"Could it be that Manager Jiang wishes to present a gift?" Ning Xuan's eyes lit up as he spoke joyfully.
After a moment of stunned silence, joy filled Jiang Donglin's eyes as well. He nodded hastily. "Yes, yes, yes!"
Ning Xuan immediately pressed his advantage. "I'm friends with your Palace Master. Does she have a gift for me too?"
"Absolutely! Absolutely!" Jiang Donglin nodded without a second thought, sighing with relief internally. This is great. It'll buy me even more time. After all, preparing one gift is completely different from preparing two. Besides, one of them is from the Palace Master herself. Can the Palace Master's gift be an ordinary one? It's perfectly reasonable for it to take a little longer, right? The more Jiang Donglin thought about it, the happier he became.
Little did he know, this was the beginning of his nightmare.
