Too Sad

The process of choosing clothes is very simple, after entering the store, Shen Yuhan only chooses thick coats and inner clothes that can cover himself tightly, it is completely impossible for him to choose men’s underwear in public.

The shopping guide didn’t have a chance to play his role at all, obviously, the V-neck sweater with exposed collarbones or something looks better, but he couldn’t see anything as if he was blind, and even Shan Qihuan felt that Shen Yuhan had such poor eyesight.

The good thing is that the styles in this store are all good, and the high-collar clothes can also bring out the temperament, Shen Yuhan’s foundation is still good.

The shopping guide is a man, and he enthusiastically takes Shen Yuhan to the fitting room to try on clothes, but when Shen Yuhan thought about changing clothes in this small cubicle with a strange man standing outside, he couldn’t accept it, even if his husband was outside.

No way, no way, he doesn’t want to try!

“I won’t try it on, just give me the size I can wear.”

“You really don’t want to try?”

“No, I don’t want to try.” Shen Yuhan still insisted.

The shopping guide tries his best to meet the customer’s requirements: “If it doesn’t fit you when you wear it at home, as long as the tags are not cut, and the clothes are not damaged, you can take it back and exchange it for another size.”

Shan Qihuan sat in the resting position, thinking that he would have to wait for a long time, but within two minutes he saw Shen Yuhan coming out.

“Are you done trying it or not?”

“I don’t want to try.” Shen Yuhan said.

Shan Qihuan put down the magazine and said: “Don’t like it?”

“No, I just don’t want to try on clothes, it’s too much trouble.”

“That’s true, let’s pick out a few things to wear first.” Shan Qihuan didn’t want to wait, shopping was really quite troublesome.

After discussing which sets to buy, Shen Yuhan didn’t think about the price, mainly because the payment was made by his husband, in order not to expose his stupid behavior, he didn’t rush to pay, originally, all his money was given by his husband.

The bags of winter clothes were all big, Shan Qihuan helped him carry one bag, and Shen Yuhan carried a smaller one himself.

Passing by a luxury jewelry store, Shen Yuhan’s eyes lit up, and he couldn’t move his eyes away for a while, he stood in front of the window and looked at it for a long time, Shan Qihuan in front walked for a while and found that there was no one behind him, so he went back to look for people.

Then he saw Shen Yuhan standing in front of the window looking eagerly at a ruby ​​earring.

“Go ahead if you want to look.” He noticed that Shen Yuhan was wearing earrings today, the small silver hoops were very flattering, not flashy or vulgar.

“Okay.” Shen Yuhan would not be reserved to his husband at all.

There are girls in the store, and the shopping guides are all women, this place makes Shen Yuhan feel a lot less stressed.

The two handsome men appear, and was immediately noticed by the shopping guide, the manager’s nameplate hung on her chest and she took the initiative to lead them to the counter.

“What are you looking for? Jewelry for everyday wear or something else? Rings or necklaces?”

Seeing that Shan Qihuan was beside him, Shen Yuhan said with confidence: “I want to see the earrings.”

“Then you two, please come this way.”

Shen Yuhan and Shan Qihuan were taken to the earrings counter, the manager brought three large boxes filled with earrings.

Of course, there are also many styles hanging in the store.

“Almost all the earring samples in our store are here.”

When the first box was opened, Shen Yuhan was mesmerized by the variety of earrings, for a moment, he didn’t know which one to choose, he used to have a lot of earrings, and he didn’t make a fool out of himself, just that his previous earrings were not so diversified.

This one looks good, that one looks good, which one to buy?

Fortunately, Shen Yuhan has his own opinion, he likes something simple, he didn’t like to wear anything too bright or too fancy.

In the end, he chose between two styles, one is ruby ​​stud earrings, and the other is rose gold diamond earrings.

The manager helped Shen Yuhan put on ruby stud ​​earrings, and pushed the mirror in front of him: “Sir, your skin is fair, and ruby suits you very well.”

It really looks good.

He looked at the two models, both look good, he couldn’t make up his mind for a moment, so he asked Shan Qihuan: “Husband, which one looks better?”

Shan Qihuan was stunned when he was asked, he had never been to a jewelry store with anyone, not to mention boys, not even girls, with Shen Yuhan here is also the first time for him, at most, he would buy watches, and rarely give purchase advice to others, the friends around him all had their own tastes and consumption levels.

