Chapter 268 Just simple neutral (2/2)
The couple soon left the hospital. Inside the car, Lu Tian did not drive in the direction of Jade Condos. Instead, he took another route towards another part of the city.
In the passenger seat, Yue Ling scoff a sigh. She cross her arms over her chest and tilt her head at the man driving.
”Now where are we going?”
Lu Tian glance at her from the corner of his eyes. Steering the wheel with one hand, his free hand reach over and held her hand. Leaning to the side, he place a kiss on the back of her hand.
”The baby store.”
”.....”
————
Arriving at the baby store, Yue Ling and Lu Tian picked out all the necessary and unnecessary things needed. However, because they don't know the gender of their baby, they chose everything in neutral colors. No pinks or blues. Just simple neutral.
Looking around, on a glass shelf, Yue Ling sees a pair white baby shoes. She walks over to it and held it up. It was so small and tiny, just like her baby on the monitor screen.
The doctor had told her that she six and a half weeks pregnant. Her and baby's health are normal, but for her to not over stress herself.
She stare at the white shoes in her hand and a image came to her head. Little chubby feet wearing the shoes in her hand.
”Do you like it?”
Lu Tian's voice trail into her ear. She smiles at him, then back to the shoes in her hand. Just from that one smile, Lu Tian already knew her answer. He turns his head and gesture to a worker.
”Wrap this up too.”
Hearing this, Yue Ling tilt her head and pout. Aren't they buying a little too much? What if she sees something else at another store? Well, either way, she'll still purchase it, but still.... Lu Tian's been doing the paying only? Is she really that cheap?
She stretch an arm out and stops Lu Tian, ”Wait!”
Lu Tian arch a brow at the sudden request, yet he does not say anything. His expression was enough to tell her to explain her 'wait.'
”A-hem!”
Yue Ling clears her throat and raise her chin, to make herself looks taller, even though Lu Tian is still taller than her.
”Tian, I think it's only fair if I pay for half of these items. After all, how can I let you pay for everything?”
”....”
He stare at her with a dumbfounded expression. He ponder in thoughts about her words, then in a quick second, he turns to the worker.
”Why are you still standing there? Wrap everything up.”
The worker nods her head and quickly leaves to wrap all the items they had picked out. She could not mess this up at all.
Totally ignored, Yue Ling's eyes turned lazy and her posture turned hunch. Did this man did not hear her the words coming out of her mouth?
Looking down at the baby shoes still in her hand, she suddenly sees Lu Tian reach for it. With a quick reaction, she moves her hand and hide the shoes behind her back.
”Tian, let me buy these. I don't want you to pay everything with your money.”
”.....”
Lu Tian's body froze and his hand reach for the baby shoes also froze when he heard her words. If he was not a cold and aloof person, he was sure he would of fell head first to the floor.
Sighing, he straightens his posture. He takes a step closer to her until there was only a few inches separating them. He lift a hand and pinch her nose.
”Silly woman, my money is your money.”
Yue Ling's body slightly jumped at his words. Not because she was scared, but because of Lu Tian's unexpectedness. She stare unblinkingly at the man and couldn't find any word in her head.
Seeing her stuck in a daze, Lu Tian was beaming with satisfaction inside. His other hand reaches around her and takes the baby shoes from her hand.
As he did so, he didn't forget to steal a quick kiss on her alluring plump lips. Even more satisfied, he turns around and walks away to have the baby shoes wrapped too.
He thought about what he said to her and he liked the feeling of always spoiling her. He finally understood why his father worked so hard in life for his family.
