Li Nanyuan is the heir of the Li family. The patriarch of the Li family was a womanizer with four sons and three daughters. Li Nanyuan's father was also a womanizer who accomplished nothing and spent his days indulging in philandering.

Such a person can only be used for marriage alliances to consolidate the Li family's position; Li Nanyuan was a product of such an alliance.

His father was a womanizer, and his mother was weak and died young due to depression.

From a young age, Li Nanyuan had to deal with his father's mistresses and a constant stream of illegitimate children. He completed his studies early, entered the company, and spent a lot of time completely taking control of the entire Li family.

His early experiences made him precocious, allowing him to know what he wanted earlier, and he also had the ability to obtain it.

The Li family is one, and so are the others.

In the dim light of the night, Li Nanyuan sat in the shadows, his eyes flashing with determination.

After the lights were turned off, the cool moonlight drifted in, illuminating the carefully framed picture in the room. The warm yellow sunflowers shone brightly, adding a touch of warmth.

The cool, minimalist house has been transformed by a vibrant touch of warm color.

Next week, it will be the younger brother of one of Li Nanyuan's friends' birthdays, and Li Nanyuan will use this as an excuse to ask Wu Tongxue out to pick out a gift.

"He's about your age, can you help me decide what gift would be appropriate?"

In front of the counter, Wu Tongxue looked down at the several overly youthful and flashy jewelry items introduced by the sales assistant, then turned to look at Li Nanyuan.

His brother, worried he'd be bored, also sent him an invitation to his birthday party, but he'd already prepared a birthday present for him.

As for the birthday celebrant's personality, he had heard a thing or two about it; he was a flamboyant and unruly cool guy.

He probably wouldn't like these flashy accessories.

Seeing that Li Nanyuan had already picked out several items, she quickly tugged at his sleeve, "Let's browse around some more."

This place is not far from Li Nanyuan's company. Wu Tongxue came here to pick up the things that Huahua left behind last time.

Li Nanyuan had already noted down the places where his gaze lingered. "Then let's go and take a look at other places."

The sales assistant quickly and respectfully saw the two out. Having worked in such places for a long time, the faces of wealthy and powerful celebrities were etched into their minds, and they were afraid of missing out on a big sale one day.

"Sister Li, who are they?"

A newcomer, unfamiliar with the person, secretly asked out of curiosity.

"Never mind, the manager already gave us instructions yesterday anyway."

"Get back to work, another customer is here."

When he followed Li Nanyuan into the clothing store, he hesitated. Should he give them clothes?

Wu Tongxue: "This isn't suitable for him."

This is a men's formal wear store with a mature and stable style.

Li Nanyuan smiled good-naturedly, "It's not a gift. I suddenly remembered that I didn't have a matching tie for the clothes I wore that day, so I came to pick one out."

The suit did indeed suit Li Nanyuan very well. His neat slicked-back hair revealed his smooth forehead and sharp facial features, yet his smile gave people a gentle and refined feeling.

Wu Tongxue's gaze fell on him. He wore a loose cyan shirt with a notched lapel obsidian casual suit, and his dark striped tie was not as neat. He looked more casual than she had in the office.

Like a cypress tree that has stood the test of time, it stretches its branches and leaves in the wind, steady yet elegant.

It wasn't hard to tell from his bright eyes that Li Nanyuan was satisfied with his clothes; he was pleased.

"What color were your clothes that day?" Wu Tongxue asked.

My gaze swept over the ties of various colors, especially the darker ones.

Li Nanyuan seems to really like the colors black and gray, and I've seen these two colors most often around him.

Wu Tongxue looked at the sleeves of her cherry blossom pink shirt, but ultimately placed her hand on her brightly colored tie.

She picked it up for a second, then put it down again, turning to look at him. "Hmm?"

Why aren't you saying anything?

The tie that had just been put down by his fingertips appeared in a large hand the next second. "This is not bad."

Wu Tongxue's eyes lit up. "You like it too?"

The light gold patterned tie has a luxurious color scheme, with bright and flamboyant colors that are also overly ornate.

Li Nanyuan: "My attire that day was a black suit."

Well, unsurprisingly, Wu Tongxue thought for a moment and said, "How about we go take a look at other accessories?"

Wu Tongxue then selected some very ornate and sparkly tie clips and lapel chains, intending for him to go back and choose suitable ones to match himself. He was quite satisfied with his choices, but when he looked back at Li Nanyuan…

The shiny stuff doesn't seem to suit him at all.

With a slight frown, he hesitated and said, "Let's choose again."

He bought what he liked, and what he thought suited Li Nanyuan. "That's all."

Wu Tongxue was a little embarrassed and blinked as she asked him, "Isn't this a bit too much?"

She asked the question, but there was no apprehension in her eyes. Her bright, clear eyes awaited his answer.

He has never been refused a gift he has given out.

“Of course—” Li Nanyuan paused for a moment before smiling and saying, “Not much.”

Wu Tongxue gave him a light tap on the shoulder, saying, "How did you learn to do that too?"

However, he was still happy that his choice was liked, "I'll wrap all of these up."

"Swipe your card." He took out a card and handed it over.

Looking back at Li Nanyuan, she said, "I've never given you anything before. I picked these out myself, and you're not allowed to refuse."

Li Nanyuan was overjoyed and smiled gently, "Thank you for the gift, Xiaoxue."

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

Every time they met, Li Nanyuan would give him a gift, and he would have to consider giving a gift in return. Mainly, he really liked receiving gifts, as each one was an unexpected surprise.

Since Li Nanyuan has given him so many gifts, he has become more attentive to any items he encounters that match Li Nanyuan's style when he's out, since gifts chosen on the spur of the moment are rarely satisfactory.

When Wu Tongxue's shopping desires kicked in, she not only focused on helping Li Nanyuan choose a birthday gift, but also dragged him to browse stores that interested her.

They bought quite a lot of things, and Wu Tongxue even called two bodyguards to help carry them. Li Nanyuan was also carrying several shopping bags.

A woman came down the escalator from the next floor and couldn't help but scratch the ink stains. "Does that person look familiar?"

Why does he look so much like his nephew?

The woman next to her looked and exclaimed in surprise, "Isn't this your nephew?"

"Hmm, or am I seeing things wrong?" The two women looked at each other, wondering if the person carrying the things was really Li Nanyuan.

How did he end up as a bag carrier?

Wait, could the person next to him be someone he likes...?

Otherwise, how could she feel his gentle warmth from such a distance? Good heavens, he has never smiled at her, his respected aunt, like that!

She was about to go forward to take a look when her best friend stopped her in time, her expression serious. "Wait, look at this."

She flipped through the album and pulled out a photo, pointing to a blurry profile on the right. Of the three people in the photo, the other two were barely recognizable, and Li Yuezhu recognized one of them, "Zhao Wuji!"

"I heard this is his most beloved youngest son..." her best friend introduced him to her.

He then pointed at Zhao Wuji and said, "You've heard of him, right? He's the one who does things abroad..." The rest of the sentence was rather vague and ambiguous, but in any case, he was definitely a ruthless character.

Li Yuezhu looked at the two harmonious figures from behind, and opened her mouth, "Then my nephew..."

"I heard he's been talking to Zhao Wuji about a collaboration lately." Her best friend, well-informed, secretly kept an eye on the other side.

"Ah, you mean..."