Shan Qihuan had never worn earrings before, so he didn’t give much advice, if it was his sister who asked him, he would certainly be perfunctory, but Shen Yuhan tilted his head, his fair neck facing him, and he pointed to the ruby ​​earrings on his ears and asked himself.

Shan Qihuan had no expression on his face but said seriously: “They all look good, you can buy them all.”

Shen Yuhan didn’t see any joy in him, and thought he was getting impatient, so he told the manager to listen to his husband.

The manager asked them if they needed anything else, necklaces, bracelets, rings, etc.

“I won’t buy it for the time being.” Shen Yuhan is afraid that his husband would wait too long, and won’t take him out next time.

Shan Qihuan asked Shen Yuhan: “You’re really not going to buy anything else?”

In fact, Shen Yuhan’s gaze lingered on the bracelet for a while.

Shen Yuhan was not good at lying, so he blinked his shining eyes: “Can I have another bracelet?”

When he was in Qi Kingdom, he had the habit of wearing a bracelet on his left hand, sometimes he wanted to touch it, but there’s no bracelet there, it was empty.

“Then you pick another one, Manager, do you have a suitable bracelet? Bring them all here for a look.”

The manager agreed, and immediately went to bring the latest bracelet.

Shen Yuhan smiled shyly at Shan Qihuan, remembering his husband’s advice not to say thank you all the time, he changed it to a smile.

Shan Qihuan was swayed again and again by his smile, and his mind started to wander, as a result, Shan Qihuan personally picked up an 18K gold narrow bracelet and said: “This one’s not bad.”

Then he asked Shen Yuhan: “Which hand do you wear it on?”

Shen Yuhan looked at him with burning eyes and said: “Left hand.” His husband personally chose the bracelet for him.

Shan Qihuan, whose expression management is in place, put the bracelet on his left hand, Shen Yuhan’s wrist is one size smaller than his, and he can clearly feel the bones when he holds it, he is a little thinner.

Shen Yuhan also took a fancy to this one at a glance, thinking that his husband had a good taste, simple and elegant, he and his husband both liked the same bracelet at the same time, he was very happy.

“Husband, then I will take this.” The most important thing is that his husband picked it out for him.

The manager immediately stepped forward to help him wrap it up.

Shen Yuhan, who had gained another loot, carried the shopping bag by himself this time, the main thing is that it’s pretty light, and the heavy stuff is all in Shan Qihuan’s hands.

At some point, all the clothes and trousers purchased earlier were in Shan Qihuan’s hands, while Shen Yuhan is only carrying the jewelry in his hand.

Shan Qihuan asked him: “Is there anything else you want to buy?”

Shen Yuhan shook his head: “No more, it’s enough.”

Shan Qihuan glanced at him, and recalled that Shen Yuhan had been wearing very simple clothes recently, except casual clothes.

“Okay, if it’s not enough, have someone send a few more sets over.”

“Um.”

Just as they were talking, Shan Qihuan’s mobile phone rang, it was Assistant Qu calling.

“What is it?”

“Boss, Mr. Shen didn’t go to the dance class this afternoon, did you know?”

“Dance class?”

“Yes, the training center just called me, and said he didn’t go to dance class this afternoon.”

“He’s with me, start class next week, change his class schedule to five days a week, the driver won’t even have a break on weekends.” It’s too capitalist to not let people rest on weekends.

“…Okay.” Assistant Qu thought in his heart, you have two drivers, and they work on a rotating basis, there is no such thing as no weekends off, and the class schedule was personally changed to six days a week by the boss himself, and now you still want to change it?

Shen Yuhan was listening on the sidelines, dance class?

Yes, he did have a dance class in the afternoon, but it was the first time he went shopping with his husband, and he was so happy that he forgot about it.

After hanging up the phone, Shan Qihuan said to Shen Yuhan: “Let’s start the dance class again next week.”

“Um, um.” Shen Yuhan wanted to spend more time with his husband, it doesn’t really matter if he doesn’t attend dance class, he had also learned dance before, he has been in poor health since he was about ten years old, later, a doctor said that he could learn to dance, and sweat, so his family hired a teacher for him and practiced some basic dance moves, which was only learned to make his body better.

