Chapter 13: The Most Romantic Present

The bracelet would glow red the instant it came into contact with blood. The beads on the bracelet turned transparent as red lines traveled within, as if they were veins inside a human. It was not just the lines that were red in color, it appeared to be the color of blood itself.

“It’s a Blood Gemstone Bracelet. How is this possible. My grandfather is the only one who has it in the entire household.” Wang Nianlin was shocked as he looked at the bracelet on Ye Qingxue’s wrist. Earlier, it looked like an item sold by the roadside, but it had now turned into a priceless treasure.

The price of the Blood Gemstone was not astronomical, and it was not an issue for him to purchase a few of these based on his wealth. However, what made the Blood Gemstone valuable was its scarcity. Once the Blood Gemstone appeared in the market, it would be instantly bought by someone.

Not a single person was willing to resell them as the Blood Gemstone was incredibly beneficial to one’s health. A woman would become more beautiful and the toxins within her body would be expelled if she wore them. If an old man were to wear it, his body would be enhanced and it would provide anti-aging effects as well.

These miraculous effects were also the reason why Blood Gemstone had become so rare. Everyone in the venue started realizing what the item was upon hearing Wang Nianlin’s words. They could still see the bracelet releasing the red glow even if they had never heard of it.

Everyone knew it was an amazing bracelet at first sight. With what Wang Nianlin had just said, it was only natural that everyone believed it to be an incredibly valuable item.

“That bracelet is so beautiful.” Bingxin was shocked as she looked at the red bracelet on Ye Qingxue’s wrist. She had heard of Xia Tian’s situation from Ye Qingxue as well, hence she found it extremely hard to imagine how Xia Tian was able to get his hands on one.

Wang Xianlin was showing off his expensive gift earlier and had said that Xia Tian’s gift was trash. However, the situation had turned on its head. How could one compare a diamond ring against a Blood Gemstone Bracelet?

Everyone’s gift had been outshined by Xia Tian’s gift. Ye Qingxue herself was utterly astounded. She knew Xia Tian best, and he had never wanted her mother’s money. He was always hard working and frugal. Where on earth did Xia Tian find this gift?

Although she loved his gift dearly, she could not help but worry if Xia Tian had done something illegal to obtain it.

Wang Nianlin’s gift had been overshadowed and the only thing that was worth being proud of was the bouquet of roses in his hand.

Everyone stopped looking down on Xia Tian. Previously, they were slandering Xia Tian due to his casual outlook and the belief that Xia Tian was a poor man. Now, they finally understood that Xia Tian was just putting up an act.

In addition to the bracelet which would have cost a few million dollars, how could he not give her flowers to celebrate her birthday? Xia Tian smiled gently as he knew very well what Ye Qingxue was thinking. However, it was not the time to explain as he received Elder Xu’s message on his phone.

At least ten people entered the hall with bouquets of roses. Xia Tian and Ye Qingxue were surrounded by these flowers as they were arranged in the shape of a heart.

There were a total of 9999 roses. Wang Xianlin was mocking Xia Tian earlier for not bothering to prepare a bouquet of roses. Now, there were so many people delivering them. Wang Xianlin had merely gifted her 99 roses, but Xia Tian had hired so many people to deliver them over. That required a good sum of money.

“Qingxue, look outside.” Xia Tian pulled Ye Qingxue into his arms without any resistance. Another feeling was brewing inside her. She felt incredibly blessed then even if her other half at that moment was her cousin brother.

Then, fireworks! Fireworks started appearing on the other end of the window. Hundreds of immeasurably breathtaking fireworks exploded simultaneously in the sky.

Ye Qingxue was not the only one that was incredibly touched, all the girls on the scene felt the same. If the diamond ring and bouquet of roses were the dynamic duo of romance, then, a bunch of fresh flowers and fireworks would melt a girl’s heart even further.

Each and every one of them was extremely envious of Ye Qingxue. In that moment, each of them were questioning the reason why they were not the female lead. Bingxin could not fathom what was transpiring right before her eyes. Qingxue had told her about Xia Tian before, but even she had been touched by the entire scene.

The fireworks lasted a full ten minutes and just as everyone thought they had ended, the buildings opposite the window turned dark all at once.

Then, four skyscrapers lit up in a blink of an eye.

‘Xue. I. <3. You.’

The love shape at the center was amazingly centered. The hall was filled with screaming as the girls were all caught in the moment. Even the playboy Wang Nianlin had never been that romantic before.

“It’s so romantic. It would be great if I could marry him.”

“Qingxue is so blessed. I’d even become fat if that’s what it took to marry him.”

All the girls were looking forward to more and even a few ugly ones started fangirling about him. Not a single girl could withstand what was happening right before their eyes.

The lights outside started lighting up again but what happened earlier had been etched in everyone’s memories. This level of romance was unparalleled and Wang Nianlin had walked back into the crowd. The things he took pride in had been overshadowed by Xia Tian.

