Chapter 15 When I woke up the next day, Qian Yi...
When she woke up the next day, Qian Yirong vaguely remembered that she seemed to have had a dream, but she couldn't remember anything, so she could only stop thinking about those messy things.
Because of Mu Zexuan's matter, Qian's father and Qian Chengshu were busy almost the whole night. Qian's mother also accompanied them, so they had just rested not long ago. When they had breakfast in the morning, only Qian Yirong and Xu Baiqing were left.
Qian Yirong ate breakfast in an elegant manner, and every move she made was very pleasing to the eye. Xu Baiqing felt that his appetite had improved just by looking at her, and she felt more comfortable during this time when only the two of them were together.
After having a quiet meal, Qian Yirong received a call from Qu Xueer, inviting her to go shopping. Xu Baiqing couldn't help but prick up his ears after Qian Yirong answered the phone.
Although he couldn't hear the voice on the other end of the phone, Xu Baiqing knew who was on the other end and what her purpose was from Qian Yirong's answer, which she could still hear even though she lowered her voice.
So after Qian Yirong hung up the phone, she looked up and met Xu Bai's bright and expectant eyes. Qian Yirong knew at a glance that she wanted her to take her shopping.
"Xue'er only invited me." Qian Yirong meant that this trip was arranged by Qu Xue'er, so it was not appropriate to bring Xu Baiqing along.
"But I've never really gone out to play..." Xu Baiqing said, his bright eyes dimming because of Qian Yirong's implicit rejection, becoming pitiful and even a little watery.
This was Xu Baiqing's usual trick after she realized that Qian Yirong was soft-hearted and would not respond to hardship. Sure enough, when she saw Qian Yirong wavering, she continued to look at her pitifully.
"I, let me ask Xue'er." Qian Yirong couldn't withstand Xu Baiqing's eye attack and said compromisingly.
A smile flashed in Xu Baiqing's eyes as he watched Qian Yirong pick up her phone again and start contacting Qu Xueer. After a while, Qian Yirong showed a relaxed expression on her face and smiled at Xu Baiqing.
Xu Baiqing knew that her goal had been achieved and she could go out with Qian Yirong. She did not lie. This was the first time she went shopping with Qian Yirong just for fun. After all, she had to work hard to make a living before.
After getting into the car, the driver in the front seat had already skillfully raised the partition between the front and back seats after knowing the destination. He didn't know when it started, but it had been engraved in his mind that he couldn't peek into what was going on between the two ladies.
In the back seat, after the partition between the front and back seats rose, Xu Baiqing leaned on Qian Yirong's shoulder like she did yesterday. She liked hugging Qian Yirong more and more. In Qian Yirong's body temperature which was slightly higher than hers, she spread herself like a cat pancake and melted on Qian Yirong's body.
Qian Yirong shook her shoulders, and seeing that Xu Baiqing was still sticking to her, she had no choice but to indulge Xu Baiqing, not realizing that her attitude towards Xu Baiqing was more tolerant than that of others.
The shopping mall chosen by Qu Xueer was in the city center, some distance away from the Qian family's villa, so Xu Baiqing even watched Qian Yirong sleep for a while before arriving at the destination. She was woken up by Qian Yirong, and then she followed Qian Yirong in a daze, and saw Qu Xueer, who was waiting not far away, dressed very exquisitely.
"Sister Rongrong." After seeing Qian Yirong, Qu Xueer waved at her excitedly. Then she saw Xu Baiqing who was sticking to Qian Yirong like a dog-skin plaster, and the smile on her face disappeared.
The disappeared smile shifted to Xu Baiqing's face. She greeted Qu Xueer with a smile and thanked her for taking her with her. Qu Xueer looked at that gentle face and always felt that her eyes were cold when she looked at her.
"Sister Rong, let's go shopping. I heard that new products have arrived. Let's buy a pair together." Qu Xueer ignored Xu Baiqing, who made her feel a little strange, and hugged Qian Yirong's arm, pulling her forward while saying this.
"Okay, okay, Miss Qu, don't be so anxious." Qian Yirong was led forward by Qu Xueer, and she agreed helplessly.
Xu Baiqing, who couldn't get any closer to Qian Yirong after getting off the car, watched Qu Xueer hug Qian Yirong's arm without hesitation and pull her away. Soon, she kept a distance from him. They seemed like inseparable people of the same kind, while he seemed like he had accidentally intruded and was out of tune with them.
Qian Yirong was pulled forward a few steps by Qu Xueer, and realized that Xu Baiqing didn't seem to follow her. She couldn't help but turn her head and saw Xu Baiqing standing there with his head down as if he was abandoned.
"Bai Qing," Qian Yirong said. Seeing Xu Baiqing looking up at her in surprise, her heart couldn't help but soften. She stretched out her hand to Xu Baiqing and said, "What are you daydreaming about there? Come over here."
"Yeah." Xu Baiqing raised the corner of his mouth, ran towards Qian Yirong, and held the hand she extended to him.
Seeing this, Qu Xueer curled her lips and didn't say anything more. She continued to take Qian Yirong to the jewelry store in the mall. As soon as Qu Xueer entered the jewelry store, her eyes lit up when she saw her shopping guide.