In their Qi Kingdom, dancing is learned by the girls and gers in the dance studio, while the girls in the boudoir and the gers from big families do not learn it, most of them study Qin, Go, calligraphy, and painting1琴棋書畫 (qín qí shū huà): the Four Arts of the Chinese Scholar (i.e. qin, go, calligraphy, and painting); the accomplishments of a well-educated person; music, Go, calligraphy, and painting―accomplishments of a scholar (of the old school). at home, or learn embroidery to embroider dowries for themselves.
Shan Qihuan felt that he agreed too quickly and asked: “Do you want to go to class, I have enrolled you in so many courses.”

Shen Yuhan was slightly stunned: “No, I quite like going to class, it’s more boring at home.”

“Is that so? Don’t want to hang out with your old friends? Don’t want to go to the bar? Don’t want to go racing?”

Shan Qihuan suddenly became aggressive2咄咄逼人 (duō duō bī rén): overbearing; forceful; aggressive; menacing; imperious; to browbeat; haughtily aggressive., and Shen Yuhan could only say: “I’m already married, so I have to learn to be steady.” He used Shan Qihuan’s words just now to reply to him.

“Remember your words, listen to my arrangements, and I can guarantee your pocket money.”

“What about household expenses?” Shen Yuhan remembered that pocket money and household expenses were separate.

“Of course, I will give them together.”

Shen Yuhan followed Shan Qihuan all the way back to the car, he returned home with a full load3滿載而歸 (mǎn zài ér guī): to return home fully loaded; to return home fruitfully; to return from a rewarding journey., feeling very happy.

It was his husband who drove the car today, and it was the first time he sat in the passenger seat, he learned to wear a seat belt, and there was a smile in his eyes.

Just happy.

Shan Qihuan couldn’t keep a straight face when he looked at him, he also played relaxing music on the way back, which successfully attracted Shen Yuhan’s attention, these modern songs are not as yah-yah as they were back then, it’s all in vernacular, and the melody is pretty good, but the lyrics are so straightforward that it makes people blush.

From the corner of his eye, Shan Qihuan would always see Shen Yuhan holding his warm face.

“Why is your face so red? Did you catch a cold?”

“Ah, no, it’s just a little hot.” Of course, Shen Yuhan was embarrassed to say that he blushed from listening to the lyrics of the song.

Shan Qihuan thought in his heart, he was neurotic.

Just then a call came in, it was from Liu Tan.

Shan Qihuan didn’t bring his Bluetooth headset when he went out, he turned on the phone speaker directly.

“What’s up?”

“Are you really not coming? I’ve seen that graduate student, fair-skinned and beautiful, doesn’t smoke or drink, has a good figure, has a face that you like, and a voice that you like to listen to, I see that many people are inquiring about him, I really don’t want him to be spoiled by others.”

Shen Yuhan pricked up his ears!

What graduate student? What fair-skinned and beautiful? What good figure?

Shan Qihuan didn’t expect Liu Tan to be so straightforward on the phone this time, and he even turn on the phone speaker.

He glanced at Shen Yuhan from the corner of his eye.

“I’m not interested.”

“People are coming, he seems to be here for you, Ding Quan and the others thought you were coming, so they sent the word out, you should come if you are free, we still have to stay till night.”

“We’ll see.”

“Be sure to come, if you miss it, it will be gone, he’s a top student in the Department of Finance, he has a good conversational skills, should be a good match for you.”

“I’m driving, hanging up.”

Shan Qihuan hung up the phone without a second’s delay.

Shen Yuhan heard the whole thing, the smile between his eyes instantly disappeared, and his face turned towards the window.

It turns out that his husband doesn’t touch him because he doesn’t like his appearance, his voice didn’t please him, he wasn’t fair enough, he wasn’t pretty enough, and he wasn’t a modern top graduate student.

After all, he is just an ancient man, who has studied a little bit, and knew a little about Qin, Go, calligraphy, and painting, modern people don’t like these things, and ‘Shen Yuhan’ has also been involved in a lot of troubles, his husband must be annoyed with him too, now he is simply devoid of any merit4一無是處 (yī wú shì chù): devoid of any merit; good-for-nothing; have no saving grace; everything about it is wrong..

The music in the car continued to play, and it happened to be a sad and heartbreaking love song.

The sky outside the window was dark and heavy, and Shen Yuhan’s heart became heavy with it.

As a proper wife, he was not as pleasing to his husband as those outside the house.

It’s too sad.
