The mall manager received advance notice and had people prepare for closing time.
Zhou Ji took her to buy two tea sets. The packaged gift boxes were taken to the car by the accompanying bodyguards. The assistant handed the car keys to the boss and disappeared without a trace.
After buying the tea set, Zhou Ji glanced at the person beside him who wasn't really paying attention to him, paused slightly, and then casually asked, "Want to browse around some more?"
Jiang Yue pursed her lips, her mind still filled with thoughts of punishing him with passive-aggressive tactics.
She remained silent, neither agreeing nor refusing.
She's been spending a lot of time online lately when she's feeling down, following many relationship bloggers and learning a lot of dating tips for men.
Neither taking initiative nor refusing, nor taking responsibility.
Zhou Ji didn't find her cold face and silence unbearable at all; on the contrary, he found her puffed-up appearance vivid and endearing.
The man had one hand in his pocket, his exquisitely tailored suit highlighting his superior physique. His refined features gave him an unapproachable, cold air when he was expressionless. He added a few words: "I'll pay."
Jiang Yue shamefully fell in love.
She retorted sharply, "Of course you're paying! Do you expect me to pay for this?"
He himself admitted that he was trying to please her.
In that case, you have to adopt the attitude you would use to please someone.
She's not someone who's easily fooled.
Although.
She's not in a good mood right now.
Ultimately, she and Zhou Ji had a relationship where neither owed the other anything.
It's just that because of the complexity of love, the kind that brings both joy and sorrow, it's easy to develop a lingering sense of melancholy.
In truth, both she and he were short-lived.
She died at the age of sixteen.
Zhou Ji didn't seem to be much older than her when he died.
They have always been tormented by fate.
"Could you spend a little bit of money on me? It doesn't have to be much."
"Can't."
Not even a little bit?
"No, that won't work."
The man sighed and said, "Fine, if it doesn't work out, then forget it."
Jiang Yue didn't stand on ceremony with Zhou Ji either. Girls are naturally powerless against beautiful things, and this season's new dresses included some rare and special designs.
The shop assistant was extremely friendly, serving tea and water and speaking softly: "Ms. Jiang, if you like it, you can try it."
"This is the fitting room."
Jiang Yue glanced at the dresses she had chosen and asked, "How much?"
The sales clerk smiled and said a price that would be astronomical for ordinary people: "There's only one of these dresses in the world, and all the diamonds on the skirt are hand-sewn."
Jiang Yue was already tempted when she heard the price.
You should know that she doesn't buy cheap things.
Especially since Zhou Ji has already volunteered to be the one paying the bill today, it would be truly foolish for her to still be thinking about saving him money.
You have to spend his money lavishly.
He spent so much money it hurt him.
However, Jiang Yue also knew that a few million was nothing to Zhou Ji, and he could spend it in the blink of an eye.
The shop assistant was so kind that she felt embarrassed to refuse.
Jiang Yue entered the fitting room.
Backless, fitted long dress.
It outlines the woman's slender and shapely figure.
She looks very thin, but all her weight is in the right places.
Pulling back the fitting room curtain, Jiang Yue walked to the mirror in her high heels. The woman in the mirror was absolutely stunning. She blinked, and the person in the mirror blinked back.
Her skin was as white as snow, and her eyes sparkled.
Her snow-white collarbones were very prominent.
"Miss Jiang, it looks beautiful." The shop assistant's words were absolutely sincere, not just flattery.
She even had more outrageous things she didn't say.
She had met so many guests, most of whom were rich and good-looking, but it was rare to see someone as stunningly beautiful as Miss Jiang.
Even though Jiang Yue heard people praise her beauty all the time, her mood would still improve every time she heard it.
She turned around and saw Zhou Ji sitting on the sofa with his long legs crossed, his dark eyes fixed on her, his gaze making her feel uneasy.
It was as if he was devouring her with his eyes.
A possessiveness, barely restrained yet deeply hidden in the depths of his eyes.
The man stood up, his tall stature exuding a sense of oppression, his cold and stern demeanor suffocating. He scanned her entire body, lingered for a moment, and then said to the shop assistant, "Wrap up those other items as well."
The clerk took the card from the man and immediately went to pay the bill.
Jiang Yue felt uncomfortable under his gaze, as if he were taking liberties with her. Zhou Ji stepped forward, his eyes dark, and said sincerely, "Very beautiful."
Jiang Yue gave a dry "uh-huh".
I don't know why.
She felt that Zhou Ji's gaze made her feel dangerous.
By the time she came to her senses, he had already grabbed her wrist.
Jiang Yue pulled her hand away. Her willful nature was always on full display in front of Zhou Ji. She said, "I'm too lazy to change."
Sure enough, the fingers gripping her wrist suddenly tightened, but in an instant, the man's expression looked no different from usual.
He nodded: "That works too."
Then, he casually said, "I'll help you take it off when we get back."
Jiang Yue was a little annoyed: "I'm still giving you the cold shoulder, and I won't go back with you."
Zhou Ji seemed to have heard clearly, nodded, and then naturally said, "This doesn't conflict with me helping you take off your clothes."
The clerk presented the bill to the two of them, along with the gold card.
She only realized that this customer was the owner of their mall when she saw his name while checking out.
The entire shopping mall belongs to him.
He doesn't need to pay anymore.
However, the shop assistant didn't ask any further questions; perhaps this is just a hobby for wealthy people.
Jiang Yue's biggest regret was not giving him the silent treatment the whole time today.
Zhou Ji was used to her silence. He held her hand and asked patiently, "Do you still want to buy anything?"
She remained silent.
Zhou Ji smiled at her and said, "Can you buy me a wallet?"
Jiang Yue said, "Oh, I don't have any money."
Zhou Ji thought for a moment and said, "It's okay, I can lend it to you."
Even when Jiang Yue is angry, she's not annoying. Even when she's fuming, she's not unreasonable. Her scratches are like a kitten's, they don't hurt, they just tickle.
"Go find another rich woman to buy it for you."
Zhou Ji pondered for a moment, then said seriously, "It won't work. My wife is very strict, has a bad temper, gets jealous easily, and would want to kill me. Besides, she's very difficult to appease."
