Ji Niandong didn’t go home; she went directly to the restaurant Lu Beichen had mentioned, located on the first floor of the mall. She took the opportunity to stroll around the mall as well. She hadn’t gone shopping much in five years, and the stroll considerably improved her mood, helping her forget some unpleasantness.
Lu Beichen drove directly with Lu Sinian and quickly found her in the women’s clothing section.
The handsome and upright man holding a doll-like, exquisite child caught the attention of the sales assistants along the way. Fortunately, this mall exclusively sells luxury goods, so there were only a few scattered customers, not too crowded.
He went over and took the bag from Ji Niandong’s hand with such a gentlemanly gesture, further attracting envious looks from others.
Feeling the gazes, Ji Niandong hurriedly said, "Let’s go down and eat!"
"Didn’t you buy anything?" the man asked eagerly, "There’s still time before dinner, since we’re here, why not buy something before we leave?"
"Yes! Yes! Sister Tongtong, you look so beautiful, everything you wear would look gorgeous!" Little Bun chimed in, expressing his thoughts at the perfect moment.
Ji Niandong quickly shook her head. She was only up here to enjoy browsing and distract herself. Besides, when she glanced around earlier, the prices of everything here were shockingly high.
Just as they were hesitating, a sales assistant appeared at the right moment and said, "This lady was just staring at the dress in our window for quite a while, surely she likes it, right? Why not come in and try it on?"
When she was browsing earlier, basically no one paid her any attention. Indeed, as soon as Lu Beichen arrived, someone greeted them with a smile immediately.
Looking at his attire full of brand names, compared to her outfit of affordable clothes, they really didn’t match.
"Let’s hurry and leave!" Ji Niandong tugged at his arm, just wanting to escape, even though she didn’t mind these things, she was afraid of embarrassing him.
Lu Beichen extended his arm to stop her, pulling her to his waist, and whispered softly, "Mrs. Lu, if you like it, buy it. You deserve to match these things here!"
He said the last sentence quite loudly, implying that she was as noble as these surroundings!
This man really knows how to talk and is so generous!
The sales assistant couldn’t hide her envious and jealous look completely.
Lu Sinian quickly grabbed Ji Niandong’s hand, leading her inside and taking the opportunity to pull her out of Lu Beichen’s embrace, "Sister Tongtong, go try it on. I want to see how you look in that dress too, surely you’d look like an angel!"
He looked at her with expectant eyes, and Ji Niandong simply couldn’t refuse a child, nodding as she followed them inside.
The ivory-colored short dress with diamond embellishments had an additional lace layer on it, which gave it a nice texture and a very pretty look.
The sales assistant carefully took the dress down, saying, "This is our featured item of the season; it’s the only one we have, just arrived yesterday! How may I address you?"
Before Ji Niandong could finish, the sales assistant quickly said, "Mrs. Ji, you really suit this dress perfectly. It’s just the smallest size we have, and you being so slim will certainly fit, shall I take you to the fitting room?"
She mistakenly thought his surname was Ji. Lu Sinian was about to speak but was silenced by Lu Beichen, who pulled him to the side, waiting for her to finish trying on the clothes.
"Why did you cover my mouth?! That silly sales assistant!" Lu Sinian muttered. He didn’t like people referring to his Sister Tongtong as Great Demon’s wife!
