Qiao Shu widened his eyes and instantly became energetic!
He took the black card handed by Gu Chenyan. He carefully felt it, and with a tone and expression that showed his lack of exposure to the world, he asked, “Is this the rumored unlimited black card exclusively for the wealthy to swipe as they please?”
Gu Chenyan: “Hmm.”
Commoner Qiao Shu: “!!!”
Qiao Shu: “Really for me?”
Gu Chenyan: “Hmm.”
Qiao Shu blinked and asked, “Can I really swipe it as I please?”
Gu Chenyan: “Yes.”
Gu Chenyan: “Swipe as you please. Buy as you please.” Seeing his adorable little wife’s expression, Gu Chenyan couldn’t help but feel a bit pleased. He paused for a moment, then added, “Wife, you’re rich.”
Qiao Shu: “!!!”
Such a domineering statement from the boss!
Qiao Shu’s heart raced with excitement. He happily nibbled on Gu Chenyan’s lips and excitedly waved the hand holding the black card, “Then, let’s go shopping now!”
Qiao Shu imitated the mannerisms and tone of the wealthy characters in TV dramas as he pointed around in the air, “This one. This one. Not these. Wrap up everything else for me!”
Gu Chenyan couldn’t help but suppress a laugh, “To the Golden Glow Mall?”
Qiao Shu: “!!!”
That’s where the wealthy people of Haicheng go shopping. They say the higher the floor, the more expensive the items inside.
Gu Chenyan: “Are we going?”
Qiao Shu: “Yes!”
Midway through the journey, the car veered towards the Golden Glow Mall. Along the way, Qiao Shu was very excited, “I heard the things there are very expensive, at least tens of thousands for a piece of clothing. Is that true?”
Gu Chenyan: “Some are in the tens of thousands.”
Qiao Shu: “Is there food?”
Gu Chenyan: “Yes.”
Qiao Shu couldn’t help licking his lips, “The food in such an expensive place must be delicious, right?”
Gu Chenyan thought for a moment, “We usually buy small cakes and cream puffs there.”
Qiao Shu clapped his hands, “Then, they must be delicious!”
He swallowed saliva.
He couldn’t help but tug on Gu Chenyan’s sleeve, “Let’s buy some small cakes to eat later.”
Gu Chenyan: “No.”
Qiao Shu widened his eyes in astonishment, disbelief filling his gaze.
Gu Chenyan actually refused him!
Gu Chenyan rejected his request!
Where’s the love?
Gu Chenyan pinched his nose. “Little Mr. Qiao, you’ve already had a lot of cake today.”
In the afternoon, Qiao Shu was with Jiang Jiayu. Both of them had a body type that didn’t gain weight easily. Since Jiang Jiayu had just finished filming a movie and didn’t need to control his weight too much, and he also liked sweets, the two of them indulged in eating together, whether it was cake, ice cream, or bubble tea.
Qiao Shu felt guilty.
Gu Chenyan would spoil him by buying sweets and preparing small cakes for him. At the same time, he would also control Qiao Shu’s intake of sweets.
Eating too many sweets wasn’t good for the body.
Qiao Shu knew that.
So he blinked guiltily. “Can we buy some to save for me to eat tomorrow?”
Qiao Shu: “Can I eat them tomorrow?”
Gu Chenyan: “They’ll deliver fresh ones tomorrow.”
Qiao Shu: “…”
Feeling aggrieved, Qiao Shu buried his head in Gu Chenyan’s shoulder, his fingers unhappily picking at Gu Chenyan’s back.
Gu Chenyan patted his back to soothe him. “Be good. Can you wait until tomorrow to eat?”
Qiao Shu felt wronged.
He was very tempted.
But he still obediently nodded. “Okay.”
Gu Chenyan: “Later, let’s go and choose what you want to eat tomorrow. They can make it and deliver it tomorrow, okay?”
Qiao Shu’s fingers twitched, revealing a smile. “Okay.”
The car stopped in the underground parking lot of the mall. The two of them took the elevator directly to the third floor cake shop.
