The couple outfits selected by Gu Yang were subtly coordinated. They weren’t exact replicas, making it difficult for people to discern them as matching sets at a glance.
In addition to the couple outfits, Gu Yang also chose mechanical watches, jade accessories, thermos flasks, and various other items in complementary styles.
Gu Yang took charge of the selections, while Feng Jue assumed the responsibility of carrying their purchases.
As Feng Jue reached for his black card to settle the bill, Gu Yang intervened, firmly placing her own bank card on the table. She puffed out her chest proudly and declared, “Use mine.”
Feng Jue blinked in surprise. “Sister… are you… supporting me?”
Gu Yang nodded affirmatively. “Yes!”
Thanks to her earnings from Xiao Yize, Gu Yang now had the means to support the Little Blood Bank. However, she soon realized that the items at her sister’s shop came with hefty price tags.
Even a simple purchase could easily tally up to tens of millions, primarily due to the high costs of mechanical watches and jade accessories, which often reached millions individually.
As Gu Yang glanced at the balance in her bank account, she couldn’t help but sigh silently to herself.
Was she truly in a relationship—a relationship that would bankrupt her?
With the packed items in hand, Feng Jue leaned in and planted a kiss on Gu Yang’s forehead. His eyes sparkled, his smile warm, and his voice gentle as he expressed, “Sister, you’re so kind.”
When he smiled, his already handsome face became even more radiant.
Gu Yang’s heart skipped a beat.
So be it…
In that moment, she understood why King You of Zhou had been willing to entertain his feudal vassals just to see his beloved smile.
After neatly storing their purchases in the car trunk, Feng Jue and Gu Yang continued their shopping spree.
Though he wasn’t particularly fond of shopping, having his sister by his side made Feng Jue content regardless of the activity.
Inside Jin Chang Mall, a row of internet-famous claw machines caught their attention, with numerous couples trying their luck at catching plush dolls.
Gu Yang gazed at the plush toys dangling from the claw machine and turned to Feng Jue, asking, “Ah Jue, would you like a doll?”
“Want a doll…” Gu Yang asked, eyeing the plush toys.
Feng Jue was completely taken aback, his face flushing with heat, spreading to his ears.
Taking a deep breath, he spoke in a low, hoarse voice, “Sister, you’re still young. It’s not appropriate.”
Gu Yang regarded him with a puzzled expression. “What’s inappropriate about it? Do we need to wait for a certain date to catch a doll?”
Feng Jue’s handsome features froze, his expression momentarily bewildered. “Catch… doll?”
Gu Yang clarified, “Yes, what else did you think it was?”
Feng Jue felt his face growing hotter, as if it were on fire. Embarrassment flooded over him, and he covered his face with his hands.
He had misunderstood.
Observing his red ears, Gu Yang realized the misunderstanding and felt her own cheeks flush. She reached out to playfully poke his head, laughing awkwardly. “What are you always thinking about?”
Feng Jue lowered his gaze to meet hers. “I’m thinking about you.”
Gu Yang was caught off guard.
Spotting the best-looking doll machine, Gu Yang pulled Feng Jue along to try their luck.
Grabbing a handful of game coins, Gu Yang stood before the claw machine, raising her eyebrows as she glanced back at Feng Jue. “Tell me, which one do you want?”
It was almost as if she were saying, “My beloved, which piece of land would you like? I’ll acquire it for you.”
But despite her gentle appearance, Gu Yang had a fierce side when necessary.
Flooded with thoughts of how adorable his sister was, Feng Jue couldn’t resist reaching out to pinch Gu Yang’s cheek. Leaning closer with a smile, he requested, “Sister, can I have Pikachu?”
Glancing at the claw machine filled with Pikachus, Gu Yang nodded. “Of course, no problem. Watch me work.”
With determination, Gu Yang swiftly maneuvered the claw, snatching up every Pikachu within reach.
Engrossed in the game, Gu Yang didn’t realize until she turned around with the final Pikachu that Feng Jue was surrounded by a pile of plush toys of all sizes.
