Chapter 377
Their gazes made her uncomfortable and she started to wonder if it was too strange for her to be standing beside Zhang Yi Hai.
“Are you done with your shopping?” Fang Su Jin asked. “Should we get going first?”
“Sister Fang, are you in a rush?”
Fang Su Jin was about to turn around when she heard his question. “What’s wrong?”
“This...” Zhang Yi Hai coughed. “If you don’t mind, could you accompany me for a while?”
Her heart skipped a beat upon hearing his request.
“My mother gave me a list, but I’m having a problem choosing the items.”
Fang Su Jin’s heart began to calm down again.
.....
For a while, she had thought that Zhang Yi Hai was going to ask her out or something. It turned out that he needed help with his mother’s shopping list. Fang Su Jin began to scold herself for her ridiculous thought.
“What did your mother ask you to get?” Fang Su Jin asked.
“Some packaging for candies,” Zhang Yi Hai spoke. “There are too many to choose from. I don’t know which one is suitable. They all looked almost the same to me.”
His mother told him to choose just any suitable one. Zhang Yi Hai has been visiting the store and thought that every packaging was just the same.
He really could not find out which one of them was suitable.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhang Yi Hai decided to get Fang Su Jin’s help.
“But if you’re in a hurry, I can send you back first,” Zhang Yi Hai said.
“No. It’s fine.” Fang Su Jin waved her hand. “I don’t mind helping.” Her lips curled into a smile. “Is this the wedding candy for your sister?”
Zhang Yi Hai nodded. “It seems like it.”
“Then, let’s not waste time and look for the packaging.” Fang Su Jin thought that Zhang Yi Hai should be busy helping his family with his sister’s matter. It would be best to let him settle his matter quickly.
The two of them headed to the next floor where the shop was located.
As soon as they walked in, a shop assistant greeted them amiably. The moment she saw Zhang Yi Hai again, the shop assistant’s expression began to change. His lips curled into a smile. “Mister, you are back. Have you finally made up your mind?” She shifted her gaze and finally noticed Fang Su Jin beside him. Then, her smile widened.
Fang Su Jin thought that there was something strange in this shop assistant’s smile.
Just then, the shop assistant spoke again, “It turned out that you are going to ask your fiance’s opinion.”
The shop assistant saw that Zhang Yi Hai had returned to the shop with a woman by his side and assumed that Fang Su Jin was the person he was going to marry.
Fang Su JIn’s face turned scarlet at the speed of light.
The shop assistant seemed to have misunderstood their relationship. “No... we’re not...” Fang Su Jin glanced at Zhang Yi Hai, hoping that he would clarify their relationship, but the young man seemed unbothered.
“Miss, please show me the packaging again,” Zhang Yi Hai spoke to the shop assistant.
“Then, please come with me to the counter again,” the shop assistant said.
Zhang Yi Hai followed after the shop assistant. But a few seconds later, he stopped on his track and turned to Fang Su Jin again. “Sister Fang, let’s go.” His voice sounded a little deep when he lowered his tone.
Taking a deep breath to calm down, Fang Su Jin walked over to Zhang Yi Hai’s side before they both walked over to the counter.
The shop assistant took out the small packaging for the candies and showed it over to both of them.
Seeing that Zhang Yi Hai did not mind the shop attendant’s misunderstanding, Fang Su Jin tried to keep calm and pretended as if that episode did not happen.
As the shop assistant took out several samples, Fang Su Jin began to look at the packaging with a serious look on her face.
Fang Su Jin had known Zhang Li Xue for years. Naturally, she understood her friend’s preferences.
After browsing for a while, Fang Su Jin finally pick up the red and cream-colored packaging box. The size was acceptable and the design was simple yet elegant.
She inspected the design and finally decided that Zhang Li Xue and her mother would definitely like this one.
“Zhang Yi Hai, what do you think?” Fang Su Jin turned around in excitement, wanting to ask for the young man’s opinion. However, the moment she turned around, Fang Su Jin realized that Zhang Yi Hai’s face was too close to her.
Her eyes widened.
Fang Su Jin wanted to speak, but it seemed that Zhang Yi Hai was studying the box in her hand
“Sister Fang, do you think this one is suitable?”
As Zhang Yi Hai spoke, Fang Su Jin could feel his breath softly caressing her cheek. It made her heart palpitate and her mind go blank.
“Sister Fang?” Zhang Yi Hai spoke again when he noticed that Fang Su Jin had not said a word.
The moment he turned, their faces were close to each other. Their noses were almost touching.
Fang Su Jin sucked in a deep breath and blinked. Before she could take a step back, Zhang Yi Hai had already put his arms around her waist.
This...
“Sister Fang,” Zhang Yi Hai called her. “You have to be careful. Otherwise, you will fall again.”
Zhang Yi Hai could read her next step and be already prepared to grab her before she would fall.
Again?
It was then that Fang Su Jin remembered that this scene had happened yesterday.
Zhang Yi Hai would not be thinking that she was doing this on purpose, right?
Before Fang Su Jin could explain, Zhang Yi Hai had already looked away. He took the box in Fang Su Jin’s hand and spoke, “Do you think this is the most suitable?”
“Y-yes.” Her voice trembled.
Zhang Yi Hai looked at her again and smiled. “I also think that this one looks the prettiest. Sister Fang, you have good taste.”
Seeing the smile on his face made her feel as if she was being seduced by a devil.
