BXBX NOVEL Chapter 191 - 191: Unable to Decide
“No…” Xu Jiaojiao stubbornly denied it, but she was too afraid to raise her head.
“It’s alright. I’ve bought many types. I’ll try each one until you’re satisfied.” Qi Shenbai continued to tease her.
She could barely breathe anymore. Xu Jiaojiao only hoped that time would pass faster so that she could quickly change this topic.
“Don’t say anymore…” Xu Jiaojiao felt that her face was so red that it was about to explode! There goes her innocent image…
Seeing how shy she was, Qi Shenbai did not continue teasing her. Instead, he went to her room and brought her a change of clothes while he went downstairs to eat.
Xu Jiaojiao dawdled upstairs for more than half an hour before coming down. When she arrived downstairs, Qi Shenbai was drinking his milk.
He had not finished eating yet…
Xu Jiaojiao was helpless, but she still met his eyes. “Yunduo didn’t come back last night?” She tried her best to change the topic and act normal.
“No, she went back to the old residence,” Qi Shenbai said. At this moment, Xu Jiaojiao had already sat opposite him. She lowered her head and looked at the porridge in her bowl.
Just then, Pei Yan walked in. “Mr. Qi, Mrs. Qi, good morning.”
“Mm,” Qi Shenbai replied indifferently.
“Mr. Qi, I’m here to pack your luggage.” Every time Qi Shenbai went on a business trip, Pei Yan would be the one to pack his luggage.
“Go ahead!” Qi Shenbai’s tone was still indifferent. Pei Yan went upstairs.
“Are you going on a business trip?” Xu Jiaojiao finally looked up.
“Yes, for a week.” Qi Shenbai’s tone was no longer as calm as before. He was always so gentle to Xu Jiaojiao. “Is there anything you want?” Qi Shenbai wanted to give her a gift.
“There’s nothing I want,” Xu Jiaojiao said calmly.
“Then I’ll see what I can buy.” Qi Shenbai was persistent. Although he was very busy with work, he could still find time to buy gifts.
Xu Jiaojiao did not know why he insisted on giving her a gift. “I really don’t need anything. I have everything.”
Qi Shenbai ignored her. “Let’s eat.”

After dinner, Qi Shenbai was about to leave, while she was going to school. They were going in two different directions, so Xu Jiaojiao sent him off.
Pei Yan put his luggage in the trunk and got into the passenger seat. The butler left tactfully when he saw this.
Qi Shenbai stood in front of the car and looked at Xu Jiaojiao gently. “If I’m not home, don’t go to Fifth Avenue. Also, don’t run around and stay at home.”
“I know.” Xu Jiaojiao looked at him reluctantly. She suddenly felt a little disappointed that she would not be able to see him for a week.
Qi Shenbai could not help but pull her into his arms. Then, he said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, “When I come back, let’s try the ultra-thin one, okay?”
When Xu Jiaojiao heard this, her face turned red again and she gave him a reproachful look.
“Good girl!” Qi Shenbai said as he turned around and got into the car. He no longer looked at Xu Jiaojiao. He really could not bear to see her like this. One more look and he would take her away.
Without Qi Shenbai around, Xu Jiaojiao barely even had the energy to go to class. By the time she finally survived to the end of the day, she just wanted to go home. However, she bumped into Qi Yunduo in the corridor.
“Jiaojiao, can you go shopping with me? I want to buy a shirt for Zhao Yunxiao.” Qi Yunduo held Xu Jiaojiao’s arm.
“Didn’t you wash his shirt? Why do you want to buy a new one?” Xu Jiaojiao was puzzled.
“I just want to buy him something, that’s all,” Qi Yunduo said shyly.
Xu Jiaojiao had heard from Su Luo that Zhao Yunxiao’s family was very poor. Perhaps Qi Yunduo really wanted to do something for him. At the thought of this, Xu Jiaojiao hesitated for a moment. Since the house would be empty when she returned home, she might as well go shopping with Qi Yunduo. It would also ease her feelings of missing Qi Shenbai.
“Alright! I’ll go with you,” Xu Jiaojiao agreed.
“I knew it, you’re the best!” Qi Yunduo was unusually excited and happily walked out of the teaching building with Xu Jiaojiao.
Half an hour later, the two of them arrived at the largest shopping mall in Luo City, a luxury brand store.
Xu Jiaojiao sat on the sofa while Qi Yunduo was picking out clothes.
“Yunduo, haven’t you decided yet?” Qi Yunduo had been choosing for a long time.
“No, I’m in a dilemma! I don’t know which one he’ll like. Jiaojiao, do you think light blue or light gray is better?” Qi Yunduo raised the two shirts, looking left and right.
“Light blue!” Xu Jiaojiao thought for a moment.
“But the one he lent me is light blue. Will he have a lot of light blue?” Qi Yunduo was a little hesitant.
“Then light gray it is!” Xu Jiaojiao quickly replied.
“But what if he doesn’t like light gray?” Qi Yunduo was still unable to decide..
