Chapter 478 What are you thanking me for?

Zhao Yizhi stood to the side, her face turning pale and then red, but she couldn't lash out, so she could only watch silently.

She only chose three outfits in the end—Lu Boxi was a little short on money lately, and she had already bought quite a few bags a few days ago, so she didn't plan to buy any more this time to avoid upsetting Lu Boxi.

After the group went downstairs, Lu Boyi pulled Ming Nianxi to the first floor to look at bags.

Ming Nianxi didn't look at the limited edition items, firstly because they required purchasing other items, which was too troublesome;

Secondly, limited editions are too flashy and not suitable for work.

But the regular models are different. They are mostly priced at around 10,000 to 20,000 yuan, and many people in the company carry them. They don't look out of place or too flashy.

Ming Nianxi couldn't refuse Lu Boyi, so she could only choose the simplest and most versatile style from the regular options.

But Lu Boyi looked at the bag and said to the salesperson, "Give me two, exactly the same."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yizhi's eyes lit up instantly, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up in a smile.

—One of them is definitely for myself!

After all, she was Lu Boyi's sister-in-law, and they would be family from now on. Lu Boyi couldn't possibly show favoritism.

She quickly stepped forward, a smile plastered on her face, and said affectionately, "Thank you, big brother!"

Lu Boyi paused, looking at her with a puzzled expression: "What are you thanking me for?"

Zhao Yizhi pointed to the two bags the shop assistant had brought out, her tone matter-of-fact: "These two bags are exactly the same. Isn't the other one for me? After all, we'll be family from now on, so you definitely won't be biased, big brother."

Lu Boyi glanced at Lu Boxi helplessly and said in a flat tone, "If you want a bag, go ask your boyfriend. The bag I bought has nothing to do with you."

After saying that, he picked up another bag, handed it to Xie Shuyao, and said with a smile, "Thank you for always being there for Xixi and taking care of her. Consider this a gift from me to you, a matching bag for you two."

Xie Shuyao's eyes widened, her face filled with surprise and delight. She quickly took the bag and said with a smile, "Best friend, you're so good at this! Don't worry, from now on I'll be your and Xixi's guardian angel, I'll definitely keep an eye on Xixi and not let anyone else have a chance!"

Ming Nianxi couldn't help but smile at this scene, feeling a warm glow in her heart.

She never expected that Lu Boyi would even take care of her best friend.

Xie Shuyao stayed with her the whole time. She also wanted to buy a gift for her best friend, but her own financial situation didn't allow it. She felt it wasn't appropriate to ask Lu Boyi to buy it. Unexpectedly, Lu Boyi actually thought of it himself and did it so thoughtfully.

He knew in his heart that if he wanted to win a girl's heart, treating her friends sincerely was the most touching thing he could do.

Zhao Yizhi stood to the side, her smile instantly freezing, utterly embarrassed.

She never imagined that she would be so presumptuous and make such a big joke of herself.

Lu Boxi noticed his girlfriend's embarrassment and distress, and quickly stepped forward to comfort her: "Alright, alright, don't be upset. Don't you already have that bag?"

"Besides, that style isn't your favorite either; I don't remember you carrying it much."

Zhao Yizhi bit her lip and replied softly, "Mm."

Then, she muttered under her breath, her tone tinged with jealousy, "Your brother is so generous, giving such an expensive bag to a stranger."

Her voice was very soft, and only Lu Boxi, who was next to her, could hear it.

Actually, this bag only costs a little over 20,000 yuan, and the two together cost a little over 50,000 yuan.

It's not even as expensive as the bags I usually buy for Zhao Yizhi.

Seeing his girlfriend's angry expression, Lu Boxi quickly coaxed her, "Don't be angry. If you like it, I'll buy you one too, okay?"

Zhao Yizhi shook her head, feigning understanding: "I don't want it. Let's save you some money. You haven't had an easy time lately."

Lu Boxi was instantly touched by her thoughtfulness and smiled as he ruffled her hair: "You're such a good Zhizhi, so considerate."

On the other side, Lu Boyi took his card to the cashier to pay, spending a total of over 186,000 yuan. The clerk also gave him two high-end silk scarves as a gift.

Ming Nianxi asked Xie Shuyao to choose one as well. The two picked out their favorite styles, one for each of them, and were overjoyed.

The shop assistant packed up the items, and the group walked out of the luxury store carrying them.

Lu Boxi glanced at the time and suggested with a smile, "It's still early, how about we go see a movie? It'll help pass the time, and then we can go eat afterward."

Lu Boyi didn't agree immediately. Instead, he turned to look at Ming Nianxi, his eyes full of inquiry: "Is it okay? If you don't want to look, we can go look around somewhere else."

Ming Nianxi nodded gently: "Okay, we'll have dinner together tonight anyway, and there's really nothing else to do in between, so watching a movie is a good idea."

There was a movie theater nearby, so after putting their things in the car, they walked over.

Xie Shuyao and Ming Nianxi couldn't help but glance at Lu Boxi's car a few more times—even if they didn't know the car brand, they could tell that the sports car was definitely worth a lot of money.

Both of them were a little puzzled: they were brothers, so why were their cars so different?

Xie Shuyao quietly sidled up to Ming Nianxi and whispered, "Nianxi, do you think Lu Boyi's parents are biased? Their cars are so different, even though they're brothers. I bet his brother's car could buy ten of his!"

Ming Nianxi shook her head slightly, her tone blank: "I don't know, maybe there's some other reason."

Xie Shuyao continued, "So what if he's biased? Anyway, Lu Boyi's family is so rich. Even if you get a smaller share of the family fortune, it'll be enough for you to live comfortably in the future. It's much better than marrying an only child from an ordinary middle-class family."

Ming Nianxi was amused by her and gently patted her: "You're good at comforting people, always taking his side."

Xie Shuyao raised an eyebrow with a smile: "There's nothing I can do. Your best friend's husband is so good at dealing with people, and he even gave me such an expensive bag. I'm only paying him, so I have to put in a good word for him with you."

On the other side, Zhao Yizhi looked at Lu Boyi's car with surprise and disbelief in her heart—Lu Boyi actually drives such a cheap car.

Compared to Lu Boxi's sports car, it was worlds apart; this was hardly the kind of extravagance expected of the eldest son of the Licheng Group.

The group quickly arrived at the movie theater.

The movie ticket wasn't expensive, and Xie Shuyao thought about the expensive handbag Lu Boyi had given her.

Feeling bad about it, I thought I'd treat everyone to a movie.

Even if you don't like Zhao Yizhi, there's no need to worry about this small amount of money. The important thing is to please Lu Boyi and help Xixi keep him close.

So as soon as they arrived at the movie theater, Xie Shuyao quickly walked forward, stood in front of the bar, and turned to ask Ming Nianxi, "Xixi, which movie do you want to see? Let's pick a good one."

Ming Nianxi glanced at the movie list on the screen, pointed to one of them, and said, "Let's take this one. It's a comedy, easy to watch, what do you think?"

Xie Shuyao immediately nodded: "Okay, I also like watching comedies, they make me feel good."

But at that moment, Zhao Yizhi spoke up, her tone tinged with disdain: "What's so interesting about that comedy? It's pointless and tacky. Let's choose this romance movie. The visuals are beautiful, and the plot is touching."
