"Actually, if it was a few years ago, I would still have believed in love. But after working for a few years, I understood that it's impossible for me to get what I want with just two people working together."
"Take this bottle of red wine for example. It is worth around 1570 dollars, but now we are consuming it like a casual after-lunch drink."
After Chu Yang heard Tao Yan's words, he did not hate her for what she had said. The grown-up world is never as clear-cut, it is impossible to only have two answers, right and wrong.
Everyone has the right to choose for their own life. Right and wrong are not important. What is most important is what they want for themselves.
Half an hour later, both of them finished their lunch.
Chu Yang had enjoyed the lunch at this five-star hotel. The sauce on the steak was delicious and not greasy. The red wine complemented the taste of the steak well.
"Are you full?" Chu Yang wiped his mouth with a napkin and asked Tao Yan, who was sitting opposite him.
Chu Yang stood up and said to Tao Yan, "Then let's go shopping together."
After hearing Chu Yang's words, Tao Yan immediately jumped down from the chair happily and walked to his side. She held his arm and said to him tenderly, "Alright. I love shopping."
In the morning, when Chu Yang asked her to stay in this hotel temporarily, Tao Yan thought that he would not take her out and would only come by at night. She did not expect that Chu Yang would bring her to shop.
"This man does not seem bad. He is different from the others." Tao Yan looked at Chu Yang and thought sweetly in her heart.
"Don't just stand there. Go and change your clothes. Are you planning to shop in this outfit?" Seeing Tao Yan was still standing there in a daze, Chu Yang teased her about the t-shirt she was wearing.
"Hooligan." Tao Yan rolled her eyes at Chu Yang's words and turned back to the room to change her clothes.
After a short while, Tao Yan came out and held Chu Yang's hand as they walked out of the hotel.
Leaving the hotel, the two of them arrived at a shopping mall nearby. Chu Yang brought Tao Yan straight to the floor of the luxury brands.
The stores on this floor are the world's top luxury brands. The decoration looks incredibly magnificent and brilliant, completely different from the other floors. The dazzling array of goods blinded Tao Yan.
"The items here look really beautiful!" Tao Yan said while holding Chu Yang's arm and looking at the products.
"If you see something you like, go ahead and try them out. I am here today just to accompany you." Seeing Tao Yan's happy expression, Chu Yang stroked her head and said to her dotingly.
"Is it really okay?" When Tao Yan heard this, she felt that she couldn't help herself. She thought that Chu Yang just brought her out for window shopping. She didn't expect him to buy things for her.
"Of course." Chu Yang said to Tao Yan with a smile.
Chu Yang felt indifferent about buying some luxury items for Tao Yan. To Chu Yang, Tao Yan is already his woman. What is the big deal about spending some money on her?
"Let's go to DAF's exclusive store and have a look! I've wanted to go there for a long time, but because I'm poor, I can't afford to buy anything there," Tao Yan said happily to Chu Yang after hearing his words.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go," Chu Yang replied.
As soon as they walked into DAF's store, a salesperson immediately came over to welcome them.
"Welcome to DAF's store. How can I help you?"
"I want to see the latest bag this year," Tao Yan said to the salesperson.
"Okay, please follow me." Upon hearing Tao Yan's request, the saleswoman immediately led her to the ladies' bag area.
"Miss, please have a look at this FAIIOFI. This is our latest ladies' exclusive bag of the year. This bag is a clever combination of leather and metal. A world-class master handmade them."
"Miss, I think this bag is very compatible with your style. Carrying this bag with you will definitely garner you a lot of attention on the street."
Seeing the love in Tao Yan's eyes for the bag, Chu Yang said to the salesperson, "Wrap this bag."
"Chu Yang, you are so nice." Tao Yan's eyes were full of surprise when she heard Chu Yang asking the salesperson to wrap the bag for her.
"Of course, sir. Do you need anything else? We have clothes and other items in the shop." After the saleswoman finished packing the bag, she continued to introduce the other items in the shop to Chu Yang.
Tao Yan did not move after hearing the saleswoman's words. Instead, she looked at Chu Yang. She thought that buying a bag was enough.
"What are you waiting for? Continue shopping. Wouldn't it be a waste for us to come out of the hotel just to buy a bag?" Chu Yang saw the hesitation in Tao Yan's eyes. His right hand gently wrapped around Tao Yan's waist as he whispered into Tao Yan's ear.
"Bad guy" Tao Yan's ears immediately turned red when she heard Chu Yang's words. It was obvious that she had also recalled the scene from last night.
However, after Chu Yang's teasing, Tao Yan also relaxed. She knew that Chu Yang would not hate her for buying luxury goods, so she continued shopping in the store.
Thirty minutes later, Chu Yang carried four to five bags to the counter and paid the bill. Tao Yan felt like she was living in a dream. It felt so great buying such expensive items in a luxury store.
She usually had to save up for a few months before she could even buy one, but now, she had bought so many. When they were checking out, the cashier told her the total price of these items was more than 15700 dollars.
After Chu Yang heard the price, he took out his bank card to pay the bill. The process was neat and straightforward, almost like buying vegetables in a market.
Tao Yan looked at Chu Yang's generosity as he was paying. She felt that even if she could only accompany this man for a few days, it will definitely be worth it.
After exiting the DAF's store, Chu Yang said to Tao Yan, "Let's go take a look at lipsticks and cosmetics. You girls should like those things more, right?"
"Haha, okay! I hope I won't bankrupt you." Tao Yan teased after hearing Chu Yang's words.
"Haha, go ahead and buy them. It will take you some more effort to bankrupt me." Although Chu Yang didn't get much cash reward from the system, he had received shares of the Quan Li Company previously.
Jiang Bei had opened a separate bank account to give him cash dividends and salary. After all, Chu Yang is also the chairman of Quan Li Company in name.
Although Chu Yang didn't know how much money is in that account, it should be quite a lot. That is why Chu Yang dared to take Tao Yan for a shopping spree in these luxury stores.
For the rest of the day, Tao Yan took Chu Yang around and shopped for lipstick, perfume, and some cosmetics. Choosing a few sets at each time.
They seemed to be enough for her to use for a long time. Moreover, these items were not that expensive. They only cost Chu yang over 4,700 dollars in total.
"Let's go back first. We bought a lot of things today. We'll shop again when we have the chance," Tao Yan said to Chu Yang after buying the cosmetics.
Chu Yang subconsciously thought that she was being polite to him when he heard her say that. So, he asked, "You're not going to shop anymore? Do you want to buy something else?"
"Do you think you can still carry more of them?" Tao Yan pointed at the shopping bags in Chu Yang's hand and teased him. She bought a lot of things this afternoon. Not only is Chu Yang carrying a lot, but Tao Yan is carrying some too.
"It's okay. We can put these things in the car and shop some more," Chu Yang replied to Tao Yan.
"Haha, aren't you afraid that I'll squander all your money? We should go back. I'm tired from shopping today. Besides, it's much happier to go back, isn't it?" Tao Yan walked to Chu Yang, put her arm around his waist, and said to Chu Yang in a low voice.
"Then let's go back." Chu Yang felt very pleased when he saw Tao Yan's affectionate look at him. He really likes the Tao Yan now.
The two then returned to the Maserati and drove back to the hotel.
