Lu Kang had waited in the car for 15 minutes before he finally saw Nian Junting emerging from within the villa with a glum look on his face. His heart was thumping. Ever since Mr. Nian and Luosang had stayed together, he had left the house in a cheery mood every day. Was it because he had been late by three minutes?
Only after Nian Junting got into the car did he ask in trepidation, “Mr. Nian, is everything alright? Was it something I did?”
Nian Junting looked at him blankly and said in a monotone, “I suffered heavy losses last night.”
Lu Kang froze. “Mr. Nian, did you buy any stocks again last night? In any case, you’ve always succeeded in trading stocks.”
Nian Junting chuckled. “What stocks? Last night Luoluo put on the lingerie I got you to buy previously, but I was too busy and ended up not paying any attention.”
“...”
Lu Kang’s lips curled slightly. He thought to himself, with so much capital in the stock market, how could he speak of stocks so lightly? However, he said, “Mr. Nian, you should have had a proper rest after working so late last night. The company’s stock prices have already stabilized. You don’t have to worry about it anymore.”
“I wasn’t busy with work, I was busy with private matters.” Nian Junting rubbed his eyes, annoyed. “I’m planning to take Luosang for a lover’s vacation in the winter. I tried to search for a suitable location by the sea, but after a few hours of searching, I still haven’t found anywhere special.”
Lu Kang was speechless. He had overestimated his boss’s enthusiasm for work. Mr. Nian had evidently fallen too deeply in love.
At two in the afternoon, Nian Xi came over to take Luosang and Murong Cheng shopping. Luosang drove on the way there. Nian Xi sat in the front passenger’s seat, using her phone to search makeup brands. “Luoluo, what do you think about this lipstick from Dior? Apparently, it’s great for use in the winter.” Nian Xi showed her a picture.
Luosang took a look at it and said, “Not bad.”
“How about this one from Estee Lauder?”
“Not bad, either.” Luosang saw that she was conflicted and said, “If you like, you can just buy all of them, but you should try out the colors first.”
“That’s true. I have so many things to buy today, you’ll have to spend the entire day shopping with me.” Nian Xi could not contain her excitement. “Ji Chuan is coming back soon. I need to dress up nicely for him. After not seeing each other for a year, I have to make him swoon at the sight of me.”
Luosang chuckled. She could empathize with her. Who wouldn’t want to display her most beautiful side to the one they loved? However, from what Nian Junting had told her, Feng Ji Chuan would have to be hospitalized immediately after returning. Would Nian Xi still be in the mood to dress up then?
The mall that the three of them were visiting was the one that had the most luxury goods shops in the entire Xia City. Murong Cheng appeared to have been waiting for a while. She wore a seasonal coat, looking mature and experienced.
Greeting each other, Murong Cheng smiled warmly. “We met so hastily the previous time and ended things on a sour note. Let’s have a good day out today. Sangsang, tell me whatever you would like to buy, and I’ll buy whatever you want for you. You can consider yourself half a daughter-in-law today.”
Luosang was flattered. Although Nian Junting had told her to buy whatever she wanted wildly, she was still ill-at-ease. She could not let Murong Cheng think that she was materialistic. “Thank you, Auntie. Junting has actually bought many new clothes for me. I’ll just take a look around.”
“Don’t be shy, my mom’s loaded. My brother doesn’t spend her money. If it’s just me spending her money, the pressure will be immense.” Nian Xi took her hand and began walking towards the escalator. “Come, come. Let’s go check out the lipstick brands.”
Murong Cheng looked at her daughter helplessly. “Am I buying things for you, or Sangsang?”
