Chapter 222 Choose a Gift
"Don't be happy too early. Uncle Chen may not rent the villa to us." Guo Zhixuan suddenly poured cold water.
"Hey hey, as long as Yaoyao opens her mouth, it will work more than I asked for a hundred times." Chen Jie's face was full of confidence. He knew the weight of his sister in his parents' minds. Chen Shiyao has never asked for anything, and she doesn't need to be coquettish at all to get the greatest support.
In everyone's eyes, she has always been a good girl, and Chen Jie's words did not arouse everyone's suspicion. Nevertheless, the demon was still a little worried that Chen Jie's parents would blame her after knowing the truth of the matter, and asked carefully:
"Is it really okay? I think it's better for your brother to talk about this kind of thing.
"Demon, are you trying to push me into the fire pit? It's not that you don't know the situation between Yaoyao and me. If I bring it up, maybe they will oppose it." Chen Jie put on a bitter gourd face.
"Who told you to be idle and waste your studies?" The demon stared at him an angry look.
Chen Shiyao knew that her parents were strict with her brother and didn't want to see him and was scolded. At the same time, she also hoped that the studio could live in Xuelin Villa smoothly and get along with Yanfeng day and night. She said softly:
"Let me talk about it."
"It's really my good sister." Chen Jie breathed a sigh of relief.
After the discussion, half of the people had a lecture in the afternoon, and the party broke up. After being delayed all morning, Yan Feng planned to enter the artificial forest to start today's practice, but was pulled by Chen Jie:
"A Feng, go out with me."
"I have something else to do. You can go by yourself." Yan Feng refused directly.
"A Feng, what's the big deal if you come to Xinzhou alone? Today, you can accompany me to the business district to buy something." Chen Jie showed an expression of pleading.
"Two big men go shopping together..."
Yanfeng frowned and said, "Why don't you find a demon to accompany you?"
"I'm not going to buy her a gift. I want to surprise her when I move to the villa. As you know, I'm not very good at dating..." Chen Jie trusts Yan Feng's character and doesn't intend to hide his feelings for demons.
On the surface, he looks romantic and unrestrained, and his words and deeds are free and easy. In fact, he has always maintained the simplicity of a childhood in the mainland, and he has a special preference for demons he has known for many years. Although there have been many girls who show their love to him because of their family relationship, he has never responded, and he has been in the stage of secret love.
"You're not good at it. Am I a master of love?" Yan Feng was speechless for a moment. Seeing that he had repeated solemn invitations, he had to nod and agree.
The Baocheng business district closest to Nandu University is the largest commercial area in Nandu City. Most of them consume high-end products and are also well-known in China, especially brand clothing, jewelry and other luxury goods. Even big cities such as the capital are inferior. There are countless famous brands of all over the world, large and small. The main store of Wanbaotang, the largest luxury jewelry design company in the continent, is set up there. Therefore, the name of "Baocheng" is true.
After visiting a few commercial streets and looking at various brand trademarks, Chen Jie was also a little dazzled. He turned around and asked Yan Feng, "What do you think is the best gift for girls?"
Yan Feng: "You should ask the demons directly about this."
"I've asked a long time ago if you can ask me. I bought a gift for the demon. Naturally, I can't ask her. Liu Ruoxuan is too gossipy. After knowing it, she must tell the demon as soon as possible. Shanshan has a simple personality and her mind is different from other girls..." Chen Jie looked helpless.
Yan Feng heard him say that he missed a person and said, "Aren't you still able to ask your sister?"
"Hey hey, it will be Yaoyao's birthday in a few days. You should buy some gifts, right?" A cunning smile appeared on Chen Jie's face.
Yan Feng was stunned, and then he understood why he insisted on pulling himself over. It turned out that he had been "premeditated" for a long time. However, since he had opened his mouth, Yan Feng was always embarrassed to refuse. He hesitated for a while and said helplessly:
"I don't know what to buy."
"No way? Haven't you ever been in love?" Seeing his embarrassed expression, Chen Jie was first full of disappointment, and then couldn't help but be secretly happy: "It turns out that A Feng has been a bachelor for 20 years like me. Yaoyao's eyes are really good. It should not be difficult to match them..."
Chen Jie calculated his "sister-in-law's big plan" in his heart. He didn't stop until he walked to a large jewelry store. Looking at the exquisite and unique jewelry in the glass window, Chong Yanfeng said:
"Go in and have a look."
"Welcome!" Two beautiful waitresses with light makeup at the door smiled sweetly, and one of them led Yan Chen to the counter.
"Sirs, what kind of jewelry do you need to buy?" The waitress in charge of the introduction neatly put the two product drawing records in front of them.
Chen Jie looked at the dazzling array of accessories on the image of the record board and looked at Yan Feng from time to time. Seeing him looking at the picture above calmly, he said vaguely for a long time:
"That...Miss, we want to give a gift to our classmates. What should we choose?"
Looking at his nervous expression, Yan Feng almost laughed. Unexpectedly, he would blush when he bought a gift for a girl. No wonder he pulled himself to choose together. The waitress in front of the cabinet was also old-fashioned. Hearing his stammer and shy expression, she had guessed it. She smiled secretly and said with a bright smile on her face:
"Gift-giving also varies from person to person. I don't know what kind of person my husband's classmates are?"
