Chapter 936: Going to the City
After calming Zhou Siyu down, the two of them went shopping for clothes together. Zhou Siyu bought a down jacket for a hundred and thirty yuan and a pair of leather shoes, although they weren’t genuine leather, which cost fifty yuan. In total, they spent a hundred and eighty yuan, exceeding Gu Jianbin’s budget.
Originally, he had planned to buy a pair of shoes for himself, too, but seeing how much they had spent, he suddenly felt a bit stingy and couldn’t bring himself to buy anything else.
These items were all things that Zhou Siyu couldn’t bring herself to buy, but each time the shopkeeper complimented him, his vanity erupted and he insisted on buying them, so Zhou Siyu couldn’t be blamed.
After they finished shopping, he took Zhou Siyu out to eat. Zhou Siyu knew when to stop, and since Gu Jianbin had spent a lot on clothes, she took the initiative to just buy a couple of steamed buns to fill their stomachs when it came time to eat.
Gu Jianbin felt that it was too unfair to her, but she smiled and said, "As long as I’m with you, I don’t mind eating just steamed buns or even chaff and vegetation; I’d still be happy. If you really feel bad about it, why don’t we go see a movie? It’s still early anyway, and we’re not in a hurry to go back."
Zhou Siyu didn’t want to go back and face Wang Erfeng’s stern face.
Compared to buying clothes, spending a few cents on a movie really wasn’t much. Gu Jianbin didn’t think twice and agreed right away. The two of them, hand in hand and laughing, reached the cinema, never expecting that they would run into Shen Mianmian and her friends.
At that moment, seeing them, Shen Mianmian snorted coldly and muttered under her breath, "It’s a small world," but didn’t bother with them further.
With the New Year approaching, she had cleared the vegetables from her shop that morning and announced a holiday because she was going back to Beijing the next day. She planned to have lunch with Xiaocui and her friends and then watch a movie.
Little did she know, she would run into Gu Jianbin and Zhou Siyu just as she arrived.
