"You can be happy too?" Mu Qi stared at Yun Shinian, as if trying to see through her true thoughts.
Yun Shinian nodded without hesitation.
"Mu Qi, do you want to come in with me?" Yun Shinian took Mu Qi's hand but didn't walk inside.
"Mu Qi, have you been very busy lately? Do you have time to go shopping with me?"
"Mm," Mu Qi responded without hesitation, while Shan Gong, standing beside him, hesitated to speak.
Yun Shinian noticed Shan Gong's expression. Even if she hadn't, she knew Mu Qi was very busy.
"No can do, keeping me is very expensive. Go back to work properly," Yun Shinian let go of Mu Qi's hand and instead patted his head.
"I'll go with you," Mu Qi emphasized his intention again. In the past, Mu Qi wouldn't have said this much.
Now, it seemed Mu Qi hadn't even noticed, as Yun Shinian's indulgence had subconsciously made him more unrestrained.
"What about your work? Are you going to secretly work overtime behind my back again tonight?" Yun Shinian hooked Mu Qi's chin, clearly knowing him very well.
"If you don't hold me while I sleep, I can't sleep well at all, so you can't work overtime," Yun Shinian said in a soft, cooing tone, seeing Mu Qi lower his gaze.
Yun Shinian said this not to persuade Mu Qi to work; she genuinely couldn't sleep well at night without Mu Qi holding her.
"Be good, I'll bring you a gift. If you come with me, there won't be a surprise."
Seeing that Mu Qi's expression was less dejected, Yun Shinian poked his abs and continued to entice him.
Shan Gong saw Yun Shinian say this and no longer looked at her as if she were Daji. Instead, he nodded in approval inwardly.
Mu Qi looked up, "A gift?"
"Yes, yes, yes, I promise there will be a gift," Yun Shinian nodded with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.
Yun Shinian thought to herself that Mu Qi was becoming increasingly adorable.
"Hurry back to the company, I'll see you tonight."
Yun Shinian gently pushed Mu Qi towards the car. She was genuinely afraid that if Mu Qi continued to look at her with such an affectionate gaze, she would just take him home.
After speaking, Yun Shinian walked towards the Feng Cheng Xiang counter on her own, occasionally turning back to wave her hand with her thumb and four fingers touching in farewell to Mu Qi.
"Young Master, let's go."
Shan Gong saw that Yun Shinian's receding figure was almost out of sight, and Mu Qi was still standing in the same spot, gazing in the direction Yun Shinian had left. Shan Gong couldn't help but prompt him.
"Mm," Mu Qi nodded, but his eyes remained fixed on the direction Yun Shinian had gone.
A minute later, Shan Gong saw that Mu Qi still had no intention of returning to the car and sighed helplessly.
So, even if Yun Shinian wasn't the seductive Daji, their Young Master was still utterly captivated by her.
Although Shan Gong's appearance couldn't compare to Mu Qi's, he was still handsome and had an air of heroic spirit about him.
The two of them standing on the street naturally attracted a crowd of onlookers, both male and female.
However, what they didn't know was that in a hidden corner, a woman was watching Mu Qi with greedy, lustful eyes.
This person was the very waitress who had given Yun Shinian a hard time.
"Oh my, Aunt Ning, please stop smiling."
Meanwhile, when Yun Shinian returned to the Feng Cheng Xiang counter with Aunt Ning, Aunt Ning's maternal smile had not faded.
Every time Yun Shinian inadvertently glanced at Aunt Ning's smiling face, she couldn't help but cover her face with her hands.
"Alright, alright. Young Madam won't smile anymore, let's look at the jade," Aunt Ning said, covering her mouth with her hand, but her eyes were still curved in a smile.
Thus, Yun Shinian and Aunt Ning spent the entire afternoon carefully selecting items, and finally finished their shopping.
Yun Shinian chose a pink jade pendant as a birthday gift for the young girl Ning Jing and insisted on selecting a very fine imperial green jade bracelet for Aunt Ning.
However, when she thought about buying a gift for Mu Qi, Yun Shinian became troubled, feeling that nothing here was worthy of him.
Aunt Ning said that Mu Qi would like anything Yun Shinian found beautiful, but Yun Shinian only wanted to give Mu Qi the best. If she couldn't find anything suitable, she'd rather not give a gift.
So, Yun Shinian went to her own Ru Yi Lou.
Yun Shinian browsed and browsed. Every piece of clothing inside was extremely valuable, yet whether they were casual or formal wear, Yun Shinian was not satisfied with any of them.
Finally, Yun Shinian walked out of Ru Yi Lou in disappointment.
Yun Shinian had already lost hope, but while waiting for the driver to bring the car over, she inadvertently noticed the clothing stalls selling clothes on the street next to them.
Yun Shinian's gaze was immediately drawn to a t-shirt covered in hearts.
...
"Hey, young lady, come and take a look, super cute couple's shirts."
The owner of the stall enthusiastically waved to the couples passing by.
But those people glanced at the clothes beside the owner and quickly walked away.
Later, an outgoing young girl walked over and looked through the owner's clothes. Finally, she honestly said, "Auntie, your clothes are too tacky and outdated. They obviously look cheap."
"Hey, young lady, what are you talking about? What kind of taste do you have? How are my clothes outdated when they're so beautiful?"
As soon as the stall owner heard this, she became unhappy. With her hands on her hips, she looked as if she was determined to argue with the young girl.
"They are! Your pattern, a big red heart! Who would buy this kind of thing now!" the young girl said with disgust.
However, she didn't expect to be proven wrong the moment she finished speaking.
"Boss, I'll take these two couple's shirts," Yun Shinian said, pointing at the couple's shirts with the tacky big red hearts that the young girl had just criticized.
"Alright, 29.9 each. Two for 50 will do," the stall owner said, looking at Yun Shinian with admiration before packing them up for her.
"Sister, are you okay? Don't you think this pattern is ugly?"
"No," Yun Shinian immediately denied, her gaze distant as she looked at the couple's t-shirt with the big red heart.
"My boy seems a bit cold, I've hurt him deeply.
I wish for him that in the rest of his life, he can be surrounded by love, just like this t-shirt.
Let him feel warmth, let him feel that the world is worth it."
After Yun Shinian finished speaking, the young girl was stunned for two seconds. When she looked at the t-shirt with the big red heart again, her gaze was no longer filled with the previous disgust.
