Gu Yusheng suddenly stopped playing with the cigarette after he heard what Qin Zhi’ai said. He sluggishly looked up and glanced at the row of boxes on the table not far from them before he turned around to take a look at Qin Zhi’ai.
This was the first time he had looked at her since she came to the amus.e.m.e.nt park a while ago. He looked calm, no emotion showing on his face.
He glanced at her face and laid his eyes on her neck.
On her fair and smooth skin, there was a simply-designed necklace with a tiny white diamond pendant. It was so small that it would have been invisible if it weren’t s.h.i.+ning under the light.
Gu Yusheng wasn’t an expert on jewelry but he could tell this necklace was not a name brand. It was no comparison to the necklace he had given her. Yet how could she have been so happy after he had put it on her? She didn’t even want to take it off.
Gu Yusheng put more force into his fingers and forcefully stubbed the cigarette out. He stared at the necklace on her and asked her a question in a casual tone, but he looked a little cold as he spoke. “How come you’re not wearing the necklace I gave you?”
Qin Zhi’ai hadn’t expected Gu Yusheng to start the conversation with such a question. She looked at him in shock. Gu Yusheng looked calm, in a much better mood than when he had thrown a temper tantrum at her before. She felt like something wasn’t right. She thought for a while before she could come up with an explanation. She answered him in a low pitch, “The necklace you gave me doesn’t go well with this outfit.”
Didn’t go well? She should have said the person who gave her the necklace didn’t go well with her.
Gu Yusheng sneered and tossed the cigarette b.u.t.t in the trash tray. He softly kicked the chair behind him to stand up. “That’s okay. I have many necklaces for you that match your clothes.”
He turned around to give a look to the same man who had come over and talked to him before. That guy raised his hand to signal the women in front of a table. The women immediately opened the boxes and quickly took out boxes one after the other and laid them neatly on the long table.
These women put away the empty box and left it on the ground. Gu Yusheng suddenly pulled Qin Zhi’ai up from the chair by the arm and dragged her to the table. As they were a couple feet away from the table, Gu Yusheng suddenly stopped. He pushed her closer to the table and pointed at the stuff on it, saying loudly and slowly, “Today, you are going to pick out a necklace that will match your outfit. If you can’t pick one out, they will stay here with you and not go home until you pick one.”
Qin Zhi’ai almost fell onto the long table after being pushed by Gu Yusheng. Luckily, the guy standing next to the table grabbed her so that she was able to steady herself.
Qin Zhi’ai moved close to the table after she stumbled. She looked up and saw different types of necklace in the boxes. There were diamonds, gemstones, pearls, and gold necklaces, all the designs and materials she could think of.
The necklaces shone while the lights in the amus.e.m.e.nt park reflected on them. They looked gorgeous.
