at last.

Twenty minutes later, a gift box about the size of two palms appeared in front of the three of them.

Nan Punian opened the box, paused for a moment when he saw what was inside, and then his dark eyes lit up.

"It should have been sharpened."

Nan Shu had seen pictures when choosing a gift, but when she actually saw the real thing, a look of amazement flashed across her almond-shaped eyes.

She was actually captivated by a cool dagger!
Yes.

Nan Shu gave Nan Punian a dagger. The hilt and blade were one piece, jet black and shiny, with a sharp edge that gleamed with a cold light at the tip. The character "Pu" was engraved on the side of the hilt.

All three brothers in the Nan family are of the age of 10, but only the Nan family member has the character "璞" in his name.

"I love so much."

Nan Punian picked up the dagger and flipped his wrist.

A whooshing sound rang out, and the dagger emitted a series of buzzing sounds.

"This is the most heartwarming gift I've ever received. Thank you, Xiaoshu."

The gift box also comes with a portable cover that can be worn on the thigh, tied around the waist, or hidden in the arm.

Seeing that Nan Punian genuinely liked her, Nan Shu's lips curved into a smile.

"As long as the South team likes it."

Nan Punian carefully put the dagger away. He made up his mind that he would carry this dagger with him every day from now on.

I don't even take it off when I shower or sleep!
Xu Yunli stared at the dagger for a long time, his lips pursing even more tightly.

He wanted to leave, but he couldn't bear to.

He noticed out of the corner of his eye that Nan Shu was looking at him, and he looked up at her.

Then the girl pushed the second gift box toward him.

Xu Yunli: ?

"This is a New Year's gift for forensic doctor Xu."

Xu Yunli was stunned for two seconds.

"My... mine?"

The next second, the corners of his lips curled up uncontrollably, and the smile in his eyes was impossible to stop.

Nan Shu nodded.

"Ah."

"Can I open it now?"

Xu Yunli asked nervously.

Nan Shu nodded again.

then.

Just moments ago, the person who had been secretly mocking Nan Punian for being slow at unwrapping gifts was now back in 'QQ' mode.

Nan Shu: ...

Nan Pu Nian: ...

Was he just that stupid too?

Another twenty minutes passed, and the innermost box was even smaller than Nan Pu Nian's.

Xu Yunli opened it, and a delicate fountain pen came into view.

Nan Punian glanced at her sideways and thought, "Heh, she's not as good as him, nor as special as him. As expected, Xiao Shu is the best to him!"

Thinking about it, he touched the dagger in his hand again.

Xu Yunli noticed that the auspicious cloud pattern on the pen cap, when viewed from the side, vaguely revealed the character '礼' (li, meaning courtesy).

This shows the thoughtfulness of the person giving the gift.

Her fingertips gently caressed the auspicious cloud, and when she looked up, her fox-like eyes curved into crescents, revealing an undisguised joy that shone brightly.

"Thank you, Xiaoshu. I really like it."

Nan Shu was dazzled and, for some reason, suddenly thought of the little fox named Daji.

Nan Shu coughed lightly and looked away.

"I'm glad you like it too."

The reason she gave him a fountain pen was because she noticed that Xu Yunli's handwriting was very beautiful, vigorous and powerful, with sharp strokes, yet still elegant.

"like."

Xu Yunli murmured.

He rubbed his fingertip against the pen cap again, clearly enjoying it.

After delivering the gift, Nan Shu told Nan Punian about her trip to Liu Family Village to ask the birds for help.

"Okay, I will have the police officers guarding the unfinished building keep an eye out, and report it immediately if they see any red."

"Uh-huh."

……

Beijing.

At the top floor of the Wei Group. "I heard you were sick a few days ago? You don't seem to have recovered yet. Why don't you rest for a few more days?"

Kui Jingxing looked at the man with long legs crossed, dressed in a well-tailored suit, and teased him.

Nan Yannian looked up from the tablet, glanced at him, and then looked back at the screen.

'Knock knock'—

There was a knock on the door.

"Mr. Wei, here is a package for you that you need to sign for in person."

Lu Hong glanced at Nan Yannian, then pushed the man with the golden head who wanted to follow him in out with his other hand.

King Kong: ...Hmph! They're all bad people!
"what is this?"

Wei Jingxing looked at the express delivery box.

"It looks like a custom-made brand packaging box. The delivery person said it was a gift from Miss Nan to you."

Lu Hong glanced at the words on the gift box; they looked like they were in Russian or French at the same time.

But none of that matters. The most important thing is the person who gave the gift!
really.

Upon hearing the words "Miss Nan," Wei Jingxing's previous nonchalance vanished instantly. He stood up, walked to Lu Hong, signed the order, and accepted the gift box.

"Hard."

Look, even the tone of her voice when she speaks to him has become much gentler.

Lu Hong had a rich inner world, but he didn't show it on his face.

Clutching the shipping label, just as he was about to leave, he caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye that President Nan, who had been sitting on the sofa looking at documents with a blank expression, was now looking in his direction.

No, to be precise, it was looking at his hands.

Lu Hong: ?
"Mr. Nan... Shall I pour you a cup of coffee?"

Lu Hong, trying to decipher Nan Yannian's thoughts, cautiously asked.

After all, he's the client we're working with, so we have to be careful. What if, just maybe one day, Mr. Nan sees that he's smart, reliable, and capable, and tries to poach him with a hefty sum?

He needs to make a good impression on President Nan.

The salary increase for switching jobs can be several times higher.

"Need not."

Nan Yannian said indifferently, and continued to look at the screen, but after a long time, he did not swipe the screen once.

Lu Hong: ...The president's thoughts are really hard to guess.

Kui Jingxing opened the gift.

The first thing that catches the eye is an extremely exquisite gemstone cufflink, its color a deep ruby ​​red.

in fact.

This cufflink wasn't the most eye-catching among his many cufflinks, but it became exceptionally special because of the person who gave it to him.

"How can it be so beautiful?"

Kui Jingxing was so fond of it that he murmured to himself.

Nan Yannian paused, his fingertips pausing.

She looked up and stared at him.

Kui Jingxing was completely unaware. He carefully examined the cufflinks and observed for a while before discovering some clues.

From a certain angle, he finally saw clearly that on the side, there was a small intaglio carving with the character '景' (scenery) engraved on it.

Kui Jingxing had a sudden thought.

Because of its extremely discreet location, it doesn't detract from the overall sophistication at all, but the presence of this character makes the cufflinks even more unique.

This is a gift for him, a gift that belongs only to him.

A smile spread from the corners of his eyes to his eyebrows. Wei Jingxing really wanted to call the girl right now and tell her that he had received the gift and that he liked it very much.

But I managed to restrain myself.

The case in Hangzhou hasn't been resolved yet, and Xiao Shu must still be busy. Calling now would disturb her.

Wei Jingxing forgot that he was also a president with tens of thousands of employees under him. He had to deal with a lot of trivial matters every day and could occasionally take time to return to his life.

No matter how busy Nan Shu is, she wouldn't be so busy that she doesn't have time for a phone call or a few words.

A man in a secret crush might have a negative IQ.

Even domineering CEOs are no exception.

"gone."

Just as Wei Jingxing was still immersed in sweet joy.

A chillingly indifferent voice rang out.

Kui Jingxing was taken aback.

"you……"

Before he could finish speaking, Nan Yannian had already pushed open the door and left, leaving him with a cold and upright back view.

Wei Jingxing: ... (End of Chapter)
