It was almost Autumn, and the shopping mall’s air condition was still blowing cold air . It was a bit chilly .
Many people were walking in and out of the mall . Qu Yunxuan was wearing heels, and she almost fell when she tried to avoid a woman carrying a child . She grabbed onto Dong Xuebing’s arm . She continued to hold on to Dong Xuebing’s arm into the mall . Dong Xuebing was nervous . Aunt Xuan was holding on to him . He looked at her holding on to his arm and secretly peeped at her chest .
The first floor was mostly selling cosmetics and perfumes . The place was filled with sweet scent .
Both of them went upstairs and stop by the section selling men’s apparels .
Qu Yunxuan squeezed Dong Xuebing’s arm . “Xiao Bing, Aunt suggest that you should buy a suit . You will leave a good impression with your leaders . ”
Dong Xuebing nodded . “Okay . I will listen to you . ” Having a beauty like Aunt Xuan shopping with him was more important than buying anything .
A sales assistant walked over to serve them . She got a surprised look on her face when she saw Qu Yunxuan . Qu Yunxuan was too beautiful . “Hi, what sort of suit are you looking for?” Dong Xuebing noticed that the nearby sales assistants and customers were looking at their direction . They were all looking at Qu Yunxuan .
Qu Yunxuan started to choose the clothes for Dong Xuebing . “Do you have anything more casual?”
“Yes . ” The sales assistant pointed to the back . “Over here please . ”
Qu Yunxuan immediately spotted a beautiful design . “This shirt is not bad . Xiao Bing, come over here . ” She picked up the shirt and place it in front of Dong Xuebing . “Hmmm… . Quite nice . ”
The sales assistant smiled: “Yes . I think this shirt suits your friend . ”
Your friend?
Dong Xuebing was very sensitive to this word . In Beijing, people will associate “friend” as being in a relationship . For example, if Dong Xuebing were to introduce his girlfriend to others, he will say “This is my friend . ” It meant his girlfriend . It was the same as the others . For instances, “Oh, I heard that Xuebing have a new friend . ”
Dong Xuebing starts to imagine things .
Suit, leather shoes, belt .
Long sleeve shirt, long pants, sports attire .
Dong Xuebing had bought a set of new presentable clothes selected by Qu Yunxuan . Of course, the whole set was not cheap .
Dong Xuebing saw the sales assistant packing all the clothes and shoes, he took out his wallet . “Where is the cashier?”
Qu Yunxuan tugged his arm and laughed . “Let’s go . I have already paid when you are trying the clothes . ”
“Ah?” Dong Xuebing gasped in surprised . “Aunt Xuan, how can you pay for me? No . How much do all these cost? I will return you the money . ” Aunt Xuan had been taking care of him by washing his clothes and cooking for him . He was still thinking of getting her a gift since he had the money now . Instead, she bought the clothes for him .
Qu Yunxuan lifted her fist and said with a straight face: “If you say one more word, I will hit you . Let’s go . ”
Dong Xuebing shut his mouth unwillingly and carried all the shopping bags . He followed Qu Yunxuan out of the mall . He was still feeling bad for letting her pay for the clothes . Oh yes . It was time to change the handphone . The battery life was getting shorter and shorter, and the buttons were not responding . This type of imitation phones was also quite embarrassing . Aunt Xuan was also using an old Nokia phone for almost 3 years . Yes . I will buy her a new phone too .
“Aunt Xuan . I am thinking of changing my handphone . Shall we go to the Electronic Mall to have a look?”
“Okay . There is a Suning not far ahead . Let’s go . ”
The skies turned dark, and stars appeared .
200 meters away, Suning Electronics .
It was almost National Day, and there were lots of people in the shop . The carpark in front of the shop was fully parked . The moment they stepped into the store, they saw rows of counters selling computers and handphones . Around the corner, it was the home appliances section . It was also full of people . It seems that there was a promotion before the National Day .
Qu Yunxuan helped Dong Xuebing to carry 3 bags . “What brand of handphone are you buying?”
Dong Xuebing does not mind about the brand of handphone . He was more concern which brand of phone Qu Yunxuan likes . “What brand do you think is good?”
“Nokia, Sony, Motorola, are all good brands . ”
After walking one round in the handphone section of the mall, Dong Xuebing saw iPhone 4 advertisement on a lightbox . This was the latest model of Apple phone . A while before, it had been out of stock . Apple fans had queue up since 4 am to buy this phone . Dong Xuebing had also heard Qu Yunxuan talking about this phone . She was also an iPhone fan . But because it was too expensive, she could only envy others .
Dong Xuebing said . “iPhone 4 seems to be very popular . ”
“Of course . The design and specs are outstanding . But it was too expensive . ”
“You think it is nice?”
Qu Yunxuan laughed . “Of course, it’s nice . If not, why would so many buy it? I remember when iPhone 4 was launched in China, the prices had reached more than 10,000 RMB per phone . Now, the prices had fallen . It is also about 6,000 RMB . Haha . I just think that this phone is pretty . Wait for the launch of iPhone 5 and iPhone 4 prices will drop further . I will buy one then . I cannot afford it now . ”
Dong Xuebing made his decision in his heart . “Go over and take a look?”
“Okay . Taking a look will also not cost money . Hahaha . ” Qu Yunxuan really likes this phone . She stood in front of the counter and stared at the iPhone 4 on display . She even asked the staff to show her a display set .
The staff was a young girl who was good with her words . “Sister, iPhone 4 currently has two colors . White and black . We are having a promotion for our black color model . 16G for only 5,580 RMB . You are so pretty, and this iPhone 4 really suits you . ”
Qu Yunxuan looked at the display set and did not say a word .
“If you buy now, we will give you a screen protector and a leather casing . Also……” The sales girl could tell that Qu Yunxuan really likes this phone and starts to recommend .
Qu Yunxuan was hesitating . She seems to be thinking about something . But she looked at the price tag again and shook her head .
Dong Xuebing stepped forward and said: “Okay . Give us 1 set…… . No… . . 2 sets . ”
