Xu Lu's words made my heart skip a beat. I couldn't tell whether I was happy or unhappy, but it definitely shook my military morale. Because I finally convinced myself that Luo Xiangdong has a girlfriend and he doesn’t like me, but he is a good friend to me.
But now I'm confused again. Could it be that Luo Xiangdong is really interested in me
I quickly shook my head and denied it out loud: "Don't talk nonsense."
Xu Lu glanced at me meaningfully, then winked and said, "Are you feeling confused again?"
I rolled my eyes 360 degrees in my sockets and replied aloud: "I've thought about it. I'm very satisfied with my current life. I just want to maintain the status quo and don't think too much about it."
People can't be too greedy, otherwise they are likely to lose everything.
When Xu Lu heard this, she replied with amusement: "If I were you, I would also want to maintain the status quo."
I held her arm and walked forward, saying, "Who told you not to study hard when you were in school?"
Xu Lu held back her words and replied: "That's right, I feel so regretful now."
Xu Lu and I took a taxi to a nearby commercial center. This place is surrounded by flagship stores of major brands. The shopping malls are also open until eleven o'clock in the evening, so there is plenty of time for shopping.
I asked Xu Lu: "What do you think would be a good gift for Yi Yang?"
Xu Lu said: "Whatever, whatever you give him, he will treat it as a treasure."
I frowned and said, "Just think about it more carefully."
Xu Lu thought about it for a while, and then said: "Then give him a set of clothes, professional clothes. Anyway, he will graduate in less than half a year, and he will need it for the interview then."
I said, "Then after half a year, won't all the clothes be out of date?"
Xu Lu said: "Please, eldest sister, can you give him cheap goods? Expensive things will never go out of style. The older they get, the more retro they become."
What Xu Lu said was half true and half false, and I thought to myself that I owed Kuang Yiyang thousands of yuan in favor, and now that his salary had just been paid, I might as well give him a set of good professional attire.
While Xu Lu and I were talking, we entered Volentino's Night City main store. The entire store has two floors, with men's clothing downstairs and women's clothing upstairs. The clerk greeted us with a smile and asked us what we needed. I said I wanted to buy men's business attire, and the clerk took us to look at the clothes.
The clothes in this kind of store are never very old-fashioned. Even the professional attire is very fashionable. I immediately fell in love with a slim-fitting dark gray casual suit, which suits Kuang Yiyang very well.
The clerk complimented me on my discernment and said that this set of clothes is a new style for this autumn and winter, and only their main store here has the goods.
I told the clerk Kuang Yiyang's height and approximate weight, and the clerk immediately went to the warehouse and brought me a set of suitable sizes. I asked her to pack it without even looking at the price.
Xu Lu took advantage of the clerk not paying attention and glanced at the prices of the clothes and trousers. Then, without moving her mouth, she whispered to me: "The clothes and trousers add up to more than 30,000 yuan. Are you crazy?"
More than 30,000 yuan is indeed far beyond my budget, but fortunately, the salary is generous and capricious.
I said: "Yi Yang is good to me, and I can't measure it entirely with money. I will give him whatever is expensive if he gives me something expensive. As you said, he is about to graduate, so just treat it as a gift." A decent gift for him.”
Xu Lu curled her lips and replied: "You are driving up prices. How much do I have to give him tomorrow?"
I smiled and replied: "You decide for yourself."
Xu Lu said: "That's right, he doesn't like me."
I immediately glared at her.
Buying a gift for Kuang Yiyang only took half an hour from selection to payment, and I didn't even go to a second store. When Xu Lu and I came out of Volentino, I immediately asked: "What do you think I want to give Luo Xiangdong as a gift?"
Xu Lu said: "Clothes."
I frowned and threatened: "Do you believe that I will tell him later that I won't sign a contract with you?"
Xu Lu immediately looked scared, held my arm, and replied loudly: "Let me think about it carefully..."
After a while, she snapped her fingers: "Yes."
I asked: "What to buy?"
Xu Lu said: "Buy shoes so that he will think of you wherever he goes."
With a black line on my face, I squinted at her and replied aloud: "Then why don't you buy him a watch, so that he can look at you wherever he goes."
Xu Lu pretended to be suddenly enlightened and said: "Okay, but the watch is too expensive. I'm afraid you can't afford it with a month's salary."
I gouged out Xu Lu's eyes fiercely, frowned and said: "You just have a bad idea. How can you give shoes as a gift? We in the north say that we don't give shoes as a gift. Shoes have the same sound as 'evil', which is unlucky."
Xu Lu said: "Then what do you want to give?"
After all, I still have to think about it myself.
We were thinking about it while we were shopping. Many things came to my mind, but in the end they all felt inappropriate. Until a couple walked past us. The woman held a wallet in her hand and said to the man next to her with a smile: " When you go home at night, put my photo in it. When you get money from now on, you will think of me, especially if you don’t spend money on other women, do you hear me?”
