Chapter 405: At That Moment, Luo Sang Found that Murong Cheng’s Face Seemed to Be Covered in Ice
Nian Xu stuck her tongue out at Murong Cheng, then said, “Sorry, my future sister-in-law is closer to me than to you.”
Murong Cheng shook her head with a smile. Looking at the two girls walking in front of her, she suddenly felt warm in her heart. In fact, a family was more lively with more people.
The second floor was occupied by lipstick counters. Nian Xi quickly moved between them. At last, she bought at least one lipstick from almost every counter.
Luo Sang laughed, saying, “You bought at least 20 lipsticks. Didn’t you buy any lipstick before?”
Murong Cheng rolled her eyes and responded, “She was busy shopping every time before Ji Chuan came back. Once Ji Chuan left, her lipsticks would disappear. I’ve bought her many pretty outfits, yet she never wore those. She only wears uniforms and doesn’t look like a girl at all.”
“I work in a police station every day, spending time with criminals. When do I have time to dress up? Besides, who would I dress up for? My colleagues? Those criminals?” Nian Xi sighed. “Forget it. They all look oily and gutless. Besides, the clothes you bought last year aren’t pretty enough. Don’t you know that girls are always lacking clothes?”
“You’re right. Let’s go upstairs and look around,” Luo Sang suggested.
They went upstairs to the jewelry department. Nian Xi picked three sets of jewels. Luo Sang didn’t want to spend too much of Murong Cheng’s money, so she only picked a necklace and a bracelet. After that, they went up to the next floor to shop for women’s wear. Nian Xi tried things on in every store. Every time she tried something on, she would be delighted with the result.
“What should I do? I look stunning in every dress. Well, in fact, being too pretty can be annoying sometimes.”
Hearing that, Luo Sang felt that Nian Xi was exactly the same as her brother. However, Murong Cheng didn’t agree. “How can you say that?” She said to Nian Xi, “This shirt makes your shoulders look so wide. You look like a tomboy in it, not pretty at all. Go take it off.”
“You have poor taste,” Nian Xi argued. “This is called ‘unisex beauty.’”
“Girls need to look gentle and demure. I think that dress is not bad.” Murong Cheng still didn’t agree.
“I don’t like wearing dresses,” said Nian Xi.
Luo Sang stood aside, watching Nian Xi and her mother. She admired them slightly. She had seen many mothers and daughters who got along with each other like this. Sadly, she hadn’t had a mother since she was little.
“Just buy it if you want.” Murong Cheng was so annoyed that even her stomach ached. Turning back, she found Luo Sang standing aside quietly and politely, wearing a white dress that she liked and a coat, looking very pleasant. At that moment, she sincerely admitted that her son had good taste, even though he could be strange sometimes.
“Sangsang, this dress looks nice. Go try it on.” Murong Cheng gave up on her daughter and pinned her hopes on Luo Sang. “Let’s go. We’ll try it together.” Before Luo Sang could respond, Nian Xi dragged her into the fitting room.
Luo Sang came out first. The elegant, brightly colored dress that she wore was perfect for attending all sorts of high-class parties.
“Not bad. Put on a coat, then you’ll be perfect.” After Murong Cheng had spoken, the shop assistant’s voice was heard from behind the door.
“Ms. Jiang, I haven’t seen you in a long time.”
“I’ve been abroad,” a woman responded with a smile in her voice.
At that very moment, Luo Sang found that Murong Cheng’s face seemed to be covered in ice. “Ms. Murong, what’s wrong?” she asked.
That woman seemed to have noticed Murong Cheng as well. She gave a start at first, then came over to greet them after hesitating briefly. “Cheng, long time no see.”
