Chapter 142: Chapter 103: A Tacit Understanding

It wasn’t a bad deal for her in the slightest.

Feeling the searing heat radiating from Qi Sheng’s palm, the corners of Pei Yinyin’s mouth curled up.

In this flirtatious atmosphere, she was getting more and more swept up in the moment.

Compared to National Gold and Taikoo Li, which were filled with luxury brands, the stores at Yofang were more focused on affordable luxury and trendy labels, with much more accessible prices.

Qi Sheng pulled Pei Yinyin along on a shopping spree, visiting every single brand-name store on the first floor.

He picked out over a dozen outfits and pairs of shoes for Pei Yinyin, enough for her to go two weeks without repeating an outfit.

"So cheap. All this only cost 120,000."

Qi Sheng thought it was cheap, but Pei Yinyin certainly didn’t see it that way.

This was as much as she made in an entire year.

They had clearly agreed she would just try on clothes, but whenever Qi Sheng thought something looked good, he would tell the sales associate to wrap it up.

By the end, she didn’t even dare to try anything on anymore.

It couldn’t be helped that she was so beautiful and had such a great figure.

In those beautiful clothes, she was simply stunning.

This greatly pleased President Qi, who immediately went on a shopping spree for her.

Gu Feng had to make several trips back and forth, stuffing the car’s trunk to the brim.

"It’s getting late. I’ll take you home."

Qi Sheng looked at his watch, acting very much the gentleman.

"Mm..."

For some reason, Pei Yinyin’s heart skipped a beat.

She had a vague sense of his intentions.

But when she thought about how Qi Sheng had just bought her so many clothes, and the sight of the sales staff all praising how lucky she was, she found she had unconsciously accepted him as her boyfriend.

......

Longxiang Garden.

Qi Sheng had been here once before, when he helped Xu Ying move.

The complex was a resettlement housing project, so one couldn’t expect much from the surroundings.

Gu Feng tossed the guard at the gate a pack of Hetianxia cigarettes.

The guard promptly raised the barrier, letting the car into the complex.

Following Pei Yinyin’s directions, the car stopped downstairs from her building.

As a prospective boyfriend, Qi Sheng would never drop the ball when it was time to step up.

Carrying bags of all sizes, he went upstairs with Pei Yinyin.

The apartment building was over ten years old, its walls pitted and uneven.

"Keep your voice down. Don’t let the neighbors hear."

Pei Yinyin was a little nervous; this was the first time she had ever brought a guy home.

"Don’t worry."

Qi Sheng smiled and nodded. He wasn’t an idiot.

Once the door was open, Pei Yinyin changed her shoes.

She quickly took the various bags from Qi Sheng’s hands.

"I don’t have any men’s slippers here. This pair is what Xu Ying wears when she comes over."

Pei Yinyin handed Qi Sheng a pair of pink slippers.

She then began to put things away, showing no intention of telling Qi Sheng to leave.

Naturally, Qi Sheng wouldn’t bring it up either; he was dying for an excuse to stay.

Sitting on the sofa, he looked at the apartment’s cozy decorations.

They were clearly all personal touches added by Pei Yinyin herself.

"How much is the rent here?"

"Two thousand a month. With utilities and internet, it’s about twenty-three hundred."

Pei Yinyin looked at her small wardrobe and was suddenly faced with a happy problem.

She already had plenty of clothes, and now she’d bought over a dozen more outfits today.

The wardrobe, which wasn’t large to begin with, was now completely out of space.

Qi Sheng walked into the bedroom, saw Pei Yinyin’s conflicted expression, and couldn’t help but tease her with a smile.

"How about I get you a bigger apartment? That way you won’t have to worry about running out of space for your clothes."

"I’d rather not."

Pei Yinyin rolled her eyes at him. ’That would be like throwing a meat bun at a dog—a complete waste.’

"I’m going to take a shower."

Without waiting for Pei Yinyin to answer, Qi Sheng walked towards the bathroom.

"Rascal."

Seeing how shameless he was, Pei Yinyin blushed and muttered.

But she still obediently went to get one of her own bath towels and handed it to Qi Sheng, who had just taken off his shirt.

Seeing Qi Sheng’s eight-pack abs and well-defined pecs,

Pei Yinyin’s face turned red enough to cook an egg on.

’But who doesn’t love looking at a handsome guy?’

’Besides, a handsome guy with an eight-pack? He’s just too captivating.’
