He stood there without coming over quickly, what was he doing?
Wen Xian slightly narrowed her eyes and tugged at the corner of her lips. When she walked back, she purposely said, “What’s wrong, Captain Lu, are you afraid that I’ll buy something too expensive and your wallet won’t be able to handle it? Don’t worry, I’ll just pick something cheaper.”
With those words, Lu Xiao: “…”
His throat choked up, his temples throbbed, he took a deep breath, and held his forehead, “Stop talking nonsense, just pick.”
Who told her to pick the cheaper ones? Just pick whatever she wanted, all this nonsense!
However, Wen Xian raised an eyebrow towards him, her eyes hinting in the direction of the lingerie store: “Well, what are we waiting for, Captain Lu? Let’s go. Or do you expect me to pay?”
Despite being worth nine figures, she was now haggling like an old lady in a vegetable market.
Under her burning gaze, Lu Xiao took another deep breath and looked in the direction of the lingerie store.
The next second, he walked over with long strides.
Wen Xian followed behind him, watching his retreating figure with the corners of her mouth curving up, barely holding back her laughter.
She wanted him to accompany her personally as she picked out lingerie!
Lu Xiao reached the entrance of the lingerie store and halted.
The store was full of dazzling lingerie of all kinds—cotton, lace, silk—but Lu Xiao didn’t give it a glance.
“Good day, sir, are you here to buy lingerie for your girlfriend or wife…?”
A sales associate approached, scanning the tall, stiff, and frosty-looking man who hesitated to enter, her face breaking into a knowing smile.
Lu Xiao didn’t make a sound but quickly glanced Wen Xian’s way before saying coolly, “She’s picking.”
He sounded calm, but when Wen Xian approached, she could see that his ears were faintly red and his gaze somewhat evasive.
She quickly walked up to him, took his arm in hers, and beamed a sweet smile, “Let’s go, my dear.”
Seeing the beautiful woman in sunglasses, the sales associate’s face lit up with envy, “Miss, your husband is so good to you, even accompanying you to buy lingerie. My man has never done that.”
At that, Lu Xiao: “…”
His body tensed, allowing her to lead him by the arm into the store, his expression particularly subtle.
He moved his lips as if to say something but then suddenly felt a pinch on his arm. Wen Xian waved her hand dismissing it and continued with a cheerful voice:
“Oh, that’s nothing. My husband’s the same. Today, I just had a bad hand and had to drag him along to help me carry things.”
When the sales associate heard that the two were indeed a couple, her smile deepened, “Well, then take your time looking around, and if you have any questions, just ask me.”
She added before leaving, “Ah, your husband’s so lucky to have married such a beautiful woman like you, who looks just like the big star Wen Xian, haha, really enviable!”
Upon hearing this, Wen Xian immediately lowered her head, her smile tinged with shyness.
He had completely run out of responses.
After the sales associate had left, Lu Xiao looked around restlessly, as if he had nowhere to set his gaze, “Why did you call me that?”
“Hm?” Wen Xian blinked and started to smile, “How did I call you?”
Lu Xiao withdrew his arm from hers, his face serious, his fist loosely clenched by his lips as he coughed heavily, “Don’t call me that carelessly, I’m not married yet.”
