Accidental Love

Chapter 18.1: It Looked Quite Romantic



Whether to buy these dresses or not has become a great problem for Qin Lezhi.

If she did buy them, then that would be like what Qin Shiyue said, She picked out the ugliest ones.

If she didn't buy them, well, everyone was watching, it would be really embarrassing just to leave like this.

And Zheng Shuyi was watching the shop assistant scanning one set of dresses after the other. She stood by the counter and whispered to Qin Shiyue, "Wait, are we actually buying all of these?"

Qin Shiyue nodded seriously, "Of course."

“I don't think this is necessary."

"Don't worry, it's one of my uncle's cards. He won't mind."

"That's even worse, I don't even know your uncle."

"Stop worrying so much, I already said I'll buy them, I can't take that back anymore!"

Qin Shiyue was probably too excited after stepping into this face-slapping drama. Her expression was like I'm going to pay for these and no one is going to stop me! Then she said, "Just think of this as a thank you gift for inviting me to watch the concert."

――And also a little compensation for something that happened earlier…

But she felt too embarrassed to say this out loud.

After swiping the card, she signed, and the series of motions seemed smooth and elegant. Much faster than when she was trying to organize some drafts.

After a big wave of her hand, she took an angry look at Qin Lezhi and Yue Xingzhou.

"Thanks, sister."

"What the hell's wrong with you–", all the other customers in the store were standing there watching the scene. Qin Lezhi couldn't just sit there and pretend nothing had happened as she yelled angrily and rushed forward to Qin Shiyue. Fortunately, she was stopped by Yue Xingzhou.

Several shop assistants surrounded Qin Shiyue and Zheng Shuyi, and there were also many people who were just watching for fun.

Qin Shiyue turned her head in the crowd, "Why are you cursing? What's wrong with me buying clothes? Did I spend your money?"

"That's enough!" Yue Xingzhou grabbed onto the pissed-off Qin Lezhi and dragged her outside, "Let's not buy these, they don't look that good anyway."

"Don't look that good?" Qin Lezhi sneered and said in a voice that only he could hear, "I think your eyeballs were about to stick onto her body just now."

——

The dazzling lights made Zheng Shuyi a bit confused.

The shop assistants were looking at them as their own mothers. They were literally about to complete a whole season's worth of KPI in one day.

This made Zheng Shuyi feel a bit uncomfortable; she felt that rich people probably thought differently from others.

But Zheng Shuyi still wore the red dress, and when walking out of the mall, her hands were full of check-outs waiting to be delivered to her house.

Like a hot potato, she really didn't know how to deal with these.

She even started to plan how to return these once they arrive; the money should be returned directly to Qin Shiyue's card.

The two stood on the side of the road with car horns constantly entering their ears.

"Where are you going now?" Qin Shiyue placed on her sunglasses and was about to call her driver, "Would you like to go eat dinner together?"

Zheng Shuyi shook her head and said, "Sorry, I'm already eating with someone tonight."

Hearing that Zheng Shuyi's tone had a sense of joy in it, Qin Shiyue looked towards her.

The two's eyes met, and Zheng Shuyi raised her eyebrows, showing a meaningful smile.

"Oh! I get it!!"

Qin Shiyue suddenly realized and laughed, "No wonder you came out to buy new clothes."

Zheng Shuyi smiled and replied, "Smart."

Qin Shiyue gave her a thumbs up, "Awesome! Go! You can do this!"

——

She didn't expect herself to take so long in the mall. So after saying bye to Qin Shiyue, Zheng Shuyi quickly took a taxi to get home. The second she stepped off of the car, she saw Shi Yan's car approaching.

Zheng Shuyi glanced at several shopping bags in her hand, thought for a moment, and walked quickly towards her neighborhood.

She simply wanted to put all these shopping bags down first.

In addition, Zheng Shuyi just wore normal shoes for going shopping. She didn't think they look good enough, so she also wanted to go home and change into a pair of high heels.

But after just a few steps, the car behind her stopped.

"Zheng Shuyi."

Hearing him calmly calling her name, Zheng Shuyi subconsciously stopped and turned her head.

Shi Yan's car window lowered down, and from Zheng Shuyi's angle, she could only see half of his face. His meaningful eyes were looking at her.

"Get on."

"Ok."

With no other choice, Zheng Shuyi could only carry the bunch of shopping bags into the car.

When the paper bags were stuffed into the seat, there was a crazy amount of noise. Then, she placed them horizontally beside her feet.

Shi Yan glanced at her several times and frowned.

Business vehicles have never been piled up with these messy things.

It seemed a bit awkward.

Without realizing it, Zheng Shuyi straightened her hair while looking at the car window and didn't bother to ask Shi Yan where they were going.

Every once a while, Shi Yan would read some files while driving. Zheng Shuyi didn't disturb him as she just sat quietly on the side.

Half an hour later, the car drove into the suburbs, crossed the national highway, turned into an attraction site, drove beside a lake, and parked at the entrance of a Chinese-style garden.

This garden was partly open to the public and was the private property of the Cheng family. The environment was extremely calm and clean, a perfect place for many couples.

But today, the dinner hosted by the grandpa of the Cheng Family was not a formal business dinner, it was just a habit.

When the old man lost his child years ago, he hadn't had another child. After being lonely for too long, he started holding family dinners. Family, friends, and relatives all brought their children to come. Mr. Cheng loved to see the lively scenes of these children.

For more than ten years, this annual gathering still hasn't changed. The children have all grown up and were still used to attending this family dinner at the end of every year.

Unfortunately, Zheng Shuyi had no clue about this. As she followed Shi Yan into the grade, she felt that something seemed wrong.

The long halls and curvy paths spread throughout the garden. There was even a bridge and a small stream of water.

No matter how she looked, this didn't look like a place for a couple's quiet dining place.

Zheng Shuyi quickly walked up to Shi Yan until she was walking with him on his side.

"Is this where we'll be eating?"

Shi Yan was about to speak but paused when he turned his head to look at Zheng Shuyi.

His eyes swept over Zheng Shuyi's head then fell onto the face looking up towards him.

Without high heels, she suddenly seemed shorter. When she looked down at her, her face seemed even smaller.

Shi Yan suddenly whispered, "Why are you so short?"

Zheng Shuyi:?

If you don't want to answer, then don't answer. Why suddenly attack me?

"What's wrong with me being short? On the bus, they still charge me with the adult price."

"…"
