Chapter 872 - Cousin (1/2)
Far away from Imperial Military Hospital, a white Mercedes enters the parking lot of Blush Tree. The car parks in an empty spot and the driver's door opens.
A healthy-looking man steps out into view. He wore a white tailored suit with a black coat over for warmth.
He walks around the car and opens the passenger door. He held the door in place while his other hand reached inside.
Everything about him was that of a true gentleman.
”Sweetheart, take my hand.”
He smiles with ease, and a slender hand lands on top of his hand.
”Thank you.”
A soft chuckle sounds from the person and comes into view. This person was none other than Ji Chu Hua.
”You're always a gentleman, brother Ting Fei.”
Her smile radiated with elegance. She glowed like a woman in love with the man helping her get out of the car.
”I'm so happy you are free to come here with me despite your busy schedule.”
Gu Ting Fei's heart softened when he saw her smile. Although they do not love each other, they were compatible in each other's arms.
He gently tightens his hold on her hand and helps her get out.
”My schedule is never too busy when it comes to you.”
Ji Chu Hua chuckles at his sweet words. She had forgotten all about Choi Li Sun. She put all her attention on the man in front of her.
”You always know what to say to woo a woman's heart.”
She locks her arm with him and walks towards the store. Anyone who saw them would undoubtedly see them as a couple madly in love with each other.
”Hello, Miss Ji. Welcome to Blush Tree.”
As the two entered the store, a female employee greeted them with a smile.
When she saw Gu Ting Fei, her cheeks flushed ever so slightly at how attractive he looked.
However, she suddenly remembers something and glances at Ji Chu Hua.
The last time she (Ji Chu Hua) was here, she was with a different man. She thought this but pushed it aside as it was not her business.
”Can I help you with anything today?”
Ji Chu Hua sneered inside when she saw the employee turn bashful in front of Gu Ting Fei. However, she takes out her ID card and a receipt before handing them to the employee.
At the same time, she purposely leans closer to the man and presses her chest against his arms.
”I'm here to pick up my dress. Is it ready?”
The employee was quick to return to work mode. She smiles and takes the ID card and receipt.
”Please wait in the room next door. I will bring your dress out.”
Ji Chu Hua holds her head high and walks away with Gu Ting Fei. She steals a glance at him and is satisfied to see that he paid no attention to the employee.
As the employee headed to the back of the store, Ji Chu Hua and Gu Ting Fei sat in the waiting room.
”I wish you were here when I tried on the dress. I couldn't tell if it
looked okay on me.”
Ji Chu Hua spoke in an innocent voice. She looked like a shy girl wanting to impress her boyfriend.
When Gu Ting Fei heard her words, he let out a small laugh. He leans towards her and place a kiss on her cheek.
”Anything you wear will look good.”
He moves away and looks around the room. The waiting area was luxurious, with mannequins adorned in different dresses and jewelry pieces.
An idea came to him, and he looked at the stunning woman sitting next to him.
”How about this? To make up for my absence, let me buy you new dresses. Any that you want.”
Ji Chu Hua's eyes lit up with joy. However, she pretends to be a good girl and shakes her head.
”It's okay. I still have plenty of dresses from you at home.”
Seeing her being so considerate, Gu Ting Fei was touched. He took her by the hand and stood up, bringing her along.
”Even if you have plenty, it doesn't hurt to have more.”
He walked her out of the waiting room and headed for the sales floor.
Since it has been announced that they are in a relationship, he wants to spoil her to keep us his excellent image.
Ji Chu Hua stares at the man's back and smirks. Her innocent facade turns into one with guiltless intentions. She loves it when men spoil her and treat her like a treasure.
Minutes passed by, and Ji Chu Hua didn't hesitate to grab the dresses that caught her eyes. Of course, she didn't forget to look at Gu Ting Fei as if to get his approval.
”Miss Ji, your dress is ready.”
The same employee returns with the news in the middle of their shopping.
She handed the ID card and receipt back to Ji Chu Hua but was baffled by the number of dresses in the man's hands.
”These dresses... Would you like to try them on?”
”No.”
