Fu Xi and Gong Hao were shopping.

“Ever since we got married, you haven’t accompanied me on my shopping trips. You’re not allowed to escape today,” Fu Xi said as she picked up a suit and placed it against him.

The suit was impeccably made and of a high-end design. It was very suitable for Gong Hao, and the lake blue cufflinks were especially exquisite.

“Mmm, wrap it up.” She handed the clothes to the shop assistant and turned to look for a new suit.

Gong Hao maneuvered the wheelchair to follow her. When he saw that she kept looking, he could only remind her helplessly, “Let’s buy you more. I have enough clothes to wear.”

“These are not enough. There are only a few sets here and there. I’m tired of looking at them.” Fu Xi wrinkled her nose and didn’t listen to him.

Gong Hao looked at her dotingly and started looking for a dress that suited her.

As his woman, she had to dress up beautifully. Once she had worn an outfit, she should cast them aside and never wear them again.He wanted her to shine and be a beautiful queen.

After a round of shopping, the shop assistant’s face was all smiles as she gave them a dozen shopping bags.

“Sir, Madam, take care.” The sales assistant walked them out.

“Let’s go and walk around Times Square.” Fu Xi pointed at the tall building opposite. “I want to buy some jewelry.”

“Sure.” Gong Hao had no objections.

Fu Xi smiled and pushed his wheelchair across the road. When she reached the roadside, she suddenly frowned.

“Something’s not right. Be careful!”

Following Fu Xi’s scream, Gong Hao’s eyes turned cold as he controlled the wheelchair to spin in a circle. A sharp knife slashed heavily on the back of his wheelchair.

A loud metallic sound rang out and Fu Xi quickly pulled Gong Hao’s wheelchair back.

“Ah Hao, there are people surrounding us.”

Fu Xi exhaled heavily and pressed the emergency call button.

Since she was out shopping today, she wanted to enjoy their time together. Hence, she did not get her bodyguards to protect her and kept a distance of ten meters from them.

But now, all they could see were the people surrounding them. Their bodyguards were probably also stopped and couldn’t come over.

This time, they were really in danger.

“Don’t be afraid.” Gong Hao comforted Fu Xi in a low voice as he looked coldly at the people surrounding them.

There were many of them. If he wanted to take her away, it would be difficult even if he were to expose the fact that his leg was intact.

These people had blocked their way.

“Attack!” The leader’s expression was cold as he gave the order. Everyone rushed forward fiercely.

Gong Hao and Fu Xi were just about to focus on fighting when they heard a commotion outside the crowd.

“Ah, save me!”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Miserable cries rang out continuously, and the people who were blocking Gong Hao and Fu Xi also dispersed in pain. As they retreated, a man came up behind them.

He looked somewhat similar to Gong Hao, but what was different was the aloofness in his eyes.

However, when he saw Gong Hao, he smiled again, radiating warmth. In that instant, it was as if ice and snow had melted.

“Big brother.”

Gong Hao also smiled. “Ah Cheng.”

Fu Xi, who was beside Gong Hao, narrowed her eyes slightly as she stared at the man.

So he was Gong Cheng.

Gong Cheng, the third young master of the Gong family, was Gong You’s illegitimate son. He had been overseas previously but had just returned to the country.

She vaguely remembered that he had a good relationship with Gong Hao in her past life. Gong Hao trusted him too. He had even told him that his leg was fine.
