âDidnât you mention that she was getting married?!â 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 didnât need to be announced just yet. She still had her obligations to fulfill.
The two of them exited the neighborhood.
Lin Jingqi muttered, âDo you think weâll cross paths again?â
âWith whom?â Liuli asked, perplexed.
âThe car we just took?â
âItâs possible!â Liuli responded as she spotted Tang Moxiâs car turning the corner.
Liuli almost wondered if Tang Moxi had placed a tracking device on her.
âWhy did you come out so quickly?â
The car window rolled down, revealing the chauffeurâs friendly smile.
âWhat a coincidence. Our classmates have already moved, but we couldnât find them.â
âYouâre finished with your errands as well, Uncle?â Lin Jingqi asked, smiling.
âJust like you, 1 didnât find any friends. 1 was just about to head back when 1 saw you standing here.
âGet in the car. 1â11 give you a ride,â the chauffeur replied.
âThank you, Brother!â 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 didnât 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 Jingqiâs fair face glowed with excitement. She wanted to start a conversation, but couldnât figure out what to say.
âLiuli, where are you planning to go later?â Lin Jingqi eventually turned around and broke the silence with her question.
âWherever you want to go,â Liuli replied.
Actually, Liuli was no longer in the mood for shopping.
âIâm fine with anything. Itâs up to you.â
âIn that case, letâs go shopping again, but 1 have to head home early today. We can shop until three oâclock,â Liuli suggested upon seeing Lin Jingqiâs hopeful expression.
âGreat! Then letâs go to Century Plaza.â
âIâm up for anything!â
During the journey, Liuli didnât 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.
âWhatâs the matter?â Liuli looked at her with confusion.
âI forgot to ask for that personâs contact information earlier.â
âHe already has a fiancee,â Liuli responded with a somber expression.
âWe donât want to get involved with him.â
âBut consider his temperament and presence.â
âAnd he has a car and a driverâ¦â
âHeâs definitely not an ordinary person.â
âIsnât it a good thing for us to know someone like him?â Lin Jingqi analyzed.
âI didnât think too deeply about it.â
âBut now that he had departed, it seemed we are not meant to be.â
âLetâs focus on shopping. Donât dwell on it,â Liuli said, pulling Lin Jingqi forward.
âThatâs why I feel a little regretful!â Lin Jingqi muttered as they walked.
âDonât regret it. Youâll meet someone even better!â Liuli reassured her.
âYou make it sound like Iâm in a rush to find a man!â Lin Jingqi protested.
âI didnât mention men earlier. I only referred to that person!â Liuli grinned.
âYouâre so annoying!â Lin Jingqi exclaimed in frustration, her cheeks turning red once again.
Liuli observed Lin Jingqiâs shy reaction and couldnât 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!
âLiuliâ¦â
âHmm?â Liuli snapped out of her thoughts.
âWhat are you pondering about?â Lin Jingqi smiled.
âI wish I could be half as gentle as you,â Liuli lamented.
âAnd 1 thought it would be amazing if I were half as beautiful as you!â Lin Jingqi retorted.
âSure, you can change your appearance through plastic surgery, but can you alter your personality and temperament?â Liuli glanced at Lin Jingqi and replied.
âWell, it seems like Iâm taking advantage of you then!â
âThatâs right!â
After uttering those words, both of them couldnât help but burst into laughter once more.
Soon, they strolled through the streets in high spirits, momentarily forgetting about the incident in the morning.
âDo any of them catch your interest?â Lin Jingqi asked.
âNo, I have more than enough clothes. I donât want to buy any more,â Liuli responded.
âBut I always feel like I have nothing to wear!â
âThatâs probably because youâve bought so many clothes that you donât even know what you have anymore. If you were like me, you wouldnât have to worry about what to wear every day.Then maybe you wouldnât feel like you have nothing to wear,â Liuli quickly fired back.
âIt is just that 1 donât 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,â Lin Jingqi remarked.
âTake the outfit youâre wearing today, for example. Itâs of excellent quality and looks stunning.â
âMy family⦠bought it,â Liuli quickly interrupted herself and changed her words.
She nearly blurted out, âMy man bought me this dress.â
âYour mom has great taste,â Lin Jingqi complimented.
âItâs quite nice,â Liuli replied with a wry smile.
It was the first time Mr. Tang had bought clothes for her!
She hadnât anticipated Lin Jingqi would praise this dress he had bought..
