Chapter 84: Gifts
"Moses Moses!"
"Reina-chan?"
"Ahh
"Ah...... Sorry, didn't notice that it's supposed to be bedtime over there!"
"Well, forget it...... Anyway, I haven't heard your voice for a long time, so when will you be back in Tokyo?"
"It should be soon, I'm in Paris now, I'm saying goodbye to my friends after dealing with this matter, I should be able to go back!"
Lin Xiuyi stood next to an elevator on the third floor of the Bomarchais department store on the Left Bank of Paris, and was a little hesitant to think about whether to consult Reina.
"That...... What do you think I should bring back with you?"
"Gift...... Hah, what a gift, is it for me?"
"It's everyone, including you, and by the way, you don't have anything in particular that you want?"
Lin Xiuyi casually asked Ling Nai, and his eyes kept looking at the shopping guide in the mall, thinking about what to buy for his relatives and friends.
"Me? I don't think I really want anything? By the way, should you bring something back to Akemi-chan? After all, you haven't seen each other in a long time!"
"yes, yes, I'm just hesitating to buy something for Akemi, what do you think, what about clothes and handbags?"
"Hmph, that's what you're calling for, isn't it? You didn't call me so late because you couldn't decide on my gift......
Reina pretended to be angry and said to Lin Xiuyi.
"There, I just asked you if there's anything you particularly want, and that was before I asked Akemi!"
Lin Xiuyi hurriedly quibbled with Ling Nai.
"Alas...... Ever since I had Akemi-chan, my sister is no longer the most important person in Ernie Chan's heart, it's so sad, it's hard for me to cook every day and wait for you to come home!"
Ling Nai, who was on the upper body of the drama spirit, couldn't help laughing and continued to complain to Lin Xiuyi.
"Reina-chan, if I make you feel like you're being neglected, I'll definitely correct it in the future!"
Lin Xiuyi said to Ling Nai on the phone very seriously.
"Don't! Ernie chan, I was teasing you just now, why are you so sensational all of a sudden, it's so embarrassing!"
Reina suddenly felt a little regretful about her attitude when she first received the call, and although she pretended not to care, she still felt very moved in her heart.
"Oni-chan, if you bring a gift to Akemi, I'm afraid the clothes and handbags are really not very suitable......"
"Eh, don't many people buy clothes and handbags to take back to the people around them?"
Lin Xiuyi asked Ling Nai with some puzzlement.
"However, has Oni-chan forgotten Akemi-chan's identity? Most of the clothes on her body are provided by the club she endorses, and if she wears clothes from other brands or uses other brands of handbags without permission, she will definitely get into trouble. So brother, you better don't bring these gifts to Akemi......"
"But...... What kind of gift should I give to Akemi-chan?"
"I don't really say much about this kind of thing, but I think Akemi-chan likes you so much, as long as it's something you give, she'll definitely like it. As long as it's not clothes and handbags, things she can't wear or use at all......"
……
After getting Reina's prompt, Lin Xiu thought about it for a while and decided to buy Akemi a piece of jewelry as a gift. Necklaces, in particular, can be worn frequently without being too conspicuous. More importantly, the necklace itself also carries a certain special meaning, such as good wishes such as wishing that the relationship between the two people will be stronger, and from this point of view, the necklace can well convey Lin Xiuyi's heart to Akemi.
Lin Xiuyi took the elevator to the floor where the jewelry was located. Although it claims to be one of the three major department stores in Paris. But perhaps because it is not as well-known as Galeries Lafayette and Paris Spring, there are few Asians in the Bomarchais. Lin Xiuyi walked around the jewelry sales area slightly. I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. The necklace here is actually difficult to meet Lin Xiuyi's requirements. Although many necklaces are like an outstanding piece of artwork. But Lin Xiuyi didn't like these special shapes. After all, because of Akemi's identity, the relationship between the two cannot be made public. Therefore, in terms of choice, Lin Xiuyi prefers those necklaces that are simple in shape and will not attract attention.
"Sir, is there anything I can do for you?"
Just when Lin Xiuyi was hesitating around these exquisite jewelry, a beautiful shopping guide lady quietly came to Lin Xiuyi's side and asked him cordially.
Because the other party spoke English, Lin Xiu directly understood the other party's words. He hesitated slightly, and then the somewhat hesitant Miss Shopping replied:
"Well, do you have a necklace here that looks a little simpler? It's the kind that isn't too conspicuous and is very light to wear......"
Lin Xiuyi tried hard to imagine what kind of necklace he was going to buy for Akemi. But although he knew the style he wanted, he couldn't say the specific style. This made Lin Xiuyi feel very embarrassed.
"Wait a minute, sir, you mean you prefer the more minimalist designs, don't you?"
"I'm sorry, I don't know what I need. But is this all your necklaces here?"
"No, it's just the latest piece of jewelry this season, so why don't we take a look at it and see if there's anything you like?"
As she spoke, the shopping guide took out a picture album from the cabinet behind her, then opened it and gently placed it in front of Lin Xiuyi.
Lin Xiu finished the album, and then carefully checked the goods on it. It has to be said that these luxury jewelry really have a pleasing manufacturing process and an amazing excellent design. But these things gave Lin Xiuyi a feeling of being too mature. Lin Xiuyi felt that Yi Mingmei's current age was not suitable for wearing this kind of eye-catching jewelry.
"I'm sorry, but none of this is what I want, is there anything simpler?"
"Simpler? Do you mean you just want to buy a pendant? I think if you still want to, maybe you can check this out?"
As she spoke, the shopping guide took out a small box from the bottom of the counter, and then put it in front of Lin Xiuyi.
"Look at this, it's just a simple heart-shaped pendant, but the gold used in this pendant is entirely ethically sourced, whether it's the source of the material or the design, this pendant is very suitable for your requirements, and it's so light that you can barely feel the weight. And because the raw material is certified 'Fairmined', there is no psychological burden on you to buy it......"
After listening to the other party's introduction, Lin Xiuyi looked at a small piece of rose gold the size of a little fingernail on his hand, and then looked at the price marked on it, 3,500 euros. Finally, I decided to buy this pendant and give it to Akemi. After all, there is nothing more suitable than a heart for your lover.
