Chapter 1009: I'll leave it to you
Li Xiao's heart instantly jumped to his throat. He was so nervous that his palms were sweating, his back was soaked, and even his breathing became rapid.
He stared at Lin Lin Biqi, fearing that she would say something earth-shattering in front of Qiu Qiu Keying.
He would never forget the scene of their last meeting—that day he was dead drunk and had an absurd night with Lin Lin Biqi.
When he woke up the next day, he panicked and ordered emergency contraceptive pills for Lin Lin Biqi, and then fled in a panic. Since then, he had deliberately cut off all contact and never saw her again.
Just when Li Xiao was about to be unable to hold on, Lin Lin Biqi thought for a long time, but only shook her head gently, a look of embarrassment on her face: "Oh my, I can't remember, it's been too long, I can't remember exactly when it was."
As she spoke, she also gave Li Xiao a look of feigned resentment: "I heard later that you went abroad to study, and we haven't been in touch since then."
A false alarm.
Li Xiao breathed a sigh of relief secretly, the cold sweat on his back flowing down his spine, and even his fingertips were still trembling slightly. He pretended to be calm and smiled, his tone as natural as possible: "Studies were too busy at that time, plus the time difference was reversed with the country, so we didn't keep in touch much. How have you been lately? Is everything okay?"
Lin Lin Biqi raised her eyebrows, a bright smile still on her face, and nodded gently: "I'm doing well. By the way, I met Auntie not long ago, and Auntie told me that you are going to get engaged to your girlfriend. Is it true?"
"Yes!" Qiu Qiu Keying immediately grabbed the conversation, her tone full of happiness and pride that she couldn't hide, "We are here to pick out an engagement ring today, and we plan to settle the marriage matter while Li Xiao is staying in the country for a long time."
Hearing this, Lin Lin Biqi's eyes instantly burst into surprise, and she hurriedly said with a smile: "Is that so? That's great! Brother Li Xiao, congratulations to you two! Remember to send me an invitation when the time comes!"
Li Xiao naturally refused in his heart, but Qiu Qiu Keying smiled and responded simply: "Okay, you must come when the time comes."
"Miss Lin."
At this time, the shopping guide walked up at the right time and looked at Lin Lin Biqi respectfully: "Would you like to see the necklace? It just so happens that I haven't wrapped it up yet. The real thing is more beautiful than the video I took for you."
"Okay, bring it over." Lin Lin Biqi nodded and walked to the sofa on the side to sit down naturally.
Then, under the surprised eyes of Li Xiao and Qiu Qiu Keying, the shopping guide walked towards Lin Lin Biqi with the colored diamond necklace just now.
Lin Lin Biqi couldn't hide her surprise when she saw the necklace: "So beautiful, the real thing is indeed more amazing."
"Miss Lin, would you like me to help you try it on?" The shopping guide asked politely.
Lin Lin Biqi nodded, and then the shopping guide carefully put the necklace on for her.
Seeing her stand up slowly, she didn't go to look in the mirror, but walked to Li Xiao and Qiu Qiu Keying and asked: "Brother Li Xiao, Sister Qiu Keying, does it look good?"
Li Xiao smiled awkwardly and nodded, but Qiu Qiu Keying praised it from the bottom of her heart: "It looks good! Qiqi, it turns out this necklace was custom-made by you. I felt it was so beautiful as soon as I saw it just now. I was admiring it before you came, but it's a pity the shopping guide said there is only one, otherwise I would definitely buy it."
"Sister Qiu Keying, you like it?" Lin Lin Biqi blinked and asked.
Lin Lin Biqi pursed her lips and smiled, admitting it frankly: "It's so beautiful, anyone who sees it should like it."
Who knew that in the next second, Lin Lin Biqi directly took off the necklace and handed it to Qiu Qiu Keying: "If you like it, then I'll leave it to you. Although this necklace is not cheap, I think Brother Li Xiao should be willing to buy it for you."
This sudden move made Qiu Qiu Keying stunned.
Li Xiao was also stunned, and after reacting, he hurriedly said: "No need, Qiqi, this is your thing, we don't mean to grab it."
"Yes, yes, I just think it's very beautiful, but I definitely don't mean that." Qiu Qiu Keying also waved her hands repeatedly: "I can't take what others love."
But Lin Lin Biqi smiled gently, her tone very calm: "It doesn't matter, it's just a necklace. Brother Li Xiao and I grew up together, and our feelings are far more important than this necklace."
"It's just that it's too precious, I can only sell it to you, I can't give it away."
Without waiting for the two to object, Lin Lin Biqi said directly to the shopping guide: "Wrap it up, and then bring me the settlement receipt from that time."
The shopping guide hurriedly went to handle it. Li Xiao hadn't fully recovered, and a huge receipt had already appeared in front of him.
This necklace cost more than "3600" in labor!
"Brother Li Xiao, you just transfer the money to me, and this necklace is yours." Lin Lin Biqi said, handing the packaged gift box to Qiu Qiu Keying.
Qiu Qiu Keying looked at Li Xiao hesitantly, not knowing whether to take it.
Until Li Xiao said: "Thank you."
Qiu Qiu Keying couldn't wait to take it: "Thank you, Qiqi, thank you so much, I will definitely wear it when I get engaged."
At the same time, the shopping guide serving the two brought out another tray of rings, greeting Qiu Qiu Keying to pick.
Li Xiao took a deep breath when he had time, walked to Lin Lin Biqi and whispered: "Thank you today."
Lin Lin Biqi looked at him, suppressing the surging emotions in her heart, and said with a smile: "Why are you being polite? You also know my feelings for you for so many years, although it is already a thing of the past, but after all... right?"
A flash of panic flashed in Li Xiao's eyes, and he turned his head awkwardly: "It's all in the past."
"Yes, it's all in the past." Lin Lin Biqi nodded: "It's just a necklace, you don't have to take it to heart. You are going to get engaged, let alone giving your girlfriend a necklace, even if it's a more precious gift, I can afford to give it."
"This is already very precious, no other gifts are needed." Li Xiao licked his lips nervously and lowered his voice: "I just hope... we don't mention the past anymore, okay?"
"Li Xiao, look, how about this one?"
Qiu Qiu Keying's excited voice rang out suddenly. Before Lin Lin Biqi could answer, Li Xiao turned and went to Qiu Qiu Keying's side.
Lin Lin Biqi's eyes darkened instantly, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth imperceptibly.
"How much?"
When she returned home in the evening, Mrs. Li jumped up from the sofa after hearing Li Xiao's words: "F-four thousand?"
Li Xiao nodded: "A necklace is 3600, and the ring Qiu Keying picked is considered cheap, only picking one for less than 400."
"A 3600 necklace?" Mrs. Li's heart tightened: "How big is the diamond to sell for 3600? And aren't you going to pick an engagement ring? Why did you buy such an expensive necklace?"
Li Xiao sighed and said: "Met Lin Lin Biqi, this necklace was originally ordered by her." ===== CHAPTER 1010 =====
