You are like the warm sun

Chapter 181 Gifts from Aci and Jiajia
Not long after the two girls finished their conversation, Shao Zhouci opened the door and came back with a courier box in his hand.

Seeing this, Tang Wan trotted over to him, her eyes fixed on the box he was holding. She looked at the delivery slip on it, and asked with some anticipation, "Is this from Jia Jia?"

"Ah."

She reached out to take it, but he raised his hand to avoid it.

"Eh?"

Tang Wan looked at him in confusion.

Shao Zhouci glanced at the express delivery in his hand and asked, "Is this her birthday present for you?"

"Yes."

He said "oh" indifferently and casually placed the package on the entrance cabinet. His eyes were a little domineering and childish, but his tone was soft: "Wanwan, I have a gift for you too. Open mine first."

The first gift Wanwan received on her eighteenth birthday must have been from him.

Tang Wan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

How can you be jealous of even the gift?

"I thought these flowers were your birthday present to me."

Shao Zhouci showed an expression that said, "No."

These flowers were only used to cheer her up. Although they were gorgeous and beautiful now, they would wither in a few days. He didn't want to give her something so perishable and difficult to preserve.

Tang Wan was curious about what he would give her, so she urged him to get it.

Before entering the room, the boy glanced at the express box on the entrance with concern, "Don't open it secretly."

Tang Wan nodded obediently: "Got it."

Soon, he took out a small square gift box from the room and walked in front of her.

Before she could ask what it was, he suddenly picked her up sideways.

Tang Wan was gently placed on the sofa and sat down.

After he withdrew his hand, he knelt on one knee in front of her, looked up at her with clear and gentle eyes.

Her eyebrows twitched, and an idea suddenly emerged in her mind.

No, no, no.

Is he proposing?
Is it too early?

Just as Tang Wan was lost in her thoughts, Shao Zhouci opened the small gift box in front of her. After seeing the contents clearly, her thoughts froze, and she couldn't tell whether she felt relieved or a little disappointed.

Not a ring.

It was a red bead necklace with small, round beads and a silver chain. The design was simple and elegant. There was also a string of small silver bells underneath the bead necklace.

Tang Wan sighed softly, "So beautiful."

Shao Zhouci unconsciously loosened his clenched fingers, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly: "Then I will help you put it on, okay?"

"it is good."

Logan extended a hand toward him.

Shao Zhouci paused and explained softly, "Wanwan, this is not a bracelet."

"Well, what is that?"

He lowered his eyes, reached out and gently held her left ankle, helping her take off her woolen shoes.

Tang Wan reacted instantly.

This is an anklet.

Shao Zhouci placed her jade-white feet on his knees, and like a Buddhist believer, he reverently and carefully put the anklet on her feet, and then hung the detachable bells on them.

The red bead necklace is small and not out of place, making her skin look even whiter.

After doing this, he gently stroked her protruding ankle and looked at the gift he had given her. His dark eyes, covered by long eyelashes, were filled with a hint of satisfaction, but then he was afraid that she might not like it.

He raised his eyes, his delicate and handsome face showing some uneasiness and tentativeness, "Do you like it?"

Tang Wan felt a little strange.

She moved her feet.

The bells began to jingle.

She felt inexplicably ashamed.

"I like it." After thinking for a moment, Tang Wan whispered, "But the bell is too loud. Can I not wear it?"

"……it is good."
