Xiao Nan hung up the phone and saw that the time was not yet eight o'clock in the evening, and today was the earliest day to get off work in the past half a month. Open the phone book and call up Huzi's mobile phone number, dial it with a little fingertip, and after a short waiting tone, the line is connected.

"Yo, it's really rare, it's rare that you will call me, I thought you had evaporated from the world!" came Huzi's cheap voice from the earpiece. "What, is there anything wrong with me?"

"Hmm......" Xiao Nan felt a little embarrassed: "I want to ...... Let you accompany me to buy something, do you have time now?"

"I'm rubbing, the sun is coming out of the west, I heard you right, right?" Huzi smiled: "Since you, it's the first time in so long a time that you have called me out to come out to buy something with you, what's the matter, you are angry with Xiaoting? If she is here, why can't I take this kind of errand?"

"What's the ...... You don't think about it crookedly, I just don't want Xiaoting to know and call you, don't talk nonsense, do you want to come?

"Poofha......" Huzi laughed even more unscrupulously: "You still told me not to think crookedly, but how do I feel that you want to elope with Xiaoting behind my back?"

"Huzi, your soul is weak!" Xiao Nan was so angry that his eyes darkened: "If you don't want to help, forget it, and still say cool things, come on, just because I don't know you!"

"Alas, wait a minute!" Huzi heard that Xiao Nan was "really angry", so he quickly put away his laughter and asked repeatedly: "Where are you now? I'll look for you right away?"

"Cut, I don't need you anymore!" Xiao Nan said hatefully, but didn't hang up the phone, sure enough, the tiger on the other side of the phone began to compensate vigorously: "Okay, okay, it's my mistake, my eldest miss, where are you now, I'll fly over immediately!"

"Hmph, I'll go shopping on New Pedestrian Street by myself, if you dare to come with me, I'll break your dog's legs!" Xiao Nan gritted his teeth when he said this, and hung up the phone after speaking, but his face smiled - although Xiao Nan usually doesn't like it very much, so he begs for someone, but sometimes, he has to call this unreliable guy to get it.

"This thing is really getting more and more tsundere, sometimes I wonder if she was born to be a girl......" Huzi shook his head with a wry smile and put away his phone, he was sitting by the window of the café he frequented, and his tall and mighty Chrysler Wrangler was parked in the parking space not far from the floor-to-ceiling window.

Turning off the unfinished project on the laptop, taking advantage of the automatic shutdown of the computer, Huzi picked up the coffee cup and drank the remaining half cup of bitter coffee, then turned his head and waved to the waitress in the café: "Miss, pay!"

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Xiaoting has not yet reached the floor where she is, she has heard a burst of excited dog barking from a distance, she took out the door key from her satchel while going up the steps, and before she could insert the key into the lock hole, the door clicked open from the inside, and a middle-aged woman's charming face appeared in the crack of the open door.

"As soon as I heard the call of our family's Bai Xue, I knew that it was my family's Tingting who came back!" Liu Juan immediately smiled when she saw Xiaoting.

"Mom, why are you so happy today?" Xiao Ting asked her mother as she entered the door and took off the high heels on her feet. At this time, a snow-white bristle fox hunting terrier ran down from the second floor, and ran straight towards Xiao Ting, and without waiting for Xiao Ting to change the shoes on her feet, she pounced affectionately and put her two front paws on Xiao Ting's legs.

"White-snow-" Xiao Ting didn't care about wearing high heels on one foot and slippers on the other, so she picked up the little white dog. "You haven't seen me for a day, do you miss your sister?"

"Oh, it's not dirty, Bai Xue hasn't bathed it when she came back from walking today!" Liu Juan hurriedly "snatched" the puppy from her daughter's arms, but unfortunately it was still late, and Xiaoting's snow-white skirt left two shallow dog paw prints.

Liu Juan helped Xiaoting pat off the dog paw prints on her skirt, and without waiting for Xiaoting to take off her coat and take off her small satchel, she grabbed her hand and led her to the living room, laughing as she walked.

"What's the matter, Mom, what happened today to make you so happy?" Xiaoting asked strangely.

"Tingting, my mother asked you how you are getting along with the third son of the Xia family a few days ago, and you also said that you haven't had much contact, and you won't talk on the phone for a long time and you don't have anything to say, right?" Liu Juan smiled and "complained": "You kid, you don't even tell the truth to your mother......"

"Why don't I tell the truth?" Xiaoting was confused by her mother's words: "What is the third son of the Xia family, Mom, what do you want to say, I was stunned by you......"

"What do you think this is?" Liu Juan pointed to a small cardboard box on the coffee table in the living room: "Na, look at it yourself......"

