Ten minutes later, Ji Chaozhou and Cheng Liu came out of the men’s underwear store carrying bags.

“Is there anything else you need to buy?” Cheng Liu asked him.

Ji Chaozhou looked at her and reminded, “Flower pot.”

Cheng Liu turned her head to look at the sign next to them. The department store of this shopping mall was on the fifth floor.

“Then you wait here. I’ll go up and buy it, then come back down for you.” Cheng Liu put the bags she was carrying on a convenient bench.

Ji Chaozhou couldn’t go to the fifth floor, so he sat quietly on the bench and waited for her to return.

He raised his head and watched her go up the escalator. His eyes moved slightly when he saw the height of the escalator. His heart started pounding, he felt dizzy, and his breathing began to become erratic.

Ji Chaozhou frowned and turned his head away, no longer looking over there. He pursed his lips into a line and tried to calm his emotions, tried to make faint redness of blood in front of his eyes disappear. His slender hands were clasped tightly against the chair, and his fingers have turned white from the force he was exerting.

Ji Chaozhou waited for a long time before the redness finally receded in front of his eyes. By then, the back of his neck was already covered with sweat.

At this time, his phone vibrated a few times. He took it out and opened it. It was Number 6 who sent him a message. She took some photos of the flower pots on display and asked him which one he liked.

Ji Chaozhou replied to her: [White one.]

Number 6: [Okay.]

“Ahh—!”

There was suddenly an excited and half-suppressed shriek from somewhere near Ji Chaozhou.

He didn’t pay attention at first, but the sound got closer and closer to him.

“Is it you?! Wang Hongyang!!! I like you so much!!!”

Ji Chaozhou turned his head and saw a strange girl with green hair looking at him excitedly.

“You’ve made a mistake.” He withdrew his gaze and stopped looking at the other party.

The mistake was apparent because the strange girl had already closed her mouth by the time Ji Chaozhou turned around and looked over.

At first, she was so stunned by his face that she was speechless, but then she realized that she had really recognized the wrong person.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry! I’m sorry!” The girl bowed and apologized, and then shyly said, “I didn’t mean to bother you, but you really look like… No, I have this fashion model I like, and his profile looks a lot like yours, so I didn’t do it intentionally just now.”

Seeing that he was just ignoring her, the girl took out her phone and found Wang Hongyang’s photo, “Look, his profile looks a bit like yours.”

With quick taps, she opened the photo of Wang Hongyang’s face.

The girl was stunned, then looked up at the young man opposite her… and her love for her idol suddenly cracked.

When compared to the young man sitting on the bench in front of her, why did it feel that—except for his side profile— her idol Wang Hongyang was left behind in every way?

“What are you doing?” Cheng Liu came down from the fifth floor and saw a girl standing in front of her boyfriend, saying something.

Ji Chaozhou heard Number 6’s voice and looked her way, his eyes just passing by the full-face photo of Wang Hongyang in the girl’s hand.

“Sorry, sorry!” the girl turned around and when saw Cheng Liu, she thought she was the girlfriend of the young man sitting on the bench. She continued awkwardly, “I’m sorry, I just recognized the wrong person, I thought he was someone I liked.”

Before Cheng Liu could come near, the girl put her phone away and ran away quickly.

Cheng Liu came over holding the flowerpot and naturally lifted the other bags on the bench with her other hand, shaking her head.

A person could actually make a mistake in recognizing the person they like? People nowadays were really unreliable ah!

Feeling pretty proud of herself, Young President Cheng thought that unlike that girl, her boyfriend was the only person in her heart and eyes.

“Let’s go,” Cheng Liu said with a smile.

Soon, her boyfriend would see the gifts she carefully prepared! With such a big surprise, he should be in a better mood no?

Cheng Liu had deliberately parked the car outside the mall, thinking that when they went out later, the sun would shine down on her car and light up her gifts.

“Thank you.” Wang Hongyang put on the watch worth hundreds of thousands, feeling quite at ease at accepting the gift.

His face was, indeed, as lethal as ever.

“As long as you like it.” The girl also wore a women’s watch from the same series on her wrist. She held Wang Hongyang’s arm and said, “I want to drink milk tea.”

“Then let’s go to the first floor,” Wang Hongyang said.

“I don’t want to drink from the first floor. There is a newly opened dessert shop across the mall. I want to go there.” The short-haired girl said coquettishly, “Can you go with me?”

Wang Hongyang had just received a watch worth hundreds of thousands, and he was in a good mood. He readily agreed, “Sure.”

When they got on the escalator, there was a young girl with green hair standing near them.

She stared at Wang Hongyang, and the look in her eyes changed again and again, her expression extremely complicated.

Aware of her gaze, Wang Hongyang raised his hand to brush the bangs on his forehead and gave the green-haired girl his best smile, polite and charming.

He has been practicing this since his debut. Except for breaking his halberd in Cheng Liu’s armor, he has always done his best!

However, when the green-haired girl saw his smile, her eyes suddenly looked like she had seen a ghost, and she even had a hint of disgust.

Is this the model idol she has liked for years? So greasy! Not as good as the young man on the second floor just now.

Wang Hongyang: “???” 

What’s going on?

The confidence he has finally regained began to waver again.

“What are you looking at?” The short-haired girl next to him complained and tugged on Wang Hongyang’s arm.

“I’m not looking at anything in particular, I just thought her hair was quite green,” Wang Hongyang said casually.

The short-haired girl curled her lips and held his hand. “Green is an unlucky color.”

… …

Cheng Liu walked to the car. She was carrying a bunch of bags in her left hand and a flower pot in her right hand. She turned back to her boyfriend and said, “Can you open the trunk for me?”

Ji Chaozhou followed her to the back of the car and opened the trunk. He saw a large swathe of red cloth covering something inside, occupying most of the trunk space.

That’s it! The sunlight is hitting the inside of the trunk perfectly!

“Pull off that red cloth,” Cheng Liu said, full of expectation.

Cheng Liu was a little nervous about giving a gift for the second time. Her eyes drifted to an intimate-looking couple walking not too far away.

Before she could react, Wang Hongyang saw her and immediately panicked.

Why did Cheng Liu appear here?!

Wang Hongyang’s eyes suddenly fell on the young man next to Cheng Liu. His mind was spinning rapidly. After a moment of calculation, he immediately let go of the girl next to him and strode towards Cheng Liu.

Ji Chaozhou, who was in front of the trunk, helped Number 6 pull off the red cloth. Suddenly a burst of golden light flashed, so dazzling that he instinctively raised his hand to cover his eyes.

At this time, Wang Hongyang had already rushed over, knocked him aside and yelled, “Cheng Liu! So you didn’t show your face to me for more than half a year because you were cheating on me? You found another man!”
