Chapter 76
The second day of the broadcast of “Linear Sniper” was Christmas Eve. Most of the businesses posted Santa Claus and Christmas trees on the doors and windows to set off the festive atmosphere. There were also cheerful “jinglebells” on the streets from time to time.
In the team, Qiao Yu all gave the exquisitely packaged No. 1 apple in the world as a gift, and each sent a red envelope to congratulate the happy holiday.
Luo Huilan missed her son whom she hadn’t seen for a long time, and called her early to ask her if she returned to Jiangcheng. Qiao Yu hesitated for a long time and still couldn’t come back under the excuse of filming in other places.
WeChat is filled with all kinds of blessings. Most of her circle of friends are from the entertainment industry. There are few group messages, and most of them are blessings sent individually with nicknames. Of course, this is also related to her current coffee position.
The latest news comes from Ji Weitong. He was stuck with the news distributed at 12:24, very ceremonial.
Ji Weitong: [Brother! Merry Christmas! ! 】
[I bought you a Christmas gift and asked my assistant to deliver it to the hotel for you, remember to open the door for him! 】
Are straight men so attentive these days? She casually went back to the past [Merry Christmas. ] Then I started thinking about whether to go out and buy him a Christmas present before his assistant came.
But she seldom gave gifts to male friends, and she couldn’t think of what to give for a while, and Ji Weitong was the kind of person who lacked everything, she thought about it and simply sent a message to the past [What gift do you want? ? 】
Ji Weitong didn’t reply, thinking that she was busy, so she put on her coat and got ready to go out to pick a gift for him. But before closing the door, he was worried that Ji Weitong’s assistant would not be able to find anyone, so he sent a message asking Ji Weitong to tell the assistant to put the gift at the front desk.
I took a taxi to the largest shopping mall in Jiangcheng. There was a two- or three-story Christmas tree on the square, which was covered with lanterns and decorations. It’s a pity that before night, the lights are all lit up, and the whole Christmas tree is sparkling.
She picked up her mobile phone and took a picture, thinking about it for a long time, she hadn’t posted it on the Moments, so she used this Christmas tree to match the picture, and posted “Merry Christmas”.
Sister Hong quickly replied: Is it the tree in Qiyi Square?
Qiao Yuben had put the mobile phone back in the bag, and when he heard the message beep, he took it out again, and replied to her as he walked: Well. But when I came, the lights were not on, which was a pity.
Sister Hong seemed to be looking at her phone all the time, and quickly replied to her: I’ll go again at night, just be careful.
She refused: too many people at night.
Such a big Christmas tree must be placed here for activities. Maybe it is to trick young men and women into meeting here to count down the Christmas tree together. It’s fine during the day, but the traffic is bigger at night, and the probability of being discovered is higher. If you are not careful, it may cause a stampede accident, and you will have to be on the front page of social news the next day.
The mall is very big, Qiao Yu raised his mask and decided to start shopping from the first floor. The cooperation of the previous fashion brand was negotiated, and the other party sent a lot of clothes, but she still prefers to buy her own clothes.
The clerk of the luxury store is really sharp-eyed, and Qiao Yu was recognized as soon as she walked into her store. But fortunately, the clerk is very professional, and his face is completely calm, and he leads Qiao Yu to see the new products of the season with a smile.
When her eyes glanced at a scarf on the counter, she stopped, and the clerk held it up to her with a wink, “This is also our new product this season. This one is made of cashmere wool, and it is also suitable for wearing now.”
What Qiao Yu liked was actually its color scheme, a very advanced dark red, which was very suitable for Christmas gifts.
Thinking of this, her thoughts suddenly diverged.
It is said that Santa Claus originally wore green clothes, but because Coca-Cola entered the market and engaged in promotions to buy Coca-Cola as gifts, children thought that the red-packaged Coca-Cola could satisfy their wishes, so the image of Santa Claus gradually became Coca-Cola. as in the ad.
If Coca-Cola hadn’t engaged in that promotion, the Christmas symbol would be green now, and the Christmas gift options would probably have green Christmas hats that are different from the traditional Chinese meaning.
Thinking of this, she looked at the clerk beside her, “Is there a green hat?”
The clerk’s sister was obviously puzzled, and repeated: “You mean the green hat, right?”
“Forget it, I’m just kidding.” She had a smile in her eyes, and she fluttered away from the stubble just now, “Is that scarf in other colors?”
The clerk looked at it and took out another one from the cabinet on the left. “There is also a navy blue, and the color is very beautiful.”
Qiao Yu nodded, “please wrap it up together.”
In her last life, her family was very ordinary, and it was common for her to wear the same pair of shoes for most of the year, so after she became financially independent, she wanted to make up for the shortcomings of her childhood. Now she is slowly earning a lot of money, her childhood wounds are gradually healing, and she seems to have lost her desire for material things.
Sister Hong is already in the process of buying a house, and she has no plans to renovate it for the time being, but Qiao Yu still wanted to buy some small items, so she went upstairs again. After walking two floors, I couldn’t find the living hall, but I saw four endorsement signs of Ji Weitong along the way.
