417: Chapter 423: Mature, Naive (3) 417: Chapter 423: Mature, Naive (3) It’s hard to believe that a woman, all prim and proper, who grew up in Europe and Arica, could still be so shy!
But I must say, the more Situ Xuan watched her, the more intrigued he beca.
He took a slight step back and had the clerk find the sa handbag to complete the set, then he raised his hand, “This set is nice, wrap it up for .”
Although before, Situ Xuan had ntioned that he wanted to give her a dress, a whole set like this would cost at least tens of thousands!
And that’s not to ntion the Tiffany necklace!
She didn’t know Situ Xuan very well, how could she possibly accept such expensive gifts from him?
Seeing Situ Xuan lifting his credit card, she imdiately stepped forward, “Mr.
Situ, I should buy these clothes myself.”
These past few months, working with Yu Zexiao, she may not have been able to resign, but her monthly salary was indeed high.
When she started as his assistant, her monthly salary had already broken ten thousand.
Later on, to appease her, Starlight Entertainnt promised to double her wages, and they truly did…
She didn’t need to spend money on food and lodging, and in just a few short months, she had saved up a substantial amount of salary.
She might not be good at anything else, but she definitely had enough to buy this set of clothes.
Situ Xuan was suddenly a bit surprised.
He had several female companions in the past, who, upon hearing that they were getting sothing for themselves, their eyes would light up.
They’d even specifically choose the freshest, priciest items and slather them on themselves.
Even young ladies from families of equal status who heard that he was buying sothing for them never refused, but happily accepted instead.
He had never seen soone like Jian Anning, who was actually willing to pay for it herself!
He smiled slightly, “I’ve never been one to let a woman foot the bill.”
“But it’s too expensive,” Jian Anning shook her head.
She had her own personal boundaries.
Unless it was a boyfriend with whom she was discussing marriage, she wouldn’t accept such valuable gifts from soone.
“In my eyes, none of these items are as important as one of your smiles,” Situ Xuan said with a light smile and promptly opened his wallet, signing a blank check with his na written in grand flourishes and handed it to the clerk, “This amount should be enough.”
The total cost for the entire set of clothes, shoes, handbag, and the Tiffany necklace wouldn’t exceed two hundred thousand.
But with a flick of his wrist, Situ Xuan wrote a total of two hundred thousand without considering asking for change.
The clerk took the check to the counter to verify it, and in the store, only the two of them were left.
Situ Xuan’s grey-blue eyes were unblinkingly fixed on her.
His gaze made her face feel ablaze.
From past to present, the closer n around her, other than Lu Jiayuan, were Yu Zexiao.
Lu Jiayuan aside, since they never had close contact, but Yu Zexiao—this guy was often violent, and often aggressive.
Situ Xuan was different.
He wasn’t like Lu Jiayuan who could feign gentleness, nor like Yu Zexiao’s extrely irritable nature.
Situ Xuan was gentle, soft as a drizzle, yet undoubtedly close, enveloping you in a way that left you unsure how to refuse.
A mature, stable man with a successful career, if he truly took a fancy to a woman, would be just so in his approach.
“Mr.
Situ, acting this way, I don’t know how to continue interacting with you,” she said with a frown, looking helplessly as he paid the bill, yet feeling a tinge of retreat in her heart.