The man replied helplessly: "You have spent all my money, how can anyone else get a share?"
wallet!
How could I have forgotten this wonderful gift
I dragged Xu Lu to the nearest Gucci store, but there was no men's wallet that suited my taste, so we went to places like LV and Prada, and finally picked a men's wallet that I liked in Hermes.
Very simple style, pure black, with only an 'h' logo printed on the edge.
I saw the price on the sign was more than 15,000, which is considered to be the mid-range price among this brand. I can give it to Luo Xiangdong and he can use it. .
I swiped my card to pay the bill, and I walked out of the Hermes store satisfied. Seeing my happy smile, Xu Lu couldn't help but tease: "You spent fifty or sixty thousand in one night, do you feel comfortable?"
I replied smoothly: "Yes, Beier is comfortable."
I used to hear people say that rich people spend money to relieve stress. I didn't realize it before. Although I am not considered a rich person now, at my level, I can still be considered a 'spend money'. .
I had a meal with Xu Lu in the evening. Since it takes more than an hour to get back to the new district from the city, I didn't dare to delay her too much. I sent her to the car early and took a taxi to the apartment.
When I got home, I had a video chat with my mother as usual, telling the whole family the good news of a six-figure salary. I promised to guard against arrogance and impatience, but also promised to keep up the good work in the future.
After we finished chatting, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening. I looked at the wallet box on the coffee table and thought of Luo Xiangdong. I haven't seen him all day today, and I miss him very much. I want to call him and ask him, but I'm afraid it will be intrusive. After thinking about it, I decided not to call him. Firstly, I'm afraid that there will be nothing to say after calling him, and secondly, I can't condone him. If I get used to this bad habit of calling him when I miss him, will it be okay
I went upstairs with my cell phone and when I came out of the bathroom, my cell phone was ringing. I thought it was Luo Xiangdong, so I ran to pick it up, but it turned out to be Kuang Yiyang. I suddenly felt a little disappointed.
After answering the phone, I smiled and said, "Yi Yang."
Kuang Yiyang gasped and called out: "Senior."
I asked in surprise: "What are you doing?"
Kuang Yiyang replied: "I just finished running with my classmates."
I subconsciously glanced at the watch on the wall and said aloud: "What time is it? Why do you think of going for a run?"
"My friend from the physical education department is about to take the exam, so he forced me to train with him. I just finished a 5,000-meter run, but I'm exhausted."
I said, "He from the physical education department can't force you, from the finance department, to exercise with him, right? He's the one who uses his legs, and you're the one who uses your brain. If you break your legs later, he can take the graduation exam for you." ?”
Kuang Yiyang heard this and replied with a smile: "That's right, I said so too. He is right next to me. Senior sister, do you want to scold him for me?"
I thought Kuang Yiyang was joking, so I replied openly: "Give him your phone."
Unexpectedly, Kuang Yiyang actually handed the phone to someone else. I only heard a faint burst of laughter from inside. The next second, a strange male voice came: "Hi, senior, hello, I'm Yi Yang's Dude, my name is Zhang Ke.”
I paused and immediately replied with a smile: "Ah, hello."
The boy said: "Senior, I'm so lucky to be able to talk to you on the phone. You are my idol."
Across the phone and hundreds of miles away, I blushed at what he said. I was very embarrassed and didn't know what to say, so I had to say thank you in embarrassment.
The boy said again: "Senior sister, you don't know that Yi Yang talks about you in front of us all day long."
I said oh, and then asked: "What did he say about me?"
"Say, you are good. You are a good person, have a good temperament, a good personality, and study well. In short, you are good at everything. To be honest, we are all open-eyed. You are so beautiful and excellent, we can see it, but Yi Yang is always Natao, we all have calluses on our ears. I don’t want you to talk about him more when you have time, but don’t let him nag you again... "
Before the boy finished speaking, he could only hear the faint sounds of a few people pulling and laughing inside. Not long after, the phone fell back into Kuang Yiyang's hand, and he said aloud: "Sorry, senior sister, you Ignore him, he's crazy."
I smiled lightly and replied: "I can tell."
Kuang Yiyang also smiled and said: "Recently, their physical education students are about to prepare for the graduation exam, and everyone is so nervous that they are going crazy. I usually take detours, but I was caught accidentally today."
When I mentioned the word graduation, I thought of the clothes I bought for Kuang Yiyang when I went shopping today, so I said aloud: "By the way, Yiyang, are you free this week?"
Kuang Yiyang didn't even think about it, and immediately replied: "You have time, what do you want to do, senior?"
I said, "When I was shopping today, I bought you a set of clothes. I don't know if you like it or not. When you come to my place when you have time, you can try it on. If you like it, keep it. If you don't like it, return it." Go back and get a new set.”
As Xu Lu expected, Kuang Yiyang replied decisively and blindly: "If you like it, I will definitely like it. There is no need to retreat."
