However, Liu Yu told her something interesting.
Qi Jingchen's kept woman, Jiang Qingtang, is pregnant.
The truth, which came many years late, may not be worth mentioning now, but she still prepared a small "surprise" for Qi Jingchen.
For Qi Jingchen, who advocates freedom in love, claims to still be hung up on his ex, and manipulates his "caged bird" to make his partner his possession, it might be more of a pleasant surprise than a shock.
After all, they're free now.
When the two arrived near the restaurant, Qin Yue got out of the car carrying a bag.
While waiting for the food, she took a gift box out of the paper bag, which was tied with a beautiful blue ribbon into a bow.
"This is a gift for you." She pushed the gift box in front of Lu Yanci, gesturing for him to open it.
Long, strong fingers gently tugged at the ribbon, and the bow immediately came undone.
Qin Yue watched his movements with great interest. The Lu family had been raising him as their successor since he was a child, and his manners were ingrained in his bones. His elegant temperament was natural, and no matter what he did, he always gave people a sense of reserved and noble composure.
It must be even more beautiful to see his hands used to play the piano, dancing across the black and white keys.
Inside the gift box were several seven-inch photos.
The photos were all taken by Fang Yuanyuan, and she found some time today to develop them.
He raised an eyebrow in surprise.
Qin Yue intertwined her fingers, rested her delicate chin on the back of her hands, tilted her head slightly to look at him, and explained with a smile in her eyes:
“Yesterday we were talking at the door, and my cousin secretly took a picture of the two of us. I thought it was pretty good, so I printed out a few copies. We can keep them as a memento, to commemorate the first day we started dating.”
He looked up from the photo and gazed at the person in front of him, his eyes filled with undisguised tenderness: "After dinner, let's go pick out some nice photo frames together?"
"Okay." She only asked for a gift box, not a photo frame, which was exactly what she meant.
There is a large shopping mall not far from where we eat.
There was a distance of about ten centimeters between them. Just as Qin Yue was wondering whether she should take his arm, his hot palm enveloped her hand.
She paused for a moment, then looked up at the person beside her.
The man looked straight ahead, his jawline tightened, showing no sign of anything amiss, as if it were a natural occurrence.
Qin Yue smiled gently, slightly pulled her thumb away, and then held Lu Yanci's hand in her own.
The simple gesture calmed his slightly tense emotions.
His brows immediately relaxed.
Before entering the mall, Qin Yue took out a mask from her bag and put it on.
Lu Yanci first took her to the shoe store.
Qin Yue glanced down at her high heels. They were pretty, but walking around in them could be tiring. It seemed Lu Yanci was paying particular attention to what shoes she was wearing.
Could it be because I twisted my ankle last time that he's paying so much attention to me?
Lu Yanci chose shoes primarily for their comfort, while Qin Yue opted for shoes that were both stylish and comfortable.
The sales assistant brought the shoes the two had chosen to the appropriate size. Just as she was about to squat down to help her try them on, the man took the shoes from the sales assistant's hand and squatted down, keeping one knee about a palm's width away from the ground.
He placed the shoe beside him and held her ankle with one hand. Qin Yue was startled and tried to break free, but he firmly controlled her ankle in his palm with a force that prevented her from retreating.
Lu Yanci lowered his eyelids, his burning gaze falling on the fair instep. The pressure on his hand increased slightly, and his steady voice rang out restrainedly: "Don't move."
Lu Yanci's skin tone is slightly fair among men, but it appears much darker compared to Qin Yue's. The difference in skin tone is particularly noticeable when the two are in physical contact.
The contrast between a man's strength and a woman's slender and charming figure creates a striking effect.
It was just a simple act of changing shoes, but not only did the person involved turn red in the face, even the hearts of those around them raced.
It's like a scene from a novel coming to life!
Qin Yue could feel the eyes of the people in the store on them, so she could only pretend not to know anything and move her gaze from the man's thick black hair to his hands.
He gently removed her high heels and put on the crystal-embellished flats she had chosen. Then he removed her other shoe and put on the soft leather shoes he had selected.
He stood up, met her gaze, and said gently, "Let's walk around and see which pair is more comfortable."
As soon as I got up, I felt a sudden sense of relief.
Qin Yue walked around him a few steps, pointed to the pair he had chosen, and said, "These are more comfortable."
After saying that, he deliberately added, "What if the pair I chose looks good?"
Lu Yanci nodded in agreement.
“You have better taste than me. Let’s change into another pair after we’ve finished shopping and bought everything.”
After he finished speaking, he asked the sales assistant to wrap up both her high heels and the flats she had chosen.
Lu Yanci swiped his card and picked up the wrapped shoes, while Qin Yue followed behind him with empty hands and light steps.
After the two left, the others withdrew their envious gazes.
For a moment, I didn't know who to envy.
Seeing a man who is rich, good-looking, and has a great physique is already one in a million, and to be so caring towards his girlfriend is even more rare.
They were all envious.
Despite the customers wearing masks, their sharp eyes can immediately tell that the customer is definitely good-looking; their eyes alone are more striking than many others.
Conversely, if they were men, they would also be willing to spend a fortune for a stunningly beautiful woman.
Qin Yue saw that he was carrying shoes in one hand and reached out to take his free hand, but Lu Yanci avoided her.
She stopped in her tracks, blinked, and looked at him with a puzzled expression.
He explained calmly, "I just touched the shoes and washed my hands before holding hands."
"Obsessive-compulsive disorder?"
"I was worried you'd mind."
"I do mind," Qin Yue nodded, but the next second she intertwined her fingers with his and smiled at his surprised gaze, "So, let's go wash our hands together."
As soon as they came out of the restroom, Lu Yanci took her hand, and the two took the elevator to the boutique.
There are quite a few young people in the boutique.
She wore the mask correctly.
Although she only participated in the show for one day, due to her connection with Wen Xu and Qin Xu, she generated considerable buzz when the show aired. In addition, the subsequent scandal involving company artists further fueled the online discussion.
After all, she's just an ordinary person, so it's not a big deal if she's recognized. But today is her first "date" with Mr. Lu, so it's best to avoid any unnecessary trouble.
When it came to choosing picture frames, the two of them had the same taste: simple and elegant solid wood frames.
"Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap! What did I just see?!"
Qin Yue looked in the direction of the sound and saw a young girl in a school uniform staring at her phone, excitedly tugging at the clothes of the short-haired girl next to her.
"What?" The short-haired girl leaned closer to look, and the next second she uttered a string of uncivilized slang.
