Song Wenxin browsed through the menu and selected a few spicy and richly flavored dishes.

 Fish Poached in Chilli Oil, MaPo Tofu, and Braised Eggplant with Minced Meat… these were the dishes that Song Wenxin’s often cooked at home.

 Noticing that Song Wenxin had selected the spicy dishes, Jiang Beihan frowned slightly, asking, “You’re not affected by the heat from these dishes?” As he glanced at her silky-smooth complexion, he hoped that, going forward, he would not have to put up with a pimply Song Wenxin on a daily basis because of her preference for spicy food!

 1“No problem, I just drink plenty of tea to counter it,” replied Song Wenxin nonchalantly. A little extra heat in her system was a small price to pay for delectable cuisine.

 Seeing that she was not too bothered, Jiang Beihan did not broach the subject further.

 “Oh, right. Since I have no classes in the afternoon, I should make a trip home!” Song Wenxin announced, busily eating her food while talking to Jiang Beihan.

 Since she had not gone home yesterday, she needed to show her face at home today, otherwise, her family members would worry.

 For some reason that she could not explain, she felt that she should inform Jiang Beihan of her decision.

 Suddenly, Jiang Beihan put down his chopsticks and looked at her, expressionless, saying in a commanding tone, “Going to the mall later!”

 “Why go to the mall?” Song Wenxin asked, not understanding what he meant. Did he mean that he wanted her to go with him to the mall?

 “To buy home appliances!”

 “Why buy home appliances?”

 Jiang Beihan shot her a glance and asked, “Weren’t you complaining that it’s way too quiet at home?” Who was it who had complained last night that it was way to quiet in the house?

 Song Wenxin paused. It was true that Jiang Beihan’s villa was deadly quiet.

 There was not even a TV set in the bedroom, giving one the impression that it was not a place where people lived. Indeed, there was definitely room for improvement!

 If it had not been too quiet in the bedroom the last night, she would not have gone to the study…

 Recalling what had happened the last night in the study, Song Wenxin’s face flushed a flaming red uncontrollably…

 “Why do you look so flushed?” Jiang Beihan asked, scrutinizing Song Wenxin, who was seated across the table.

 Flustered, Song Wenxin quickly reached out with her hands to soothe her burning cheeks and used the spicy food as her excuse. “Huh? I’m not… the food is way too spicy!”

 “Why eat it if you can’t take the spiciness? Song Wenxin, do you enjoy torturing yourself like this?” Jiang Beihan asked. Even as he appeared to be taunting her, subconsciously, he pushed the cup of tea, which had been placed in front of him, toward her.

 1Smiling guiltily, Song Wenxin reached for the cup of tea that he had offered and drank a large mouthful.

 …

 Half an hour later, they arrived at the home appliances section of the mall.

 Jiang Beihan and Song Wenxin were there to select an LED TV.

 Browsing through a wide range of LED TV sets of different brands in various dimensions and with varying functionalities, Song Wenxin felt a little overwhelmed.

 With the shopping assistant talking continuously, highlighting the features of each product to them, Song Wenxin was at a loss as to which type to buy.

 All this time, Jiang Beihan had stood beside her, reading some documents that had been saved to his phone, behaving as though he had nothing to do with the intended purchase.

 “Don’t you watch TV at all?” Song Wenxin finally caved in and asked him.

 It was not possible for the home of a normal person to not be equipped with a TV set.

 “I don’t watch TV. It’s too noisy,” he replied. He disliked anything that created too much noise.

 “Don’t you get bored, then?” Song Wenxin was dumbfounded. All he had to do was turn down the volume.

 “Nope.”

 Song Wenxin felt defeated. It was just too tiring to have a conversation with such an abnormal person.

 …

 After browsing for a long time, Song Wenxin decided not to look further and simply instructed the shopping assistant to pick the LED TV with the most comprehensive suite of functionality, and it was the most expensive model stocked in the store.

 After all, it was not her money that she was spending, so she did not feel the pinch at all!