Qu Xueer often shopped here, so the shopping guide naturally knew her, and Qian Yirong next to her was also a rich lady known to the shopping guide. Only Xu Baiqing was unknown to her. Since she was with two rich ladies, she must be from some wealthy family. She was a big customer, so the shopping guide immediately went to greet her.
"Welcome, ladies!" The shopping guide greeted the three of them enthusiastically.
"I heard that you have a new product. Let me see it." Qu Xueer nodded casually.
"Ladies, please wait a moment. I'll get it right away." Following the shopping guide's signal, other store clerks came forward and took the three people to sit on the sofa in the store. They also prepared tea and snacks for them to while away the time.
The shopping guide who had disappeared soon came back with a tray. On the tray were several jewelry boxes. The jewelry boxes were open at this time. There was a soft velvet pad inside the jewelry boxes, and several beautiful and expensive pieces of jewelry were placed on the velvet.
"Ms. Qu, these are our new products for this season. Please enjoy them." The shopping guide said as she placed the tray on the table in front of Qu Xueer.
Qu Xueer took a look. She didn't like the earrings, and the ring was nothing new. Only the bracelet with the ruby looked good, so she picked up the bracelet directly.
"Sister Rong, what do you think of this bracelet?" Qu Xueer asked Qian Yirong for her opinion.
"Yes, it suits you very well." Qian Yirong looked at Qu Xueer's fair skin and the ruby that matched it very well and said.
"Then I'll take this one." After receiving Qian Yirong's affirmation, Qu Xueer was obviously happier. She said to the shopping guide, "Do you have other styles of bracelets?"
"Yes, I'll get it right away." It was obvious that a big deal could be concluded, so the shopping guide immediately responded. Then the shopping guide brought out several other styles of bracelets and let Qu Xueer choose.
"This one is nice." Qu Xueer said, picking up a bracelet and comparing it to Qian Yirong's hand, as if to see if it was suitable for Qian Yirong.
"Do you want to give it to me? No thanks." Qian Yirong originally came out to accompany Qu Xueer shopping because she didn't want to stay in the Qian family and had no intention of buying anything.
"Didn't we just say that? We should buy a pair and wear them together. Sister Rongrong can't go back on her word." Qu Xueer said as she changed another bracelet and gestured on Qian Yirong's wrist.
"It's up to you." It was just a bracelet, and Qian Yirong didn't want to spoil Qu Xueer's interest. She probably would lose interest after wearing it for a few days. Besides, it was a gift of similar price, which was not something she couldn't afford.
But Xu Baiqing touched the bank card in her pocket that she had specially brought with her when she went out, and her heart moved slightly. She was still wearing the bracelet she had asked for from Qian Yirong. Seeing Qu Xueer's behavior, she also wanted Qian Yirong to take the thing she had given her.
"Let's take this one, it suits you." Qu Xueer finally picked out a bracelet that she liked, and she gestured to Qian Yirong to raise her hand.
Qian Yirong cooperated very well and let Qu Xueer tie the bracelet on her. Qu Xueer was in a good mood when she saw that Qian Yirong's bracelet was the same style as hers except for the different colors of the gemstones.
"Xu...Xu Baiqing, do you want a bracelet?" After buying the bracelet for Qian Yirong, it seemed not good to leave Xu Baiqing alone. Although Qu Xueer didn't like her very much, she still asked due to social etiquette.
"No thanks," Xu Baiqing refused. She raised her hand, and her sleeve slipped down to reveal the bracelet on her wrist. She said, "I already have the bracelet, so please don't bother Miss Qu."
"This bracelet..." Qu Xueer couldn't help but speak as she looked at the familiar bracelet on Xu Baiqing's hand.
"My sister gave it to me." Xu Baiqing said with a smile on his lips, touching the bracelet on his wrist lovingly.
Upon hearing this, Qu Xueer finally remembered where she had seen this bracelet. At the banquet yesterday, this bracelet was worn on Qian Yirong's wrist, and she seemed to have praised it a few times at that time.
Qu Xueer couldn't help but look at Qian Yirong, who had a somewhat embarrassed expression. Logically speaking, they shouldn't give away jewelry they had worn before. Moreover, the bracelet didn't look very expensive. It looked like an ordinary bracelet that they wouldn't feel bad about if it accidentally broke or was lost.
"I understand." Qu Xueer said, and then naturally bought some other things. Except for the bracelet that she wore directly on her hand, she asked the mall to deliver the rest to her home.
After that, the three of them walked around for a while. Qu Xueer didn't know if it was her illusion, but Xu Baiqing seemed to be deliberately separating her and Qian Yirong, always interrupting her when she wanted to talk to Qian Yirong.
But every time she met Xu Baiqing's innocent eyes, she couldn't help feeling depressed. At the end of the day, Qu Xueer was exhausted both physically and mentally. She thought that she and Xu Baiqing really didn't get along, and next time she went shopping with Qian Yirong, she would definitely not agree to bring Xu Baiqing with her.
