He’s not exactly a bro, so why does he get to be with someone so good-looking?
What’s wrong with being humble? Wealthy people just like to keep a low profile; who knows, he might be the boss of a listed company!
Exactly! Don’t just look at the beauty; don’t you think that guy is pretty handsome too? Tall and fair, he’s practically my ideal type!
They were discussing us while I and Ouyang Zhirou were completely unaware. Gradually, we made our way to the third floor, gazing at the myriad of products, unsure of where to start.
Zhao Lun exclaimed, “I want cherries! I also want Durian Musang King, chips, and cola!”
Ouyang Zhirou babbled on like a comedian reciting a menu, listing so many things in one breath. My only response was a single word: “Buy!”
I didn’t care whether her little stomach could hold all that; it was still just one word: buy!
First, there was Zhou Youwang trying to make Bao Si laugh with his antics, then Wu Sangui losing his temper for a beauty, and now Zhao Lun spending lavishly to win Zhi Rou’s favor!
Isn’t money meant to be spent? Are we supposed to take it with us when we die? As long as she likes it, let’s buy it!
Upon hearing the word “buy,” Ouyang Zhirou immediately jumped up and planted a kiss on my cheek. “Yay!”
They say that women who act cute have it easy; isn’t that true now?
With just one sentence, I made a man spend eight hundred thousand on me.
Seeing her lively and adorable demeanor made me unconsciously smile. She was only a year older than me, yet at this moment, she radiated childlike innocence.
So, Ouyang Zhirou and I kept weaving through the corners of the third-floor mall. Whenever she couldn’t carry something, I would take it for her; when she couldn’t lift an item, I would help her with that too. Our shopping cart was overflowing with countless items.
At this moment, all we saw was each other. She wished time would stop right here so that I would belong to her forever—no need to compete with anyone else or worry about other matters.
But this wish would be unfulfilled. Even so, as long as she was happy now, that was enough. Perhaps years later, the person by her side wouldn’t be me, and the person by my side might not be her either. At least we had this memory; it wouldn’t be in vain to have lived in this world.
As we looked at the long line of shopping carts filled with items, I paused my actions and said, “Zhi Rou, isn’t this enough? I’m afraid there won’t be space at home.”
Ouyang Zhirou hadn’t realized she had picked out so many things either; she almost forgot that Zhao Lun’s house wasn’t as spacious as hers. “Alright, alright! It’s been so long since we went shopping; I got a bit carried away. Let’s go check out.”
Seeing this, I called over several staff members to help us push the carts because it would take us forever to do it alone.
The staff looked at us as if they had seen ghosts—was there a famine at home? Or had we encountered some disaster? We must have cleared out at least a third of the entire third floor!
With the help of multiple staff members, it took us over half an hour to finish checking out. “Hello sir, your total is one thousand.”
“Swipe my card; please call more people to help deliver this to Aoshi Haoting building. The extra money can be considered as their tip for hard work.”
Meanwhile, in a corner on the third floor, a woman wearing a hat and mask was furiously yelling at several men beside her. “Go find him now! He’s wearing a black hat and white shorts; even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, you better find him for me!”
The image described by the woman was exactly me. The crowd immediately began searching the entire third floor for my whereabouts after she scolded them. However, I had already settled my bill and was heading home with Ouyang Zhirou, so how could they possibly find me?
The woman raised her hand to remove her mask, biting her beautifully manicured nails. Her expression twisted, her pupils slightly dilated as she fixated on the traces I left behind in the mall. A cold smile crept onto her lips. "Brother Zhao Lun," she said, her voice brimming with barely contained excitement, "I've been looking for you for so long. Finally, I've found you. This time, I won't let you escape from my side."
