Chapter 690 - New Year’s Present

Jiang Yu was resting at home. She rested for a month.

Xia Fan was getting better at handling the company’s affairs. When Sen Yuan started working, he looked just like Xia Fan when he was a secretary.

In less than ten days, it would be the new year. There was still nothing to buy at home.

It was still the same pretentious act from before. There wasn’t even a bit of festive red.

Elder No also went to Mo Long’s company, saying that he wanted to see his work.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Now, there was only Jiang Yu and a dog at home.

She thought for a moment and called Lu Qi, “Qiqi? Are you busy recently?”

Lu Qi said, “Movie queen Jiang remembers to call me? I thought you had forgotten about me.”

Jiang Yu smiled and said, “How is that possible?”

“How is that not possible?” Lu Qi said fiercely, “Why didn’t you tell me about your kidnapping? Dai Zhu told me when she saw the news on the Internet! If the news on the internet is suppressed, or if this matter is not exposed, are you not going to tell us?”

Jiang Yu knew Lu Qi’s character, but she did not expect that she would be angry about this matter until now.

She quickly said in a fawning manner, “I know I’m wrong. If there’s anything in the future, I’ll tell you immediately, okay?”

“Really?” Lu Qi didn’t believe her.

......

“Really, I promise,” Jiang Yu said with confidence.

“Okay, then I’ll reluctantly believe you this time,” Lu Qi said, “Tell me, why did you call me?”

Jiang Yu said, “It’s almost new year. I’ve been busy with company matters and haven’t bought any new year gifts. Do you want to buy some things with me?”

Hearing that they were going shopping, Lu Qi’s eyes lit up and said, “Of course, we’ll go together!”

Jiang Yu smiled and said, “Okay, then I’ll ask Dai Zhu and Tian Guo.”

“No problem,” Lu Qi said.

However, Dai Zhu and Tian Guo didn’t have the time recently.

Tian Guo had recently signed up for a volunteer activity and was currently working as a volunteer. She couldn’t ask for leave, so she naturally couldn’t go shopping with Jiang Yu and the others.

Tian Guo said apologetically, “Jiang Yu, I’m sorry.”

Jiang Yu smiled and said, “It’s alright. Being a volunteer is a good thing. I support you.”

“Okay!”

Meanwhile, Dai Zhu was brought by Father Dai to all the major parties.

On the surface, he said that he was bringing her to see the world, but in reality, he was forcing her to go on a blind date.

On the other end of the phone, she was going crazy. She said, “Jiang Yu! Do you know that I’m only twenty years old and I’m going on a blind date?! My dad is really afraid that I won’t be able to get married!”

Jiang Yu couldn’t help but laugh. She said, “Uncle is also worried about your future marriage.”

Dai Zhu went crazy and said, “Isn’t it too early to worry? Isn’t he just like Lu Qi’s father? She doesn’t even have a boyfriend, yet he already prepared the dowry so early?!”

Just as she was complaining, someone knocked on the door and told her to quickly change her clothes and prepare to attend the party tonight.

Dai Zhu said impatiently, “I got it!”

Jiang Yu held back her laughter until her stomach hurt. She said, “Alright, I won’t bother you anymore. Hurry up and get ready.”

Dai Zhu sighed and said, “I wish you and Lu Qi a good time.”

With that, she hung up the phone.

So in the end, only Lu Qi and Jiang Yu went shopping.

The two of them went to the mall and bought a few exquisite red lanterns and two bottles of grand manor red wine.

Lu Qi held a small lantern in her hand and couldn’t put it down.

She said, “Xiao Yu, why did you think of buying this? This thing is so small. It looks so cute!”

Jiang Yu smiled and said, “When I didn’t go back to the Jiang family in the past, I always bought this during the New Year. But it’s a big one, not a small one.”

Lu Qi looked at the small lantern, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it. She said, “If I had known earlier, I would have bought a few as well. Such a small thing hanging by the bed must look very nice, right? And it’s especially cute!”

Jiang Yu smiled and said, “If you like it, take one and go.”

Lu Qi shook her head and pulled Jiang Yu back.

She said, “No, no, no! This is your new year’s item. What’s wrong with me taking it? And one is not enough. I want to buy a few. I want to hang this all over the house!”

Lu Qi smiled and spoke to Jiang Yu. Without looking at the road ahead, she bumped into someone with a bang.

“Ouch!” Lu Qi cried out in pain.

“Miss, are you okay?” The person who was hit was a man.
