Chapter 13: Buy Your Own Underwear

  Mu Tianyang raised his head from the newspaper: "Have all of them been tried out?"

  "Yes!"

  "Pack up all the ones that fit!" He put down the newspaper. "Don't pack any wrong ones, or I'll find one that doesn't fit and you'll be out of a job!"

  "Yes!" The shop assistant said loudly and immediately went to pack it up.

  Mu Tianyang stood up and beckoned to Wanqing to come over to his side. He brushed her hair aside: "Tired?"

  She was about to say yes, but then thought better of it and shook her head.

  "That's good." He indeed liked this answer, and with his arm around her, he walked out and told the shop assistant, "Send the clothes along with the bill to our home!"

  Then he took Wanqing to a shoe store and had her try on dozens of shoes in one breath.

  Wanqing didn't want this kind of favor, but she didn't dare refuse. If she resisted him again, she didn't know what consequences she would suffer. If he could spend money happily, maybe she would suffer less...

  As they walked out of the shoe store, Mu Tianyang put his arm around her and whispered in her ear, "Now let's go buy you some jewelry. Cosmetics and lingerie, and whatever else you need, come back this afternoon to get them..."

  When she heard the words "underwear", Wan Qing's face turned red.

  "Buy something nice," he said. "Take off your clothes and I hope there's a surprise. Buy more, if it's not enough for twenty sets, you're on your own!"

  "I understand."

  He pecked her on the cheek contentedly and took her to a jewelry store.

  She had never seen so many jewels before. Her mother originally had two valuable ones, which were brought out from the Ding family during the divorce, but they were all sold for medical treatment. Ding Caiyan would buy jewelry on every festive occasion, and if she hadn't left the Ding family, she would have been a young lady with brocade clothes and jade food, shining pearls and precious air.

  "What's on your mind?" Mu Tianyang asked in her ear.

  "I think this earring is really shiny..."

  "Which jewel doesn't shine?"

  "Uh...fine." Wanqing took off her earrings, suddenly puzzled. When was she supposed to wear them? Didn't he forbid her from going out? Was she supposed to dress up at home every day and wait for him to take a look?

  Mu Tianyang's phone suddenly rang, he picked it up and frowned as he answered: "Hello?"

  "Mr. Mu," said the other side, "the patient in bed 24 is awake, ask her daughter again."

  "What did you say when she was not around?"

  "Uh... I woke up last night and have already asked several times, so..."

  "Got it." Mu Tianyang hung up the phone.

  Wanqing didn't hear what was being said on the other side and looked at the necklace on her neck in the mirror.

  "Is it possible?" she asked Mu Tianyang.

  "Alright." Mu Tianyang said to the shop assistant, "That's all, pay the bill."
