Chapter 740: Chapter 0741: Still, Buy Some Gifts to Take Back [Second Update]

Louise’s performance left Ye Qiu quite surprised. Either Louise could hold her drink really well, or maybe it had something to do with her religion?

Ye Qiu himself had used the "Primordial Five Emperors Technique" from his cultivation to sober up, otherwise, after downing that bottle of high-alcohol-content rice wine, he would have definitely been overwhelmed.

"Where are we heading now?"

Zhou Wenting asked.

"Let’s take a stroll in Chinatown and see if you like anything."

Chinatown in the 13th district of Paris is quite large, and at a glance, it’s all Huaxia architecture. There are many exquisite items here, some of which can’t even be found back home.

As Ye Qiu was leading Zhou Wenting forward, Louise followed alongside them.

When they came to a place selling delicate trinkets, Zhou Wenting and Louise seemed very interested in picking some out. Each was only about a dozen Euros and not very expensive, but they looked like handcrafted specialties.

Eventually, both Zhou Wenting and Louise bought a few trinkets which could be hung in a study room, on a car, or on a bag.

Just as Ye Qiu wanted to pay, Zhou Wenting had already taken out the money to settle the bill.

This time coming to France, Ye Qiu hadn’t exchanged any Euros, and as for the Huaxia Yuan, he still had tens of thousands from the last withdrawal at the bank.

After their purchases here, Zhou Wenting pulled Ye Qiu along, and they continued moving forward with Louise in tow.

Up ahead, they had vendors selling porcelain and traditional paintings, all looking very beautiful and reasonably priced. Zhou Wenting wanted to buy a set of blue and white porcelain and a landscape painting featuring the Yangtze River as a gift for Louise.

Zhou Wenting knew that Louise wasn’t lacking in money, but having come to France and received so much care from her and Ye Qiu, it was only right to give some gifts before returning home.

"Louise, which blue and white porcelain do you like?"

"They all look so exquisite!"

Louise said.

While dining at Count Charley’s grand castle, Ye Qiu noticed the dinnerware there appeared even more beautiful than these pieces of blue and white porcelain.

It was clear that Count Charley’s dinnerware was probably custom-made and of a higher grade.

Here, most were priced at a few hundred to a few thousand Euros a set, which wasn’t considered too expensive.

Zhou Wenting decided to buy a blue and white porcelain tea set for brewing tea as a gift for Louise and then choose a painting with the Yangtze River as the backdrop. The total price was around ten thousand Euros.

Moreover, the price could be haggled down by two to three thousand.

After Zhou Wenting negotiated with the shop owner, it was a little over seven thousand Euros.

"Zhou, is all this for me?"

Louise asked in surprise.

"Of course, these are gifts for you,"

Zhou Wenting said.

This, in turn, made Louise feel a bit embarrassed.

After all, she had taken such good care of Ye Qiu and Zhou Wenting these days, not only because Zhou Wenting was her classmate and good friend, but more so because of Ye Qiu treating Count Charley. She took the time out to care for the two because of Count Charley’s influence.

She hadn’t expected that now, before Zhou Wenting returned home, she would receive these gifts from her.

The tea set was somewhat heavy, and after Zhou Wenting made the purchase, Ye Qiu ended up carrying it.

In Chinatown, they covered about a third of the street, then left Chinatown. They hailed a taxi outside and headed straight for the Louvre Grand Hotel.

Once they entered the hotel, they planned to rest for a bit before going out for dinner in the evening.

Ye Qiu brought Louise’s blue and white porcelain tea set and the landscape painting to her door. Louise gave Ye Qiu a cool look before taking the items into her luxurious suite.

"Women, ah, women!"

Ye Qiu could only sigh in his heart; he knew that women from Huaxia and abroad might all be like this.

Ye Qiu returned to his own room, took off his shoes, stripped off his clothes, and went to the bathroom to relax in a comfortable bath. Then he took out his cell phone to call Ye Xue first.

It was now eight or nine in the evening Huaxia time, and Ye Xue was still in her office at the Imperial Cuisine Restaurant. Seeing that it was a call from Ye Qiu, she quickly asked, "Ye Qiu, have you come back?"

"Sis, I’m in Paris now. I’ll fly back tomorrow."

"That’s great, Mom and Dad have been missing you."

Ye Qiu had been away for a little over a week now, and both Ye Xue and Ye Weidong missed him. Although the three of them were not worried about Ye Qiu having any problems abroad, not having seen him for so long still felt a bit strange.

"Sis, what do you like?"

"Me? Anything is fine."

"Then I’ll buy some gifts for you, Mom, Dad, and Lingshow, not too many though—it’s too much trouble with customs."

Actually, Ye Qiu hadn’t planned on buying any gifts, but, thinking about his trip abroad, he decided to get them some gifts anyway.

"Just don’t spend too much money."

Ye Xue said.

Even though she knew Ye Qiu was wealthy, she did not want him to waste money unnecessarily.

"Sis, I’ll talk to you about it when I get back."

For some reason, Ye Qiu felt that his sister might be the nicest person to him.

After hanging up with Ye Xue, he initially wanted to call the other young ladies too, but instead decided to go back and give them a surprise.

In the bathroom, he took a comfortable bath, then came out, opened the curtains to the balcony, and lay on the large bed to sleep as the sunlight streamed in from outside.

It wasn’t until after six in the evening that Ye Qiu saw that there was still sunlight outside.

Since he had to buy gifts for the young ladies, he planned to go out to dinner with Zhou Wenting and Louise first and then go shopping at the mall.

After getting up and washing up, he dressed and called Zhou Wenting, who had already woken up, dressed, and was waiting for Ye Qiu.

Louise had woken up too.

After waiting for another half hour, they emerged from the suite, both women had changed into another set of clothes.

Meanwhile, Ye Qiu was still wearing the same outfit, and somehow, it seemed to lack taste.

"We’ll eat first, then go shopping at the mall afterward since we still need to buy some gifts for friends back in Jinling," Ye Qiu said.

"What shall we eat?" Zhou Wenting asked.

"Let’s have Huaxia cuisine in Chinatown. It looks like Louise has never tried it before."

The three of them went downstairs, and a luxury car provided by the Louvre Grand Hotel was ready at the entrance to take them directly to Chinatown in Paris.

Returning to Chinatown, Ye Qiu noticed that the nighttime Chinatown had many lights on and was crowded and lively.

Originally, Ye Qiu just wanted to hold Zhou Wenting’s hand, but when he reached out his hand to also hold Louise’s, to prevent her from getting lost in the crowd, Louise quickly shook his hand off and moved to the other side of Zhou Wenting, taking her hand instead.

Zhou Wenting did not notice what had just happened, but for some reason, Louise felt somewhat delighted inside.

"There are a lot of people now; there might be many thieves around."

Zhou Wenting whispered.

In fact, among the many major cities in Europe, the public safety in Paris is not considered very good, especially in recent years with the increase in the number of illegal immigrants, which possibly has made the safety situation even worse.
