Chapter 348 - 301: No Need for You to Compromise_2
"Mm, okay." After Cen Jin agreed, she took out her phone and called Liu Zhiyan, asking where she was and if she had time.When Liu Zhiyan received Cen Jin’s call, her heart skipped a beat, already preparing for the worst. After a moment of silence, she said, "Sister Cen Jin, can it be in the evening? I have some private matters now and I can’t leave."
"Okay, see you in the evening then. Let’s meet at Shangxia Ke where we ate last time! Is seven o’clock okay?" Cen Jin replied calmly, not insisting that she meet her now nor did she want to apply pressure. She asked her about the address.
"Okay."
"Mm, well then... goodbye."
At that moment, Jiang Baizhou, who just got into the car and hadn’t yet started it, saw her hang up the phone, rolled down the window, and asked, "What’s up?"
Cen Jin shrugged and walked around the car to open the passenger door, sitting in and fastening her seatbelt: "She said she has something going on now and can only come in the evening. It doesn’t matter, it’s just a matter of a few hours. Didn’t you say you would accompany me shopping? Speaking of which, we haven’t gone shopping in a while, and now there are many new arrivals, will you come with me to check them out?" Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by NoveI-Fire.ɴet
Jiang Baizhou smiled, and it was evident she was in a much better mood than before. He nodded in agreement, "Sure, I don’t have much going on this afternoon."
When they arrived at Changxing Road, Jiang Baizhou parked the car in Jiayun Mall’s parking lot, and Cen Jin dragged him to start browsing women’s clothing from the third floor. Perhaps it was because she hadn’t shopped in a long time, Cen Jin’s elegance was quite good. She wasn’t affected by the plagiarism incident in the competition, nor did she care about online developments.
Actually, Cen Jin always had a fear of making choices, but Jiang Baizhou was famously decisive. So, every time she tried on clothes, Cen Jin would try on the ones she liked and ask for his opinion. As long as Jiang Baizhou said okay, she would have the sales assistants package them up. In just an hour, Cen Jin visited only four stores, and Jiang Baizhou was already holding five or six bags.
Looking at the bags in his hands and her enthusiastic expression, Jiang Baizhou felt a bit helpless. Before he could finish his thought, Cen Jin dragged him into another store, asking the assistant if she could try on the clothes on the mannequin by the entrance.
Hearing this, Jiang Baizhou tilted his head to glance at the outfit she mentioned. It was a spring set skirt, with the top being an orange chiffon off-the-shoulder blouse, and the puff sleeves design looked very girly. The bottom was a white slit pencil skirt, which made it look elegant, even a bit sexy.
Imagining how she would look in the outfit, Jiang Baizhou’s brows furrowed deeper and deeper. When the assistant said it could be tried on and was about to take the clothes off the mannequin, Jiang Baizhou firmly grabbed Cen Jin’s hand, coldly interrupting their conversation: "No need, thank you." After saying that, he pulled Cen Jin out of the store.
Cen Jin was baffled as she was yanked out, staring at him in confusion, pulling her hand from his grasp: "What are you doing? I haven’t tried on the clothes yet!"
"No need to try."
"Why not?"
"Not good looking."
"Not good looking?" Cen Jin asked, turning to glance again at the outfit on the mannequin: "I think it’s quite good looking! What part isn’t?"
"All of it, let’s go to the next store." Jiang Baizhou’s handsome face showed a moment of disdain as he slightly dismissed the outfit with a glance, then took her small hand again and walked forward.
"But... I think that outfit is really nice! It would look elegant! Pair it with some high heels, and it’d be stunning, perfectly fitting the vibe of ’I’m the most beautiful on this street’. The last time I saw Ling Ran wearing a similar set, I wanted to buy one myself." Cen Jin had always yearned for that kind of strong, cool style, but unfortunately never had the opportunity to try it. Sometimes, she actually envied Lu Shishu’s fashion style.
"It’s not right for you."
"Why?" Cen Jin pouted, glaring at him angrily: "What do you mean it’s not suitable for me?"
Seeing how persistent she was, Jiang Baizhou couldn’t help but smile helplessly. He pulled her forcefully into his arms, lowered his head, and kissed her forehead: "You’re suited for more ethereal clothes, like... the one you’re wearing now."
Upon hearing this, Cen Jin looked down at her cream-colored long dress, raised her eyes at him, and squinted, "I remember last time at Ling Ran’s house for her birthday celebration, you didn’t say that."
