Chapter 273 - A Gift That Cannot Be Bought With Money?
In the afternoon, when the girls were dressing up to set out to prepare for Mu Jun's birthday, the girls found out that Sia seemed to be a little restless. For a while, Sia kept phasing walk and forth in the room. Initially, the girls just thought that Sia was nervous and just brushed it off their head but later when Sia showed no sign of stopping, the girls were afraid that Sia might get dizzy and fall sick and therefore turned to Sia to ask
"Can you stop phasing back and forth? it's annoying" Xiao Li frowned
"Baby Sia, what's the matter? Why are phasing back and forth? Is it because of the proposal? Are you nervous?" An Ran asked worriedly
"huh?" getting back to her sense, Sia sighed and replied "I'm not worried about that"
"Then what are you worried about?" Asked Su Yan
"that...I still haven't picked a gift for him" Sia replied while biting her lips
"But aren't you going to propose him? isn't that the best gift for him?" Su Yan frowned
Shaking her head, Sia replied "That doesn't make up for a gift. A present is something you give without expecting any returns, but a proposal is different. It's my first time celebrating his birthday and I want to gift him something memorable but I don't know what to gift" Sia replied unhappily
"Oh...I did not know that" Su Yan replied while scratching the back of her head
"What will you do now? Do you know what does Mu Jun like?" An Ran asked
Shaking her head, Sia pouted "That's what I'm worried about. I still don't know what to gift him"
Deep in thought, Xiao Li rubbed her chin and analyzed "Mu Jun is not very open so you can't be blamed. And when it comes to gifts, there is nothing that Mu Jun can't afford. Even if Mu Jun doesn't care what the gift is and only cares about the person who gifts him then that wouldn't make the gift special. If you really want to gift him something, then you can only get him that cannot be bought with money"
"Cannot be bought with money?" Sia repeated and Suddenly an idea flashed in her mind
"I got it! Great Li, you are the best" with that said Sia hugged Xiao Li's neck and kissed her cheeks before she jumped off and grabbed her shoes. putting the shoes in hurry, she grabbed her cell phone and made her way out, leaving the few girls dumbfounded.
Touching her cheeks, Xiao Li thought "What happened just now?"
Realizing that Sia had left, Xiao Li turned to Su Yan and asked "She left?"
"hmm" nodded Su Yan obediently
"Damn...is she nuts? She actually kissed my cheeks? Ah! I need to wash my face again" Xiao Li complained, but instead of heading to the washroom, she picked her cell phone and called Sia. Before she could ask where the hell was she going, she heard Sia say "babe Li, don't wait for me. You guys go on and prepare for the banquet. I will arrive on time...bye-tut"
Dumbfounded, Xiao Li looked down at her cell phone which was cut off, and cursed.
"What is it? Where did Sia go?" Asked An Ran
"She is not coming. She might have gone out to pick a gift. She asked us to go first...she will catch up later" picking up her bag, Xiao Li checked if everything was there inside before she said "Let's go. there are many things to do...the guys must be waiting for us outside"
"Mm" nodding their head, the girls picked up their bag and headed out.
outside the school, when Sia walked outside she met John who was just about to get on his car and her eyes immediately brightened.
Just as John got on the car, he was pulled out roughly. Before he could curse the person who had mistreated him, he saw Sia hope inside the car and close the door with a bang.
Turning to the dumbfounded John, Sia smiled and said "Little Johny, get a new car. Sister is going to borrow this for a while...then, see you later-bye" with that said, Sia waved her hand and pressed on the accelerator and drove off, leaving a cloud of dust.
Coughing violently, John waved his hand and looked at the car disappearing from his sight. Stomping on his shoes, he could not help but curse at Sia for stealing his car and abandoning him here.
Poor John, he was the most miserable one. Not only was his savings used without mercy for someone else's birthday party, now even his favorite car got stolen from his little star who left him behind in a cloud of dust.
Looking up at the sky, John could not help but scream inwardly. But even if he was mistreated, even if he was pitiful, so what? For his baby sister whom he had cherished since he was little, all these never mattered. If him being miserable could make her happy, he was ready to do anything. Even though that's what he thought, he still felt sour. Having nowhere to cry, John could only sniff and ask his men to get him another car.
After leaving the school, Sia increased the speed and droved the car out of the city. While driving, she called Yun Xia and said "Ninth brother, help me get something"
On the other side, Mu Jun was brought out by Shen Yi to pick a suit. Though Mu Jun never liked to celebrate his birthday since his mother passed away, his father and grandfather would always be enthusiastic when it was his birthday. Since Mu Jun disliked the crowd, the father and grandfather only set up a small blanket and invited only the closest one but since it was his eighteenth birthday tomorrow, the Mu family wanted to celebrate a large banquet.
At first Mu Jun wanted to reject his father's plan but then his grandfather pretended to fall sick. Helpless, Mu Jun could only agree to his father and grandfather's arrangement.
As he was too lazy to pick a suit, whenever he needed to buy a suit, he would just let Shen Yi pick one since the latter knew him the best and he did the same this year too.
But seeing Shen Yi's behavior, Mu Jun frowned slightly. Why did he feel that his second brother was very enthusiastic and picky? Usually, he would just go through a few suites and select the best one but today Shen Yi checked every suite the store had got and checked it on him. the most annoying thing was, whenever he felt the piece of clothing looked good, he would get him to try on.
Initially, he obliged to his second brother's request and tried on three suits. But when Shen Yi continued to usher him to try other suits, he felt annoyed and did not want to try on. But today Shen Yi was unusually stubborn. Ignoring his words, Shen Yi insisted him to try all the suits he had picked stubbornly. though annoyed, Mu Jun just rolled his eyes and obliged to his request. But internally he had already decided not to bring him along from the next time.
Well, he did not have to since there will be someone else accompanying him from then on..right?
After trying all the suits, Shen Yi finally picked on which suited Mu Jun the best and let the store pack it. At the same time, he picked another one that was second best and let the store pack it up.
Raising his eyebrows, Mu Jun asked "Why are you buying two suits?"
"Well, it might come in handy"
