On the other side.
The department store in Fukushi City.
Lin Ziyan was taking her two younger sisters to the children's clothing section.
She picked out a few outfits and had the two of them go into the fitting room to change.
Lu Yun Shen was looking at clothes for the newborn baby, picking up several pink pieces and considering whether to buy them all.
Lin Ziyan pulled the clothes from his hand, her lips twitching slightly.
Are you sure you want to buy these now?
Lu Yunshen's gaze paused slightly, his ears turning red instantly. He pretended to be calm and said, "Prepare early, so you won't be caught off guard."
The sales clerk next to me almost couldn't hold back her smile.
"We'll talk about it when we have it." Lin Ziyan took his hand and led him back to the fitting area.
Lin Ziyan walked past the stockings section and picked out a few pairs.
Lu Yunshen's eyes deepened, and he whispered in her ear, "Are you going to play dress-up tonight?"
Lin Ziyan rolled her eyes at him and then picked out a few more pairs of white children's tights.
Even in the hottest winter in Fukushima, you'll still feel cold wearing a skirt and exposing your legs.
She'll be wearing formal attire to receive senior executives from S Electric Appliances in a few days; she can't possibly be bare-legged, can she?
The trouser suit wasn't very nice, so when she discussed it with Sister Fang, she ordered a skirt instead.
"Sister, this dress is a bit cold..." Jiaojiao came out wearing the dress, looking in the mirror and reluctant to take it off.
Lin Ziyan: "Yes, it's very pretty. Just wear it with slightly thicker socks."
Xiaoxiao chose casual pants, and after trying on the size, she sat down and waited.
"Xiaoxiao, you can wear the same dress as Jiaojiao during the New Year. I bought you both pantyhose." Lin Ziyan put her arm around Xiaoxiao's shoulder.
Jiaojiao said, "Second sister, we'll definitely look good wearing the same thing."
The sales clerk next to him smiled even more broadly, surprised that he could close such a big deal today.
Nowadays, very few people come to department stores to buy children's clothes. The prices are high, and the clothes won't last long, so most parents are reluctant to buy them.
A set of children's clothing costs more than 40 yuan, while the average worker's salary is just over 90 yuan.
"Grandma, I want the red dress that the little girl is wearing too."
A soft, sweet voice came from inside.
"Shanshan, don't run away."
A woman wearing a dark-colored long-sleeved cheongsam walked towards the fitting area.
Lu Yun Shen looked up, paused for a moment, and said, "Grandma Wen..."
Lin Ziyan followed his gaze.
"Yun Shen, what are you doing here? I was just about to go find your grandmother," Wen Hui asked in surprise.
Seeing the girl standing next to him, he smiled gently and nodded to her.
"Is this your wife? She's really beautiful and has a great presence," she complimented.
"Ayan, this is Grandma Wen, a friend of Grandma's," Lu Yunshen introduced the two.
Lin Ziyan nodded to her, "Hello, Grandma Wen."
"Grandma, I'm going inside to try on clothes..."
Wenhui looked at her granddaughter as she walked into the fitting room, shook her head and smiled.
Lu Yun Shen quickly stood up and offered her his seat.
“Ayan, Qingyu often mentions you to me.” Wen Hui sat down, her back straight and her demeanor elegant.
Lin Ziyan: "The teacher has been saying these past few days that she can skip class when her friend comes over."
Wen Hui paused for a second, then laughed and said, "That's something a good friend would say."
The two chatted for a while and found they got along very well.
Three children came out of the fitting room at the same time and stood in front of the fitting room mirror, spinning around.
"You're so beautiful!" Jiaojiao complimented, her eyes curving like crescent moons.
"Are you sisters?" Shan Shan asked enviously.
The three of them started chatting because of a dress.
Lu Yun Shen leaned against the side, watching the three of them, a soft light appearing in his eyes.
Next, the group of four became a group of six.
Since we were all buying things for children, we decided to shop together.
Women's Clothing Section
Chen Niaoshu was trying on a formal suit, but because the size was not right, she was throwing a tantrum at the sales clerk.
Wag was lounging comfortably on the sofa, flipping through a fashion magazine.
He heard a familiar voice and looked toward the toy section.
"This Lego set is too expensive..."
“It’s not expensive, let’s build it together.” Lu Yunshen lifted the Lego set up.
Lin Ziyan was speechless, so she simply walked to the other side and picked out some baby supplies.
"Ms. Chen, once we get the correct size, we can deliver the clothes directly to your hotel..."
The salesperson said cautiously.
Chen Niaoshu ignored her, turned her head and saw Lu Yunshen, then saw Lin Ziyan beside him, and muttered to herself, "What a small world."
Wag looked at her, his eyes full of warning.
Chen Niaoshu walked to the sofa and sat down. "Let's go to other stores. The sizes here are too small."
The two of them got up at the same time and walked towards the women's clothing on the other side.
Lu Yun Shen saw them, but pretended not to know them and didn't even glance at them.
They've already poached talent from his company, why bother being nice to them?
Lin Ziyan: "Wasn't the Chen family investigated? How come she's still in the mood to go shopping?"
"She's been removed." A dark glint flashed in Lu Yunshen's eyes.
When the two left to find Grandma Wen in the doll area, they saw Wag and Chen Niaoshu chatting with her.
Lu Yunshen stopped in his tracks, as if remembering something, and pulled Lin Ziyan to the other side.
"Director Wen, our group has a batch of Chinese cultural relics that we would like to send here for an exhibition. I wonder when would be a convenient time for us to discuss cooperation..."
Chen Niaoshu glanced at Wag without showing any emotion, wondering what he was up to.
Wenhui, "Shushu, is this your boyfriend?"
“Mr. Wagner, I will officially take over the Beijing Museum next month. We can schedule a time then.”
She smiled, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.
Many Chinese cultural relics have been lost overseas, and now they have to cooperate with foreigners to exhibit them. She felt only bitterness in her heart, how could she be happy?
The foreigner in front of me may seem to be adopting a humble attitude, but he has actually already planned everything.
With the opening of the Beijing Museum, there are corresponding support policies for foreign companies that can provide exhibitions of cultural relics.
“Grandma Wen, he’s my boss. We’ll schedule a time with you later. We won’t bother you any longer.” Chen Niaoshu nodded to her and pulled Wag away.
Wen Hui watched their departing figures, lost in thought.
The way the two were so intimate just now didn't seem like a boss and employee relationship.
She used to not understand why her friend wouldn't take the Chen family's granddaughter as her apprentice.
Now she vaguely understands.
"Grandma Wen, are you coming back to the fishing village with us today?" Lu Yunshen came out from the other side.
Lin Ziyan had already headed towards the toy section, leading the three children to pay.
When Wen Hui looked over, she saw her granddaughter holding Lin Ziyan's hand tightly.
A soft light spread across her eyes. "Okay, the driver will wait at the entrance of the department store. We'll go back with you in a bit."
She came here to visit an old friend and to find cultural relics for exhibition.
There are many well-preserved cultural relics in Fushi, and she has already collected several pieces in just a few days since she arrived.
The opening of the Beijing Museum during the Chinese New Year will surely attract many visitors.
Finally, after leaving the department store, the two cars, crammed full of goods, set off together for the fishing village.
In the parking lot, Chen Niaoshu watched their car leave, her eyes blazing with anger, her hands clenched tightly.
These were things that should have belonged to her...