Chen Jie thought for a while and replied seriously, "They are all... beautiful, very pleasant, very..."
He has always spoken fluently and clearly semantically, but this time he lost his level because he was too nervous. Yan Feng shook his head and sighed and answered, "The two girls are beautiful and touching. One is intellectual and serious, and the other is gentle and quiet. Neither of them likes makeup very much. You can choose some elegant and delicate accessories for us to show us. Let's go.
"Okay." The waitress said and quickly turned over the record board, and from time to time, she tapped her little finger on it.
At this time, Chen Jie suddenly thought about the meaning of Yanfeng's words and muttered, "It's beautiful and touching... The demon is intellectual, serious, Yaoyao is gentle and quiet... This description is really appropriate..."
Seeing that he had been stunned, Yanfeng gently hit him with his elbow and pointed to the record board to remind him:
"Take a look. Maybe there is a suitable one."
"Oh, okay." Chen Jie came to his senses, and his serious expression like choosing an engagement ring made the two waitresses next to him couldn't help bowing their heads and laughing.
Yanfeng slightly browsed the sample picture on the recording board, then glanced at the exquisite jewelry on the glass cabinet around, and finally locked a platinum sapphire necklace called "Quiet Snowy Night" in the innermost VIP counter. Unlike the rest of the jewelry, the necklace is simple, light, and the pendant is sapphire. It is polished into a snowflake, with a crystal clear luster, and there is no mysterious elegance of ice and snow.
The waitress next to him saw him approaching the VIP counter and smiled:
"Sir, you have a good vision. These jewelry are the works of master designers, which are basically unique."
"Master designer?" Hearing this, Chen Jie quickly put down the record board and came over and said curiously, "A Feng, what kind of jewelry do you like?"
"I think this necklace is very good." Yan Feng pointed to the platinum sapphire necklace and said.
"A quiet snowy night, designer Yuan Qingping... It's quite beautiful, but why is there no price?" Chen Jie couldn't help but be a little puzzled when he saw that there was only the necklace and the designer's name on the introduction board, and there was no commodity price.
"This is a VIP counter jewelry, which is the responsibility of a special quotation specialist. If there is any jewelry you like, we can contact you immediately." The waitress explained.
"It seems that it's not cheap, is it? Forget it, for the sake of Yaoyao, save some money in the future. Anyway, the studio can make some money now.
Chen Jie knew that Yan Feng usually saved money, so he planned to buy a birthday gift for Chen Shiyao for him at the beginning. He gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind and said, "That's it."
The waitress hesitated for a moment and pointed to a necklace with a beautiful ruby embedded in the pendant next to her and said, "Ruby is a symbol of love and brilliance. This 'burning enthusiasm' is more suitable for your girlfriend."
"Well..." Chen Jie looked at Yan Feng and saw that he was indifferent. He pointed to the two necklaces and said, "Let's do those two together."
"Okay!" The waitress nodded happily and turned around and walked quickly to the counter.
Soon, the counter waitress came over with the price list and smiled:
"Hello, sir, the price of this 'quiet snowy night' is 1.02 million, while the price of this 'love burning' is 2.15 million, a total of 3.17 million."
"How much?" Chen Jie's face was stunned and his mouth was round. He thought that although the jewelry here was expensive, it should not exceed 500,000 yuan, and 1 million yuan in the gold card was enough to pay, but he didn't expect that he couldn't even afford the "quiet snowy night" of Yanfeng.
"A total of 3.17 million," the waitress at the counter seemed to be surprised by the price when she saw him, and then said, "Sir, you have also seen that these two accessories are the works of Yuan Qingping's design master. The selected are all good gems, and the prices are in line with international standards. Of course, if you have our Wanbaotang VIP card, we can still get a 9.8 percent discount.
Jewelry, which is a luxury consumer, is generally for the rich, and the 0.2 discount is only symbolic, which is insignificant in the eyes of the rich. Yan Feng felt that both necklaces were good and readily took out the gold card: "Just these two."
The waitress at the counter just wanted to take it, but was stopped by Chen Jie. After hearing her last words, Chen Jie's face turned gloomy: "Is this the branch of Wanbaotang?"
The waitress at the counter was stunned and then nodded and said, "Yes, sir, except for Marlbaotang, other jewelers in Nandu can't have such a good jewelry style."
"It turned out to be the garbage hall where the stinky fly opened. A Feng, let's go." Chen Jie said and pulled Yanfeng directly to the door, noting the two local waitresses in a daze.
Looking up at the three words "Wanbaotang" on the sign, Chen Jie remembered the arrogant appearance of Zeng Guofu in the auction house that day, so he couldn't help "pooh" and scolded, "No matter how good your things are, I won't buy them!"
In the jewelry store, the waitress who received Yan Chen left without looking back. She muttered contemptuously, "If you think it's expensive and can't afford it, just say it. She also said that our store is garbage. Who doesn't know that Wanbaotang is a world-class jewelry design company? The poor man pretended to be rich, and maybe his girlfriend was also deceived.
The waitress at the counter shook her head and said, "The handsome gentleman next to him has a unique vision and is very straightforward. He doesn't look like he can't afford it. Maybe they really have any preconceived views on Marlboro Hall..."