Because of the special nature of this mall, Qiao Shu didn’t need to wear a mask either. He walked very relaxedly, holding Gu Chenyan’s hand directly into the cake shop.
“Welcome.”
The waitress was slightly surprised when she saw Gu Chenyan and Qiao Shu. But she quickly composed herself, showing a professional smile. “Do the gentlemen need any assistance?”
Qiao Shu: “We’ll browse ourselves.”
Qiao Shu was very excited. He pulled Gu Chenyan to the nearest glass window. He smelled the faintly sweet aroma in the air of the shop, and his whole mood soared.
Qiao Shu: “This one looks delicious.”
Gu Chenyan: “Get it.”
Qiao Shu: “Okay.”
Qiao Shu: “And this one looks good too!” He leaned over another glass window, eyes longing.
Gu Chenyan: “Let’s get this one too.”
Qiao Shu: “And this one, and this one…”
The waitress was secretly excited as she kept glancing at the two. She noticed that Qiao Shu had almost no resistance to every dessert, and he seemed unable to resist any of them.
The waitress praised the desserts while eagerly looking at Gu Chenyan.
Gu Chenyan, on the other hand, would show a very indulgent smile, ruffle Qiao Shu’s hair, and say, “Okay, let’s get them.”
Qiao Shu received the joyful answer and immediately revealed a silly, sweet smile.
Ah, it’s so sweet!
Being lovey-dovey on the spot feels so happy!
The two wandered around the cake shop for nearly half an hour. When they reached the counter, Qiao Shu blinked in confusion. He tilted his head and asked, “Gu Chenyan, what did we just pick?”
Gu Chenyan ruffled Qiao Shu’s hair and said to the counter, “Number 1, number 5, number 6, number 8…” Each dessert here was labeled with a number, and he listed over twenty of them in one breath. “Each of these desserts, one serving each, will be delivered to the Gu Group building tomorrow.”
The waitress at the counter nodded, “Alright.”
Qiao Shu exclaimed beside him, “So many? You remember all of them! You’re amazing!”
“Husband~” Suddenly, he cooed, his big eyes looking at Gu Chenyan with great anticipation. He asked softly, “With so many, can I eat them all tomorrow?”
Gu Chenyan: “You can only have a little of each.”
Qiao Shu: “…”
Qiao Shu: “That’s quite wasteful, isn’t it?”
He blinked hypocritically.
Gu Chenyan pinched Qiao Shu’s soft cheeks. “Little Mr. Qiao, the CEO’s office has many people.”
Qiao Shu: “…”
He pouted.
Then he tentatively asked, “Since we’re already here, can I buy one to eat?” He gestured with his fingers, “Just the smallest one.”
Qiao Shu: “Is that okay?”
Qiao Shu: “Please?”
Qiao Shu: “Mr. Gu.”
Qiao Shu: “Husband~”
Qiao Shu: “Brother~”
With big blinking eyes, he shook Gu Chenyan’s arm.
Gu Chenyan sighed helplessly, eventually conceding, “Go pick one, and we’ll take it with us.”
Qiao Shu: “Yeah!”
Victory!
He happily released Gu Chenyan’s arm and went to pick out the last little dessert he could indulge in today.
After browsing for a bit, Qiao Shu ultimately chose his favorite, strawberry mousse.
“Let’s go,” Gu Chenyan said, holding Qiao Shu’s hand.
Qiao Shu joyfully carried the small bag, incredibly happy as he walked out of the cake shop with Gu Chenyan.
Behind them, the waitress exclaimed, “!!!”
Ah, it’s too sweet!
Why do I have to work now? Why does the store prohibit using phones during work hours?
I can’t share this with my sisters right away!
Heart-wrenching!
I can’t breathe!
Ah, it’s so sweet!
Qiao Shu had no idea about the heartache of the cake shop waitress. He was just too happy at the moment.
He could enjoy his little cake!
Hehe.
Wait a moment.
Qiao Shu looked up at Gu Chenyan in confusion, “Did we just not pay?”
Gu Chenyan nodded, “Yes.”
