Chapter 324: Chapter 324: The Hot Potato Pennant
While Nina Quinn was busily planning the grand revelation of July Quinn’s background, July just received a call from Ollie for five billion, and without giving Ollie a penny for service or hush money, she was having a candlelight dinner with Kyle Keaton.
The steak at this dinner was personally cooked by Kyle Keaton.
The wine was personally decanted by Kyle Keaton.
The candlelight for the candlelight dinner was also personally lit by Kyle Keaton.
Even the black halter-neck fishtail dress that July Quinn was wearing was personally chosen by Kyle Keaton.
If he could personally help July wear it, that would be even more perfect.
But unfortunately, July didn’t give him that chance.
However, he was confident that after tonight’s dinner, and after handing over the gift he prepared long ago, July would voluntarily give him the chance to help her out of that dress.
"Today was quite a surprise."
After finishing dinner, July sipped her wine glass, her enchanting face with a high-arched lip corner added a tinge of allure to this tempting night.
"The bigger surprise is yet to come," Kyle smirked.
"What is it?"
Without responding, Kyle stood up and took a gift box from the cabinet on the side.
The packaging looked quite exquisite, and the box emitted a subtle fragrance.
"Open it and see."
With Kyle’s words, July impatiently opened it after receiving it.
The gift box contained something that looked like a scroll, and July initially thought it was a gift like a painting or calligraphy.
But upon unfolding and seeing the golden words "Best Wife," she realized it was a banner, immediately feeling as if a row of crows was flying overhead, leaving countless black spots.
The originally perfect smile cracked at this moment.
"How did you come up with the idea of giving a banner?"
Receiving a banner for no reason, July felt it was incredibly awkward.
Trying hard to resist the impulse to beat someone with the banner, she attempted to find him an excuse.
Kyle hadn’t dated before, maybe he got tricked?
Yes, he must have been tricked; otherwise, how could he send such a stupid thing as a banner?
Yet, in the flickering candlelight, Kyle didn’t notice much change in July’s expression, thinking she might have been touched by this banner.
Although, he didn’t understand why this stupid thing could move people so much.
Well, dating isn’t just about eating and watching movies; you also need to give little gifts that move the girl.
This he had learned after specially consulting the playboy, Miles Jacobs.
As for sending the banner, it was the first item that popped up when he searched "best gift for wife" on Taobao, with daily sales of 14k and over a million positive reviews.
Kyle had specially gone through the reviews, where everyone said how happy their wife was to receive this banner, while some said their wife hugged and kissed them passionately on the spot.
Thus, Kyle’s first-ever online purchase was born.
But he thought that if he explained the process, it would diminish July’s affection for him, so he said, "It came naturally."
July: "..."
Nothing to say, might as well do a split for him.
"What’s wrong?"
Even if the candlelight was not clear, Kyle noticed July’s lips twitch noticeably a few times.
"Nothing, just have fun by yourself."
July shoved the banner back to Kyle and turned to walk towards the bedroom.
Kyle sensed something was wrong and hurriedly grabbed July’s hand.
"You don’t like the banner? Then what do you like?"
But July directly shook off his hand: "I like making you wear a green hat."
If she had to spell out what she liked, why doesn’t she just date herself?
Kyle: "..."
So, gifting a banner means earning a green hat?
Though lacking emotional intelligence, his IQ is high.
At this moment, Kyle naturally realized that not only was the gift not good, but it also backfired.
But at this point, July didn’t even glance at him, just leaving him with one line.
"For the next month, have a good romantic relationship with this banner in the living room, I won’t be joining."
After that, July went straight to the bedroom and locked the door from the inside.
Kyle: "..."
So, not only did the gift fail to move his wife to jump into his bed, but he also had to sleep on the sofa for a month?
Annoyed, Kyle took out his phone, intending to have Taobao bought over by tomorrow, and specifically told them to pay special attention to the banner store that did him such a disservice...
