Chapter 195 Enthusiastic Praise
The aunt was still muttering, "The box looks big, but it's quite light."
Wen Xi was about to step forward to take it when Shang Chen spoke up first: "Let me do it."
His expression remained calm, showing no sign of anything amiss.
The aunt didn't think much of it and handed the box to Shang Chen.
Shang Chen said to Wen Xi, "I'm going upstairs to put some things down."
Wenxi tugged at his shirt: "Why did Mr. Zhang send something again?"
Wenxi didn't believe that it had nothing to do with Shang Chen.
Shang Chen calmly explained, "I ordered these from General Manager Zhang; we don't have enough in the drawer."
Wenxi: "..."
So it wasn't that Mr. Zhang was being charitable again, but rather that Shang Chen was specifically restocking.
Did you turn on some kind of switch for Shang Chen after you got drunk last night?
He's becoming increasingly 'unscrupulous' these days.
Or do couples eventually become shameless and shameless after getting married?
After breakfast, Assistant Wu came to pick them up.
The couple is taking wedding photos today.
Just as they got into the car, Shang Chen suddenly asked, "Is there an eyeglasses store nearby?"
The car fell into a deathly silence.
Wen Xi forced herself to remain calm: "What are you going to the glasses shop for?"
Shang Chen: "Buy eye drops."
He looked at Wenxi intently and said, "Use more eye drops, and your eyes will be brighter when you look at me in the future."
Wenxi: "..."
Shang Chen would be better off having amnesia after drinking.
He remembered everything I said to him last night.
This turned the tables on Wenxi.
Assistant Wu, being quite perceptive, asked, "Madam, would you like to go?"
Wenxi calmly replied, "No, let's go straight to the wedding dress shop."
She glanced at Shang Chen: "If we go to an eyeglasses store, it might take me a long time to choose one, and I'm afraid it will delay our wedding photos."
Threatened by his wife, Shang Chen obediently backed down, saying, "Then let's go to the wedding dress shop first."
Assistant Wu saw through everything and remained silent.
After choosing her wedding dress, Wenxi began her makeup and styling.
Makeup and styling take time, and Wenxi was worried that Shangchen would have to wait a long time.
Who knew that when he turned around, he suddenly had a camera in his hand.
Wenxi: "...When did you bring your camera?"
Shang Chen guessed what Wen Xi wanted to ask: "Before leaving the house, I asked the aunt to put it in the trunk."
"Focus on your makeup." Shang Chen said calmly, "I'll start working on it first, and call me if you need anything."
Wenxi: "Okay."
She was worried that Shang Chen would be bored, but Shang Chen had already taken the instruction manual and started studying it.
Less than half an hour into her makeup session, the manager suddenly came over: "Mrs. Shang, there are quite a few customers coming to the store today, and the dressing rooms are not enough. A lady would like to borrow a spot. Would you be willing?"
This bridal shop is divided into a regular makeup area and a VIP makeup room.
Shang Chen booked the best VIP dressing room in the store, which has a lot of private space.
Don't even mention borrowing a spot; you could bring five more people in to get their makeup done without any problem.
Wen Xi glanced at the manager and asked casually, "Has this happened before?"
Manager: "This has happened once or twice before, it's just that we have too many customers making appointments..."
"Yeah?"
Under Wen Xi's indifferent gaze, the manager forced himself to explain.
"There was a problem with the wedding dress they chose, so they came to the store to choose a new one at the last minute. The wedding is in a few days, so it's a bit rushed."
Wenxi thought for a moment and said, "You can ask my husband for his opinion."
"If he agrees, I have no objection."
The manager breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, then I'll go ask Mr. Shang."
Under normal circumstances, Wenxi would not consider the manager's suggestion.
Because there were too many loopholes in her statement.
She also didn't want to give up her private space to others.
But Wenxi thought about how many 'surprises' Shang Chen had prepared recently, so she took a step back.
A short while later, the manager brought news: "President Shang has agreed."
Wenxi had a better idea of what was going on.
Then, a woman surnamed Lu, wearing a wedding dress, pushed open the door and came in.
As soon as she entered, she greeted Wen Xi warmly, staring at her for a few moments: "You must be Attorney Wen?!"
Wenxi: "Who are you?"
"I've heard so much about you!" Ms. Lu said with a smile. "You don't know me? My surname is Lu... I've seen the video of you kicking the thug away. It was so cool!"
Wenxi politely replied, "Thank you for the compliment."
As soon as Ms. Lu sat down, she kept turning back to look at Wenxi: "May I take some pictures of you? You are so beautiful!"
"The video wasn't clear enough back then, so it didn't capture your beauty."
Wenxi: "..."
This acting is a bit exaggerated.
Just then, Shang Chen walked in.
Ms. Lu asked, "Is this your husband?"
Wen Xi glanced at Shang Chen, "He's my husband."
She had absolutely no idea what Shang Chen was up to this time.
Ms. Lu: "Attorney Wen, your husband is so handsome too. The two of you look like a perfect match, completely different from what's circulating online!"
Wenxi smiled and said, "It's all just rumors online."
“Yes, the internet says your husband is old, ugly, and bald…” Ms. Lu looked Shang Chen up and down: “Seeing him in person, I realized that he doesn’t match up at all.”
Wen Xi glanced at Shang Chen in the mirror and calmly said, "This is probably what the public will think."
"What public opinion? I think those people online are just jealous!"
Ms. Lu took a few photos of Wen Xi with her phone: "Lawyer Wen, you and your husband are a perfect match, a match made in heaven..."
Wenxi blushed and said, "You flatter me."
Did Shang Chen specifically pay someone to flatter him?
Just then, Shang Chen placed a cup of rose tea in front of Wen Xi: "Want some water?"
Wenxi: "I just put on lipstick, it will rub off if I drink it."
Shang Chen: "I'll go find a straw."
He put down the water glass, went to find a straw, and then fed Wenxi a glass of water.
While waiting for the photos to be taken, Wenxi took his arm and said, "Mr. Shang, aren't you going to confess?"
Shang Chen remained calm, feigning ignorance: "Explain what?"
Wenxi: "That Ms. Lu, she wouldn't happen to be the straight man you hired, would she?"
Has Shang Chen recently developed a liking for being praised?
Shang Chen suddenly bent down to straighten Wen Xi's skirt, and when he stood up, he lightly kissed her cheek: "I don't know her, you can't wrong me."
Wen Xi looked at Shang Chen in surprise: "..."
Shang Chen is restrained and composed, and cares a lot about his reputation.
He rarely showed any affection towards her in front of outsiders.
The makeup and photography teams are still there.
In front of everyone, he just kissed her like that?
Shang Chen seemed to see what Wen Xi was thinking and calmly said, "I wanted to kiss you, so I did."
Wenxi: "I don't believe it."
Shang Chen thought for a moment, then lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips.
Wenxi's hand, clad in a silk glove, rested on his shoulder, offering a slight resistance: "With so many people watching... I'll believe you, okay?"
With so many people watching, Wenxi's heart wasn't that strong.
Shang Chen stood up straight, his posture upright, and his eyes were filled with satisfaction.
