Chapter 366: Chapter 366: Come, Give Me a Kiss
“Husband, look, with that longevity lock, they also provide a smaller longevity lock for free—how great is that? You can give the big one to me and the small one to our baby. One for each of us, mother and son. Isn’t that great, isn’t it great?” The woman clung to the man’s arm, acting coquettishly.

“Great, great, great. If my darling says it’s good, then it’s good.” The man pinched the woman’s nose affectionately, oblivious to their surroundings.

The saleswoman stood to one side, looking rather embarrassed, but she didn’t say anything out of politeness.

Xu Chaomu could see that these two were obviously not of the same age group. The pudgy man was in his forties, while the woman, at most, was thirty.

In this day and age, women who know how to flirt and fuss indeed get their way.

“Shen Chi, I want this…”

Xu Chaomu blinked her eyes, raised her little hand, turned around, and looked up at Shen Chi.

She also wanted to act spoiled—just to see if she’d get any sweet treats.

The longevity lock in her hands glistened, emanating a sense of well-being and harmony.

Shen Chi’s large hand rested on her head, and he also curved his lips into a smile, his eyes gleaming like stars in the night: “Okay.”

The pudgy man gave Xu Chaomu a disdainful glance and said in an overbearing negotiating tone, “Miss, let’s make a deal—let my wife have a look at it. If she likes it, you give it to us; if she doesn’t, you can have it. How about that?”

“Am I supposed to wait and see if your wife likes something I want to buy? Besides, I was here first, I’m going to buy it.” Xu Chaomu was not convinced.

She wasn’t going to let them look at it, much less let them touch it.

“Just have a look, Miss. You’re not that petty, are you?” The man said as he started to flex his wrist.

With a twist of his wrist, it emitted a “creak, creak” sound.

The atmosphere around them instantly cooled down, and the pudgy man’s woman looked at Xu Chaomu and Shen Chi with a sneer.

“Why shouldn’t I be? I just won’t let you look.” Xu Chaomu huffed coldly.

The saleswoman hurriedly tried to smooth things over, pulling out a few other longevity lock designs: “Sir, you might want to consider these other styles. They’re uniquely designed and just released to the market.”

The woman, tugging on the pudgy man’s arm, cooed, “Don’t be like that, I really want this one. You buy it for me—if you don’t, I’ll get angry! Our baby has just turned three months old, and you don’t love me anymore…”

“Darling, don’t be angry, don’t be angry. I’ll buy it for you. Getting angry will cause wrinkles, and then you won’t look pretty anymore,” the man cajoled.

Xu Chaomu ignored them, neatly placing the longevity lock back into its brocade box.

The two brocade boxes, one large and one small, were neatly placed side by side.

Shen Chi wrapped an arm around her shoulder: “Have you decided?”

“Mhm, this one. I like it.”

“Mhm, I like it too,” Shen Chi smiled and said, “the big one for your baby in the belly, and the small one for his sister or brother.”

“Both for the baby in my belly—one for wearing and one for playing with!” Xu Chaomu playfully protested.

“Okay, okay, all for him,” Shen Chi laughed indulgently.

Just as Shen Chi was about to pay, the pudgy man reached out with his fat hand, intending to snatch the longevity lock’s brocade box.

“What are you doing?!” Xu Chaomu quickly protected it, glaring at the man.

“Miss, if you won’t listen to reason, must I use force?” The pudgy man was particularly unreasonable.

“I already said I was buying it; I’m not giving it to you.” Xu Chaomu stated.

“But you haven’t paid yet, have you?” sneered the pudgy man’s woman.

“We’re paying now,” Xu Chaomu refused to yield.

The pudgy man immediately halted the saleswoman, his attitude firm: “Don’t swipe their card; I’m calling your manager now. I’m his regular customer, and he won’t even give me this much face! If you dare swipe, I’ll have him fire you tomorrow!”

The saleswoman was in a tough spot, her smile becoming stiff.

She could only persuade, “Sir, truthfully, the other longevity locks are also very exquisite. They’re all from the same designer and just went on sale.”

“Don’t talk, I’m calling your manager now!” The pudgy man, with a stern face, just wouldn’t listen.

His woman also put on a proud demeanor, looking down on the saleswoman with a sneering look that seemed to say, “Just you wait.”

The man indeed took out his phone and dialed a number.

While he was on the phone, his woman approached Xu Chaomu and pointed at the price tag under the glass counter.

“This longevity lock is eighty-eight thousand. Can you afford it?” Her face was full of scorn.

Xu Chaomu glanced at her, then at Shen Chi, innocence brimming in her large eyes: “She says you can’t afford it.”

Shen Chi laughed, holding her hand and whispering in her ear, “What should we do, since your husband indeed can’t afford it?”

“If you can’t afford it, then I’ll sell you,” Xu Chaomu chuckled.

“Would you really?” Shen Chi asked.

“What is there to hesitate about? It should fetch a good price. You don’t know, but those rich ladies like someone exactly like you.”

Having said that, Xu Chaomu pinched Shen Chi’s waist.

Hmm, his robust physique, firm abs—very comfortable to the touch, and that handsome face.

Hmm, it would definitely fetch a good price.

“Not being serious,” Shen Chi pinched her cheek in return.

The pudgy man’s woman seeing herself ignored, felt a bit embarrassed. Thus, she spoke up again, trying to assert her presence.

“If you can’t afford it, don’t pretend you can. If you’re leaving, then leave quickly. Otherwise, when my husband’s friend gets here, it’s going to be awkward for you.”

Xu Chaomu pinched Shen Chi’s waist again: “Shen Chi, she’s threatening you.”

She was addicted to pinching, having discovered that Shen Chi had a really nice build.

After so many years without the chance to touch, she hadn’t expected him to feel this good.

“Call me ‘husband,’” Shen Chi said.

“Brother-in-law… we’re not married yet. If my sister finds out, wouldn’t it be inappropriate?” Xu Chaomu coyly said, curving her brows in amusement.

Sure enough, Shen Chi was sweaty, and what was that about brother-in-law. After five years apart, Xu Chaomu was still as mischievous.

It’s just that the woman did not understand any husband-wife affection, and she took it seriously.

She laughed, “Turns out they’re illicit lovers, having an affair? A little affair with her sister’s man, pretty thrilling. People in the city really know how to play.”

“Brother-in-law, she says we’re out having an affair, aren’t you angry? I am,” Xu Chaomu huffed.

“Chaomu, we’re openly in love, aren’t we? Come here, give me a kiss.”

“Shameless!” Xu Chaomu turned her head away, not expecting Shen Chi to be so brazen.

In broad daylight, though there weren’t many people, it was still a public place.

“Not going to kiss?”

“Go away.”

“Then I’m going to kiss you.”

As soon as Shen Chi finished speaking, he made a surprise move, bending down and planting a kiss on Xu Chaomu’s cheek.

Though it was a fleeting touch, Xu Chaomu’s cheek immediately blushed as red as an apple.

When Shen Chi decided to be shameless, he really went all out, sweeping everything before him with no rival in sight.

The woman’s tone instantly turned sour: “Wow, the young men and women of today are really shameless, kissing in public like that. Are they going to start undressing next?”

“Where did this dog come from, barking nonstop?” Shen Chi’s face darkened as he cast a cold glance their way.
