Han Luoli smiled and pulled the girl to sit by his side, casually picking up the exquisite gift bag from the sofa and placing it in the gap between them.
"A little gift for you," the man hinted with his eyes, motioning for her to open it.
"Another gift?" Holding the high-end, beautifully wrapped bag, Gu Xiaoer clicked her tongue, "You shouldn't always waste money like this."
Though she complained with her lips, her heart was thrilled with delight, curiously turning the gift bag over and over in her hands.
So mysterious, what could it be?
"A teddy bear!"
When Gu Xiaoer opened the bag, a furry plush toy revealed its head, its adorable look irresistible to any girl.
She never expected a grown man to know that girls liked these things. She simply couldn't picture him, with his stern face, asking a shop assistant to buy a teddy bear.
Her heart felt warm and sweet, instantly brightened from the mood that had been affected by Lu Tianze just moments before.
Women, once pampered, are bound to become sentimental.
"Don't think you can buy me off with gifts," she drawled, pouting as she shook the teddy's furry head.
Han Luoli raised an eyebrow; had the little girl's demands become greater in just a few days?
But it was good she knew to make demands because, regardless of what they were, he could satisfy them.
The man tilted his ear towards her, signaling he was all ears.
"They say that a boyfriend should accompany his girl when she's sick, yet I'm left bored, hugging the TV and watching Korean dramas alone…"
"Feeling wronged?"
"The oppas in Korean dramas are so romantic, not just giving gifts to the lead actress, but also accompanying her to movies, setting off fireworks, so romantic and tender!" It seemed this was her main point. Han Luoli kissed the girl's pouted lips and quietly looked into her eyes, "Is it boring being with me?"
"No…" Sometimes it was a bit boring, though. He didn't enjoy dramas or variety shows. Most of the time, he was engrossed in some financial magazine, happily lost in his own world.
She was too shy to interrupt him, fearing he would complain about not having personal space.
If there were any communication between them, it was probably only when they were lying down together.
She wanted to be part of his world.
And she wanted him to enter her own.
"Silly girl, you can tell your husband your thoughts, and then I can understand you better, right? Anything you enjoy, I can try to join you…"
"But… that time I finally had a chance to go to a Lubao concert, you coldly turned it down." The thought still brought up feelings of resentment.
Lubao, oh Lubao, it was not often he came to Mofeng City for a concert.
She knew he wasn't interested in this star-chasing stuff, so she didn't insist on him joining her for dramas or concerts. But occasionally going to a free concert together would have been nice, wouldn't it?
She didn't want to look back on their dating period and, when asked why her boyfriend didn't accompany her, only be able to reply that he was busy entertaining clients.
Han Luoli silently sighed; the girl still wasn't getting it.
It wasn't just about two concert tickets!
And there she was, right in front of her boyfriend, still thinking about another man. Is that Lubao really better looking than him?
Han Luoli pinched the girl's cheek as a form of punishment and didn't continue the topic, yet privately, he sent a text to Wei Feng.
After dinner, just as Gu Xiaoer was getting ready to watch a soap opera.
Before it even started, Han Luoli came over in casual clothes and poked her.
"Baby, come with me to a place."
