Ye Jinmeng returned to the dormitory and couldn't wait to open this mysterious gift to see exactly what it was. After all, from a young age Shi Shuning had given her many things, basically food and some plush toys. The pink pig she hugged to sleep in her dormitory was a gift from Shi Shuning. This time Shi Shuning gave her a gift mysteriously, she had to be curious!

Xu Wanwan had just finished her math homework and was tidying up the books for tomorrow's classes when she saw Ye Jinmeng hurriedly walk in from outside.

"Jinmeng, you're back. What's the hurry?"

Ye Jinmeng threw her school bag on the bed and placed the gift box on her desk. She plopped down on the chair, opened the mineral water that was always on her desk, and gulped down half the bottle.

After drinking her fill, she let out a satisfied burp before slowly opening her mouth, "Ah, nothing much. Shi Shuning gave me a gift, mysteriously. I'm too curious and want to see what it is quickly."

Xu Wanwan also saw the gift box Ye Jinmeng had just placed on the desk. It was pink and cute. She understood what was going on and teased, "Oh, looks like someone's spring is coming."

Ye Jinmeng blushed at the joke, "Oh Wanwan, don't talk nonsense. It's not here yet."

"Then it will be here in the future!"

"In the future... we'll talk about future things in the future. Anyway it's not here yet."

Ah, now when she thought back to the scene she imagined on the playground, she was too embarrassed to see anyone. Fortunately, Shi Shuning didn't have telepathy!

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. Hurry and see what the gift is. I'm quite curious too." Xu Wanwan pulled over a chair and sat next to Ye Jinmeng, also full of curiosity.

"Okay." Ye Jinmeng untied the bow. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the n0vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

As the wrapping paper opened, products with strong Chinese style entered her eyes. The words "Palace Joint Name National Style Edition" were particularly conspicuous.

Ye Jinmeng was familiar with this packaging. After all, her Ye family also had a cosmetics industry, and the palace joint name cosmetics were her family's new products that hadn't been mass-produced yet. Ye Jinchen had brought her two boxes to try before. So she had naturally seen them before.

But this packaging was also different from her family's. Could it be another brand?

Ye Jinmeng wrinkled her little eyebrows, but didn't think too much about it. She still opened the box to see the lipstick inside.

Xu Wanwan was simply amazed by the artwork on the lipstick tube, plum blossom, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum, dragon, phoenix, all drawn vividly. This made Xu Wanwan curious about which brand's cosmetics could be so attentive.

"Jinmeng, the packaging is really good looking. Schoolmate Shi is thoughtful." Xu Wanwan couldn't help but exclaim.

Ye Jinmeng was also amazed. The lipstick tubes of her family were all painted with some palace buildings. She didn't expect this brand to have some ideas.

Ye Jinmeng casually picked up a lipstick, twisted it open, it was the everlasting bright red, with a faint chocolate fragrance.

She couldn't wait to pick up the mirror on the table and started trying the color on her lips.

"Hmm? Why doesn't it show color?" Ye Jinmeng smeared her lips with the lipstick a few times, but no color came out at all. This shouldn't happen. The texture was also strange, like crayon.

Xu Wanwan was puzzled too. She picked up the box to see which brand it was.

At this time, the WeChat notification sounded. Ye Jinmeng picked up her phone, and it was actually a video call from Shi Shuning.

"Little Chubby Jinmeng, how's the gift, do you like it?" As soon as Ye Jinmeng tapped the answer button, Shi Shuning's voice came over.

Looking at Shi Shuning on the phone, Ye Jinmeng guessed he had just returned to the dormitory, and was still slightly panting.

"Well, I like it, but why doesn't this lipstick show color? I smeared it on my mouth for a long time, and there was no color at all."

"Huh? No color?"

"Yeah, let me show you." She then placed the phone on a nearby phone stand, and demonstrated in front of the camera for Shi Shuning, taking the lipstick in her hand and smearing it on the back of her hand, still no color at all.