Xia Tian was impressed with Elder Xu’s capability. Perhaps it was true that the experienced always did better.

Elder Xu’s performance had far exceeded his expectations and even he himself was stunned when he received Elder Xu’s messages.

Everyone was feeling lovey-dovey as Ye Qingxue was pulled into Xia Tian’s chest. Unfortunately, both had never experienced such a touching moment as they had yet to meet the right person. Ye Qingxue felt that she was the most blessed woman then and really wished Xia Tian was not her cousin brother.

“Maybe he’s not that bad.” Bingxin thought to herself. “Ah, Bingxin, what are you thinking. How embarrassing.”

Bingxin flushed. She recalled her first encounter with Xia Tian. She was very sure that she kept what she wore very well hidden and yet, Xia Tian was able to figure out what she was wearing. On top of that, there were also the things that were happening now.

“He must have a lot of secrets about him. I’m going to dig them out.” Bingxin made a vow to herself as she pondered.

Huo Wennu, who was beside the two girls, was touched beyond words. Since young, she had never really fallen for any men, and as a result did not know what feeling touched felt like. However, she finally understood why these girls were pursuing the life of glamor and other similar things similar to it after seeing Xia Tian’s actions.

Huo Wennu was able to tell that Ye Qingxue’s happiness came from her heart.

The party had officially begun and everyone had their own plans at the party due to Xia Tian’s appearance. His actions had overshadowed everyone, including the super prince Wang Nianlin.

Meanwhile, in Jianghai City Hospital.

“Quicksand!! What’s so special about this brat that even Quicksand appeared to protect him?” Xu Qinghua frowned as he spoke. He could not find any sense in Quicksand’s actions. After all, Quicksand was an assassination organization, why would they go out of their way to protect someone?

“It’s impossible that Quicksand would protect someone unless this person is incredibly important to Quicksand. He’s either a descendant of a high ranking officer in Quicksand or he has something Quicksand wants to obtain,” Shan said. Xu Qinghua did not blame him for retreating. Instead, Xu Qinghua kept asking Shan if he was injured in any way ever since he returned.

Xu Qinghua understood Shan very well and Xu Qinghua had absolute trust in him. If Shan was not able to bring his target back, this was proof that something must have happened. Shan was his most important subordinate and he had never troubled him in the past. Xu Qinghua did not see him as an outsider and he had even treated Shan better than his own biological brothers.

“The first situation is very unlikely, which means that he has something that Quicksand desires. Looks like we’ve underestimated this high school student,” Xu Qinghua said. “you should go back and do a thorough check on him.”

“What’s going to happen to the young master?” Shan asked as he looked at the bed-ridden Xu Shaocong.

“I’m going to hire Elder Wang. Although he’s quite expensive, it’s better than losing his life.” Xu Qinghua’s eyes started glimmering. He had never done anything that would result in his loss.

Ye Qingxue’s birthday party was incredibly boisterous; everyone was enjoying their time talking and partying. However, the main character, Ye Qingxue, seemed to have something on her mind the entire time as she was rather absent-minded throughout her party.

Someone offered to send Ye Qingxue home after the party since she had no ride home at all.

“It’s fine, thank you.” Ye Qingxue knew that these people were on Wang Nianlin’s side. Although Wang Nianlin had been drinking frustratingly due to Xia Tian’s actions, it did not stop them from troubling Xia Tian even when the party was over.

Xia Tian’s attire was incredibly casual and he had no place to store his car keys at all. This was how they determined that Xia Tian did not drive to the venue.

“Qingxue, you should just sit in my car.” Wang Nianlin offered Ye Qingxue like a gentleman as he walked towards her.

“No thank you. I’m walking home together with Xia Tian.” Ye Qingxue wrapped herself around Xia Tian’s arms. No one knew if she did it on purpose but she would occasionally brush her huge chest against Xia Tian’s arms.

“It doesn’t seem like he has a car to send you home.” Wang Nianlin glared at Xia Tian in disdain.

Then, Xia Tian eyed a car from afar and smiled gently as he pulled Ye Qingxue over. Bingxin immediately followed up while Huo Wennu looked at the three confusingly. Soon, a BMW stopped in front of the trio.

A person in traditional Chinese garment came down from the car and opened the door for the three of them to enter. Everything went so smoothly that Wang Nianlin and the rest were soon left standing idly.

Wang Nianlin felt that everything that had happened today was rather frustrating. He had been, again and again, outshined by Xia Tian in every aspect. When he said that Xia Tian was poor, the latter had presented a gift that was ten times more expensive than his. When he said that Xia Tian was not romantic enough, the latter had sent over 9999 roses and accompanied it with fireworks and light show.

Ultimately, even when Wang Nianlin said that Xia Tian did not have a method of transport, he still failed to find fault with his enemy. Xia Tian did not have a key because he had a driver.

“D*mned it. I won’t let you off the hook.” Wang Nianlin stared at the BMW angrily as it disappeared to the horizon.
