<h4>Chapter 117 Gift for the Mid-Autumn Festival</h4>


    Although Xia Xiaoluo did not know how to appreciate the antique paintings and calligraphy, when she knew the word “antique”, she knew it was valuable.


    “Darling, even if you sell me, I still can’t afford it!” Xia Xiaoluo drooped her head and waited for Ling Tianyi’s final judgement.


    Ling Tianyi did not care about those antiques and their value. He didn’t have much interest in collections. But as a rich man, he had to collect some, which could represent his identity, so he bought some and disyed them at home.


    Ling Tianyi looked at Xia Xiaoluo’s pitiful look, her eyes were full of fear and worry, which made him feel a little distressed. Ling Tianyi thought that he was angry today. He has warned himself for many times that he must treat her gently, so that she could fall in love with him rather than being afraid of him. However, Xia Xiaoluo always caused trouble, which made it difficult to control his emotions.


    Feeling that Ling Tianyi was silent for a long time, Xia Xiaoluo secretly nced at Ling Tianyi to see his expression, in order to judge how angry he was.


    They looked at each other at the same time. Xia Xiaoluo was so frightened that she retracted her secret eyesight quickly, staring at the floor continuously.


    Ling Tianyi’s heart was distressed by Xia Xiaoluo’s behavior. Why was she so afraid of him? Just some antiques. He didn’t mind at all. If he wanted, he could go to the auction and buy some to disy at home. Anyway, he had no interest in collection, just following the trend.


    Why? Why was she so afraid of him?


    Ling Tianyi took a deep breath. He was going crazy, but he suppressed his anger. He sat down on the sofa with Xia Xiaoluo in his arms. “Don’t worry, those antiques are not expensive. You can pay for them. Do you want to pay for it?”


    Xia Xiaoluo looked at Ling Tianyi and wondered what he was thinking about.


    “Sell yourself to me to pay for the antiques. So for the whole life, you are mine, and you can’t leave me.” Ling Tianyi said. He liked his stupid little wife, who always caused trouble. But he was not sure if she loved him, so he could only tie her up with money.


    When Xia Xiaoluo heard it, she felt sad and burst into tears suddenly.


    It was miserable! Xia Xiaoluo’s crying made Ling Tianyi hurt. Was it so sad to stay with him? He tried his best to show his tenderness. Although sometimes he could not help being angry, he cared about her so much. He wanted to be with her all his life. But why did she cry when she heard this?


    After all, Ling Tianyi couldn’t bear to see Xia Xiaoluo crying. He was not afraid of anything, excepting his little wife’s tears. Once she cried, he did not know what to do.


    “Well, darling, don’t cry. I am just kidding.” Ling Tianyi held Xia Xiaoluo tightly, patting her on the back. He began to calm her down, trying to make her happy.


    “The bottles and cans you broke today are not antiques. They are Jingdezhen porcin that I bought on business trips. They’re not cheap, but not as valuable as the antiques. I bought them at most 10,000 yuan.” Ling Tianyi told a beautiful lie.


    Although each of those antiques was valuable, totally worth about one billion yuan. But he did not want her to have mental burden.


    “Really?” Xia Xiaoluo asked when she was wiping her tears.


    “Of course. Because you are so naughty today, you have interrupted my video conference twice. I made you frightened deliberately. Don’t cry. Look at you. You are crying like a kitten.” Ling Tianyi took a tissue to wipe Xia Xiaoluo’s tears.


    “Darling, you are so bad! You scared me to death. I knew I made a mistake today, but you can’t fool me like that!” Xia Xiaoluo pouted her lips.


    “Well, It’s over. You interrupted the video conference, but I arranged everything well. Now, forget it. The take-out is arriving, we’ll have a good meal.” Ling Tianyiughed, with a pleasant expression on his face, but his heart was filled with bitterness and astringency. What Xia Xiaoluo broke today were not only the antiques on the shelf, but also his fragile and cold heart.


    After eating, Ling Tianyi continued to send emails by hisptop in the study. Xia Xiaoluo knew that she made a mistake today, and she made Ling Tianyi unhappy. He was so kind that he did not punish her. Xia Xiaoluo felt grateful to him. She thought that she could prepare him a gift for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Now she wanted to apologize to him sincerely and send him best wishes.


    Xia Xiaoluo dared not to go out again, just walked around in the bedroom.


