ATBLM [QT] Chapter 82.2

When Old Sixth mentioned it just now, he realized that it seemed that he had never given Seventh Sister any gifts. This Big Brother was not qualified and the recent incident had wronged her. Although it could not be solved for the time being, he should at least buy something as compensation.

He entered the shop where Xu Hansheng bought lipstick just now and was stumped by rows of lipstick, perfume, vanishing cream, and pearl powder.

The clerk stood behind the counter and looked at the handsome young officer in front of him. She did not dare to urge him. She only thought in her heart, which lucky lady could win his favor?

Huo Changyao paused for a few seconds and then stretched out his finger to point at a piece.

“Sir, do you want all of these?” The clerk was surprised. Seeing him nodding, she immediately said attentively: “Our store can help you package it into a gift box for free. What color box do you want?”

Huo Changyao paused again and asked, “What color do young girls like?”

The clerk said: “It’s usually pink, but some girls like yellow, green, and blue.”

Recalling that she seemed to have worn goose-yellow clothes several times, Huo Changyao said: “Yellow.”

“Okay, Sir, please wait a moment.” The clerk packed the box quickly and tied a bow to the box. When she was about to hand it over, she suddenly asked: “Do you want me to tie a rose on the box for you? Roses represent romantic love and women will be very happy to receive them.”

She asked one more question purely for the sake of good service. Unexpectedly, after she asked this question, the young officer’s already serious face became more serious. After refusing, he asked the price, left the money, and left.

When he walked away, the clerk patted her chest. But when she saw the coins in her hand, she smiled again. Although this customer looked cold and hard to speak to, he was very generous with his hands. The tip he left was worth several days of her wages.

When Huo Changyao returned to the car, Xu Hansheng looked at the big box in his hand and said speechlessly: “Big Brother, are you so unkind? When we give gifts together, if you give them so grandly, won’t you make me look shabby?”

Huo Changyao wasn’t actually trying to compare Xu Hansheng, he just could not choose what to give as a gift, so he just gave it all.

He said: “Seventh Sister will not despise you.”

“That’s true,” Xu Hansheng said with a smile, “I am her favorite – or at least her second favorite Sixth Brother.”

“Who is the first?” Huo Changyao asked casually.

Xu Hansheng smiled: “This, I don’t know. We can’t understand what the little girl is thinking.”

Huo Changyao did not care either.

When they arrived at Huo Mansion, Xu Hansheng gave away the lipsticks first. Jiang Rui thanked him in surprise. After unscrewing it and looking at the color, she was even more happy, “You bought the right thing this time. Thank you, Sixth Brother!”

Xu Hansheng smiled helplessly. Remembering that he also gave her lipstick last time, but when she received it, she said it was for mature ladies. He looked at it for a long time and could not see any difference.

“You’re just making a fuss, there’s a bigger one waiting to be given to you from Big Brother.”

Jiang Rui immediately turned her head and looked at Huo Changyao with sparkling eyes, “What’s a good day today? I remember it isn’t my birthday.”

Huo Changyao handed the gift box over and said, “There are still for birthdays.”

“Thank you, Big Brother!” Jiang Rui happily hugged the big box and started to unpack it in the living room.

The other two sat beside her, watching her look forward to and cheering for a while, and they felt more satisfied than receiving gifts from others.

After she finished opening the gifts, the three of them went to eat. Wang Shi has been a vegetarian for a long time, since she moved to the back, she stopped eating with them.

Although there were no elders at the dinner table, with Huo Changyao in charge, no one had spoken in the past. Even if Xu Hansheng talked to his Seventh Sister, she did not dare to respond.

Now that the situation has changed, the three of them can be regarded as a group. With a common secret, there is a common topic. Xu Hansheng and Jiang Rui said a few words from time to time. Not only did Huo Changyao not stop him, he sometimes participated in it.

After sitting for a while after eating, Xu Hansheng was about to leave.

Jiang Rui said: “It’s so late, Sixth Brother, don’t you want to stay?”

“No, I can sleep comfortably in my own nest.”

Jiang Rui suddenly said mysteriously: “Sixth Brother, did you hide a Sixth Sister-in-law for me outside?”

“What nonsense! Children, go to bed, I’m leaving.” Xu Hansheng flicked her forehead.

“It hurts…” Jiang Rui covered her forehead and said to his back: “It must be, you are so angry!”

Xu Hansheng did not even look back, he just waved his hand with his back turned.

Huo Changyao happened to answer a phone call. When he came back, he saw Jiang Rui mumbling and asked, “What?”

“Nothing, Big Brother, I’m going upstairs.” She said, ran upstairs, and disappeared around the corner in the blink of an eye.

If there hadn’t been the chat scene of the three of them before, Huo Changyao would not have felt anything wrong. But with the previous enthusiasm, seeing her run away after saying a word to him now, he felt a difference.

He could not help but think again that he, as a Big Brother, is indeed incompetent. Even the Old Sixth knew how to care about the Seventh Sister all the time. But, it is the first time he has given her a gift in so many years. No wonder she is not close to him.
