However, he actually preferred shopping at the supermarket with this little woman.
"No...no, I don't not want to go." She stammered, perhaps because she was nervous.
Seeing that Jiang Susu did not refuse, Shang Yanxing smiled and said, "Then we'll go to the supermarket in a bit and Madam can buy some of her favorite snacks and stock them up at home so she can eat them whenever she's craving something sweet."
It seems we should prepare some snacks at the Waterside Villa in the future, otherwise what if the little girl gets hungry?
"Okay." She remembered that when she was in college, she prepared a snack gift box for Shen Shiyan's birthday.
It contained some of her favorite snacks, packed in a box.
But Shen Shiyan didn't seem to like it and gave all the snacks away to others.
He also told her not to prepare anything anymore.
Even the letters she gave him back then, Shen Shiyan would show to others, and even have others read them aloud.
She vaguely remembered that on Shen Shiyan's twentieth birthday, she wrote her a very long letter.
At that time, Shen Shiyan said he was going to a bar to celebrate his birthday and invited many friends.
She took a gift to the bar and gave it to Shen Shiyan.
At that time, the people around us were making a fuss. It wouldn't have been a big deal, but Shen Shiyan's comment that I shouldn't send him snacks anymore, since he didn't like them, ruined the atmosphere.
At that moment, she almost burst into tears because of Shen Shiyan's words.
Those around her noticed that she was upset and helped Shen Shiyan smooth things over, saying that she meant well, so Shen Shiyan stopped talking.
Moreover, he didn't open the snack gift box himself; Meng Shuang did it for him.
At that moment, he felt as if Shen Shiyan was humiliating her.
Moreover, even the letters she wrote to him by hand were not read by him, but read aloud by someone else.
With so many people around, she wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground, but Shen Shiyan still seemed indifferent.
She remembers that scene vividly.
After she finished reading, someone jokingly said that the two of them were not together yet, and that they were waiting for Shen Shiyan to confess his feelings to her.
But Shen Shiyan said that the two of them would not be together, and that he only regarded her as his younger sister.
At that time, she thought that Shen Shiyan was just embarrassed and that was why he didn't dare to admit it.
So I didn't take it seriously.
But that night, she still cried because of what Shen Shiyan said.
Shen Shiyan simply didn't know that.
The next day, Shen Shiyan apologized to her, saying it was unintentional and that she shouldn't take it to heart.
Then she forgave him and didn't hold it against him.
Afterwards, they acted as if nothing had ever happened, just like before.
But she never forgot it; it was like a knot in her heart that she never got over.
But it doesn't matter now, since it's all over between her and Shen Shiyan anyway.
But now that I think about it, it seems pretty obvious that Shen Shiyan didn't like her.
He acted coldly and said hurtful things, but why was she so devoted to him back then?
This puzzled her a bit.
After resting for a while, they prepared to head to the supermarket.
Seeing Jiang Susu in a daze, Shang Yanxing said, "We, we can set off now."
Jiang Susu snapped out of her thoughts, looked at Shang Yanxing, and nodded, "Okay."
Holding the bouquet of sunflowers, Jiang Susu and the other person walked out of the Western restaurant.
We got in the car and went to the supermarket together.
Inside the car, Jiang Susu held a sunflower and looked out the window.
Shang Yanxing looked at her profile and slightly curved his lips.
A dozen minutes later, they arrived at the shopping center.
Shang Yanxing and Jiang Susu walked into the supermarket together.
As soon as they got out of the car, Shang Yanxing reached out his hand to Jiang Susu, "Madam, hold my hand. Don't get lost. I won't be able to explain it if you get lost, and my parents will scold me."
Jiang Susu pouted, "What? I'm not a child, how could I get lost so easily?" Does this man really treat her like a child?
Despite complaining, she still handed her hand to Shang Yanxing.
"I'm not comfortable with that, I'd rather hold his hand."
Shang Yanxing led Jiang Susu into the supermarket.
Upon entering the supermarket, Shang Yanxing grabbed a shopping cart.
When Jiang Susu saw the snacks in the supermarket, she subconsciously let go of Shang Yanxing's hand.
She added, "The supermarket is so small, you won't get lost. I'm right next to you."
Shang Yanxing nodded. "Okay."
The two of them shopped at the supermarket together.
When Jiang Susu walked to the snack section, her eyes lit up when she saw all kinds of snacks on the shelves.
Jiang Susu took a few bags of potato chips, and then some jelly.
When I saw the ice cream, I really wanted to take it, but I hesitated for a moment.
Shang Yanxing also noticed Jiang Susu's little secret. "Madam wants some ice cream?"
Jiang Susu looked up at Shang Yanxing, smiled with her eyes crinkling, "I want to stock up, but I'm afraid they'll melt." The weather is so hot now, they might melt by the time I get home.
"It's alright, I'll have someone buy some later and put them in the refrigerator for Madam."
"Oh? Actually... it doesn't have to be so complicated. If I want to eat it, I can buy it myself." Would stockpiling it at the Waterside Villa make her seem a bit difficult to please?
"Do I look poor? It's just a few ice creams, and you can't even bear to eat them, madam?" This little woman seems very unwilling to spend his money.
"No, I just..." She just felt a little embarrassed to trouble Shang Yanxing like this.
Shang Yanxing waited for Jiang Susu's answer, but Jiang Susu did not say the second half of her sentence.
Instead, she said, "Then I'll do as you say, but thank you anyway."
"There's no need for such formalities between you and me, Madam."
She wasn't sure if she was getting into character, or if Shang Yanxing was getting a little too involved. She had a feeling that there was something real between them, that it wasn't just an arranged marriage.
To outsiders, it's probably impossible to tell that their marriage is arranged, right? After all, Shang Yanxing treats her so well, and even his gaze seems very serious.
Then, they continued shopping at the supermarket, and Jiang Susu bought a bunch of her favorite snacks.
She hadn't been to the supermarket in a long time, and shopping there made her very happy.
Finally, they arrived at the fruit section.
Jiang Susu looked at the durian and asked, "Shang Yanxing, do you eat durian?"
Durian is delicious, and she likes it quite a bit, but someone of Shang Yanxing's status probably wouldn't like to eat this kind of fruit, right?
"Does Madam like durian?"
"I really like it, but, you know, it has a strong flavor." So she wasn't sure if it would be appropriate to eat it at the Waterside Villa.
"It's alright, if Madam likes it, then we'll buy it."
Jiang Susu smiled and said, "Then you'll eat with me?" She can't be the only one smelling bad, can she?
