Chapter 279: 279 Manager Wang’s phone_1

This remark totally amused Gu Chen.

He chuckled, "Of course not."

He had come to buy clothes for his wife in the first place!

Not to shoot a movie!

Upon hearing this, the salesperson breathed a sigh of relief and also laughed.

"To be honest, both of you make such a good-looking couple, just like the definition of handsome man and beautiful woman. And you speak with such generosity, I really thought you were here to shoot a movie."

Then she hurriedly added, "Please wait, I’ll go pack up the clothes."

Having said that, she quickly walked towards the rack where Ji Pianran had browsed just before, feeling secretly thrilled.

This was it, the path to making a fortune, to making a fortune!

She had seen at least ten outfits, and from these ten, she could make a commission of at least one hundred and fifty yuan!

After changing into the dress, Ji Pianran walked out.

She looked at Gu Chen earnestly, "How about this one?"

This time, she wore a yellow sundress with a floral pattern, looking very pretty, like something from Bohemian fashion.

It looked fresh and beautiful, and even carried a faint hint of exotic charm.

Gu Chen nodded with satisfaction.

"Looks nice!"

Hearing this, Ji Pianran smiled, "I think so too."

The black one before had indeed been pretty, but she didn’t really like styles that were too bold. She preferred something more conservative, something that was pretty and convenient too.

Having said that, Ji Pianran turned to call the waiter to ask for the price.

But, glancing around, she found no one in sight.

Driven by curiosity, she couldn’t help asking, "Where is everyone? Weren’t they just here?"

After her question, she raised her voice and called out, "Hello, is anyone there?"

Hearing her, the salesperson, carrying several large and small bags, emerged from the storage room, approaching them with an eager smile and quick steps.

"Here, here, of course here. I was just packing your clothes. Your husband is so good to you, buying so many clothes just like that."

Ji Pianran was a wealthy wife, so she certainly couldn’t be neglected.

After speaking, she turned to Gu Chen with a smile.

"Sir, it’s a total of eleven items."

Gu Chen nodded and pointed to the yellow floral dress that Ji Pianran was wearing, "Include this one as well, how much in total?"

When Ji Pianran looked at the salesperson’s various bags and heard Gu Chen mention including the dress she was wearing, her eyelids twitched on the spot.

Not this again!

This was really too much. Clothes in the mall were expensive, and all of these would cost a good sum!

Even if it were three hundred per item, that would be three thousand yuan!

She hastened to tug at Gu Chen’s sleeve.

"It’s too expensive, no need to buy so much, just enough to change regularly is fine."

Gu Chen’s lips twitched into a smile, and he promptly rolled up his sleeves.

"Next time without sleeves, I’ll see what you grab!"

Really, couldn’t she just boldly hold his hand?

Ji Pianran hadn’t expected Gu Chen to say such things in front of others, and her pretty face turned red with embarrassment and agitation.

"You’re not being proper!"

The salesperson couldn’t help but start to laugh, "Sir, you really have a great sense of humor. It’s not easy to find a wealthy person who is so down-to-earth like you these days."

Those people, dressed in suits and leather shoes, wearing brand names when they enter the store and even a little generous to shop for clothes, two or three items maybe, I have seen them.

But buying clothes for their wives, that’s something else. Even during fitting, they can’t be bothered to look up for a glance, picking one item and saying briefly that it’s good enough, and then coming back after a while for more.

They definitely wouldn’t be like Gu Chen, purchasing so many outfits at once.

He’s simply a model of a doting husband!

Having spoken, she gazed over at Ji Pianran once more and with the air of someone who’s been there, began, "Silly girl, isn’t every woman out there just waiting for her husband to buy her clothes? Your husband has bought you so much in one go, that’s love, you know! You should be happy."

After finishing, she sighed deeply, "If only my husband would buy me even a piece of clothing, even if it were from a street stall, I’d be happy, but alas..."

At this point, the salesperson shook her head.

Alas, they’d been married for ten years, and love had turned into a different kind of affection. Everything seemed dreadfully bland, yet it was all so natural.

If one day he truly bought her clothes, it would probably be because he’d done something wrong.

Gu Chen, on his part, didn’t take any pleasure in prying into other people’s personal affairs.

He smiled at the salesperson.

"How much is it in total?"

Hearing Gu Chen ask about the price, the salesperson hurried to the cashier, furiously tapping on the calculator before respectfully saying to Gu Chen, "Sir, it’s a total of five thousand one hundred yuan."

Ji Pianran’s eyelid twitched. Goodness, over five thousand!

That’s way too expensive.

"Forget it, I really don’t need that many clothes."

Gu Chen’s parents didn’t hear, and without hesitation, Gu Chen took his bank card out of his pocket and handed it to the salesperson.

"Charge it."

Even though he had over nineteen thousand yuan on him, he felt it was better to keep more cash on hand.

So he chose to use his card.

The salesperson didn’t hesitate either. Without saying a word, as if afraid Gu Chen would change his mind, she took the card, swiped it through the POS machine, and handed it back to Gu Chen.

Seeing Gu Chen enter his PIN, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The deal was done, wonderful. Her commission of one hundred and fifty yuan was secured.

That took care of her son’s living expenses for the next week!

Fate really is amazing; some people spend thousands without batting an eyelid, while others are over the moon just to earn a little over a hundred.

As for Ji Pianran, watching Gu Chen frenziedly paying, she found it both helpless and amusing.

Shopping for herself, yet he was in such a rush to pay as if worried she wouldn’t accept his gifts.

There probably isn’t another person in the world as good to her as Gu Chen.

After paying, Gu Chen, laden with bags, led Ji Pianran out to look for an underwear shop.

His wife had said they still needed to buy underwear!

Slowing down her pace, Ji Pianran blinked and tentatively suggested to the man beside her, "Um, why don’t you sit on that bench over there and wait for me for a bit?"

After all, it was underwear shopping.

If Gu Chen followed her in, embarrassment was the least of worries; what if people thought he was a pervert?

That would be really...

At her words, Gu Chen opened his mouth to speak, but before he could say anything, his cell phone in his jeans pocket began to "beep beep beep."

Seeing that it was Manager Wang’s number, his brows twitched, sensing that the deal to buy the building might be on track.

Gu Chen said to Ji Pianran, "Make sure you buy extra and don’t skimp on money!"

Ji Pianran nodded, inwardly breathing a sigh of relief.

Such private shopping, if Gu Chen really went with her, she’d die of embarrassment!

"Don’t worry."

Ji Pianran smiled and nodded.

Gu Chen pointed at his phone and then briskly walked over to the bench with the bags and set them down. Only then did he answer the call.

"Hey, hello there, Manager Wang."

Looks like the young man got things done pretty quickly; it had been only about fifteen minutes and he’d already settled things with the boss.

"Ah, hello sir, might I ask your surname? I was in such a hurry before, I didn’t catch how to address you."
