The gift that the five of them got along with Tianci was just more clothes for Xiaoyun.
Even Lily's gift that she brought for fun for Xiaoyun was a hat for him.
"Did you all just bring clothes for Xiaoyun?" Kate asked curiously as she and Anna weren't participating in the gift competition.
"Well, I don't know what to get him besides this." Yueyue shrugged.
"Really? He doesn't have any hobby or interest that he enjoys?" Anna curiously asked.
"Yeah, all he does is work or rest. He almost has no hobby at all." Yueyue pointed out.
"Does he just have no ti for a hobby?" Anna suggested.
"No, he has plenty of free ti the past few weeks. He just rather lay there or watch us work when he doesn't have anything to do."
Yuqi imdiately thought back to two days ago when Xiaoyun was just sitting on the office sofa and watching her and Shuli working.
"You guys are worrying too much for no reason. Xiaoyun himself said that he wanted to get new clothes since a few of his old clothes had holes in them." Wuli chid in.
"Hey Shuli, do you know what mom brought?"
Nami asked quietly on the side as the others were in a heated debate if Xiaoyun was really going to think clothes as a gift would be good.
"I don't know what's inside. But the bag was pretty light."
As Shuli replied, she suddenly rembered sothing.
"Oh, right, I almost forgot. Leyan decided to buy a bag for you to gift to Xiaoyun... Here it is."
Shuli moved the last two unopened bags and gave the one on the right to Nami.
"That's so nice of her... I really need to say thank you for her later——"
Nami took a peek inside the bag, and she instantly turned quiet, her face blushing red.
"What's inside?" Shuli got a little curious as Nami closed the bag back up.
"I think you gave the wrong bag," Nami replied without answering Shuli's question.
"Wrong bag? But Leyan told yours is the blue on the right."
Shuli tried to grab the bag over to check, but Nami imdiately moved it behind her.
"I guess it's the right bag then. Let's wait for Xiaoyun and Leyan to co back to let him decide who the winner is." Nami shifted the attention away from her.

When dinner was finished, they finally showed their gift to Xiaoyun in the living room.
"Thank you all for the gifts... I really appreciate it."
"So, which one do you think is the best?" Yuqi asked the question that was on everyone's mind.
"Can I say I love them all equally?" Xiaoyun asked softly.
"What do you think?" Yuqi asked back.
As they all looked toward Xiaoyun, waiting for his answer, Xiaoyun suddenly shifted the attention away from himself.
"Leyan, what's inside your bag?" Xiaoyun asked curiously.
"I-I'll show it later," Leyan replied with a nervous look on her face.
"Just show it, Mom, no need to hide it."
Yueyue tried to make Leyan open the bag, but she held a tight grip on it.
"I can't decide if I can't see all the gifts."
Xiaoyun imdiately used the excuse to get himself out of trouble.
"Leyan, just show it. Why so shy about it?" Wuli decided to speak up.
"If you want, we can leave." Kate and Anna both suggested it as they felt it might be the reason why Leyan was held back.
"No, no, it's fine... I'll take it out." Leyan slowly reached inside the bag and took the item out.
It was a bottle of wine, but it wasn't just any wine, as Kate imdiately noticed the word on it.
"Oh my god! It's a bottle of Romanée-Conti Grand Cru! Where did you get that?" Kate stood up in excitent as she asked the question.
"A soldier was selling it at a street stall for twenty food stamps... Is this wine super expensive or sothing?" Leyan asked as she got a little confused by Kate's reaction.
"A soldier? But everything that they loot in the city has to be sold to the governnt or kept for themselves to use." Wuli imdiately got a little concerned.
"It's not that strictly reinforced as long as it's not overstepping the line too much."
Xiaoyun didn't seem as concerned as the lax-designed looting rule was intended to favor the soldiers to drive higher recruitnt.
"Still, to answer your question. Yes, this bottle is expensive. I rember seeing it on one of my business trips before, and it had nearly five thousand dollars in a bottle." Xiaoyun explained.
"Damn, that's expensive... And only for twenty food stamps." Nami spoke what everyone had thought in their mind.
"Ahem, anyway, here's your bottle..."
