Chapter Seventeen: Working for My Uncle is So Happy!
ship wasn't as the rumors spread, but from his observation, Mr. Fu treated Mu Xing differently, yet it wasn't like romantic love. That was quite perplexing.Fortunately, Mr. Fu's character is something...Fu Lingxiao stood tall and straight in the center of the counter, his gaze quickly scanning past. He pointed at a dozen or so clothes like a general commanding troops, "Get her these to try on."
The sales assistant immediately took down the clothes, "Miss, this way please."
Mu Xing obediently followed into the dressing room.
Fu Lingxiao sat down on the sofa in the waiting area, picked up a magazine at hand, only flipped through a few pages, the little girl changed her clothes and ran to him, raising her small hands and twirling around, "Uncle Xiao, how do I look"
The little girl wore a dress with a Peter Pan collar. The pale yellowish color made her skin appear even whiter. The waist of the dress was fitted just right, highlighting her slender waist. The hemline featured a circle of pleated ruffles to add detail.
Looks sweet and playful.
Fu Lingxiao nodded slightly: "Beautiful."
Mu Xing also thought this dress was especially pretty. After putting it on, she didn't seem like a little bumpkin anymore. And the fabric was so soft and comfortable to wear. Little uncle's taste is really good!
Then I'll take this one!
Fu Lingxiao hummed in response and said, "After you try those we just brought in, buy them all together."
"It's alright, Uncle. This one is enough for me."
Fu Lingxiao was just about to speak when the little girl suddenly came up and whispered in his ear, "I peeked at the prices while I was changing clothes. These clothes are really beautiful, but they're so expensive it's frightening! The one I'm wearing now is the cheapest of them all, so I'll just buy this one."
A warm breath brushed past his ear, sending a tingling sensation like ants crawling up his heart. Fu Lingxiao frowned and shifted back in his seat, creating some distance between himself and Mu Xing.
"I'll pay for the clothes, you can try on whatever you want. If you get tired of trying things on, just pick out some that look good."
Mu Xing immediately shook her head and refused: "No, Uncle. You've already covered my food and lodging, and you reduce my debt by 100,000 every month. If I ask you to buy clothes for me too, I would feel uncomfortable."
And her uncle was so busy accompanying her to pick out clothes, how could she let him buy her clothes again
However, this little dress on her body was something she couldn't afford to buy herself, and she had to borrow money from her uncle.
Thinking about how her purse would be emptied of its 725 yuan and that she would incur even more debt made Mu Xing unable to help but feel troubled.
Frowning and pouting, like a little chick.
"This is an employee benefit."
Fu Lingxiao looked at the distressed little chick, "The people under my command have an annual clothing budget, and so do you."
With a raised eyebrow and gleaming eyes, the little gosling exclaimed in surprise, "Really"
Fu Lingxiao nodded. "Of course."
The bodyguards at the door: It's okay, Mr. Fu, go ahead and make up stories. We're all deaf.
Mu Xing directly cheered, "Wow! Little uncle, working for you is so happy!"
Fu Lingxiao raised his lips, "Go pick it."
"Good!"
Now that Mu Xing was reassured, she went to try on the clothes.
Every time she changed her outfit, she would run in front of the man and twirl around.
The little girl wasn't actually that short, she was 165 centimeters tall. It's just that the men were too tall, which made her look tiny in comparison.
Her figure is also extremely perfect, with the right curves in all the right places. She's literally a walking clothes rack.
Fu Lingxiao gave a genuine evaluation: "They are all very handsome."
Even the sales assistant couldn't help but praise, "This young lady looks good in anything she wears."
The little girl was delighted by the praise. She walked with a spring in her step, bouncing like a bunny rabbit.
The man smirked. No wonder he liked the little white rabbit so much.
After trying on all the clothes, Mu Xing felt her arms were sore.
I didn't expect trying on clothes to be more tiring than fighting!
She rubbed her shoulders and picked out two sets of clothes from the ones she had tried on. Although her uncle said this was an employee benefit, the clothes here were really expensive. Her uncle was willing to buy them, but she couldn't bear to.
"Uncle, I've made my choice!"
Fu Lingxiao looked at the little girl who was only holding two sets of clothes in her hand, glanced at the ones left behind, "Those don't like"
"No, I like all the clothes my uncle picked out, but I can't wear that many. Plus, I'm still growing, so I won't be able to fit them next year."
At this point, she thought of something and immediately turned to the sales assistant, saying: "Pretty sister, could you please get me a size up for these few pieces of clothing"
This way next year I won't be small anymore, Mu Xing felt like she was a little genius!
The man saw through her little scheme at a glance, took out a bank card and handed it to the sales assistant, "No need for a bigger size, just this one, take all the ones I tried on just now."
"Uncle!"
Mu Xing immediately grabbed the man's clothes, trying to stop him.
The man turned his head, but ignored her. He only glanced at the worn canvas shoes on her feet and told the sales assistant, "Bring some more shoes that match the clothes, size 35. Deliver them to Yu Zun Villa."
Mu Xing: "..."
Uncle, do you know how much all those clothes cost
The shopping assistant began to fold the clothes and put them in bags.
Fu Lingxiao got up, “I’m going back to the company. If you need anything else, tell Wu Butler.”
Mu Xing sent the man to the door and waved goodbye to his departing figure, "Goodbye, Uncle Xiao!"
Only after the man's figure had completely disappeared did she say to Wu Butler, "Butler Wu, let's go home now."
On the way back, Mu Xing kept thinking.
As the ancients said, not reciprocating a visit is rude.
Her uncle gave her so many pretty clothes and shoes, she should give him a gift in return.
But what does Uncle Xiao like…
His serious expression made Wu Guanjia curious, "Little Mushen, what are you thinking about"
I'm thinking about what my uncle likes.
Mu Xing looked at Wu the Butler, and suddenly her eyes lit up. "Butler Wu, do you know what Uncle has a particular fondness for"
"The young master is a workaholic, his life is nothing but work, no hobbies or interests, if you have to say what he likes…"
Wu Guantang thought about it for a moment, "It's the seal."
"A seal"
“Yes, when the young master was ten years old, his grandfather personally carved a seal as a birthday present for him. The young master liked it very much and often took it out to play with. Later, when the old master’s wife died in a car accident, the young master wore the seal every day, which could be considered a kind of spiritual sustenance.”
Three years ago, the young master was attacked. The seal blocked the bullet for him. I think this is Madam protecting the young master from heaven, right The young master escaped unharmed, but the seal was shattered. Because of this, the young master has been blaming himself ever since. Oh…”
When talking about the past, Uncle Wu sighed deeply, his mood a little heavy.
Mu Xing bit her lip, her black pearl-like eyes rolled, and asked Wu Guantao: "Uncle Guan, do you still remember what the seal looks like"
Wu Guantao nodded, looking at Mu Xing with a puzzled expression: "Why do you ask that Are you trying to..."
"Shhh, Butler, this is our little secret, okay!"
Mu Xing smiled sweetly and pulled Wu Guanjia's arm, "Butler Wu, tell me quickly, what does that seal look like!"
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you."luded spot, the bodyguard finally stopped the car and got out, standing by the door. He looked at Hei Zi's wary face and said, "I am an infiltrator, codename Black Dive. I've been assigned to Fu Lingx...
