My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 516: Chapter 516: Don’t Worry, I’m Here

So he had prepared the gift for the visit in advance for her? Rong Yan was stunned for a moment, then stuffed the velvet box back, “Stop kidding, this pearl necklace is worth at least a million; if I give this to Mrs. Lin, she’ll know right away it was bought by you.”

She didn’t have the financial capability yet to give such expensive gifts—it would be nothing but a pretense.

Besides, Lin Zhiya was already a wealthy lady and didn’t lack luxury jewelry. Even if the gift she gave was expensive, it might not necessarily make the recipient happy.

Rong Yan had her own plans and stubbornly handed the box back to him, saying, “I don’t need this from you. I’ll buy some gifts myself later when I visit. You don’t have to worry about it!”

Li Shengxiao narrowed his eyes, remembering what Estelle had reported to him about this young woman’s lack of money. He pursed his lips, took back the box, and pulled out his wallet, handing her a black card from inside, “This is a supplementary card of mine; you can use it for now.”

Rong Yan, “…”

Why did it feel like it wasn’t she who was going to visit the elders, but him — with the way he was preparing gifts and giving her a bank card?

Worried that if she refused, Li Shengxiao might give her something else, she simply accepted the card and said, “I got it. After all, you gave me a card before. I’ll just put them together.”

The day they went to get their marriage certificate, Li Shengxiao had given her a card, but she had only used it to buy him a sweater. She hadn’t touched it since!

If he wanted to give, she would take it; whether to use it or not, that was her decision.

Before she left the house earlier, she had already borrowed 30,000 yuan from Gu Linxi, which had been transferred to her phone. If nothing unexpected happened, that amount would be enough.

Fearing that he would force her to use his card, Rong Yan quickly changed the subject, turning to the front of the vehicle and said, “Assistant Gu, let’s go to the city center first.”

“Okay,” Gu Ming reversed the car, turned it around, and headed for the city center…

The journey was unimpeded.

Once in the city center, Rong Yan headed straight for the shop she had in mind to buy gifts. She chose a simple, family-friendly massage chair and picked out some nutritional supplements suitable for middle-aged and elderly people. Lastly, she bought some fruit, returning to the vehicle with her arms full of items.

“Okay, we can go now.”

“Yes.”

Gu Ming had accompanied her shopping and, seeing Rong Yan carefully select the most suitable products for the middle-aged and elderly, also knew the price of the massage chair. He felt his impression of Rong Yan rise a bit more than before.

It wasn’t that the massage chair Rong Yan bought was particularly expensive—at just over 10,000 it was actually quite cheap compared to the gifts others often gave the lady—but he had seen Miss Rong ask the seller carefully, especially paying attention to the massage function for the lower back, and even tried it herself before deciding to make the purchase.

How should one put it? It wasn’t that the item was cheap, but even he, as an outsider, could feel the sincere intention behind it.

It was Miss Rong’s hope that her gift would genuinely be useful to the lady; it was that kind of intention.

The Lincoln glided smoothly to a stop outside a white building. Even before the car had come to a halt, Little Baby inside spotted someone waiting outside.

“It’s Grandma!”

Rong Yan also saw the person waiting at the entrance and felt an inexplicable nervousness.

Gu Ming parked the car and was the first to get out, helping to open the door and said softly, “Mr. Li, Miss Rong, young master, we’ve arrived.”

Li Duidui was the first one to be carried out.

Just as Rong Yan was about to follow suit, her wrist was suddenly grasped by the man beside her, and a steady, comforting voice filled the car, “Don’t be nervous, I’m here with you!”
