Chapter 408: I’ll Buy One for You When I Propose to You
Leng Yu stood up straight. “Where is Jian Qi?” She asked.
“Jian Qi left with Boss,” Zhao Yu answered immediately. There was a slight tremble in his voice.
‘This lady is truly violent. I can’t afford to get on her bad side!’
After glancing at the group of people, Leng Yu ignored Lightning, who was still rubbing his waist mournfully, and turned around to leave the canteen.
Only then did the group of people around Lightning extend their hands to help him get up.
“Something like this could happen to you too!” Crocodile teased with a smirk on his face.
Lightning chuckled. “I was just going easy on her.”
Everyone chuckled. Who would believe him?
Leng Yu was an expert in close combat.
With her capabilities in martial arts, n.o.body could afford to get on her bad side.
“Let’s disperse. We’ll take a rest before we continue with training!” Lightning waved his hand before placing his hand over his waist yet again.
Crocodile laughed out loudly. “How far along are you?”
“Get lost!” Lightning shouted.

When Jian Qi saw that Tang Jinyu was driving toward the city, she felt surprised. “Where are we going?”
“Home,” Tang Jinyu said calmly.
Jian Qi was stunned for a moment. “Instructor Tang, are you bringing me home to meet your parents?” She chuckled devilishly.
“I didn’t expect things to develop this quickly. I feel shy now.” Jian Qi covered her face as she pretended to feel embarra.s.sed.
After Tang Jinyu glanced at her, he shook his head speechlessly.
‘She really is an Acting Queen!’
A few hours later, the car stopped in front of a shopping mall.
Jian Qi raised her brows slightly. “Aren’t we going home? Why did we come to the mall?”
Tang Jinyu smiled half-heartedly. “Naturally, one must prepare gifts when meeting the parents of her significant other. Do you have money?”
Jian Qi reached into her pockets before pulling them out to show that they were empty.
Tang Jinyu felt an urge to laugh when he saw how cooperative she was.
In the end, he remained silent and began walking into the shopping mall.
Jian Qi raised her brows. Was he dissing her for not having money?
Although both wore camouflage uniforms, the two seemed to contrast each other. Tang Jinyu walked stiffly whereas Jian Qi appeared lax and playful when she was walking next to him. Therefore, despite their military status, everyone would immediately think these two were shopping in a couple’s outfit when they saw Jian Qi.
At first, people would stare at the very good-looking couple. However, after noticing Jian Qi’s mannerism, people began paying less attention to them.
When they arrived at a jewelry store, there was only a pair of customers in the store. Meanwhile, there were more than ten shopping a.s.sistants.
It appeared rather deserted.
After Jian Qi followed Tang Jinyu inside, she casually glanced at the jewelry on display.
‘Hey, these are quite expensive!’
When the manager saw Tang Jinyu entering the store, he quickly came to greet Tang Jinyu with a smile. “Young Master Tang, you’re here.”
“I came to pick the item up.” Tang Jinyu nodded plainly.
“Please wait a moment,” the manager said politely before turning around to personally retrieve the item.
Meanwhile, another shopping a.s.sistant approached Tang Jinyu and Jian Qi with two cups of tea. “Young Master Tang, please have a seat here.”
Tang Jinyu nodded and was about to do as suggested when he saw Jian Qi leaning against a gla.s.s cabinet. Therefore, he walked over to her instead.
“What are you looking at?” Tang Jinyu asked.
“I’m looking at rings.” Jian Qi smiled. “Have a look too. Which one do you like? I’ll buy one for you when I propose to you.”
Tang Jinyu. “…”
The shopping a.s.sistant nearby tried not to laugh. ‘This lady is really funny.’
‘Doesn’t she know that this store belongs to the Tang family?’
Meanwhile, Tang Jinyu ignored Jian Qi as he turned around and walked away.
“Don’t mind him. He’s always like this. He gets embarra.s.sed very easily,” Jian Qi explained to the shopping a.s.sistant nearby.
The shopping a.s.sistant smiled and nodded. He wondered what kind of heavenly being this lady was to have the guts to tease Tang Jinyu like that.
