Sydney realized it. There was a trace of embarrassment on her face.
After all, Julien was aggrieved.
He had sent her many things, such as clothes, jewelry, flowers, and so on. He wanted to give her everything good.
When they first got back together, he almost gave her gifts every day.
Yet she felt pressured because she had been receiving his things, but she could not give him things of the same value in return.
After being refused by her many times, he finally stopped giving her gifts crazily.
Thus, she was greatly relieved at that time.
So she didn't know that Grandma had even said he was stingy.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know." Sydney lowered her head apologetically.
Julien rubbed the back of her head. "Well, I'm not blaming you. I know why you do not want to accept my gifts, but in fact, you take them too seriously. We are lovers, and later we will be married. We are the closest people to each other. Whatever I give you, you can just take it for granted because that represents my love for you. Every time you refuse, I feel that I have not done well enough, so you are not willing to accept my gifts."
"That's not true." Sydney shook her head. "I just..."
Julien cut her off, "I just can't help thinking that way sometimes. Yet I know very well the real reason that you refuse my gifts. It's just that I hope that you can be a little more relaxed in the future and accept at least some of them because I love you, okay?"
He looked at her expectantly.
Sydney pondered whether she had done something wrong by refusing all his gifts.
She thought of Julien's gloomy and disappointed face every time she refused his gifts.
Sydney felt sorry for him.
She tried to stand in his shoes. If she happily prepared the best gifts for Julien, but he directly rejected them without even looking at them, how would she feel in her heart?
In short, she would certainly not be delighted. Instead, she would feel that she was disliked or that her gifts were not good enough.
Anyway, she wouldn't feel good.
Thinking about this, Sydney looked at Julien again and understood her previous mistake.
She forced a smile at him and then nodded. "Okay, from now on, I won't refuse everything from you. No matter what you give me, I like them and will consider accepting them, but don't give me anything too expensive."
She couldn't afford to give him things of the same value.
"No problem." Julien listened to Sydney's words and answered with a slight smile.
In fact, he wanted to say that with his wealth, he didn't think his gifts for her were expensive.
After all, he had a lot of money.
But for her, they were indeed extravagant.
It seemed that in the future, he should pick gifts with moderate prices.
But when they got married, it would be fine.
By then, if he wanted to give her something, she couldn't refuse like this.
She refused his gifts because she thought they were just dating and that their relationship might end at any time. They were not a married couple, so she felt it was improper to accept his gifts.
When they got married, all the problems would be solved.
But marriage...
Julien's eyes flashed. Then his gaze fell meaningfully on Sydney.
