Chapter 106: She is in my eyes and heart
Lu Xingchen didn't expect him to catch up, so he looked at him and said again: "I should be quick."
Li Zhen asked back: "Do you know what my mother likes?"
I really don't know about this. Is he following here to help her with some advice?
"Mr. Li, do you have any good suggestions?"
"What were you planning to spend half an hour buying?"
"jewelry."
"Then you'll probably have to see me many more times."
After hearing this, Lu Xingchen stopped and asked in confusion: "Why?"
Li Zhen took two steps forward and pressed the elevator up button, then turned around and looked at her again. "My mother thinks that if she lets you spend money, she will double the gift in return. Unless you come to my house often, I am most likely to be the porter."
Then she had to choose the gift carefully. Lu Xingchen immediately chose what she thought was the best option. "Since we are here, I would like to trouble Mr. Li to help me make a decision."
He didn't expect her to ask him for help so easily. The elevator door just opened, and Li Zhen readily agreed: "Let's go."
Lu Xingchen originally thought that with a son like him, it would take less than half an hour to prepare a gift for his mother.
Unexpectedly, Li Zhen took her to many stores to look at many things, but ended up rejecting them all as inappropriate or not good. The two of them spent an hour shopping and didn't buy anything.
Lu Xingchen didn't doubt that he didn't know what his mother liked, she suspected that he was deliberately making fun of her.
He took her into another store and asked her to come over and show him a silk scarf in his hand. She looked at it carefully and thought the quality and pattern were both good. She asked very pertinently, "I think it's OK. Do you like it, Auntie?"
He looked at the scarf again in front of her and said, "I like it, but isn't the color a bit inappropriate?"
This man started to be picky again, and Lu Xingchen watched him use the same old trick again.
As expected, Li Zhen put the scarf back and said, "How about we look at something else?"
"No need." Lu Xingchen answered him decisively, "I decided to buy jewelry as a gift."
Too lazy to waste time with him any longer, Lu Xingchen turned around and left.
Knowing that he had touched her bottom line, Li Zhen smiled and reached out to hold her arm and said, "You have no patience at all. The scarf is very good. I just asked you to choose a new color."
Is he sure he's not going to the next store? Lu Xingchen glared at him and asked distrustfully, "Are you sure Auntie likes scarves?"
"She'll wear it when it's cold anyway, and when she goes out to take pictures she'll either be draped over it or holding it up."
He spoke seriously, but Lu Xingchen's mind was already filled with countless photos of mothers and even young people wearing or holding silk scarves, and he couldn't help laughing.
Li Zhen knew what made her laugh, and he continued in a good mood, "Yesterday I told my aunt at home that I wanted to go out to enjoy the flowers when the weather got warmer, and I also wanted to bring a silk scarf to take pictures."
Unable to hold back his laughter, Lu Xingchen quickly walked back to pick out a scarf.
Even though she avoided him, Li Zhen could still see from the side that her eyebrows and mouth were smiling. He was reluctant to ruin this beautiful moment, so he just stood there and watched quietly, and his eyes and heart were filled with her, all of her.
Lu Xingchen finally selected two silk scarves. She picked one up and asked Li Zhen seriously, "How about this one?"
Li Zhen was so nice at this time, "You have a good eye, it looks good."
Lu Xingchen picked up another one, "What about this one?"
He was not picky at all, "I like this too."
Hearing this, Lu Xingchen turned to the clerk and said, "Please pack both for me. Please pack them separately. They are both gifts for our elders."
The clerk replied enthusiastically: "Then I will help you choose a simple and elegant gift box."
"Thank you."
The clerk took the scarf to the front desk, and Li Zhen walked to Lu Xingchen's side, "Why buy two?"
Lu Xingchen couldn't help but smile a little, and said calmly, "You can't let your aunt take pictures without a scarf."
Li Zhen also laughed when he heard it. Thinking about Lu Xingchen's thoughtful intentions, he felt that the person in front of him was so good to him.
Lu Xingchen naturally had no idea of his fantasies, so he just pretended not to notice that he smiled abnormally for the umpteenth time today, and went to the front desk to pay the bill.
The cashier politely said, "Hello, the total is one thousand nine hundred and sixty dollars."
It was less than 2,000 yuan, so Mr. Li was saving her money. After Lu Xingchen paid the bill, she took two bags and said to Li Zhen, "Let's go back."
Li Zhen tried to take the paper bag from her hand, and Lu Xingchen looked at him with strange eyes.
He said, "Sooner or later, I will take it."
Lu Xingchen felt that Li Zhen was acting abnormally today, but after thinking about it, he thought that maybe he wanted to restore his image after being drunk that night, or maybe because Wang Yaning had instructed him to do so, he was more or less lenient with her because of the matter between Li Wen and Li Shu.
Before, Lu Xingchen advised her mother to accept the reality. When Li Zhen's car entered the urban village according to the navigation of her address, Lu Xingchen actually felt a sense of disappointment.
If she were to be honest, she really didn't want Li Zhen to see her current situation, especially after he became the boss of Zhencheng Company, ranked at the top of the rich list, owned the most expensive property in Yuecheng, and could even own the most expensive property in any city if he wanted. She was even less likely to welcome him to her rental house in the village in the city.
No matter how much she didn't want to, she knew in her heart that these were the realities she had to face. He had seen her struggling to make a living, and because he knew how miserable she was, he told her clearly that he kept her in Zhencheng so that she could see how successful he was now.
At this moment, she clearly saw that Li Zhen was looking around at the narrow and messy environment, and there was no expression on his face.
Lu Xingchen straightened his back and said in a normal voice, "Drive another fifty meters forward and then park the car opposite Cao Guozhong's clinic."
Li Zhencai suddenly came to his senses and looked over, and replied, "Yeah."
Just as the car was about to drive past, a small truck drove over from the opposite direction. The road was already narrow, and someone had put up a temporary road sign. Li Zhen had to back up the car for a distance, with the car body almost touching the roadside stall of the fruit shop.
After the small truck passed, he drove his car over. Fortunately, the road to Cao Guozhong's clinic was relatively wide, so he successfully parked the car at the place Lu Xingchen said.
Lu Xingchen got out of the car first, but when she reached the back of the car, Li Zhen had already walked over, opened the trunk and asked, "Where do you live?"
"You can just put your stuff here."
"You can't carry all this stuff by yourself."
Did he mean to help her move upstairs? Lu Xingchen immediately rejected his idea, "It's okay, I can move it in two trips."
Li Zhen stood still for a moment, turned to look at Lu Xingchen and said calmly: "I'll help you move it up."
"No, I can do it myself."
Li Zhen looked into her eyes in silence for a long time, and said, "Have you seen me living in a rental house that is messier and older than this one? Now you dare not let me see you living in a place like this?"
Lu Xingchen couldn't help but pinch her fingers quickly, and she straightened her back again and said, "I am the mistress who seduced my boss to get promoted here, what else can I not dare show you? I live on the sixth floor at the back of this building, so please help me move my things, Mr. Li."
Seeing Li Zhen's face darken, she smiled and said, "But Mr. Li, be prepared, there is no elevator here."
