Chapter 1743: Inspiration Turns Into a Surprise

"Since it's for me, it's mine, and sharing it with my girlfriend is only natural, right?"

Hmm, if you put it that way...

Jiang Motian didn't stand on ceremony anymore; she picked up a flower-shaped pastry and took a bite.

But she only took one bite before putting it down.

Although the pastry looked tempting, Jiang Motian still didn't like it.

However, the next second, the pastry she had bitten was picked up by Xie Wanyi, who then ate it quite naturally.

Seeing this, Jiang Motian moved her lips and said, "You... could have just thrown that away."

"Why?"

"Because I already bit it."

"I've even touched your lips; why wouldn't I be able to touch something you've bitten?"

Uh...

Jiang Motian didn't know how to respond.

And Xie Wanyi gave another reason that couldn't be refuted: "One shouldn't waste food."

"Fine, you're right."

Jiang Motian couldn't win an argument against Xie Wanyi, so she had to retreat.

But after seeing Xie Wanyi eat three pastries in a row, she couldn't help asking, "Do you like them that much?"

"Yes, an elder made them specifically for me, so of course I like them."

It wasn't so much that he liked the taste.

It was more that Xie Wanyi liked the feeling of being kept in someone's heart.

Xie Wanyi also knew that they weren't his own family.

But... he shamelessly borrowed Jiang Motian's light to enjoy it for once.

However, Xie Wanyi didn't stay immersed in it for long.

After eating three pieces, he put the lid back on.

Then he said, "Actually, it was just a small favor; there was no need for your mother to go to such trouble."

"But your small favor was extremely effective."

After Jiang Motian finished speaking, she asked curiously, "So what exactly did you say to Momo to make her agree to transfer schools?"

"Actually, it was nothing much."

"I just told her to become strong sooner, and then she could buy whatever she wanted to buy."

Buy what she wanted to buy?

Jiang Motian thought about it and understood something.

Then she suddenly realized.

Before, the Li Family would only lecture Li Moning on life principles and help her analyze the big picture.

But it had absolutely no effect.

Instead, it made Li Moning feel rebellious.

But she hadn't expected that changing the angle would be so effective!

Jiang Motian couldn't help but praise him: "You really have a way with things! You're worthy of being someone my parents have praised!"

"Then what about your brother? Didn't he take the opportunity to praise me?"

"He's been so busy lately that I can't even see him when it's time to eat."

Hearing this, the look in Xie Wanyi's eyes turned deep.

Jiang Motian observed his change, tilted her head, and said meaningfully, "You seem to know something about my brother."

"I do know a little, but not much."

"Even if it's not much, it must be something I don't know! Why don't you reveal a little to me?"

As Jiang Motian spoke, she even blinked at Xie Wanyi.

Looking at her playful appearance, Xie Wanyi couldn't help but tap the tip of her nose.

Then he said, "If your brother wanted to say it, he would naturally say it. If I were to say it for him, he would probably be angry."

"That's easy, I just won't tell him!"

"Can you really not tell him?"

"Really!"

"This... alright, then lean your ear over."

Seeing that Xie Wanyi had relented, Jiang Motian immediately leaned in excitedly.

As a result...

Xie Wanyi kissed Jiang Motian on the cheek!

"Xie Wanyi!"

Jiang Motian was fuming, and her lips were pursed.

Xie Wanyi smiled and asked, "What's wrong? Can't I even kiss my own girlfriend?"

"But you..."

"are clearly changing the subject!"

"That's right, I am changing the subject."

Jiang Motian didn't expect this guy to actually dare to admit it so righteously!

Too arrogant!

Jiang Motian prepared to teach this arrogant fellow a lesson.

Yet she did not expect Xie Wanyi to suddenly become melancholy.

He even sighed, "I think when we are together, there should only be each other."

Xie Wanyi's mood shifted rather quickly.

Jiang Motian took a moment to adjust before she could keep up with his rhythm.

Then she frowned and said, "What do you mean? Does being with you mean we can't talk about anything else?"

"We can talk, but we shouldn't talk about it all the time, don't you think?"

"When did I talk about it all the time!"

Not yet?

Xie Wanyi began to explain in detail: "After you came in, you first talked about your sister's matter, then you talked about your brother's matter, but what about me? You didn't show any concern for me at all."

Jiang Motian wanted to retort.

But she discovered...

Xie Wanyi was right.

In this instant, Jiang Motian felt her confidence falter.

She gave a light cough before saying, "But I came here to tell you about Momo's matter and to convey my mother's thanks."

"I already know all of that; for the time after that, can we just talk about each other?"

What choice did Jiang Motian have?

Naturally, she had to nod in agreement.

But thinking about it carefully...

Xie Wanyi was beating around the bush, and his actual intention was to steer the conversation away from Li Xingyan!

Realizing this, Jiang Motian pursed her lips, feeling a bit unhappy.

But the next second, she felt something being stuffed into her palm.

Jiang Motian looked down and discovered a box in her palm.

The box was not large, but it was exquisite and somewhat heavy.

"Open it and take a look."

So, this is...

A gift for her?

Jiang Motian looked at Xie Wanyi, feeling somewhat surprised.

Afterward, Jiang Motian opened the lid with effort.

Inside the box was a bracelet.

The pattern on the bracelet, however, made her feel very familiar...

Seeing Jiang Motian staring at the pattern on the bracelet, Xie Wanyi explained: "This pattern is something you doodled casually; you threw it away after drawing it, and I felt it was a pity, so I took it and had someone make it into a bracelet."

Hearing Xie Wanyi's explanation, Jiang Motian finally remembered that when she was bored, she had indeed drawn several patterns in different styles.

After Jiang Motian finished drawing them, she had liked them quite a bit herself.

But she couldn't think of any use for them, so she threw them away.

She didn't expect...

A momentary inspiration had turned into a surprise!

Jiang Motian was moved by Xie Wanyi's thoughtfulness.

The previous unhappiness was also swept away.

Seeing the smile on Jiang Motian's face, Xie Wanyi knew she liked it very much.

This made him feel very gratified as well.

Then he said: "This bracelet was made by an old craftsman I found; when he saw me come to his door with the pattern, he thought I was inexplicable, but he was very satisfied with the finished product he designed."

Jiang Motian had only drawn the pattern.

The other parts of this bracelet were all designed and crafted by the old craftsman.

One had to say, the other party's craftsmanship was superb, and the design was very ingenious.

Jiang Motian felt this bracelet was simply a work of art!

The more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and finally she asked: "Where did you find this treasure of a craftsman?"

"Actually... it was quite hard to find; his studio is in the mountains, and he even keeps a very fierce dog at the entrance."

In the mountains?

A very fierce dog?

Why did it feel so familiar?

Jiang Motian thought for a moment, then suddenly raised an eyebrow.

Then she hurriedly asked: "The old craftsman you

mentioned, could it be Mr. Zhao Yize?"
