Chapter 814: Chapter 482 A Bunch of Idiots Messing Things Up!
Sean Knight was one of the four in Xiaoyi’s dorm, who had visited the island and hung out with her before.
One night, Xiaoyi and the others had a bonfire party, and later went fishing. Xiaoyi had invited Sean Knight, but he did not go.
Afterward, they returned home.
In fact, once back domestic, Xiaoyi was still somewhat looking forward to something, after all, Sean Knight had asked for her address and added her contact information.
Keeping in touch that way was actually quite nice.
However, what made Xiaoyi a bit depressed was that Sean Knight had never taken the initiative to contact her, which was quite embarrassing for her.
Her roommates even teased her, joking that she had so assertively added someone else’s contact information, yet the other party had not contacted her, which was a real failure.
Xiaoyi knew her roommates were jealous of her, and although she felt a bit unhappy, she did not show it.
However, she couldn’t stop thinking about what happened on the island; she always believed that since Sean Knight had taken her contact information, he would definitely get in touch with her. The fact that he hadn’t was probably just due to him being held up by some matters.
University life was a time full of possibilities to look forward to.
Upon receiving the package, they unpacked the cardboard box and discovered a beautifully wrapped gift box inside, gathering the roommates around.
Seeing the address, one roommate asked:
"Xiaoyi, do you also have friends in this city?"
Xiaoyi shook her head, asking with some confusion:
"I don’t think so. I don’t even know who sent it..."
"It’s not...not some dangerous item, is it?" one roommate asked somewhat worried:
"A stranger’s parcel is best left unopened, should we report it to the police?"
Another roommate shook her head, saying:
"If it’s wrapped so beautifully, it shouldn’t be anything dangerous, right?"
The last roommate made a suggestion:
"Doesn’t it have an address on it? Just call and ask, then we’ll know, won’t we?"
Saying that, she picked up the address and started looking for the phone number.
The roommate who had said there was no danger, who had also gone to Big Island with Xiaoyi and had mocked her, picked up the packing box and shook it vigorously, weighing it and said:
"I think it’s just a promotional gift, it couldn’t possibly be anything dangerous. Dangerous items are either very heavy or roughly packaged, how could they be this exquisite?"
After saying that, she went ahead and opened the wrapping paper of the gift box.
Seeing that it was already opened, Xiaoyi felt a little worried at first, then after there was no explosion, nor any smell of blood, she also peeked curiously into the box.
Layer by layer, the box was opened, revealing the items wrapped in plastic foam.
"Ah! It’s red coral!" the keen-eyed roommate immediately recognized it.
The red coral was placed in a small craft pot, looking like a miniature bonsai.
"It couldn’t be fake, could it?" a roommate asked with a twinge of jealousy.
"There’s a certificate too!" another roommate noticed the certificate inside the box.
"Certificates can be faked too..."
"It’s real." Xiaoyi suddenly thought of Sean Knight, her eyes brightening as she took the coral and said, "We saw this coral the other day when we went on a trip to Big Island. I didn’t expect that..."
"I didn’t expect that person to really send it!" the roommate who had gone with her said in surprise, "At that time, we all thought that he might have been fooling you—this piece of coral, it must be worth over 10,000, right?"
"Really? Is it that expensive?"
"It wasn’t that expensive on Big Island, more like just a fraction of the price, but back then there was no certificate, so we couldn’t bring it back."
"Now with a certificate... it’s so beautiful!"
Looking at the blood-red coral, the roommates all expressed their admiration.
They were praising not only the coral but also Xiaoyi’s luck.
The whole dorm knew about Xiaoyi’s encounter on Big Island where she persuaded a young man not to buy red coral, and then he asked for her address and contact information.
Originally, many people had laughed at Xiaoyi, but now that he had sent the coral, it proved the saying "One who laughs last, laughs best."
A smile appeared on Xiaoyi’s face, but she said:
"This is too precious, I thought he would send me just a little piece of coral..."
Xiaoyi really hadn’t expected Sean Knight to send her an entire branch of red coral with seven or eight branches.
The coral was truly beautiful, and she had no intention of returning it.
"If you don’t want it, give it to me!" a roommate said eagerly.
"Who said I don’t want it?" Xiaoyi clutched the coral tightly and said, "How could I not want it? If anything... I’ll just send the money over."
Xiaoyi thought to herself, after all, she had contact information, and now she had an address as well, wouldn’t it be very convenient to find him?
Having said that, she hugged the coral and crawled into her own bed, drawing the curtains closed.
"Let us take another look, please!" a roommate said.
"Don’t look anymore, it’s settled," Xiaoyi carefully placed the coral back into the box, then flipped open her mobile phone, planning to contact Sean Knight.
The young man with glasses, Felix Reed, who was also her friend and a classmate at the same university, had spoken ill of Sean Knight during their trip back, prompting her to block him.
She never believed Sean Knight was that kind of person.
Xiaoyi messaged Sean Knight, asking:
"The red coral was sent by you, right? Thank you, but I can’t simply accept such a valuable gift from you. How much was it? I’ll pay you back."
Sean Knight did not reply because he was busy with Oliver Brooks, working on something new for the courtyard.
Xiaoyi saw that Sean Knight had not responded, which disappointed her.
At that time, the bespectacled man, Felix Reed, had arrived downstairs of Xiaoyi’s dormitory.
Although Xiaoyi had blocked him, Felix Reed had not given up. Xiaoyi came from a superior family background, excelled in her studies, and was also beautiful, which were more than enough reasons for Felix Reed to chase after her without any concern for his own pride.
