Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s-Chapter 2545 - 2481: Of Course It’s for You
Hu Xiangyong glanced at her and said, "Will you help entertain guests at the shop when the time comes? Let Old Song take you for measurements tomorrow, choose fabric, and I’ll give you a custom-made cheongsam, along with this."
He leaned over, opened a drawer, and took out a velvet box, handing it to her.
"Choose one that complements this necklace."
"What is it?"
Ji Yuzhi took the box and opened it.
A string of sparkling ruby necklace appeared before her eyes.
The bright blood-red hue was so beautiful that it lit up her eyes.
"Oh my, it’s so beautiful." She carefully picked up the necklace and looked at Hu Xiangyong, "To borrow for the opening day?"
Ruby necklace, how much would this string cost?
Hu Xiangyong laughed, "Borrow? Am I that stingy in your eyes? Of course, it’s a gift for you."
Ji Yuzhi looked at him with surprise, a bit disbelieving.
To gift her something so precious?
"A gift for me?"
"Why, as my girlfriend, do you think I can’t even gift a gemstone necklace?" As Hu Xiangyong spoke, he took the necklace, "Let me put it on for you to try."
As his hands moved behind her to clasp the necklace, Ji Yuzhi felt herself being embraced.
The man’s deep scent enveloped her entirely.
She felt a bit dizzy.
"Hmm, looks good, it suits you."
Before putting it on, Hu Xiangyong whispered in her ear, "Do you know where rubies look the best?"
"W-where?"
Ji Yuzhi asked.
"On a beautiful woman’s snow-white skin, it enhances its beauty and elegance more than any fabric could."
As he said this, his fingers were already unbuttoning her shirt.
Ji Yuzhi felt weak all over, she thought it wasn’t quite right, but she surprisingly found it hard to push him away at that moment.
Until her shirt was fully unbuttoned, the cold jewel pressed against her skin, making her body shiver.
Just as she was about to push Hu Xiangyong away, he leaned in again to her ear, kissed her earlobe, and softly said, "Let me see what else you’re missing, a pair of pearl earrings..."
Ji Yuzhi felt completely powerless.
Though she wasn’t young, she had always kept herself pure and never been so close to a man.
Moreover, Hu Xiangyong’s teasing was so effective that until he held her down on the bed, she was dizzy and confused about how things had escalated to this point.
After a brief moment of pain, there was an overwhelming dizziness and infatuation.
After school, Chiang Xiao wrote a letter to Xu Lin.
She decided to renovate the neighboring courtyard entirely, and it would definitely require a lot of woodworking, so she trusted Xu Lin’s craftsmanship and wrote to ask if he could come over for two months.
The news of the deployment was finally officially announced.
The Meng family also received the news, and only then did Old Meng and Meng Chaojun realize that Meng Xinian was going to be deployed to Kuli.
Compared to the calmness of Chiang Xiao at this time, the Meng Family Father and Son couldn’t suppress their anxiety and worry; even Meng Chaojun left the hospital to join Old Meng and came to the house.
They initially thought they would see Chiang Xiao with reddened eyes, but found her busy painting, with a bit of paint smeared on her face, looking like a little cat. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Under normal circumstances, Old Meng might not have resisted laughing at her, but he couldn’t smile now.
"Little, didn’t you get the news?"
"Grandpa, are you talking about Brother Xinian’s deployment to Kuli?" Chiang Xiao had nearly completed a painting of ancient town scenery. Earlier, it was Ding Haijing who opened the door and led the Meng Family Father and Son to the study; she was still finishing the final steps without stopping.
