After ending the call with Pei Jingzhou, Li You threw away her cell phone and got up to open the suitcase she had brought back.
The suitcase was relatively heavy. Actually, there were only two or three pieces of clothes. The really heavy ones were the gifts she had brought for Pei Jingzhou. Pei Jingzhou did not lack material things, but if it was too simple, it would seem insincere, so she had prepared many gifts.
One was a scarf she had learned to knit from her mother.
She knew that Pei Jingzhou was suitable for black or dark brown, but she had knitted a pure white scarf. She had failed many times during this period, making it look ugly. Fortunately, the final product was satisfactory.
After all, failure was the mother of success.
There was also a photo album she had made herself. It was filled with photos of her and Pei Jingzhou over the years. There were also individual photos of Pei Jingzhou. They were all taken by her.
Because Pei Jingzhou did not like to take photos, he did not take selfies. It was all thanks to her.
Then there was a custom-made watch for men that she had been waiting for half a year. It was Patek Philippe and cost seven figures. It was very, very expensive and had almost cost her most of her savings over the years, but it was worth it.
There was also a fountain pen, which was also custom-made. There were also abbreviations of her and Pei Jingzhou’s surname in the cap. Although it was not the most expensive brand, it still cost nearly six digits.
She thought that Pei Jingzhou had many places to use a pen. If she gave him a fountain pen, it would definitely be useful.
Finally, there was the ring.
It was a platinum pair of rings. Both of them were plain rings. There were no patterns or carvings, nor were there any symbols or meanings. It was just that she felt that the plain rings were good-looking and suitable. Moreover, Pei Jingzhou’s fingers were so good-looking. They would definitely look good on such rings.
After listing these gifts on the bed, she realized that there were not many gifts. There were only five.
It was the packaging box that took up space.
In addition, there was a butterfly-shaped memory pillow in the suitcase that was suitable for old people. She had bought it from a famous shop in Bangkok.
It was said that the craftsmanship was very rare and the effect was amazing. Many people specialized in flying there from various countries to buy it.
She could be considered to be following the trend, but the homework she’d done said it was indeed useful. She hoped she’d followed the trend correctly this time.
“Well, now I’m broke.” She giggled at the pile of gifts in front of her.
Knock knock knock –
There was a knock on the door.
Li You was shocked. She quickly pulled the blanket over these gifts. Half of them were not covered, but she did not notice. She went over and opened the door. Seeing that it was her grandmother standing outside the door, Li You grinned. “Grandma, why aren’t you asleep?”
Guan Suling said, “It’s rare for you to come back to the country. Everyone is together during the day, and Grandma doesn’t have the chance to talk to you.” With that, Guan Suling looked into the room behind Li You and asked, “Is it convenient for Grandma to come in?”
“Of course it’s convenient.” Li You quickly stepped aside and invited her grandmother into the bedroom.
This bedroom belonged to Li You alone. Not long after Li You was born, Guan Suling vacated this room for Li You to use as her own bedroom.
Although Qin Chu and Li You were both Guan Sulings granddaughters, there was actually a difference in treatment.
She wasn’t biased from the start, but after interacting with them for so long, she was biased. After Qin Chu and Qin Zhuoning were born, they were taken care of by their paternal grandparents. MO Yujin was also in a half-retired state for those few years and stayed by her children’s side.
Li You was different.
Li Huaishengs parents died early, which meant that Li You was destined to be born without paternal grandparents. Those few years were when the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was busy. MO Zhu took up the position of mayor of Shen City not long after giving birth to Li You. Li You grew up beside Guan Suling almost from the age of one to five.
Therefore, to Guan Suling, Li You had been raised by her side since she was young. She was almost as precious as her heart.
Naturally, she would be more biased towards Li You.
When Guan Suling came in, she said, “l often get someone to clean your room. I’m afraid that one day, you won’t be able to sleep at night because of the pungent dust. I raised you. Not many people know you better than me. Look at you this time. You came back without saying anything. Fortunately, your room is often cleaned. Otherwise, you definitely wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight.”
Li You went forward and held Guan Sulings arm. “If I really can’t sleep, I’ll sleep in Grandma’s room.”
Guan Suling laughed at her. “How old are you? Why a_re you still sleeping with Grandma?”
“Even if I’m in my fifties or sixties, I still want to sleep with Grandma.” Li You leaned her head on Guan Sulings shoulder and acted like a spoiled child.
Guan Suling was extremely satisfied. She pulled Li You over to sit down and chat slowly. When she reached the bed, she casually lifted the blanket and saw a pile of things on the bed. Guan Suling retracted her hand and asked, “Little You, what are these?”
In front of her grandmother, Li You did not hide anything and said honestly,
“It’s the birthday gifts I prepared for Pei Jingzhou.”
“Little Pei’s birthday?” Guan Suling did not know that Li You had come back for Pei Jingzhou’s birthday this time. She thought that she had decided to come back at the last minute just like before and deliberately surprised her.
In the end, this surprise was for someone else.
Li You nodded. “Yes, it’s Pei Jingzhou’s birthday tomorrow, so I came back a day early to celebrate his birthday.”
Guan Suling snorted. “When a girl grows up, she can’t be kept. When this granddaughter grows up, she can’t be kept.”
Li You giggled and patted the bed. “Grandma, sit first.” Guan Suling sat down.
Li You immediately went to open the suitcase and took out the butterfly-shaped memory pillow in front of Guan Suling. “Grandma, this is for you.”
Guan Suling was slightly stunned. When she reacted, she quickly reached out and took it. “Is this for me?”
Li You nodded. “Yes, it’s for you. This is called a memory pillow. I don’t know if it really has the effect of increasing memory, but it can relieve your cervical vertebra disease and protect your spine better.”
Guan Suling was touched and relieved. “Every time you come back, you would buy things for me. You just have to buy more for yourself. Why would Grandma need you to pay for anything?”
Li You sat down beside Guan Suling. “l bought it for you. It’s different from
what you bought yourself.”
Guan Suling almost couldn’t stop smiling. Like many elders, she said things she didn’t mean, but she was actually overjoyed.
The two of them chatted for a long time. Li You told her grandmother about her parents’ recent situation and her studies. She chattered for a long time like a chatterbox. Unknowingly, they were talking about Li You’s marriage. Guan
Suling put the pillow aside and held Li You’s hands. “How’s your progress with Little Pei?”
When she heard this from her grandmother, Li You did not think in that direction and said honestly, “l think I’m going to marry him..”
