Chapter 32: Since It"s So Cheap, Why Don"t You Buy A Few More?
Nan Qiao did not feel sad because of this sentence. Instead, she curled her lips into a smile that was more or less evil.
"You can continue being stubborn."
"In any case, no matter what you think, I treat you as a friend. You took the initiative first."
Huo Yichen: …
"Lame." Huo Yichen strode away with his hands in his pockets. His black hair was suffused with gentle brown-gold under the warm sun, and his ears were slightly red.
After school in the afternoon, Murong Chen came to pick up Nan Qiao as usual. Nan Qiao was already used to this kind of behavior. If he did not let Murong Chen pick her up, he would think too much. In that case, she should just let Murong Chen pick her up.
With Nan Hao"s words, everyone no longer looked at Nan Qiao with envy when they saw her get into the luxury car. Instead, their faces were filled with disdain.
What was there to be envious of? They really looked down on her.
Huo Yichen pa.s.sed by the school gate with his school bag on his back. When he saw that she had gotten into the luxury car that was rumored to have an eight-figure value, his lips gradually pursed and his face turned slightly pale. His hands involuntarily clenched into fists.
Then, he looked at his clothes and shoes which did not even exceed a hundred yuan.
How could two people from such different worlds be friends?
"Was our little princess happy at school today?" Murong Chen rarely smiled, but when he faced Nan Qiao, he kept the corners of his mouth curled up, afraid that his sister would think that he was too fierce and run away in fear.
Nan Qiao thought about it carefully. Other than Nan Zhi and Nan Hao, she had An Nuo to talk to. Now that she had become friends with big boss Huo, it seemed like today was not a bad day.
Hence, Nan Qiao nodded. "I"m happy."
"It"s good as long as you"re happy. Our little princess has to be happy every day."
Murong Chen tidied her hair. When he saw the smile on the girl"s face, he could not help but smile.
This scene was simply too heartwarming. The a.s.sistant could not believe that Murong Chen had such a side to him. This was a top-notch sister complex, right?
The President, who had always been insulated from women, secretly had a sister complex. How many people would believe him if he told others?
Nan Qiao looked at the scenery outside the window and realized that it was a little different from usual. She asked in a daze, "Brother, aren"t we going home?"
"Yes, we"re going home, but before we go home, I want to bring you somewhere."
Nan Qiao nodded. Her brother must be bringing her to a good place.
After a while, the car stopped in an underground parking garage called Century Mall.
After taking the elevator upstairs, Nan Qiao could not help but ask curiously, "Brother, where are we going?"
The Murong Family did not seem to lack anything because they could always get someone to buy anything and send it straight to the villa.
"I"m bringing you to buy clothes." Murong Chen noticed that the temperature of the air conditioner in the elevator seemed to be a little low so he took off his coat and put it on her.
The moment Murong Chen bent down to put the coat on her, Nan Qiao saw herself in her brother"s eyes. Her cheeks were slightly red, and her eyes were so bright. When she put on her brother"s clothes, she looked like a child who had stolen an adult"s clothes. She looked like she was not even 16 years old.
"Ah?"
Nan Qiao was a little stunned and opened her mouth.
When Murong Chen saw how cute his sister was, he wished he could hug her in his arms. Such a cute sister was actually his!
This was too blissful!
Murong Chen had felt happiness twice in his life.
The first time was when he was adopted by his grandfather, and the second time was when his sister came. It ended his lonely life and added a lot of smoke and fire, but Murong Chen did not want to reject it at all. He even felt that it was a sweet experience.
When he liked someone, he wanted to give her the best of everything. Although he had already asked someone to prepare a lot, he was still very worried that she would be dissatisfied, so he specially brought Nan Qiao here to pick out clothes today.
"Big Brother, don"t we have a lot of clothes already?" Looking at the bright shops filled with all kinds of clothes, Nan Qiao was a little embarra.s.sed. She had not chosen clothes in a long time and was a little socially afraid.
"But I…" Before Nan Qiao could finish speaking, she was brought into a shop by Murong Chen.
Murong Chen took the clothes and gestured at Nan Qiao. "Is there anything you like? Do you want to give it a try?"
Nan Qiao widened her eyes and looked at the dazzling array of clothes in confusion.
However, the smile on her face subconsciously spread. Her fingertips touched these clothes. The different cloths had different textures and they were all so comfortable to touch.
There was no girl in the world who did not like beautiful clothes. Although there were already plenty at home, one would still be very tempted to see so many beautiful clothes.
Seeing the smile on his sister"s face, Murong Chen believed more that it was useful to remember the advice listed in the notebook.
A boyfriend needs to bring his girlfriend shopping more to improve her mood. The Internet said that girls liked shopping the most.
In that case, as an elder brother, he had to do it too!
"Big Brother, is this green dress more beautiful or is this blue dress more beautiful?" Nan Qiao held up her two dresses and asked Murong Chen.
"There"s no need to choose. I"ll buy them both. As long as you like it, I"ll buy the entire shop for you."
As soon as the sales lady heard Murong Chen"s words, her eyes lit up. If she sold everything, she would be able to eat well for the rest of her life with the commission from this order.
A big investor was here!
Hearing such a cla.s.sic quote from Murong Chen, Nan Qiao sat on the sofa in embarra.s.sment and moved towards Murong Chen.
"Big Brother, we"re here to shop, we are not wholesale buyers…"
As soon as Nan Qiao finished speaking, the a.s.sistant behind her suppressed her laughter. She could not hold it in anymore. Her cheek muscles hurt from restraining her laughter.
Murong Chen had never accompanied a girl to buy clothes, but he remembered that the Internet said that when a girl asked you which clothes looked good, the perfect solution was to buy them all.
But why didn"t his sister seem very happy?
Murong Chen thought about it and finally confirmed that his sister was saving money for him. She was afraid that he would spend too much, so he touched his sister"s head and said, "Since you like it, buy it. Your brother isn"t short of money. It"s more than enough to support my sister."
"But…" Nan Qiao still felt that something was wrong. She recalled her brother"s words and whispered into his ear, "But these are all very expensive. If you buy them all, you"ll go bankrupt."
Nan Qiao said seriously, her expression especially serious and a little scary.
"How much is this dress?" Murong Chen asked the saleswoman beside him.
"Sir, this dress was designed by the famous French designer, X. The current price is 150,000 yuan, and this is the only one in our shop," the sales lady replied patiently.
Murong Chen raised his eyebrows. "Since it"s so cheap, why don"t you buy a few more?"
"Cheap?" Nan Qiao raised her voice and stared at Murong Chen in disbelief. Was he joking? How could this be considered cheap?
In the past, Nan Zhi would show off for a long time when she bought a dress that cost 50,000 yuan.
Moreover, hadn"t Murong Chen just been working for the company all along? Where did he get so much money?
