Actually, Pei Ge rarely went shopping.

The stuff she used were either cheap goods from the supermarket or discounted items bought online.

Basically, except for the handful of times she had gone shopping with either Pan Xinlei or Qin Qitong or both, her things were all bought for convenience's sake only.

Therefore, helping Fu Mingxuan choose a gift for his unknown goddess was a problem for her.

She felt her head throbbing when he brought her into a jewelry store.

She really questioned herself on why she had agreed to help him pick a gift.

"Ge Ge, look; of these two, which necklace appeals to you more?"

Her mouth twitched when he pointed the two exquisite necklaces to her and noticed the store clerk looking at her enviously.

"Senior, why do you want to give her a necklace? Does she like jewelry?" Instead of answering his question, she looked at him in confusion.

He pursed his lips upon perceiving her lack of interest in the jewelry.

"Don't women like jewelry?"

She subconsciously rolled her eyes when she heard that.

"Who made it a rule for women to only such stuff?"

Okay, fine. Most women indeed like them, but…

"Senior, I were her, I'd panic if someone gave me jewelry due to its costliness." She smiled at him.

These necklaces were indeed pretty, and it was clear that he had put in effort in selecting them, but…

The purple jade necklace and the pink diamond, both clearly expensive, shimmered under the light.

"Senior, didn't you say that you hadn't seen each other in a long time? It's probably a bad idea for you to give her something this expensive during your first reunion."

Who gifts something this expensive the first time they reunite with someone they haven't seen in so long? Not even for birthday.

"You think it's a bad idea?" He could not get what she meant.

He had girlfriends before; those women, including his friends' women, were always happy to receive jewelry as gifts from him.

"Not that it's bad, it's just inappropriate. If you truly like that woman, I suggest that you more thought into the gift," she recommended, looking at him seriously.

"Also, I think, if the girl you like is good, she'll probably not want such an expensive necklace. She might think it's weird or, to exaggerate things a little, think that you're assaulting her with money."

At least, that was what she thought. She might be happy if it was from someone she liked.

However, if it was from someone neither her boyfriend nor she was familiar with, she would never accept such an expensive birthday gift!please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

If it happened that the man was wooing her, then, all the more, she would not accept the gift. She might really think that he was assaulting her with money.

Listening to her grand declaration, the store clerk holding the necklaces could not help but roll her eyes. 'This woman must be crazy' was written all over her face.

He laughed aloud at her explanation, and his smile grew uncontrollably wider.

The woman he liked was truly not like the others.

"Ha ha ha!" He chuckled. He realized that he had been laughing freely more frequently since he started spending more time with her.

"Why are you laughing?" His hearty laughter made Pei Ge feel awkward, clueless on what she had said to cause it.

"Pfft!" Seeing her antsy but confused reaction, he began chortling again.

"Hey, are you buying that gift or not? If not, I'm leaving." She glared at him, frustrated by his attitude.

He stopped laughing when he deemed that she really got upset.

"Okay, okay, okay. I'll stop laughing." He, who had laughed until tears came out of his eyes, stopped right that instant and waved away the store clerk, who was still holding up the necklaces.

"Take it away." He ordered the store clerk behind the counter evenly.

Perhaps affected by his merriment, the store clerk boldly refused to take the necklaces away and, instead, opened her mouth to speak.

"CEO Fu, these necklaces were saved specially for you. Both the designs and grade of these are top of the line - not to mention that pink and purple accessories are in trend this year. Many girls would kill to have these eye-catching pieces of jewelry!"

As the store clerk respectfully introduced the jewelry to him, she was judging Pei Ge from the corner of her eyes.

What kind of taste is that? If she wants to get the rich guy, this is how it's done! She's too pretentious!

Looking like this, she should get more out of it while she can. Being so pretentious… Gross!

The store clerk grumbled about Pei Ge to herself, clearly upset with the latter's words earlier.

Having been in the business sector for that long, Fu Mingxuan could easily read the store clerk's thoughts. His smile faded a little in that instant.

"Ge Ge, do you like the two necklaces?" He smiled gently at her.

Pei Ge blinked, looking at two necklaces, and then shook her head.

"While they're really pretty, to me, wearing something so expensive around my neck is unappealing."

"Pfft!"

"Ha ha! Only someone from a poor origin going after rich guys shamelessly says things like this. How laughable!"
