Fu Ge’s desire to survive was very strong.
“How is that possible?” he quickly said, “If you’re an ugly wife, then there won’t be any beautiful women in this world.”
Qin Jianxi snorted, “A man’s sweet talk is nothing but lies.”
These words made Fu Ge, who was one of the men, very unhappy.
“How am I lying? Don’t you think you’re the prettiest? I’m clearly telling the truth. Why can’t people tell the truth these days?”
Qin Jianxi was speechless.
She rolled her eyes speechlessly. “Alright, what do your parents like? I can’t go there empty-handed.”
Seeing his girlfriend like this, he stopped joking. “Don’t worry, I’ve prepared it for you. It’s in the backseat.”
When Qin Jianxi heard his words, she turned to look at the back seat. As expected, there were three gift boxes there.
“What did you prepare?” she asked curiously.
“Your mother-in-law is a narcissistic person. I just prepared a set of expensive branded cosmetics for her. Your father-in-law likes to drink. That’s a bottle of precious wine that I got from Ji Luo.”
Qin Jianxi was speechless.
Unlucky Ji Luo.
“Then what’s in the other gift box?”
“The old man likes to drink tea. This is the Junshan Yinzhen tea that I got from Murong Jiu. He just happened to buy it a few days ago. The good tea was wasted by him, so I brought it over.”
Qin Jianxi heard his tone and a word appeared in her mind.
Shameless.
She coughed lightly and pointed at the cosmetic gift box.
“This… Could it be that you took it from someone else?”
Fu Ge smiled and said, “You’re young and beautiful. You don’t need any makeup. Why would I buy that stuff?”
Seeing Qin Jianxi’s strange expression, he said calmly, “Doesn’t Lin Hengxi have an elder sister? She has a lot of expensive cosmetics that she hasn’t used before. She has an entire room full of them. I asked Lin Hengxi to get a set from his sister. These things have an expiration date. It’s not good to let it expire! I… It can be considered as making the best use of everything.”
Qin Jianxi was speechless.
‘You’re really awesome. How thick-skinned do you have to be to do such a thing?’
She thought that she could almost understand him. It seemed that she had overestimated herself. The side of him that she knew was only the tip of the iceberg.
Fu Ge did not feel that his image was collapsing.
He spoke again, “Actually, it’s your mother-in-law’s fault for calling so urgently and insisting on us coming over for dinner. I didn’t have time to prepare, so I could only ask them to get it.”
Qin Jianxi didn’t know what to say.
He was very attentive to her. After all, he had prepared everything for her. However, when she thought about how he could take these things from others… She had mixed feelings. Perhaps it was more accurate to say that he snatched these from someone else.
Although she had only spent a short time with Ji Luo, she didn’t think that Ji Luo would be in such a good mood to give his precious wine to Fu Ge.
‘Besides, pal, you don’t lack money, right?’
Fu Ge said, “Don’t worry. They usually take a lot from me. This time, I urgently sought their help.”
Qin Jianxi was speechless.
If the Qin family knew that these things were not prepared themselves and Fu
Ge even snatched them from others…
Where would her pride go?
She asked with a serious expression, “Can I not go now?”
“That won’t do. We’ve already left.. How can we go back?”
