I Want To Move In Next Door-Chapter 56 Giving Hubby A Kiss (2) _1
Facing the two people expressing their joyful gratitude, Xia Wanโan curved her eyes in a smile.
As the waiter began to serve the dishes, Ai Jiang stood and went to the restroom. ๐๐ซ๐๐ฒ๐จ๐๐๐๐๐ฏ๐๐น.๐๐จ๐บ
Seeing her leave, Xia Wanโan slipped another velvet box from her bag, shoving it into Song Youmanโs bag, "This is for you, you said you liked it last time, so I brought it for you. And... donโt let Ai Jiang see it."
"Why?" Song Youman asked with confusion, mouth full.
"Iโm afraid it might make her overthink, and also, Ai Jiang isnโt like us, she doesnโt need to consider too much when spending money. Gift-giving has always been an act of reciprocation, if we give her gifts, sheโll feel obligated to return the favor later. So when you choose gifts in the future, try selecting ones that are slightly cheaper, to lessen her pressure... And if we buy something expensive, letโs not talk about it in front of her, so she wonโt feel upset or feel like she doesnโt fit in..."
"Oh... okay..." Song Youman didnโt really understand the twists and turns of a girlโs world, but she knew Xia Wanโan was definitely right, so she nodded in acknowledgment.
Fearful of being overheard by Ai Jiang, Xia Wanโan quickly changed the topic.
However, neither she nor Song Youman realised that Ai Jiang, who had forgotten to bring her sanitary pad and returned, was right behind them, listening to their conversation without missing a single word.
Keeping their conversation from her, Ai Jiang ended up pretending she hadnโt returned yet and went back to the bathroom.
Once she entered one of the bathroom stalls, her usually timid and delicate face turned cold.
In a kinder light, they were being considerate of her, but in a harsher one, they were looking down on her...
With this thought, Ai Jiang reached out, took off the golden bracelet that Xia Wanโan just gave her, and threw it in the trash.
They, both hailing from good families with quality education, naturally shared a lot more common topics. Their relationship was naturally much better compared to that with her... but initially, she expended great effort befriending them only because they were the best-born among her classmates. If she wanted to enter their circle, she needed to latch on to them. She could only meet those from high society by their association, just like this time entering the Han Family, it was all thanks to Han Zhijin. At the end of the job interview, she purposely made a call to Han Zhijin in front of the interviewers...
Ai Jiang closed her eyes, took in one deep breath, and another, waiting to calm herself. She then, despite the disgust, bent down and picked that golden bracelet from the trash bin.
She took the bracelet to the washstand, rinsed it thoroughly for a while, dabbed it dry with a tissue, wore it back on her wrist, and returned to the dining room.
Han Zhijin had arrived and greeted her as she approached, "Ai Jiang."
Ai Jiang pursed her lips, smiling shyly, then showed her wrist to Han Zhijin, "Look, this is what Wanโan gave me. Isnโt it beautiful? I really like it!"
...
The old house of the Han Family.
The enormous dining room was filled with dishes of all sorts.
At the marble dining table set for over ten people, only Han Jingnian sat.
