The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me!

Chapter 241: Picking Up from the Airport (Extra 1)
He felt embarrassed to point it out explicitly, still puzzled, he asked, “What’s with this tie?”

Xia Siyu explained naturally, “It’s for Brother Qin and Little Tang. Brother Qin worries about me 365 days a year, every single day. And as for Little Tang, he’s always there when I need a car, picking me up and dropping me off, and he doesn’t rest even late into the night. I feel particularly embarrassed about it. Not just them, JingJing and the makeup artist have also been worrying over me. Especially Jingjing, who claims to always have nitroglycerin on hand. Whenever I cause trouble she pops one, so that’s why.”

After she finished speaking, she saw Bo Yan gripping those two tie boxes in his hand, seemingly squeezing them a little too hard, almost deforming them. She quickly snatched the boxes back from Bo Yan’s hand, “What are you doing? If you want one, just buy it yourself. It’s not expensive, there are plenty here.”

Bo Yan’s fingertips were faintly white, and his complexion also seemed a bit off. Fortunately, he was wearing a mask, hiding any visible reaction, and he just said coldly, “Since you say Brother Qin has been such a great help to you, are you really comfortable giving him just a few thousand yuan tie?”

Xia Siyu paused, then realized he was right, “Then what do you suggest I give?”

Bo Yan replied calmly, “Since it’s a gift for a man, a man’s calling card is a watch. Of course, you should buy him a watch.”

Xia Siyu certainly knew the value of a watch. Nowadays, the function of a watch to tell time had gradually been replaced by mobile phones.

For women, a watch is purely a piece of jewelry, its role equivalent to a diamond-studded bracelet.

For men, the poor tinker with cars, the rich with watches. Of course, when it comes to the rich playing with watches, at the very least you’re looking at a Rolex Submariner starting at eighty thousand yuan, with brands like Jaeger-LeCoultre and Patek Philippe beginning at three hundred thousand yuan. If it’s less than three hundred thousand, you’d hardly dare say you play with watches; that’s merely for timekeeping.

Bo Yan continued to entice, “‘Once and for all,’ you understand? It means, buy him a Rolex to honor the hard work and worry he’s put in for you. You’re not unwilling to spend that money on him, are you?”

“Of course not!” Xia Siyu immediately set down the tie in her hand and headed over to the watch section. She even inquired if there was a Rolex Submariner in stock, but unfortunately, there were none.

She settled for a mechanical watch with high aesthetic appeal, costing around a hundred thousand yuan, and paid with her card.

But a Rolex was so expensive, giving one to Little Tang as well would be too extravagant, and furthermore, Jingjing and the makeup artist’s gifts were only seven thousand yuan.

After some thought, she went next door to Longines and bought a beginner-level mechanical watch priced similarly to the cosmetics she got for Jingjing and the makeup artist. There was no good way to make up for the price difference, so she decided to invite them for a meal later to make it up to them.

After buying the watch, the Rolex saleswoman thoughtfully suggested, “How about I mail the box and receipt back for you, and you keep the watch with you. If it’s worn on the wrist without a box, it’s considered for personal use, and you can take one out without incurring duty. But if you have the box, they will charge tax.”

The saleswoman’s advice reminded her that she had bought two watches and three sets of cosmetics…

In the past, when going through customs, she had also bought more than allowed, but back then the whole team was together—assistants, agents, a whole bunch of people—she could simply get a few to share the load. If they really went over the limit, Jingjing could take care of the declaration.

Therefore, Xia Siyu turned her gaze towards Bo Yan who was beside her, “Bo…”

She barely got out a single word before Bo Yan cast a faint glance at her, then without missing a beat, turned around and said, “Not helping.”