    “Ha-ha, yes! I have an idea!” Xia Xiaoluo looked very happy. She took the ribbons bought with Dou Ya from the second drawer of the dressing table. She nned to knit a bracelet for Ling Tianyi as a gift.


    Although Xia Xiaoluo was not good at studying, she was outstanding in other aspects. It only took her an hour or so to weave a simple bracelet.


    Xia Xiaoluo intended to give it to Ling Tianyi tomorrow morning, but she was eager to send it to him right away.


    Xia Xiaoluo was wandering in front of the study, peeping to see whether Ling Tianyi was busy, or he might be angry again.


    Although Xia Xiaoluo kept quiet, Ling Tianyi still knew that his restless little wife was outside. He knew that she had something to tell him.


    Ling Tianyi pretended not to know that deliberately. He wanted to let her wait a little longer. Later he stopped joking on her. He wanted to know what Xia Xiaoluo was going to do. Finally he said to her, “What are you doing there? Come in if you like!”


    “Hah!” Xia Xiaoluo giggled. With Ling Tianyi’s permission, she went into the study immediately.


    “What’s the matter? I see you wandering outside for a while.” Ling Tianyi asked calmly.


    Xia Xiaoluo hid her hands behind and said with a smile, “Actually, there is nothing serious! I knew I made a mistake and made you angry, darling.”


    “You knew that!” Heughed. She really made him annoyed. Not because she caused trouble, but when he said that he wanted her to stay with him the whole life, she burst into tears instinctively.


    “So in order to make up for my mistake and make you happy, and for the Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow, I prepare a small gift for you.” Xia Xiaoluo presented the delicate bracelet with both her hands.


    “Darling, I made it for you.” She said with a smile.


    Ling Tianyi picked up the bracelet and felt somethingplicated. He was very happy when the little girl sent him a gift. But he did not know whether she really hoped to do it, or she was just afraid of being punished. He was somewhat entangled.


    “It’s red!” Actually Ling wore formal dark suits. It must be really strange for him to wear a red bracelet.


    Xia Xiaoluo felt a little upset for that. She should have thought that Ling Tianyi would not like this style. How could he like a red bracelet? She knew that he did not like her present.


    “Darling, I only have red ribbons. Otherwise, you give it back to me, I’ll buy the ribbons in different colors for you another day.” She wanted to bring it back.


    Ling Tianyi withdrew his hands and said, “It’s okay, I will wear it.”


    “Well.” Ling Tianyi didn’t know how to wear a bracelet.


    “Let me help you!” Xia Xiaoluo stretched the bracelet open, then let Ling Tianyi put his hand in, and pulled the tassels on both ends of the bracelet. The red bracelet was perfectly matched on Ling Tianyi’s perfect wrist.


    “Not bad!” Ling Tianyi praised.


    “Of course, when I was in high school, I was the queen of weaving bracelets! Those girls all learned from me.” Xia Xiaoluo was very proud.


    “Please be modest!” Ling Tianyiughed. It was the nature of Xia Xiaoluo, which could never change. Nevertheless, he liked her character. He felt very happy when staying with her.


    “Is it a Mid-Autumn Festival gift or a gift for atonement?” Ling Tianyi joked, raising his wrist.


    “Both!” Xia Xiaoluo smiled.


    “You are clever!” Ling Tianyiughed. He was tired after reading the emails for a long time. He stood up and went to the bedroom hand in hand with her.


    Ling Tianyi took the moon cakes behind the sofa, which Xia Xiaoluo ate in her dream. Opening the package, he said to Xia Xiaoluo, “I have received your Mid-Autumn Festival gift, so I permit you to celebrate the festival in advance! You can eat a piece of moon cake now. I remember that you prefer the white chocte one, right?”


    Xia Xiaoluo was anxious. The white chocte moon cake had been eaten. Now there was a big potato in the box. If Ling Tianyi knew it, the effort she made would be in vain the next second.


    Xia Xiaoluo said hurriedly, “No, no! I saw it before!”


    “Ah? You like it very much, don’t you? Which one do you prefer?” Ling Tianyi studied the moon cakes contentiously. “It seems that the one with chocte sauce is good. I remember you like snacks with chocte.”


    “No, I don’t like it!” Xia Xiaoluo was so frightened that her forehead was sweating.


    “What’s the matter, darling?” Ling Tianyi saw that Xia Xiaoluo seemed to be scared again, so he frowned.
