Chapter 140: Apology and Gifts

As Zhou Ci signaled, the doors of the cars behind him opened one by one. Out stepped a group of burly men, each holding an exquisite gift box. They lined up and opened the boxes to reveal the contents.

Gu Dai’s eyes swept across the items in the gift boxes.

Having regained her memory, she had promptly familiarized herself with the latest fashion trends. She recognized that the jewelry, clothes, shoes, handbags, and various trinkets inside those boxes were all high-end items from the latest collections.

Standing at the forefront, Zhou Ci took out an ornate box and bowed deeply before opening it. Inside were a pair of bracelets.

Gu Dai’s eyes narrowed slightly upon seeing the bracelets.

They were crafted from the finest materials, completely flawless and translucent.

What astonished Gu Dai was that she had seen pictures of these bracelets before. Old Master Zhou had once declared that these bracelets would be permanently kept in the family as heirlooms. Now, however, Zhou Ci had brought them out, and not just one, but a pair.

Lifting her eyes, Gu Dai looked at Zhou Ci and asked, “What’s the meaning of this?”

Zhou Ci smiled, “Miss Gu Dai, with your discerning eye, you must already know the origins of these bracelets. When my grandfather learned that 1 was coming to see you, he insisted that I bring them as a token of our gratitude.”

Meng Zhi, initially unaware of the bracelets’ significance, did a quick online search and couldn’t help but exclaim, “These are incredibly valuable.”

Zhou Ci responded solemnly, “Not too valuable at all. I believe it would be an honor for them to be worn by Miss Gu Dai.”

Meng Zhi gave Zhou Ci a surprised look, not expecting him to have such an enlightened view.

Remaining as composed as ever, Gu Dai said, “1 merely helped your grandfather in passing; it was nothing extraordinary. These bracelets are far too valuable; I cannot accept them.”

Zhou Ci seemed alarmed by her response and quickly said, “How could it be a mere passing favor? After we reached the hospital, we consulted the doctors. They said if not for your timely treatment, my grandfather would have surely died on the spot. He considers you his life-saver and insists on repaying this debt. Should you need anything in the future, you can count on the entire Zhou family to assist you wholeheartedly.”

Not waiting for Gu Dai to speak, Zhou Ci continued with a worried expression, “My grandfather insists that you accept these bracelets as a token of his gratitude. If you refuse and he sees me bringing them back, he’ll probably beat me with his walking stick. Then he’d personally bring the bracelets to thank you. If you still refuse, he’ll certainly lose sleep and appetite, which would affect his health…”

Listening to Zhou Ci’s extended tale, Gu Dai sighed and said, “Alright, I’ll accept the bracelets for now. When you go back, please thank Old Master Zhou for his kindness. Also, remind him to rest well. He’s still in the recovery stage and shouldn’t stress himself too much; it could negatively impact his health.”

Zhou Ci’s face shifted instantly from an expression of worry to one of relief and joy. “Rest assured, I’ll convey all your messages to my grandfather!”

Gu Dai nodded, her eyes drifting to the items held by the men behind Zhou Ci. “Are these gifts also from Old Master Zhou?” Her tone was laden with skepticism; it just didn’t feel likely.

Quickly, Zhou Ci clarified, “No, these are my personal gifts to you as an apology.”

Then he bowed deeply again, “I was far too impulsive that day, ignoring your explanations and offending you repeatedly. Although you’ve forgiven me, 1 still hope you’ll accept these gifts as a chance for me to make amends.”

Gu Dai looked at Zhou Ci, who remained in a deep bow before her, and let out a soft laugh.

Even though Zhou Ci was the only young master of the Zhou family, and had been coddled since childhood, he was unreserved in his apology once he realized his mistake. He didn’t seem to mind losing face, which was quite commendable.

Though his actions were a bit flamboyant.

Shaking her head in mild exasperation, Gu Dai said, “Alright, stand up. 1 accept your apology and your gifts..”
