Chapter 731: Chapter 731
Zhan Dapeng really wanted to slap his forehead in frustration.
Zhang Sanfeng’s complexion, naturally because of her deliberately probing question, became even more embarrassingly awkward. His face turned a shade of green, but he could only feign composure and said, "I mistook someone."
"Mistook who?" Zhong Qiaohui looked around and asked, "What’s the matter? Do you know someone here? Come on, do you want me to call out for you? What’s their name?"
Seeing that she was getting into it, Zhang Sanfeng’s face went from green to black, and he suddenly said to Zhan Dapeng, "Let’s go upstairs."
"Aren’t you going to check anymore?" Zhan Dapeng harbored a bit of worry inside him.
It’s said to be a gift from Brother Zhang, but if someone tampered with it without Brother Zhang’s knowledge...
"What exactly happened?" A sense of bad news was palpable, and Zhong Qiaohui narrowed her eyes, her tone becoming more serious as she asked.
Zhang Sanfeng was also hesitant, and finally, he looked up at her and said, "May I take a look?"
Zhong Qiaohui was taken aback. Although she knew that he was not asking for that reason, after all, he was doing this out of concern for her.
Before she could respond, Zhan Dapeng stepped forward and took the gift box that was on the counter.
It was a small box, he weighed it in his palm, and it seemed not too heavy.
Was it chocolate? Flowers? Cake? Clothes? Skincare products?
Zhan Dapeng couldn’t guess.
He looked back at Zhang Sanfeng.
If this thing was suspected to be problematic, it definitely shouldn’t be brought upstairs. But if they called the police to deal with it and Brother Zhang found out later, especially learning that his own brother was involved, it would certainly not be good for the brothers’ relationship.
Zhang Sanfeng looked up at Zhong Qiaohui, waiting for her decision.
Zhong Qiaohui spread her hands, indicating that she didn’t mind either way. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩⚫𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⚫𝔫𝔢𝔱
Zhan Dapeng then clenched his teeth and pulled open the pink ribbon that was tied on the gift box on the spot. He lifted the lid of the red gift box, and what appeared before the three of them was a Barbie doll.
Zhang Sanfeng’s face instantly altered again, his sharp eyes immediately shot towards Zhong Qiaohui’s face.
Indeed, a complex flavor appeared in Zhong Qiaohui’s eyes. She then looked back at him and said, "That thing I only ever told you. Did you tell him?"
Once, when she was very young, she had secretly told a boy she had a crush on, "I like a certain type of Barbie doll, could you give me one for my birthday?"
At that time, she was an unattractive girl, while he was a heartthrob with a myriad of admirers and secret crushes. As for her words, they were treated like the words of an ugly toad, turned into a joke and shared with his friends.
The consequences of her childhood arrogance, now, all came to light.
In Zhang Sanfeng’s heart, it felt like something was squeezing fiercely, an almost suffocating sensation.
It seemed as though Zhong Qiaohui let out a small hum from her lips, and she didn’t need to think to know what it was all about.
Why was she so unlucky to have fallen for such a boy in her childhood, a boy who never took her seriously, who only mocked her for being ugly and fat?
They say women love to torment themselves, and it’s absolutely true.
Unexpectedly, his brother had taken his words to heart. She didn’t know what Brother Zhang was thinking, but indeed, he had sent her the Barbie doll she had longed for since she was young, fulfilling her wish and also signifying a special intention to please her.
