After leaving Julia Bluen's office and walking outside, two Bodyguards imdiately ca forward. Not seeing Julia Bluen, Wade Coleman couldn't help but ask, "Master Horne, where is Mistress Horne?"
Master Horne ca to pick up Mistress Horne. Could it be that Mistress Horne isn't here, and he made a wasted trip? No, that can't be right; Mistress Horne's car is still here, so she must be around. Then… could the two of them have had a fight? Absolutely not! Master Horne would pluck the sun from the sky for Mistress Horne if he could, so how could they possibly have had a fight? Wade Coleman dismissed the speculation.
Glades Horne, with a cold deanor, handed the list Julia had made to Wade Coleman and instructed in a deep voice, "Let's go to the Shopping Mall to buy these things first." With that said, he walked past the two Bodyguards toward his car parked not far away.
Wade Coleman took the list, and his expression changed dramatically. These various small items seem to be for making dumplings, don't they? Regardless of their purpose, is Master Horne going to buy them himself? This is a housewife's duty. A man of Master Horne's noble stature is actually going to buy these ingredients?
At this thought, Wade Coleman hurried forward a few steps and respectfully said to Glades Horne, "Master Horne, we can prepare these items. You don't need to go; it would be better for you to stay here with Mistress Horne."
If the Paparazzi found out that Master Horne went to the Shopping Mall to buy these ingredients, tomorrow's newspaper headline would definitely be "Heir Transforms Into Dostic Husband, Shopping for Pork with Bodyguards." Phew, if that kind of headline were published, would Master Horne explode in anger? If Master Horne lost his temper, that newspaper would be dood.
Glades Horne didn't say a word, just pursed his lips and continued walking forward. When he reached his car, he opened the door and slid into the back seat.
Wade Coleman, left with no choice, got into the car with the other Bodyguard; Wade drove. Both Bodyguards knew in their hearts that this shopping list must have been made by Mistress Horne. Master Horne's doting affection for Mistress Horne was truly no ordinary thing; it was as deep as the ocean. Because Mistress Horne had specified these items, Master Horne was willing to disregard his own status and go buy them personally. Forget soone of Master Horne's stature; even many ordinary working-class n wouldn't be willing to shop for these ingredients like a dostic husband.
The Rolls-Royce carried Glades Horne toward the city's largest Shopping Mall. A large Shopping Mall like that would typically have a Vegetable Section and a at section; they would surely be able to find all the ingredients Julia Bluen had listed.
At the Shopping Mall, Glades Horne followed Julia's list, picking out the needed ingredients one by one, with the two Bodyguards following behind to help carry everything. Although Julia had made a list, she had overlooked one detail: Glades had no idea how much of each item was needed, so he bought a large quantity of every ingredient.
By the ti they had nearly bought all the ingredients, the two Bodyguards were no longer carrying them by hand but were pushing a shopping cart piled high. Anyone who didn't know better might have thought Glades Horne was preparing for so grand celebration, given how much he was buying.
The amount of pork alone was astounding. Originally, only a little lean at was needed, but he had swept away all the remaining lean at. Still worried it might not be enough, he even took all the pre-packaged, priced portions from the freezer. This left the Shopping Mall employee at the at counter dumbfounded, likely thinking Glades Horne hadn't eaten pork in ten lifetis.
As for other ingredients like corn, mushrooms, and Chinese chives, he swept away everything on display like a whirlwind.
Watching his tall figure stand in the Vegetable Section and, with a sweep of his large hand, gather all the Chinese chives into the shopping cart in such a domineering fashion left everyone utterly astonished. His handso appearance and noble aura already made him stand out in the crowd like a crane among chickens. Such domineering and grand actions naturally drew even more attention.
In any case, by the ti they reached the checkout, the shopping cart the two Bodyguards were pushing was piled mountain-high—it held more than any other shopper's.
After paying and leaving the Shopping Mall, as the two Bodyguards carried the items towards the car, the short, few-minute walk made them feel as if their arms would break from the strain.
Shopping with Master Horne is terrifying! Whoever cos with him next ti is in for so suffering.
By the ti they returned to the Trading Company, it was just when Julia Bluen was finishing work.
"Did you get all the ingredients?" Julia Bluen asked with a smile, organizing the docunts on her desk as Glades Horne walked into her office.
Glades Horne nodded and stepped forward to help her tidy the docunts.
After arranging the items on her desk and picking up her bag, Julia Bluen walked around from behind it. A bent arm imdiately entered her line of sight. She tilted her head, eting Glades Horne's captivating gaze, and then smiled as she looped her arm through his.
When they left the office and walked outside, Julia Bluen suddenly felt sothing was amiss. The two Bodyguards were looking at her very carefully, with a hint of sympathy, and an expression that suggested they wanted to laugh but didn't dare.
What's wrong with ? Did sothing happen?
Julia Bluen couldn't help but turn her head to glance at Glades Horne beside her. His handso face was still composed, his lips still pursed, and his deep eyes were as profound as ever. His expression was unchanged; there was nothing out of the ordinary about him.
But Julia Bluen soon understood why the two Bodyguards were looking at her with such cautious, slightly sympathetic expressions, as if they wanted to laugh but didn't dare. The back seat of Glades Horne's car was stuffed with at and produce—everything she had listed for him to buy so they could make dumplings that evening. But isn't this way too much?
The mont Julia Bluen saw the enormous bag full of lean at, her eyes widened in shock. Then she saw the corn, stuffed into bags as large as sacks. Good heavens, that's enough corn for to eat for three months!
"This… Glades…" Julia Bluen started to say, but ultimately couldn't form the words. Instead, she covered her mouth and burst out laughing.
She didn't want to laugh at her husband, but she just couldn't help it. Even if he'd never made dumplings himself, he should have so idea of how much of each ingredient was needed for the filling, right? She had made a list but hadn't specified quantities, so he bought everything the Shopping Mall had on display. Were they planning to open their own grocery store or sothing?
