The day I lived with the nanny

Chapter 195 The Final Gift

When this crystal shoe, which can be called a work of art, appeared in front of everyone, Xu Li showed some joyful expressions on her face, and walked slowly to the front of the crystal shoe, and began to watch it carefully.

Seeing Xu Li's performance, the thin man unconsciously showed a secret joyful expression.Chen Jiaju, who was standing beside Xu Ran, looked a little nervous, even showing uneasiness.

The host said: "I didn't expect this gentleman to order such a pair of beautiful crystal shoes as a gift for Miss Xu Li. I just don't know if the size is suitable?"

The thin man replied: "There is no need to worry about the size, because I have inquired about Miss Xu Li's foot size in detail before ordering this pair of crystal shoes, so these shoes are very suitable for Miss Xu Li."

At this time, the host turned his head and saw that Xu Li had brought the crystal shoes in front of him to watch carefully, so he said: "It seems that Miss Xu Li is full of interest in this pair of crystal shoes, I wonder if she will choose this gift What about it? Miss Xu Li, if you choose this gift, then let you try it on."

While everyone was waiting with bated breath for Xu Li to try on this pair of crystal shoes, Xu Li suddenly put the crystal shoes back on the table and said to the thin man with a smile: "Your gift is really beautiful, but it's not I want it, sorry."

The thin man immediately showed a look of astonishment. He really couldn't understand that such a pair of beautiful crystal shoes failed to attract Xu Li's heart.And Chen Jiaju took a long breath, and turned his eyes to Xu Li tightly.

All the guests present were in an uproar, but then there was a voice of joy. After all, there were not a few people who coveted the lucky spot. If the thin man was eliminated, he still had a chance to be selected.

I looked at the gifts they brought, and touched the music box in my arms. Although I didn't have much interest in the qualifications of this lucky person, I still felt a little shabby in my heart.

Then the two men next to me started whispering.

"Miss Xu Li's vision is really too high. The two gifts in front are precious items, and they didn't fall into her eyes."

"That's right, I also prepared a gift, I'll give it up secretly later, so as not to be ashamed and conspicuous."

I think the conversation between the two men in front of me represents the psychology of most people. After all, the people who come here are all executives of some companies, or they are private bosses. No one can afford to lose face.

While the guests below were discussing, the host began to speak into the microphone again, which was nothing more than words to encourage everyone to actively participate. After hearing this, the guests became enthusiastic again and began to participate in the treasure offering activity one after another.However, the treasures that will be presented next are nothing new, they are nothing more than jewelry, perfume or limited edition ladies' products.

And Xu Li never chose the gift she liked. About an hour passed, and the number of guests who came out to present treasures gradually decreased. I thought that a treasure presenting conference would end like this. Who knows that the present beside Xu Ran Chen Jiaju walked out with a smile.Now I suddenly have a feeling of enlightenment, maybe all this is just a show, if Chen Jiaju stands up to offer treasures, Xu Li will definitely choose his gift.Thinking of this, I couldn't help feeling a little contempt in my heart, and then leaned against the railing silently, waiting for the start of Chen Jiaju's performance.

When the host saw Chen Jiaju approaching, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, do you want to participate in this treasure offering meeting?"

Chen Jiaju nodded his head and said confidently: "Of course, and I'm bound to win the quota for this conference."

After Xu Li heard Chen Jiaju's words, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Then what gift does Mr. Chen plan to give Miss Xu Li this time?" The host asked Chen Jiaju in a very cooperative tone.

Chen Jiaju also slapped his hands a few times, and then a beautiful maid came out from the aisle of the boathouse at the back, holding a golden tray in her hand, and slowly walked up to him.Chen Jiaju took the tray from the maid and put it gently on the table, then said into the microphone: "The gift I gave to Lili represents eternity, and it also represents my sincerity to her. I hope she will not only like my A gift, and you can accept my love." After speaking, he gently lifted off the golden silk cloth covering it, revealing a golden box.

This box is not big, only about the size of a fist, and the packaging on the outside is so exquisite that one can't help but imagine what precious gifts can be put inside.

Chen Jiaju slowly picked up the brocade box, and gently opened the top cover with one hand, suddenly a burst of dazzling light slanted out from the brocade box, shining in everyone's eyes.

At this moment, the guests in front had already seen the contents of the brocade box, and couldn't help exclaiming: "I hope the blue diamond!"

I have heard some stories about the hope blue diamond. In fact, the hope blue diamond has the same appearance as the ocean inside the Titanic. The existing diamond "Hope" weighs 45.52 carats and has an extremely rare dark blue color.Not only is it beautifully blue, it is said, but it also seems to emit a menacing radiance, probably because its misty history, filled with strange and tragic experiences, has always brought unhappiness to its owner. Because of the bad luck of resistance.

For example, the French King Louis XIV who wore it, the French banker Hope, the Sultan Hamid of Turkey, and the head of the post office in Washington DC, McLane, did not seem to end well.However, this superstition was eventually cracked in the hands of a major American jeweler named Winston.However, this diamond has been donated to the country by Winston, and it is now hidden in the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, USA, but it is not known how it got into the hands of Chen Jiaju at this time.

Seeing the near rioting scene below, Chen Jiaju raised his head proudly and said: "I bought this piece of hope at a high price in the United States. It is the largest blue diamond in the world. I will buy it now." I decided to dedicate this diamond to Lili, and this diamond represents my love for her, which will never change for the rest of my life.”

Hearing Chen Jiaju's words, the guests below were silent for a while, and then burst into warm applause. Although there are not a few people below who want to express their love to Xu Li, some people have heard about Chen Jiaju and Xu Ran's family. , so I still sincerely wish the two of you.

