Chapter 64 Trip Preparations Lu Jin... he doesn't even have a single decent outfit...
Sang Li's eyes lit up with excitement when she heard that she was going on vacation.
She left Bai Heng behind and went straight to pick out clothes.
After all, she had been trapped for so long, how could she not yearn for freedom?
"..."
Bai Heng watched her retreating figure.
Forget it, I should think about what to cook.
She really is too much like a child.
Sometimes I think that a life untouched by social corruption is not bad.
Bai Heng was happy to take care of Sang Li, and his protective instincts were aroused from the first moment he saw her.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have stayed at the Administration Bureau for so long.
He was willing to stay by Sang Li's side, even though it seemed like there was no future in it.
The sound of spatulas stirring filled the kitchen, along with the aroma of oil.
Bai Heng skillfully prepared three dishes and a soup: stir-fried eggs with green peppers, beef tenderloin with celery, tomato and tofu soup, and a finely chopped cold dish.
He listened to the sound of a wardrobe being opened coming from inside the house while he was cooking.
She finally poked her head out and called out, "Can you help me see which one is better?"
"You've already chosen so quickly? You're amazing."
Sang Li was praised like a child.
Bai Heng dried his hands and walked over, seeing that the bed was covered with dresses of various colors and several tank tops.
His gaze swept over the styles made of thin fabric.
Some things are hard to explain in a few words.
Showing off the waist, shoulders, and back.
Is Lu Jin not going to buy her any decent clothes at all?
Although he didn't really care what Sang Li wore, he still felt a pang of sadness. The thought of Lu Jin seeing Sang Li wearing different dresses every day made him regret letting Lu Jin bring Sang Li out.
He couldn't be as magnanimous as Lu Jin in letting Sang Li go out dressed like that; after all, he knew all too well how striking she was.
Flowers can bloom for people to see.
But he also hopes to grow up in his own glass house.
Bai Heng's brows almost furrowed as he picked out a pink floral knee-length dress and then took a white knitted cardigan from the closet and tossed it to her: "Choose this. It's cold in the mountains in the mornings and evenings, don't catch a cold."
Sang Li held the dress up against herself and said, "You have good taste. I just bought this new autumn/winter style dress last week."
Bai Heng said, "It's time to get autumn clothes. I'll take you to pick out some clothes next week when I have some free time."
Sang Li shrugged: "No need, I still have a lot of clothes. I've taken up two-thirds of the wardrobe at home, and Lu Jin just finished clearing it out."
“Okay. Also,” Bai Heng turned around and casually mentioned, “bring a swimsuit. The hot spring pool is outdoors, so it will be more convenient and comfortable for you to soak in.”
Sang Li paused for a moment, then slowly grinned, her smile as adorable as a cat's: "Okay."
She went back to her bedroom to continue tidying up, humming a song as she did so.
Actually, what you wear is not important, nor is the quality of the photos.
She hadn't been able to relax and have fun like this in a long time.
One thing leads to another, and every day I wake up to pressure.
Of course, it must be admitted that Lu Jin helped her bear most of the pressure.
And, life can't be all about eating, drinking, and having fun forever.
This time, Bai Heng left without a word, as if indulging without any conditions.
At lunchtime, the food on the table was steaming hot, and she sat there eating while scrolling through her phone.
The resort Bai Heng mentioned looks like paradise just from the photos.
She clicked on the review and was increasingly pleasantly surprised: "How did you discover such a small European place? I never thought a resort like this would be recommended to someone as poor as me. The blankets look so soft, and there's even an outdoor soaking tub and a telescope for stargazing. It's said to be the only high-end, secluded resort with natural scenery on the outskirts of Beijing, 'surrounded by forests, bursting with negative ions, and you can even smell the wild fruits in the air.' I haven't taken photos in so long, so long. Should I bring a few more outfits?"
"I'll take the picture for you," Bai Heng said.
Sang Li: "Shall we have a picnic?"
Bai Heng picked up a piece of food and said calmly, "There are restaurants, and of course you can bring your own. There's also a stream where you can have a picnic. You'll probably really like it there."
Sang Li: "I want to bring meat-filled flatbread."
Bai Heng laughed out loud: "Anything is fine. Shall we prepare the ingredients tonight?"
"Okay!"
afternoon.
Bai Heng and Sang Li went to the supermarket to buy ingredients for their vacation picnic.
The supermarket was brightly lit.
Sang Li pushed her shopping cart through the snack section, while Bai Heng went to the fresh food section across the street, saying he wanted to buy a fresh sea bass to steam for dinner.
The two were separated by only one shelf.
She wants to buy the honey-flavored potato chips.
Sang Li stood on tiptoe in front of the shelf, reaching up with her fingers one by one.
The potato chips of that particular flavor were piled on top, just out of her fingertips, with the packaging stuck in the corner of the shelf, making them impossible to reach no matter how she jumped.
It's not that I'm short, it's just that these potato chips are so popular that the bottom ones are sold out, and the salesperson hasn't restocked the top ones yet.
Just as she was about to ask Bai Heng for help, a slender hand reached out from behind her and deftly took the bag of potato chips.
The joints are clearly defined, and the fingertips are clean.
Sang Li was startled. Before she could turn around, the hand was already extended in front of her.
"Looking for this?" A deep, gentle male voice asked, tinged with a hint of laziness.
She turned her head abruptly, her heart skipping a beat.
How come it's you?
