Cen Jin looked speechlessly at that emoji, seemingly able to imagine Miss Yu Hui’s cute appearance in her mind, which also aligned with Miss Yu Hui’s personality.
Speaking of which, the Jiang family—a family of three—each has a distinct personality, evident just from chatting. For example, Miss Yu Hui always adds a particularly cute emoji in her WeChat chats. Cen Jin feels her own collection of emojis isn’t as extensive as Miss Yu Hui’s.
Then there’s Jiang Baizhou, who can be summarized in eight words: ’cherishing words like gold, concise and to the point.’ If he can express his meaning with one word, he absolutely won’t use two.
As for Jiang Yuyang, he is also somewhat silent, but compared to Jiang Baizhou, he is much gentler and kinder.
"Let’s go to the supermarket near home then!" Cen Jin exited the chat page and handed the phone back to him.
"Hold onto it; I can’t take calls."
Cen Jin raised an eyebrow, pouted, tossed his phone into her bag, and asked, "Did Aunt Hui say when she’d be back?"
After arriving at the largest mall near the neighborhood, Jiang Baizhou found a parking spot, parked, and walked into the supermarket alongside Cen Jin.
As usual, Jiang Baizhou would grab a shopping cart at the supermarket entrance, slow down his pace, and stroll leisurely with Cen Jin.
They grew up together, and their trips to the supermarket were countless. But she didn’t know when it started that every time she stood beside him, there was a special feeling in her heart. She knew what that feeling was but couldn’t suppress it.
"What are you thinking about?" Reaching the vegetable section, Jiang Baizhou stopped and turned, finding her staring down blindly, almost running into someone. Fortunately, the person dodged quickly, but she still seemed unaware. His handsome brows instantly furrowed into a frowning expression, and his voice turned cold and hard.
Hearing his voice, Cen Jin jerked her head up to look at him. "No!"
"I’m talking to you."
"Ah, what did you say? I didn’t hear it."
"Can’t you walk properly while walking?"
"Oh." Cen Jin pouted, shook off the chaotic thoughts from her mind, and started shopping seriously with him. "What were you asking me earlier?"
She didn’t know when it started, but every time she was with him, her mind would be flooded with inexplicably strange thoughts, and the fact that he caught her so many times was the most embarrassing.
"Do you have anything you need to buy?"
Since she said that, Jiang Baizhou quickly purchased what Miss Yu Hui instructed, and as they were heading to the checkout, Cen Jin suddenly diverted and went to a snack shelf. Jiang Baizhou stood from a distance watching her compare two bags of chips with other snacks and waited in place.
After waiting for about three to four minutes, Jiang Baizhou saw she still hadn’t made up her mind and grew impatient, pushing the cart over. He glanced at the two products she was staring at on the shelf and, before speaking, he heard her ask, "Jiang Baizhou, which of these two flavors do you think tastes better?"
Jiang Baizhou frowned slightly. He never eats these kinds of puffed snacks, but she eats a lot. Now she was asking him?
Jiang Baizhou did not answer her question but directly picked up both flavors of chips and tossed them into the shopping cart, indifferently curled his lips, "You’ll know once you eat them."
