Chapter 1147: Immune to Handsome Men
Chapter 1147: Immune to Handsome Men
When they had finished chatting, Huang Xiaochuan finally asked, "When are you leaving?"
"The flight is on Tuesday, the day after tomorrow." Yu Wei poured tea into Huang Xiaochuan's teacup.
Huang Xiaochuan nodded and said, "I'll see you off then."
Yu Wei put down the tea tray and waved his hand, "No need, you go about your business."
Since they were all family, Huang Xiaochuan naturally didn't insist anymore after Yu Wei said so. He knew that there was a system within the system, and that Yu Wei's original unit would definitely send someone to see him off when he went to the General Administration. After all, Yu Wei was being promoted, and that's how it is in officialdom. Everyone carries the bridal sedan chair, and he really wasn't suitable to be in such a situation.
He said, "Then I'll get you some more tea later, you can drink it yourself or give it away, it's up to you."
This time, Yu Wei did not refuse: "This is acceptable."
Huang Xiaochuan was amused by Yu Wei's remark: "They even used lines from a skit."
Yu Wei laughed too, he realized it too: "It's true! This shows that the excellent sketches on the Spring Festival Gala have won the hearts of the masses."
"Stop, stop! This is home. Don't give me this nonsense. Besides, are you even a member of the public?" Huang Xiaochuan quickly stopped his brother-in-law. If he keeps giving reports like this, he'll just spout off whatever comes to mind!
Yu Wei was so angry that he didn't want to talk to his childhood friend anymore; his words were too annoying: "Fine, fine, then don't talk to me."
"What's wrong with you two? You two turned on each other after just three sentences. You're both in your fifties, why are you still acting like kids?" Just then, Yu Xiang came up to the two of them. She had heard everything they had said.
"Big sister, you should really keep an eye on your man. His mouth is still as sharp and foul as it was when he was a kid." Upon seeing Yu Xiang arrive, Yu Wei immediately tried to play the victim.
Unexpectedly, Yu Xiang didn't give him a friendly look: "You're not exactly a good person either, otherwise, why were you two so close when you were kids?"
"If that's the case, then you're not a good person either," Yu Wei said sarcastically when he saw that his older sister wasn't helping him.
Yu Xiang wasn't going to tolerate him. She went up and hit him a few times, making him run away with his head in his hands.
"You've got some nerve, daring to disrespect me like this!"
Yu Wei hid behind his mother, Zheng Aiying, and didn't forget to complain: "Mom, look at your eldest daughter, you have to discipline her for hitting people."
Zheng Aiying was too lazy to care, and instead sided with her eldest daughter: "It must be you who made your older sister angry again. Can't you speak properly? Honestly, you're already in your forties, how can you still be so unreliable!"
Yu Wei felt extremely frustrated when his elderly mother didn't help him.
At this moment, Huang Ruiying was shopping with Lin Xiaotang, a classmate she had just met in college, carrying a backpack. Lin Xiaotang was from Qingjiang, and her temperament and personality were compatible with Huang Ruiying's. So, after half a month of military training, the two became inseparable best friends.
The afternoon shopping trip was Lin Xiaotang's suggestion, and Huang Ruiying, being a local, naturally had to act as the tour guide.
"Where do you want to go?" Huang Ruiying asked Lin Xiaotang as they walked.
Lin Xiaotang had done some research beforehand: "I heard that a new fashion brand store has opened on Huaihai Road. They're having big opening discounts, so I'd like to go check it out."
As Lin Xiaotang spoke, she took out her phone to check: "There's a milk tea shop nearby. I heard their mango pomelo sago is especially delicious, and the owner is very handsome." When she mentioned the owner, Lin Xiaotang smiled lewdly.
"Let's go then!" Huang Ruiying immediately became interested upon hearing this.
The two met at the intersection of Xiangyang Road and Huaihai Middle Road. After meeting, they started strolling along Huaihai Middle Road from west to east.
The most bustling part of Huaihai Road is Huaihai Middle Road and Huaihai East Road. Some of Shanghai's famous commercial plazas are located on this road, such as the well-known Paris Spring and Huanmao Plaza, as well as boutiques of world-renowned luxury brands.
However, when they passed by those top luxury boutiques, the two did not go in, but only glanced at them from the doorway.
Lin Xiaotang was too scared to go in, while Huang Ruiying didn't want to go in.
After wandering around for a while, the two finally arrived at the fashion brand store that Lin Xiaotang had mentioned. Because it was still in the opening promotion period, the store was crowded with people, mostly young girls.
Lin Xiaotang came to the store specifically to buy clothes, so as soon as she entered, she started picking out clothes and would occasionally take one off and hold it up to herself to check it out.
"Ruying, what do you think of this one?" She was holding a white dress with light purple floral print.
Huang Ruiying shook her head: "Purple doesn't suit you. This pattern is a bit old-fashioned. Why don't you look at something else?"
Huang Ruiying then looked around and pointed to a clothes rack: "Look at that white dress, it looks alright."
Lin Xiaotang followed Huang Ruiying's finger and found the white shirt dress. She tried it on and it looked great.
"This one is really nice, Ruiying, you have great taste." Lin Xiaotang praised her friend while holding up the designer clothes on herself.
Just then, Lin Xiaotang noticed there was another light blue version of the same style and suggested, "Ruiying, I think this color suits you perfectly, why don't you buy one too!"
Huang Ruiying took the same dress that Lin Xiaotang mentioned in her hand, compared it to herself, and then glanced at the price. After the discount, it was about two hundred yuan.
"Okay, let's give it a try!"
The two found their own sizes and went into the fitting room to change.
Huang Ruiying came out first and looked at herself in the mirror for a long time. There was one thing she was very dissatisfied with, and that was her skin. If it were like before military training, this outfit would have looked great on her, but now...
At this moment, Lin Xiaotang came out. Although she had also gotten quite tanned, the clothes she was wearing were very suitable, both in terms of style and fabric color.
"Never mind, I don't look as good as you. You buy it, I'll look at some more." Huang Ruiying went to the fitting room to change back into her clothes.
Lin Xiaotang bought the dress without hesitation after her friend said it looked good on her.
Lin Xiaotang was in a great mood after buying the clothes she wanted. She went straight to the milk tea shop she had researched online after leaving the store.
It's a popular online store, not very big, but decorated in a very stylish way, and there's always a long queue outside.
After seeing this, Huang Ruiying hesitated: "Xiaotang, let's forget it, there are too many people. Let's drink it next time!"
"Since we're already here, let's not do it next time. Find a place to sit and wait for me while I go queue up to buy." Lin Xiaotang casually handed the shopping bag she was carrying to Huang Ruiying.
Seeing this, Huang Ruiying had no choice but to let her have her way and found a place to sit and wait.
A dozen minutes later, Lin Xiaotang appeared in front of Huang Ruiying, holding a cup of mango pomelo syrup in one hand.
"Ruiying, here you go!"
Huang Ruiying took a cup of mango pomelo sago from Lin Xiaotang and then asked Lin Xiaotang to sit down quickly.
"Sit down for a while, are you tired?"
"Not tired at all!" Lin Xiaotang took a big sip of mango pomelo sago.
Then she started gossiping with Huang Ruiying: "I saw the boss, he's really handsome, he looks a bit like Zhao Yiming from our class."
"Oh!" Huang Ruiying didn't take it seriously. When it comes to handsomeness, who could be more handsome than her brother? She was already immune to handsome men.
Seeing that Huang Ruiying remained unmoved, Lin Xiaotang brought up another piece of gossip.
