After being reborn, I became the big boss's darling.
Chapter 19 Thank you, this is my wife
"What do your uncle and aunt usually like?" He glanced around and saw that this floor was full of clothes, bags, cosmetics, and the like. He didn't know how to choose for a moment.
"Hmm... My dad doesn't have many hobbies, he just likes to drink tea. My mom loves collecting cheongsams, and there's even a room in the house dedicated to them. But you don't need to think too much about it. They like you so much, I reckon they'd be happy with anything you give them, as long as you can go back home."
"That's true, my aunt and uncle really like me." As he said this, Shen Ceyan's voice unconsciously carried a hint of pride.
“Shameless,” Ji Nianci retorted with a laugh.
Just then, Ji Nianci was suddenly drawn to a clothing store next door: "Shen Ceyan, look! That dress hanging in the window is so pretty!" she said, pulling him into the store.
As soon as the two entered, the sales assistant greeted them with a smile.
"Miss, is this dress to your liking? It's a limited edition from our store. The color of this dress really complements your skin tone. Look how fair-skinned you are, it will definitely look great on you."
Ci was praised so much that she blushed a little.
It was a bohemian-style long skirt, its azure color like the sea, its layered design resembling rolling waves, giving a romantic and free feeling. Ji Nianci fell in love with this skirt at first sight.
"Buy it if you like it." Shen Ceyan wasn't really good at distinguishing between the beauty and ugliness of these clothes, but he felt that no matter what kind of clothes his girl wore, they would look good.
After saying that, he took out his wallet to pay by card.
The salesperson's smile widened as he saw the man pull out a black card, and he immediately went over to serve him.
"Sir, you are so good to your girlfriend."
"Thank you, this is my wife."
Ci smiled shyly in remembrance.
"Oh, really? My bad for not seeing things properly, you two really do look like a married couple. Take care, welcome to visit again, and I wish you a happy life."
After the two left the store, Jinianci stepped forward and took his hand, saying in a fawning tone, "Honey, you look the most handsome when you swipe your card."
Shen Ceyan smiled helplessly. He finally understood. This girl would call him "husband" when she was happy, but would call him by his full name when she had nothing to do.
Soon after, Ci Jici's attention was drawn to another store.
……
Two hours later, Ci finally ended the battle, reaping a great harvest.
At first, Shen Ceyan followed behind her, swiping her card and carrying her things. But as Ci Jinian bought more and more, the two of them couldn't carry it all anymore, so they simply left an address and asked someone to deliver everything to their home.
It seemed that only then did Ci remember something she had forgotten.
"Oh right, we came here to pick out gifts for our parents, why did we only buy things for myself?"
"Hmm, you've finally decided to remember." Shen Ceyan glanced at her and spoke in a low voice.
"You just watched me buy this, why didn't you remind me?"
Shen Ceyan: "..."
Ji Nianci hurriedly pulled Shen Ceyan away to pick out gifts.
Shen Ceyan led her to a teahouse. Ji Nianci didn't know anything about tea, so she just wandered around inside. Shen Ceyan picked out two sets of fine teaware and some tea leaves, and then also picked out some antiques and calligraphy.
The two then went to a cheongsam shop. Shen Ceyan didn't know much about these things, so Ji Nianci picked out a few that she thought would suit her mother, and then selected a few pieces of high-quality fabric.
Ji Nianci originally only planned to buy a few gifts and then go back, but she didn't expect that in the end, Shen Ceyan would choose more gifts than the clothes and bags she bought today. It can be said that he covered a little bit of every category.
Ji Nianci watched the staff carrying things back and forth, feeling somewhat speechless.
"Shen Ceyan, why are you picking out so many?"
"...Mind your own business."
In memory of Ci: "..."
As soon as the two got into the car, Ji Nianci's stomach started growling.
Shen Ceyan looked at her, a faint smile on his lips: "Hungry? What would you like to eat?"
After thinking for a moment, Ci Ji replied, "Hot pot."
"No." Shen Ceyan refused without hesitation: "Your injury hasn't healed, you can't eat spicy food."
"Oh, then let's order a non-spicy broth. I don't care, I just want hot pot." Ji Nianci turned to the side, grabbed his arm, and swayed it from side to side, starting to whine.
Shen Ceyan was exasperated by her and had no choice but to give in: "Eat, eat, eat, I give up. Remember, no spicy food."
Seeing that he agreed, Ji Nianci was happy. She let go of his hand and sat back down in her original seat: "Then let's go quickly. I know a really good hot pot restaurant."
When the two arrived, it was lunchtime, and the restaurant was bustling with people.
A waiter approached them: "Hello, are you two?"
Ci nodded in remembrance.
Shen Ceyan, who was standing to the side, suddenly spoke up: "Could you please get a private room?"
The waiter in front of him looked embarrassed: "I'm sorry, sir, our private rooms are currently full..."
Ji Nianci slapped his hand away and glared at him: "Why do two people need to book a room? You're making a fuss."
He then turned to the waiter in front of him with a smile and said, "It's okay, don't worry about him, we don't need to book a private room, just find us any seats."
Shen Ceyan: "..."
The waiter smiled and said, "Yes, miss, please come with me."
After the two sat down, Jinian Ci picked up the menu and began to order.
Sitting across from her, Shen Ceyan tapped the table with his hand, reminding her once again, "You can't order spicy food."
Ji Nianci sighed helplessly, "Oh, I know, I know, you've said it three times already."
While preparing the seasoning, Ji Nianci tried to sneak a spoonful of chili sauce when Shen Ceyan wasn't looking, but before her hand could even touch the seasoning spoon, it was stopped by a large hand.
"cannot……"
"Oh, okay, okay, no need to add it." Shen Ceyan had just opened her mouth when Ji Nianci interrupted her. She was speechless; this person really was watching her all the time.
"I thought you wouldn't be used to eating in a place like this, but I didn't expect you to adapt so quickly." Ji Nianci said with a smile as she watched him skillfully scald the bowls and chopsticks.
"Why aren't you used to it? Isn't it nice here? Do you think this is my first time in these places?" Shen Ceyan asked her in return.
"Isn't it?"
“During the two years I studied abroad, I didn’t ask my family for a single penny. They just left me there and didn’t care about me anymore, wanting me to be independent. Back then, I was working while studying to earn my tuition and living expenses. It was tough at first; I could endure places that were many times worse than this.” He answered casually, lightly glossing over the hardships of his life alone abroad.
