Revelation of the Way of Heaven

Chapter 170 Birthday Gift

Qin Xiaochuan found that time flew by after he started university. When he was in high school, he felt that every day was torture and the three years felt like a lifetime. But after starting university, he had almost half the classes, and time flew by in the relaxed and comfortable life. Before he knew it, since joining the Demon Hunters, Qin Xiaochuan and Guo Shiyi had carried out a few simple missions together, and half of the second semester of their freshman year was already over.

That day, Qin Xiaochuan was engrossed in browsing an online shopping website when his roommate Gao Xiang suddenly leaned over, looked at Qin Xiaochuan's screen, and said meaningfully, "Oh, choosing a gift? Which girl are you planning to give this to?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Qichao immediately became interested and leaned closer, asking, "Is it Guo Shiyi, the one who participated in the competition with you last time?"

"You guys have all noticed this. Can you help me think of a good gift?" Qin Xiaochuan asked, scrolling through the webpage.

"Sure, I'll give you my advice, it can't be wrong." Gao Xiang looked like a Casanova, and asked, "First, tell me what the purpose of giving this gift is. Is it to confess your feelings?"

"How could that be? It's a birthday present. Her birthday is coming up soon," Qin Xiaochuan quickly explained.

"I'm telling you, bro, such a great girl, why aren't you making a move? What are you waiting for?" Gao Xiang asked, looking puzzled.

"You're overthinking it. Our relationship hasn't progressed to that point yet, and the timing isn't right," Qin Xiaochuan said dismissively.

Gao Xiang rolled his eyes at him and said, "It'll be too late by the time the time is right. Bro, you have no idea how popular that girl is at our school, do you?"

How popular is it?

"She was already the most beautiful girl in the medical department. Ever since you won that competition, she's been voted the most beautiful girl in the school by many people. Just think, even you have won the favor of a lot of girls. That top beauty has received countless love letters. Think about those senior students who have been single for many years, and those junior students who are full of enthusiasm. There are countless hungry wolves staring at her. And you still want to wait for the right time?" Gao Xiang stared at him with exaggerated expression.

"What do you mean I've won the favor of a bunch of girls? You make it sound like I'm unwanted." Qin Xiaochuan said indignantly, "Don't imagine every guy is like you. You've turned a perfectly good ivory pyramid into a den of wolves."

"Exactly, I'm not that kind of person. What's so great about girls? Isn't it better to play games with your buddies?" Ma Qichao added from the side.

"Stop trying to instill your abnormal sexual orientation ideas. I'm talking about serious matters, this concerns Xiao Chuan's lifelong happiness," Gao Xiang quickly stopped Ma Qichao. (Currently reading Chapter 171, "Birthday Gift," completely engrossed.)

"It's not that serious," Qin Xiaochuan said with a wry smile.

"It's really serious." Gao Xiang looked at him with a serious expression and said, "Even the ancients said, 'Do not waste your youthful days, but cherish them. Pluck the flower while it blooms, lest you break the branch in vain.' You know, young girls these days are like blank sheets of paper, imagining everything to be wonderful, and they are easily satisfied. If a rich and handsome guy were to fawn over your Guo Shiyi every day, she might be moved and agree to be with him. Then it would be too late for you to regret it."

"What do you mean, my Guo Shiyi? It's not even close to happening yet, don't talk nonsense." Qin Xiaochuan quickly corrected him. Although he didn't take it seriously on the surface, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy inside.

"Precisely because it's not yet, you should take this opportunity to confess your feelings to her."

Qin Xiaochuan remained silent, casually scrolling through the dazzling array of products on the computer screen. After a long while, he finally asked, "So, what kind of gift do you think would be best for me?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Xiang couldn't help but reveal a smug look of triumph. He stroked his chin, pondered, and said, "Let me think... If it's your birthday soon, it should be a Libra. The most prominent characteristic of Libra women is their elegance and poise. They love exquisite and beautiful things, so the gift should also be exquisite and beautiful. If you ask me, the best choice would be jewelry or something similar. It's exquisite and beautiful, and you can wear it every day, so you'll think of me every day."

"You know so much."

"That's a must. Don't you know who I am? The savior of countless single girls, the spiritual mentor who answers all kinds of emotional problems, that's me." Gao Xiang pointed to himself with a thumbs up.

"Impressive, impressive, I admire you." Qin Xiaochuan said, cupping his hands in a gesture of respect.

Gao Xiang smiled smugly and said mysteriously, "Since we're brothers, how about I help you plan a grand confession ceremony? Let me tell you, with my connections, I can mobilize all the guys in our major to cheer you on. I guarantee it will be a resounding success."

"No, no, no, let's not make such a big deal out of it. What if they don't agree and we can't even be friends anymore?" Qin Xiaochuan quickly waved his hand.

"It's better to keep a low profile; that way, we can attack or retreat as needed." Gao Xiang pondered, stroking his chin. "Once you've chosen a gift, I'll give you some advice."

"Okay." Qin Xiaochuan agreed verbally, but his heart was in turmoil. He had browsed through no less than a hundred pieces of jewelry. The ones that were too expensive were unaffordable for him, and Guo Shiyi might not accept them if they were too expensive. But the ones that were too cheap felt like they wouldn't express his feelings. He thought and thought but couldn't make up his mind. Then he remembered that Guo Shiyi had given him a dagger before, so he decided to try his luck at the All-Purpose Store by himself. Maybe he could find a suitable gift.
