Kasumigaoka Utaha sighed sadly. Ever since she had a frank meeting with this man, she had become a little more straightforward when facing him than before.
Thinking back carefully, as a "girlfriend", she really has never enjoyed this treatment! Even Mashiro had the experience of Ji Qi buying clothes for her personally!
"Don't be jealous of your own parents."
Ji Qi said with some amusement, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and subconsciously put one hand in his coat pocket.
There, there was a heavy box.
The heavy implications of it made it almost impossible for him to lift it.
Looking at the mature and charming goddess at hand, Ji Qi's face showed a conflicted expression. No matter from which angle, Kasumigaoka Utaha is the top girl that men dream of, and she herself has outstanding talents. She can be said to be a first-class talent.
Such a charming woman fell in love with him so wholeheartedly, but he couldn't even give her a ring or a promise?
Ji Qi thought of the girls at home again. They were actually the same.
He sighed in his heart, hesitated for a long time, and then Ji Qi retracted his hand.
He thought he was not qualified to give it away for the time being, so he decided to wait until next time when he had the chance.
Ji Qi tried to find a reason to comfort himself and forced a smile, "When we get to Ginza, I will help Shi Yu pick out a Christmas gift, or whatever you want."
Although she noticed that Ji Qi was a little strange, she didn't know the specific reason. Kasumigaoka Utaha showed her signature teasing smile on her face and continued to talk:
"Ah, seeing how wealthy the protagonist is, does that mean I'm being kept?"
When this slightly sensitive and delicate word was used to describe herself, her expression did not show any hurt or wavering. However, only she knew what she was thinking in her heart.
"Shiyu is lying again. We are communicating with each other through our hearts and exploring each other's beautiful qualities!"
Taking in the sweet fragrance from the girl, Ji Qi said without blushing or beating his heart.
"Oh? Really? You forced me to wear black stockings that night, and asked me to help you—"
Kasumigaoka Utaha glanced at him and exposed his true colors with a contemptuous tone. Ji Qi, who was not used to talking about such explosive topics on the street, coughed and quickly stopped the girl from continuing.
Women are naturally superior in this regard!
Shiyu did not continue teasing her embarrassed boyfriend. The two of them just snuggled together and walked along the street, slowly walking towards the subway station.
moment.
In the swaying subway, Kasumigaoka Utaha half-leaned in his arms amid the envious gazes of most passers-by, and slowly said:
"Speaking of which, are the ones in your family okay?"
"Ah? What problems can there be with them? They are not children anymore." Ji Qi pretended not to understand anything. There are some things that he knew, but it would be bad to say them out loud.
"But there are girls who need more care than children."
Kasumigaoka Utaha said with a smile, and at the same time she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although she wanted to monopolize Ji Qi, Sagiri Mashiro's special situation made her a little worried involuntarily.
"Let's talk about what happened at noon. Um, your parents won't pick up weapons and hack people when I get here, right?"
Perhaps because he felt guilty, Ji Qi lacked confidence, but there was nothing he could do. He did that kind of thing secretly without even confirming their relationship. Any parent would be angry.
But you may not believe it, but it was your daughter who took the initiative that night!
He complained silently. Of course, he only dared to think about it in his head and could not say it out loud.
The girl with long straight black hair lifted a few strands of hair in front of her forehead and looked at Ji Qi mischievously. She rarely saw Ji Qi, who was always mature and steady, showing such a panicked and awkward expression.
Only at this time would she realize that Ji Qi was a seventeen-year-old boy like her.
Chapter 478 Exposed?
Ginza, the most representative main commercial district in Tokyo, Japan, is known as the most expensive place in Asia and is also renowned as one of the three most famous streets in the world. The streets here are almost all high-end shopping stores, and there are rarely many student groups in other commercial streets nearby. Most of them are tourists from other countries and local adults.
These high-end stores that were out of reach for Ji Qi in the past are now no different from roadside convenience stores to him.
The two of them were walking on the sidewalk, talking and laughing. They didn't look like a student couple at all. Instead, they looked more like a young man and a rich lady who had sneaked out of a wealthy family.
Because she often comes here to buy things for convenience recently, Ji Qi is much more familiar with the place than Kasumigaoka Utaha who is completely clueless. He takes her to the place she wants to go with ease.
This is a luxury jewelry store, and even in Ginza where luxury goods are everywhere, it is one of the very high-end ones.
Since the real gift has not been chosen out, Ji Qi naturally would not be stingy with anything as compensation.
Walking into the store, it is said that women love shiny things as much as dragons. Ji Qi was skeptical at first, but when he saw the amazed look on his senior's face, he understood what this said.
"Do you like the necklace?"
Ji Qi casually looked at the precious jewelry designed by famous masters on the counter and asked.
