Chapter 1408 - 1570: Why Does It Suddenly Feel Like I’ve Been Snubbed?
Yege sat on the chair, waiting and waiting, but Chu Xici still didn’t come over to say a word to her.
This... after receiving the gift, couldn’t he at least say thank you?
Really, she put so much thought into preparing the gift, and he didn’t even show any appreciation. It really makes one feel upset!
She felt a bit down; without a response, she wouldn’t be able to sleep!
Finally, she got up, walked to the door of Chu Xici’s room, and knocked.
"Are you asleep?"
Soon, the door opened. Yege raised her eyes and met Chu Xici’s clear and profound gaze.
"What’s up?"
Chu Xici asked with a smile.
Yege: "..."
Why did she suddenly feel like she was at a loss?
He actually asked her what’s up?
This...
Yege took a deep breath, her hands twisting together.
"Um, I just wanted to ask you, the gift I gave you... have you opened it?"
Chu Xici chuckled softly.
"Yeah, I opened it!"
Hearing this, Yege’s eyes lit up, and she looked up, "Well, do you like it?"
A flicker of interest passed through Chu Xici’s eyes. He reached out, pinched his chin with his thumb and forefinger, sighed, and said, "Well, it’s so dark and ugly!"
Upon hearing Chu Xici’s comment, Yege felt a breath stuck in her chest, making her feel stifled and pained.
Her chest was heavy with sadness, and her nose started to tingle.
Dark and ugly?
Is that his evaluation of her gift?
She had put in so much effort to prepare such a unique gift and had carefully chosen that photo of hers after much consideration.
He probably hadn’t poured water into the cup yet, so he hadn’t seen her smiling face on it.
But now, hearing "dark and ugly," it completely broke her heart.
She never expected him to say something like that!
"Fine, just give it back to me then!"
Saying this, Yege pushed past Chu Xici and walked toward his room.
The cup should be on the table!
Hmph, since he doesn’t like it, she’ll just take it back and never give him another gift!
"I’ll never give you a gift again in this lifetime!"
Yege laid down the harsh words like a little firecracker.
Chu Xici stood at the door, watching her angry figure, and couldn’t help but laugh.
She’s truly like a little firecracker, igniting at the slightest spark!
As for Yege, she took a few steps into Chu Xici’s room and saw the cup on the table. At this moment, steam was rising inside the cup, and there was her bright, joyous smile on its surface.
Suddenly, Yege was a bit stunned.
This...
He had already seen it, yet this guy actually lied to her!
How despicably bad!
Yege turned her head in anger, glaring at Chu Xici.
"You are such a liar! So hateful!"
Chu Xici laughed, "I was just joking with you. I didn’t expect you to take it seriously!"
Yege: "..."
Come to think of it, how could he dislike the gift she gave?
It really was... her own oversight!
Instantly, Yege felt a little embarrassed.
At that moment, Chu Xici came forward, extended his arms, and gently embraced Yege. At that instant, Yege felt like her body was electrified, with fireworks popping all around.
And then, Chu Xici’s clear and gentle voice sounded.
"Silly, the gift you gave... I really... like it a lot!"
