Chapter 210: Chapter 210: Girls Who Smile Have Good Luck

"You’re back."

Ruan Hongzhuang was sitting on the sofa, doodling in a notebook.

She was dressed casually today, a white short-sleeve paired with form-fitting jeans; simple yet perfectly accentuating her curves.

Shen Siyuan, curious, leaned in.

He saw it was all household items.

Bed sheets, duvet covers, hanging paintings, vase ornaments, and so on.

Some were crossed out, others added with a pen.

Clearly, these were things to buy for the new house.

"Does it need to be this troublesome?"

"Living life isn’t that simple," Ruan Hongzhuang said, giving him a look.

Then she suspiciously asked, "It’s your day off, where did you run off to early in the morning?"

I did not expect her to be such a jealous type.

But it made Shen Siyuan curious why she didn’t just call him and had to wait for him to come back to ask.

"Of course, I didn’t want to disturb you. But you haven’t said, what did you do?"

"I met someone for some business," Shen Siyuan said.

"What business?"

"Little kid, don’t be so nosy," Shen Siyuan said.

"I’ll bite you."

Ruan Hongzhuang opened her mouth to bite, such childish behavior from such a mature and beautiful woman created a strong, captivating contrast.

So, he got a firm "lesson" from Shen Siyuan, then she calmed down.

"Did you order takeout?"

Shen Siyuan asked Ruan Hongzhuang, who was now breathing heavily with slightly tousled hair.

Ruan Hongzhuang shook her head, this girl was good at almost everything, but just couldn’t cook.

As she put it, with restaurants and chefs around, why waste time cooking?

"Come on, go buy groceries with me, I’ll cook you something delicious for lunch," Shen Siyuan stood up and said.

Ruan Hongzhuang quickly headed to the bathroom.

Shen Siyuan: ...

When she came out of the bathroom and saw Shen Siyuan’s odd look, she somewhat angrily said, "I was just dealing with a physiological need."

"Oh~"

"Don’t be sarcastic, I’ll hit you."

Her outstretched hand, however, was caught, and she was pulled out the door by Shen Siyuan.

Shen Siyuan rented near Hai Chao District which had good amenities; that was why he chose it.

Just across the street was Haitang Mall, which integrated shopping, dining, and a supermarket across five floors and was reasonably priced.

A thousand meters to the left was Yindu Building, which also had a shopping and supermarket combo, but targeted wealthier clients with luxury items.

The only place Shen Siyuan could afford there was probably the restaurants on the eighth and the ninth floor—still pricey, but a meal once a month was manageable.

About five hundred meters to the right was Dolphin Square, with a huge dolphin sculpture in the middle, mainly a place for elderly activities; noisy at night, which Shen Siyuan didn’t like.

Dou Dou and Duoduo, on the other hand, loved it there, often lazing on the dolphin sculpture, watching people dance.

Shen Siyuan pulled Ruan Hongzhuang out the door, heading straight across the street to Haitang Mall.

On the negative first floor of the mall was Wanghao Supermarket, with a variety of fruits, vegetables, and daily necessities; Shen Siyuan often shopped here if he cooked himself.

After browsing, Shen Siyuan bought beef, chicken, and some vegetables.

"Don’t buy eggs; it would be troublesome to carry them when moving in a few days."

"No problem, I have a way," Shen Siyuan said.

Ruan Hongzhuang then remembered that Shen Siyuan seemed to own a Storage Bag-like treasure.

Then she grabbed Shen Siyuan’s collar, pressing her face close to his, discontentedly saying, "Where are my roses for today?"

Then a rose appeared between them.

Ruan Hongzhuang reluctantly reached out to take it.

"It’s been just a few days, and you’ve already forgotten. I doubt you’ll remember in the future."

"You can just remind me, right?"

"Is that the same?"

"How is that any different?"

"Should I set an alarm to remind me then?"

"Can we really do that?"

"How is this different from reminding me?"

"Of course it’s different, say it again and I’ll bite you."

"Are you sure?"

Ruan Hongzhuang blushed and spat at him.

"This is inappropriate in public, don’t mess around."

"Let’s go check out the daily necessities and see if there’s anything to buy."

Ruan Hongzhuang pulled Shen Siyuan towards the daily necessities area.

Previously, it was Shen Siyuan picking and choosing, with Ruan Hongzhuang pushing the cart behind him. Now, it was Ruan Hongzhuang’s turn to do the choosing, with Shen Siyuan pushing the cart behind.

"This toothpaste, can you..."

Ruan Hongzhuang spotted a toothpaste and was turning back to ask Shen Siyuan if he was used to using it, only to find him missing from behind her.

Feeling a bit strange, she looked around and soon found Shen Siyuan in front of a row of shelves.

Curious, she stepped closer and saw his gaze fixed on a plush toy on the lowest shelf.

It was a pink bear.

Ruan Hongzhuang recognized it; it was a character from the animated movie "Toy Story."

Named Strawberry Bear, also known as Lotso, he was one of the antagonists in the movie.

Their company even once exported merchandise related to this character.

Though an antagonist, the fluffy pink bear was still very endearing.

"You, a big man, like this kind of stuff?" Ruan Hongzhuang looked at Shen Siyuan with a puzzled face.

"Nonsense, I am buying it for someone." Shen Siyuan bent down to pick up the Strawberry Bear.

"Who are you giving it to?" Ruan Hongzhuang asked curiously.

"You’ll know tomorrow, by the way, are you free tomorrow?"

"Yes."

"Then come with me, you’ll find out then," said Shen Siyuan.

"So secretive."

They continued their shopping, and while passing through the infant products section, Shen Siyuan took a fancy to a bib.

The goose-yellow bib had a little white rabbit on it, looking very cute.

Shen Siyuan directly picked up two, tying one around the neck of Lotso and placing the other one aside.

"Are you really planning to give it to a child?"

"What else?"

Actually, Shen Siyuan himself found it odd. He only met the little baby once, but when he saw the Strawberry Bear, her silly happy face couldn’t help but pop into his mind, almost fooling himself into thinking he had whisked up a Heart Demon.

His Divine Sense swept through his body and found nothing unusual, only able to explain it with his own kindness.

At this moment, the little baby was heading home for dinner, following her brother and sister.

The weather was too hot, everyone was thirsty and the water they brought was already finished.

"Ah, if only I knew, I would have saved some," Xiao Yong said to Tang Tang.

Not really caring if Tang Tang could hear.

And Tang Tang still grinned foolishly.

Some kids saw a small shop by the road selling popsicles and made a fuss wanting to eat.

"No, we are about to have dinner at home, can’t just eat things outside," said one aunt.

One reason was that they were afraid of spending money, with so many kids, and popsicles for each would cost quite a bit. These people were not rich.

The other reason, some kids were too young, afraid they would fall sick from eating, that would be even more troublesome.

Just then, Tang Tang bent down and picked up a coin.

Xiao Yong took it, excitedly said to the nearby aunt, "I have money, I can buy it myself."

The aunt glanced at Tang Tang and smiled, asking, "Tang Tang found it again?"

Xiao Yong nodded.

"ha~ha~" Tang Tang continued to grin foolishly.

"Granny Zhang says, a girl who smiles often has good luck, your luck is so good, finding money every day..."

The aunt said smiling, then she took the money, went to buy a cheap popsicle, thought about it and added some money to buy a few more, letting several kids share one.

And Tang Tang naturally shared their one with Xiao Yong.
