"If you want to get hit, just cough," Wang Mengqi said sternly, her eyes flashing with shame and anger.
She hadn't expected her son to say such a thing in public.
Even though she had previously dreamed of becoming friends with Chen Nan.
But now.
After learning about Chen Nan's abilities.
She felt she wasn't worthy of him.
Seeing his mother's anger, Li Xiang gave a sheepish smile and said nothing more.
Then the four of them arrived at a large shopping mall in Kyoto.
"Daddy Chen, I want a toy," Li Xiang said to Chen Nan with a smile. He knew his mother might not buy him a toy if he asked her.
But he was sure Chen Nan would buy him one.
Seeing a large figure shop nearby, Chen Nan said to Wang Mengqi and He Shuqin, "You two go shopping first. I'll take Li Xiang around. We'll call each other later."
He liked children himself.
Let alone the fact that Li Xiang was Nezha in his past life.
He felt it was necessary to fulfill all of Li Xiang's childlike wishes before he awakened his past life memories.
After all.
Once he awakened his past life memories.
He would bear heavy responsibilities and missions.
And he wouldn't be so happy then.
"Just keep spoiling him!" Wang Mengqi shook her head helplessly, then put her arm around He Shuqin and walked into the mall.
"Sister Mengqi, do you like Doctor Chen?" He Shuqin asked Wang Mengqi curiously.
Wang Mengqi's face flushed, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes. "He's not my type!"
He Shuqin smiled and said, "You're clearly lying. I can feel that you have a good impression of Doctor Chen. Actually, there's nothing wrong with admitting such a thing. Who wouldn't like an excellent man like him?"
Wang Mengqi sighed, "Even if I have a good impression, so what? How can an ordinary person like me be worthy of him?"
He Shuqin pulled Wang Mengqi into a nearby jewelry store, found a lock pendant, and then took out the key, mixing it with other keys.
Wang Mengqi looked confused.
He Shuqin said, "Doctor Chen is like a key, and you are like this lock. As for whether you two are a good match, won't you know if you try a few times?"
Saying that, she picked up a key and inserted it into the lock cylinder...
Wang Mengqi was stunned for a moment, and then a blush rose on her face. "Shuqin, I never expected that a gentle lady like you could make such a shameless analogy."
"Am I wrong?" He Shuqin's lips curved into a charming smile. "Sister Mengqi, they say it's hard to chase a woman, but easy to chase a man. Since you have feelings for Doctor Chen, you must strive for it!"
"Let's go, let me take you to the lingerie store to buy some clothes that men like."
"As long as you wear them privately for Doctor Chen, I guarantee he'll be infatuated with you."
Wang Mengqi frowned.
I'm already a mother.
Do I need you to teach me about this?
------
Toy store.
Chen Nan and Li Xiang picked out many remote-controlled toys and building block toys.
They were piled up like a small mountain.
Helplessly, he gave the store clerk an address and asked them to deliver the toys to the courtyard.
After leaving the toy store.
Chen Nan bought four cold drinks.
Then he found Wang Mengqi and He Shuqin in the clothing section on the fifth floor, who were browsing for clothes.
By then, they had already bought a lot of clothes, and each of them was carrying several shopping bags.
When Chen Nan and Li Xiang arrived.
The two women immediately became pitiful tools...
However.
They hadn't finished shopping yet and enthusiastically entered a lingerie store.
The lingerie store was filled with dazzling underwear.
The variety of styles refreshed Chen Nan's understanding.
But because it was a lingerie store, he, a grown man, couldn't go in and had to sit on the bench outside with Li Xiang to rest.
Li Xiang kept looking back.
A child his age was very impatient.
He really hoped his mother would finish shopping soon so they could go eat.
Just then.
He saw a woman's wallet fall out. He instinctively got up and went into the lingerie store. At that moment, the woman had already entered the fitting room.
So he picked up the wallet from the ground and waited for the woman to come out to give it to her.
However.
The woman in the fitting room let out a piercing scream, "My wallet was stolen!" She then stormed out in a rage.
Li Xiang immediately stepped forward, "Auntie, your..."
Slap!
Before he could finish speaking.
The woman slapped Li Xiang across the face and shouted, "You little bastard, how dare you steal my wallet?"
The sudden scene attracted quite a crowd.
Many shoppers pointed at Li Xiang.
Li Xiang was stunned by the slap. When he came to his senses, he quickly explained, "Auntie, this is a misunderstanding. Your wallet was lost, not stolen by me."
His face was full of panic, but more so, he felt wronged.
Because in his life, he had never been wrongly accused like this.
The woman refused to back down, "My wallet was clearly in my bag, how could it fall out? You clearly stole it. You've been caught red-handed, and you're still being stubborn?"
"I didn't steal it, I really didn't steal it!" Li Xiang said, looking wronged.
Wang Mengqi and He Shuqin also came out of the fitting room. Seeing her son's right cheek red, Wang Mengqi quickly asked what had happened.
After learning about the situation, Wang Mengqi looked at the woman with a furious expression. "You must apologize to my son!"
The woman said haughtily, "The wallet was in his hand when I came out. If he didn't steal it, who did? You want me to apologize? Are you worthy?"
"Whether he stole it or not, won't we know if we check the surveillance footage?" Chen Nan walked in. He hadn't expected to encounter such an unreasonable woman.
This kind of person had to be taught a lesson.
He Shuqin looked at the store staff and said, "Please play the surveillance footage from earlier. We must have justice."
The duty manager said nervously, "I'm sorry, our store's surveillance is currently under maintenance and did not capture the previous footage."
"Such a coincidence?" Chen Nan laughed in anger. "Is your store perhaps biased towards this woman?"
The woman said condescendingly, "I am a VIP member of this store, so it's normal to be favored, isn't it?"
"Alright, alright, I'm a magnanimous person and won't stoop to your level. Hurry up and get lost!"
Saying that, she turned and walked towards the fitting room.
Chen Nan looked at the duty manager of the lingerie store. "You must give us a satisfactory explanation for today's incident, otherwise, this matter won't be easily forgotten."
"Sir, our store's surveillance is truly under maintenance." The duty manager gave an awkward yet polite smile.
"I hope you're telling the truth." Chen Nan said, taking out his phone and dialing a number. "I've encountered some trouble on the fifth floor at the Dream Lingerie Store. Can you come and resolve it?"
He called the person in charge of the mall.
The reason was simple.
This mall was also his!