Xiaoting picked up the carton and looked at it, the waybill on the carton was written in a lot of English, and it was covered with a lot of customs clearance stamps, the carton had been opened, and the contents were taken out to see, it was a jewelry box with more exquisite packaging, originally tied with a pink ribbon, and now the ribbon has also been untied, obviously my mother has seen the things inside.

"Was it sent to me by Xia Longfei?" Thinking of the third son of the Xia family mentioned by her mother just now, Xiaoting can guess a few points without looking at the waybill, and sure enough, there is Xia Longfei's English signature on the waybill, and the recipient is herself.

"Hurry up and open it and take a look at the ......" Liu Juan on the side saw that her daughter was a little anxious when she saw that her daughter was looking at the waybill repeatedly but did not look at the jewelry box, and couldn't help urging.

"What's the hurry......" Xiao Ting pouted a little unhappy, what kind of gift did Xia Longfei give himself when he had nothing to do? Recently, this guy has made a lot of international calls to himself, and every time he says something useless, and he talks for a long time, although he didn't say it too explicitly, but Xiao Ting is not an ignorant girl who has just started to fall in love after all, what intentions does Xia Longfei have in her heart, how can she not know?

"Hmph...... Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief...... Xiao Ting opened the box with a low mutter, and a Scottish prehnite pendant with a round and smooth surface and a transparent and crystal color appeared in front of Xiao Ting's eyes.

Xiaoting is not very interested in gems and other things, but she also knows a little about prehnite, which is not a very valuable "quasi-gem", not a particularly expensive luxury jewelry, but the prehnite in her hand looks very perfect, the whole body is crystal clear at the same time, under the illumination of the ceiling lamp in the living room, there seems to be fluorescent flow inside, as a jewelry is still very beautiful.

Hmph, Xia Longfei is quite smart, he knows that if he gives me too expensive gifts, I will never accept them, so he replaced them with this kind of small thing that is not expensive and very ingenious...... Xiao Ting looked at the prehnite in her hand, but she really liked this exquisite little gift, but Xia Longfei's gift can be accepted casually? Although this is not a very valuable thing...... But why did he give me a gift at this time?

Xiao Ting picked up the pendant with the silver chain of the prehnite pendant, only to find that there was a small card pressed under the prehnite, and a line of small characters was written on it with a pen: Xiaoting, this prehnite was not bought from the store! It was discovered by chance when I went to a cave in Scotland with my friends, and I found someone to carve it out, just to wish Miss Yuting a happy 22nd birthday, and Long Fei respectfully.

"Oh, I see, it's my birthday coming soon!" Xiaoting woke up like a dream. In the past six months, she has experienced too much with Cheng Xiaonan, from a desperate and helpless high paraplegia to a miraculous complete recovery, especially Cheng Xiaonan's transition from male to female, which made Xiaoting feel that life was as unreal as a dream, and her life was a bit trance and she couldn't find her direction, and she forgot her birthday.

"How about it, you see how good the third son of Xia is to you, I have always been thinking about you!" Liu Juan smiled: "You stupid girl still said that you have no contact, look, people have sent birthday gifts to the house......"

Wait a minute, how do you feel that something is wrong? Xiao Ting looked at the recipient's address on the package, and her beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly: "It's strange, how can Xia Longfei know what my birthday is? Also, how did he know the address of our house?"

Xiaoting turned her head to look at her mother, and Liu Juan felt a sense of weakness. "Mom, shouldn't you have told him all these things?" asked Xiaoting.

"Mom is also thinking about you......" Liu Juan said hesitantly: "That young man's appearance, character, and family background are all the best choices, and people like you, such an opportunity is hard to come by, of course your mother and I are happy to match you......"

"Mom...... You are really ......" Xiao Ting didn't know what to say, holding the prehnite pendant that Xia Longfei gave her in her hand, she only felt a burst of trouble.

"My silly daughter......" Liu Juan saw Xiaoting's frowns slightly, her eyes flowed, knowing that she had a thousand knots in her heart, she lost no time in persuading: "If you encounter a good opportunity, you should seize it in time, otherwise, once you lose the opportunity, it is likely that you will never encounter a second time in your life......"

Originally, Xiaoting really liked Xia Longfei to give her this prehnite pendant, because the thing was not too valuable, in terms of Xia Longfei's family background, it was okay as a birthday gift between ordinary friends, she was just struggling with whether it would give Xia Longfei more imagination space and follow-up actions if she accepted it, but now that her mother said so, she just liked it and didn't want to accept it.

"Mom-what are you talking about!" Xiao Ting put the jewelry box in her hand on the coffee table, and just wanted to complain a few words about her mother's self-assertion, when suddenly there was a sound of the key unlocking at the door, and then the door clicked open, Xiao Ting's father Qiao Yuanfan held a yellow file bag in his hand, and walked into the house, with a gloomy expression on his face.
