Chapter 390: 180 Opportunities (Second Update)

Xingxing’s parents were not only loving but also hadn’t fought for over a decade. They were also very indulgent towards Xingxing, never blaming her for her poor grades. The Molly Dolls were expensive, but Tao Xingxing had a whole display cabinet filled with them.

Just with the first point, everyone’s parents fell short, either constantly fighting or divorced and single. The damage caused by their family backgrounds would take a lifetime to heal. These inexpressible growing pains were only truly understood by themselves, so everyone was particularly envious of Tao Xingxing, who grew up in a loving and open-minded environment.

Tao Qian gave Tao Xingxing an amber star bracelet, and Tao Xingxing happily said, “It’s so beautiful, I love it, Dad!”

Ming Jing smiled and said, “In our Hua Country’s folklore, amber is transformed from the tiger’s soul and symbolizes the vast grace of parents. It can soothe the five internal organs, stabilize the soul and ward off evil spirits. Xingxing, your father loves you deeply.”

Tao Xingxing blinked, “Is there such a legend?”

She walked over and hugged Tao Qian, sniffing, “Dad, I will always love you.”

Tao Qian gently patted her back, just as he did when she was a baby. Every time she cried, he would comfort her like this.

“Dad will always love you too.”

Next was Ming Jing’s gift. When they opened the wrapping bag and saw the logo on the box, everyone was amazed, not just Tao Xingxing.

“Luoshan Shop?”

Tao Xingxing couldn’t wait to open the box, revealing the flowing cloud brocade inside, which was breathtakingly gorgeous under the light.

“Wow, it’s Phoenix Seeks Phoenix! Ming Jing, I love you so much!”

Tao Xingxing excitedly pounced on Ming Jing and kissed her side face, leaving Ming Jing with a wry smile.

Wu Jiaqi was surprised and asked a girl, “What is Phoenix Seeks Phoenix?”

The girl explained, “Luoshan Shop is a high-end Hanfu customizing organization, and their Hanfu are all hand-made and very, very expensive. This Phoenix Seeks Phoenix set is designed by the famous Hanfu designer Edward Feng, who is also the treasure of the shop. It was featured as the finale of a traditional show, made entirely by hand from silkworm to weaving, with the highest standards of Hua Country’s silk craftsmanship. Wearing it, you will look absolutely stunning. It’s everyone’s favorite Hanfu and not to mention the beautiful meaning ‘Phoenix, Phoenix, return home, soar across the four seas to find its Phoenix…’. ”

“Ming Jing is so generous, gifting the Phoenix Seeks Phoenix at once. How wonderful it would be if I had such a caring and wealthy best friend,” the girl said enviously.

Wu Jiaqi sighed, “I really can’t keep up with the times. I didn’t know that kids nowadays like to play with these.”

The most important thing in giving gifts is the thought, not the expense. Seeing Xingxing so happy showed how much she loved it.

Ming Jing was very thoughtful.

This set of Hanfu included exquisitely crafted shoes and headdress so beautiful that Tao Xingxing couldn’t put it down.

“Ming Jing, I never told you I liked Hanfu before. How did you know?” Tao Xingxing remembered that she had never mentioned it in front of Ming Jing.

Ming Jing smiled, “I saw a set of Hanfu in your room.”

“So, you deduced that I like Hanfu?”

Ming Jing nodded. It was easy to know with careful observation.

Tao Xingxing patted Ming Jing’s shoulder, “From now on, we are best friends for life.”

After Ming Jing’s generous gift, everyone else’s gifts were somewhat overshadowed. But Tao Xingxing wasn’t the type of person to despise poorer gifts. Even if she received a cup worth just over ten dollars, she would be happy to say she liked it.

The last gift was a crystal ball with snow falling inside. A little girl sat on a swing in front of a small house in the crystal ball, and a small sign beside her was covered by a snowflake, making it impossible to read the English words.

Tao Xingxing loved it at first sight and looked at Yan Chen, who stood at the back of the crowd, sharing a knowing smile with him.

She was born in the Southern Region and had never seen snow before.

He had always remembered.

The laughter from the balcony echoed in the distance, and the hallway was pitch-black. A wraith-like shadow drifted silently through the darkness.

Yan Chen’s phone rang, and he glanced at Tao Xingxing, who was smiling brightly in the crowd, before walking out with the phone.

“Mom… I’m attending a classmate’s birthday party. Yes, I’ll go home later. Alright, you should rest early.”
