Chapter 182 I Want It Too
Putting aside the trivialities of the company, Lu Yiming once again began to enjoy the quiet time of campus life.
Although the study life in the third year of high school is extremely busy, Lu Yiming is content with the company of a beautiful woman.
On the tree-lined avenue, the summer sun shone through layers of green, casting a touch of golden light on Shi Qingxue. She walked towards them slowly, her curvy figure faintly visible under her white shirt, so beautiful that one could not take their eyes away.
Facing Lu Yiming's aggressive gaze, Shi Qingxue couldn't help but blush.
"Why are you staring at me?"
"You are so beautiful, but you don't let people see you? Isn't that a bit unreasonable?"
"Tsk, you're so smooth-talking."
Shi Qingxue smiled and said something coquettishly before taking out a box wrapped in pink gift paper with a bow tied on the outside. She blushed and said to Lu Yiming, "Here, this is for you."
"What's this?"
Lu Yiming took it curiously, unwrapped it, and found a bracelet woven with agates of various colors and colored silk threads inside.
Lu Yiming took out the bracelet and held it high. In the sunlight, the agate appeared colorful.
"this……"
Shi Qingxue thought that Lu Yiming disliked her poor work, and immediately pouted and said, "It's not very good, you are not allowed to dislike it! And...that...when I was carving the words...I made a mistake..."
After all, it was her first time doing it, her skills were very unskilled, there was basically no workmanship to speak of, and she made serious mistakes, which made Shi Qingxue feel a little embarrassed.
Lu Yiming put the bracelet on his hand with great care, and gently brushed the engraving on the broken agate with his index finger. He smiled and said, "It's good that it's engraved wrongly, because it means that this bracelet is unique in the world. Did you know that wrong-edition currency is a popular product in the collection world?"
After hearing what Lu Yiming said, Shi Qingxue smiled again.
"As long as you like it."
Lu Yiming said sincerely: "Of course I like it. As long as it's a gift from you, I like it."
Then, Lu Yiming asked curiously, "Why did you suddenly think of giving me this?"
Shi Qingxue said: "I noticed that you had a red sandalwood bracelet on your hand before, but I didn't see it when you came back after being kidnapped last time. I guess it might have been lost, so I wanted to make one for you. Also, you gave me a gift when you came back."
Lu Yiming was very touched to see that Shi Qingxue cared about him so much and even took care of such small details.
Which man can resist the meticulous care of a beautiful woman?
The two looked into each other's eyes, and their feelings gradually heated up. At this critical moment, Li Quanwang suddenly appeared from somewhere with a resentful expression on his face: "By the way, I want a bracelet too..."
Lu Yiming glared at him fiercely: "If you want it, go buy it yourself. It's not like you can't afford it."
Li Quanwang sighed: "How can something I bought myself be the same as something someone gave me as a gift?"
The good atmosphere was ruined by Li Quanwang, and Lu Yiming and Shi Qingxue could no longer continue their love affair. Lu Yiming looked at the Patek Philippe watch on his wrist and said, "It's almost time for class, let's go to the classroom."
After entering the classroom, Zheng Fengting suddenly came to Lu Yiming's desk and placed a beautifully shaped and exquisitely packaged gift box on Lu Yiming's desk.
"Here, this is for you."
Lu Yiming was very surprised: "If you are too attentive to me for no reason, you are either a traitor or a thief. Why are you giving me a gift for no reason? Do you like me too?"
Zheng Fengting said with a look of disdain: "Bah, stop flattering yourself. This is something my cousin asked me to pass on to you."
Lu Yiming suddenly realized: "So, it is your cousin who has taken a fancy to me. Alas, you are so old, but you are still shy. You don't send it yourself, and you have to be the postman."
Zheng Fengting pouted and said, "Come on, my cousin said that you deserve a beating, and she gets angry just by looking at your face, so she simply doesn't want to see you."
Lu Yiming's face was as thick as a city wall, so he would not give in to this. "Isn't it because the school has guards blocking the way and outsiders are not allowed to enter? Besides, I am as elegant as Pan An, as handsome as Song Yu, and I have good looks and temperament. How can I ask for a beating? If your cousin doesn't have an eye disease, then she must have a mental problem."
Zheng Fengting was immediately defeated by Lu Yiming's shamelessness and burst out laughing: "He is as handsome as Pan An and Song Yu. I have never seen anyone so shameless. Hurry up and open it. I am very curious, what will my cousin give you? As far as I can remember, she has never taken the initiative to give a gift to any boy."
The palm-sized gift box was opened to reveal a string of exquisitely crafted red sandalwood bracelets. Each bracelet had distinct patterns and shone brightly. They were all polished to a patina and emitted a faint fragrance.
This is a collection-level red sandalwood bracelet, perhaps made by some wealthy nobleman, and is definitely worth a fortune.
Lu Yiming took the bracelet in his hand and played with it.
He had no knowledge of collecting and appreciating bracelets, but when he held it in his hand, he felt that it was better and more comfortable than the red sandalwood bracelet given by Standard Chartered Bank.
This bracelet is obviously the best in this category.
Li Quanwang looked greedy: "What a good thing, it looks very valuable."
Zheng Fengting couldn't help but widen her eyes. "I remember my cousin bought this bracelet at a miscellaneous auction a few days ago. It was said that she spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on it. She actually bought it for you? Could it be that my cousin really likes you? It doesn't make sense."
Lu Yiming said as a matter of course: "I am such an outstanding young man, just like a firefly in the dark night, a beetle in the rice field, so dazzling, isn't it natural for a girl to like me? How can it be unreasonable ? Okay, thank your cousin for me."
After saying that, he put the bracelet back into the box and stuffed it into the drawer casually.
That night, when in Lin Shuyi's car, Lu Yiming made fun of the bracelet, but Lin Shuyi took it to heart and went to the auction to buy one for her.
Zheng Fengting curled her lips and said, "You don't wear it?"
Lu Yiming shook the crooked agate bracelet on his wrist and said, "I have this."
Maybe the jade bracelet given by Lin Shuyi is worth hundreds of thousands, but in Lu Yiming's eyes, its value is far less than the broken agate bracelet made for him by Shi Qingxue herself.
Because true love is priceless, and he does not need to use luxury goods to show his status.
Zheng Fengting took a curious look at the agate bracelet in Lu Yiming 's hand and found it difficult to understand.
The broken agate bracelet in Lu Yiming's hand is obviously a cheap item. If he really wants to sell it, no one may buy it for even a few dozen yuan, let alone hundreds of thousands.
What a strange guy. What on earth did my cousin like about him?
