You can only pamper your best friend yourself, what else can you do?
Jiang Susu glanced at the time; it was already nine o'clock, wasn't it getting late?
"Did you stay up late last night? Otherwise, why would you be so sleepy today?"
Lin Musheng nodded. "I did go to bed quite late last night, mainly because I didn't know you would wake me up so early."
Judging from Lin Musheng's current state, she is indeed quite resentful.
"To make it up to you, it's my treat today. Buy whatever you want."
Jiang Susu is an only child, so when she registered her marriage with Shang Yanxing, Jiang Xubai and Song Yinchen gave her a lot of money, just in case she didn't have any money when she needed it.
Even though she's already married, they still hope she can have confidence.
You don't have to rely on men for everything.
"What important thing do you have to do today? I remember you never used to like shopping."
Jiang Susu rarely went shopping before; Lin Musheng usually dragged her out.
But today, Jiang Susu felt something was off about this woman, as if she had something else going on.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to buy Shang Yanxing a birthday present."
Shang Yanxing's birthday is at the end of the month, it's almost here, only half a month away.
Lin Musheng pouted, "Susu, my darling, you're different now. All you see is that man. Are you going to fall head over heels in love again? Just like when you liked Chen Shiyan?"
When Jiang Susu fell in love with Shen Shiyan, she did everything willingly, even if it meant being humble and wronged, she would try her best to please him.
What else could someone like that be but someone obsessed with romance?
"What do you mean by 'love-struck'? Shang Yanxing and I are husband and wife now. He's my husband. Shouldn't I buy him something for his birthday?"
During the time I was married to Shang Yanxing, there were always surprises, no matter what the holiday was.
Now that they're together, on such an important day, if she doesn't buy Shang Yanxing a gift, that man will definitely be very disappointed, right?
Although she might seem a bit love-struck, she genuinely likes Shang Yanxing.
Lin Musheng couldn't do anything about it; after all, they were legally married, and there was nothing more to say.
"Okay, whatever you say. But what birthday present do you want to buy him?"
Jiang Susu shook her head. "I don't know, so I asked you to come with me so you can give me some advice."
After graduation, she never gave any gifts to men.
I had given gifts to Shen Shiyan before, but they were all rather childish things, like a snack gift pack she bought and a scarf she knitted herself.
But Shen Shiyan didn't like any of those things.
Besides, those were birthday gifts from when we were in school, and Shang Yanxing might not like them now, so Jiang Susu didn't plan to give Shang Yanxing any of them.
“Shang Yanxing is a mature man now, so if you’re giving him a gift, it should be something more mature, not something childish like before,” Lin Musheng suggested.
"Yeah, I think so too, but I still don't know what to give as a gift? Clothes, shoes, or a watch?" This made Jiang Susu feel very conflicted.
"A man like Shang Yanxing probably wears custom-made clothes. He wouldn't even look at those outfits that cost tens of thousands of yuan, so let's not send them. Besides, do you even know his clothing size?"
Jiang Susu shook her head honestly, "I don't know."
"Isn't that it? So we won't buy clothes. As for shoes and stuff, they're pretty much the same as clothes, he definitely won't like them."
After Lin Musheng said that, Jiang Susu felt like she had a headache.
"In that case, he won't like anything I give him?"
This man is much richer than her; every piece of clothing and every pair of shoes he wears is custom-made.
"That's not quite it. Perhaps you could give me... a tie or something."
The main problem was that Shang Yanxing's identity was extraordinary, which gave her a real headache, as she didn't know what to give him as a gift.
"A...tie?" Jiang Susu was a little surprised. She felt it was a bit strange to give someone a tie as a gift.
"Yes, ties don't come in sizes, and he uses them every day. As for other things, I really don't know what else to give him."
After hearing what Lin Musheng said, Jiang Susu suddenly felt that it made some sense.
Anyway, he'll have many more birthdays in the future, so I can give him other gifts later. If that's the case, a tie would be fine too.
"So, have you made up your mind? Do you want to go buy it?" Lin Musheng asked.
Jiang Susu nodded, "Then let's go now and pick out two nice ones."
Jiang Susu and Lin Musheng arrived at the specialty store area.
There was a dazzling array of men's ties there.
Jiang Susu was a little overwhelmed by the choices and didn't know which one to choose.
"Mu Sheng, there are so many here, I don't know how to choose. Why don't you help me choose?"
“Sweetie Susu, this is your husband’s birthday, okay? How can you let me choose? If I choose, wouldn’t that be different? Just choose based on what he usually wears.”
She is not capable of shouldering this heavy responsibility.
"Okay, I'll take a look." Mainly, she had never bought this kind of thing before and didn't know what kind of things Shang Yanxing liked.
Jiang Susu remembered that Shang Yanxing usually wore black suits, so she chose two dark ties for him.
One black stripe and one blue stripe, which matched his suit perfectly.
After they finished shopping, they left the mall.
"Mu Sheng, would you like some ice cream cake?" She remembered that Lin Mu Sheng loved eating these little cakes and the like.
"If you want to eat, then I'll reluctantly go with you," Lin Musheng said somewhat haughtily.
Jiang Susu smiled, and then the two of them went to the cake shop together.
Lin Musheng ordered a rose-flavored ice cream cake, while Jiang Susu ordered two matcha-flavored ice cream cakes.
Lin Musheng looked at the two cakes in Jiang Susu's hands, somewhat puzzled, "Susu, my darling, can you finish both of them? Why did you buy so many at once?"
Jiang Susu glanced at the two cakes in her hands and said with a smile, "One for me, and one for Shang Yanxing."
Knowing that Shang Yanxing also liked matcha-flavored cakes, she bought two of the same kind.
Lin Musheng rolled her eyes at Jiang Susu.
“My dear Su Su, I think you’ve really gone mad. Your current state is exactly the same as when you were infatuated with Chen Shiyan.”
Lin Musheng remembers this clearly: this is exactly how Jiang Susu looked when she first fell in love with Shen Shiyan.
"What? Shang Yanxing is different. Don't compare him to Shen Shiyan in everything."