Kasumigaoka Utaha, who was hugging his arms, paused and felt a surge of joy in her heart. After coming to this store, she knew what Ji Qi was going to do. After all, he would never give these things to his parents.
Buying actively and not buying are two different meanings.
However, when she saw those things that were worth millions, even though her novels were selling well and she had no shortage of money, she had a vague concept of money. But at this moment, she also personally experienced the huge gap between the two of them.
No matter how beautiful love is, it cannot escape the reality.
Although she looks like a high school student but has actually integrated into the society, Kasumigaoka Utaha sighed secretly. Fortunately, she knew that Ji Qi was not the kind of man who would turn bad once he got rich, so she didn't have to worry about anything. Otherwise, even if she was dumped now, she would have no way to deal with it.
Suppressing the annoying thoughts, she said with a smile:
"I can do it."
If Ji Qi was an ordinary person or an ordinary author who was still drawing comics, she would definitely stop Ji Qi from buying random things. Anyway, for her who values feelings, the gift is not important. But after knowing his wealth, she would not hesitate for this little money.
"Shall I help you choose?"
Ji Qi squeezed her hand. He felt that a gift would only be meaningful if it was chosen and given personally.
Shi Yu responded sweetly, "Okay," like a girlfriend accepting her boyfriend's flattery. At this moment, the waitress came up to greet her warmly. After seeing Ji Qi's face, the waitress' eyes lit up. Knowing that this was an extremely rare big customer, she said respectfully:
"Sir, are you... are you going to buy a necklace for your girlfriend?"
The waiter glanced at Kasumigaoka Utaha's slender white fingers and realized that he might have said something wrong, so he changed his words calmly.
Because the ring he bought last time was obviously not for this girl!
"..."
again?
Kasumigaoka Utaha, who keenly noticed this little detail, narrowed her bright big eyes slightly.
What does this mean? It means he has been here before!
Based on her understanding of Ji Qi, he was obviously not the type of person who liked to visit this kind of store, and he was very purposeful and would not visit similar stores unless he was buying something, which meant...
He has bought things from here for other girls or has shopped with them! He might even have bought diamond rings!
When she thought of this, a wave of bitterness like a tide surged into the girl's heart, chilling her to the bone.
Although she had prepared herself before she pounced on him that night, when it really happened in front of her, Kasumigaoka Utaha still felt a tightness in her chest.
But this is also a very normal thing. It would be more correct to say that being indifferent is a problem.
For the time being, Ji Qi had not noticed anything unusual about Kasumigaoka Utaha, or rather, he did not care about this small detail. He roughly scanned the styles in the store, and then took a fancy to a necklace inlaid with gems and diamonds. After confirming that this model would definitely suit Utaha, he nodded with satisfaction, took out his card and paid the money readily, making the smile on the waiter's face even brighter. For every high-priced item like this sold, their commission would be more than two months' salary.
After receiving the exquisite gift box and the 20% off membership card, Ji Qi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile:
"Then let's go buy gifts for uncle and aunt."
Kasumigaoka Utaha responded indifferently. Ji Qi looked at his watch. Afraid of being late and leaving a bad impression on others, he quickened his pace a little and walked towards the shopping mall next door.
At this time, Ji Qi found that the girl next to him seemed to be in a low mood.
Confused, he stopped and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you like this?"
"No." Shiyu answered sullenly. Compared with her previous cold and aloof appearance when she kept everything hidden deep in her heart, she is now getting less and less good at hiding her emotions in front of him.
Ji Qi was silent for a while. He didn't care that this was a busy shopping mall. He picked up the box in his hand and carefully took out the diamond necklace he had just bought from it. He said:
"Let me help you put it on."
She pursed her lips, and finally did not throw a tantrum or ask any questions, and stood in front of Ji Qi in a coquettish manner.
Ji Qi grabbed the necklace in his hand and put it on the girl in front of him carefully and solemnly, as if he was treating something solemn.
Shiyu stared at him quietly, and for a moment, her previous little emotions disappeared, replaced by a warm current in her heart like a hot spring, which made her intoxicated.
She could feel Ji Qi's seriousness. Just like she had said before, she didn't care whether the gift was valuable or not. What mattered was the thought behind it.
And what happened in the jewelry store, maybe she was overthinking it? Maybe Ji Qi was scouting the place in advance to pick a gift for her? Maybe this was a store he frequented, which indirectly showed his appreciation for her?
Although it might sound like self-deception to think this way, she didn't want to think about it anymore at this moment.
"It really suits you. If you wear the dress, Shiyu will be regarded as a princess."
Taking two steps back, Ji Qi exclaimed in admiration when he saw Shi Yu, who was adorned with a necklace and looked extremely charming and dazzling.
