Chapter 557 - 0559: Innate Grandmaster
Watching Chu Ge’s bewildered face, Shen Yaoyao shook her hand, "A gift! Didn’t you think of getting me a gift during your twenty-something days out?"
Chu Ge coughed awkwardly. He did intend to get Shen Yaoyao something, but since Shen Yaoyao had spent so much time in Su City and it was her hometown after all, buying her local specialties from Su City would be like showing off in front of Guan Gong.*
That’s why Chu Ge didn’t prepare any gift for Shen Yaoyao.
Obviously, from Chu Ge’s expression, Shen Yaoyao could tell that he hadn’t prepared a gift for her. She pouted slightly and huffed in displeasure, "Out and about, always favoring Sister, so biased."
Mu Bingtong raised her hand and touched the Jade Rabbit Pendant that Chu Ge gave her last night. A trace of melancholy slowly crossed her heart, but with Shen Yaoyao being upset, she couldn’t appear too pleased, "Yaoyao, do you like this pendant? If you do, I could..."
Before she could finish the words ’give it to you’, Shen Yaoyao waved her hand indifferently, "No need! That’s a gift he specially picked for you. What does it mean if you give it to me?"
At a glance, it didn’t seem like much, but a closer taste revealed a tang of jealousy in those words.
But at this moment, Chu Ge and Mu Bingtong didn’t have the extra mental capacity to ponder these nuances.
Chu Ge just smiled apologetically, "Next time I go out, I’ll definitely prepare a gift for you."
Upon hearing this, Mu Bingtong glanced sideways at Chu Ge with suspicion and asked, "You’re going out again?"
