Chapter 409: Encounter at a Suit Shop
In order to prepare a gift for Huo Qingzhou, Zhou Ning took Ruan Huan to a shopping mall in her spare time.
The two of them strolled around leisurely.
Ruan Huan: "Since you started working, have you felt that we spend less time shopping alone?"
Zhou Ning nodded instinctively when she heard that, and couldn't help but think of the times when they were in school and would occasionally go shopping alone.
Now that we each have our own jobs, it’s inevitable that we don’t have free time.
Fortunately, we have not been separated for so many years.
Suddenly, while walking, Ruan Huan stopped, looked somewhere with a dazed look.
Zhou Ning looked in the direction Ruan Huan was looking at in confusion and saw the center of the square. Just as he was about to ask, Ruan Huan's voice rang in his ears.
"Do you remember the days when we set up stalls and sang together? I was scared to be alone at that time, and you always made time to accompany me."
Zhou Ning understood and instantly remembered the past days.
Suddenly I realized that several years had passed.
It turns out that time passes so quickly and always slips away inadvertently.
However, the two did not continue to recall the past. If they continued to think about it, it would take too long and their emotions would be affected.
I really can't think of what birthday gift to give Huo Qingzhou. I have given him almost all the gifts I could think of in the past. This time, Zhou Ning plans to give him a gift he needs.
Perhaps the gifts before marriage are given with romance in mind.
But after the wedding, more consideration is given to practicality of gifts.
She knew that no matter what the gift was, as long as it was from her, Huo Qingzhou would be very happy.
As they were walking around, they came to a suit shop.
Thinking about Huo Qingzhou's job, he often had to wear suits, which was considered a necessity. Zhou Ning immediately decided to choose a nice-looking suit and buy it for Huo Qingzhou.
Ruan Huan stayed beside Zhou Ning and helped her choose.
The two of them picked out several pieces, but Zhou Ning was not very satisfied with any of them.
I know that Huo Qingzhou has very high standards and is particular about what he wears, so I can't just buy him casually.
After changing several stores, I finally found one that I was quite satisfied with. After careful selection, I finally chose one that I was satisfied with in every aspect.
Zhou Ning pointed at the clothes on display and asked, "What do you think of this dress?"
Ruan Huan looked at it and her eyes lit up: "Ning Ning, you have a good taste. I think this dress is really nice. If your Mr. Huo wears it, he will definitely look super handsome."
Zhou Ning smiled happily and became more certain of her inner choice.
Then I confirmed the size with the store clerk.
Prepare to buy it in a package.
The clerk saw Zhou Ning without hesitation, and looked at the price of the clothes without blinking an eye. He knew he was a wealthy man, so he did not dare to neglect him.
Ruan Huan imagined Fu Hechuan wearing this suit, and couldn't help but curl his lips and blurt out: "This style is really good, I will buy it for Hechuan next time."
"You smile so sweetly," Zhou Ning deliberately joked, "Now no matter what I see, I always think of your lover."
"Hey, Ningning, please stop teasing me."
Ruan Huan blushed for a moment.
The clerk had packed the items and Zhou Ning was about to pay when a familiar voice came from far away.
Zhou Ning looked back and found Lin Kaichen walking towards her.
She said hello.
Lin Kaichen took the initiative to explain: "I just happened to come here to take a look, what a coincidence, I ran into you."
"Yeah, what a coincidence." Zhou Ning responded casually.
Ruan Huan had never seen Lin Kaichen before and looked at him curiously. After Zhou Ning introduced him, the two met each other.
Lin Kaichen glanced at the bag of clothes placed aside, walked over and asked, "Is this the clothes you want to buy?"
Not wanting to reveal too many personal matters, Zhou Ning simply nodded.
I was surprised to find that Lin Kaichen casually took out a card from his pocket.
"We have met by chance, why don't you let me pay the bill."
As he said this, he was about to hand the card to the clerk.
Zhou Ning was almost startled. She didn't expect Lin Kaichen to be so enthusiastic. She quickly stopped him, handed the card back, and shook her head: "No need."
"It's okay. You don't have to worry about me spending money. I just simply feel that we have met. I had a great time interviewing you before, so I wanted to express my gratitude."
"Boss Lin, we are not related, you don't have to do this, otherwise I will feel psychologically burdened," Zhou Ning confessed, "Also, this is the clothes I bought for my husband."
When he heard Huo Qingzhou mentioned, Lin Kaichen's eyebrows twitched slightly.
He randomly took the card back and said, "I have always been a simple and enthusiastic person, but I didn't expect to bring you a burden. I'm sorry."
After a few simple greetings, Zhou Ning prepared to leave with Ruan Huan.
Regardless of whether Lin Kaichen is enthusiastic or for other reasons, Zhou Ning will keep his distance and respect everyone's personality traits.
Just as she was about to pull Ruan Huan away, she heard the man's voice again:
"I just happen to want to buy a suit, Zhou Ning. I think you have very high standards. Why don't you take some time to help me choose one?"
Zhou Ning smiled tactfully: "Sorry, my taste is not very good."
Lin Kaichen raised the corner of his mouth gently: "You have to have confidence in your own vision. If your vision is not high, how can you be with Mr. Huo?"
Zhou Ning opened her mouth slightly but was unable to refute.
I always feel that there is something else behind Lin Kaichen's words.
Lin Kaichen suddenly said sympathetically: "If you find it troublesome, it's okay. I can just pick one at random. I don't need to waste your time."
The sudden change in tone made Zhou Ning feel a little confused.
The expression on Lin Kaichen's face clearly showed that he really wanted to seek help.
In addition, his tone was sincere. If she refused at this time, it would make her look wrong. What's more, Lin Kaichen had saved her in the past.
If Lin Kaichen had not shown up in time that night, she was really worried that Director Liu would succeed in the end, and the course of events would most likely have been changed.
However, Zhou Ning also knew very well that helping a man choose clothes was something that only people who were relatively close or familiar with him would do.
Zhou Ning looked around tactfully and said in general terms: "Boss Lin, I just looked at the styles in this store and I think they are all very good, especially the suits over there. You can take a look at them. After all, everyone has different preferences. You can choose according to the style you like."
"But I think you have a good taste. I'm afraid I'll be overwhelmed by so many clothes. Why don't you help me pick one out?"
"..."
Ruan Huan, who was standing aside, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly noticed the look Zhou Ning was giving him. An idea suddenly came to his mind, and he immediately covered his stomach.
"Ningning, my stomach hurts so much, please come quickly..."
"Stomachache?" Zhou Ning immediately supported Ruan Huan anxiously, "Huanhuan, don't worry, I'll take you to see a doctor."
Then he looked at Lin Kaichen apologetically.
Lin Kaichen narrowed his eyes, and his expression soon changed: "Since your friend has a stomachache, take her to see a doctor. Health is the most important thing. You can come to me if you need any help."
Zhou Ning responded and immediately took Ruan Huan out of the store.
Little did he know that Lin Kaichen was staring at the woman's back as she left, lost in thought.
After a moment, he looked away and asked the clerk, "Which suit did the lady buy just now?"
