Chapter 97 Choosing New Year's Goods
Cheng Meifang hurriedly declined. Her health had been getting worse recently. She had been thinking about seeing Ruan Chuxia for medical treatment in a few days. If she accepted these things now, how would she have the nerve to ask for help in the future?
But how could Ruan Chuxia know what she was thinking?
He had no idea what was going on in her mind at that moment.
Thinking she was being polite, he insisted on stuffing it into her hands: "Take it. It's almost Chinese New Year. Just think of it as a snack for the children."
His attitude was sincere and could not be refused.
Xiao Zhiyu also said beside him: "We are so close to my sister-in-law, so don't be polite, just take it."
The words are full of sincerity and make people feel warm.
Seeing both of them say this, Cheng Meifang had no choice but to accept it, "Next time you can't be so polite!"
There was a hint of helplessness in her tone, but also a hint of emotion.
Ruan Chuxia smiled and said nothing more.
He seemed to understand Cheng Meifang's embarrassment and didn't say anything more.
Seeing the two of them about to leave, Cheng Meifang asked casually, "Where are you going?"
She was a little curious and hoped to chat with them for a while longer.
Ruan Chuxia replied: "Let's go shopping in the mall."
He answered simply, an expectant look on his face.
"Hey, you can't ride your bike over there at a time like this!"
Cheng Meifang reminded, with a hint of concern in her voice.
Seeing Ruan Chuxia's puzzled expression, Cheng Meifang explained, "There's a market in town today, and there are too many people. We can't squeeze through on a bicycle."
She explained the situation at the market in detail, hoping Ruan Chuxia could understand.
Ruan Chuxia slapped her head in frustration and said, "Look at me, I completely forgot about this. Then I'll leave the bike with you and come back to pick it up when I pick up Xiaojun later."
He said this with some remorse, an apologetic expression on his face.
"Okay," Cheng Meifang instructed, "I heard from Zhengxing that there have been a lot of bag thefts in town recently, so be careful when you go out on the streets."
Her words were filled with concern and worry.
…
When we arrived in the town, it was indeed bustling with people and very lively.
The streets were bustling with people, and all kinds of stalls were filled with all kinds of goods, which were dazzling.
"Fortunately, I listened to my sister-in-law and didn't ride a bike here," Ruan Chuxia sighed.
He was glad that he listened to Cheng Meifang's advice, otherwise he would have been unable to move in this crowded crowd.
Xiao Zhiyu also agreed with this.
He nodded in agreement and felt fortunate that he didn't come here by bike.
The two of them finally squeezed into the mall and found that there were quite a few people inside.
People are busy choosing New Year's goods, and the atmosphere is very lively.
Because the Chinese New Year is approaching, there are a lot of people buying New Year's goods, especially the place selling snacks and daily necessities on the first floor is crowded with people, as if the entire mall is packed with customers.
Ruan Chuxia didn't want to squeeze in, so she turned to Xiao Zhiyu and said, "Let's go upstairs and look at the clothes first."
He suggested going to a place with fewer people first.
The second floor sells ready-made clothes, which don’t require tickets but are quite expensive, so there aren’t many customers.
Despite this, the shops on the second floor still display a wide variety of clothes that look very tempting.
Ruan Chuxia chose a gray woolen coat with a fashionable collar and made of high-quality wool fabric.
At that time, there was no problem of counterfeit goods on the market. The material was absolutely of high quality, soft and comfortable to the touch, giving people a warm feeling.
She tried it on and felt that her skin looked particularly fair, her lips were rosy, and her teeth were white. She looked very beautiful, as if she was a completely different person.
The only problem was that the price was a bit high and beyond her budget.
Xiao Zhiyu noticed her hesitation and immediately understood her concerns.
Without saying anything, he took the initiative to buy the coat for her, saying, "Don't hesitate if you like something."
His words were concise and powerful, full of encouragement and support.
After shopping for a while, Ruan Chuxia felt that the congestion downstairs should have eased, so she slowly went downstairs to buy New Year's supplies.
Because she had enough candy coupons, she bought milk candies and peanut crisps, which were Xiaojun's favorite snacks.
In addition, she also picked some other snacks such as dried fruits, hoping to give her family a rich New Year gift.
After leaving the mall, Ruan Chuxia felt a headache at the thought of having to squeeze into the bus to go home.
She suggested to Xiao Zhiyu, "How about we take a smaller path back?"
She hopes to avoid the crowds and traffic and have an easier time getting home.
Xiao Zhiyu did not object to this suggestion. He was always willing to cooperate with Ruan Chuxia's decision.
Just as the two of them walked to the entrance of an alley, a man wearing a hat, a mask and black clothes suddenly rushed out from the darkness!
This collision almost made Ruan Chuxia fall to the ground, and then she exclaimed: "Oh! My new clothes!"
The sudden collision made her both surprised and angry. She never expected to encounter a thief who stole her things!
Hearing Ruan Chuxia's cry, Xiao Zhiyu immediately chased after her. His movements were quick and agile, as if he had already prepared for such an emergency.
Ruan Chuxia also hurriedly followed Xiao Zhiyu. Although she was a little scared, she still tried her best to catch up with the thief.
The man ran so fast that even Xiao Zhiyu, who always had good physical fitness, found it difficult to catch up with him, not to mention Ruan Chuxia, who was not as strong as him.
As they ran, the two people in front disappeared, which made Ruan Chuxia very annoyed. She had to stop and gasp for breath, feeling extremely tired.
My body felt heavy from the intense running, and every breath felt like a struggle with the air.
I leaned against the wall to rest. It was quiet all around me, with only the sound of my own breathing.
The silence of the night is like an invisible net that wraps everything in it.
Occasionally a breeze blew through the treetops, making a rustling sound, but this did not calm her heart.
At this moment, an ominous feeling came over me. The silence was really disturbing.
Something seemed to be approaching quietly in the darkness. She felt her heartbeat getting faster and faster, and she even became a little panicked.
She tried to leave quietly by sticking to the wall, but found it was too late.
At this moment, a bad premonition arose, as if danger would happen in the next second.
She felt around the wall, trying to find a place to hide, but the empty space around her left her with nowhere to escape.
"Bang!"
The sound of a gunshot broke the silence, and Zidan's gun passed by Ruan Chuxia's ear.
The sudden sound almost scared her to death. She instinctively lowered her head and curled up as much as possible, hoping to avoid the danger that was about to happen.
Cold sweat began to slide down his forehead and his whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.
She quickly found a place to hide, but she found that she forgot to bring the needle today!
Without the needle, she wouldn't even have the basic ability to defend herself.