"Well, you are very smooth-talking, but I will accept your flattery for now."
After receiving praise from her lover, her eyebrows gradually curved into crescents. Her smile was shallow, but sweet enough.
Seeing Shiyu's mood change from gloomy to sunny, Ji Qi smiled and took the initiative to hold her hand.
Chapter 479 Meet the parents!
Maybe he didn't know much about clothes and luxury goods, but he was very skilled in buying gifts. Plus, he had money so he didn't have to worry too much, so he soon left the pedestrian street of Ginza carrying two large bags.
The next step is naturally the highlight of the day - visiting my parents.
In a way, this is more important than spending Christmas with Shiyu, after all, it concerns the future life. A marriage without the support of family, bah, love will not be happy.
Therefore, Ji Qi was fully prepared for this "visit".
No one interrupted the process, and no bloody incidents occurred. He arrived at the Kasumigaoka house smoothly.
Kasumigaoka Utaha's home is not quite the same as her. If Utaha is a literary girl who exudes elegance from head to toe, then her home is just an ordinary residence. It is neither too big nor too small, a little smaller than his second-floor house, but it has a sense of warmth and security of an ordinary family. It is an ordinary apartment with ordinary decoration, pursuing practicality rather than fancy and gorgeousness.
He turned off his cell phone, knocked on the door with his senior, changed his shoes, and came to the living room, where he saw two neatly dressed middle-aged men and women watching TV.
Would Shiyu’s father target him right away?
Isn’t it said that men are all daughter-obsessed? Especially when they know their daughter’s precious virginity has been taken away, it would be strange if they would be in a good mood!
Because he was in the wrong, Ji Qi swallowed guiltily. Shi Yu next to him seemed to sense that he was a little nervous and took the initiative to hold his hand.
However, it was obvious that he was judging others by his own mean standards. After he took the gift and formally bowed to Kasumigaoka's parents and simply greeted them, although he could vaguely sense that the father was unhappy, he still welcomed his arrival gently and generously.
But when he heard his name, Shiyu's father, who was the editor-in-chief of a newspaper, seemed a little thoughtful. He always felt that he had heard this rather special name somewhere.
"Ah, you are the 'Ji Qijun' that Shiyu often mentioned. You are indeed a handsome man."
Shiyu's mother, who was sitting opposite Ji Qi, took a good look at the boy and her daughter who was hugging his arms. She secretly sighed that girls cannot be kept when they grow up, and said with a smile. It seemed like a polite remark, but judging from his appearance alone, she was really satisfied with Ji Qi.
Moreover, the place where you live changes your temperament and the way you take care of your body. After working in the society for a long time and controlling transactions involving tens-digit amounts at any time, Ji Qi's temperament has long been completely different from what it was at the beginning.
Although the difference in status between the two parties made Ji Qi somewhat uncomfortable with this occasion, he still scratched his head and greeted them openly.
Shiyu's mother looks very much like Shiyu - or rather, it is Shiyu who looks very much like her. Apart from the mature bunted-up hairstyle, they look like they were cast in the same mold. When you see her, you can imagine what Shiyu will look like when she grows up.
"I heard that Ji Qijun and Shiyu are both in high school, right?"
At this time, Shiyu's mother, whose age did not hide her gracefulness, mentioned it casually.
coming!
The household registration issue that the mother-in-law is most concerned about!
Sure enough, even the two-dimensional Japanese world can't escape this custom?
After complaining in his heart, Ji Qi perked up and nodded, "Yes, after school starts, it will be the third year of high school."
"Ji Qijun's grades are better than mine. He is usually among the top three in his age group."
After she finished speaking, before her mother could say anything, Shiyu took the initiative to belittle herself and flatter her boyfriend. Maybe she usually likes to attack with a sharp tongue, but she still knows what to say in any occasion. At this time, she cares more about the impression of Ji Qi in the eyes of her parents than anyone else.
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Shiyu's parents were really a little surprised. They knew their daughter's academic performance since she was a child, but they didn't expect Ji Qi to be a top student?
In Asia, learning is undoubtedly the best way to change one's destiny. Unconsciously, the two people's impression of him has been elevated to a higher level.
"I wonder how Ji Qijun and Shiyu know each other?"
After a pause, Shiyu's mother asked with great interest. Half of her intention was to "check the household registration", and the other half was just gossip in her mind.
"At first it was because of the novel. At that time, I saw a new writer award from a certain library, and I had the idea of writing. Then when I was preparing to submit my manuscript, I found out by chance that Shiyu was also a novelist, so I plucked up the courage to get to know her. After saying hello, I found that Shiyu was not as cold and unkind as she said she was. In fact, she was very gentle and caring. So in the process of getting along with her and discussing writing together, I inevitably fell in love with such an excellent girl."
