Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 273: Chapter 273: An Unexpected Reunion with an Old Acquaintance

Even though Lin Mengyao looked cool and elegant, her heart was like that of a little girl, fond of things that young girls like. At this moment, seeing this room full of trinkets that touched her girlish heart, Lin Mengyao didn’t know where to rest her happy eyes.

"I discovered this little shop by accident too. The things inside aren’t expensive, and they’re particularly creative. The last time I came here, they had a Vampire-themed crystal collection. I didn’t expect it to be a Brothers Grimm theme this time. If you like, I can accompany you next time as well. Their shop has a new theme every month; I wonder what the theme will be next time." Bai Ru said with a smile as she looked at the crystal pieces designed like a Candy House on the shelf.

"But wouldn’t this take up too much of your time?" Lin Mengyao asked while holding a small crystal mermaid.

"Not at all. I go shopping every month anyway. I’m just happy to have someone to shop with me. I’m just not sure if your gentleman here would find me, the third wheel, an eyesore." Bai Ru threw a playful glance at Xu Ke, then shifted her gaze back to Lin Mengyao, with amusement in her eyes.

"Not at all, as long as Mengyao is happy." Xu Ke responded softly, looking at Lin Mengyao’s sparkling eyes, breaking his silence along the way.

"You two have such a good relationship. I hope I can be as loving with my husband as you two when I get married, making others envious." There was a subtle longing in Bai Ru’s eyes, but it quickly faded. Her marriage was destined to be a union of convenience, so where could she find such good luck to love and be loved for life?

A hint of regret flashed in Bai Ru’s eyes, but it disappeared as quickly as her yearning did.

Since childhood, Lin Mengyao had only been to a jewelry store once, and that was with Xu Ke. This was her second time visiting such a place. Even though she was in her twenties, she was still like a little girl, touching this and that, her eyes sparkling and unable to look away.
