Unexpected Encounter:They Were Meant To Be Together

Chapter 209: Lifeless

Shopping Mall.

Xie Ming was dragging Singtan from one store to another and he was patiently following her without saying anything, forcing her to buy everything that she liked.

" You are saying the same thing for every dress." Xie Ming said.

Li Singtan shook his head and said," Its not my fault. You seriously look beautiful in everything that you wear."

Xie Ming rolled her eyes and entered the trail room again. She had tried almost 10 to 15 clothes in each store and each time she asked for Li Singtans opinion, he smiled and said," You look beautiful."

The sales attendant who was helping Xie Ming couldn't help but giggle.

Passing another dress to Xie Ming, she smiled and said," Mr Li sure loves madam very much. Madam is very lucky."

Xie Ming smiled and said," He is an idiot."

The sales attendant smiled and said," Here madam you should try this."

Xie Ming shook her head and said," I think this will be enough. If I keep on trying different clothes, my husband will end up buying the whole store."

Passing three sets of clothing to the sales attendant, Xie Ming said," Here pack these for me please."

The sales attendant nodded her head and left.

" Let's go." Xie Ming said.

Li Singtan who was holding two bags on his hand said," Already done? Why don't you try some more clothes?"

" That's enough shopping for today. Now let's go and buy something for you." Xie Ming said hooking her arms around his.

" I don't need anything." Li Singtan said.

Xie Ming rolled his eyes and said," Yes you do. Have you seen your wardrobe Mr Li? It's so lifeless and colourless. Business suits are fine but even your casual wears mostly consist of boring colours. Even your boxers and even your socks."

Li Singtan sighed and said," I don't like bright colours."

Xie Ming frowned and said," You are such a handsome man. You have any idea how good you will look when you will wear a blue, yellow, orange or red t-shirt? You will also look very cute if you wear a pink t-shirt."

...

After buying clothes for Li Singtan, Xie Ming sighed and said," I am tired now. Let's sit somewhere for a while."

Passing all the bags to one of his bodyguard, Li Singtan said," Keep them inside the car."

" You want to eat something?" Li Singtan asked.

Xie Ming shook her head and said," No."

" Alright then let's go to the jewellery section." Li Singtan said.

Xie Ming frowned and asked," Why jewellery?"

" Don't tell me that after buying so many things you don't want to buy some accessories." Li Singtan said.

" But I don't want any accessories. I already have enough." Xie Ming said.

Li Singtan shook his head and said," Those were bought when you were Xie Ming. Now you are Mrs Li so you have to buy some more."

" What kind of logic is that?" Xie Ming asked.

" You are coming on your own or should I carry you?" Li Singtan asked.

" I'll walk."

Grabbing her hand, Li Singtan started dragging her towards a jewellery shop.

.....

Jewellery shop.

As soon as they entered the shop, the manager rushed outside to greet them," Mr Li Mrs Li its an honour to have you here."

Li Singtan nodded his head.

The manager smiled and asked," What would you like you buy sir?"

Before Li Singtan could say anything, he saw familiar figure rushing towards him.

" Brother Singtan." She shouted.

Li Singtan smiled warmly and embraced her," You still remember your brother? I thought you forgot about me."

Ling giggled and said," How can I forget about you? Ah I missed you so much."

Patting her head, Li Singtan said," Come home someday. Grandma and grandpa were asking about you."

Ling smiled and said," Yes Yes I will."

Turning towards Xie Ming, Ling asked," Sister-in-law?"

Xie Ming nodded her head.

Ling cheekily smiled and pounced into Xie Ming's arms and said," Oh my God I finally met you sister-in-law. You are very beautiful."

Patting her back Xie Ming smiled and said," You are also very beautiful. You are Yutangs sister right?"

Ling nodded her head.

" What are you doing here? Are you alone?" Li Singtan asked.

Ling shook her head and said," No no brother I am not alone my friend is with me."

Daisy who was standing behind Ling gave Li Singtan and Xie Ming a very weak smile.

" Ling how many times do I have to tell you not to go out without your bodyguards? Will you ever listen to me?" Li Singtan said.

Ling puffed her cheeks and said," I don't like having bodyguards."

Patting her head, Li Singtan said," It is for your safety."

Ling sighed and said," Okay I'll bring a dozen of bodyguards along with me next time."

" Good. For now let me leave few people behind for you." Li Singtan said before gesturing one of his men to come inside.

" So Ling What are you buying?" Xie Ming asked.

Ling shook her head and said," Oh no sister-in-law I am not buying anything. We are buying few accessories for my friend Daisy."

" Oh that's great. You should buy few for yourself also." Xie Ming said.

" Ahh sister-in-law I have many. Brother Yutang brings a piece of jewellery for me every now and then. Even brother Singtan." Ling said.

Xie Ming was about to say something when she saw Daisy frowning at Ling with her hands clenched into a fist.

Ignoring the strange vibes that she was getting from Daisy, Xie Ming smiled at Ling and said," Okay we can talk later but now I think that you should go. Your friend is waiting for you."

Ling stuck her tongue out and said," I forgot about her. Okay sister-in-law I'll visit to someday. Bye for now."

Xie Ming smiled and nodded her head.

" She is a very sweet girl." Li Singtan said.

Xie Ming nodded her head and said," Yes she is. How old is she?"

Li Singtan thought for a while and said," I think she and Yufan share the same age."

Xie Ming smiled and nodded her head.