Gu Chenyan: “The cake shop allows monthly billing.”
“Ah!” Qiao Shu exclaimed.
Is this what it means to be wealthy?
As they were on the third floor filled with food, Qiao Shu hadn’t walked far before he saw an ice cream shop and couldn’t resist stopping.
He looked at it longingly, then glanced hopefully at Gu Chenyan.
Gu Chenyan shook his head.
Qiao Shu felt disappointed.
He lowered his head in extreme disappointment, looking pitiful. Just as Gu Chenyan was about to give in, Qiao Shu took Gu Chenyan’s hand and walked away.
“I won’t eat anymore,” Qiao Shu said. “I already have a little cake.”
His eyes sparkled as he placed his hands on his stomach, “I want to set a good example for our Zai Zai!”
Qiao Shu: “Let’s go!”
Qiao Shu: “Let’s go buy some clothes!”
Gu Chenyan’s gaze softened.
They took the elevator to the top floor. Qiao Shu spotted a store and dragged Gu Chenyan inside. He focused on picking out some expensive-looking clothes and then handed a set to Gu Chenyan, saying, “Go try these on.”
Gu Chenyan’s eyes flickered.
Qiao Shu had already pushed Gu Chenyan into the nearby fitting room. “Let me pick out some more for you.”
He closed the fitting room door.
Qiao Shu continued to pick with a good mood. He selected several sets and placed them aside, then sat on the nearby sofa waiting for Gu Chenyan to come out.
Gu Chenyan soon emerged.
Qiao Shu’s eyes lit up instantly! Handsome!
His husband was indeed a clothes hanger; he looked good in everything. Qiao Shu couldn’t help but think that he looked even more handsome in this suit that he had picked out himself.
“You should try this one, too,” he said eagerly.
Gu Chenyan asked, “And what about you?”
“Huh?” Qiao Shu was startled. “I’m not buying.”
He had plenty of clothes. Since he married Gu Chenyan, designers have come to tailor clothes for him every month. In fact, Gu Chenyan’s clothes were also customized. But Qiao Shu still wanted to personally buy clothes for Gu Chenyan, just for the thrill of it.
Buying things for someone you love is the happiest thing ever!
“Hurry up and try them on,” Qiao Shu urged as he pushed Gu Chenyan back into the fitting room.
Gu Chenyan felt helpless.
He tried on one set after another.
In the past, he found this process tedious and a waste of time. Gu Chenyan had never tried clothes like this before. His clothes were all custom-made by top designers, so he didn’t need to try them on one by one. Even when he was studying abroad and working part-time, he rarely tried on clothes like this. He usually just picked them casually.
But now, every time he finished trying on clothes and saw Qiao Shu’s bright and beautiful eyes, he felt that the process of buying clothes was quite nice.
“Ah!” Qiao Shu looked at the clothes Gu Chenyan had tried on, feeling conflicted. “They all look so good. I want to buy them all.”
Gu Chenyan: “Then buy them.”
Qiao Shu looked up at him, glaring.
Gu Chenyan: “???”
Qiao Shu pouted.
Then he lowered his head again, carefully selecting. After a while, Qiao Shu picked out two sets of clothes from those Gu Chenyan had tried on, which he thought looked the best. He went to the counter to pay.
He took out his phone to make the payment.
The nearly one million price for the two sets of clothes made Qiao Shu, a commoner, feel a bit of pain.
Gu Chenyan walked over, slightly surprised to see Qiao Shu paying with his phone. “Why not use that card?”
Qiao Shu looked up at him. “This is something I’ve wanted to do for a while. It’s different.”
Gu Chenyan looked at him.
Qiao Shu took the bag from the counter lady and handed it to Gu Chenyan, then smiled sweetly at him. “I also want to use my own money to support my husband!”
He took Gu Chenyan’s hand and walked out.
Gu Chenyan took the bag of clothes from Qiao Shu’s hand, and Qiao Shu smiled comfortably. “Are you satisfied?”
Gu Chenyan was taken aback, feeling a warmth in his heart. He cleared his throat, then said, “Thank you, my Little Mr. Qiao.”
