The staff took out the doll.

"This one?"

The pink Peppa Pig doll was thirty centimeters tall, looking soft and cute, wearing pink and blue overalls, holding a lollipop in its hand.

The craftsmanship of dolls in this place was haphazard, with white threads sticking out everywhere, as rough as could be.

In the past, the pampered Mr. Cui would never have looked twice at such cheap factory-made dolls.

However, today he seemed very enthusiastic, picking up the doll to examine it closely. He suddenly held the doll next to Gu Linxi’s face, with a focused expression, as if he was comparing something earnestly.

Gu Linxi frowned, pursed her lips tightly, turning her head to look, "What are you doing?"

"Don’t move." Before she could see clearly, he had already held her head steady, "Don’t move, let me take another look."

He leaned in so close that his breath fell onto Gu Linxi’s face, his deep peach blossom eyes were sparkling as if filled with light, incredibly beautiful. Staring at them prolonged, one might feel as if they were being drawn into them, his deep eye sockets were strikingly heroic.

"... Are you done?"

Her heartbeat involuntarily started to race, her neck stiff, wanting to move but not daring to.

The few minutes felt endlessly long, the noisy background of the arcade seemed to disappear, leaving only his increasingly magnified handsome face right in front of her.

Gu Linxi’s ears turned red, she wanted to hide her abnormal reaction, took a big step back, covered her face, and muttered nonchalantly, "Isn’t the air conditioning on? It’s so hot. Once you’ve picked, let’s go out."

"Wait a minute."

Cui Jiangjing pulled her back over.

Actually, he had already noticed the light blush spreading on her cheeks, and her awkward posture not knowing where to place her hands and feet. He simply found it adorable, inadvertently drawn by her charm, which is why he made her stand there for so long on purpose.

He knew well the character of this little woman, if he joked with her, it would be tough to see her looking nervous again.

Pretending not to notice, he straightened up, holding the Peppa Pig doll in front of her, seriously asking, "Honey, don’t you think it looks like you?"

Gu Linxi, "?"

Gu Linxi, "!"

The pink doll almost plastered to her face, she stared at the exaggerated styled doll, furrowing her brows, before pushing it away with effort, "Is something wrong with you?"

You’re the pig! Your whole family are pigs!

Gu Linxi was furious yet couldn’t show her pettiness, holding in her breath, she didn’t even want to look at him anymore, taking the lead to walk out, "Hurry and choose, the smoke smell is too much, I’ll go get some air. Once you’ve picked what you want, come out."

Saying so, she didn’t give Cui Jiangjing a chance to stop her and walked away briskly... 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Cui Jiangjing watched her hastily escaping back, his thin lips couldn’t help but curl higher and higher, finally cracking the elegant facade he usually maintained, laughing heartily, his eyes almost bending with joy!

"Hahaha."

My woman is really freaking adorable!

So adorable! Adorable to the point I want to hide her away.

After laughing enough, he turned around, holding the Peppa Pig doll and placed it on the counter, asking the staff, "Can I redeem this?"

The staff glanced at the basket of coupons he placed aside, not even counting them, said, "Of course."

The staff, "That requires 256 coupons, and you definitely have more than 256 here, feel free to redeem something else."

Holding the Peppa Pig in his hand, feeling extremely joyful, he replied in a deep, sexy voice, soothingly, "No, I just want this one."

In a world full of countless splendors, he merely wanted to capture that one glimmer tonight.
