Chapter 1744: Thank You for Your Gift

~7 min read 1,395 words

"Huh, you know him too?"

This... how could I not know him!

That old gentleman is far too famous in the circle!

It's just...

"You call a master designer an old craftsman?!"

"He is indeed a craftsman, and he says so himself."

Xie Wanyi's reply left Jiang Motian somewhat speechless.

Jiang Motian also remembered one thing.

Last year on her mother's birthday, her father wanted to find this designer to design a set of jewelry.

But the other party wouldn't even meet with her father.

Then how... did Xie Wanyi persuade the other party?

Jiang Motian was curious and asked the question in her heart.

Xie Wanyi, however, answered very simply: "I did him a favor, so he returned the kindness."

Did him a favor...

Jiang Motian pursed her lips.

Seeing her like this, Xie Wanyi smiled and said, "I know, you definitely want to ask what favor I did."

"Yeah, so will you tell me?"

"Of course I will. The old gentleman was looking for an old friend, and since I happened to have some information, I told him."

So that was it.

Jiang Motian wore an expression of sudden realization.

Immediately after, she noticed Xie Wanyi was still looking at her with a smile.

This made Jiang Motian ask suspiciously, "Why are you making that face?"

Xie Wanyi didn't answer immediately; he sighed first, then said, "My girlfriend's curiosity is too strong."

"It's the things you've experienced that make me curious. Seriously, do you have any other novel stories?"

"I do, but are you sure you want to hear them?"

"Of course, of course!"

Jiang Motian looked like a curious Baobao, and at the same time, she looked at Xie Wanyi with anticipation.

Xie Wanyi thought for a moment, then began to talk about the bizarre things he encountered while carrying out missions.

At the beginning, Jiang Motian was still listening attentively.

But gradually, her body

shrank back slightly.

Her eyes, however, were wide open.

Finally, Jiang Motian stroked her chest with one hand and covered Xie Wanyi's lips with the other.

And said, "Better not tell me anymore, I can't take it, it's simply shattering my worldview!"

Actually...

Xie Wanyi hadn't even told her the things that would truly shatter her worldview yet.

But seeing Jiang Motian like this, Xie Wanyi didn't continue.

He held the hand placed on his lips, kissed it, and then said, "Let me put the bracelet on you."

Jiang Motian nodded.

Xie Wanyi took out the bracelet and wrapped it around Jiang Motian's wrist.

His movements were very gentle.

It was just that when fastening the bracelet, he could never get the clasp into that ring.

Jiang Motian had been waiting for a while, so she supported her right arm with her left hand.

Then she tilted her head to look at the repeatedly failing Xie Wanyi and commented helplessly, "You are very unskilled at this."

"I'll get it after a few more tries."

As soon as Xie Wanyi's voice fell, a "click" sound was heard.

It was finally fastened!

Xie Wanyi breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he smiled and said, "Look, didn't that work?"

Jiang Motian also breathed a sigh of relief.

She retracted her slightly sore arm, shook it, and asked Xie Wanyi with a smile, "Does it look good?"

"It looks good."

When Xie Wanyi said this, he wasn't looking at the bracelet at all, but at Jiang Motian.

Jiang Motian felt a bit embarrassed from being stared at by his direct gaze.

She licked her lips, preparing to say something to make Xie Wanyi shift his attention.

Who knew that just as she tilted her head up, her cheeks were cupped by Xie Wanyi.

Then, there was a deep kiss.

Not until Jiang Motian was panting did Xie Wanyi let her go.

Afterward, Xie Wanyi's forehead rested against Jiang Motian's, his voice low: "I really want to monopolize

every minute and every second of you."

Jiang Motian smiled and commented, "Then you are very greedy."

"I am also very overbearing; who knows, one day I might just kidnap you and then completely possess you."

"If you dare to do that, watch out for my brother hunting you down to the ends of the earth."

"Then I will find a place your brother can never discover, making him anxious and angry, yet completely helpless."

This comment... was a bit childish.

Jiang Motian laughed out loud upon hearing this, then she asked, "Then what if I get homesick and cry?"

"We can build a family of our own."

Hearing this, Jiang Motian's face flushed, and she hurriedly scolded, "Nonsense!"

"Who knows, it might come true in the future."

As the words fell, Xie Wanyi reached out and wrapped his arms around Jiang Motian's waist.

And pulled her, pressing her tightly against himself...

Just as the atmosphere was growing increasingly heated, Xiaolin rushed over in a flurry.

He opened his mouth and said, "Boss, the last time you... uh..."

Xiaolin had never expected to see such a sultry scene in the office!

He was startled at first.

Then he immediately turned around, feeling... that he had caused a huge disaster!

Xie Wanyi let go of Jiang Motian, darkened his expression, and asked, "Something up?"

"Y-yes, there is something. The matter you asked me to investigate last time, there is a lead."

Jiang Motian knew that Xie Wanyi had serious business to attend to, so she said, "You go ahead and get busy, I'm going back to the Art Studio."

Xie Wanyi was reluctant to let her go.

Right now, he truly wished he could be stuck together with Jiang Motian twenty-four hours a day.

But he also knew that was impossible.

At this moment, Xie Wanyi could only say, "I'll see you off."

"No need, I'll just drive back myself. Oh, thank you for the gift!"

As Jiang Motian said this, she shook her wrist again.

However, when Jiang Motian passed by Xiaolin...

Both of their faces flashed with discomfort.

But the difference was that Jiang Motian left the office, took a deep breath, and could pretend the awkwardness from just now didn't exist.

While Xiaolin still had to bite the bullet and face Xie Wanyi, who was clearly in a bad mood.

Xiaolin knew Xie Wanyi was glaring at him, so he immediately gave a fawning smile.

But Xie Wanyi didn't buy it at all, questioning him in a cold voice, "Don't you know you're supposed to knock before coming in!"

"I know, I know, but I was just too anxious today and got carried away for a moment. Boss, I was wrong!"

Xiaolin's attitude in admitting his mistake was actually quite good.

Considering that Xiaolin might have brought the news he wanted, Xie Wanyi did not punish him.

Instead, he asked, "What exactly is the situation?"

Xiaolin dared not delay and hurriedly placed a photo in front of Xie Wanyi.

The moment he saw the photo, Xie Wanyi raised his eyebrows slightly.

The moment Xie Wanyi saw the photo, she raised her eyebrows slightly.

This Ping Ge was an old man who had been by Li Shu's side taking care of him.

Although he didn't take on missions, he held an absolute status within the Organization.

But why would he come here this time, and even have contact with the West Hall Master?

Seeing Xie Wanyi gradually furrow his brows, Xiaolin said, "How about we just ask him directly?"

Xie Wanyi didn't even think about it and refused, "He won't say anything even if we ask; let's continue to observe first."

Without a second thought, Xie Wanyi refused, saying, "Even if you ask, they won't say; let's continue observing first."

Xiaolin acknowledged the order and then brought up another piece of good news: "Of the people rescued from the West Hall Master's subordinates last time, two survived, and one of them has already regained consciousness."

"Then is he willing to testify against Xu Nianxin?"

"Forget about testifying, he has the heart to kill Xu Nianxin and her father! That pair of father and daughter is truly vicious; not only did they silence them, they even implicated their families!"

"Then don't waste this opportunity, go and make the arrangements."

"Understood, I will handle the follow-up matters properly!"

"Then don't waste this opportunity; go make the arrangements."

"Understood, I will handle the follow-up matters properly!"
