Chapter 566: Is This Not My Fault?

Shen Siqi had not guessed wrong.

When Xia Nuannuan called for the waiter to bring over the two large cardboard boxes that had been prepared in advance, everyone wore an expression of "as expected."

After the boxes were opened, inside were a total of eighteen gifts of various sizes.

From age one to eighteen, plus the Patek Philippe watch from just a moment ago, as well as the Lego set from last year, they had been perfectly made up for.

"You two are really something; you truly are a match made in heaven!"

Shen Siqi sighed with a smile.

"I wasn't too surprised, but this still looks quite spectacular."

Chen Zhuang shrugged and said.

"No wonder you said you'd been preparing for a long time, Nuan Nuan. Forget about the money; think of how much effort this must have taken!"

Cheng Meng pursed her lips and said helplessly, "Anyway, if I were to get a boyfriend, I definitely couldn't pull this off."

"That's assuming you find a boyfriend first!"

Wang Zijun raised an eyebrow at her.

"Hahaha..."

Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

"Brother Tian, aren't you going to post this on Moments to show off?"

Cao Mingliang looked at Qin Tian and asked.

Qin Tian shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's keep it low-key. I'll take these back and unpack them slowly, enjoying this happiness all to myself."

"Junior, that was well said; you've earned more points."

Wang Zijun gave him a thumbs-up.

Qin Tian smiled quite contentedly.

Xia Nuannuan's face flushed slightly, and she changed the subject, "Let's go back and continue eating!"

"Let's go, let's go. I've said enough about being envious; I'd better just eat more!"

"Agreed!!"

Everyone returned to the dining table one after another, sitting down to continue drinking and eating.

The atmosphere in the private room became even more lively; everyone was laughing, joking, and clinking glasses.

After the two bottles of Moutai were finished, Qin Tian ignored everyone's protests and called the waiter to order two more.

He was happy today, and he didn't care about the money!

The meal cost nearly ten thousand yuan!

The food didn't cost much; it was mainly the four bottles of Moutai that were expensive.

When paying the bill, the boss was beaming with joy and very generously wiped off the odd change.

As for Xia Nuannuan's two boxes, Qin Tian asked the boss to keep an eye on them, saying he would drive over to pick them up later.

The boss certainly wouldn't refuse such a small favor; he patted his chest with a thud, guaranteeing he would watch them personally.

Afterward, under the enthusiastic farewell of the boss and the waiters, the group walked out of the restaurant in a grand procession and headed back to school on foot.

Cao Mingliang, Zhuang Zhe, and Shen Siqi had all drunk a bit too much and were walking unsteadily.

Zhuang Zhe and Shen Siqi were naturally being supported by their partners, while Cao Mingliang, this so-called "single aristocrat," originally had no one willing to bother with him, but fortunately, Senior Wang Zijun was kind-hearted and helped support him.

The senior had also drunk quite a bit, but her tolerance was no less than that of the Northeastern man Chen Zhuang; she showed no signs of being drunk at all.

"Senior, I, I can walk, no need to support me!"

Cao Mingliang slurred his words incoherently and insisted on pushing Wang Zijun away to walk on his own, but he stumbled after only two steps and nearly sat down on the street.

Fortunately, Wang Zijun was quick-eyed and fast-handed, catching him again.

"Alright, if you keep this up, I'll just leave you sitting here. I'll take a photo of you, Young Master Cao, and post it so all those girls around you can see how ugly you look!"

Wang Zijun threatened him with annoyance.

"Who... who's ugly? This young master is handsome!"

"Hehe, yes, yes, yes, you're the most handsome!"

"That... that's not quite right, Brother Tian is first, I'm... I'm second!"

"You really have the nerve to say that!"

"It's a fact, you know!"

Listening to the two of them, Qin Tian and the others couldn't help but chuckle.

Qin Tian and Xia Nuannuan did not return to school with the others; they said goodbye at an intersection and headed in the opposite direction back to Moxiang Shuyuan.

Xia Nuannuan hadn't drunk any alcohol, so Qin Tian let her drive his car while he sat in the passenger seat.

After returning to the restaurant together, they loaded the two boxes into the car and then drove home.

"Where do you usually keep two such big boxes? How come I've never seen them?"

In the car, Qin Tian voiced his confusion.

Xia Nuannuan smiled gently and replied, "They were all in the room at my place. I didn't use these boxes before; they were all kept in the closet one by one."

"No wonder!"

Qin Tian nodded in sudden realization.

When they usually returned to Moxiang Shuyuan, they stayed at his place, so they really hadn't been to Xia Nuannuan's side much.

"You've gone to so much trouble!"

Qin Tian looked at her with a gentle smile.

"That's because you put in the effort first, Brother; I'm just following along and learning!"

Xia Nuannuan gave a sweet smile.

"Nuan Nuan."

"Hm?"

"Why are you so cute?"

Qin Tian asked with a straight face.

Xia Nuannuan's face turned bright red in an instant, and she said in a flustered manner, "Don't... don't talk like that, I'm driving!"

Qin Tian opened the car window, feigning that he was a bit drunk, and shouted out the window, "My girlfriend is just too cute, ah ah ah—"

"Stop, stop shouting!"

Xia Nuannuan's pretty face was so red it looked like it was about to drip blood; while feeling shy, there were also wisps of sweetness and happiness in her heart.

"Crazy, so what if you have a girlfriend!"

From the passenger seat of a Toyota car behind them, a head with a buzz cut poked out and cursed loudly.

Qin Tian glanced at the rearview mirror and stuck his right hand out to give him the middle finger.

"Damn it, I can't take this, buddy, ram him!"

The buzz-cut youth was furious and shouted at his good buddy in the driver's seat.

"What kind of joke are you making? That's a BMW 5 Series; can I afford to pay for that?"

His good buddy gave him a side-eye with a dark face.

"Screw it, this gigolo living off a rich woman!"

The youth cursed and added, "Then overtake him from the left; I want to see just how cute and pretty his girlfriend is!"

His good buddy didn't refuse this request.

He wouldn't dare ram the car with his beat-up Toyota, but who said he couldn't overtake a BMW?

It was time for an experienced driver to show off his skills, let the female driver of the BMW see the world, and see what a real man is.

He jerked the steering wheel to the left, cut in front of a car in the left lane, stepped on the gas, and successfully pulled up alongside the BMW.

However, the car windows were tinted, which was something the two of them hadn't expected.

They couldn't see what the female driver inside looked like at all, only a blurry silhouette.

"Go further ahead, we can see through the windshield!"

The youth urged.

"I know, I know!"

His good buddy replied impatiently and stepped on the gas to speed up again.

The youth hurriedly turned his head to look, then was dumbfounded and couldn't help but let out a curse.

"Holy crap!!!"

"What's wrong?"

His good buddy couldn't suppress his curiosity either and turned his head to look behind as well.

"Bang!"

The car shook violently, and the airbag deployed.

The two of them were almost sent flying, their faces deathly pale, as they stared blankly at the beat-up Honda in front with its rear end dented in.

It's over, they rear-ended someone!!!

Xia Nuannuan glanced at the accident scene out of the corner of her eye, her little face turning pale with fright; she quickly gripped the steering wheel with both hands, looked straight ahead, and steadily drove slowly past.

Qin Tian withdrew his gaze and said with an awkward smile, "Nuan Nuan, this isn't my fault, right?"

Xia Nuannuan rolled her eyes and ignored him.