The applause continued for a long time, and Chen Jiaju slowly came to Xu Li with the huge "hope" blue diamond in both hands, carefully put the "blue diamond" in front of Xu Li and said very attentively: "Lili, I hope you like the gift I gave you, I would like to invite you to a dance, I wonder if I can appreciate it?"

Xu Li smiled slightly, just when everyone thought Xu Li accepted Chen Jiaju's invitation, suddenly Xu Li said slowly: "Jia Kui, the gift you gave is not what I like, I'm sorry."

Everyone was in an uproar when they heard Xu Li's words, including me. They thought it was just a show specially arranged by Xu Li and Chen Jiaju, but they didn't expect Xu Li to reject Chen Jiaju on the spot.

"Lili, you..." Chen Jiaju couldn't help being surprised, even Xu Ran, who was always standing aside, widened his eyes and asked in a low voice.

Xu Li left Chen Jiaju who was in a daze and turned back to Xu Ran, said something in a low voice, Xu Ran's expression changed slightly, then nodded to Chen Jiaju, and Chen Jiaju nodded knowingly After nodding, he embarrassedly put away the "Hope" blue diamond in his hand, and quietly stepped aside.

The host stood up and said: "Since Mr. Chen's gift was not selected by Ms. Xu Li, who else has a gift to offer?"

The guests began to discuss again, but none of them had the intention of continuing to offer gifts. After all, even the son-in-law Xu Ran acquiesced failed, and none of them wanted to take this risk and lose this person. .

After a brief silence, the host said hastily: "Since everyone has no intention of continuing to offer gifts, then we have to end today's treasure offering meeting here, next."

"Wait." Just when the host was about to announce the end of the treasure offering meeting, Xu Li who was standing aside said suddenly.

"Miss Xu Li, what other orders do you have?" The host obviously didn't know why Xu Li was shouting, and asked while standing aside coldly looking at Xu Li in puzzlement.

Xu Li slowly walked to the front of the microphone, silently glanced at the guests below, and then suddenly said: "The treasure offering meeting for a few days is not over yet, and there is still one person who has not delivered his gift."

"Oh, who is it?"

"That's right, what gift will this person give Miss Xu Li? It will make Miss Xu Li look forward to it so much."

"Who is this mysterious person, and what precious gift will he offer?"

The people below began to discuss again, completely forgetting the embarrassing atmosphere when Chen Jiaju presented the treasure just now, and immediately began to eagerly look forward to this last gift.

Just when everyone was discussing, Xu Li's eyes suddenly penetrated through layers of obstacles like some kind of light, and suddenly shot at me. She lightly opened her red lips and looked at me standing in the corner of the deck and said: " Yixuan, why haven't you delivered your gift yet?"

All of a sudden, the focus of the audience was on me. It's not that I haven't been watched by so many people before, but at this moment, I suddenly felt uncomfortable. Other people's surprise and envious eyes are not to mention, it's just Chen Jiaju's jealousy. The angry gaze is enough to burn me to pieces without leaving a trace.

Following Xu Li's gaze, the host found me standing in the corner, and then stretched out his hand to me and said, "Sir, do you have any gifts to give?"

I don't know how to answer the supporter's questions. The most important thing is that Xu Li's attitude towards me has completely angered Chen Jiaju, and Chen Jiaju will naturally burn this anger on me.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Xu Li suddenly showed disappointment in her eyes, and said to me lightly: "Since you don't have a gift, forget it, I don't expect you to keep your promise." After finishing speaking, she wanted to turn around and leave go.

Xu Li's words deeply stimulated me, and I could see a little sadness from Xu Li's disappointed eyes. Although I don't want to provoke Chen Jiaju anymore, I don't want to hurt Xu Li's fragile heart.So he shouted at Xu Li's back: "Wait."

Xu Li turned around and looked at me happily, expecting me to keep my promise and send my gift.

I slowly came to the edge of the stairs, stood on the deck of the first floor and did not climb the stairs but looked up at Xu Li and said: "Xu Li, I did not break my original promise, I not only came to attend your birthday Banquet, and I also prepared a birthday present for you." After speaking, I took out the music box that I had been covering tightly from my arms and raised it in front of Xu Li: "This is the gift I gave you .”

Seeing the packing box in my hand, everyone began to guess what was wrapped in it again. Even Chen Jiaju was staring at the package in my hand closely, wanting to know what precious gift was inside. Comparable to his "Hope" blue diamond.

Seeing that I didn't intend to go up, the host waved to the waiter behind him, and the waiter hurried down, took the package in my hand and ran back to the second deck, and handed the box wrapped with the music box to the host human hands.

"Let's wait and see what kind of gift this gentleman wants to give Miss Xu Li." After finishing speaking, the host put the package on the table in front of him, carefully peeled off the strap, and opened the package. The box was slowly opened, revealing the ordinary music box inside.

"Boom..." When the music box appeared in front of everyone, it caused another commotion, but there was more disdain and regret. I didn't expect that the gift that Ms. Xu Li was most looking forward to would be an ordinary music box.

After seeing the music box, Chen Jiaju showed a satisfied and reassuring smile on his face. The corner of his eyes did not forget to sweep over my body, as if mocking my ignorance.

Xu Li, on the other hand, seemed a lot more excited. She walked quickly to the table, held the music box in her hand, and looked through it, her eyes admiring it.

"Sir, may I ask why you gave Miss Xu Li a music box?" The host asked puzzled seeing that there was only an ordinary music box in the box.

"I don't know what kind of gift I should give Xu Li. After picking and choosing, I think this music box is suitable as a gift for Miss Xu Li, especially the music in it is my favorite. Maybe Miss Xu Li Will like it too."

Just when I finished speaking, Xu Li had already unwound the music box and put it on the table. At this time, the song "Dream Wedding in Dreams" that Xu Li once played for me came out from the music box. ".
