Chapter 16 The older man gave her a modified car
Song Chi's heart was pounding wildly. She stared blankly at Mu Yin and suddenly thought, "Uncle is so handsome!"
Seeing her staring blankly at him, Mu Yin smiled, feeling delighted.
"Song Chi, what are you staring at me for?"
He couldn't resist reaching out and gently flicking her forehead.
Song Chi: "..."
She came to her senses.
The uncle's actions just now were gentle and ambiguous.
She quickly lowered her head, concealing the blush on her face and suppressing the flutter in her heart.
"Uncle, thank you for your kindness."
Mu Yin leaned closer to her, his warm breath tickling her ear.
"Saying thank you is not enough; you have to take real action."
Song Chi: "..."
Was the older man flirting with her? A bold idea suddenly popped into her head!
Isn't it just about expressing your gratitude through concrete actions?
She's not oblivious to what the older man is implying!
She took a deep breath, mustered her courage, leaned forward, and kissed Mu Yin on the cheek.
The kiss was fleeting, like a dragonfly skimming the water, and quickly faded away.
"Uncle, now I've shown you my sincerity, thank you!"
After thanking her again, she covered her flushed face and ran towards the tricycle.
Mu Yin: "..."
His heart skipped a beat the moment the little girl kissed him.
Mu Yin watched Song Chi's retreating figure, his gaze deep and his Adam's apple bobbing.
He meant to express his gratitude in a different way, but she misunderstood and responded in this manner.
However, it seems not bad...
Mu Yin unconsciously smiled, feeling extremely pleased.
Song Chi urged, "Uncle, let's hurry up, we'll be late for the night market if we don't go soon."
"Oh, here it comes."
Mu Yin came to his senses and got on the tricycle.
This afternoon, he learned how to ride a tricycle in less than half an hour.
He sat in the driver's seat.
"Song Chi, hold on tight."
"Okay, hold on tight."
The two exchanged a glance.
Recalling the kiss just now, Song Chi's pretty face turned red, and she quickly turned her face away.
Mu Yin knew she was shy, unaware that she was grinning foolishly and her ears were slightly red.
The atmosphere between the two was ambiguous, practically overflowing with pink bubbles!
Yesterday, Song Chi rode a second-hand tricycle. The ride was very bumpy, and the wind stung his delicate skin. When the vehicle went uphill, it was particularly strenuous!
However, today, the tricycle drove smoothly all the way without any bumps, and the wind didn't hurt her face. When going uphill, she saw that Mu Yin drove very easily.
Song Chi: "..."
She looked at the tricycle again and couldn't help but ask.
"Uncle, I don't know much about cars. How much did it cost to modify this tricycle?"
"Not much..." maybe a million or two.
The money was nothing to him; his only concern was the safety of his wife and children.
Song Chi didn't think much of it. She figured that since the uncle had spent so much money on her this time, she should cook more delicious food for him tomorrow to repay him.
The car drove smoothly through the night market streets.
Mu Yin drove the car to the same spot as last night.
As soon as the two arrived, many stall owners around them turned their attention to them.
Mu Yin parked the car and prepared to help set up the goods.
After a moment of contemplation, Song Chi said, "Uncle, let's not rush to set up a stall."
"how?"
"I'm going to walk around. You wait for me here."
Before Mu Yin could answer, she turned and left.
Mu Yin: "..."
He was filled with curiosity, wondering what she was up to.
He then locked the car and the goods and followed behind Song Chi.
On the street, Song Chi noticed that many vendors were gathered together.
"It was a man in uniform," said one of the men.
"That's settled then. Let's all keep things peaceful and make money together. Let's stop arguing."
In the crowd, someone said—
"That won't do. Our stalls are always in the same spot. What if customers can't find us if we suddenly have to move?"
"That's right, we disagree! We have to set up our stalls in the same locations as before. Changing locations will affect our profits! Are you going to take responsibility for that?"
"..."
The crowd protested, each offering their own opinion.
The man in uniform looked like he had a headache.
Song Chi had a rough idea of what was going on, but he wasn't sure.
She looked around and saw a very beautiful woman beside her, who looked dejected.
Song Chi asked, "Miss, what happened here?"
The woman looked at her and said, "It's you? The girl who was exposed online last night!"
Song Chi felt somewhat embarrassed.
The woman asked, "Are you alright?"
Song Chi: "..."
The two met by chance, and she never expected that she would care about her.
She felt a warm feeling in her heart and smiled.
"I'm fine, thank you for your concern. What happened here?"
"Sigh, it's all because last night, the community cleared out the prime spots in the night market and wouldn't let us set up stalls. Everyone's saying that a big shot's wife is going to set up a stall. Tsk, she's already a rich woman, why would she want to learn how to set up a stall from us ordinary people!"
"The prime spots that we'd fight tooth and nail for, a big shot just casually gave to his wife to experience. I don't know whether to be envious or angry!"
"Because of this, community workers rearranged all our stalls, which has caused protests from all the stall owners!"
The girl looked at Song Chi with curiosity.
"Miss, did you know that last night when you were setting up your stall at the gold market, someone said that you are the boss's wife!"
Song Chi: "..."
She felt ashamed and couldn't help but twitch her lips.
"These rumors are outrageous! How could I possibly be the wife of a big shot? My husband is just an ordinary person like me!"
The girl was skeptical.
Song Chi changed the subject: "Hello, may I ask your name and where your stall is located?"
"My name is Tang Xin, and I sell women's jewelry. Unfortunately, my stall is located at the very back of this night market, in the back of the street, where there aren't many customers..."
Song Chi: "..."
Isn't that the same product she sells?
The two are essentially competitors.
Although they are competitors, selling similar products together might attract more attention.
Song Chi said, "I also sell women's accessories. Can I share a stall with you?"
Tang Xin was surprised: "You're not going to put it in the prime location anymore?"
"I'm not some big shot's wife, I just stumbled upon this by accident last night!"
"Alright then, come with me, so we can keep each other company!"
The two girls hit it off immediately, holding hands as they walked towards the stall.
Not far away, Mu Yin watched this scene.
Mu Yin: "..."
He kindly reserved a prime stall for his wife, but she refused it? She wanted a spot in a back alley instead!
He rubbed his forehead, looking somewhat bewildered.
However, since his wife was willing and happy, he had no choice but to comply.
He took out his phone and called Ye Xiu, telling him to be more discreet in the future, lest everyone know that his wife was coming to set up a stall.
With Tang Xin's guidance, Song Chi found a new stall.
She sent Mu Yin her location and asked him to bring the car over.
A moment later, Mu Yin drove over and helped arrange the goods.
Song Chi lent a hand, but Mu Yin told her to rest and not to overwork herself.
Song Chi felt a warmth in his heart, and his gaze involuntarily fell on her, unaware that his eyes had become sparkling.
Tang Xin stared intently at Mu Yin from the side.
She tugged at Song Chi's sleeve: "Song Chi, your husband is so handsome, he's obviously not an ordinary person. You're really not a rich woman?"
