137: Chapter 138 Transformed into an ATM
Li Xue linked arms with Li Ruonan, strolling elegantly between various luxury boutiques.
Jiang Jing followed slowly behind, his hands stuffed in his pockets.
His role was very clear—a walking ATM.
"This one! And this one!" Li Xue stood in front of the Chanel counter, her fingers tapping rapidly against the display rack. "I want that bag too, yes, the limited edition one!"
The sales clerk's eyes crinkled into slits as she smiled, busily packing up the items.
Jiang Jing leaned against the counter, lazily pulling out his card. "Wrap them up."
"This one! This one! And this one!" Li Xue excitedly pointed at a row of dresses in the display window, turning to give the sales clerk a sweet smile. "Wrap them all up, in my size."
The sales clerk's eyes lit up. Just as she was about to speak, Li Ruonan pointed to the leather jackets on the other side. "One of each color in this series, in size S."
The sales clerk scrambled to process the order, her eyes darting between the three of them—two dazzling beauties with completely different styles, followed by a handsome, wealthy young man. This combination was bound to spark the imagination.
"Sir, would you like delivery service?" the clerk asked respectfully.
Jiang Jing nodded. "Yes, deliver it to Yunhai View Mansion XXXXX."
Just kidding, Jiang Jing wasn't stupid enough to carry it all himself. These were high-end luxury stores; home delivery was the bare minimum service.
"Understood!" The clerk noted the address, clicking her tongue in secret. That was the most prestigious luxury residence in Rong City!
This scene repeated itself throughout the mall.
Other shoppers in the mall gradually began to notice this peculiar trio.
"Look over there!" A girl in a JK uniform tugged on her companion's sleeve. "Those two beauties really know how to shop!"
"Who is that handsome guy behind them? He's so doting on them~" the companion peered curiously. "A boyfriend? A brother?"
"Probably siblings?" the companion guessed. "Look at how good-looking they all are..."
Discussions rose and fell, but the three were completely oblivious, or perhaps they simply didn't care.
At the Dior counter, Li Ruonan was hesitating over a row of high heels.
"Does this pair look better, or that one?" She turned to ask Jiang Jing.
Jiang Jing glanced at them. "Buy both."
"No, you have to pick one!" Li Ruonan stomped her foot.
Jiang Jing's gaze was glued to her beautiful legs, unable to look away. "Then... the pair you're trying on."
Li Ruonan looked down at the red high heels she was trying on, her cheeks flushing slightly. "I suppose you have good taste."
The sales clerk chimed in at the perfect moment. "This model is our newly arrived limited edition, there are only... globally..."
"Wrap them up." Jiang Jing interrupted her without even looking up. "I want both pairs, one in size 36 and one in size 37."
Li Xue leaned in upon hearing this. "How did you know Ruonan wears a size 36?"
The air suddenly went quiet.
Jiang Jing remained composed. "I guessed."
Li Ruonan's face turned slightly red, and she lowered her head to pretend to study the shoebox.
Li Xue let out a meaningful "Oh," then pulled Ruonan toward the Gucci counter.
The shopping spree lasted for a long time. Jiang Jing's card was burning hot from all the swiping, but looking at the cashback notifications popping up in the system, he couldn't stop smiling.
Although Jiang Jing wasn't desperate for this pocket change, even a mosquito is meat no matter how small; this was still making money!
Passersby in the mall kept glancing over. Two dazzling beauties with completely different styles, followed by a handsome man swiping his card like water—this combination was simply too eye-catching.
...
At the entrance of a boutique, a pretty girl in a white dress had been observing them for a long time.
She smoothed her hair and gathered the courage to walk up to them.
"Um... excuse me." She stopped Li Xue, who had just come out of the fitting room, with a sweet smile.
Li Xue and Li Ruonan both turned around.
"May I ask if that gentleman behind you... is your brother?"
Li Xue blinked, looked at Jiang Jing, who was playing on his phone, and then at Li Ruonan, who was picking out lipstick beside her, and suddenly flashed a mischievous smile.
"Nope~" She affectionately linked Li Ruonan's arm. "He is our boyfriend."
"Huh?"
Hearing this unexpected answer, the young lady was stunned.
Her expression shifted from expectation to shock, finally freezing into a "are you kidding me?" look.
"B-both of you?" Her voice cracked.
Li Ruonan had been trying on lipstick, but upon hearing this, she almost snapped the tube in half.
She glared at Li Xue in embarrassment, but inexplicably, she didn't deny it, only lowering her head to pretend to be focused on applying her lip gloss.
"That's right." Li Xue added with a grin. "The three of us are together."
The girl's mouth opened and closed, but she didn't know what to say. Her shopping bag had fallen at some point, and she hadn't even noticed.
Her gaze swept back and forth between the three of them, finally settling on Jiang Jing—who was leaning leisurely against the counter, flashing her an innocent smile.
"S-sorry to bother you!" The girl finally found her voice, bent down to pick up her shopping bag, and fled as if escaping.
Li Ruonan finally let out a long sigh of relief and glared at Li Xue reproachfully. "What nonsense are you spouting!"
"How is it nonsense?" Li Xue blinked innocently. "Isn't it true?"
Jiang Jing walked over at the right moment, putting an arm around each of them. "Ladies, where to next?"
Li Ruonan pinched him, her face blushing, but she didn't pull away from his arm.
The three of them left the boutique in full view of everyone, leaving behind a stir of commotion.
"Oh my god! Are they really all three together?"
"This is just... too open-minded!"
"Who is that guy? How is he so capable?"
Jiang Jing naturally kept his arms around their waists, ignoring the whispering of the crowd.
"Where to next?" Jiang Jing asked.
Li Xue and Li Ruonan exchanged a look and said in unison, "The lingerie store!"
Jiang Jing almost choked on his own saliva.
Looking at the mischievous smiles on both women's faces, Jiang Jing really wanted to give their butts a few hard spanks.
...
After shopping, the three drove to Disney.
(It wasn't supposed to be there, but let's pretend it is, hehe)
As soon as she got out of the car, Li Xue excitedly pulled the two of them toward the entrance, but when they reached the ticket booth, she suddenly stopped and blinked mischievously. "Oh, I just remembered, I need to go to the restroom! You guys go ahead and buy the tickets, I'll be right back!"
After saying that, she didn't wait for them to react and darted off.
Li Ruonan was stunned for a moment, then realized her intention, her earlobes turning slightly red.
Jiang Jing stood beside her with a smile on his lips, deliberately leaning close to her ear to whisper. "What's wrong, is Director Li suddenly feeling so shy?"
"W-who's shy!" Li Ruonan glared at him, but her eyes darted around, not daring to look him in the eye.
