Li Yan had been about to agree, but Qian Li said, "It's fine. We happen to need to buy some art supplies too, so we won't disturb your time alone together."
Since Qian Li had put it that way, Xiao Bei and Ji Qinglan did not say anything more.
The four of them parted ways at the entrance of the Shangri-La hotel.
Xiao Bei took Ji Qinglan to his S63!
After getting in, Ji Qinglan looked at Xiao Bei and asked, "Honey, what are you going to buy?"
Xiao Bei thought for a moment, then reached out and cupped Ji Qinglan's chin. "You gave me a gift yesterday. Today, it's my turn to give you one!"
Teased by Xiao Bei like that, Ji Qinglan smiled faintly, though her face was still slightly flushed.
"I don't want a gift," Ji Qinglan said.
"Giving it to you is my business. Whether you want it is yours!" Xiao Bei declared domineeringly. Without giving Ji Qinglan time to refuse, he started the car and drove out of the hotel.
Xiao Bei drove straight to the International Trade Center.
After parking, Ji Qinglan looked at Xiao Bei. "Although my husband isn't short of money, you really don't need to deliberately buy me gifts."
"A lot of times, you say you don't want something, but as your man, I can't just leave it at that. Be good." Xiao Bei opened the car door and smiled.
Ji Qinglan rolled her eyes at Xiao Bei.
Xiao Bei chuckled. "Come on, it's perfectly normal for a boyfriend to give his girlfriend things. Besides, if you won't accept my gifts, are you going to accept gifts from other men?"
Hearing that, Ji Qinglan felt warmth rise in her heart, though she still rolled her eyes at Xiao Bei.
The two took the elevator to the fourth floor. Once inside the mall, he led Ji Qinglan straight to Chanel.
In truth, Xiao Bei felt that Chanel suited Ji Qinglan's temperament very well, which was why he had brought her there!
The moment the two entered, the sales assistant nearby lit up.
After all, she worked in the luxury goods industry, and she recognized Ji Qinglan at a glance!
Ji Qinglan was one of their store's top VIPs!
She put down what she was holding and quickly approached Ji Qinglan and Xiao Bei. "Ms. Ji, welcome to Chanel!"
Xiao Bei was not surprised. Given Ji Qinglan's wealth, it was perfectly normal for her to shop at Chanel.
"We'll browse on our own. We'll call you later."
Before Ji Qinglan could speak, Xiao Bei said with a faint smile.
The sales assistant looked at Xiao Bei. At first, she was a little displeased, but when she saw his handsome face, his bearing, and his outfit of top-tier luxury brands—
Her displeasure vanished completely, because she knew the man before her was definitely no ordinary person.
She was just an employee. She could not afford to offend wealthy people like them.
So she looked at Xiao Bei with a bright smile. "Certainly, sir. If you need anything, just call for me!"
Xiao Bei nodded lightly.
Inside the Chanel store, Xiao Bei took Ji Qinglan to look at women's clothing and asked, "Do you see anything you like?"
Ji Qinglan shook her head. Nothing had particularly impressed her yet.
Xiao Bei smiled slightly. He did not ask further, instead browsing on his own.
After looking around, Xiao Bei picked out a pale blue-and-white long dress. He waved Ji Qinglan over. "How about this one? Try it on?"
Ji Qinglan did not refuse. Accompanied by the sales assistant, she went to the fitting room and changed into the dress Xiao Bei had chosen.
Two minutes later, Ji Qinglan emerged in the long dress. Standing before the full-length mirror, she looked at her reflection. To be honest, she was quite satisfied with Xiao Bei's taste and really liked the dress.
Not only was the dress beautiful, it also accentuated Ji Qinglan's stunning beauty and elevated her temperament, giving her an almost holy aura.
At the same time, Ji Qinglan could feel how comfortable the dress was. It was especially breathable, not stuffy at all, and instead gave her a cool, refreshing feeling.
"It looks gorgeous!" Xiao Bei walked over and praised Ji Qinglan.
Ji Qinglan spun around in front of Xiao Bei, then looked at him. "Is the dress prettier, or am I prettier?"
"You're definitely prettier!" Xiao Bei answered without hesitation. To survive a trick question like that, he had to answer properly!
"If I'm prettier, does that mean the dress isn't pretty?" Ji Qinglan deliberately asked, wanting to see how Xiao Bei would answer.
"The dress is beautiful too, but it has no life of its own. Only when you put it on do you give it life. Beauty plus beauty becomes absolute beauty!"
Who was Xiao Bei? His little girlfriends in his previous life had asked him every kind of question imaginable.
How could something like this stump him?
Ji Qinglan was very satisfied with Xiao Bei's answer. As expected of the man she had chosen, his emotional intelligence was truly beyond reproach.
Xiao Bei smiled at her, then called over the sales assistant from earlier. "Wrap this one up. Card payment."
The sales assistant eagerly took Xiao Bei's bank card. After the transaction, she added, "Sir, would you like to select some matching high heels as well?"
Xiao Bei's eyes lit up when he heard that. High heels!
So while Ji Qinglan was changing, Xiao Bei picked out two more pairs of high heels for her. One pair was normal and could be matched with outfits, while the other pair was red.
As for what they were for?
Hehehe! No need to say more!
Only after Ji Qinglan came out did she learn that Xiao Bei had picked two pairs of high heels for her as well.
When she saw the first pair, Ji Qinglan was quite satisfied. But when she saw the second pair, her pretty face immediately flushed crimson.
Without drawing attention to it, she walked over to Xiao Bei and softly said, "Honey, so this is the kind of thing you like!"
Xiao Bei chuckled. His wife really was clever. It seemed she could accurately get everything he was thinking.
So there really was such a thing as hearts in perfect sync!
Seeing Xiao Bei's lecherous grin, Ji Qinglan smiled as well.
After leaving Chanel, Xiao Bei took Ji Qinglan on a shopping spree.
Seeing Xiao Bei constantly buying things for her, Ji Qinglan simply bought him plenty of clothes too!
The two returned with a full haul.
After getting back into the car, Xiao Bei drove straight toward Hangzhou Auto City. He planned to change cars. He had not had the time before, but now that he did, he intended to get himself a supercar.
He drove to a luxury car dealership.
Seeing this, Ji Qinglan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked, "Are you planning to buy a car?"
"Yeah. You can drive this one from now on. I'm planning to order a better one!"
Ji Qinglan smiled faintly and did not refuse. Given Ji Qinglan's family background, buying a car was nothing unusual.
