Chapter 278: Two hundred seventy-eight Is this filming a movie?_1

Gu Chen chuckled, his tone unhurried.

"Please do me a favor and inquire about this building. If it’s for sale, please let me know. Of course, if it’s not for sale, please also let me know."

What did his origins have to do with wanting to buy a building?

Money never differentiated between out-of-towners and locals.

If it’s for sale, sell it; if not, forget about it.

"Alright, alright, we’ll get in touch in a bit."

Manager Wang said and then hung up the phone.

He placed the phone on the desk and collected his emotions.

To be honest, he never expected someone to buy the building.

After all, it was a commercial building, not residential housing!

Only those big bosses could afford such a purchase.

But if he could facilitate this deal, he would definitely make a good sum.

Maybe even a nice commission.

With that thought, he got a bit excited, rubbed his hands together, cleared his throat, and phoned his own boss.

Meanwhile, Ji Pianran had been looking around for quite some time but still hadn’t decided which piece of clothing to buy.

It wasn’t because they weren’t attractive, but because each piece was well made.

Feeling that this one looked good and that one wasn’t bad either, naturally it was hard to make a choice.

Seeing her indecisive expression, Gu Chen walked over and smiled at her.

"What’s the matter, you don’t like any?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Pianran shook her head, her eyes earnest.

"Actually, they’re all pretty good, but if I really have to pick a favorite, I can’t quite say."

Watching Ji Pianran’s perplexed look, Gu Chen couldn’t help but reach out and scratch her nose, his face full of teasing.

"So silly, making choices is for children, adults should take them all."

Having said that, he was about to call the salesperson to pack up all the clothes she liked.

Hearing Kungfu Chen say this, Ji Pianran gasped, hastily covering his mouth with her hand.

She knew Gu Chen too well; as long as she liked something, he wouldn’t even look at the price, no matter how expensive, he would buy it!

If it had been just one item, that would have been fine, but she had liked so many, seven or eight pieces in total, which would amount to quite a sum.

She had only mentioned it casually, not that she really had to buy them.

Besides, she couldn’t possibly wear all of them even if she tried.

"Don’t be impulsive, just help me pick one," she said hastily.

Gu Chen watched his wife’s anxious demeanor and, holding back a laugh, nodded in agreement.

"Okay."

Seeing Gu Chen agree, Ji Pianran then relaxed her hand, "Let’s have a look."

Gu Chen pretended to be obedient, nodding his head, then turned around to help her choose clothes.

He hadn’t looked twice when his gaze fell upon a black spaghetti strap dress made of silk, with an off-shoulder design, flattering to the waist, and with a slit—it was full of design elements.

Gu Chen pointed at that dress, turning to Ji Pianran and asking, "How about that one?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Pianran looked toward the dress, and her immediate reaction was one of shock.

"Isn’t that a bit too revealing?"

Because of her upbringing and having spent three years isolated in a village, she was unaware of current fashion trends and therefore very conservative.

Hearing her, Gu Chen’s eyebrows twitched with some confusion, his face struggling for words.

"You’re worried about this after wearing fishnets?"

She had worn fishnets to seduce him that day!

Gu Chen remembered it very clearly!

Ji Pianran had not expected Gu Chen to bring that up, and her pretty face instantly flushed red, as if dabbed with light rouge, very attractive indeed.

For a long while, she looked up at Gu Chen opposite her, her bright eyes dazzling, with a light that was piercingly aggressive.

"You, you’re bullying me!"

She had dressed up like this because she thought he liked it.

And now he was actually making fun of her!

It was really too much!

Gu Chen patted her head and walked over to the clothes, taking down the garment and stuffing it into her arms, "Go try it on, you’ll definitely look good."

Ji Pianran gave Gu Chen an annoyed look and took the clothes into the fitting room.

After a while, she changed her clothes and walked out.

Undeniably, she was naturally a beautiful creature, with snow-white and delicate skin that when combined with the black dress made her look exceptionally noble. The hint of charm at the corner of her eyes only added a touch of cold elegance to her whole persona.

The slender and graceful neck, her delicate arms, and the waist that one could grasp with a hand—every asset was magnified by the form-fitting dress.

Gorgeously stunning.

And most importantly, the dress had a slit, which was precisely at the thigh, revealing her fair and long legs intermittently with every step, truly tantalizing.

Gu Chen took one look and was instantly captivated.

She blinked, her curling, dense eyelashes trembling, and looked at Gu Chen seriously.

"Does it look good?"

As Gu Chen gazed at the astonishing beauty before him, his heartbeat involuntarily skipped a beat, thinking he must have accumulated good karma over several lifetimes to marry such a beautiful wife.

The sales assistant had been waiting outside, and upon seeing Ji Pianran in the new clothes, her eyes widened in amazement as she extravagantly complimented.

"Oh my god, that looks amazing. It’s absolutely as if it’s tailored just for you. If you go out in this dress, the rate of second glances will definitely be one hundred percent!"

Her exaggerated tone brought Gu Chen, who had been staring blankly at Ji Pianran, back to reality.

He swallowed and promptly stuffed Ji Pianran back into the fitting room.

"Wait, wait a minute, I think this outfit isn’t suitable for you, I didn’t look carefully just now, let me choose another one for you."

After speaking, he left a completely bewildered Ji Pianran behind and stepped out of the fitting room.

Standing at the entrance, he took a deep breath.

If his wife were to go out in such an outfit, how many people would stare?

Especially those white legs!

The slit almost reached her waist!

No way, it absolutely cannot be worn out!

He didn’t want every man to look at his wife’s legs the moment she stepped out, and Gu Chen admitted that he was indeed a bit petty about this matter.

But there was no helping it, he just couldn’t stand it!

He looked around and picked a few more conservative dresses, which also had nice fabric and good craftsmanship. He took them into the fitting room and handed them all to Ji Pianran in a rush.

"These, these suit you better!"

After speaking, he walked out with his head lowered.

Seeing this, the sales assistant couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh. She wasn’t young and had experienced many things; this was obviously a handsome young man who was afraid of his wife attracting other men’s gazes.

To be blunt, he was being petty.

But why was this pettiness so adorable?

He must be very, very in love to be so cautious.

At the assistant’s laughter, Gu Chen became embarrassed.

He glanced at the sales assistant, "Sister, pack up all the clothes she looked at earlier, as long as she didn’t say she didn’t like them."

He had come to buy clothes for his wife and child, after all.

He let her pack up the clothes, which was a good way to ease the awkwardness.

Upon hearing Gu Chen say he wanted all the clothes his wife had looked at to be packed, the sales assistant’s face showed surprise. She instinctively looked towards the entrance to make sure there were no cameras, then turned her head back in disbelief.

"Are you sure we’re not shooting a movie?"

This kind of scene was something she had only seen in movies. She’d been selling clothes for so many years and this was the first time she’d encountered such a situation!
