Rebirth: Once Again With You-Chapter 495 Meng Renshu’s Wish

"I see. I'm sure that was a lot for you to take. You should go home and rest for now. Please tell me if you have any new information regarding that medicine."

"Wait, Xiaoyi!" His shout made her stop in her tracks. When she turned to him, he hesitated a bit before asking, "If you have time today, can you accompany me?"

Li Caiyi furrowed her brows. The last time she met up with him, everything turned chaotic. Although it wasn't necessarily his fault, she didn't want to invite more trouble.

"Sorry, but I have another place to go after this."

"Can't you make an exception just for today?"

What's wrong with him? He was being unusually pushy; it was suspicious. "Just spit it out. What do you want from me?"

Meng Renshu scratched the back of his head. "No, I felt depressed after finding out about Xiaohua's situation. I want to spend some time away from it so I can calm myself down."

Li Caiyi was stunned. That was a rather sentimental reason. Was he so shocked he would even use her to distract himself? Was she just playing with her again?

"I'm asking just in case, but what are you planning to do?"

"Not much. I will probably only ask you to shop with me, and we can visit an amusement park if you want to." Meng Renshu answered in excitement.

"Shopping is still okay, but amusement parks are not." Li Caiyi answered decisively.

'Don't joke around. I haven't even visited that place with Dai Zhiqiang just yet!'

"Then, you agree to come with me?" Meng Renshu's face beamed brightly.

"Yeah. I can accompany you tomorrow or the day after that."

His smile faded when he heard that. "It's not today?"

"What can I do? I already have somewhere else I have to go after this."

Meng Renshu was flustered. He thought hard before an idea struck him. "Xiaoyi, do you remember you still owe me a wish?"

Li Caiyi stared at him blankly for a moment. But then she remembered that she might have promised him something like that.

"Ugh, are you saying you want to use that wish now?" Li Caiyi groaned helplessly.

Unlike her dispirited look, Meng Renshu was very energized. "I have been saving it for a long time. I think today is the right time to use it. Why? Are you going to take back your words? I didn't know you were such an unfaithful person." f𝙧ee𝘄𝐞𝚋𝐧૦ѵeƖ.c𝘰𝓶

Li Caiyi massaged her throbbing temple. How could she forget when Meng Renshu helped her find the missing Dai Zhiqiang? At that time, he promised to help her if she agreed to grant his wish. She wasn't a person who broke her promise, but the timing was so wrong.

Now that he had pulled the debt card on her, there was no way she could refuse. It seemed she had to postpone her plan to visit the hospital another day.

Li Caiyi sighed in defeat before saying weakly, "Alright, you win. But I will only accompany you to shop and nothing more, alright?"

"Sure! Then shall we go now?" Meng Renshu smirked.

***

Meng Renshu brought her to a big mall where many stores from high-end brands were located. She wondered what kind of things he was searching for in this place?

He led her into a store from a famous and expensive brand. If she remembers correctly, this brand sold a lot of men's and women's clothing designed by renowned designers. A saleswoman immediately approached him with the brightest smile.

"Welcome, Mr. Meng. Thank you for revisiting our store. Can I ask how we may help you?" fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

"Yeah. I need some clothes, but we will look around first."

"Understood. Please call me in case you need any help."

Even the employee recognized him. He must be a VIP member in this store too.

Her thought was interrupted when Meng Renshu suddenly turned at her.

"Xiaoyi, make sure to look around too."

Li Caiyi sighed. Now he asked her to help him find something too. She really wasn't in the mood for shopping.

However, seeing Meng Renshu's giddy face, Li Caiyi eventually gave in. To be fair, he didn't ask much. It was still doable if she only needed to help him find some clothes.

Walking through the nearest aisle, Li Caiyi began to trace her fingers on the line of shirts displayed there. As expected from luxury goods, even the fabric was pleasant to touch.

Then her eyes fell onto a light blue-colored shirt. It immediately reminded her of Dai Zhiqiang.

Her boyfriend rarely used any color other than black, gray, or navy. Not that she complained since those colors suited him very much. Yet, she wondered how he would look if he wore a light-colored shirt like this for once.

His well-built and proportional body would surely look good in this.

'Should I buy this? Hmm, but the price is pretty expensive. Will he feel burdened if I give this to him,' Li Caiyi pondered seriously.

"Oh, that one has a nice color in it."

"Ack!"

Li Caiyi involuntarily yelped when Meng Renshu suddenly appeared beside her. He seriously needed to stop that!

Meng Renshu chuckled. "Light blue is actually one of my favorite colors. I'm happy you still remember it."

Li Caiyi couldn't answer for a moment. Come to think of it, Meng Renshu often used this color. It was just that she wasn't thinking of him when she saw this shirt.

Looking at his pleasant smile, Li Caiyi suddenly felt guilty. Like it or not, Meng Renshu once helped her, and here she was, using the opportunity he had given to pick clothes for some other guy.

"No. This one won't look that good on you!" Li Caiyi exclaimed before putting it back. Her eyes darted around before they fell to an elegant-looking striped shirt.

"Here! I think this one suits you more!"

Meng Renshu looked down at the shirt she had just picked, and his brows furrowed. "A striped shirt? I don't know, Xiaoyi. I don't think I've ever worn one before."

"All more reason for it. You always wear the same plain shirt with different colors each time. This one will bring more life to you!"

For an excuse she came up on the spot; it sounded pretty convincing. It was true that Meng Renshu favored simple shirts, though.

"Do you think I will look good in this?"

Li Caiyi nodded firmly. "Of course!"

Meng Renshu smiled shyly before taking it from her hand. "Well, now that you say it, this one is not that bad."

The saleswoman who had been observing from afar saw her chance. "Your girlfriend's taste is truly exquisite. This one is part of our limited edition series. It came with a matching tie and pants. You have a nice body, so a striped shirt will look good on you."

She clearly had a misunderstanding about their relationship. Li Caiyi felt the need to correct her, but Meng Renshu's following words blocked her from saying anything.

"Really? Hmm, then I'll take it."

"Alright. Should I add the pants and tie too in your purchase?"

"No need. She will help me pick it." Meng Renshu said while smiling at Li Caiyi. "I'll trust you to pick good ones for me."

Li Caiyi laughed dryly. The shirt was a part of a collection, so why would he want her to pick the other pieces separately? It was a major waste of time. However, she had promised him, so she could only swallow her complaint and look around again.

Not long after that, she again found herself distracted by a beautiful display dress. The color reminded her of delicious cranberry.

She went closer to take a better look. It was such a pleasing sight for her eyes.

Li Caiyi reached out to check on the price, and the price almost made her choke. It was nearly twenty times more expensive than the light blue shirt she had held onto before.

Ultimately, she returned her focus to finding clothes for Meng Renshu. It didn't take long since it wasn't that hard, to begin with. Meng Renshu could wear a rag and would still look fabulous in it.

As people say, a person's looks complete the fashion.

When they finally finished choosing an outfit for him, Li Caiyi was relieved. She thought that her task was finally done, but it turned out that Meng Renshu had another plan.

"Let's go to the watch store next."
