Shang Chen stood in the living room, watching with his own eyes as Qiao Yuxian gave Mr. Gu a peck.
Then Mr. Gu froze for a mont.
He had never seen such a blank expression on Mr. Gu’s face before.
Even more terrifying, there was a lipstick mark on Mr. Gu’s face!
Shang Chen suddenly staggered a little.
This impact was even greater than the news that Qiao Yuxian was going shopping.
Gu Yanjing was stunned for a mont before slowly standing straight.
He looked in the direction of the door, raised his hand to touch the place where he had been kissed. A bit of red stuck to his fingertips; he gently rubbed it, a smile spreading across his brows and eyes.
"Shang Chen."
"Here!" Shang Chen suddenly responded loudly.
Gu Yanjing felt slightly deafened, turned to look at him.
Shang Chen imdiately lowered his head, even wanting to retreat two steps.
Gu Yanjing looked at him for two seconds and said, "Go outside and open the car door."
"Oh, oh." Shang Chen’s brain turned a corner and he responded, "Yes, I’ll go right away."
He quickly took the car keys to open Qiao Yuxian’s car door.
Gu Yanjing went to the first floor bathroom, wiped the lipstick mark off his face, then waited in the living room for ten minutes before going out.
Outside, Qiao Yuxian sat in the car, locked the doors, lowered the window, and leaned on it, looking at him guiltily and said, "Let’s agree first, you can’t do anything to ."
Gu Yanjing just knew.
She could play with fire, while he couldn’t even hold a matchstick.
"What can I do in a car?" Gu Yanjing’s cool voice carried a hint of helplessness.
"There are plenty of things you can do." Qiao Yuxian’s blush, which had just faded, flared up again when she saw Gu Yanjing, "Anything you can do elsewhere, you can do in the car too."
Gu Yanjing: "......"
He raised a hand and flicked her lightly on the forehead.
Qiao Yuxian touched the spot where she was flicked, "I pecked you, you flicked . We’re even."
Gu Yanjing: "......"
Qiao Yuxian added, "Did you hear ?"
Gu Yanjing listened to her slightly spoiled tone and responded with, "Mm."
Qiao Yuxian felt relieved.
After all, she trusted Gu Yanjing’s promises greatly.
She unlocked the car, opened the door, and moved over to the other side, letting him get in.
Shang Chen was outside, blowing in the cold wind. Seeing they finally got in the car, he got in himself as well.
Qiao Yuxian said, "First to Jinxia Building, then to Yuehai Street."
Gu Yanjing didn’t show much reaction.
But Shang Chen, who had shopped with her before, twitched his temple twice.
One place was enough, two places....
Jinxia Building has over twenty floors, Yuehai Street is lined with international brands, stretching endlessly.
Can they co back alive?
He, the top hand under Mr. Gu, has feared nothing other than Mr. Gu his entire life.
Never did he expect to be defeated by shopping.
It’s tragic!
...
The ti they got to Jinxia Building was after four in the afternoon, and they returned to Fenglin Villa past ten at night.
In between, they only took half an hour for a al.
Upon reaching Fenglin Villa.
Qiao Yuxian was energetic enough to even go for another round of shopping.
Gu Yanjing was the sa going out and coming back, showing no signs of fatigue.
But Shang Chen was slumped with separation of body and soul.
There were too many things purchased, the car trunk couldn’t fit them, so ng Yan had to drive them back in one go first.
Likewise, ng Yan, who followed Qiao Yuxian shopping, packed up the items and drove off, giving no chance for Shang Chen to switch shifts.
In truth, it wasn’t the shopping itself that was tiring.
Carrying things and walking, such physically taxing tasks were nothing to Shang Chen.
Being a hand, he had the strength and stamina.
But waiting for Qiao Yuxian to shop was sheer torture.
An indescribable torture.
A torture that made his entire body ache.
He always wondered why.
He always thought it was Qiao Yuxian’s magic power.
Until he saw Mr. Gu absolutely unbothered, even more spirited after going out and returning.
Moreover, Mr. Gu was the one most directly affected by the magic.
He, Mr. Gu, was with Qiao Yuxian every step, helping her pick clothes, jewelry, bags...
Also paying the bills.
Also giving opinions.
Entering a store, trying on dozens of clothes, and even trying them on repeatedly.
Mr. Gu showed no sign of tiredness or impatience at all.
So he started reflecting if it was his own problem.
As soon as Qiao Yuxian entered the living room, Zhaocai ran out first.
She squatted down, hugging Zhaocai, gave it two strokes, then directly sat on the floor: "Zhaocai, did you miss ? Big sis bought you new clothes and new toys, I’ll show you in a bit."
Zhaocai wagged its tail vigorously.
Gu Yanjing, after washing his hands, ca out of the bathroom and saw her sitting directly on the floor again. He walked over and pulled her up: "Dirty."
"It won’t be. Aunt i cleans it very thoroughly every day."
"Cold." Gu Yanjing gave her another reason not to sit on the floor.
Qiao Yuxian retorted, "It isn’t cold yet, I’ll get up once it’s cold."
Zhaocai yapped softly twice, expressing agreent.
But no one knew whom it agreed with.
Gu Yanjing glanced at it, pulling on Qiao Yuxian’s hand, seating her on the sofa.
Zhaocai imdiately hopped onto the sofa, laying on her lap.
Shang Chen and ng Yan went back and forth carrying things inside.
Aunt i, seeing them continuously moving items inside, smiled and said, "Bought so many things."
"Yes." Qiao Yuxian looked at Aunt i and said, "I bought you clothes too, not sure if they fit, try them on later, if they don’t, they can be exchanged."
"Thank you, Madam." Aunt i said happily, "You even thought of ."
Qiao Yuxian said, "No worries, it’s all on Gu Yanjing’s di."
"Thank you, Sir." Aunt i said.
Gu Yanjing glanced at her, as a response.
Qiao Yuxian not only bought clothes for Aunt i but also bought gifts for Yan An, Su Qi, ng Yan, and Shang Chen.
Everyone had a share.
Of course, Gu Yanjing wasn’t left out either.
She bought the most for him.
Everything looked good was bought, thinking how good it would look on him.
"Oh, I’m so tired." Qiao Yuxian curled up on the sofa, stroking Zhaocai’s ears, said.
Gu Yanjing looked at her: "Go rest."
Qiao Yuxian looked at him, softly said, "Don’t want to move, can I nap here for a while?"
Gu Yanjing didn’t say anything.
He stood up, walked to her side.
Zhaocai felt him approaching, glanced up at him.
The expression was very cold.
But eting Gu Yanjing’s gaze, after two seconds, it jumped off the sofa and ran away.
Qiao Yuxian: "......"
She was staring at the fleeing Zhaocai, suddenly was lifted into the air, being carried horizontally.
She instinctively wrapped her arms around Gu Yanjing’s neck, looked at him.
Their glances t at a close distance, Qiao Yuxian imdiately turned her gaze away, resting her head on his shoulder, not looking at him.
Gu Yanjing carrying her upstairs.
She rested her head on his shoulder, swinging her legs, after a few seconds asked: "Gu Yanjing, why are you so good to ?"
Gu Yanjing turned his head slightly to look at her, didn’t reply.
Qiao Yuxian didn’t need his answer, she held him tighter, as if afraid he would let her go, and said, "Will you always be this good to ?"
Gu Yanjing carried her upstairs, walked to her room.
At her door, he said, "Yes."
