Chapter 184: Receiving Gifts (Part 2)

Zhao Qingfeng accepted graciously.

Because it could make Liu Meng feel a bit better.

At six in the evening,

Zhao Qingfeng made a round at Erlunsi before driving back to the county.

Although working with Cai Shuwen on coding at the company could speed up software development, he still couldn’t stop thinking about Shen Lingyao.

Let it be a bit of a hassle, since he missed her so much.

Shen Lingyao also missed Zhao Qingfeng every moment.

She felt restless at home, unable to take interest in anything.

She was eager for school to start.

So that the two could walk together every day, study together, enjoy sweet moments under the moonlight and flowers.

At this moment,

She was sitting quietly in the study.

Her small hands holding a shiny silver object, a happy smile on her lips.

“Yaoyao, what are you looking at?”

Ding Xiang entered to bring some fruit.

“Ah!”

Shen Lingyao was startled, her hands loosened, and a shiny men’s watch fell onto her lap.

Ding Xiang picked it up and examined it.

It was a no-name brand watch.

Earlier that day, while shopping,

She had seen it at a watch counter in the trade city, priced at 999 yuan.

It all made sense now.

No wonder her daughter lingered so long in front of the watch counter, she was secretly buying a gift for Little Feng.

This girl.

Shen Kuo had just given her 1000 yuan in pocket money, and she didn’t keep a single cent for herself.

“For Little Feng?”

Ding Xiang smiled and handed the watch back to Shen Lingyao.

“Not at all!”

Shen Lingyao turned her head to one side, her eyebrows proudly raised in a tsundere manner.

“Still lying to your mom.”

Ding Xiang playfully raised her eyebrows, laughing, “You, you’ve been with Little Feng for so long, you’ve even picked up his habits. Look at how you raised your eyebrows just now, exactly like his expression. Do you know what this is called? Like husband like wife!”

“ヾ(?д?)? Mom, stop talking nonsense!”

“ヾ(?????) Yaoyao, go for it, mom will always support you!”

After speaking,

Ding Xiang left the room.

At the same time,

Zhao Qingfeng also knocked on the door.

Ding Xiang pulled him over, smiling gently, “Little Feng, go to the study, Yaoyao bought you a gift, a watch!”

Zhao Qingfeng was overjoyed.

The value of the gift was not important; it was the love that mattered.

He hurriedly took off the Rolex that Li Jianjun had given him in the afternoon and tucked it into his pocket, barging into the study.

After putting down two bags of snacks, he snatched the watch, trying it on his left wrist, then his right, and even considered wearing it around his neck, jumping around in excitement.

His excitement had a reason.

He remembered attending weddings with Shen Lingyao and the adults when they were kids. In Northern weddings, there’s a segment where the bride gives the groom a watch. Shen Lingyao, who liked playing the bride since childhood, even drew a watch on a Brother Qingfeng during their playtime.

But the watch back then didn’t actually work, and Zhao Qingfeng had even cried over it, shamefully.

Back then, Shen Lingyao, Like a little wife, comforted him in her baby voice,

Saying that when they grew up, she would definitely buy him a real watch and put it on him at their wedding.

The ‘playful words’ of their childhood had now come true, at least halfway!

The rest could wait.

Zhao Qingfeng wanted to joke around with Shen Lingyao when Shen Kuo rushed back home, seemingly in a hurry.

He stormed into the house, his expression somewhat panicked.

Zhao Qingfeng asked what was wrong, but he didn’t say.

He just pulled Ding Xiang, hurriedly went back to their bedroom, and firmly closed the door.
