Chapter 1552 - 1554

Zhao Xuran doesn’t understand, why is his lovely wife giving him the cold shoulder?

"Well..." Didn’t he follow Zhao Guangran’s advice to give Ni Zi her favorite white roses and write a love letter?

Shouldn’t he have received a big smile? Why is he not seeing one?

It’s understood that Zhao Guangran’s suggestions are often unreliable.

But without consulting Zhao Guangran, Zhao Xuran would be rather clueless and truly wouldn’t know whom to ask.

"This is a love letter." Back in the room, Gong Ruini couldn’t hold back.

"This love letter would’ve been better left unwritten." Gong Ruini wished she could throw the letter at Zhao Xuran.

But after thinking about it, she held back, after all, it was a love letter for her, and maybe it could come in handy later.

For example, using it to mock someone’s insincerity.

Zhao Xuran was quite flustered, "Well, I consulted Zhao Guangran."

Oh, consulted Zhao Guangran? That guy came up with this idea? Gong Ruini was stunned, please, even high schooler Zhao Guangran wouldn’t say a love letter should be written like this.

Facing Gong Ruini’s incredulous expression, Zhao Xuran confessed honestly, "I thought what he suggested was way too cheesy."

Recalling Zhao Guangran’s suggested love letter contents, Zhao Xuran couldn’t help but keep rubbing his arms.

"I really couldn’t write it and even if I did, you wouldn’t believe it." Even though it was cheesy, to prove to Gong Ruini, he casually mentioned some of what Zhao Guangran initially suggested.

It was cheesy indeed, but hopelessly clichéd, "This would dupe an innocent girl."

Things like accompanying you to watch stars, sunrise and sunset, Gong Ruini had a hunch Zhao Guangran might have read some romance novels from a certain Taiwanese aunt.

Although in later years this aunt fell from grace, at this time, her books were tremendously popular.

"Right, I just felt it wasn’t good, too unrealistic, writing so much without real actions, what to do?" Zhao Xuran saw Gong Ruini’s discontented face and felt relieved.

Seems he was right in his thinking, Ni Zi really didn’t like this style, if he had written it like that, perhaps Ni Zi’s expression would have been even worse.

Seeing Zhao Xuran’s expression of relief, the fire in Gong Ruini’s heart flared up, sure, the stuff Zhao Guangran mentioned was flashy, but you shouldn’t be this honest.

No, it shouldn’t be considered honesty, it should be stupidity.

"I think Guangran was somewhat right, that giving gifts works well." Zhao Xuran murmured, fearing Ni Zi would claim he plans to impress her with money, thinking she’d say he looked down on her.

Giving gifts? Okay, it’s a bit cheesy, but Gong Ruini expressed she doesn’t mind at all.

The biggest issue now is, even if you are giving a gift, at least bring out the gift.

"Is the gift just flowers?" Gong Ruini admitted she liked the sunlit flower house on the balcony, growing her favorite white roses, which really touched her.

But you can’t keep showcasing this as a gift repeatedly, it truly drains all appreciation.

"No, no." Zhao Xuran suddenly realized something was wrong, it seemed Ni Zi hadn’t seen the gift he gave.

"That’s not the gift, what did you give then?" Gong Ruini was puzzled, she swore she had examined the love letter thoroughly, even turned the pink envelope upside down.

There was absolutely nothing else, and no words on the envelope either.

Could it be? She stupidly took the envelope Gong Ruini threw at her and flipped it back and forth, "Huh, there really isn’t anything."

"How could it be? I remember putting it in." Zhao Xuran was dumbfounded.

Seeing Zhao Xuran’s surprised expression, Gong Ruini couldn’t help but grow suspicious, could there truly be a so-called surprise gift?

But no matter how she looked, it indeed wasn’t there, Gong Ruini steadfastly stared at Zhao Xuran.

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Xuran suddenly grabbed Gong Ruini and rushed towards his study, "It must be there."

He had truly prepared this for some time, to prevent it from being seen by others, he had been cautious for a long time.

What’s going on? Seeing how Zhao Xuran was heading to his study made Gong Ruini quite expectant.

Could it be that he recently bought some diamonds again? Or picked some jewelry for her?

Cheesy or not, I’m just an ordinary person, and I like these kinds of conventional things.

Gong Ruini was gleefully anticipating what gift she’d receive, to only find herself staring at a piece of paper when she got to the desk.

Gong Ruini had no expectations, it definitely couldn’t be a property deed, knowing any house Zhao Xuran gifted wouldn’t be a cheap one.

With the money they currently have, buying jewelry is feasible, but saying it’s a house really is a bit far-fetched.

Scanning it quickly, it was indeed not a property deed, but a design drawing.

"What is this?" She didn’t comment on the artistic skills, but at least it was understandable.

"Looks like a vacation villa."

"You’re not planning to build one out of wood, are you?" In the United States, constructing wooden houses isn’t expensive, given the abundant land and space available for tree planting, so wooden prices aren’t too high.

Gong Ruini had no comments on the aesthetics or comfort level of the house, but this gift truly disappointed her a bit.

If it was before gifting diamonds, Zhao Xuran pulling out this blueprint would have delighted and excited Gong Ruini, but now, she really couldn’t summon any excitement.

Who wouldn’t feel disillusioned after experiencing a man’s generosity, buying things left and right, and then receiving such a gift, the disparity is extraordinarily huge.

"Mhmm, didn’t you enjoy vacationing on a farm in Montana last time, saying you’d love to take your kids there for vacations someday?"

"The summers there aren’t too hot either."

"I thought I might not be able to give you this gift this time, but I guarantee by next summer at the latest, I will take you and Pingping and An An for a vacation there."

Zhao Xuran was a bit embarrassed, "Actually, I should have given a property deed by now."

Although Zhao Xuran promised he would indeed give such a gift, at this moment, apart from the drawing there was nothing else, it was like painting a pie in the sky or issuing an empty promise.

But it really couldn’t be helped, buying a ranch costs a substantial amount of money.

He, he remembered! After being in Montana for so long, Gong Ruini recalled that trip not even being mentioned again casually, especially with Zhao Guangran making jokes about how Gong Ruini would never enjoy Montana’s mundane lifestyle.

After the playful banter, the matter was forgotten, never brought up again by Gong Ruini nor mentioned by Zhao Xuran.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Xuran remembered what she said, touching Gong Ruini deeply.

Holding Zhao Xuran tightly, "Honey, you’re wonderful."

"Words alone aren’t enough, actions speak louder." Writing love letters well, complimenting girls excellently, but so what, none of it compares to having a capable husband.

"Who says my man doesn’t know how to impress like Zhao Guangran, you’re much better than him." Gong Ruini held Zhao Xuran’s head and kept kissing him.

Zhao Guangran only knows how to buy jewelry for people, doesn’t think about whether the recipient would like it, sorry, that’s not within his consideration.
