Chapter 235 - 234: Shopping For Baby Clothes

Eunji and Nathan went inside the Queen's Palace so they could finally have their dinner.

Queen's Palace truly lived up to it's name. Every ornaments and furniture found in the room had real gold in it.

Just like the table and the chairs they were sitting at the moment were painted in real gold.

There was a big diamond chandelier on the ceiling. Paintings by the world renowned international painters were hung on the wall.

There was a mini-bar counter stock up with the world's finest wine. Since Eunji was pregnant, those wines were no go for now.

Their utensils were neatly arranged on the table together with a portable stove at the center.

Nathan lead his wife and sat down on the chair which he had pulled out for the latter.

"Thank you!" Eunji beamed in excitement.

Like on cue, the two servers pulled out the dishes coming from the dumbwaiter and placed it in front of Nathan and Eunji.

While they were eating, a violinist was playing a romantic song on the background.

Since it was cold outside, Nathan had ordered a hot pot dinner, less the seafood and anything allergic to her, for dinner.

He recalled that they haven't had a hot pot meal during their dinner dates.

And since it's winter, a hot pot meal would surely heat up the body.

Nathan wiped up the beads of sweet formed in her forehead as she sipped on the hot soup.

Nathan helped his wife and wiped her sweats for her.

After they had their dinner the couple decided to make a trip to the mall.

They had not gone baby shopping since Nathan had been so busy in the office and after what happened to her.

Eunji wanted to buy it with him either to make it more personal rather than just asking their people to do it for them. Nathan had the same sentiments with his wife too.

They came unannounced and even used the backdoor entrance of the mall to not disturb the mall's shoppers.

Eunji even asked Nathan to wear his glasses back and mess up his hair a little bit so he would look more casual rather than the intimidating CEO vibe that he was always showing.

Only Derek and Darren were following them to not draw much attention.

Tang Hao on the other hand excused himself to go home early after he received a phone call from his mom that a family member had come over to visit them.

The rest had scattered in different positions inside the mall. They had also made sure that Nathan and Eunji would be on their line of sight every time.

One of them also got inside the CCTV room to have a better monitoring of the surroundings.

They had not also asked the manager to welcome them at the entrance earlier as they wanted to enjoy shopping on themselves.

But despite of their efforts to stay on low-profile while shopping, the four people's visuals were so outstanding, especially Nathan and Eunji's.

With Nathan's height of one hundred eighty-six centimeters and well-built body, he was like every woman's dream man.

What more, they were even surprised to see him getting inside a baby store together with his pregnant wife whose features could only match his.

Because of this, the expecting mothers who had gone to the store to shop alone for baby items could not help but curse their partners and husbands for letting them to go shopping alone.

They were even jealous as they saw Nathan's expensive outfit and watch. They already had thought that Nathan must be a very busy man but still had made sure to find some time for his wife since they saw the wedding bands on their fingers.

"Such a lucky girl!" Someone commented.

Upon seeing Nathan and Eunji entering with the twins following behind them, the available shop attendants wanted to approach them but got intimidated by Nathan's noble and intimidating aura despite his handsome face.

The woman beside him also possessed aloofness and indifference. In one glance, the couple looked untouchable.

However, someone had volunteered to approach the couple after they realized that the two had been looking around the store unattended.

"Hello dear customers! How may I help you with?" She said.

"We can manage." Nathan's snobby reply turned the attendant to be embarrassed.

Before the situation gotten worse, Eunji interrupted him and talked to the young attendant.

"Don't mind the old man." Eunji's nonchalant statement made the women around her even the shop attendants to be amused.

Nathan on the other hand just frowned.

'Old man? Who is she describing as an old man?' Nathan thought.

"We need to buy clothes for our babies but we had no idea where to start. I didn't know coming into a store like this could be a bit overwhelming." Eunji honestly told her.

She had gone some research before coming over and she discovered that this store had the best quality baby items among the baby stores inside the mall.

Shopping for baby items was not like a walk in the park or shopping for groceries.

There were a lot of things to consider like the safety and quality and the likes.

Having a lot of brands and products to choose from didn't help them either.

As for the clothes, they could buy those with unisex designs since Nathan was determined to make the genders of the babies to be secret until delivery.

