Chapter 317: Gu Zheng Isn’t Her Senior

Qiao Xi took down the diamond crown and held it in her hand. She was choked up. “Thank you.”

She did not expect to receive her birthday present meant for when she turned 10 years old when she was 20 years old.

Gu Zheng went to attend the donation ceremony while Qiao Xi stood there holding the diamond crown.

“Miss Qiao.”

At this moment, a gentle male voice sounded.

Lu Yan walked over in a light-colored suit with a warm smile on his face. He handed the box to her. “Miss Qiao, this is for you.”

Qiao Xi’s brows were knitted together tightly.

Another gift?

She really could not understand why Lu Yan would take the initiative to approach her when he knew that she and Gu Zheng were husband and wife.

“Mr. Lu, there’s no need.”

Lu Yan was not angry. His expression remained indifferent. “Qiao Xi, you know my identity.”

Qiao Xi’s heart tightened.

Lu Yan smiled. “Your brother should have told you who I am.”

Qiao Xi choked. Third Brother did tell her that she had a fiancé, and that person was Lu Yan.

Lu Yan smiled deeply. “Miss Qiao, to be honest, I really like you and won’t hurt you, so there’s no need for you to keep a distance from me.”

Qiao Xi’s face was filled with vigilance. “No matter what your objective is, I shouldn’t have any contact with you!”

Lu Yan was silent for a moment. His eyes were filled with disappointment, but he still insisted on handing the box to her. His voice carried a hint of pleading. “Open it and take a look.”

Seeing that Qiao Xi didn’t do anything, Lu Yan opened the box for her. A diamond crown was quietly placed in the box. It was decorated with gold foil and gems that glittered under the light.

Qiao Xi was a designer herself, so she understood the value of this crown. This crown was the work of a famous designer, Wright. He had only designed this piece, and it disappeared after an auction a few years ago. Its value was immeasurable.

Lu Yan smiled bitterly. “This crown has been left there for ten years as I hadn’t found its owner. It’s a little old now. You might not like it anymore, but I still hope that you’ll accept it. If you can’t accept it, then you can throw it away.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he passed the box to Qiao Xi before turning around and leaving resolutely.

Qiao Xi’s face was covered in shock while her heart was filled with bewilderment.

Why did Lu Yan give her this crown that he said had been left alone for ten years? Did it mean that Lu Yan had kept it for ten years after buying it?

Lu Yan stopped in his tracks and turned around slightly. “I’m sorry I didn’t manage to bid for the island. I originally decided to give it to you even if I had to go bankrupt. Unfortunately… my ability is limited. I’ll definitely work hard next time. I’ll do my best to give you whatever you like.”

Qiao Xi’s heart twitched. “Lu Yan, how did you know?”

How could Lu Yan be so clear about her birthday wish as a ten-year-old back then?

Lu Yan’s eyes were filled with loneliness. “I know everything, but all of this is meaningless. I only hope that I can do my best to treat you well in the future.”

He sighed sadly and strode away.

Qiao Xi stood silently on the spot, yet her heart was in chaos.

She had only told her senior about her wish back when she was ten years old. Even her brother and grandfather did not know, so how did Lu Yan know?

Moreover, Lu Yan bought this crown ten years ago. What kind of secret was this?

Who was Lu Yan?

Gu Zheng told Song Shiyu to return to the Longwan Residential first. When Qiao Xi got into the car, she realized that Gu Zheng was already waiting in the car.

Qiao Xi was unable to calm down for a long time, and she lowered her head.

“What did Lu Yan say?”

Gu Zheng’s voice was cold as if he was suppressing something.

Qiao Xi silently held the box Lu Yan gave her.

As Gu Zheng looked at the box, anger gradually rose in his heart.

Lu Yan was good at scheming. He must have said something to make Qiao Xi so unhappy.

With Qiao Xi’s attitude, did she believe Lu Yan and was now suspecting Gu Zheng?

Qiao Xi was slightly hesitant. “He gave me a diamond crown and said… He said many things that confused me.”

Gu Zheng clenched his fists tightly, his expression dark.

Qiao Xi took a deep breath. “He seems to be reminding me that he’s my senior.”

When Lu Yan was competing for the island, he had laid the groundwork. Now, he even gave her a crown. She had only told her senior about these things. How did Lu Yan know?

Everything Lu Yan did was to remind her that Gu Zheng was not her senior..
