Chapter 587: Chapter 586: Brother Hao, You Might as Well Kill Me...

"What should I gift her?" Wang Hao rubbed his chin, thinking for quite some time.

Just as he was pondering, the sound of a car engine revved up, and Wang Hao looked up to see Xia Xueqi driving our beloved car back!

"Brother Hao! I’m back!" Xia Xueqi parked the car, rolled down the window with a smile, and said, "Get in quick, it’s no parking here!"

"Ah, finally back, not an easy feat, huh? Is the car all fixed up?" Wang Hao opened the car door and got in while Xia Xueqi started the car and said as they drove off, "Yes, these kinds of cars are always a pain to fix. It took a long time. Brother Hao, where do you plan to go?" She didn’t forget to remind him, "Miss Ice Princess is returning soon, have you thought about what gift to give her?"

"I have, that’s exactly what I’ve been considering," Wang Hao massaged his temple and said, "just can’t decide what to give. Let’s head to the shopping center first."

The two headed straight for one of the largest shopping centers in Zhonghai City, Ganghui Henglong Square.

In Zhonghai, the twin towers are almost the symbol of Xujiahui, and the Ganghui Henglong Square connects right in the middle of both towers. Ganghui Henglong Square Shopping Center brings together sports and fitness, cultural entertainment cinemas, digital electronics, cosmetics, women’s shoes and bag accessories, children’s goods, and home products, featuring over four hundred specialty stores across themed areas on various floors. It covers all kinds of benchmark brands within the consumer market. If one were to buy a gift for a girlfriend, coming here would surely be the right choice.

"These are all luxury brands, oh," Xia Xueqi parked the car, her eyes sparkling as she looked around: "I’ve wanted to shop here for so long but never had the chance, mainly because I didn’t have the money, hehe."

"There will be plenty of chances in the future," Wang Hao replied casually and started walking inside.

Entering Henglong Square, they were surrounded by a dazzling array of shops. While walking, Xia Xueqi asked, "Brother Hao, do you have any rough ideas? If you don’t, I can give you some suggestions?

Eh? Xia Xueqi giving suggestions?

Well, considering we’re all girls, even if our thoughts aren’t exactly the same, they should at least be... somewhat similar, right?

"Sure," Wang Hao smiled, nodded, and said, "Let’s hear it. What do all of you like?"

"Well, generally speaking," Xia Xueqi counted on her fingers as they walked, "gifts for a girlfriend fall into a few major categories: tech and trendy product experiences, life assistance, and warm companionship. For the tech and trendy product experience, things like an iWatch or an iPhone, although they’re frequently updated, buying these..."

Then Wang Hao shrugged, "Do you think Ice Princess is the kind of person who needs these?"

Xia Xueqi: "..."

"Alright," Xia Xueqi smacked her forehead hard, "Miss Ice Princess certainly won’t lack these things, not to mention how many she might already have at home..." Then she quickly continued, "How about some skincare products? Good skincare can make women feel very comfortable using them. Even if Miss Ice Princess is... well, she’ll surely need something like moisturizing lotions, right?"

Well, that’s actually true. Our very own Ice Princess’s level of beauty is without question, and she would indeed use products like lotions.

So what brand should it be?

"What do you think is a good one?" Wang Hao looked at Xia Xueqi, "You must know more about this than I do, right?"

"I think Chanel is really good," Xia Xueqi immediately recommended a top-tier brand, "If you, Brother Hao, gift that..." Then she stumbled, "Forget it, I guess Miss Ice Princess must already have cartloads of cosmetics..."

At that moment, even Xia Xueqi became frustrated. She grabbed her hair in exasperation, "Ah, what else is there?"

Wang Hao: "..."

It seemed gifting something to a girl was an activity... incredibly capable of frustrating someone.

"How about a fitness tracker?" Xia Xueqi suggested again, "It’s essentially a gym buddy! She probably can’t do without it..." Then she second-guessed herself, but soon her eyes brightened again, "What about a wireless printer?! Or a Samoyed portable charger?! Look over there, Brother Hao, it’s super soft and adorable! Makes you happy even when your phone runs out of battery during busy work!"

Wang Hao glanced at the shop nearby...

Hmm, not sure if Ice Princess would like it, but it looks like our agent sure does...

But then again, you can’t be too sure; after all, women generally like fluffy things. Since Xia Xueqi likes it, Ice Princess might as well. What if she really likes it?

"Let’s go, buy it first," Wang Hao said, leading Xia Xueqi into the electronics store without another word. He bought one and asked, "How about this one, ha... Manufacturer: Bai’s Electric Group Co., Ltd..." He turned to Xia Xueqi, "Is this company the Bai family’s?"

Xia Xueqi: "Yeah... it seems to be..."

To give something made by her family’s company to the daughter of the family’s head, this... that... this...

He stuffed it into Xia Xueqi’s hands: "Here, you can have it. I reckon our ’someone’ probably won’t need this..."

Xia Xueqi: "..."

Xia Xueqi was torn! Xia Xueqi was frustrated! Xia Xueqi was pulling her hair out!

Why does giving a gift suddenly feel so difficult?!

"Or, Brother Hao, shall we look at clothes?" Xia Xueqi whispered, "Women love buying clothes. You give her a beautiful outfit, and she will definitely be happy!"

"Better not," Wang Hao shook his head, "She’s coming back from France with six cases of clothes and about a dozen pairs of shoes..."

Xia Xueqi: "..."

"How about some gold and silver jewelry? Jade and gems?" Xia Xueqi pointed to a jewelry store on the second floor, "What do you think about that?"

Actually, for a regular woman, a necklace or earrings would be fine, but for Bai Yaning, it’s different.

Wang Hao: "She switches them every day, I don’t know what she’d like. Should I buy a bunch?"

"Buy... buy a bunch?" Xia Xueqi was speechless again, "The fewer of these things, the more precious they are. If you buy too many, they won’t reflect their value... How about giving her a dog?"

"No way," Wang Hao decisively shook his head, "What if she doesn’t like the breed? Can’t just throw it away, can you?"

With dogs, even if someone likes them, the person really needs to pick one out personally, otherwise it’s hard to deal with if they don’t like it, right?

This time Xia Xueqi got tough and blurted out several gift ideas in one breath: "A creative music box with rotating figures! A plush aromatherapy gift set! A French Monbento dual-layer lunchbox! A creative hourglass companion night light! A Sky Garden creative flowerpot! A micro-forest insulated mug!"

But for each one she mentioned, Wang Hao shook his head—

"Nope!"

"Not happening!"

"No way!"

"Still no!"

"Argh!" Xia Xueqi completely collapsed, scratching her hair in frustration, "Brother Hao, just kill me now, I can’t think of anything else!"
