Chapter 206
Before finishing my drink, I spotted Christopher’s mother on TV. This time, instead of wearing an evening gown, she was decked in a professional black suit. Clearly, she was an intimidating career lady. Her expression was calm as she answered the reporters’ questions with a pleasant smile on her lips.
I glanced at the TV and realized it was about a new amusement park being developed by his family’s business. Christopher’s mother was the idol of all women.
“Christopher, is your mom a fierce woman? Is she scary?” I asked in a small voice.
Christopher put his coffee down and pondered my question. After a while, he answered, “She’s quite fierce. My dad dare not utter a word whenever she gets mad. No one in my family dares to go against her.”
“Oh…” I swallowed nervously. Will she give me a hard time? Christopher will protect me, of course, but that’s his mother. If she finds out about me, I doubt she’ll accept me easily.
Perhaps my expression seemed grim, for Christopher burst out laughing and ruffled my hair. “My mom will only yell at her loved ones. If she hates someone, she will flash them a wide grin. I’ll be delighted if she yells at you the first time you meet.”
I shot him a smile and said nothing else. Shortly after, a couple behind me started feeding each other ice cream and drinks. The lady even ended up sitting in the man’s lap.
There was a partition between us, but I could see everything clearly through the gap. I found the sight disgusting and whipped my head around. Seeing my reaction, Christopher slapped his thigh and declared, “Come on up.”
Bemused, I shook my head. I refused to act intimately with him in public. It would be embarrassing if we ran into someone we knew. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
After that, we went to a few clothing stores. I picked a few outfits for Christopher, which he paid for. In the end, he picked one for himself. I compared the prices between the ones I chose and the one he chose for himself. The ones I chose were around one hundred grand each, while he paid four hundred and seventy thousand for his after getting a twenty percent discount. Is he compromising his standard because of me?
I was so engrossed in my thought that I stood in front of a store without moving. Suddenly, Christopher pulled me into his arms and brushed a finger across my waist. “I nearly forgot to get that. Thank goodness you still remember it. Let’s go stock up for the next six months.”
“Ah!” I belatedly realized where we were after he pulled me in. It was an adult shop. This was my first time here, so I lowered my head shyly without looking at the shop owner. Christopher showed me a few boxes of condoms and inquired earnestly, “Do you want spiral condoms? Super thin condoms? Or dotted ones?”
“How would I know!” My cheeks flared up in embarrassment as I kicked Christopher’s leg.
“Darling, I’m being liberal here. That’s why I’m asking for your opinion.” Christopher didn’t even flinch at my kick. He waved his hand and told the shop owner, “Get me five boxes each.”
“Sure! I also sell other interesting stuff in my shop. Are you interested?” The shop owner proceeded to introduce the various stuff on his counter. I never knew there were so many sex toys available and started wringing my hands nervously, eager to leave the shop. Alas, Christopher gripped my arm and showed no signs of leaving.
“Let me go!” I pinched his waist.
“No can do. If you try to leave, I’ll kiss you right here, right now.” Christopher narrowed his gaze and snickered. I knew he would do just that, so I dared not move an inch.
Instead of finding out what Christopher bought, my gaze landed on some contraceptive pills. I told the owner, “I’d like to buy one box of this.”
When the owner handed me the box, I was about to take it from him when Christopher toss it back with a frown. “Don’t use this.”