Shi Shuning was also puzzled, "Then check if the others are like this too. If they are all like this, then there is a problem with this product!"

Hearing this, Ye Jinmeng was about to take the box from Xu Wanwan, but Xu Wanwan's expression was a bit strange. She hesitated and said, "Jinmeng, no need to try. "

"Hmm? Why?" Ye Jinmeng didn't understand.

Xu Wanwan held back her laugh and pointed to the text on the back of the box, "Read the product description first. This is not lipstick, it's chocolate in the shape of lipsticks."

Chocolate? Ye Jinmeng was stunned for a moment, then looked at the product description on the packaging. The first line that caught her eye was "Palace Joint Name National Style Chocolate Lipstick Edition".

Xu Wanwan had been holding back her laugh. She just wanted to see Ye Jinmeng's reaction.

Unexpectedly, Ye Jinmeng was not angry or disappointed at all. On the contrary, her eyes were brighter. Xu Wanwan was simply at a loss.

Oh right, how could she have forgotten that the Ye Jinmeng in front of her was a little foodie. Her eyes probably only saw the word chocolate now.

On the video, Shi Shuning naturally also heard what Xu Wanwan had just said. What he bought was not chocolate flavored lipstick, but chocolate in the shape of lipsticks!

Shi Shuning was naturally embarrassed. Giving gifts had backfired. But looking at Ye Jinmeng's expression, he was still relieved now, luckily it was chocolate.

Seeing it was chocolate, Ye Jinmeng was naturally happier than seeing lipstick. She couldn't wait to twist the whole thing out and stuffed it into her mouth, then...

"Ugh!" Ye Jinmeng was disgusted. She immediately grabbed some tissue and spit out the chocolate in her mouth.

And Xu Wanwan could no longer hold back her laugh. She laughed loudly bending over.

Ye Jinmeng almost cried. This was the most disgusting chocolate she had ever eaten. It was like frozen spoiled noodles in her mouth.

"Ugh!" Ye Jinmeng couldn't help but retch again.

Xu Wanwan kept laughing while patting Ye Jinmeng on the back. Ye Jinmeng almost threw up her stomach.

While Shi Shuning on the video didn't dare to make a sound or move.

He thought the chocolate could still salvage the situation. Now it looked like this was the biggest mistake!

Xu Wanwan handed Ye Jinmeng some water. After drinking a few sips, Ye Jinmeng finally recovered.

There were still tears in Ye Jinmeng's eyes. Looking at Shi Shuning like a quail on the video, and thinking of her own embarrassment just now, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Brother Shuning, where did you buy this?"

Shi Shuning saw Ye Jinmeng's condition was fine, and he was relieved too. Somewhat awkwardly, he said, "It was a store called 'Gifts for Friends' in Yunhai Shopping Mall. I was probably too rushed at the time and didn't pay much attention..."

Shi Shuning's voice was obviously weaker.

"That is, I just looked at the payment voucher, the price was 29.8 yuan..."

Heavens! This was probably the cheapest thing he had ever bought as a gift for Little Chubby Jinmeng. He would never rush when buying gifts again in the future.

Ye Jinmeng and Xu Wanwan didn't know Shi Shuning's inner turmoil. The two looked at each other instantly upon hearing this price, and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Haha, Brother Shuning, really...you're so cute! Hiccup!" Ye Jinmeng almost laughed until she couldn't breathe, and started hiccupping.

Although Xu Wanwan didn't have the standing to judge anything, she still laughed until her stomach hurt. But her hand still reached over to pat Ye Jinmeng's back to help her breathe.

Shi Shuning was so embarrassed today that he felt like he had lost face for the rest of his life. But after all, it was his own fault, so of course he didn't dare say anything. Seeing that Ye Jinmeng was not angry with him, let her laugh if she wanted to laugh!

Next time when picking a gift, he would definitely do his homework properly. He couldn't make this kind of joke again.
