Chapter 50: Reward

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Today, Chu An didn’t leave with her after school. He said that he had something urgent to attend to and had to go home first. Gu Xiao didn’t think too much about it and agreed.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she returned home, she saw a table full of dazzling delicacies with a large cake in the middle.

Chu An was moving boxes. There were many delivery boxes at the door.

“This is…” Gu Xiao did not know what to say.

Chu An explained with a smile, “First of all, congratulations to our Xiaoxiao for obtaining the first place in the class and the twelfth place in the grade!”

Gu Xiao burst out laughing. “What’s there to congratulate? It’s just an exam for the ordinary class.”

“I don’t care. 1 just want to congratulate you. This is the best results you’ve ever gotten.” Chu An placed his hands on his hips with a proud expression, as if it was him who had scored the best results.

…..

“So, in the future, every time 1 do better than before, you have to congratulate me?”

“Uh-huh, of course.”

“Then 1 have to improve slower and strive to eat a few more of Chef Chu’s banquets.”

The two of them joked with each other. Gu Xiao suddenly remembered the delivery boxes at the door and asked Chu An what he had bought.

“Those? They’re all the ink, writing paper and so on that you asked for before.”

Gu Xiao was just drinking water. When she heard him say that, she almost spat out a mouthful of water.

“You bought so much?” Gu Xiao sighed at Chu An’s wealth.

“You didn’t say what type you wanted, and 1 didn’t know what you liked, so 1 bought a little of each type.” Chu An rubbed his head in embarrassment. “Alright, I’ve waited for you for a while. If we don’t eat now, it’ll get cold.”

Gu Xiao nodded. “Speaking of which, did you get first place in the grade again? How should 1 reward you?”

Chu An’s chopsticks paused for a moment. To him, getting first place was a very simple matter, but Gu Xiao’s mention of rewards made him a little tempted.

His heart was beating wildly. Gu Xiao’s words made him look forward to it, but he was too embarrassed to say that he wanted a reward.

Gu Xiao seemed to have seen through Chu An’s thoughts and took out an exquisite box from her bag.

Chu An stared intently at the box.

“It’s for you. 1 picked a better fountain pen from the stationery shop. In my previous life, you liked to write articles. After thinking about it, it’s best to give you a fountain pen.”

Chu Aii took the box excitedly, treating it like a treasure.

“It’s for me…” Chu An muttered. “What? Getting first place isn’t something worth rewarding for me.”

“Then take it as my reward for congratulating me.” Gu Xiao stuck out her tongue. Her playful and cute appearance stunned Chu An.

He coughed dryly and muttered a few words before lowering his head.

Gu Xiao could see that his ears had turned red.

Chu An made a lot of dishes, and they were all Gu Xiao’s favorites.

At this moment, Gu Xiao felt that she could be no happier.

After the meal, Chu An washed the dishes as usual. Gu Xiao tidied up the dining table and picked out a large pile of calligraphy and painting supplies that Chu An had bought. Then, she spread the writing paper on the dining table and began to write.

Gu Xiao’s strokes were like dragons and snakes. Although she was a girl, her handwriting was not weak and pretentious. Instead, it was grand and majestic. Her handwriting was self-contained. Even the famous people of the current era did not dare to say that they could write better than her.

Chu An quietly waited for her to finish writing, as if he was admiring an artistic performance.

After finishing one painting, she began to write the second and third painting before stopping.

Seeing that she had stopped, Chu An said, “There’s a painting exhibition going on recently. Why don’t you choose one and send it over? If it’s successfully displayed at the exhibition, it might be able to increase the value of your work. After it becomes famous, you can sell it.”

Gu Xiao tilted her head and thought for a moment. She felt that it was fine, so she chose one for Chu An and asked him to help send it.

“This one. This one isn’t good, but it’s more than enough to enter the exhibition. When the time comes, I’ll sell the other two paintings that are better.”

Chu An nodded happily. His Xiaoxiao was beautiful, kind, serious in her studies, and had a good mind for business.

Chu An took out the boxed fountain pen and walked into his bedroom. He placed it by his pillow and stared at it for a long time.

He really liked it too much..
