Chapter 48 Luxurious Shopping
Pa!
Hearing this, Shang Yan closed his book unhappily.
Qu Xiao raised her watery eyes in a daze. Shang Yan pursed his thin lips and moved her hand away from her chest as he said in a cold voice, “I just remembered that there are some things in the company that I need to deal with. I’m afraid that it will affect your rest. You should go to the guest bedroom to sleep first.”
Qu Xiao naturally understood.
Her eyes were filled with resentment as she hugged the pillow. She tugged at the silk blanket to wrap her body, wanting to move to the guest bedroom.
Shang Yan saw that her long and fair legs were exposed. He clenched his fist and pressed it against his lips to cough twice. In the end, he could not bear for her to be cold. “I’ll go to the study. You stay here.”
With that, his figure quickly disappeared outside the door.
Qu Xiao lay on her back and stared at the ceiling. She did not understand where Shang Yan’s change of mood came from!
In the study, Shang Yan stared at the blank computer screen. Thinking of Qu Xiao’s words, he could not help but mutter with a solemn expression, “Are all your actions toward me out of gratitude and repayment? Because I give you a roof over your head and protect you?”
The Orange Sun rose from the thick clouds, and warm light shone through the glass windows.
Shang Yan, who had not slept all night, came to the living room. He saw the busy figures in the kitchen and stared at Qu Xiao.
She was wearing an apron and cutting vegetables nimbly. The boiling pots and pans emitted a tempting aroma. The warmth of family surrounded Shang Yan. Qu Xiao placed bowls and chopsticks on the dining table. She met Shang Yan’s eyes and then greeted him with a sweet smile, “Come and taste my cooking!”
The white porridge was soft and sticky, and it had a sweet taste.
Qu Xiao rested her chin on her hands as she looked at Shang Yan. When she realized that he was eating very well, she let out a sigh of relief and said, “It’s the weekend today. I want to go out for a walk.”
Shang Yan nodded and arranged for the driver to send Qu Xiao to a nearby shopping mall.
Qu Xiao was carrying her handbag as she strolled around on the third floor. After receiving the black card, she wanted to buy a few gifts for Shang Yan and also some daily necessities.
In front of a luxury shop, Qu Xiao saw two women walking towards her. Her temples were throbbing slightly as she cursed her bad luck. Shang Liqing was holding Qu Qi’s arm. The two of them were carrying shopping bags intimately. When they saw Qu Xiao, they were also stunned. Then, they sarcastically said, “Why are you shopping here? This shopping mall is not a market, nor is it a cheap chain store on the street!”
With gauze tied to her left face, Qu Qi clenched her fists and stared at Qu Xiao with clenched teeth.
Qu Xiao did not seem to hear their hostility. She walked into the shop with her head held high and pointed at the two rows of new products as if she was a rich wife. She said to the cashier, “Please wrap these up for me. And also whatever those two young ladies chose. Send them all to my villa. Thank you.”
The cashier was stunned.
Qu Xiao took out a black card and handed it over. She curled the corners of her lips and said, “I’m settling this once and for all.”
Shang Liqing recognized that the black card was Shang Yan’s! She did not expect that her brother was actually willing to pamper her to such an extent.
Qu Qi’s eyes were bloodshot from jealousy. She wanted to rush over and argue with Qu Xiao, but Shang Liqing hurriedly stopped her and dragged her away..
In the villa, Shang Yan received a message from the bank. He glanced at the amount of money spent and paused in surprise. Then, he rubbed his temples and arranged for Li to inform all the department managers of the company to increase their sales by two percent the next quarter.
His wife was too good at spending money. He had to earn more.
In the bustling commercial street, Qu Xiao carried a shopping bag and walked to the door of a seemingly dilapidated shop. The smell of Chinese medicine wafted out from inside.
She removed her sunglasses and looked up to see the words “For sale” under the medicine prescription plaque. She pushed the door open and entered.
“Hello, May I know if the pharmacy is for sale?”
Qu Xiao remembered hearing about this pharmacy before.
From what she remembered, this pharmacy had earned quite a lot of money.
She planned to buy the pharmacy and transform it into a health center. Not only could she earn money, but she could also help Shang Yan’s legs recover. With a plan in mind, she quickly negotiated the price and related matters with the boss and signed the transfer contract.
The boss grabbed a few medicinal herbs according to Qu Xiao’s instructions. He took out a few boxes of commonly used medicine from the counter. He said with a smile that they were samples for her.
Qu Xiao happily carried the things back to the villa. When she saw Shang Yan drinking tea in the living room, she ran over coquettishly.
“Look! I bought these for you! Do you like them?”
Qu Xiao lazily picked up the shopping bag and handed the shirt and coat to Shang Yan.
Seeing that all the things she bought were actually for him, Shang Yan was moved and wanted to reply, but from the corner of his eye, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a box in a plastic bag. The curvature of his lips gradually stiffened.
She actually went to buy an aphrodisiac?