Qiao Shu chuckled.
After buying the clothes he had wanted to give Gu Chenyan for a while, Qiao Shu pulled Gu Chenyan to the fourth floor.
When he entered the mall, he noticed the baby store on the fourth floor.
This time, he took Gu Chenyan to experience the joy of unlimited shopping with the black card. Baby clothes, toys, bottles, and more—he had the ones he liked wrapped up by the service ladies.
After swiping the card, Qiao Shu said, “Please deliver these to the Gu Mansion in Lanting. Thank you.” He had bought too much to carry back himself.
Exiting the baby store, Qiao Shu counted on his fingers and said, “We should start preparing the baby’s room, too.” He looked up at Gu Chenyan and asked, “Do you think the baby will be a boy or a girl?”
“Oh!” Suddenly, Qiao Shu laughed.
Gu Chenyan asked, “What’s so funny?”
Qiao Shu chuckled happily, “I just thought of a mini version of Mr. Gu.” He clapped his hands, “It would be great if the baby could look like you.”
A tiny, adorable Mr. Gu.
Ah!
Just thinking about it melts my heart. It must be very cute, super cute!
Gu Chenyan was taken aback.
Then he smiled, “I hope the baby looks like you.”
Gu Chenyan: “Mr. Qiao must have been adorable as a child.”
Qiao Shu said narcissistically, “Definitely.”
Qiao Shu: “But the baby still has to be like you. I want a little Mr. Gu.”
Gu Chenyan, rarely childish, said, “I want a little Mr. Qiao.”
Qiao Shu stared at him.
Gu Chenyan looked at him.
Qiao Shu pouted and domineeringly covered his stomach, “My baby, I make the decisions!”
“Little Mr. Qiao,” Gu Chenyan said.
With his low voice, Qiao Shu’s heart skipped a beat, almost melting.
Ah ah ah!
Was Gu Chenyan being cute? Was he being cute?
This kind of Gu Chenyan is so unfair!
“Then, then, half like you and half like me.” Qiao Shu compromised stutteringly. After saying this, his eyes brightened, “This is good! This is good!”
Qiao Shu: “You can tell we’re a perfect match!”
Qiao Shu: “Perfect!”
Gu Chenyan chuckled.
He nodded in agreement, “Little Mr. Qiao is still clever.”
Qiao Shu was even happier, “Of course, just look at who I am!”
Qiao Shu: “Ha~”
After walking for a while, Qiao Shu yawned.
Gu Chenyan: “Tired?”
Qiao Shu’s eyelids kept drooping due to the overwhelming drowsiness, his voice becoming muddled: “Mmm.”
Qiao Shu: “Tired.”
He rubbed his eyes and instinctively leaned towards Gu Chenyan, reaching out to hold onto Gu Chenyan’s waist.
Qiao Shu: “So sleepy.”
Gu Chenyan embraced Qiao Shu, “Let’s go home then. We can come back another day to shop?”
Qiao Shu: “Mmm.”
The two headed towards the elevator.
The elevator descended straight to the basement, quickly arriving at the underground parking lot.
Gu Chenyan looked down at Qiao Shu nestled in his arms, who hadn’t moved: “Qiao Shu?”
Qiao Shu: “Zzz~”
Gu Chenyan listened seriously for a moment, then chuckled. He bent down, lifting the sleeping Qiao Shu in his arms, and walked out of the elevator.
As they got into the car, Gu Chenyan noticed the paper bag containing the strawberry mousse cake that Qiao Shu was still tightly holding onto. He chuckled again, laughing softly.
The driver glanced at them curiously through the rearview mirror.
The next day.
Early in the morning, Gu Chenyan changed into the suit set that Qiao Shu had bought for him. After changing, he took out the pair of cufflinks that Qiao Shu had bought for him. He fastened the cufflinks, carefully checked himself in the mirror, feeling pleased, then returned to the room and walked to the bedside.
Gu Chenyan: “Good morning, Little Mr. Qiao.”
Gu Chenyan: “I’m going to work.”