The young attendant had listened to what Eunji was telling her and so, she guided the couple to their first destination.

The cot sections.

"We need three that would be sturdy enough to last long until one year old."

"Wow! Three? Congratulations!" The young shopkeeper didn't forget to congratulate the couple.

This news made everyone to be delighted at the same time more jealous of her.

Having one was already a blessing for couple who were trying to conceive for years now. What more having three? Her womb must have been blessed by the heavens more than theirs.

How old was she? She looked like she's not yet on her twenties. Yes, Eunji must have turned twenty five but her face just looked like she's eighteen.

"Thank you." Eunji didn't forget to thank her.

With her help, they had found their desired cots for the babies. It was painted in white since it's the most unisex and neutral color.

As for the bedding and the foam cover, they chose to have uniform greys and gold in color.

They could just change them into blue and pink later on depending on the gender.

Next was their changing table.

Nathan and Eunji had decided to customize their babies' closets as they preferred it than buying ones on the mall.

Next were the clothes, and other garments used by the babies like their blankets, overalls, caps, and towels.

Then, the bathtubs, baby bags, feeding bottles and their sterilizers.

They decided to buy the others when she was nearly due.

They had not even set up a nursery for them yet.

So for sure, there were add-ons to these.

"Thank you for your help!" Eunji sincerely told the attendant who helped them.

She thought they would be stuck all night and had not bought even a single item until the mall closed.

"No worries. It's my job." The young attendant cheerfully replied.

"Being a teen mom myself, I had gone through the same dilemma. You're lucky you had your husband with you. Unlike me, I only shopped with my best friend back then." She added.

"I'm sorry to hear that. How are you now though?" Eunji was not someone who would poke her nose on something unrelated to her but she could not help but sympathize with her.

As she looked at the young attendant, she looked like she's only eighteen.

"We're good." The young attendant said though it was clear that she was not.

"Hmm. What if I'll ask you to quit this job and I'll give you work that would compensate you double, would you trust me? You'll have more time with your kid and at school too if you're still studying." Eunji offered.

"Ahm...okay." Though hesitant, the young attendant accepted Eunji's offer. She could say that Eunji was serious and won't do anything harm to her, would she?

"Great! Go and submit your resignation ASAP." She told her and then handed her calling card at the same time.

"Thank you!"

After they were done, Derek and Darren sent all the items into the counter and paid it using Nathan's bank card.

They asked the storekeeper to send it to the private parking lot as their team mates would bring them to the mansion personally. No more delivery service to be safe.

Nathan sighed as he looked at his wife who was sitting beside him on the resting lounge of the shop designated for the tired pregnant mothers.

"Had I known that shopping for baby items could tire you out, we should have buy everything instead " Nathan said in all seriousness shocking the mothers who were resting there as well.

"Buying it all?' Is he serious?"

"Is he trying to call us poor?"

"Nah! Forget it. The prices inside this shop is already two times higher than the other store. He must be trying to impress his woman."

Since they were full-time mother their attention had probably been focused on household chores and sometimes on entertainment gossip that they didn't pay attention on business news therefore no one had recognized Nathan.

Their closest they could guess was that he was from an influential family and could be a businessman.

Also, even if Nathan had seldom appeared in front of the media for quick interviews, those video clips and photos, except those printed were taken down days after. Only those who were his crazy loyal fans would save the clip and shared on their group chats.

An odd behavior to say the least but Nathan and Eunji were not a normal couple to say the least.

That's why people with ordinary background (does not belong on the circle) were not really well-acquainted with Nathan unless if he was an idol or an actor.

However, before they could say more, someone who finally recognized the couple gasped in realization.

"That's Mr. Bai! Then then the woman he was with must be the Mrs. Bai!" The young woman said.

Her husband was an employee of Bai Corp and got the chance to see Nathan by chance when she sent her husband his lunchbox one afternoon.

But that was months ago.

"Eh?"

But before they could even say any word, Derek came back with Nathan's black bank card in hand. This was already a shocker to them.

"Master Boss! The shop owner didn't let us pay the items. He said that it's his gift for the future young masters." Derek said.

"And besides, you owned this mall, so it was also his way of saying his gratitude to you for letting him be his tenant." He finished.

Oh gosh! Forget about showing off!

He said what he said because he can.
