“Didn’t you mention that she was getting married?!” Liuli said sympathetically.
She must have been too embarrassed to admit she was getting married!
The mere thought of it made her feel incredibly self-conscious.
Fortunately, her marriage to Uncle Tang didn’t need to be announced just yet. She still had her obligations to fulfill.
The two of them exited the neighborhood.
Lin Jingqi muttered, “Do you think we’ll cross paths again?”
“With whom?” Liuli asked, perplexed.
…..
“The car we just took?”
“It’s possible!” Liuli responded as she spotted Tang Moxi’s car turning the corner.
Liuli almost wondered if Tang Moxi had placed a tracking device on her.
“Why did you come out so quickly?”
The car window rolled down, revealing the chauffeur’s friendly smile.
“What a coincidence. Our classmates have already moved, but we couldn’t find them.”
“You’re finished with your errands as well, Uncle?” Lin Jingqi asked, smiling.
“Just like you, 1 didn’t find any friends. 1 was just about to head back when 1 saw you standing here.
“Get in the car. 1’11 give you a ride,” the chauffeur replied.
“Thank you, Brother!” Lin Jingqi said, taking the initiative this time to enter the car.
Meanwhile, Liuli seemed a bit dejected as she followed behind and settled into the car.
Liuli pondered about the chauffeur. When did he become so skilled at making up tales?
And he didn’t even blush or show signs of exertion!
Since Lin Jingqi entered the car first, she sat in the middle seat, while Liuli took the window seat.
Lin Jingqi’s fair face glowed with excitement. She wanted to start a conversation, but couldn’t figure out what to say.
“Liuli, where are you planning to go later?” Lin Jingqi eventually turned around and broke the silence with her question.
“Wherever you want to go,” Liuli replied.
Actually, Liuli was no longer in the mood for shopping.
“I’m fine with anything. It’s up to you.”
“In that case, let’s go shopping again, but 1 have to head home early today. We can shop until three o’clock,” Liuli suggested upon seeing Lin Jingqi’s hopeful expression.
“Great! Then let’s go to Century Plaza.”
“I’m up for anything!”
During the journey, Liuli didn’t engage in much conversation with Tang Moxi.
Eventually, the chauffeur dropped them off at Century Plaza before driving away.
Lin Jingqi stood there, appearing slightly irritated.
“What’s the matter?” Liuli looked at her with confusion.
“I forgot to ask for that person’s contact information earlier.”
“He already has a fiancee,” Liuli responded with a somber expression.
“We don’t want to get involved with him.”
“But consider his temperament and presence.”
“And he has a car and a driver…”
“He’s definitely not an ordinary person.”
“Isn’t it a good thing for us to know someone like him?” Lin Jingqi analyzed.
“I didn’t think too deeply about it.”
“But now that he had departed, it seemed we are not meant to be.”
“Let’s focus on shopping. Don’t dwell on it,” Liuli said, pulling Lin Jingqi forward.
“That’s why I feel a little regretful!” Lin Jingqi muttered as they walked.
“Don’t regret it. You’ll meet someone even better!” Liuli reassured her.
“You make it sound like I’m in a rush to find a man!” Lin Jingqi protested.
“I didn’t mention men earlier. I only referred to that person!�� Liuli grinned.
“You’re so annoying!” Lin Jingqi exclaimed in frustration, her cheeks turning red once again.
Liuli observed Lin Jingqi’s shy reaction and couldn’t help but sigh. This was what it meant to be more feminine!
If she could learn even half of it, perhaps Mr. Tang would perceive her as truly beautiful!
“Liuli…”
“Hmm?” Liuli snapped out of her thoughts.
“What are you pondering about?” Lin Jingqi smiled.
“I wish I could be half as gentle as you,” Liuli lamented.
“And 1 thought it would be amazing if I were half as beautiful as you!” Lin Jingqi retorted.
“Sure, you can change your appearance through plastic surgery, but can you alter your personality and temperament?” Liuli glanced at Lin Jingqi and replied.
“Well, it seems like I’m taking advantage of you then!”
“That’s right!”
After uttering those words, both of them couldn’t help but burst into laughter once more.
Soon, they strolled through the streets in high spirits, momentarily forgetting about the incident in the morning.
“Do any of them catch your interest?” Lin Jingqi asked.
“No, I have more than enough clothes. I don’t want to buy any more,” Liuli responded.
“But I always feel like I have nothing to wear!”
“That’s probably because you’ve bought so many clothes that you don’t even know what you have anymore. If you were like me, you wouldn’t have to worry about what to wear every day.Then maybe you wouldn’t feel like you have nothing to wear,” Liuli quickly fired back.
“It is just that 1 don’t think the clothes I buy are so well fitting for anything. On the contrary, your wardrobe consists of timeless pieces, like all those classic white outfits that make you look good no matter what you wear,” Lin Jingqi remarked.
“Take the outfit you’re wearing today, for example. It’s of excellent quality and looks stunning.”
“My family… bought it,” Liuli quickly interrupted herself and changed her words.
She nearly blurted out, “My man bought me this dress.”
“Your mom has great taste,” Lin Jingqi complimented.
“It’s quite nice,” Liuli replied with a wry smile.
It was the first time Mr. Tang had bought clothes for her!
She hadn’t anticipated Lin Jingqi would praise this dress he had bought..