He bent down and placed a gentle kiss on the sleeping Qiao Shu’s lips, then carefully tucked him in before heading downstairs.
Aunt Lan came out of the kitchen with breakfast and saw Gu Chenyan coming downstairs, smiling. “Master seems to be in a good mood today.”
Gu Chenyan nodded. “Mmm.”
He walked to the dining table, intending to pull out a chair to sit down, but suddenly stopped.
Aunt Lan was puzzled. “Master, what’s wrong?”
Gu Chenyan stood straight. “Aunt Lan.”
Aunt Lan: “???”
Gu Chenyan: “How do you think I look in this outfit today?”
Gu Chenyan: “Does it look good?”
Aunt Lan: “…”
It was the first time Aunt Lan had been asked such a question by Gu Chenyan. She was stunned for several seconds. Then, she carefully examined the clothes Gu Chenyan was wearing and said, “It looks very good, very suitable for the master.” After saying that, she cautiously asked, “Is it new clothes?”
Gu Chenyan: “Mmm.”
Gu Chenyan: “It’s what Qiao Shu bought for me yesterday. He personally took a long time to pick it out.” Gu Chenyan smiled as he mentioned this.
Aunt Lan chuckled.
She didn’t hesitate to praise again, “Madam’s taste is excellent, and the master looks really handsome in it.”
Gu Chenyan: “Mmm.”
Gu Chenyan: “Qiao Shu has a good eye.”
After breakfast, Gu Chenyan went to work, and the driver was already waiting outside.
As Gu Chenyan walked out, he saw Uncle Zhou returning from watering the plants. He paused and asked, “Uncle Zhou, what do you think of my outfit today?”
Uncle Zhou, being a straightforward man, was taken aback.
He instinctively said, “Master looks good in anything.”
Gu Chenyan smiled, “Qiao Shu bought it for me. He personally spent a long time picking it out yesterday.”
Uncle Zhou: “…”
Gu Chenyan got into the car and headed to the company.
Uncle Zhou scratched his head as he walked back into the house. He puzzledly said to Aunt Lan: “Master suddenly asked me how his clothes looked. What’s going on? He has never asked such a question before.”
Aunt Lan chuckled, “You don’t understand.”
Aunt Lan: “Did Master also tell you that these clothes were bought by Madam Qiao?”
Uncle Zhou: “How did you know?”
Aunt Lan laughed heartily, “It seems that Master has grown up.” He also understood how to show affection childishly.
Truly adorable.
Gu Chenyan headed to the company.
He took the elevator straight to the top floor, where Chen Wenyuan had been waiting at the elevator entrance.
Chen Wenyuan: “Sir, good morning.”
Gu Chenyan: “Mmm.”
Chen Wenyuan followed behind Gu Chenyan, passing by the CEO’s office and heading towards Gu Chenyan’s own office. “Here’s today’s schedule…”
Gu Chenyan suddenly stopped in his tracks, interrupting Chen Wenyuan: “Assistant Chen.”
Chen Wenyuan: “Sir.”
Gu Chenyan: “Do you think I look good in this outfit today?”
Chen Wenyuan: “???”
Adhering to the serious and professional spirit of an assistant, Chen Wenyuan carefully examined Gu Chenyan from head to toe, then said, “This suit suits you very well, sir.”
Chen Wenyuan: “You look very handsome.”
Gu Chenyan: “Mmm.”
He said with a hint of pride in his tone, “My wife bought it for me.”
Gu Chenyan: “He spent a long time picking it out.”
Chen Wenyuan: “…”
Other employees in the CEO’s office: “!!!”
Gu Chenyan chuckled, “He worked hard.”
After showing off, Gu Chenyan lifted his foot and walked into his office, leaving Chen Wenyuan, who had been stunned for several seconds, to quickly catch up.
The office door closed.
Outside, chaos erupted in the CEO’s office!
Assistant A: “Ahhh! Was President Gu showed off just now? He was showing off, right? He was showing off, right? He was showing off, right?”