As Leyan handed the bottle over to Xiaoyun, she whispered sothing to Xiaoyun's ear.
"You sure?" Xiaoyun looked a little surprised by Leyan's words.
"Yes. I'm sure." Leyan replied softly.
"Okay then..."
As Xiaoyun put the bottle inside the drawer next to the TV, Yuqi noticed a closed bag that Nami was holding.
"Nami, when did you go outside and bring sothing?" Yuqi asked curiously.
"Mom brought it for as a gift." Nami nervously replied as she crumbled the top of the bag on accident.
"Co on, Nami. There's no need to be shy," Leyan smirked as she pushed Nami forward.
"Mom... Why did you bring this for ? I can't wear this."
"Because you don't have one. All of us already have one in our closet. I even made sure it matches your size." Leyan pressured Nami to show the gift.
"What are you two talking about?"
Xiaoyun got a little confused as Leyan made it sound like the gift Nami held was a piece of cloth for her.
After a short mont, Nami walked over to Xiaoyun and opened the bag just wide enough for him to see only.
It was a full set of lingerie with a small tag that said size S printed on the fabric on the back.
"Leyan, did you really need to buy this for Nami?"
"You wanted us to all wear it together one day, no? I'm just fulfilling your wish." Leyan replied as her face began to blush.
"What is inside the bag?" Yuqi asked the question that was on everyone's mind besides the three that stood across from them.
"You'll see it eventually." Xiaoyun left it off at that.
"Now you saw all the gifts. So, who won?" Wuli decided to shift the topic back to the start.
"Um, give a mont to think..."
As Xiaoyun thought about it, all six of them were staring at him with intense pressure in their eyes.
Xiaoyun knew that all six of them wouldn't actually care less who he picked, but he didn't want to hurt any of them by picking a favorite in front of everyone.
It only left two options left for him to pick.
At first, Xiaoyun thought of picking Lily as it would make all six of them equal, as none of them would be the winner.
But rembering how nervous Nami was regarding him and Lily and the awkward mont the last ti he accidentally walked in, he decided to go with Tianci.
"I think Tianci's taste in clothing is nice. It's slick, and the navy blue feels very practical."
"Soone already picking their fiancee over their wives." Yuqi mockingly spoke out.
"Not surprised, a certain sobody always loves new things and forgets about the old ones," Yueyue spoke out next.
"You two, that's enough." Leyan stopped the two from taking it any further as she noticed Tianci was getting a little nervous.
"Truly the saddest day when his first wife still tolerates a certain sobody kept expanding his haram," Wuli added to the fla with a sarcastic tone.
"Yeah, and it seems certain sobody just doesn't appreciate beauty." Shuli looked down at the gift she had spent so many hours shopping for.
"Okay, okay, everyone's gift is amazing, and everyone is a winner."
Xiaoyun tries to retract his statent, but it doesn't do anything.
"Hmph! I'm sleeping alone today."
Yuqi and Yueyue both went upstairs back to their rooms.
"I-I'm not wearing this any ti soon. I-I'm getting a little sleepy now. Goodnight, everyone." Nami went upstairs with the bag still in her hand.
"You still don't understand girls don't you Xiaoyun?" Wuli looked over to Xiaoyun before going upstairs along with Shuli.
"What did I do wrong?" Xiaoyun turned over to Leyan as he couldn't understand what went wrong.
"No offense to you, Tianci. We all welco you to our family... But this idiot is just too dumb to think...
Also, I'm sleeping alone today. Go sleep in the guest room or sothing since you want Tianci so badly."
As soon as Leyan finished talking, she left the living room to go upstairs.
"What? Who am I supposed to choose, then?" Xiaoyun awkwardly scratched his head as he still got no clues about what he should have done.
"I think you should have just picked one of them... Picking makes it sound like you already moved on from them." Tianci realized it first and decided to explain it to Xiaoyun.
"Shit... I completely forgot about that."
Xiaoyun facepald himself as he just realized how big of a blunder he had just pulled.
"Ha, what a dumbass... Anyway, goodnight everyone."
Kate let out a chuckle as she and Anna both went back to the guest room.
"I'm getting a little sleepy... Goodnight, brother Xiaoyun and sister Tianci."
