Chapter 89 - Buying Furniture

n
nThe next morning, the maid placed two sets of Chinese and western-style breakfast on the dining table.
n
nAs usual, Shang Yan browsed through the financial report of the day. He picked up his coffee cup, sipped his Americano, and waited for Qu Xiao to get up.
n
nThe sound of footsteps came from the stairs. Shang Yan looked up and saw Qu Xiao yawning lazily and coming downstairs in her nightgown.
n
nQu Xiao used her hand to gently hammer her slender waist as she glared at Shang Yan with a reproachful expression.
n
nThe hickeys on her neck and collarbone were clearly exposed, as if she was protesting Shang Yan’s aggression last night.
n
nQu Xiao slowly pulled out the chair. Her small feet swayed under the table, occasionally rubbing against Shang Yan’s leg…
n
n“The bed in the bedroom is so hard. My waist hurts from sleeping.”
n
nQu Xiao used a porcelain spoon to scoop up the white porridge. Her lips and teeth were somewhat indistinct as she complained. Her beautiful eyes furrowed as she stared at Shang Yan, waiting for his response.
n
nSuch a straightforward act of coquettishness made the maid serving the dishes’ hands tremble. The soup almost splashed out. The maid hurriedly apologized.
n
nShang Yan didn’t know what to do with Qu Xiao. He raised his head to look at the butler and instructed softly, “Change the bed in the bedroom to a new one.”
n
nThe butler looked at Shang Yan in surprise. He did not expect Qu Xiao to have such an effect on Shang Yan!
n
nHowever, Qu Xiao was not satisfied with this. She raised her head slightly and said in a teasing tone, “That won’t do. The husband and wife have to personally pick their bed. Only then can they sleep comfortably and have a good harmonious relationship.”
n
n“Why don’t you accompany me to the furniture store?”
n
nQu Xiao supported herself with both hands on the dining table. She raised the corners of her lips and her eyes flickered with anticipation as she urged Shang Yan to make a decision.
n
nThe butler was so frightened that his heartbeat quickened. He paid attention to Shang Yan’s emotions.
n
nShang Yan was an elite in the business world who had work to do every day. Why would he take a leave of absence for a trivial matter?
n
nIn order to avoid a rift in the relationship between Qu Xiao and Shang Yan, the butler bravely stood up and spoke on behalf of Shang Yan, “Madam, there are many matters in the group that CEO Shang has to personally handle. Please come to me if you have any needs regarding the choice of bedding. I…”
n
n“Ask Li to postpone my work schedule for one day.”
n
nShang Yan’s ears turned red. He lowered his eyes and tried his best to speak in a calm and cold tone, “Get the driver to prepare the car.”
n
n“Once you’re done eating, we’ll set off for the furniture store.”
n
nQu Xiao happily arched her eyebrows and immediately finished all the steamed eggs. She ran upstairs to change her clothes with light footsteps.
n
nThe butler stared at Shang Yan’s back in astonishment. The man in front of him was no longer the cold and indifferent CEO Shang that he knew!
n
nAt the furniture store, Shang Yan accompanied Qu Xiao to stroll around.
n
nInitially, they had only come to find a new bed for their bedroom. However, Qu Xiao wanted to go in and stroll around any shop that she saw. Very quickly, Li was following behind the two of them with a few sets of bedding and various small ornaments.
n
nShang Yan saw Li’s disheveled appearance and said, “Go wait in the car.”
n
nLi seemed to have been relieved and immediately quickened his pace as he headed towards the parking lot.
n
nQu Xiao pushed Shang Yan into the furniture store. When she saw a bed she was satisfied with, she pulled Shang Yan’s elbow and walked over. She naturally laid on the bed to try it out. Qu Xiao was very satisfied with the softness of the mattress and its degree of muffling
n
nWhen Shang Yan saw her expression, he took out his bank card and handed it to the shop assistant. “We’ll get this.”
n
nThe shop assistant’s eyes were very quick. She could tell that Qu Xiao and Shang Yan were rich. She excitedly led the two of them to another exhibition hall, “This chair is a new design from our shop. It’s a must-have item for many newlyweds.”
n
n“It looks like an ordinary chair, but there are a few hidden modes that can be operated using a remote control.”
n
n“The armrests on both sides can move freely. There’s a mode that allows the chair to move up and down continuously, simulating…”
n
nThe shop assistant explained enthusiastically. When she saw Shang Yan’s gaze, she stopped what she was about to say and revealed a decent smile.
n
nShang Yan’s ears had a strange flush. His hands were clasped on his legs.
n
nQu Xiao, on the other hand, was flipping through the manual with a calm expression. She sat in the sex toy chair and tested it with great interest. She asked seriously, “Is it be guaranteed to be safe?”
n
nIf a sex toy like this malfunctioned during sex, it would be a disaster.
n
n“Madam, you can rest assured that we are very strict in quality.”
n
nThe shop assistant hurriedly guaranteed. Qu Xiao nodded her head in satisfaction. She opened her palm to Shang Yan and hooked her finger to ask for a bank card.
n
n“Then get us one of these chairs as well. Deliver it to the villa together with the bed.”
n
nShang Yan looked at her magnanimous appearance, touched the tip of his nose, and acquiesced to her willfulness.
