Chapter 15: Tea Room

The two of them settled the wifi first and went to the ‘market’ Bai Yi had mentioned.

This was a small wholesale commodity market.

There were all kinds of decorations, lamps, and cheap small furniture. There was also a flower shop and a clothing store. It could be said that they had everything and were cheap.

Lu Qi had never been to such a place.

All kinds of tents were set up in a lively market. Small peddlers bargained with customers in the dialect of the suburbs of Hai City. The ground was unpaved with cement. When the car drove past, it bounced.

Lu Qi was not used to it, but Bai Yi was like a fish in water. She spoke the dialect of the suburbs of Hai City very fluently and was very familiar with bargaining with the owners.

The original price of a few artistic small ornaments was about 300 yuan, but it was forcefully cut to about 200 yuan for her.

Seeing that there were spider plants sold, she bought ten pots in one go, but she only spent around 50 yuan.

Soon, these things filled the car. Bai Yi sat in the car with a satisfied expression.

She was prepared to modify the bedroom balcony into a tea room. She would install a shelf and set up the small ornaments she liked. Then, she would lay out a small Japanese mat. She could sit on it and draw and play video games. When she was tired, she could even look at the greenery.

The pots of spider plants she had bought were only recently potted. She could slowly watch them germinate and grow up in the future, just like this home that had slowly become warm and complete in her hands.

When she returned home, Bai Yi could not wait to start decorating.

After laying out a small mat, setting up a small table, and arranging the shelves and flowers, the entire balcony became lively, but it was still a little empty.

Lu Qi watched Bai Yi busy herself and found it very novel.

Lu Qi’s family also had such a small garden and tea room, but those decorations were all valuable antiques. The tea room contained tatami and the expensive tea set that his grandmother liked.

The green plants in his house had been carefully nurtured by the gardener. He had never seen such a plant that had to be cultivated from scratch.

“I might have to buy some more decorations. I have to buy some vases, assemble a Lego, buy some blind boxes, or something…”

Bai Yi muttered to herself, but Lu Qi heard her.

“Do you want to go buy more?” Lu Qi asked.

“There’s no need. I’ll buy some myself in the future. I promised Sister that I would go shopping with her today. I can’t break my promise.”

“Go ahead. I have some Lego sets and blind boxes that I left with my friend previously. Just take them and set them up when the time comes.”

Bai Yi was a little embarrassed. “It’s all yours. How can I accept it? How about this? I’ll transfer you the money. This way, it’ll be considered buying your things.”

Lu Qi nodded. He knew that Bai Yi would not take things for nothing. The money for the things she bought today had not been taken from that card at all. It had all been from her own savings.

After Bai Yi left, Lu Qi called his assistant.

“Assistant Su, buy a few popular Lego sets and blind boxes and send them to Towerview Gardens. Not too expensive ones, just about 2,000 yuan.”

He did not understand what these young people liked, so he could only let his assistant choose.

“Try your best to choose something cute. I’ll have to trouble you to build the Lego set before sending it over.”

The assistant on the other end of the line was miserable. This was a tiring task.

The assistant was very fast. In the afternoon, everything was sent to the home.

Lu Qi took a photo and sent it to Bai Yi.

When Bai Yi saw the photo, she was extremely happy. Not only was there a blind box she liked, but she also liked Lego. It was even put together.

Bai Yi replied with a smiley face. “Thank you, Big Boss. I’ll definitely perform well next weekend and not let you down for helping me choose things.”

She was going to see her in-laws this weekend. She was prepared to make a good meal to entertain them.

“Actually, we can go out to eat. Your brother-in-law and I just want to see Little Lu and Little Lu’s family. My heart will ache if you have to cook so much alone.”

Bai Yi was shopping with Bai Ying. When she heard that her younger sister was going to cook, Bai Ying said with heartache.

“It’s okay, Sis. I’ll definitely perform well. It’s just a meal.”

“No, I’m afraid that you’ll become a housewife like me and be despised everywhere. You still have to have your own career. Furthermore, I don’t know what’s going on with your in-laws yet. I’m afraid you’ll end up like me.”

When Bai Ying married her husband, Nie Hong, the Nie family had put on airs. They looked down on her from their noises. She was afraid that her younger sister would suffer the same.
