Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Giving Her Expensive Jewelry
"Is that call for me?"
Fang Anning turned around in surprise, pointing to herself and asking?
It wasn’t strange for her to think so, as today was a workday. At this hour, the store was quite calm, seemingly only herself and He Tingchen were present.
The sales associate smiled, a blonde-haired, blue-eyed beauty, yet responded in very standard Chinese: "Yes."
"Why would you give me jewelry?" Fang Anning asked in confusion.
The sales associate didn’t answer, instead, she smiled again and introduced the row of jewelry in front of them, each piece valued over a million, each with its own merits.
Finally, the sales associate added: "I recommend this necklace for Miss, it matches your temperament very well, wearing it will definitely make you more beautiful and charming."
"Are you joking? Giving me such an expensive necklace for no reason?" Fang Anning frowned.
There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
Often pies falling from the sky are deceiving, bombs dropping are more realistic.
At first, she thought the sales associate was talking about gifting some cheap, insignificant pearls, just for their store’s signature and fame.
But now, seeing the jewelry the sales associate introduced to her, each one was highly valuable.
Such expensive jewelry just being given away, and to her, a customer who only looked but didn’t buy, she didn’t think this was her lucky day.
"This is instructed by our general manager, who said you can choose any piece to be given to you for free," the sales associate finally answered her question.
However, Fang Anning was even more puzzled.
Who is their manager?
She doesn’t even know who it is, and they are gifting her jewelry just like that, making her feel even more uneasy.
Not right.
Fang Anning suddenly turned her head towards He Tingchen, lowering her voice to ask: "Is this your store?"
She suddenly thought, although she is an unknown little nobody, standing next to her was a big shot.
Could this possibly be his jewelry store?
If that was the case, then she would not be reserved.
Having slept with him so many times, he ought to give her a gift to cheer her up.
"No," the man denied.
"Not your store? Then why are they giving me things? Could it be to please you? Should I accept it?"
Fang Anning was even more puzzled, questioning the man.
After all, it wasn’t to please her, a nobody. If it wasn’t because she was with He Tingchen, most people probably wouldn’t even know her name.
"Just pick a few more, and you’ll know," He Tingchen said.
Fang Anning raised her eyebrow, instantly understanding the man’s intention.
So bad!
But, she liked it.
Immediately pointing to the necklace the sales associate had recommended, and then pointing to another necklace she said: "I really like both of these, so I want both."
"This..."
The sales associate slightly furrowed her brow, the general manager had only mentioned gifting one item, not two.
These were invaluable gems, not just something you could give away freely, this she couldn’t decide.
"Sorry, I can’t make this decision, I need to make a phone call to our general manager for instructions," the sales associate politely said.
Fang Anning nodded.
The sales associate quickly made a call, her expression serious as she muttered "um" a few times before hanging up and smiling at Fang Anning: "Our manager said, it’s our store’s honor that Miss likes them, so both necklaces can be given to you."
"What should I do?"
Fang Anning turned her head in shock towards He Tingchen for help.
She didn’t dare to accept even one, let alone two.
"Pack them up," He Tingchen said.
Fang Anning frowned and asked, "Do I really have to accept them? These are two necklaces, and they are very expensive."
"Why not accept them if they are given?" He Tingchen said.
"Yes, Miss Fang should accept them! This is a small token from the Bai family to Miss Fang, please do not refuse."
At that moment, a man dressed in a white suit walked in from outside with an elegant voice.
Fang Anning turned around and was surprised by the man who walked in.
So handsome!
This was her first thought upon seeing Bai Yunyang.
She thought that men like He Tingchen represented the epitome of human appearance.
Only upon seeing Bai Yunyang did she realize that men could be so extraordinarily attractive.
Different from He Tingchen’s handsomeness, Bai Yunyang had a more delicate and elegant face yet it felt distinctly bold. His smooth facial lines had none of the harshness of rugged edges, and beneath the beautiful double eyelids were long and thick eyelashes that didn’t make him seem effeminate.
He appeared as if he had stepped out from an ancient portrait, somewhat ethereal, making him seem almost unreal.
"Who is he?" Fang Anning murmured.
Bai Yunyang was looking at Fang Anning tenderly at first, but he also paused slightly in surprise the moment he saw her eyes.
Yet that surprise soon disappeared, and he resumed a gentle smile.
Hearing Fang Anning’s question, he respectfully answered, "My last name is Bai, Bai Yunyang. My sister might have offended you yesterday, please do not hold it against us."
So he’s Bai Yunzhu’s brother?
Indeed, the whole family is beautiful.
However, it was clear that Bai Yunzhu had mixed-race features, a stunning mixed-race individual. But this Bai Yunyang didn’t show any mixed-race traits, could they be half-siblings?
"Mr. He, you don’t mind me giving a gift to Miss Bai, do you?" Bai Yunyang then asked He Tingchen.
He Tingchen coldly said, "Why would I mind something that’s given for free?"
"Let’s go!"
He Tingchen said to Fang Anning before turning and leaving the jewelry store first.
Fang Anning hurriedly followed him, but as she passed Bai Yunyang, she gave him a grateful smile.
After all, he had given her such an expensive gift, and more importantly, he was extremely good-looking.
Just looking at him was a pleasure; how could she possibly keep a straight face with such a handsome man?
"Isn’t Bai Yunyang and Bai Yunzhu born from different mothers? They don’t look quite the same, Bai Yunzhu is mixed-race, but Bai Yunyang doesn’t have any mixed-race features on his face."
Fang Anning caught up with He Tingchen and couldn’t help but mutter these thoughts to him.
He Tingchen’s face looked very unpleasant, but unfortunately, Fang Anning was too engrossed in her own words and didn’t notice.
He Tingchen’s expression darkened even more!
Suddenly, he pulled her over, and despite being in a public place, grabbed her chin and kissed her hard, effectively silencing her.
Fang Anning: "..."
She widened her eyes, her head tilted back, and her neck painfully cramped.
What is this man doing?
She struggled to recall her words just then, not understanding what could have angered him.
She must have angered him, as the kiss felt more like a bite, as if her lips were about to break!
Luckily, this was in the United States.
Even though their bold behavior was noticed by no one around, nobody seemed to find them strange.
"Why are you still looking up?"
The man finally let her go.
However, seeing that she was still maintaining her previous position with her head tilted back, he couldn’t help but get angry.
"My neck is...cramped, can’t move back."
Fang Anning was on the verge of tears.
