I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 398 At the crucial moment, you can go sell!

Yu Lingxue glanced at it, shook her head, and said:

"We've just met, you don't need to give me a gift, I won't accept it."

"It's only proper to give a gift when we first meet, right? Don't worry, it's nothing expensive, just a small token of my appreciation..."

Yan Lingwen smiled slightly and then gently placed the gift in Yu Lingxue's hands.

Yu Lingxue lowered her head, looking at the gift box. It wasn't very exquisite; it felt more like a gift box given when visiting relatives. The size was also quite intriguing. If it were an expensive necklace or ring, the box wouldn't be this big...

"Take a look inside. I've already bought it, and I don't need it. If you give it back to me, I have no one else to give it to. It's a waste of money."

Yan Lingwen raised his chin and said softly.

Yu Lingxue was somewhat surprised, not knowing what it was, but since he had asked, he had successfully piqued her curiosity.

Yu Lingxue slowly unwrapped the gift box, and upon opening it...

It turned out that it wasn't a single gift inside, but a set... a supplement set...

Inside were various famous tonics, neatly arranged.

"This...this is..."

"I'm sorry to hear that your mother is hospitalized due to her injuries. Please take these things back and let your aunt take good care of herself."

Yan Lingwen's kind smile made Yu Lingxue have a momentary doubt, and for a fleeting instant, she wondered if she had really misunderstood him.

Is he a good person?

"Oh... thank you."

Yu Lingxue nodded, her tone softening slightly. Whether the other person was genuine or faking it, receiving such a thoughtful gift still warranted a proper thank you...

"Okay, I'm glad you accepted it. Let's go for a walk as planned. I won't take up too much of your time, since you still have to take care of your mother."

"Ah."

Yan Lingwen drove away from the hospital.

Yu Lingxue held his phone cautiously, worried that Yan Lingwen might do something drastic, so he could call for help immediately...

Fortunately, nothing untoward happened along the way. Yan Lingwen didn't even keep staring at Yu Lingxue; he focused on driving the whole time.

When he occasionally glanced in the rearview mirror and met Yu Lingxue's gaze, he would only give a faint smile.

Yan Lingwen then drove to a shopping mall, which Yu Lingxue immediately recognized as their own mall, bearing the logo of Dongzhu Lingwen Group.

The fact that the company is named after his own son shows that this chairman really dotes on his son. It's likely the son will inherit the company in the future.

Yu Lingxue was puzzled. Generally speaking, shouldn't a pampered young master be... very wicked?

This doesn't quite match his current words and actions...

"Alright, we're here, let's go."

Yan Lingwen parked the car in a designated parking space in the mall's parking lot, then got out of the car first and considerately opened the car door for Yu Lingxue.

After getting out of the car, Yu Lingxue deliberately kept some distance from Yan Lingwen...

Yan Lingwen walked ahead, and she followed silently, not too far, not too close. To an outsider, it would seem that the two knew each other, but they were definitely not close...

Upon entering the mall, Yu Lingxue noticed that the customer traffic was still quite high; even though it wasn't the weekend, there were still many people shopping there.

As Yan Lingwen walked, he turned back to look at Yu Lingxue and said:

"Let me take you to see one of my favorite shops. I always go there whenever I come here."

Yu Lingxue was taken aback. Although she didn't know what kind of store it was, this was, after all, a shopping mall, so there shouldn't be any particularly strange stores there...

So she nodded and said, "Okay."

Afterwards, Yu Lingxue followed Yan Lingwen to the third floor of the mall, where there was a particularly large jewelry store!

Yu Lingxue, who was following behind, paused in surprise, not expecting... that Yan Lingwen actually wanted to bring her to this kind of shop...

Yan Lingwen glanced back, smiled, and said, "Shall we go?"

"Oh..."

Since she's already here, she can't just stand here forever, so she might as well go inside and wander around...

As soon as he walked in, the sales manager standing inside saw Yan Lingwen and his eyes lit up!

"Young Master Yan! You've arrived! Oh, it's been quite a while since you last visited!"

The sales manager, wearing high heels, hurried over, bowed, and spoke respectfully.

She glanced at Yu Lingxue beside her, and for a fleeting moment, a look of understanding crossed her eyes...

Yan Lingwen nodded and said, "Bring out the one I ordered a while ago."

"Okay! Coming right away!"

The sales manager nodded quickly and then ran back.

Yu Lingxue felt uneasy. She wondered if Yan Lingwen was going to give her something...

She could accept the supplements and such that were for her mother, but she couldn't accept these expensive jewels...

I'm just here to play along. If I accept the gifts, how will I get away?

After a while, the sales manager returned, carrying a box, and placed it on the counter.

Upon opening it, the contents were sparkling!

Inside the mold hung an exquisite diamond necklace! The diamonds were the size of pigeon eggs, exceptionally sparkling.

The workmanship is also very exquisite, and you can tell at a glance that it is very valuable!

Upon seeing this, Yu Lingxue was completely astonished and stunned...

Yan Lingwen immediately took off the necklace, walked up to Yu Lingxue, and was about to put it on her...

"Eh!"

Yu Lingxue reacted instantly, took a step back, looked at Yan Lingwen warily, and asked:

"What do you want to do?"

"Here, you can have it. Don't you like it?"

Yan Lingwen's eyes curved slightly, as if he were smiling, and his words seemed to carry an air of self-righteousness...

Yu Lingxue quickly shook her head and said, "No, I don't want it. Don't give me any more gifts, especially not such an expensive one."

"Uh..."

Yan Lingwen looked away, paused for a moment, then beckoned Yu Lingxue closer, as if he had something to say to her...

"What are you doing?" Yu Lingxue was still wary, her brows furrowed slightly, unsure of what Yan Lingwen was up to.

Yan Lingwen cautiously stepped forward, lowered his voice, and whispered:

“I know... you don’t get along with your dad right now. He’s threatening you and cutting off your money, right?”

Yu Lingxue suddenly froze, staring at him with wide eyes: "How did you know?!"

"I've investigated! I want to help you! Really! Your mother is still in the hospital, you're working so hard, and your father is threatening you, I really can't stand seeing you like this! I really want to help you! But I can't just transfer money to you or anything, firstly you definitely won't accept it, secondly, your father will find out..."

Yan Lingwen picked up the necklace and continued:

"I've got an idea! I'll give this to you as a gift, it's perfectly legitimate, and he can't interfere! If it really comes down to it, you can sell it! Use it to tide you over!"
