Su Rui looked at the straw bitten by Tang Xiao, âOkay, letâs stop talking about this, do you still want to drink your orange juice? If not, letâs go.â
âLetâs go, letâs go!â Tang Xiao put down her cup and got up, carrying her bag. She appeared as if she was ready any minute.
Although Tang Xiaoâs enthusiasm was greatly dampened by the fact that it was to pick out clothes for Gu Yu Cheng, it felt good to go shopping. It is not like they would just sit here, right?
âThen letâs go and inform them.â Su Rui was referring to Gu Yu Cheng, who was currently standing not far from them discussing something with Zhou Zi Yuan and Tang Jun.
Hearing Su Ruiâs words, Tang Xiaoâs expression instantly collapsed. âWhatâs there to even inform them about? You can just send a WeChat.â Tang Xiao said.
âThey are just over there. Whatâs the point in sending a WeChat message?â Su Rui said as she didnât know whether to cry or laugh.
âOh, then go by yourself. Iâll wait for you at the door.â In any case, she wonât go over there when that Zhou is present.
For those three people across from them, not mentioning her elder brother, she is at most intimidated by Su Xiao Ruiâs Chairman Gu. However, regarding Zhou Zi Yuan, she felt deeply resentful and utterly disgusted.
As she looked at Tang Xiao, who had already picked up her bag and was walking towards the door, Su Rui smiled helplessly. She had no choice but to personally go and notify Gu Yu Cheng and the others.
Seeing Su Rui come over, Gu Yu Cheng took her into his arms instinctively. âHave you finished talking with Tang Xiao?â Gu Yu Cheng asked with a gentle kiss on Su Ruiâs forehead
âThere wasnât much to talk about anyway,â Su Rui smiled, âBut Tang Xiao and I are going shopping.â Saying this Su Rui turned to Tang Jun.
âWhen?â
âRight now.â
âYou donât need me to go with you?â
âNo need. You guys enjoy yourselves.â Su Rui winked towards Gu Yu Cheng. âAnd itâs not far, itâs just around the corner.â.
She had checked and there were a few shopping malls nearby, as well as some studios she had made appointments in.
âOkay, then you guys go shopping and Iâll pick you up later.â
âOk.â Su Rui agreed.
Originally, Su Rui wanted to give Gu Yu Cheng a goodbye kiss, but she held back as there were others present.
âThen you guys chat.â Su Rui nodded towards Zhou Zi Yuan and Tang Jun.
After meeting each other for dinner and other events, they had grown quite close to each other and spoke much more casually.
âThen, I will have to trouble you to look after Tang Xiao Xiao. I have something to do in the evening. When both of you have finished shopping, drop me a message in the WeChat group.â Tang Jun said to Su Rui
The main thing is, this girl has been a bit conceited[1]
lately, and he was worried that she would go for a second round in the evening under the disguise of shopping with Su Rui.
âDonât worry, weâll send your younger sister back on the way.â Gu Yu Cheng said.
At this, Zhou Zi Yuan spoke up. âHowâs that convenient? Itâs a rare free weekend, and you guys have to send Tang Little Xiao back, what a waste of timeâ, Zhou Zi Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked pensively at Gu Yu Cheng and Su Rui. He turned to Tang Jun, âWhen the time comes, you go about your business, Iâll go with Lao Gu, he can pick up his wife, and Iâll drop your sister home safely, okay?â
Tang Jun glanced at Zhou Zi Yuan silently.
â¦â¦
âHave you finished saying goodbye to your Chairman Gu?â With her hands folded, Tang Xiao teased Su Rui as she walked out.
âYeah, yeah.â Looking at Tang Xiao Niuâs excited and happy face, Su Rui decided to wait until after the shopping to tell her the bad news that Zhou Zi Yuan was going to pick her up later and that her brother had acquiesced.
Itâs important to keep this chick happy as she has to choose her clothes with her, haha.
There arenât a lot of menâs clothes, unlike womenâs clothes. Therefore, both Su Rui and Tang Xiao didnât spend too much time. looking around the nearby malls and menâs clothing shops specializing in haute couture.
âHave you thought about what you want to buy for your Chairman Gu?â Tang Xiao questioned curiously.
âA shirtâ, Su Rui said. âWhat do you think?â
âShirt⦠â Hearing Su Ruiâs words, Tang Xiao rolled her eyes. A thought flashed through her mind and she smiled mischievously.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âItâs not good?â
âNo, no, no, itâs good, very good. Your Chairman Gu will definitely like the shirt. Hehe.â Tang Xiao did not forget to laugh in order to prove that she was being honest. It would be best to send you with the shirt as well hehe.
Su Rui: ⦠Whatâs on this chickâs mind? Why does that smile feel a little lewd?
Ignoring Tangâs inexplicably obscene smile, Su Rui continued picking up a shirt for Gu Yu Cheng in a very serious manner.
âHow about this style, the blue-grey one?â
âI think you look better in white.â Tang Xiao softly mumbled.
âWhat did you say?â
âEr, I mean white is better, white is festive, haha.â
Festive⦠But itâs true that white is easier to match with other clothes.
âOk, letâs take a look at the white one then.â
In the end, Su Rui picked out a bespoke shirt in pure white with a special sleeve hook design.
âOh my.â Hearing that Su Rui accurately related the size for the shirt to be customized, Tang Xiao couldnât help but smile ambiguously beside her. âThis is your familyâs Chairman Guâs size?â
âYeah?â
âHehe. You know it so well. Did you sneak up and measure while Chairman Gu was sleeping?â Tang Xiao asked with an amused expression.
âCouldnât I have just asked him directly?â Su Rui looked askance at Tang Xiao.
âYou just asked directly?â
âOtherwise?â
Measure? She didnât have the skills to do that, even if she had the opportunity. Su Rui was amused.
But then she heard Tang Xiao said, âItâs not interesting at all.â
According to the cliché in those romance dramas, shouldnât it be measured secretly at night when one was doing the deed, or next morning when one wakes up?
