247 Perfume
Qiao Yue attended school peacefully for a few days without incidents caused by Trand or AT.
When she returned home today, she found a pile of gift boxes on the table and Qiao Xin was already seated by the coffee table unwrapping gifts.
“What are these gift boxes?” Qiao Yue asked the butler who was standing by the side.
“These are the gifts the second young master sent back.”
Why had Qiao Jing sent gifts back already?
She thought that he would bring the gifts back with him after his business trip.
Qiao Ying found a gift with Qiao Yue’s name and handed it to Qiao Yue.
Qiao Yue smiled at her. Qiao Xin saw Qiao Yue and Qiao Ying’s closeness, her face filled with disdain.
She had just unwrapped her present. It was the latest make-up set from the most popular cosmetic brand in D-Country.
Every time Qiao Jing went on a business trip to D-Country, he would bring back the latest line for Qiao Xin and Qiao Ying.
Qiao Jing had actually couriered the gifts back this time. These were non-perishable cosmetics. She really didn’t know why her second brother was in such a hurry to send them back.
Qiao Yue also unwrapped her gift, which was a beautifully packaged bottle of perfume.
The perfume was also a brand from D-Country. It was not custom-made, but still very expensive.
The exquisitely sculpted bottle had an English label in italics.
She read the label. The perfume was named “Midnight Flight”; it was a woody scent perfume.
Qiao Yue had seen this brand before.
She was into perfumes. She had a shelf full of perfumes in her office at KA, all niche fragrances that she had collected over the years.
The bottle she was holding wasn’t a niche fragrance, but it was still quite rare. Although it had woody notes, it wasn’t made from ordinary sandalwood or cedar. It was made from round-leafed eucalyptus from Australia.
The round-leafed eucalyptus was the food of koalas. It was a plant with a distinct smell. When on trees, its leaves seemed to be coated in silvery powder.
It was a unique plant with a unique smell.
Qiao Yue sprayed some perfume on her wrist and sniffed it.
Qiao Xin pursed her lips. “It’s just perfume. Do you have to go that far? It’s not like it’s never been seen before.”
Qiao Ying instead smiled and said, “This perfume is uncommon. It doesn’t smell like the usual woody perfumes.”
Qiao Yue nodded and handed the perfume over for Qiao Ying to try.
Just as they were unwrapping the gifts, the butler came in with another cart of presents.
“These are also gifts chosen by the second young master. He said that the young masters and misses can choose what they like.”
Qiao Yu looked at the gifts and smiled. “Why did second brother give us gifts and even let us help ourselves this time?”
This gifts on this cart were really exaggerated. It had things that could be eaten, used and played. There were also many little things that would appeal to girls.
Actually, this was Sun Yi’s idea.
No matter what kind of girl she was, she wouldn’t reject a cart full of gifts.
Sun Yi had even specially picked out things that girls would like. There was a wide variety so Qiao Yue would definitely be able to find something that she liked.
When Qiao Xin and Qiao Ying saw that there were so many more gifts to choose from, they were wreathed in smiles. The two of them quickly put down their gifts and walked over to the cart.
They picked through the clothes, bags, accessories, and so on for a long time. Qiao Yu also chose a few handicrafts and some books.
Qiao Yue looked around casually and didn’t rush to choose like Qiao Xin and Qiao Ying. Instead, she waited for the two to finish.
She walked over and took a few casual glances. There were obviously many gifts for girls, which made her curious. Why did her second brother give them so many strange things to choose from?
After a while, Qiao Yue chose a box of jigsaw puzzles.
Among all the gifts, only this box of jigsaw puzzles attracted her. It contained puzzles made up of world-famous paintings, and it was said to challenge one’s intelligence.
As they were picking out their gifts, and the butler gave Qiao Jing a progress report.
When Qiao Jing heard that Qiao Yue had only chosen two gifts, he felt a little perplexed. He wanted to give Qiao Yue more gifts, but how did this end up benefitting Qiao Xin and Qiao Ying?
However, after thinking about it, Qiao Yue still liked the gift he chose, so his mood improved.
