Chapter 89: The Meaning of Givenchy
***
After concluding negotiations with Li Wuya, Xia Ruoming also purchased a 5-story commercial building in Hangzhou for 68 million yuan. Since she didn’t negotiate the price, Xia Ruoming even added an extra 1-2 million yuan, and the other party promptly agreed to the transaction, arranging to meet with Xia Ruoming tomorrow for the handover and transfer.
After completing the transfer the next day, this commercial building officially became Xia Ruoming’s fixed asset and was quickly placed under the name of “Qinghan Culture,” the company already registered in Chengdu.
“Ah, Sister Qinghan, I’m so tired~” At the Hanting Hotel, after a busy morning, Xia Ruoming laid directly on the legs of Xiao Qinghan, who had been running around with her, and closed her eyes to rest.
“Ruoming, I’ve been running around with you all morning, my legs are dying, and you’re still lying on them?” Xiao Qinghan responded to Xia Ruoming while reading the book in her hands. Although Xiao Qinghan said this, she showed no intention of pushing Xia Ruoming away, and instead freed one hand to cover Xia Ruoming’s eyes, shielding them from the light.
“Hehe, that’s because Sister Qinghan is the best~” After saying this, Xia Ruoming nuzzled against Xiao Qinghan like she was acting spoiled.
Xiao Qinghan felt she was having an illusion that lying on her legs wasn’t Xia Ruoming, but a lazy cat waiting for its belly to be scratched.
“Then aren’t you going to give me something?” Xiao Qinghan said jokingly, “You’re just going to say nice things when I’m being so good to you?”
“Oh right!” Xia Ruoming clapped her hands and sat up straight, “Sister Qinghan is absolutely right, come shopping with me this afternoon. All the female executives from other companies wear various luxury brands, and as my female executive, Sister Qinghan should have them too!”
“Pfft… alright, alright.” Xiao Qinghan laughed lightly, treating it as just a joke from Xia Ruoming, after all, she knew that Xia Ruoming had to go somewhere else in the afternoon to discuss the house they had been looking at earlier, as they couldn’t keep staying in hotels.
To her surprise, after finishing lunch at the Hanting Hotel, Xia Ruoming really rushed her enthusiastically to the shopping district.
And took her directly to various luxury brand counters.
She thought Xia Ruoming was just saying it casually, but Xia Ruoming really put aside her own matters and took her shopping.
“Ruoming, didn’t you have to go look at houses this afternoon? Don’t miss the time. Besides, I don’t need these things, I was just joking earlier, don’t buy these things for me, I won’t have use for them.” Xiao Qinghan pulled at Xia Ruoming, saying somewhat anxiously, she didn’t want Xia Ruoming to miss important matters because of her.
“It’s fine, Sister Qinghan, the appointment time is very flexible, it’s okay to go later, and besides, how could anything be more important than Sister Qinghan’s matters?”
Walking side by side, Xia Ruoming’s profile was reflected in her eyes, and for some reason, her heart once again surged with turbulent waves, especially after hearing that even the so-called important matters weren’t as important as her.
The threads of complex emotions once again wove through the bottom of her heart, that feeling of having the soft spots deep in her heart struck couldn’t be forgotten in a short time.
Two years… was really too long, she already felt that the vow she made in her heart back then was a mistake, if it weren’t for Chu Suhe, Xiao Qinghan would want to embrace Xia Ruoming right now.
At that time, Xiao Qinghan thought that if by sophomore year, Xia Ruoming still had feelings for her, and she still liked Xia Ruoming, then it wouldn’t matter if they officially got together.
At that time she was still a teacher, so that assumption was also the legal bottom line for when girls could marry, she also made that bottom line her bottom line… but now she found that this bottom line seemed a bit unnecessary.
She, who had always been a believer in staying single, suddenly understood what it meant to like someone, and how she wished she could return to her youth and have a spontaneous romance, and that person could only be Xia Ruoming.
If she hadn’t understood what love was, she could have continued walking alone.
If she hadn’t been warmed by the sunlight, she could have adapted to the darkness.
The absent-minded Xiao Qinghan felt something touch her arm, and only then did she come back to her senses to find Xia Ruoming holding a gray handbag in front of her, about to hand it to her.
Next to them, a sales assistant was holding something like a number card, standing behind Xia Ruoming.
“Sister Qinghan, this is for you, do you like it?” Xia Ruoming looked into Xiao Qinghan’s eyes and said softly.
“I told you, there’s no need to give these things, Ruoming you’re at a time when you need money, don’t waste it like this…” Before she could finish speaking, Xiao Qinghan saw the name of the counter【GIVENCHY】, and also saw the empty space in the limited edition display case.
With her sharp eyes, she naturally wouldn’t miss the price tag either.
“Ruoming, what are you doing? Quick, return it, I don’t want something so expensive, I know you have money now, Ruoming, but you can’t spend it so recklessly.” Xiao Qinghan held the Givenchy handbag and was about to find the counter staff to return it.
“Sister Qinghan, it can’t be returned anymore.” Seeing Xiao Qinghan’s flustered appearance, Xia Ruoming covered her mouth and began to giggle.
“What?” Xiao Qinghan didn’t understand what Xia Ruoming meant and asked in confusion, but the next second, following Xia Ruoming’s gaze, Xiao Qinghan had already seen the scissors in Xia Ruoming’s other hand, and the price tag on the counter that had been cut to pieces by the scissors.
Xia Ruoming knew that Xiao Qinghan really liked this plush handbag, in her previous life, she had seen Xiao Qinghan buy a counterfeit version of the same Givenchy style, and use it for many years. She also knew that Xiao Qinghan wouldn’t accept something so expensive, and might even keep the price tag to secretly return it and give the money back to her, so as soon as she bought the bag, Xia Ruoming immediately destroyed the price tag.
Before Xiao Qinghan could continue speaking, the sales assistant also came up and handed over the number card.
“Miss, please keep this number card, this handbag has a custom lock, this young lady ordered a lock with the imprint【XIAOQINGHAN】for you when she bought it, our counter can’t customize it, we’ll notify you when it’s ready, just bring this card to pick it up, and you can keep the original lock too.”
“Also, this young lady ordered two custom floral dresses in different colors for you, they’ll be delivered to you at the same time.” The sales assistant bowed slightly, handing the bag and number card to Xiao Qinghan, looking at her enviously, she also wished someone would be so good to her.
After receiving the items, Xiao Qinghan turned her back and covered her mouth, taking two deep breaths.
If she hadn’t done this, she might have started crying on the spot.
Givenchy’s slogan is: I love you, you be casual. Therefore, giving a Givenchy gift also carries this meaning within it, at that moment Xiao Qinghan was truly moved beyond words, if she could be by Xia Ruoming’s side, it wouldn’t matter even if she was just a supporting character.
However, Xia Ruoming didn’t know this meaning…
Xia Ruoming only knew that Xiao Qinghan really liked this bag and those two dresses in her previous life, although Xiao Qinghan wouldn’t spend Xia Ruoming’s money, it didn’t mean she didn’t like them.
