Sheng Yeting had been looking at Xia Xingcheng since the moment she walked out. He had to admit, she looked good when she dressed up.

So instead of being stingy with his compliment, he said sincerely, "You look beautiful."

Feeling the admiration in Sheng Yeting's eyes, Xia Xingcheng's cheeks suddenly turned red, she lowered her head slightly.

The coyness she showed added a different kind of beauty to her, which unexpectedly, made Sheng Yeting could not move his eyes from her.

Ida was lost in her own thoughts about how good her aesthetics was, then she suddenly realized, the child called Mr. Sheng “daddy”, which meant, Mr. Sheng had a son? A son with this woman?

Ida’s eyes were wide open. She began to look up and down at Bao again. Indeed, he looked a little like Mr. Sheng in the eyes and the eyebrows area. Only he was a little too lively, which was not like Mr. Sheng.

After a long time, Xia Xingcheng went back to the fitting room, took off the gown, and changed back to her usual clothes. Because this store belonged to Sheng Yeting, so after the gown was wrapped up, Sheng Yeting took Bao and Xia Xingcheng to leave.

Xia Xingcheng put the shopping bag and Bao in the back seat of the car.

"Thanks for the gown, but..."

Xia Xingcheng looked at Sheng Yeting like she was gonna say something.

"Just say it." Sheng Yeting was irritated by her stare.

Xia Xingcheng scratched her head. "Hmm... I want to pay you back for the gown."

Sheng Yeting frowned: "Do I look like I can't afford it?"

"No, no, no, of course not." Xia Xingcheng sensed Sheng Yeting's displeasure obviously: "It's just, we both know what our relationship is, we’re not a real married couple."

Xia Xingcheng said while secretly watching his expression. Seeing that he did not respond, she then continued: "You helped me once before, so I owe you a favor. I will return this favor gradually. But as to money, we should be clear on that."

Sheng Yeting was gonna rage, but then he returned to his usual coolness.

"Sure. You can pay me back now. The gown is worth 130 thousand yuan."

Xia Xingcheng widened her eyes, it was unbelievable. "What?! This gown is 130 thousand?"

"Well, yes." Sheng Yeting curved his lips and said to Xia Xingcheng with a smile: "Because you are my wife, this is just cost price, the market price is over 200 thousand."

Xia Xingcheng was stunned immediately. Her eyes widened, she couldn't wrap her head around it.

130 thousand? She had lent all her money to Gu Xingxi. How could she pay Sheng Yeting now?

And it was such a waste of money spending on one gown which she would only wear for a couple of times. She was not like Sheng Yeting who could spend a fortune without even a blink.

Thinking of that, Xia Xingcheng softened her tone and said tentatively: "Is it too late to return it?"

"Yes, it is. Do you think I will return something I already took?" Seeing the painful expression on Xia Xingcheng’s face, Sheng Yeting continued to say: "Since you are so eager to pay me back, I will let you. I’ll write you an IOU, you can pay me back slowly."

Saying that Sheng Yeting really took out a pen to write one. Xia Xingcheng was crying inside. She couldn't return it and she had no money to pay him back. She could only take over the IOU with a shiver.

After signing her name on it, Xia Xingcheng’s heart was bleeding, she felt she became poorer in a few minutes.

Bao was looking at his mommy aside feeling speechless as if he was saying: Mommy, are you stupid?

Time flew, ‘twas noon. They were all a little hungry, so Sheng Yeting took them to an upscale restaurant.

Xia Xingcheng could only think about how to pay the 130 thousand back to Sheng Yeting, but nothing else. Sheng Yeting also showed no expressions. Only Bao was very excited because he had never eaten in a restaurant with his mommy and daddy together.

And mommy had never brought him to such a fancy restaurant before.

This restaurant was a very upscale restaurant downtown. The people came here were either rich or powerful. Sheng Yeting’s coldness and Bao's smartness immediately formed a beautiful scenery.

Occasionally, someone would involuntarily glance at their table, and be scared off by Sheng Yeting to glance again.

During their meal, a woman saw Sheng Yeting. With a flash of shock in her eyes, she walked up to them.

Liang Fengyue came close and made sure it was Sheng Yeting, then she said: "Yeting, it's really you. What a coincidence. I was going to visit your family in a couple of days. What’s the odds to meet you here?”

Liang Fengyue could not hide the surprise in her eyes, there was not only surprises but also deep yearnings.

Sheng Yeting looked up with some surprise in his eyes too, but only for a moment, he resumed his calm again.

"When did you come back to the country? Why didn't you call?"

"I just arrived yesterday. I was going to surprise you after adjusting jetlag. It's unbelievable to meet you here."

Liang Fengyue's eyes were locked on Sheng Yeting. Her gentle and generous demeanor indicated that she came from a prominent family.

"Okay." Sheng Yeting responded indifferently, without expression on his face.

Seeing Sheng Yeting like this, a hint of disappointment flashed through Liang Fengyue's face, but she was not giving up, she still asked tentatively: "Yeting, are you surprised to see me here? Aren't you curious about what I’m doing here? "

Sheng Yeting looked up at her just now. Her pretty face was reflected in his calm eyes. "What are you doing here?"

"Your mother was chatting with me a few days ago, she liked the bracelet from Chiengmai, Thailand. I specially asked someone to send it to me, and today I’m here to thank him."

“Thank you for your troubles.” Sheng Yeting softened a little and gave Liang Fengyue a polite smile.

Hearing their conversation, Xia Xingcheng was still eating quietly with no expression. In fact, she already vaguely guessed the identity of this woman. And from the way she looked at Sheng Yeting, it was easy to see she liked Sheng Yeting.

As Xia Xingcheng was thinking of that, Liang Fengyue acted like she had just seen Xia Xingcheng and Bao, she looked up and down at them and asked suspiciously: "Yeting, who is this?"
