"Wait for me a moment, Yuxin. I'll be right back."
Ye Feng stood outside a gift shop, speaking to Su Yuxin beside him, but she seemed completely lost in her own thoughts, showing no reaction. From time to time, she let out strange giggles.
"Ehehe~"
"Ehehehe~"
"Ye Feng, big brother~"
"......"
Seeing Su Yuxin’s odd behavior, Ye Feng had no choice but to guide her to a nearby bench to rest before heading toward the gift shop.
"Hello, welcome!"
"Hello, I’d like to buy some small jewelry or accessories suitable as gifts for girls."
As soon as he entered the shop, Ye Feng explained his request to the sales assistant.
"Of course, sir. Please follow me."
Under the assistant’s guidance, Ye Feng was led to a section displaying an array of exquisite gifts. After thanking her, he began browsing.
"Hmm... I don’t know exactly what they’d like, but asking would ruin the surprise. I’ll just pick based on their preferences."
After some deliberation, Ye Feng nodded slightly at the neatly wrapped gifts before him.
"This red butterfly glass hairpin is for Meng Li. This black agate bracelet is for Mu Cheng. And this pink strawberry gemstone ring is for Yuxin."
Once he finalized the three gifts, his gaze shifted to the last item—a pale blue pendant. His eyes instantly dimmed with melancholy.
"Yu Yan..."
......
"Sir, the total for these pieces comes to one million coins..."
The sales assistant glanced at the price displayed on the register, pursing her lips slightly. After all, Ye Feng was her customer, and the commission from these sales alone was substantial. Her attitude toward him grew even more respectful.
"Sure, I’ll pay by card. Thank you."
"O-of course. Please take care, sir."
With the elegantly wrapped gift bags in hand, Ye Feng headed toward the exit. Su Yuxin was still waiting outside, and her earlier behavior suggested she wasn’t in the best state. The thought made him quicken his pace.
"Mmm... ehehe, Ye Feng, you’re so naughty~"
Su Yuxin snapped out of her daze after wiping a bit of drool, only to realize Ye Feng was no longer beside her.
Huh?! Where’s Ye Feng?!
Wait, didn’t he just go into this shop? But they don’t sell little boxes here... I thought you could get those at convenience stores.
Just as she was about to step inside, she spotted Ye Feng walking out, carrying several shopping bags. Immediately, she called out his name and rushed toward him.
"Ye Feng, big brother~"
Thud!
Ye Feng had barely stepped out of the store, his hands full of gifts. The reason he’d spent so much without hesitation was to make amends—however small—to the girls whose lives he’d affected.
Hearing rapid footsteps, he looked up to see Su Yuxin, who had been sitting on the bench, now sprinting toward him.
"Yuxin, wait—"
Before he could finish, Su Yuxin barreled into him like a cannonball, tilting her head up and pouting as he held the shopping bags high above her.
"Honestly, Ye Feng! Where did you go?! Don’t you know every second is precious right now?!"
"Uh... Yuxin, calm down. Didn’t I tell you I was going to buy something?"
"Ye Feng, what you wanted isn’t sold here! You have to go to a convenience store! Geez..."
"Huh? A convenience store? They don’t sell jewelry there!"
"Wh-what?! Jewelry?!"
Realizing his meaning wasn’t what she’d imagined, Su Yuxin froze for a moment before turning red with embarrassment. She buried her face in his chest, pounding her fists against him in frustration.
"Ugh! You’re so stupid, Ye Feng! I’m ignoring you!"
With that, she crossed her arms and stomped her foot in mock anger, inwardly scolding herself for overthinking things and feeling flustered over her own wild assumptions.
Ye Feng, utterly baffled by her behavior, stood there awkwardly with the shopping bags, unsure how to react—especially with how flushed her face had become.
Mmm...
When Ye Feng remained silent behind her, Su Yuxin began to worry.
Did I upset him with my tantrum? I shouldn’t have said that! Why did I even say I’d ignore him?! Su Yuxin, you’re such an idiot...
Just as she was about to turn around and apologize, a shopping bag slowly descended into her line of sight.
"Huh? This is..."
She looked up to see Ye Feng standing behind her, smiling as he nodded.
"Take it, Yuxin. It’s a gift for you. Though it might not mean much..."
"That’s not true!"
Su Yuxin snatched the bag and hugged it tightly before turning to face him with earnest eyes.
"Anything you give me, Ye Feng, I’ll treasure it forever!"
"Yuxin... thank you."
"Ehehe~"
Unable to contain her curiosity, she peeked inside the bag—though all she could see was a delicate little box hiding the jewelry within.
"Ye Feng, can I open it now?"
"Of course. It’s yours now."
"Okay!"
Su Yuxin eagerly tore open the bag and, with bated breath, lifted the lid of the jewelry box. Inside lay a strawberry-colored gemstone ring, intricately carved. Her eyes widened in shock, and she clapped a hand over her mouth.
"This... this is!!!"
"Yeah, it’s a gif—"
"It’s an engagement ring!!!"
Bonk!
A familiar flick landed on her forehead, making her pout as she rubbed her head and glared at him.
"Oww! Ye Feng, you bully! Why do you keep picking on me?!"
"Yuxin, watch your wording! What engagement ring?! It’s just a gift, got it?!"
Ye Feng nearly choked on his own breath. He had no idea what went on in that girl’s head sometimes.
"Oh... just a gift?"
Her expression fell for a moment before a mischievous glint returned to her eyes.
"Ye Feng, big brother~"
The sudden shift in her tone sent alarm bells ringing in his mind.
Oh no. The little demon’s back!

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead?

And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
