  “President, Madam.” PA Wang returned after taking the car. 

  Mu Huan took this chance to tell him, “Hubby, I can shop on my own, there’s nothing I want to buy, really. You need not accompany me. Go and get busy with your work!” 

  He did not reply to her and merely turned to his PA to pass some instructions. 

  PA Wang was surprised; his workaholic CEO was going to skip work to accompany his wife for shopping. Still, he did not express his thoughts on his face. After receiving the instructions, he gave a bow to Mu Huan and left. 

  The woman watched, dumbly, as the only person who could take her husband away disappeared from her sight! 

  A thousand thoughts assaulted her mind all at once! 

  “Let’s go,” said the man, who dipped his head to look at her. 

  Despite the frantic thoughts racing through her mind, she looked up with a pretentious smile that showed she was pleasantly surprised. 

  He watched her overtly fake smile with amusement. 

  Still, he did not say anything and only reached out to caress her head. 

  Somehow, his action made her feel like a pet. 

  Bao Junyan was tall, with long legs. One step of his could easily match two of hers. Furthermore, the ill-at-ease woman was also deliberately distancing herself from him. Soon, there was a considerable distance between them. 

  The man was used to a hectic schedule that waited for no one. However, upon realizing that his wife was falling behind, he stopped and waited for her. 

  She almost howled in desperation when she saw him stopping for her. Seeing each other at night is good enough, isn’t it? Why do we need to meet during the day? And worse, we’re shopping together! 

  Despite her unwillingness, she knew that she had to please him in order to keep her precious status as his wife. Hence, she dared not tarry and quickly caught up with him. 

  “Sorry, Hubby.” She bowed her head in apology. 

  Inside her heart, she was plotting an excuse to finish off this arduous task. 

  Suddenly, she felt her chin being lifted up, and she was forced to look into his dark and pensive eyes. Startled, she instinctively wanted to retreat but was caught by another big palm hugging her from the back of her waist. She was thrown into his strong and sturdy arms in one sweep. 

  Her heart started to beat furiously in an instant! 

  “You don’t have to be nervous or be afraid of me. I’m your husband, the man whom you are spending the rest of your life with.” 

  His deep and melodious voice reverberated above her head. The gentleness in his tone was like a summer breeze that engulfed her and unconsciously made her let down her guard. 

  “I…… I’m not nervous. I’m just…… not used to it……” 

  “Eh, I’ll spend more time with you in the future.” 

  Mu Huan: “.……!” 

  No, no, no! There’s really no need for him to spend more time with her! Her poor heart won’t be able to take the pressure if he continued to be around her! ……

  She thought that she would remain nervous throughout her time with him. But once she entered the mall, her natural instinct for lovely clothes overtook her anxiety. 

  As she looked at the pretty dresses, she could not help stopping to wonder and praise, “Wow, how beautiful……” 

  He followed her gaze and, seeing that the dresses seemed to suit her, decided to pull her into the shop. 

  “What are you doing?” Seeing that he was about to step into the store, she hurriedly stopped him. 

  “Let’s go in and buy the clothes.” 

  “Don’t do that! This store is super expensive! Besides, I can’t wear these. Let’s forget it!” The dresses were made of superior materials and cost upwards of ten thousand yuan. These were not made for her. 

  “Super expensive? These dresses are only for looking at?” 

  “Eh eh.” She nodded earnestly. 

  “Have you forgotten your husband’s status?” He had nothing except for money. Hence, for things that his wife liked, could she only look without buying? 

  His words took her by surprise. 

  “Next time, you don’t have to worry when you see anything you like. If you like, you can buy a commercial property every day.” 

  Mu Huan: “.……!” 

  Is this what others mean by too rich to be humane?

  Chapter 20: Why Don’t You Allow Me to Buy Something for You?

  While she was still caught in a daze, he pulled her into the store. “Go and try them.” 

  “No need! There’s really no need to!” She quickly shook her head. “I shouldn’t ask for something I don’t deserve!” 

  He can go about his extravagant ways, but I won’t accept anything this expensive without working for it. 

  “You’re my wife and I’m your husband. Do I need a reason to buy clothes for you? Huh?” 

  The last word sounded dangerous, coming from him. 

  Scared, she immediately shook her head again. “No need, there’s no need for a reason!” 

  Indeed. 

  The dress suited her very well. She looked so much more attractive after changing into the new attire, compared to the original dress that she was wearing! 

  Nodding his head in satisfaction, he told her, “Try these other dresses, too.” 

  While she was trying out the clothes, he picked a few more. 

  “There’s no need to, this dress is good enough!” she protested instinctively. 

  “Go and try them,” he barked. It was a direct order. 

  Since they were here shopping, he might as well fill up the closet space he left for her. 

  As an obedient wife, she could do nothing except to follow his direct order. 

  All the dresses that he selected suited her perfectly. She liked them all after trying them, and she did not know which one to pick for the final buy. 

  Just as she was troubling over this…… 

  He waved his arm and indicated that he would get them all. 

  Mu Huan: “.……!” 

  Six of these dresses would cost more than 60,000 yuan! 

  What a brat! 

  She tugged at his elbow and whispered softly, “Hubby, don’t you find these dresses to be similar? There’s no need to have similar clothes. Let’s just choose one among these……” 

  “Yes, these do look rather similar.” 

  “Eh eh,” she said, nodding in quick succession. Just when she thought that he was agreeing with her view to select only one of these…… 

  He had his card swiped in one stroke. 

  Mu Huan: “.……!” 

  “Haven’t we agreed that we would just choose one because these are similar?” she muttered feebly. 

  “These all look nice on you.” Although the styles of these dresses were similar, there were still differences in colors; hence, his wife presented a different kind of beauty while dressed in each. He was very satisfied with all of these dresses. 

  Mu Huan: “.……” 

  She was rendered speechless. 

  Subsequently, she dared not cast a glance at other clothes, too worried that her tuhao 1 husband would splurge needlessly with every outfit that she looked adoringly at. 

  She planned to leave him one day and should not splurge using his money. 

  “Isn’t there anything else you’d like?” After going through one floor of stores without buying anything, he felt like he was wasting his time, somewhat. 

  “Eh,” she said with a nod. 

  He frowned. 

  “Hubby, I’m hungry. Let’s go and eat something!” Clinging to his elbow, she signaled that she wanted to leave the mall. 

  Glancing at his watch, he said, “It’s only three.” 

  “I haven’t had my lunch yet. I’m famished now.” 

  Tilting his head to gaze up at the upper storey, he said, “Let’s have something upstairs. We can continue our shopping after that.” 

  Mu Huan: “I don’t like the food offered upstairs. I want to have a meal at Jin Din Xuan.” 

  To prevent him from shopping further, she opted for a restaurant that was a few kilometers away from any shopping malls. 

  “Why don’t you allow me to buy something for you?” he asked her out of the blue. 

  Startled, she looked down only to feel his broad palm stopping her. His slender and long fingers pinched her chin and forced her to look him in the eyes. 

  “I……” She did not know what to say. 

  This man was simply too smart for her to handle. She did not get exposed in the past because they spent too little time together and it was only at night that they saw each other. 

  Now, she could easily be exposed by spending time together like this. 

  He patiently waited for her to speak.
