Chapter 158 A Gift for Her

Shang Hexing informed the police in advance that Wen Zhi had been recovered. As for the specific details of the recovery, Liang Yin would naturally handle it.

The news soon reached Chong Wanying.
-
In the French-style cloakroom, Zhong Wanying is carefully selecting the necklace and earrings she will wear for Mr. Zhou's birthday today.

Zhaoqin lifted the bead curtain and came in: "Madam, Wen Zhi is back."

'click'

The sapphire necklace that Zhong Wanying had just picked up fell back with a shake of her hand.

She turned around suddenly, as if she couldn't believe it: "She is really back?"

Teruqin nodded: "The information given by the police will not be wrong."

"She is back..." Zhong Wanying's expression changed rapidly, "She came back on Zhou Lao's birthday. Can I find out where she disappeared during this time?"

Zhaoqin was about to say something but stopped: "Yes, it's time to go..."

Chong Wanying's eyes were full of anger: "Say!"

Teruqin immediately said: "It's the eldest young master."

"What did you say?" Zhong Wanying thought in a daze that she had heard wrong.

Zhaoqin trembled and repeated the story again: "It was the young master who found Wen Zhi. I heard that the young master will take Wen Zhi to Mr. Zhou's birthday today."

"You said Shang Hexing wants to take Wen Zhi to Mr. Zhou's birthday?" Chong Wanying lost her voice sharply, completely lacking her usual image of a gentle lady.

Zhaoqin was startled and said hurriedly: "I'm afraid this news is not accurate."

Zhaoqin has been working with Zhong Wanying for these years. He has seen a lot of the world, and has personally handled many "troublesome" things for Chong Wanying.The more she dealt with it, the more Zhaoqin became afraid of Chong Wanying, because she knew many of Chong Wanying's secrets, so she would naturally be afraid.

"There is a rumor, how can we not be sure?"

Zhong Wanying suppressed the gloom in her eyes and snorted softly: "Humph, I brought her to the merchant to keep her under the radar for easy control. But she has the ability. She secretly hooked up with Shang Hexing, a backer, and gave me Such a big surprise.”

What's more, her original plan was to bring Wen Zhi and Shang Jing together...

Zhaoqin suddenly remembered something and cleverly mentioned: "In recent years, the young and old have not been in a hurry to settle their marriages. Didn't they always say it was for Miss Xie? I think if this news reaches Miss Xie's ears, given Miss Xie's temper, Wen Zhi will definitely not have an easy time."

Zhong Wanying turned her head and glanced at Zhaoqin.

This glance made Teruqin panic, and he immediately added: "Madam, I just mentioned it casually."

"Good proposal."

Zhong Wanying smiled meaningfully: "Zhaoqin, it's good to have you by my side. Every time I'm upset, you can immediately think of a good way to make me happy."

Zhaoqin sneered: "It's what I should do to relieve Madam's worries."

Zhong Wanying lowered her head and picked out another necklace. She pointed at it, understood what she meant, stepped forward to pick up the necklace, went around behind Chong Wanying and put it on for her.

Opposite was a gold-painted French dressing mirror. Chong Wanying looked at the mirror and admired the necklace around her neck: "I guessed that someone saved her, but I didn't expect it was Shang Hexing. You are right, it was Shang Hexing." It's even easier, Xie Weiyue is not a vegetarian."

After putting on the necklace, Zhaoqin stepped aside: "Madam, should I go find someone now and bring the news to Miss Xie?"

"Bringing news to Xie Weiyue is too deliberate. Just ask her to appear at Mr. Zhou's birthday party today."

With that said, Zhong Wanying raised her hand and gently touched the gem pendant of the necklace.
-
Wen Zhi hadn't changed his clothes yet.

The clothes placed in Qionglou were all for daily wear. Since she didn't have anything special to wear for the occasion, Shang Hexing made a call and someone quickly sent a set.

It is a snow-blue and purple modern style cheongsam, purely hand-embroidered with complex craftsmanship. The waist and shoulders are slightly modified according to Wen Zhi's body size.

After Wen Zhi changed, he walked up to Shang Hexing and asked him, "Does it look good?"

Shang Hexing nodded.

Wen Zhi said, "You seem to like seeing me wearing a cheongsam."

The last time she went to Mr. Tan's birthday party, she wore a cheongsam and fascinated him.

Shang Hexing did not deny it: "I really like seeing you wearing cheongsam."

Wen Zhi: “Is it because the cheongsam has more charm?”

Shang Hexing's eyes darkened: "Purple has more charm."

Wen Zhi pursed her lips and snickered: "Really?" After asking, she walked away without waiting for Shang Hexing to answer.

Shang Hexing stood there and smiled.

Before going out, Wen Zhi pulled up her hair and applied lip gloss. Since she planned to make an official appearance, she would no longer deliberately hide her face.

After leaving the house at nine o'clock and getting in the car, Wen Zhi asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Is it too early?"

"Before going to Zhou's house, you have to go to another place first." Shang Hexing told her.

Wen Zhi asked: "Where to go?"

Shang Hexing: "Go and get the birthday gift prepared for Mr. Zhou."

Wen Zhi nodded.

She remembered that Liang Yin took her to Mr. Tan's birthday party last time and gave her an authentic painting of Xu Beihong, which made Mr. Tan very happy.

She had no way of knowing what Shang Hexing had given him, but this time Mr. Zhou was obviously in a higher position than Mr. Tan, and he was Shang Hexing's teacher. What would Shang Hexing give him?

arrived at the destination.

Shang Hexing had no intention of getting out of the car, and Wen Zhi didn't ask and just sat next to him obediently.

After waiting for about a minute, three people came out. The person at the front was in charge, and the two people behind were holding two boxes, one big and one small.

Chen Jinhuai got out of the car: "Is everyone here?"

The man nodded with an apologetic smile on his face: "I'd like to apologize to the guy in the car for being delayed for a while."

"Yeah." Chen Jinhuai stretched out his hand.

The man motioned to the two people behind him: "Bring it up."

The two people behind brought the boxes up respectively. Chen Jinhuai took the big box first, and then the small box.

After getting into the car, Chen Jinhuai chatted with the man for a few words and then got in the car.

From the beginning to the end, Shang Hexing never showed up, let alone communicated with the man. Until the car was far away, Shang Hexing signaled Chen Jinhuai to give him the small box.

Chen Jinhuai served it carefully.

Shang Hexing raised his hand to open it. Wen Zhi came over to widen his eyes. Shang Hexing paused and looked at her sideways: "Curious?"

Wen Zhi smiled slightly: "It's normal to be curious. I just want to see what birthday gift you prepared for Mr. Zhou."

It should be very valuable anyway.

Shang Hexing told her: "This is not a birthday gift for Mr. Zhou."

Wen Zhi was confused: "Who is it for?"

Shang Hexing: "Given to you."

Wen Zhi: "..."

For her?

Just from looking at the box, Wen Zhi could guess that the items inside must be of great value, and he would definitely be able to get it as a gift to Mr. Zhou.

But Shang Hexing actually said that it was given to her!

"Don't believe it?" Shang Hexing looked at her reaction with a smile on his lips.

Wen Zhi pursed his lips: "I don't believe it. You can't be joking."

"Of course not," he said.

Wen Zhi took a deep breath: "Then...what did you give me?"

Shang Hexing wanted to open it first and take a look, but suddenly changed his mind and handed the box to Wen Zhi: "Open it yourself and take a look."

Wen Zhi took the box and opened it hesitantly.

I saw a white hosta that was completely transparent on the orange velvet in the box.
