Chapter 58
After trying on over a dozen outfits, Feng Qingyi glanced at the time and decided it was about time to go to the supermarket.
"Pack up all the clothes he just tried on!"
The clerk promptly sprang into action, packing up all the clothes.
After Feng Qingyi paid, she looked at the many bags and said, "Excuse me, do you offer home delivery service here?"
"Sorry, miss, we don't provide home delivery, but you can leave the items here temporarily," the clerk apologized.
"Oh, then I'll leave them here for now and come back for them later. Thanks for the trouble."
After making the arrangement with the clerk, Feng Qingyi decided to take Qin Yuchuan to the supermarket.
After Feng Qingyi and Qin Yuchuan left, the staff at the clothing store began chattering.
"That lady is so rich, she bought her boyfriend so many clothes without batting an eye, spending over a hundred thousand!"
"Her boyfriend is really handsome! If not for my professionalism, I'd have asked for his WeChat."
"What's the point of just being handsome if he's spending the girl's money?"
"I think that guy earlier doesn't seem like the kind to mooch. It's probably just a couple's fun."
"..."
Feng Qingyi took Qin Yuchuan into a large supermarket, recalling that they had browsed supermarkets together before.
However, back then they had only browsed virtually through video, while this time they were there in person.
Feng Qingyi pushed over a large shopping cart, "You're in charge of pushing the cart, and I'll do the shopping."
Qin Yuchuan took the cart and walked behind Feng Qingyi.
The colorful array of goods in the supermarket was a bit overwhelming for Qin Yuchuan.
"Let's go over there first and get the ingredients for dinner. This time, you can pick whatever you'd like to eat."
In the vegetable section, Qin Yuchuan scrutinized the produce, but he still didn't know what to choose.
Feng Qingyi walked ahead, picking up two cabbages, "Do you eat cabbage?"
"Yes, you can pick whatever you like."
"If there are any vegetables you particularly like, just put them in the cart."
After instructing him, Feng Qingyi slowly made her selections, from leafy greens to meats and seafood, picking out some of each.
Qin Yuchuan silently pushed the cart behind Feng Qingyi, receiving the items she handed to him.
After buying the produce, Feng Qingyi decided to get some snacks and drinks for home, so she headed to the snack aisle.
"This is the kind of chips I bought for you last time. Did you try them? How did you like the taste?" Feng Qingyi asked, holding up a bag of chips.
Qin Yuchuan recalled the taste of the chips, "Not bad."
"I'm glad you liked them. Let me get a few more bags." Feng Qingyi grabbed a few more bags.
After getting the chips and cookies, Feng Qingyi noticed the chocolates on the top shelf, but she couldn't reach them.
"Which one did you want?" Qin Yuchuan asked.
Feng Qingyi compared her height to Qin Yuchuan's, realizing the difference was quite significant.
She was around 5'6", not short by any means, but compared to Qin Yuchuan, who seemed to be about 6'3", she appeared much shorter.
"That golden box," she said.
Qin Yuchuan easily grabbed the chocolate box and handed it to Feng Qingyi.
Feng Qingyi took it with a smile, "Thanks."
"Anything else you'd like?" Qin Yuchuan asked.
Feng Qingyi looked in the cart and realized they hadn't bought drinks yet. "Let's go over there and get some drinks."
At the beverage section, Feng Qingyi struggled to decide, tempted by the various juices and milks.
"What's the matter?" Qin Yuchuan noticed her hesitation.
Feng Qingyi said, "There are so many drinks, I don't know which ones to choose."
Qin Yuchuan remembered her fondness for beautiful things and suggested, "These drinks probably don't differ much in appearance."
"..." Well, the packaging did make a difference.
Feng Qingyi wavered, "The key is the taste, and I haven't tried many kinds, so..."
"Then choose your favorite flavor from the ones you've had before," Qin Yuchuan didn't see the need for indecision.
To avoid keeping Qin Yuchuan waiting too long, Feng Qingyi followed his advice and picked her usual favorites.
Though she still wanted to try some new varieties.
"Just get whatever you want to try," Qin Yuchuan sensed her disappointment.
Feng Qingyi looked at him with wide eyes, "There's no need for that."
"If you want to try them, just get them all. Don't be upset."
Feng Qingyi quickly explained, "I'm not upset at all. These drinks have expiration dates, and if we buy too many, they'll go to waste before we can finish them."
"Let's just get these two bottles today. I'll buy others to try another time."
Qin Yuchuan confirmed again, "Are you sure you're not upset?"
"I'm really not upset. There's nothing else we need to buy now, so let's check out and go home." Feng Qingyi led the way.
After paying, Feng Qingyi carried one bag in each hand as she walked toward the exit.
Qin Yuchuan caught up and said, "Let me carry them."
Feng Qingyi handed him one bag. "Okay, let's go!"
Qin Yuchuan eyed the bag in Feng Qingyi's right hand and extended his hand, "Give me that one too."
"I can manage. I'm pretty strong," she said.
She could carry a bucket of water up nine floors, so these few bags were no problem.
Qin Yuchuan took the bag from Feng Qingyi's hand. "I know you're capable, but sometimes you don't need to push yourself so hard."
Feng Qingyi suddenly recalled going shopping with her brother, Feng Qingci. If there was only one bag, she would carry it. If there were two, they would each take one. She had never seen an issue with that.
But now, compared to Qin Yuchuan, she felt a bit embarrassed about her brother's behavior.
Qin Yuchuan was truly a very gentle person!
As they passed the clothing store, Feng Qingyi carried the bags of clothes she had bought for Qin Yuchuan.
Seeing this, Qin Yuchuan said, "Let me carry those too."
Before Feng Qingyi could react, Qin Yuchuan had already taken the bags from her hands.
Carrying two large shopping bags in one hand and five or six bags of clothes in the other, he appeared completely unburdened.
"Qin Yuchuan, let me take some! Aren't they too heavy?" Feng Qingyi asked with concern.
"Not at all. If you're shopping alone, just buy less so you don't overexert yourself."
If he was with her, he didn't mind if she bought more.
"Carrying a few things won't exhaust me. I'm not as frail as Lin Daiyu," Feng Qingyi said.
Did she really seem that delicate to him?
Qin Yuchuan: "Mmm, you're the best."
Feng Qingyi: "I always feel like you're just humoring a child. I'm already an adult."
"My twentieth birthday is in three months. Don't treat me like a child anymore."
"When is your birthday?" Qin Yuchuan asked.
Feng Qingyi: "January first."
"January first, I'll remember that."
He should prepare a birthday gift for the young lady in advance.
