"See you later!"
Putting away her phone, Ning Zhiqiu turned around and strode towards the exit.
"Hurry up, call the driver right away and take me to Lanting Apartment."
He gave orders along the way.
The assistant was busy on the phone. Before the call was hung up, Ning Zhiqiu turned around again.
"You said... should I bring any gifts?" Without waiting for the assistant to sign back, he made his own decision, "I will definitely bring it, but... what should I bring?" At this point, Ning Zhiqiu raised his palm and patted it. On his forehead, he blamed himself, "I'm so stupid. I've seen her so many times and yet I haven't been able to buy her a gift. How can I be a father like this?!"
In fact, it wasn't that he hadn't thought about it, but he had been worried that Ning Xiaofei wouldn't accept it, so he didn't dare to buy a gift. First, he was afraid of embarrassing her, and he was also afraid of being disappointed.
After rushing out of the airport and sitting in the car driven back by the driver, Ning Zhiqiu immediately gave the order.
"Go to the mall, I'm going to buy some gifts for her."
The car returned to the city and stopped at a large shopping mall. Ning Zhiqiu went from the first floor to the sixth floor, and visited the women's clothing, jewelry store, children's clothing department, toy store... shopping along the way.
Two hours later, when he finally stood downstairs at Ning Xiaofei's house and rang the intercom doorbell, he felt uneasy again.
Ning Xiaofei took the initiative to open the door for him, and when he took the elevator upstairs, she was already waiting outside the elevator door.
The elevator opened, revealing the figure of a man.
The man, nearly fifty years old, was holding a pink teddy bear as tall as a person in one hand, and in the other hand was a bag of snacks bought from the supermarket.
Behind him stood the assistant and the driver, one on the left and the other on the right. Both of them were carrying or carrying large and small bags in their hands.
From women's clothing to jewelry, from crafts to fruits, and even a big bouquet of flowers...
Ning Xiaofei couldn't help but be stunned when she saw these three people in the elevator.
"You... this is?!"
"I... I don't know what you like, so..." Ning Zhiqiu hugged the big bear, a little embarrassed, "If you don't like it, I will let them take it away immediately!"
Just as he said that, the elevator door closed automatically.
While Guang was talking, he was still in the elevator and didn't come out.
Ning Xiaofei was busy blocking the elevator door with her hands, and Ning Zhiqiu also stretched out her arm holding the bear. The elevator door opened again, and Ning Xiaofei stretched out her arms to take the big bear that was as tall as a person in his hand.
"This way!"
After bringing the three of them back to the apartment, Mrs. Liu came out to welcome them. She was startled when she saw the driver and assistant carrying all their bags, and she hurriedly took the things and put them away.
Ning Xiaofei let Ning Zhiqiu sit on the sofa, and the assistant did not come in knowingly. She turned around and left with the driver. Mrs. Liu served tea and returned to the kitchen to prepare lunch.
Ning Xiaofei plucked the super bear's long eyelashes with her fingers and suddenly smiled.
"Speaking of which, I really wanted this bear when I was a kid!"
However, at that time, my mother was making money alone and the family was not well off, so she was naturally embarrassed to mention it.
Opposite me, Ning Zhiqiu's hand holding the cup sank.
"sorry!"
"I didn't mean that." Ning Xiaofei put down the bear in her hand, "Wait a minute, I'll get you something!"
Turning around and going upstairs, she came back a moment later, already holding the photo album in her hand, and gently pushed it to him.
"This... I think mom left it for you."
Ning Zhiqiu took the photo album, and Ning Xiaofei did not insert the photo in it back into the original place, but just sandwiched it in the album. He did not expect this. Inadvertently, a photo slipped down, revealing the writing on the back.
