Jiang Yongli, who realized a bit late, quickly handed her purse to the shop assistant.

"No, I don’t want it. I don’t like it."

"Miss Jiang, this clutch is made of lambskin, so..."

"Oh, this mark can be removed. It will disappear in a mont. You see, it has already faded a lot. I’ll take this dress; let’s go, pay with the card now."

"But Miss Jiang, the mark is too deep, I’m afraid it may be difficult to remove completely... Maybe I could offer you a discount? How does that sound?"

"You have professional care products here, right? It should definitely work. It’s not a scratch."

"We do, but..."

The shop assistant looked a bit troubled as he gazed at Jiang Yongli, guessing she might not want to buy. After pausing for a few seconds, he turned his head towards the shoe and hat area, signaling the assistant manager to co over and help coordinate.

Eventually, Jiang Yongli reluctantly bought the purse and the dress she liked.

...

On the other side, in the n’s luxury store.

Leng Lingxiao and Tang Xiaowan walked hand in hand, leisurely.

The decor here was understated yet grand, with each item ticulously crafted by renowned designers, brimming with personality and taste.

"Okay, Tangtang, we’ve taken a round; start choosing."

"Why, you don’t plan to pick sothing yourself?"

"I’d rather you help choose."

With that, Tang Xiaowan happily walked in front of Leng Lingxiao, starting to select suits, shirts, as well as shoes and ties for him.

She occasionally asked for Leng Lingxiao’s opinion, and he always nodded with a smile.

"Wow, this suit would look super handso!" Tang Xiaowan picked up a deep blue suit and handed it to Leng Lingxiao.

Leng Lingxiao took the suit and tried it on in front of the mirror, nodding with satisfaction, "Hmm, it’s very nice. Your taste is quite amazing!"

Seeing this, the shop assistant quickly and respectfully introduced, "This suit was created by the design master Brian Fley, made from the finest worsted fabrics and handmade sewing techniques, perfect for business settings."

Tang Xiaowan smiled and nodded, then pointed to a white shirt next to her.

The assistant hurriedly stepped forward, gently lifted it, and showed it to Tang Xiaowan: "This shirt is from the famous designer Kevin Yu, made from high-quality cotton, very comfortable to wear, breathable, and resistant to wrinkles."

Tang Xiaowan looked very pleased at Leng Lingxiao, then walked towards the tie section.

Soon, she spotted a deep blue tie, elegant and sophisticated in design.

"How about this one?"

The assistant understood imdiately and quickly responded, "It is designed by the famous design master Alex Lee, made from real silk. Whether for business or leisure, it’s an excellent choice."

Hearing this, Tang Xiaowan picked up the tie and looked at Leng Lingxiao with a smile, "It matches the suit we just saw really well, how about trying it on?"

Leng Lingxiao took the tie and tried it in front of the mirror, eyes full of indulgence as he nodded, "Hmm, indeed nice. Can you help try it out?"

"Sure, it will look super handso!"

Thereupon, Leng Lingxiao handed the tie to Tang Xiaowan, looking forward to her handling it.

Tang Xiaowan expertly wrapped the tie around Leng Lingxiao’s neck and then gently crossed the ends in front of his chest.

Her breath lightly brushed across Leng Lingxiao’s cheek and neck, causing the man’s heartbeat to suddenly speed up, almost making him kiss her impulsively.

Fortunately, reason prevailed over impulse.

Tang Xiaowan looked up to see Leng Lingxiao’s slightly embarrassed expression, and couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

But she said nothing, her delicate hands continued to adjust the tie, and finally pulled it close to fit snugly against the shirt collar.

After finishing, Tang Xiaowan stepped back to admire her work, delighted.

"Wow, it looks so good, so handso!"

"Can I sweep you off your feet?"

"Of course."

The two exchanged a smile, capturing the mont’s sentints into their eyes.

They then proceeded to the shoe section.

It was still a selection, another fitting.

"Huahua, I don’t need to wear this to the banquet tonight, do I?" Tang Xiaowan, taking advantage of the good mood of Leng Lingxiao, suddenly giggled and pointed to the ring.

Leng Lingxiao’s brows imdiately furrowed tightly.

He suddenly rembered that last night, Tang Xiaowan had secretly gone to the small bar to et Li Zishen. Though the photos and videos showed nothing happened between them, it still annoyed Leng Lingxiao.

After all, the bodyguards were quite far from them, and it was unknown what exactly the two had talked about.

Out of respect for Tang Xiaowan, he didn’t want to ask her unless she brought it up herself. But as the morning was almost over, Tang Xiaowan had not ntioned a word about it as if nothing had happened.

And now, she even thought about taking off the ring. Why?

That was his engagent ring!

Leng Lingxiao frowned and said, "What, you don’t want it anymore? Starting to dislike it, to get bored of it?"

His words were laced with a strong sense of jealousy.

The man’s eyes were dull, as if shrouded by darkness.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I just think the gemstone is too big. It’s so conspicuous. Why don’t we buy a pair of plain bands? I could even wear it to school, wouldn’t that be nice?"

Leng Lingxiao breathed a sigh of relief, nodded slightly, and his uneasy emotions dispelled instantly.

So it wasn’t that she disliked it; she just didn’t want to show off.

Ah, you little rascal. Can’t you just say everything all at once? You almost killed with the suspense.

"That’s great, you agree?"

"But, we need to engrave our nas on the outside. You wear mine, and I wear yours. It must be in Chinese characters, not just initials."

That was Leng Lingxiao’s final stubbornness.

"Okay, no problem, let’s go in a bit."

Tang Xiaowan cheerfully wrapped her arm around Leng Lingxiao’s, and gazed fixedly at him.

After a few seconds, she suddenly tiptoed up and kissed his cheek, quick and light, but filled with full affection.

She wanted to give him a sense of security.

Seeing the couple so intimate, the sales clerk made an excuse to fetch sothing, tactfully leaving them alone.

At this mont, Leng Lingxiao was sowhat reluctant to end the mont, and directly embraced Tang Xiaowan’s waist, looking at her affectionately, "Tangtang, if..."

"Huahua, I have sothing to tell you."

"Oh, okay, tell ."

"It was last night; I went to see Li Zishen. Bai Long called , said he was drinking, and asked to check on him. I thought it was a good chance to show my commitnt to you, so I went and even showed him the engagent ring. Then he left."

"Why didn’t you tell until now?"

"I originally thought it wasn’t a big deal, and indeed it wasn’t. But, I think I should tell you, since you are my fiancé, and there shouldn’t be any secrets between us."

Leng Lingxiao cleared his throat and raised his head high, "Hmm, okay, I know."

"Aren’t you going to praise ?"

"Praise you for what? If there’s a next ti... you’re not allowed outside for three days. Wherever I am, there you must be."

"Ugh, so petty, I just..."

Before Tang Xiaowan could finish her sentence, Leng Lingxiao suddenly cradled the back of her head and fiercely kissed her full, red lips, very dominantly, leaving her no chance to catch her breath.

Afterwards, Leng Lingxiao pulled Tang Xiaowan to go pay by card, buying everything she had chosen.

Facing such purchasing power, the clerk serving them was astounded, but even more excited, for the purchase was indeed quite substantial.

Suits, shirts, leather shoes, ties, all were top brands of limited new release.

"Huahua, didn’t I say I would pay?"

Leng Lingxiao raised an eyebrow, "As a punishnt."

"Wow, that’s clearly a reward, okay? Are you worried I can’t afford it?"

"I said it’s a punishnt, so it’s a punishnt."
