Chapter 1272: Sour Grapes

At the department store, He Jinxuan fully indulged Xinyan as always.

Everything inside and out was bought in pairs, under the guise of: buying less wouldn’t leave room for exchanges.

Listen to that, probably only he believes this nonsense.

One was happily shopping, the other was paying generously. When they went back with all the bags, people were gossiping: "Wow, Captain He’s wife is really a spendthrift.

Went out once and bought so much stuff, really doesn’t know how to live."

"Captain He is willing to spend money on his wife, why are you worrying for them?"

"Hey, what are you saying, we are just concerned about Captain He."

"Spending her own husband’s money and you’re worrying about Captain He, that’s truly laughable."

"They’re just sour grapes."

"Stop talking nonsense, such extravagance would deplete even a mountain of gold and silver at home."

"Captain He is happy to spend money on his wife, you’re really just meddling unnecessarily."

Xinyan, with her good hearing, naturally overheard their conversation, turned to He Jinxuan: "They’re saying I’m a spendthrift."

He Jinxuan was opening the door while pushing the motorcycle in: "I want to, so no one can interfere."

Xinyan smiled, and after entering the courtyard, took advantage when He Jinxuan wasn’t paying attention, and kissed him on the cheek: "Nice performance, here’s your reward."

He Jinxuan didn’t expect such a perk, glanced at the gate, seeing no one noticed, he flashed a big grin showing his white teeth, clearly very happy.

He didn’t bother pushing the motorcycle inside, closed one of the doors, and hastily ran into the house.

Xinyan was tidying up the clothes she bought, then got hugged by He Jinxuan from behind: "You teased me and ran off, that’s not acceptable."

Xinyan leaned back into his arms while laughing: "Then what do you want?"

He Jinxuan lifted Xinyan’s chin: "Naturally, compensation."

With that, not waiting for Xinyan to argue, he kissed her.

When they separated, they were on the bed already. After all, the courtyard door wasn’t fully closed, someone could come by anytime, so they didn’t overdo it.

Xinyan protested a bit, but the guy grew even more excited.

If it weren’t for hearing voices outside, they probably wouldn’t have stopped.

He Jinxuan helped Xinyan tidy her clothes: "You keep organizing what we bought, I’ll go check outside."

He Jinxuan was back in no time.

Xinyan turned to look: "What happened?"

Looking at his wife’s expression, He Jinxuan didn’t know how to explain: "There’s a fight outside."

Xinyan paused, seeing his expression: "Does that have something to do with us?"

He Jinxuan couldn’t help but laugh seeing her little concerned face, nodded at her: "What’s going on here?"

Xinyan was incredulous: "It’s just some gossip, but a fight breaks out?

I’m really impressed with them."

She shook her head and continued her task.

He Jinxuan leaned in again at this time, not to misbehave, but just placed his head on Xinyan’s shoulder: "Yanyan, what do you think if I transfer my job out, or apply for unpaid leave?"

Xinyan paused her work, looked up at He Jinxuan: "When did you start thinking about this?"

He Jinxuan nuzzled against Xinyan’s neck: "First, my transport team is short-staffed, they’ve been overwhelmed; second, running to the south more often has sparked some ideas."

Xinyan knew this day would come, just earlier than she anticipated: "Whatever you choose, I’ll support you. Just go for it."
