Chapter 12 Taking Her Shopping (Part 1)
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "No, I quite enjoy cooking."
Shen Mo treated her sincerely, and she wouldn't do nothing in return; how well they got along was mutual.
She couldn't take advantage of Shen Mo's good nature to bully him.
After touring the house, Shen Mo approached Jiang Ning and said, "Let's go to the department store to buy things. Feel free to buy anything you want."
Jiang Ning responded with an "okay".
The house already has basic furniture; all that's needed is to add some everyday household items, but even buying household items is a huge undertaking.
After locking the door and leaving the residential compound, the two got back into the car that had arrived.
When she arrived at the department store, Jiang Ning had a list in mind; she had already decided what she needed to buy.
As they approached the bustling shopping mall, Jiang Ning walked ahead, while Shen Mo followed slightly behind, reaching out to protect her.
He didn't actually hit Jiang Ning; he just raised his hand to shield himself from the people coming and going.
After entering the department store, I asked the security guards and headed straight for the household goods section.
Jiang Ning bought quite a lot of pots, pans, towels, and toiletries.
To live a good life, daily necessities are essential.
After buying a bunch of things, all paid for by Shen Mo, she and Shen Mo were already too full to carry anymore.
However, she was carrying light items, while Shen Mo was carrying heavier items like pots and pans.
After buying these things, my daily life is pretty much set.
They were carrying loads of things, and after loading them into the car, Jiang Ning was about to open the passenger door when her wrist was suddenly grabbed.
A man's voice sounded from behind, "Wait."
Jiang Ning turned her head and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"I'll take you to buy some clothes and skincare products. A young lady like you can't lack these things." Shen Mo withdrew his hand when she turned to look at him. The warmth of his hand made him clench it tightly, but his face remained expressionless.
His younger sister, who lives in the countryside, often asks him to buy these things and send them to her. She has also explained to him that girls like to wear pretty clothes and that skincare products can make their skin fair and tender.
Jiang Ning is very fair-skinned, and he doesn't want to see her suffer if she stays with him.
Jiang Ning only wanted to buy some everyday necessities today; she planned to buy clothes and such separately later when she had more time.
Women are more interested in shopping, while for men, asking them to go shopping is like asking them to die.
Why is this man different from what she expected?
But how would a grown man like him know about skincare products and such?
Did he have another girl he liked before?
She shook off these thoughts; whether they existed or not, they were none of her business.
Jiang Ning felt inexplicably restless. Since Shen Mo had brought it up, she decided to go and take a look.
She had long disliked the rustic and unfashionable clothes she was wearing.
Back at the department store, Shen Mo led Jiang Ning directly to the third floor.
Seeing how skilled he was, Jiang Ning didn't ask the security guard.
It's obvious that he's quite familiar with this area.
The third floor is dedicated to clothing stores, with different brands of clothes inside and out, enough to dazzle anyone.
Shopping is a girl's nature, and Jiang Ning instantly forgot her annoyance when she saw the wide variety of clothes.
After wandering around the third floor, I finally settled on a women's clothing counter.
The sales clerk was attending to customers, and out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Jiang Ning's unfashionable attire but didn't come over to serve her.
Jiang Ning went into the store, while Shen Mo stood at the cashier and didn't follow her in. Inside, there were many women buying and trying on clothes, and it wouldn't be appropriate for a grown man like him to go in.
After looking around, Jiang Ning quickly selected two outfits. When she arrived at the fitting room, she saw a women's belt hanging on the rack and picked one that matched the color of her dress.
Jiang Ning went in after the previous customer had tried on the clothes and left.
Once inside the fitting room, she took off her clothes, put on a dress, and then tied the belt around her waist.
After thinking for a moment, she let her two braids loose and draped them behind her.
After changing her clothes, Jiang Ning came out and twirled in front of the mirror.
Yes, she was very satisfied.
She quickly went in and changed into a second outfit, which consisted of a floral shirt and a red fishtail skirt.
Jiang Ning has a great figure, and the clothes she wears make the other customers who are still choosing their clothes stand out.
In the end, everyone just stared blankly as she picked out clothes.
Jiang Ning selected a few more outfits and was about to try them on when...
The sales clerk suddenly stopped her, "Sir, if you can't buy that many, don't keep trying them on. We still need to sell clothes. How can we sell them if they get dirty?"
Jiang Ning: "?"
Don't you always try clothes on before buying them? How can she know which ones suit her and which ones don't if she doesn't try them on?
At this moment, the sales clerks already regarded Jiang Ning as the kind of person who only tries on clothes but doesn't buy them. They had seen many people who were stingy when buying clothes and simply didn't believe that Jiang Ning would buy so many clothes.
Jiang Ning was just there to buy clothes and didn't want to argue. Sure enough, no matter the era, there are always people who treat others differently based on their status.
Jiang Ning thought for a moment, "Please wrap up the dress I tried on first."
When she said that, she meant she was sure she wanted to buy it.
Sure enough, the sales clerk's expression immediately softened, "Okay, I'll wrap it up for you right away."
Jiang Ning went to try on other clothes. The sales clerk packed the clothes and placed them on the cashier, waiting for Jiang Ning to come out of the other clothes. Suddenly, a hand holding money and bills was handed over.
The sales clerk looked up and paused for a moment when she saw Shen Mo. "These are the clothes my wife chose. Please pay."
The man in front of her was very imposing; his deep, eagle-like eyes made her feel inexplicably suffocated.
Shen Mo also saw that the sales clerk had made things difficult for Jiang Ning earlier.
His face was expressionless, and his tone was indifferent. "She tries on one item, then buys one."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Ning came out in another set of clothes. It seemed that all the clothes she tried on were tailor-made for her.
Shen Mo's Adam's apple bobbed, and his dark eyes faintly gleamed with a burning intensity.
There was only one thought in my mind.
Buy her lots of pretty clothes to wear.
"Okay, okay."
The saleswoman swallowed hard and took the money from his hand.
