you've finally realized how great I am and are going to abandon Chi Jun'an and choose me? You have good taste!"
"What are you talking about?" Ji Xiaonuan said angrily. She looked in Chi Jun'an's direction to make sure he couldn't hear them. Then she lowered her voice and asked, "What kind of car is yours?"
"It's a Porsche," An Ziyu clicked his tongue. "I just bought it a few days ago and only drove it once. I didn't expect to give it to you... But since I lost it to you, it's yours. Don't say anything about giving it back to me."
Ji Xiaonuan frowned even more, and her suspicion in her heart became more certain. She continued to ask, "If you gave me the car, how are you going to get back?"
"That's easy. I've already asked my driver to bring my other car here," An Ziyu replied. "Why are you asking this all of a sudden? Are you so concerned about me?"
"Hehe, just asking casually," Ji Xiaonuan said indifferently. "It's okay. Let's go."
An Ziyu looked at Ji Xiaonuan in surprise. Did she just ask such a question? Why did he think Ji Xiaonuan was acting strange?
Not being able to figure it out, An Ziyu left with Zhou Kainan and the others.
"Let's go back too," Ji Xiaonuan returned to Chi Jun'an's side and said calmly.
She was a bit tired.
"Okay," Chi Jun'an agreed, and his eyes darkened a bit.
Just now, he saw everything when Ji Xiaonuan whispered with An Ziyu.
Although he trusted Ji Xiaonuan, he still felt a bit jealous.
The two went downstairs. Chi Jun'an gave the car key that Ji Xiaonuan won to the driver. "Drive this car back."
"Okay," the driver agreed, took the key, and drove the brand-new Porsche away.
Chi Jun'an opened the car door for Ji Xiaonuan. "Come on, I'll drive."
Ji Xiaonuan nodded and sat in the passenger seat.
She fastened her seat belt, and Chi Jun'an sat in as well.
The car started. Chi Jun'an's fingers tapped on the steering wheel. He asked casually, as if it didn't matter, "What did you talk about with Ziyu just now?"
Do you want to know?" Ji Xiaonuan looked at him.
"..." Chi Jun'an was a bit surprised in his heart. Ji Xiaonuan seemed a bit different.
"He told me everything," she looked ahead, looking serious.
"Hm?" He raised his eyebrows, and his heart skipped a beat.
Ji Xiaonuan's eyes flickered. "He said that the Porsche I won from him was actually something you prepared for me..."
"I knew he couldn't be trusted. No, that's not right..." Chi Jun'an suddenly stepped on the brake. He looked at Ji Xiaonuan in surprise. "Ziyu isn't that unreliable. He wouldn't sell me out so quickly."
"So it's true?" Ji Xiaonuan's eyes flickered.
"Yeah," Chi Jun'an smiled bitterly. "How did you guess it?"
"If An Ziyu really lost a car to me, you would definitely find a way to help me decline it, right?" Ji Xiaonuan explained. "You're actually quite jealous. That's when I felt something was wrong."
"That makes sense," Chi Jun'an nodded.
"And also," Ji Xiaonuan continued. "Why do you always give me things so secretly..."
"I want to give you things openly, but would you accept them?" Chi Jun'an said with a wry smile.
Ji Xiaonuan was stunned for a moment. The next moment, she shook her head. "The things you give me are too expensive."
"Ji Xiaonuan, the value of a gift isn't determined by its price, but by the economic ability of the person giving it," Chi Jun'an simply parked the car on the side of the road. "What I give you is far less valuable than that tie clip you gave me."
"How is that possible?" Ji Xiaonuan looked at him in surprise.
"You spent all your pocket money on that tie clip, right?" Chi Jun'an said indifferently.
"Um..." Ji Xiaonuan blushed slightly. He was telling the truth.
"These gifts I give you mean nothing to me," Chi Jun'an looked at her tenderly. "Besides, I like you, so I want to give you the best."
Ji Xiaonuan felt her heart pounding.
"Okay, you've convinced me," Ji Xiaonuan let out a long sigh.
"Does that mean I can give you gifts openly in the future?" He leaned in and touched his forehead to hers affectionately, asking gently.
