After hearing what Xia Qingning said, Lu Jingzhe's eyes moved slightly, and the corners of his lips rose slightly, forming an arc.

Somehow, this name sounds particularly pleasant.

Looking at Xiao Jin next to him, his face instantly became extremely embarrassed after hearing these words.

When she was talking to her colleague just now, she did not avoid the woman in front of her at all. Who would have thought that she was actually that man's wife!

All those self-conceited, self-righteous, and overestimating words had become a huge joke at this moment. Her face had turned red with embarrassment, and she was completely enveloped by the shame of self-humiliation. She wished she could disappear right where she was.

Xia Qingning looked at the salesperson named Xiao Jin and had no intention of letting the matter go. She just smiled lightly and deliberately mentioned what she had said:

"I just found out that you helped me choose those dresses he gave me last time. So, I have to thank you for choosing so many beautiful dresses."

The woman in front of him clearly heard what he said. Now she was not angry or swearing, and she even said she wanted to thank him. Xiao Jin felt relieved all of a sudden. He thought she was a weak person with no temper who was easy to bully. He calmed down and said calmly:

"You're welcome. It's okay. We are here to serve the guests."

But just as she finished speaking, she saw the smiling woman opposite her suddenly change the subject and look at her seriously and say:

"But he bought so many skirts not to attract your attention, but because he didn't know which one I liked, which made you misunderstand and feel excited for several days. It's really... hard for you."

This sentence seemed to be very polite on the surface, but it ruthlessly tore off her fig leaf and told everyone clearly that she had been imagining and being sentimental for so many days.

"Pfft..."

After hearing Xia Qingning's words, and thinking of what Xiao Jin had boasted about in front of them these days, a young salesperson next to them couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The sales assistants around him all looked at Xiao Jin at the same time, and in addition to the interest in watching the show, there was also mockery in their eyes.

Xiao Jin's face turned red again. She didn't expect that this woman was actually pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. Not only did she expose her ugly face in public, but she also behaved very politely. She wanted to argue but couldn't find the words to say.

Even though she was humiliated in public, you couldn't get angry with her. After all, she was the one who said those words, and she behaved in a calm, polite and courteous manner.

She was so embarrassed this time that she wished she could find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

After listening to Xia Qingning's words, Lu Jingzhe seemed to understand something. It turned out that she was asserting her sovereignty not because she cared about her identity, but just wanted to teach the waitress a lesson.

The word "wife" just now suddenly didn't sound so sweet anymore.

At this moment, the short-haired lady who sold scraps of cloth to Xia Qingning last time and was particularly friendly recognized her. She looked at her skirt a few more times and was surprised to find that such a beautiful skirt was actually made of stitched cloth. She hurriedly came up and asked:

"Girl, is this the skirt you made yourself with the cloth you bought last time?"

Xia Qingning also recognized this elder sister and answered openly:

"um, yes."

"It's really beautiful. You have such a skillful hand." The elder sister praised sincerely.

The people around and the salesperson also looked over. They never thought that those scraps of cloth could be made into such beautiful clothes.

The woman named Xiao Jin was even more surprised. She just thought that the clothes she was wearing were unique and beautiful, and she never expected that they were made of those inconspicuous scraps of cloth.

I originally thought that she bought the rags because she was poor, but now I realize that the clown is actually myself.

"Are you buying cloth today?" the eldest sister asked with a smile.

"Let's not buy anything today." Xia Qingning replied politely, "Let's buy some ready-made clothes as gifts."

"Then you choose, I'll help you carry it." The enthusiastic elder sister said, then looked at Lu Jingzhe beside her, smiled and said to Xia Qingning:

"So your husband is an officer. He's so handsome!"

Lu Jingzhe was a very stable person. He did not show any pride or smugness when being praised like that. Instead, Xia Qingning next to him smiled a little embarrassedly.

After the little episode, the two began to do the real thing they came here for - choosing clothes. After asking Lu Jingzhe a lot of questions and without any particularly useful information, Xia Qingning chose two outfits based on her own feelings, one set of tops and one dress. Both were relatively simple, yet elegant and decent styles.

After making the selection, the two chose two sets of children's clothes in the children's clothing area. Considering that children grow quickly, they chose slightly longer ones so that they can wear them this year and can also wear them next year.

Lu Jingzhe just paid the bill throughout the whole process, and he thought everything his "wife" chose was good.

After the waiter named Xiao Jin had just been embarrassed, he suddenly realized his own mistake and stayed away from them, never getting close to the two men again.

After buying the clothes, the two discussed and decided not to buy shoes, because shoes are not like clothes, they cannot be worn if they are a little bigger or a little smaller.

After leaving the clothing area, the two went to the grocery area and bought some candies.

Xia Qingning originally wanted to buy some fruit, but Lu Jingzhe said no.

Seeing that he refused so quickly, Xia Qingning didn't insist any more.

They had almost finished buying everything. When Xia Qingning was going downstairs, she looked at Lu Jingzhe and asked casually:

"what time is it now?"

Lu Jingzhe raised his hand and looked down at the watch on his wrist. After a moment, he replied in a deep voice:

"A quarter past ten."

"Oh." Xia Qingning responded, and then prepared to walk out of the department store.

"Wait." Lu Jingzhe suddenly called her.

Xia Qingning thought he had forgotten to buy something, so she looked at him puzzledly and asked:

"what happened?"

Lu Jingzhe glanced around and his eyes fell on the watch counter. Without saying a word, he walked over.

When Xia Qingning saw him leaving, she was a little confused and hurriedly followed him.

He was tall and had long legs. He reached the counter in a few steps. He stopped to look at the watches displayed in the glass cabinet. They were all men's watches with larger dials. He moved to the other side. The watches here were obviously much more delicate and small. They were obviously worn by women. He turned to look at Xia Qingning who was standing next to him and greeted her in a deep voice:

"come over."

Xia Qingning walked over and heard him say to her:

"Pick one you like."
