105: Chapter 105 The Little Dilemma of Luxury Stores
After eating and drinking to his fill, Tang Luochuan stretched.
Zhu Jianhua brought Meng Fanyi over to offer a toast.
"Thank you all for attending our wedding!" Zhu Jianhua said, holding a glass of juice. His smile was gentle, and nothing about him seemed amiss.
Su Wantang and Jiang Jinyue glanced at Tang Luochuan and Wang Jie.
With this awkward situation thrust right in their faces, the two girls just waited for Tang Luochuan to stand up.
Tang Luochuan stood up first, holding a glass of juice: "Brother, Sister-in-law! I'm driving out this afternoon, so I won't be drinking. I wish you both a harmonious life together."
Seeing his example, the other young people around the round table all stood up as well.
The two girls followed suit immediately.
Wang Jie, in particular, was all smiles: "Congratulations! Congratulations!"
It had to be said, this little fatty looked harmless when he smiled.
But Tang Luochuan knew what he was thinking, and he felt a sense of sorrow for his cousin.
Su Wantang and Jiang Jinyue stared intently at Meng Fanyi, who remained dignified and elegant, with a perfectly poised smile on her lips.
She didn't spare Wang Jie a second glance, though her gaze seemed to intentionally sweep over Tang Luochuan.
Zhu Jianhua suddenly asked: "Luochuan, you're attending school in Shanghai, right."
Tang Luochuan replied: "Yeah, I just started a month ago."
"Call me if you need anything. I heard from Aunt and Uncle that you've started making money yourself! That's great... much better than me."
It was true that Zhu Jianhua felt a bit sour, but he wasn't jealous.
Perhaps being lecherous was his nature, but Zhu Jianhua was overly honest; sometimes, honest people really do suffer the most.
Hearing his cousin say this, Tang Luochuan felt a bit uncomfortable; at the very least, Zhu Jianhua's heart was quite open and honest.
He sighed: "Alright, thanks, Brother. You... live a good life with Sister-in-law, and if you have any problems, feel free to call me."
"Of course! We're brothers." Zhu Jianhua patted his shoulder.
After the toast, Wang Jie scurried back and sat down: "Brother Chuan..."
"You fat pig!!"
"Uh... what's wrong..." Wang Jie was startled; Tang Luochuan cast a shadow over his heart.
Back in high school, he was fat, ugly, and stupid, so he naturally became a target for bullying.
It was Tang Luochuan who had stepped in to handle it.
Plus, this guy was handsome and good at his studies.
So, he both admired and feared him.
Tang Luochuan whispered: "Keep the matter about Meng Fanyi to yourself! Forget about the past, don't bring it up again. Understand?"
"I know, Brother..." Wang Jie shrank his neck: "I was wrong! I'll punish myself with a drink."
"Aren't you driving your dad?"
"Uh... I won't die from it..."
"What a devoted son. Just drink some water."
Tang Luochuan felt a bit conflicted. Zhu Jianhua had already registered his marriage, so anything he wanted to say couldn't be said anymore.
To cause a scene now would be insane.
After the meal, Tang Luochuan left first with the two girls.
"Luochuan, where are we going to play?" Su Wantang followed excitedly behind him, reaching out to hold the man's left hand.
Jiang Jinyue followed suit and grabbed his right hand.
In her heart, Su Wantang had become a role model; this girl was gifted.
She knew how to act spoiled and cute.
"Oh my god, can't you two walk without holding hands? Let's go to the city's scenic spots, stroll around, and I'll buy you some clothes and bags!"
Tang Luochuan said casually, and then added: "Wantang, I'll transfer 200,000 to you in a bit. This is living expenses for you, Yueyue, and Shen Muyan. From now on, it'll be 100,000 every month, and I'll give you extra during holidays."
"Love you..." Hearing this, Su Wantang immediately leaned forward, wrapped her arms around the boy's neck, and planted a kiss on his cheek.
Seeing this, Jiang Jinyue couldn't say such sweet things, but she could take action.
She also jogged a few steps, caught up, and hugged the boy... then head-butted him.
"Holy crap..." Tang Luochuan felt his front teeth get hit by her skull: "Ah~~ It hurts, it hurts..."
He squatted on the ground, covering his mouth: "What are you doing?"
"I, I, I... I... I..." Jiang Jinyue stammered, not knowing what she was doing.
She had just been focused on observing Su Wantang, doing whatever she did.
Su Wantang chuckled: "Yueyue, if you don't have the talent, don't try to crowd into this lane. Can't you see? I represent charm, Shen Muyan represents shyness, and you represent aloofness. Stay in your own lane. Ha! Be good."
"But..." Jiang Jinyue didn't know what to say; the other lane was popular.
Her being aloof? That was true; everyone who saw her thought she looked unhappy.
Even when she smiled happily in the past, people mistook it for a cold sneer.
But she wanted to change. People's personalities might be different, but the desire for love was the same.
Tang Luochuan stood up. He knew Jiang Jinyue had wanted to kiss him, even though she failed.
The boy leaned over, cupped the girl's face, and planted a gentle kiss on her lips.
As their lips parted, Tang Luochuan continued: "Calm down... I won't favor one over the other. Let's go!"
In downtown Quanshui City, Tang Luochuan brought the two girls to a luxury store.
There really wasn't anything else to do, and after having money, he had completely cured his habit of not liking to shop.
Arriving at several luxury stores, Tang Luochuan treated his two girlfriends like pets, tossing them into the shops: "Pick whatever you want!"
Then he sat down carelessly on the sofa nearby and scrolled through short videos.
Su Wantang felt a bit anxious; this was the first time Tang Luochuan had brought her to buy luxury goods.
The last time they bought gold didn't count, as that was for her mom.
But this was for her. A nice bag and a piece of jewelry would cost over a hundred thousand already.
How should she start?? How much was appropriate to spend?
Should she browse more, then pick a bag and a bracelet? Aim for a hundred thousand?
No, 60,000 should be enough! What if Luochuan thinks I'm spending recklessly?
But he was so rich...
While Su Wantang was hesitating, Jiang Jinyue had no such dilemma.
She had already started picking things out.
"Yueyue! Yueyue!!" Su Wantang hurriedly whispered to remind her.
"What?"
"Control yourself. Luochuan gives us living expenses every month, don't be so spendthrift. If we really spend five or six hundred thousand, he won't be happy."
Jiang Jinyue frowned: "No... I don't think so... He... he buys a car worth millions like he's buying groceries."
"That's different! That's his money, his own! We have to learn to be thrifty and manage the household... The fact that Luochuan isn't helping us pick is him testing our spending habits!"
"Oh, oh, oh... that makes sense... So how much is appropriate?"
"60,000 each, what do you think?"
"Hmm..."
The two girls reached an agreement and then started their normal shopping mode.
They suppressed the excitement of having their boyfriend spend money on them; otherwise, not spending someone else's money was really hard to control, after all, it didn't hurt their own wallets.
