Chapter 9 - Shopping

When he was waiting for her in the living room, she came downstairs wearing a light blue blouse paired with black skinny jeans and nude color heels.

She finds this pair of clothes with much difficulty in Xie Ming's wardrobe.

It's just a casual look but with her black flowy hair and her glowing skin, she looked beautiful.

Without doing much, her looks were compared to those high-class models.

Though her height was not considered as tall, but she was average. But she has perfect proportions according to her height and when she smiles, dimples appear on her face making her look adorable.

When Liwei saw her coming downstairs in her high heels, he was enchanted with her looks.

No matter what, he can't get used to the natural look of Xie Ming. previously, she wears makeup all the time, even at home but now when she was not wearing any makeup, she was looking innocent and more gentle.

His eyes never left her when she was coming downstairs.

Whereas Xie Ming was having difficulty while walking in those high heels.

She found these shoes strange. She wanted something casual and flats.

' How can she walk in those high elevated shoes?'

But she couldn't find any flats in her wardrobe. Annoyed with Xie Ming's style, she had to wear those heels.

' Can't she live normally? Does she have to always wear these heels everywhere?'

Before going down, she many times tried to walk in these heels so that she won't make her fool.

But she forgot that she has to climb down the stairs.

When she was coming down from the stairs, she tightly held the railing and was carefully coming down while walking clumsily in it.

Liwei raised his brows when he saw her walking like this in those heels.

' Doesn't she wear those heels daily? Then why is she acting like, she was wearing them for the first time?'

' Does amnesia makes one forget how to walk also?' he was confused about her behavior.

When she finally came downstairs, she sighed in relief.

She walked towards where Liwei was sitting on the sofa.

When she looked at him, he was looking at her intently.

She called him, " Liwei?"

Hearing her voice, he snapped out of his stupor and looked at her, " What?" he didn't notice when she came near to him.

He was just looking at the cute faces that she was making while climbing down the stairs clumsily.

He felt awkward when he saw her curious gaze. He doesn't want her to become arrogant or bloat about her beauty so he covered his embarrassment and said coldly, " What are you doing? Can't you come faster?"

" Do you think that you're a princess or what? Always making people wait for you. Do you know how precious my every minute is? I don't have much time to waste on you. " he said with his face expressionless.

She looked at him with her mouth open.

' What she did to hear those words? Did she ask him to go with her? No. It was him who wanted her to go with him. But why he was saying that he was giving her his time?' she was flustered at his senseless words.

She sighed and ignored his harsh words.

She won't get anything by arguing with him.

After that Liwei hurriedly walked off as he said while turning his back to her, "Let's go."

Xie Ming looked at him walking fastly. She sighed and followed while walking clumsily in those heels and tight jeans.

These clothes were comfortable and cover all her exposed skin. But it made her look like a man.

' Maybe the girls here love to wear clothes like men?' she wondered as she sat in the large tin box which was called a car in this world.

She was still amazed by this thing called the car. It's faster than horses and carriages are no match in front of them.

It also gives cool air in summer. Everything here is so comfortable and amazing.

She sat beside the window as she kept staring outside the window to look at the large buildings and cars. Whenever she sees something different and new, she exclaims in astonishment, "OHHhh"

Liwei turns to see her surprised look from time to time and wonders, "What is she doing?" he mumbled lightly.

But he didn't say anything to her as he don't care, whatever she does.

…

After a while, they reach the Mall.

Xie Ming got off the car after Liwei. She looked at the large building in front of her.

It was so large that she has to look up to see it whole. Her mouth turned into OH in surprise.

When Liwei tuned to look at her, he saw her standing on the same spot staring at the Mall intently.

Her lips were in a pout. She looked adorable with this look. He can't help but smile.

Soon he shook his head and coldly said, " What are you doing? Come here. Don't waste my time."

Xie Ming looked at him and frowned. But in the end, followed him in.

She was shocked to see such a large building with strange things like an elevator and different kinds of shops.

She has seen the elevator in the hospital, but she was still scared to get on it.

When they both get on the elevator, to go onto the second floor, she quietly followed him.

When she entered the elevator, it was empty. But before it could go up, one more person, entered the elevator.

Liwei was busy on his phone behind and Xie Ming was in front of him as she fascinatingly looked at her surroundings.

This elevator was exquisite to the one in the hospital.

When the elevator moved, she almost fell because of its movement. She easily gets scared when it moves like this. She always feels that this thing will fall off any minute.

She stumbled with sudden movement and held onto the man next to her in nervousness.

The man next to her was surprised when she held onto him. But he smiled seeing the beautiful girl in front of him and gently smiled at her, " Are you okay?" he asked her in a gentle voice.

Liwei lifted his head to look at them, and his face darkened when he saw the man holding her hand.

His expressions turned ugly as he held her collar from behind and pulled her towards him.

Xie Ming didn't get to reply to the man and was pulled back, which make her stumble on her stapes as her back hit his muscled chest.

She looked back at him and saw his dark expressions. She innocently blinked at him.

" Can't you stand properly?" He said in a cold voice.

Xie Ming felt wrong as it was not her fault that she fell.? It was because of the high heels and this moving thing called the elevator.

Liwei then shifted his cold gaze at the man who was staring at him strangely, " Thank you for helping my wife. I apologize in her stead for bothering you." he said with clear indication.

Rather than thanking him, he was telling him that she was his wife. Because he could see the glitter in the man's eyes when he saw Xie Ming.

The guy was flabbergasted when he got to know that Liwei was her husband.

He didn't say anything and quickly get off when his floor arrived.

Xie Ming looked at the whole situation amusingly.

' He called me wife but does he even treat me like one?'

When the elevator arrived at their floor, she followed Liwei as he entered into a large beautiful shop.

The shop was full of women's clothes.

It was still morning and very few shops were opened at this time and this one was one of them.

She looked at the clothes with her eyes open. They were strange clothes but were very pretty.

The clothes were not much shiny and glittery but rather plain and elegant. She looked around the shop in astonishment.

The attendant looked at Xie Ming who wasn' wearing any makeup and felt envious of her beauty.

The manager came to Liwei when he noticed him.

Liwei pointed at dresses, " this, this and this. Pack them all in her size." he said as he pointed at Xie Ming.

Xie Ming looked at him blankly.

' So he came to buy clothes for me? I never expected this from him.' she looked at him and smiled lightly.
