Chapter 204: Careful

Chapter 204

"Wow, I never realized gold jewelry could be so beautiful. It turns out gold isn't tacky at all."

"So this is what gold looks like! I've finally seen what gold jewelry looks like in my lifetime."

"The jewelry from the future isn't as intricate as ours; most of it is minimalist. I really like this design. Divine Lady, could you bring a few pieces back for me? I can pay you for them."

"What a delicate gold necklace! Isn't gold easily broken when it's so thin? How can they make gold as fine as a strand of hair in the future?"

As the ancient people were discussing, they saw the sales assistant bring over several pearl styles, some round and some flat-round, for the three to choose from.

Some necklaces had a red gemstone set in the middle, while others featured cat's eye stones...

The ancient imperial concubines stared at these jewels, their eyes fixed and unable to look away.

Although they already had many pieces of jewelry.

But one can never have too much jewelry.

Moreover, with the enhancement of the lighting, those jewels seemed to be tempting them, urging them to buy, buy, buy! U//ppTodated fr/o/m nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)\/m

"I can't look anymore. How could there be such a good husband who doesn't criticize his wife for dressing immodestly, but instead supports her?"

"The shopping malls of the future are so enviable. If I could spend a day shopping in a future mall, I'd feel my life was complete."

"Hehe... Sister, your dream is too conservative. If you go to the future, shouldn't you experience planes, high-speed trains, and buses? And find a handsome man..."

"Hehe... I like the food of the future. I just want to eat and eat and eat."

Seeing the concubines laughing together, Gu Qingrou's eyes were filled with endless loneliness.

She gazed deeply at the man on the screen.

This man was average-looking, the type you'd never pick out of a crowd, but he was truly good to his wife. He could sense his wife's unspoken worries, accompany her shopping, and help her choose clothes.

In terms of appearance, this man didn't match his wife.

But in terms of his demeanor, conversation, manners, and attentiveness, how fortunate this woman was to find such a good man.

"Miss, your boyfriend is so good to you," the sales assistant said enviously when the Beautiful Elder Sister's husband took out his phone to pay.

She had seen many customers and could tell at a glance who was sincere and who was not.

"No way, it's the emperor? The Divine Lady is actually scolding..."

"Why does the emperor always make the Divine Lady angry? It seems like every time the Divine Lady starts a livestream, she ends up scolding the emperor. I'm really curious about how the emperor offended the Divine Lady."

"Haha, this is hilarious. Although we can't hear what the emperor is saying, I can imagine how irritating his words must be to make the Divine Lady so disgusted."

After leaving the jewelry store, they visited two more shops. Before Gu Sang could react, the husband had already noticed that the Beautiful Elder Sister was walking a bit awkwardly. He looked down, frowned, and asked while looking at her feet:

"Honey, are your shoes hurting you?"

The Beautiful Elder Sister smiled: "Just a little bit. It's not too noticeable. You're so attentive, darling. You even noticed this. You're so good to me."

Hearing this, her husband immediately crouched down in front of her and said, "Silly girl, get on my back. We'll go rest over there for a bit."

"I'll buy you some band-aids later. Next time your feet are uncomfortable, tell me earlier."

"Otherwise, you might really get blisters."

The Beautiful Elder Sister nodded obediently and let her husband carry her to a bench in the mall's corridor.

Her husband crouched down and helped her take off her high heels. Seeing her already reddened heel, he stood up and said with concern:

"You two wait here. I'll go buy some band-aids."

After her husband left, the Beautiful Elder Sister smiled apologetically at Gu Sang:

"I'm sorry for delaying your shopping trip."

Gu Sang shook her head: "Not at all. I didn't have any plans today, and I'm very happy that I got to see how you and your husband interact. This is a great example for many young women of what to look for when they start their own families in the future."

"You've shown me the mutual understanding and respect between you as a couple, and you've also shown many people how to choose their future partners."

Hearing Gu Sang's words, a sweet happiness flashed across the Beautiful Elder Sister's smile.

She said with a smile: "Yes, when choosing a partner, you must use your heart to feel, not your eyes to see, because eyes can be deceiving!"

"Moreover, as someone who's been through it, I want to tell you that love is mutual. No one can be unconditionally good to you."

"When he's good to you, you should praise him, and always be grateful. You need to notice his efforts and express it verbally."

"Actually, men need to be coddled too."
