Chapter 247: They Are in a Relationship
CHAPTER 247: CHAPTER 247: THEY ARE IN A RELATIONSHIP
The baby clothes come in various styles, each design so exquisite.
Zhang Miaoyan looked at the little dresses and shoes, feeling that these baby items were incredibly cute. Ai Xi baby was beautiful, and imagining Ai Xi wearing these little dresses made her heart melt.
The saleswoman noticed Zhang Miaoyan looking at the little dresses for baby girls and said, "These clothes are all new arrivals, made from comfortable material that won’t harm the baby’s delicate skin. If you buy them with shoes, you can get a discount. Ma’am, you can buy them together for the baby."
Zhang Miaoyan glanced at Xie Yuchen, wanting to explain that they weren’t a couple. Xie Yuchen told her, "You choose."
With that, he indirectly confirmed that they were there to buy clothes for their own child.
Zhang Miaoyan was frustrated. Why is he always like this, never explaining clearly and not realizing that she would overthink?
She looked at a few more clothes, liking them more and more, and didn’t bother arguing with Xie Yuchen. Holding up a dress along with a small hat and shoes, she showed them to Xie Yuchen, "What do you think, does it look good?"
Xie Yuchen saw the smile on her face, his gaze softening. Without even looking at the clothes, he just stared at her and said, "Looks good."
It wasn’t clear if he was talking about the clothes or her.
Zhang Miaoyan’s heart started beating faster. She turned away, "I’ll keep looking."
She fiddled with the clothes on the rack, and suddenly Xie Yuchen walked behind her. He reached up to get a dress from her upper right side, "This one looks good."
He was so close, his arm movement almost enveloping her in his embrace. Zhang Miaoyan’s face heated up, feeling like she was about to faint.
If she turned around now, she’d bump into his chest.
With nowhere to go either forward or backward, Zhang Miaoyan didn’t dare move. Yet Xie Yuchen asked her, "Do you like it?"
His voice sounded right in her ear. Zhang Miaoyan couldn’t think straight. She looked up at the dress he pointed to and bumped the back of her head against his chest.
Flustered, Zhang Miaoyan turned around, and the clothes in her hand were still attached to the rack, almost making her fall.
With quick reflexes, Xie Yuchen steadied her by the waist, half-holding her in his arms.
Zhang Miaoyan smelled his light scent, the male pheromones made her mind go blank.
With the soft fragrance in his arms, Xie Yuchen couldn’t help but lower his head. The saleswoman came over to organize the clothes, "I’m really sorry, our items weren’t well arranged. Are you okay, Ma’am?"
Zhang Miaoyan hurriedly stepped away from Xie Yuchen and stood upright, using the clothes to cover her face. Oh my, so embarrassing!
Would Xie Yuchen laugh at her for throwing herself at him?
She hit her head with her hand, swearing never to let this happen again!
Xie Yuchen glanced at the saleswoman, his voice turning cold, "Let’s look at some others." This saleswoman was really lacking in perception.
The saleswoman felt the chill from this gentleman, not daring to promote the clothes any further, "Ma’am, please take your time. Let us know if you need any assistance."
Zhang Miaoyan continued to look at the clothes while keeping an eye on Xie Yuchen behind her. Seeing that he didn’t come closer, she felt a bit relieved and also a bit disappointed.
Does he dislike her again?
She didn’t do it on purpose just now!
Zhang Miaoyan forced herself to focus on picking clothes and unconsciously picked several sets, "Every piece is so pretty, what should I do?"
Xie Yuchen said, "If you like them, then buy them all."
Zhang Miaoyan glanced at the price, it was more expensive than her own clothes.
Feeling a bit pained, she still took them all. Buying something expensive for Jun Xi’s child wasn’t a big deal. The Gu Family had been kind to her, and she couldn’t be stingy with the money.
Besides, President Gu would surely buy the best for his daughter.
Deng Rou came out of the supermarket, followed by two maids, carrying all kinds of supplements that she had specially prepared for her son to take to his apartment and cook for him when she had the time.
Her son focused only on work, rarely coming home, just like Yi Ke, with no pursuit for life, boring indeed.
She and her husband had worried for decades, wondering when they’d finally have a grandchild?
Heading towards the elevator, one of the maids suddenly approached and pointed ahead, "Ma’am, look, it’s the young master."
Deng Rou looked over and through the floor-to-ceiling window of the nearby maternity store, she indeed saw her son inside.
Why was Yu Chen in a maternity store?
As she wondered, a young and pretty girl holding several sets of baby clothes walked over to Yu Chen as if asking for his opinion.
Deng Rou quickly hid behind a pillar, telling the two maids to hide as well. She was extremely excited, could it be that her son was in love?
Who was this girl, she looked somewhat familiar. Why were they buying baby clothes? Could they... Deng Rou’s questions piled up. Initially just guessing, but seeing her son put several clothes on the counter and the girl behind him touching her belly, covering her mouth and dry heaving a few times.
Deng Rou quickly took out her phone to take photos as evidence. This brat knew his parents were anxious, had a girlfriend but didn’t bring her home to meet them. Now with a baby on the way, how long did he plan to keep it a secret, not giving the girl a proper status?
Where did he learn to be so irresponsible, she didn’t raise her son like this!
Deng Rou felt both elated and angry, really wanting to go up and care for her future daughter-in-law. There were so many things to be careful about during pregnancy, and young people wouldn’t understand.
Xie Yuchen noticed Zhang Miaoyan’s discomfort. He turned to ask her, "What’s wrong?"
Zhang Miaoyan covered her belly, embarrassed, and said, "My stomach doesn’t feel well, and my throat is a bit dry."
Due to her period, she was slightly anemic.
Seeing her hand on her belly, Xie Yuchen took out his card to pay and asked the saleswoman, "Do you have warm water?"
"Yes, please wait a moment." Another saleswoman quickly brought over a cup of warm water for Zhang Miaoyan.
"Thank you." Zhang Miaoyan drank a few sips. Seeing Xie Yuchen pay, she went to pick out two more pairs of shoes and a toy, "I’ll pay for these."
Xie Yuchen stopped her, "I’ll do it. Consider it all a gift from us."
Without waiting for her to refuse, he had the sales clerk charge it to his card directly.
Zhang Miaoyan was puzzled. He paid for everything, how was that from "us"?
Something felt off.
Before she could figure it out, two saleswomen had packed up their purchases into three large bags.
Xie Yuchen picked up the bags with one hand, leaving the other free to support her. Zhang Miaoyan, holding the toy, quickly walked ahead, "Let’s go back quickly."
With his hand left hanging, Xie Yuchen’s face turned angry. He called after her, "Don’t walk too fast."
Zhang Miaoyan slowed her pace to walk beside him. When they passed a vending machine, Xie Yuchen stopped to buy her a cup of ginger tea.
Zhang Miaoyan took it, feeling the warmth spread to her hands, and her face became hot as well.
Mr. Xie knew how to care for others too? Or was it just convenient for him?
Deng Rou now felt even more certain, believing firmly that they were in a relationship.
