I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!

Chapter 707: Chapter 707: Wait and See

"It’s not like that at all, where did your mind go? How could I possibly want to bring someone else back home? I just want to take this with me, okay? This is so cool, don’t I look pretty awesome walking like this? I still need a few days to recover, so I obviously can’t keep using this cane, right? And I’ve already tried it out; walking outside with it is really comfortable."

"About this wheelchair, Mr. Shen, you wouldn’t begrudge me such a small amount of money, would you? I believe you’re that kind of person, who would definitely be willing to pay for this for me, please? If not, let me pay you back, but I might have to use your name, or else the manager might not be willing to sell it to me."

"This is obviously a new product here; it probably hasn’t been marketed outside yet. If I rashly wanted to use this outside, I’d need permission, which would be a hassle if I were alone. So, I decided to leave this matter to you. What do you think?"

Kang Yue said this with a chuckle, having already thought this through. Her spiel made Shen Dong marvel; she was really like a little bandit, always taking whatever she fancied wherever she went, not even sparing the wheelchair. I should have known already, to be aware of such a treasure.

Would this girl willingly follow me? It was hardly likely. But it didn’t matter; just buy it, it’s only a matter of speaking up. Besides, the manager would understand the affection for one’s wife, not wanting her to walk too much, so buying this wheelchair shouldn’t raise any suspicions.

Besides, I hadn’t really planned to take it out for research to compete with others. My businesses are already too many, and there’s still plenty to do. I need to finish those ideas before time runs out.

I can’t let someone else get ahead, so there’s no need for the creativity of this wheelchair. Just explain to the manager and paying a little extra is fine. That’s what I thought.

"Alright, alright, I agree. But you’ll have to wait until after it’s over, and just sit here peacefully, okay? You have to promise me, you can’t make a fuss. I didn’t bring many people out with me today, and most folks here have some ties to the underworld. You have to be careful at a time like this, but luckily he gave me a face mask beforehand."

"Let’s take this mask to the private room, where no one else can see us. Then we can use it to observe from above. I believe it will be an exhilarating sight, but I don’t know if you can handle it because there might be bloodshed, and it can be quite gory. I don’t know if a girl like you can stand it."

"I just wanted to take you out for a change of scenery, not to expose you to such a violent scene. If you don’t want to watch, you can stay there and watch TV shows or movies instead. They have an in-built movie system. After it’s over, you can help me pick, alright? Anyway, I’ll be in the private room with you, so it won’t be too boring or anything."

Shen Dong spoke these words, each one considerate of Kang Yue. When Kang Yue heard Shen Dong say she could watch a movie inside, she almost jumped up in frustration. How could that be?

What’s the fun in watching a movie by myself inside? That’d be less interesting than just staying home. Naturally, sitting here, I want to watch the fight. So what if it’s a bit gory? I’ve seen people fight before, I’ve seen all sorts of scenes, and now this too?

It’s laughable. So, she spoke up nonchalantly, "Fights make it interesting. Besides, we came here to lighten the mood, didn’t we? If I can calmly watch a movie there, hearing the shouts from below, then I really must have an outstandingly good concentration. But there’s no way I can do that.

I want to watch with you. Besides, how can I know who’s better and who’s a potential good pick if I don’t watch? If I don’t see anything, should I just randomly choose based on luck? I don’t think that’s right. You need to amend your ways. I wouldn’t want to pick someone useless and suffer the consequences later, giving them so much money for nothing.

If they end up being worse than the security guards, that would be a real disaster. But I trust your judgement; after all, you managed to choose a beauty like me to be your girlfriend, skilled and homemaking, capable of anything. That already proves your exceptional taste. Everything else about you is average, but your eye for people is unbeatable."

Kang Yue said this with a smile, essentially praising herself. Of course, without being so blatant about it, she playfully teased Shen Dong, who almost laughed in exasperation. Great, she was shameless, brazenly and unabashedly spouting such words. I certainly couldn’t do it.

He retorted with mock scorn, "You’ve really become shameless. Remember how in the past you would have never said such things? Who taught you to get so thick-skinned that you can even say these shameless words?""

"What do you mean ’thick-skinned’? Am I wrong? This is exactly how things are now for you. Without me, where would you get such good resources? Doesn’t that prove I’m your lucky charm?

In the end, doesn’t the fact that you chose me as your girlfriend indicate that you have good taste? Maybe you are good in other aspects, but I think your judgement is the strongest and I won’t accept any resistance. If you argue, you’re just contradicting me."

After laughing and finishing her statement, she sat up straight and tall as if she truly were that lucky star. Shen Dong didn’t continue to bicker with his girlfriend; after all, arguing back and forth was just the same old story. The manager smiled secretly at the sight of their affectionate behavior.

These two were quite the oddity; after all, most clients here were men, and it was rare for a man to bring a woman along. If they did, those women didn’t hold high status, unlike this gentleman’s wife, who was so prestigious, able to chat and joke so casually, and even say things that made others envious.
