After five months of companionship, Bai Miaoqing had already regarded Shen Yu'an as a close friend, and naturally wanted her to find a good husband.
She would not interfere with Shen Yu'an's decision, but she could give her more choices.
So facing Bai Mingxi's expectant gaze, Bai Miaoqing also persuaded: "Since we are here, let's go in and take a look together."
Everyone had no choice but to follow Bai Mingxi in.
The guy who was watching the store knew Bai Mingxi.
Mrs. Bai was a frequent customer of this store and had asked him to help pick up things several times.
The clerk looked at the long line of people following Bai Mingxi, walked up to him and asked respectfully, "Mr. Bai, what do you want to buy today?"
Bai Mingxi looked over the heads of Shen Yu'an and Bai Miaoqing, as well as the other two little girls, Song Xiaoni and Hua Ling.
He said, "I'm buying some jewelry for my sister and...some friends. I'm going to show you the new models."
The waiter quickly brought up several newly made pieces of jewelry, all of which were the latest styles of hairpins and step-shaking ornaments.
Bai Miaoqing took the initiative to pull Shen Yuan to see it together.
In order to help Chen Yu'an buy things without being too abrupt, Bai Mingxi called Song Xiaoni and Hua Ling and said, "You guys can also take a look to see if there is anything you like."
Song Xiaoni took a look at the jewelry that looked very valuable and shook her head sensibly: "I don't need to buy it."
Hua Ling had already been fascinated by the sparkling jewelry that the waiter took out.
She pulled Song Xiaoni, Shen Yu'an and Bai Miaoqing, who were about to retreat to the back, together to watch.
Bai Miaoqing chose one she liked, and then let Shen Yuan choose.
"Ean'an, you can choose one too."
Shen Yu'an actually saw one that he liked, which was a simple wooden fork with only a auspicious cloud carved on it.
Shen Yu'an took it in his hand. The wood was very heavy and had a fragrant smell.
Shen Yuan said: "I'll take this."
The waiter next to him said, "You have a good eye, girl. Although this wooden fork looks simple, it is made of top-grade agarwood. Even the carving on it was done by a master."
Shen Yu'an responded indifferently.
Hua Ling was so dazzled by the choices, but in the end she still picked a piece of silver jewelry.
She prefers silver to gold or other jewelry made of beads.
Only Song Xiaoni had nothing in her hands.
Hua Ling gave her a strange look and asked, "Sister Xiaoni, why didn't you choose anything?"
Song Xiaoni was a little embarrassed, and said in a voice as small as a mosquito: "I...I don't like these, so I won't choose them."
Shen Yu'an was close to her, so he naturally heard her voice.
She looked up at Song Xiaoni's timid expression, rubbed her head and said, "Choose one you like and I'll give it to you."
Song Xiaoni quickly refused: "No, cousin An'an, I don't need these things."
She is now separated from her family and relies on her aunt and uncle for food, clothing and shelter. She cannot trouble them anymore.
Shen Yu'an persuaded her for a while, and Song heard the noise and came over.
Once you know the reason, let her take one.
In the end, Song Xiaoni picked up the least noticeable one among all the accessories.
Bai Mingxi saw that they had all chosen their jewelry, asked the waiter to pack them up, and wanted to pay.
However, Shen Yu'an was quicker and paid for the four things they took.
He took back the silver that the waiter had just received and wanted to return it to Shen Yu'an.
Bai Mingxi looked at Shen Yu'an who had already paid, and said hesitantly: "Miss Shen, this... this is not reasonable. I agreed that it was a gift from me to you."
Shen Yuan said directly: "Mr. Bai, you can't accept rewards without merit, and we are not so poor that we can't even afford to buy a few pieces of jewelry."
Bai Mingxi's expression changed unpredictably, trying to persuade Shen Yu'an.
But Shen Yu'an didn't want to listen to him wasting time on this matter.
She explained one last time: "If Mr. Bai really wants to pay, he only needs to pay Miaoqing's share. As for the three of us, we have only known you for one day, so there is no need to trouble Mr. Bai."
Bai Mingxi had never met a girl who spoke so bluntly, and for a moment he didn't know how to refute her.
Just when he was about to say something else, an inopportune voice came.
