When Lin Xian saw that Yan Xiaoman was about to go back alone, he flagged down a taxi and sent her back to Wang Lan's house.
Before getting out of the car, Yan Xiaoman kissed him on the cheek and said, "Go back to the hotel early. Don't stay out and fool around!"
Lin Xian smiled and nodded, watching her walk into the neighborhood before he told the driver, "Driver, take me back to the Four Seasons Hotel."
...
At home, Aunt Qin and Uncle Qin were sitting on the sofa watching TV.
When they saw Yan Xiaoman come in, Aunt Qin asked with concern, "Xiaoman, have you had dinner?"
"I've eaten, Aunt." Yan Xiaoman answered while changing her slippers.
Noticing the redness on her face, Aunt Qin asked, "Did you drink tonight?"
"Just a little! Aunt, I'm going to my room now." Yan Xiaoman quickly walked toward Wang Lan's bedroom, holding the bag.
Seeing her retreating figure, Uncle Qin frowned and worriedly said, "Do you think Xiaoman is in a relationship?"
"Isn't it normal to date? Xiaoman is in college, she's not a kid anymore." Uncle Qin adjusted his glasses and said dismissively, "You should care more about our daughter. She's almost 25 and still doesn't have a boyfriend."
Aunt Qin immediately became displeased and retorted, "Oh, now you're blaming me? Who was it that suggested she go for the graduate program?"
Once the topic shifted, Aunt Qin quickly forgot about Yan Xiaoman's situation.
...
In the bedroom, Wang Lan was sitting at her desk, typing away on her keyboard, surrounded by piles of books.
When she heard the door open, Wang Lan didn't turn around and joked, "Oh, you're back! I thought you were staying in the hotel tonight."
"Even you, cousin, are starting to bully me now," Yan Xiaoman said shyly as she sat on the bed.
A few minutes later, Wang Lan finished typing the last word, stood up, and stretched.
"Finally done!" she said, picking up a cup of coffee and taking a sip. She then asked, "Where did you go today?"
"We went to FD University in the morning and then wandered around the mall," Yan Xiaoman answered.
"Huh?"
At this point, Wang Lan noticed a Chanel shopping bag on the bed and curiously asked, "Did Lin Xian buy this for you?"
"Yeah, I thought it was too expensive, but he insisted on buying it for me."
Although she said that, there was a sweet smile in Yan Xiaoman's eyes.
"Ugh, the sour smell of love."
Wang Lan, who had been force-fed a spoonful of dog food, couldn't help but roll her eyes. She herself only owned a Chanel suit skirt that she'd saved up for months to buy, and even that was only for show.
She took a glance at the bag and then urged, "Wow, this dress is so dreamy, hurry up and try it on for me!"
Just then, she noticed that there seemed to be a gift box mixed in with the dress.
Wang Lan took the gift box in her hands and couldn't help but exclaim, "Holy crap, Cartier!"
"This was also from Lin Xian? Is it a watch or a necklace? Could it be a ring?"
When she saw the gift box, Yan Xiaoman was also taken aback and wondered, "Why is Lin Xian's lighter here with me?"
"A lighter?"
Wang Lan rolled her eyes, disappointed. "Oh, it's just a lighter," she said, but then quickly added, "Can I see it? Honestly, I didn't even know Cartier sold lighters!"
"Sure!"
Yan Xiaoman didn't think much about it, as a lighter wasn't something private. She was about to call Lin Xian to tell him that he had left it at her place.
However, just as she was about to pick up her phone, Wang Lan suddenly let out a shrill scream!
Yan Xiaoman was startled, and her phone fell onto the bed.
She looked over and saw that the gift box had been opened, revealing a silver bracelet inside.
The bracelet sparkled brilliantly under the light, especially the pink gemstone, which gave off a dreamy glow.
"Cartier LOVE series, the new summer collection!!!"
Wang Lan immediately recognized the bracelet and was envious. "This is a couple's bracelet. I've seen it several times when I was shopping, but I just looked at it from afar. I could never bring myself to buy it because, you know, it costs 388,000, which makes me feel like I'm a beggar."
Yan Xiaoman looked at the bracelet, her expression somewhat complicated.
Wang Lan, seeing this, couldn't help but ask, "Xiaoman, what's wrong? Don't you like it?"
"This guy..."
With a slight sigh, Yan Xiaoman recounted everything that had happened that afternoon in full detail.
After hearing the story, Wang Lan sighed. "How come I can never find a boyfriend like that?"
Of course, Wang Lan was just daydreaming. If she really had such a boyfriend, she would be reluctant, not because she didn't like him, but because the pressure would be too much. It was easy to imagine that a man like him would attract all sorts of women, even if he didn't actively pursue them. There would always be women who would throw themselves at him.
Shaking her head, Wang Lan smiled brightly and said, "Quick, change into the dress and wear the bracelet. Let's see how it looks on you."
Under Wang Lan's urging, Yan Xiaoman reluctantly changed into the dress and put on the bracelet.
The dress had a somewhat vintage style, but with fashionable details. With the Cartier bracelet, Yan Xiaoman instantly transformed into a princess.
"Wow, you look so beautiful! Xiaoman, you really have great taste!" Wang Lan exclaimed enviously.
Biting her lower lip, Yan Xiaoman picked up her phone and sent Lin Xian a message on WeChat: I really like it, but don't do it again!
...
At the Four Seasons Hotel.
Lin Xian was lying on the bed, glancing at the chat message, and couldn't help but smile slightly.
After putting down his phone, he shifted his attention back to the system interface.
In just a minute, the system's store would refresh.
The shopping experience from last night had made him look forward to it.
As the final second of the refresh countdown passed, a new item appeared in his line of sight.
