Chapter 489 - Mommy Fen, You Should Help Me! (1)
Meanwhile, Xiao Bao wandered around with his Uncle Beixiuan, hoping that he would eventually find a decent present for his mother.
"Baobao, what do you have in mind? Have you thought of anything that your mommy would like for her birthday?" Tang Beixuan asked.
They had gone to a few shops already and had seen the trendy shoes and clothes for women. They also checked the expensive watches on display, but nothing piqued the little young master's interest.
"Let's look around some more, Uncle. Mommy already has everything she needs. I don't know what to give those to her for her birthday." In fact, he and Little Star had been thinking about it for days, but none of them could come up with a good idea of what to give as a present.
If they kept wandering around, refusing to buy anything, Tang Beixuan felt that this trip would be useless. In fact, the little boy didn't even have to worry about the money, since Feng Tianyi had also given him the same card his twin sister had.
Since his and Little Star's savings wouldn't be sufficient to pay for their purchases, their daddy had taken the initiative to cover their expenses while teaching them the concept of money.
Tang Beixuan tried to suppress the urge to groan after hearing his nephew's answer. They had been wandering around for over two hours and they hadn't bought anything.
Anyway, not that he couldn't understand his nephew. His elder sister was so rich, she didn't need anything. What could they buy that she couldn't get herself anyway?
Next, they entered a jewelry store and Little Feiyu took the initiative to look around. One of the staff in the store greeted him and his uncle, but he ignored her. Tang Beixuan thanked her in return and followed his young nephew immediately.
Something caught the young boy's attention and he saw a black velvet box with a pair of earrings and a necklace on it.
"Miss, I'd like to have a look at that one, please." Xiao Bao told the shop assistant.
"These come as a set. They are made with sapphire. Are you looking for a present? You have a keen eye, Young Master. Every jewelry in this store is uniquely designed and couldn't be found anywhere else."
The jewelry here were all exquisite on their own, but only this sapphire set had managed to grab Young Master Tang's attention. Since this set was a single item, this should be a good present for his mommy, because like Tang Moyu, there could be no one else like her in this world.
When Xiao Bao furrowed his brows upon hearing the word sapphire. He didn't know anything about expensive stones, but this deep blue sapphire would surely complement his mommy's fair and smooth complexion.
His mommy rarely wore any jewelry and only sported one when there's an occasion. Since she had recently married with his daddy and with her upcoming birthday, Xiao Bao thought that it was only proper for her to receive an expensive present like this.
His obsidian eyes caught the price tag of the jewelry set and saw that it was two hundred thousand. Since he'd been taught recently by his father on how to count beyond one thousand, Xiao Bao knew that this set was really an expensive one.
The little boy thought for a moment. Even though his daddy said that sky was the limit for this trip to purchase their mommy's present, he was reminded by his mother's words that there's no need to spend lavishly on things that could only give temporary happiness.
Finally, he pursed his lips and was about to pull out the black card his daddy had given him earlier and told the shop assistant nonchalantly.
"I'm taking this. Please wrap this for me, Miss."
However, just when the shop assistant was about to wrap the jewelry set and was about to receive the rare black card from the little boy, they heard a woman's domineering tone behind them.
"Wrap all the jewelry I looked at." Her eyes then caught the sapphire set in Xiao Bao's little hands. "Including that one!" She pointed out.
Xiao Bao raised an eyebrow at this seemingly familiar woman. He was sure he had seen this woman before. His young mind tried to remember where he had seen her until it clicked to him that this woman was with that old woman who tried to bully his mommy during his Auntie Yaoyao's wedding.
Tang Beixuan also scowled upon seeing who it was. Wasn't this woman called Xing Yiyue? And by the looks of it, her companions today were some E-rated actresses in the show business.
Did she just dare to snatch his sister's gift from Xiao Bao? The audacity of this woman!
"I'm sorry, Miss but this little boy has already agreed to purchase this one." The shop attendant told Xing Yiyue apologetically.
"What?" Xing Yiyue frowned then looked at the boy in front of her. Only then she noticed that the boy refused to return the sapphire set she was eyeing. "Little boy, leave that one alone, could you? This pretty auntie has taken a liking on it and has seen it first." She told Xiao Bao.
Xing Yiyue wasn't sure why, but this boy looked familiar to her. Alas, she would remember this boy only if her mind was not clouded by the need to brag in front of her acquaintances today.
In truth, she had no intention of spending a lot of money today, she just didn't anticipate that she would meet her colleagues while she was shopping.
"Old auntie, didn't you hear what this pretty miss told you?" The shop assistant blushed from the sudden compliment she heard from the boy, because compared to Xing Yiyue, her face was nothing. "I saw it too and I like it."
