Hearing her brother say that, Qiao Luo felt somewhat relieved. However, she didn't want him to get involved, so she said, "It's just a few words, it's not that serious. By the way, did you need something?"

Qiao Luo changed the subject.

Qiao Yuanzhe paused for a moment before speaking, "Actually, it's nothing much. I just haven't seen my sister for a few days, so I wanted to come and visit, and also give you this."

As he spoke, Qiao Yuanzhe took out an exquisite jewelry box from his pocket and placed it in front of Qiao Luo.

Qiao Luo was very surprised.

"what is this?"

Qiao Yuanzhe was somewhat shy, especially when talking to women, including his sister.

"...You'll see when you open it."

He looked a little strange, so Qiao Luo curiously opened the jewelry box, only to be stunned when she saw what was inside.

"Yuanzhe, what's wrong with you?"

Qiao Luo looked at Qiao Yuanzhe sitting opposite her with surprise. She did not expect that there was a beautiful platinum necklace in there. Both the style and the material were of the highest quality.

"Sis, I don't know what to give you for your wedding. I found this necklace by chance and I think it matches your style. I thought I'd give it to you as a wedding gift, but I don't know if you'll like it."

Qiao Yuanzhe said somewhat embarrassedly.

Qiao Luo was deeply moved when she heard him say it was a wedding gift for her. These past few days, her wedding had caused chaos at home, and she hadn't received a single blessing, let alone a gift.

On the surface, she seems indifferent to these things, but in fact, she cares more than anyone else.

Upon seeing the gift Qiao Yuanzhe had given her, she could no longer hold back her tears, which streamed down her face.

When Qiao Yuanzhe saw her crying, he thought it was because she didn't like the gift he had given her, so he quickly handed her a tissue and said, "Don't cry, sister. If you don't like it, I'll go and change it right away."

As she spoke, she was about to get up with the jewelry box when Qiao Luo stopped her.

"Yuanzhe, your sister likes your gift, she really likes it."

Qiao Luo said while wiping away her tears.

Qiao Yuanzhe finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Qiao Luo composed herself before speaking, "But, sister can't accept it."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Yuanzhe was taken aback. "Why?"

Qiao Luo: "You don't have a formal job or any savings. This necklace doesn't look cheap. Where did you get the money to buy it?"

Despite being overjoyed at receiving the gift, Qiao Luo still maintained a degree of rationality.

After all, Qiao Yuanzhe had been wandering around ever since he dropped out of school, and it could be said that he had never worked a single day properly.

Given his circumstances, it would be remarkable if he could even keep himself from freezing or suffering outside; how could he possibly afford such a gift?

Qiao Luo didn't want him to do anything bad just to give her a gift, which is why she asked that question.

This question really stumped Qiao Yuanzhe. A hint of panic flashed across his face, but he quickly covered it up.

"Sis, I have my own ways of making money, you don't need to worry about that."

Hearing him say that, Qiao Luo was already somewhat certain. She took Qiao Yuanzhe's hand, which was resting on the table, and said:

“Yuanzhe, listen to your sister. The affection between family members cannot be measured by these material things. As long as you have the heart, that is enough for your sister. But I really can’t accept this gift. Listen to your sister and return it.”

When she said that, Qiao Yuanzhe disagreed and angrily shook off Qiao Luo's hand.

"Sis, what do you mean? Do you think I stole this necklace?"

"That's not what I meant, sister." Qiao Luo was about to explain when Qiao Yuanzhe interrupted her, "Sister, I don't care what you think, I've already given you this necklace. If you don't want it, just throw it away."

As he spoke, Qiao Yuanzhe got up and walked outside.

Upon seeing this, Qiao Luo quickly picked up the jewelry box and chased after them.

However, by the time she chased after him, Qiao Yuanzhe had already gone far away, and she could only stand there and stare at his departing figure.

I feel an indescribable sadness in my heart.

That evening, Qiao Luo returned home. Lu Tingnian noticed that she looked preoccupied and asked, puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Qiao Luo looked at Lu Tingnian, wondering if she had done something wrong today.

In this family, as long as Qiao Yuanzhe treats her like family, he was so happy to give her a gift today, yet she is so suspicious of him.

She's now filled with deep regret.

Thinking this, Qiao Luo's eyes welled up with tears.

"Lu Tingnian, I think I did something wrong."