Secretary B: “Goodness gracious! President Gu evolved! He evolved without any warning!”
Secretary C, clutching her heart: “Ah, I’m going to be sweetened to death! Even the God of Death has such a day!”
Assistant D: “I thought President Gu had reached his limit before yesterday, but I didn’t expect him to be even more impressive today!”
“This damn love!”
“It’s so sweet!”
Gu’s employees’ chat group:
[009: Announcement! President Gu seemed to be in a super good mood this morning. If you have tasks to submit, do it quickly!
015: What happened to President Gu?
005: Yesterday, Madam bought clothes for President Gu, and he wore them to work today.
006: President Gu even showed off to us!
007: “Assistant Chen, do you think I look good in this outfit today?”
008: “My wife bought it for me!”
009: “He took his time picking it out!”
003: “He worked hard!”
006: Ahhh, you guys stole my lines, but anyway, that’s how it is. President Gu has evolved.
089: Wow, is President Gu really that sweet?
056: Ahhh, getting a sugar rush early in the morning! I’m going to be so happy today hahaha.
023: Heh! Even the most cold-hearted man can’t escape the clutches of love.
066: Heh! Even the most cold-hearted man has experienced the grasp of love.
…
113: Awesome. The wife is awesome!
456: Awesome. The wife is awesome!]
…
Qiao Shu slept until ten o’clock straight. He sat on the bed and thought for a moment. But he couldn’t remember how he got home yesterday. There was no need to think, it must have been Gu Chenyan who brought him back.
He blushed and covered his face.
Gu Chenyan must have carried him.
Ah!
Inside the mall, princess carry?
So shy!
Qiao Shu calmed down for a while before finally regaining composure. With a slightly flushed face, he went to brush his teeth and wash his face, then headed downstairs to eat his delayed breakfast.
Eat?
Qiao Shu’s steps paused as he descended the stairs.
!!!
He hadn’t eaten his cake from yesterday yet! The cake! Where was his cake?
Aunt Lan passed by.
Seeing Qiao Shu standing at the stairwell lost in thought, she smiled: “Good morning, Madam.”
Aunt Lan: “Did you and Master go shopping for clothes last night?”
Qiao Shu: “Ah?”
He nodded.
Aunt Lan smiled: “The clothes Madam bought for Master are really nice.”
Qiao Shu’s eyes lit up: “Aunt Lan, you think they’re nice too!”
Qiao Shu: “No, did you see?”
Aunt Lan: “This morning, Master went to work wearing the clothes Madam bought.”
Aunt Lan: “Master even showed off to me and your Uncle Zhou,” Aunt Lan chuckled, covering her mouth. “I’ve never seen such a master before. It’s all thanks to Madam.”
Qiao Shu suddenly became interested, completely forgetting about the little cake he bought last night. He hurried downstairs.
Aunt Lan: “Take it easy.”
Qiao Shu: “It’s okay.”
He approached Aunt Lan, curiously asking, “How did Gu Chenyan show off?”
Qiao Shu: “Aunt Lan, tell me about it.”
Aunt Lan recounted the morning’s events to Qiao Shu, leaving him ecstatic.
The usually serious Gu Chenyan actually had such a side!
Haha!
He couldn’t contain his joy.
So adorable!
It’s a pity he didn’t see it with his own eyes.
In the afternoon, as usual, Qiao Shu went to the company. As soon as he entered, he received everyone’s warm gazes.
Security guard: “Madam, did you buy clothes for President Gu yesterday?”
Qiao Shu: “…”
He smiled and said, “Yes.”
Receptionist: “Madam, the clothes you bought for President Gu are really nice.”
Qiao Shu: “…”
He smiled and said, “Thank you.”
A passing employee on the first floor: “Madam, were you tired from picking out clothes yesterday?”
Qiao Shu: “…”
Qiao Shu: “Not tired, not tired.”
Entering the elevator, Qiao Shu couldn’t help but cover his stomach and burst into laughter.
What did Gu Chenyan do that everyone in the company knows about it?
No way!
Just thinking about it is so adorable!
Adorable Mr. Gu!
