Jiang Yu noticed that the call wasn’t ending any time soon. She wasn’t in the habit of listening to other people’s calls. She wanted to leave but Jiang Chenglang waved at her and gestured for her to sit down.
Jiang Yu thought for a moment and decided to stay.
However, she didn’t know what was being said on the other end. Jiang Chenglang didn’t speak for a long time. He must be listening to the person on the other end.
Jiang Yu patiently waited until Jiang Chenglang finally replied, “Alright, I understand.”
Then, the person on the other end said something else. Jiang Chenglang frowned and hung up.
Jiang Yu looked up at him.
Jiang Chenglang pinched the space between his eyebrows as if he had just encountered something troublesome. However, when he looked at Jiang Yu, he squeezed out a smile and asked, “Why are you looking for me, Xiao Yu?”
It wasn’t every day that Jiang Yu comes looking for him, so of course, he didn’t want her to leave and miss out on a good opportunity to communicate with her.
Jiang Yu placed the item in her hand on the table and said, “This is for you.”
Jiang Chenglang asked in surprise, “Is this a gift for me?”
Jiang Yu replied, “Yes.”
Jiang Chenglang was still a little stunned. After all, Jiang Yu had always been cold to him. Now that she had suddenly given him a gift, he was a little flattered.
Jiang Chenglang looked at the box and recognized it instantly. It was an internationally famous luxury watch brand. All the watches in their catalog were expensive and would cost no less than a million yuan each.
His fingers that were touching the box paused. He only gave Jiang Yu 300,000 yuan a month as an allowance. Where did she get the money?
Remembering their meeting with An Yimin, Jiang Chenglang was certain that the An family was not rich and certainly could not afford to spend hundreds of thousands just to buy him a watch.
Thinking back to how Jiang Yu said that she was rich, to be able to buy this and give it to him so calmly, her assets must be far greater than a million yuan. She looked like she had just given him a simple slice of cake.
“Xiao Yu, this gift…”
Jiang Yu’s tone was calm and indifferent. “It’s just a return gift. You don’t need to feel burdened.”
Jiang Chenglang said, “But this gift is too expensive.”
Jiang Yu remained expressionless. “The price is about the same as the necklace you gave me last time. I told you before, I don’t like to take things from others for free. I’m giving this to you, you just have to accept it. There’s no need to give me another gift in return.”
She frowned and said, “If you do that, I’ll have to get another thing for you. Why is there any need for this routine?”
Jiang Chenglang: “…”
He remembered.
It was the green jade necklace that he had given Jiang Yu the first time they met. Jiang Yu did not like it. Later on, he had exchanged it for a purple-colored one. However, after so long, Jiang Chenglang had forgotten about it.
It was just that, he has never seen Jiang Yu wear that necklace before.
She was always clean and did not wear any accessories.
The thing is, after Jiang Yu had earned her first sum of money, she had been prepared to choose a gift for Jiang Chenglang. However, she had been delayed by other matters and this issue was at the bottom of her list of priorities. She had almost forgotten about it.
Later on, when she was preparing a gift for Jiang Xingyi, she suddenly remembered it. She took the opportunity to browse the internet and randomly chose a watch worth four million yuan ad paid for it. The watch had just arrived today and Jiang Yu immediately brought it over.
Once the item was delivered, Jiang Yu’s task was completed.
Seeing that Jiang Chenglang did not seem to have any intention of talking about the phone call, she did not force him.
“Since there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving.”
Jiang Yu did not feel any need to stay there. She turned around and was about to leave when Jiang Chenglang called out, “Xiao Yu, wait a moment.”