Ji Weitong’s expressiveness and camera sense are very strong, and the commercials are very nice. She just stopped to take a look, but Yu Guang was attracted by two little girls who came out from a nearby mobile phone brand store carrying Ji Weitong and others.
The two girls were obviously very excited, and the girl in the plaid skirt was particularly happy: “Tongtong can watch me sleep tonight.”
Another girl retorted: “It’s agreed that one, three or four will be put in your house, and two, four and six will be put in my house, and it will be decided by guessing on the weekend. Why did I watch you sleep today?”
When Qiao Yu heard it, he suddenly laughed, and before the two girls had gone far, he took pictures of their backs and sent them to Ji Weitong.
QY: [Picture]
【You have been carried away. 】
Ji Weitong should be really busy over there, and she didn’t hear from him until she was on her way back to the hotel.
Ji Weitong: [! ! Why don’t you stop them? 】
【You just watched me get carried away like this? 】
QY: [The two girls are very cute, and they can be considered a good home. 】
Ji Weitong: […]
[I don’t care, you go grab it now. 】
Qiao Yu didn’t say that he had gone far, but replied with kindness: [How do you say? Go up and tell them: Ji Weitong wants you to put him down? 】
Ji Weitong on the other side of the screen also laughed and replied: [Yes, let’s go. 】
Qiao Yu stopped joking with him, and sent a message to ask if his assistant had arrived. If his assistant hasn’t come yet, he can bring the scarf back to him at that time.
Ji Weitong actually didn’t know, so he cut out and called his assistant to confirm that the other party didn’t have time to send it over before returning the message to Qiao Yu.
The assistant brother was also anxious after being urged by his own artist, and sent Ji Weitong’s gift not long after Qiao Yu returned to the hotel.
The gift is packed in a small box with red and white stripes, which is heavy. Qiao Yu took it apart and saw that it was a red apple with a bow and various Supreme co-branded products. The red color of a water is full to the brim, very festive.
Ji Weitong likes Supreme, she can probably guess, after all, there is a Supreme skateboard hanging on the wall of his restaurant, and Qiao Yu also saw him wearing this brand of sweater during the dinner after the show.
But she also knows that Supreme is difficult to buy. The price is not a problem. The point is that it is difficult to grab. Many times it can be said that there is no market for it. It is really hard for him to give himself such a big box.
Compared to Ji Weitong’s generosity, she suddenly felt that she gave too little, and at first she thought of giving him a green hat because she thought it was fun, but now she feels a little guilty after reflecting on it. So for the rest of the afternoon, she simply went back to the mall.
Supreme’s joint name cannot be bought, but it is still possible to follow Ji Weitong and buy a box of red gifts. The Christmas Eve gift has been sent, and I will give him a Christmas gift tomorrow.
When I came back, it was a bit noisy outside the hotel. She glanced from a distance, the construction team was fixing a Christmas tree. It’s a really beautiful Christmas tree, and it’s even taller than what you see outside the mall.
It is about the activities that the hotel engages in for the guests. She originally thought that she would not see the Christmas tree tonight, but she did not expect the hotel to be so considerate. Sure enough, two thousand eight a night makes sense.
But it stands to reason that the Christmas tree should be lit when it is late, but it was almost twelve o’clock in the morning and the lights did not come on. Qiao Yuben was looking forward to it, but seeing that the Christmas tree did not light up from dusk to night, thinking that something might have gone wrong, he just had to wash up and sleep.
It wasn’t until she came out of the bathroom that she saw the phone vibrating on the bedside table.
Caller ID – Qiubai brother.
She underlined the answer and sat down on the edge of the bed, “Hello? Brother Qiubai?”
Fang Qiubai’s voice was very soft, with an imperceptible tenderness: “Hey, Xiaoyu. Are you asleep?”
She picked up the cup and took a sip of water, and asked back in doubt, “Not yet, is there something wrong with Qiubai?”
Fang Qiubai didn’t answer, but continued: “You go to the window now.”
Qiao Yu responded and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window according to his words. Her room was facing the square in front of the hotel, and the Christmas tree was silent under her line of sight, as if waiting for something.
“Three, two, one…”
The tens of thousands of light bulbs wrapped around the branches of the Christmas tree all lit up at the moment when his voice fell, and the entire Christmas tree was dusted with gold dust, like the magic that the fairy godmother cast on Cinderella’s dance dress.
All of Qiao Yu’s attention was attracted by the bright scene in front of him. On the phone, Fang Qiubai’s voice was soft and soft—
“Small encounter.”
“Merry Christmas.”
He is good enough, he can do too little for him, but he still wants to move everything he likes to him.
On the computer screen, the 17-meter-high Christmas tree shone because of the light of tens of thousands of light bulbs, and the exclamations and admirations of onlookers continued to reach the computer side.
He thought he might like it too.
The choice is coming, whose Christmas gift do you pick more?
