The growth system comes at the age of 30

Chapter 214 This soft rice is too delicious! (4.4K)

Although he got up late in the morning, Li Beixing managed to punch in before 7 o'clock.

She is not the class teacher, so she doesn't need to be in the classroom to supervise the morning reading. It's okay to be a little late.

Getting up late has its advantages. Sufficient sleep makes her feel that her perception of the outside world is much sharper than usual, such as the singing of birds on campus, the fragrance of flowers on the lawn and so on.

The mood is much happier.

When she sat down in the office, she saw the message Chen Jingle sent her in the morning.

Two pictures.

The first photo shows a bag of bread on the table, probably five or six, plus a bowl of black bean and lean meat porridge, and a cup of soy milk.

In the second picture, there is only a plastic bag, an empty bowl, and a crushed disposable paper cup left on the table.

The interval between the two was less than five minutes.

Li Beixing: “…”

Where are you COSing Zhu Bajie?

I felt angry and amused at the same time, and resentful in my heart, why is he such a grown-up, but he is like a child and needs people to worry about him.

I quickly replied, "Eat slowly, no one is competing with you for it."

At this time, Chen Jingle was already buying groceries in the supermarket: "Okay, I'll pay attention next time. But I just eat fast, not swallowing it whole. I chew it up before swallowing it. The weather has been getting colder recently, and the breakfast in the cafeteria cools down quickly. If you want to eat it while it's hot, you have to eat it quickly, otherwise it won't taste good when it gets cold."

Li Beixing was convinced by him.

After running in the cold wind in the early morning, you need to eat something hot to warm your stomach.

On the other hand, when I wake up in the morning, I simply eat two slices of whole wheat bread and a bottle of yogurt.

Li Beixing was thinking, if he lived with Chen Jingle, would he have to get up every morning in the winter to prepare breakfast for him and wait for him to come back from running to eat.

This way you don't have to worry about your breakfast getting cold.

But then I thought, if we really lived together, he would most likely be responsible for preparing breakfast, and I felt like laughing.

Let’s briefly review today’s schedule.

Li Beixing sent a message to Chen Jingle, saying, "There are only two classes this morning. After class, can you go shopping with me?"

Can Chen Jingle say no?
Respond decisively: "Okay!"

It's okay to take some time to go shopping. I don't have much work on hand recently, so it's not too busy.

But since I have to go out, I have to rearrange my work plan for today.

The psychology course I was studying previously can be put on hold for the time being, and I can focus on completing the painting orders on hand first.

I should be able to finish the flower and bird painting that I was halfway through yesterday but had to wait until Li Beixing arrived.

As for the remaining orders, let’s talk about it later. Anyway, the owners are not in a hurry.

……

When Li Beixing came over from get off work, Chen Jingle had just finished painting the bird.

There is not much to prepare, just bring your phone and keys.

"Is it okay to wear this?" Chen Jingle put on his coat, shoes and socks, and turned around in front of Li Beixing.

Li Beixing nodded: "Very good."

Although the outfit is not very eye-catching, at least there is nothing wrong.

Neither of them likes fashion trends, both of them go for the simple route.

If you want to go out, just drive a car.

Chen Jingle likes to drive his A4, which has more space than Li Beixing's A3.

"Where are you planning to go?" Chen Jingle asked as he started the car.

Li Beixing's seat belt is good: "Let's go to Baida first."

"What do you want to buy?" Chen Jingle asked.

Li Beixing remained noncommittal: "Let's see."

The difference between men and women is revealed.

Men go shopping with a clear purpose. They go straight to the target store, select the goods, pay and leave.

Women pay more attention to the experience and the shopping process. They may not buy anything after shopping for a while.

Li Beixing hasn't gone shopping for a while.

Jiangbei is a small place. Even the largest shopping mall like Baida only has some popular high-end brands or affordable luxury brands, but not the top luxury brands from abroad.

If you want to buy luxury goods, you can either go to the provincial capital Pengcheng or to Qiongzhou on the other side of the strait.

Li Beixing has passed the stage where he needs luxury goods to show off his wealth and status.

Well, it should be said that she never went through that stage at all.

People in Lingnan tend to be pragmatic, and not many people actually buy luxury goods.

This refers to the general public who can afford it, compared with other provinces.

Those who buy luxury goods are not necessarily rich, and those who don’t buy them are not necessarily poor people.

For example, Li Beixing has a mix of cheap and expensive clothes in her wardrobe, half and half. After all, she is a teacher, and a Chinese teacher rather than an English teacher, so she has to dress in a down-to-earth way.

Expensive clothes are mostly custom-made by master craftsmen, and their value lies in the fabrics and craftsmanship.

It doesn’t mean that rich people’s wardrobes are filled with luxury brands.

Maybe this is the case in other places or other families, but not in Li Beixing's family, even though her family assets are in the tens digits.

This is also why settings such as the Cantonese prince or the Cantonese lady are rarely seen in various Mary Sue novels.

Because the character doesn't match.

You can't write about a rich girl following a young master to a farm to eat roast goose, right? How embarrassing!

However, the wealthy families in Lingnan can really do such a thing.

Li Beixing often went to eat farm meals with her parents.

If we have to name the prince of the Cantonese circle, Tai Zi Bing should be one of them.

When they arrived at Baida, Li Beixing took Chen Jingle straight to the men's clothing area of a clothing brand.

Ok? !

Chen Jingle was puzzled: "Don't you want to buy it?"

Li Beixing raised his eyebrows: "Can't I buy it for you?"

Her purpose today was to bring Chen Jingle here to spend money. She herself had everything she needed, but she wanted to buy something for Chen Jingle.

In a sense, this is also a manifestation of possessiveness.

"Uh, sure. Of course."

Chen Jingle laughed dumbly: "Although it seems like she is just a gigolo."

"Is this called living off a gigolo? Your requirements for living off a gigolo are too low." Li Beixing chuckled.

Chen Jingle smiled but said nothing.

To be honest, the only woman who bought clothes for him since he was a child was his mother.

And the last time was in junior high school.

Li Beixing is the second one.

Since the advent of online shopping, he basically buys clothes online. He just needs to remember his size and choose according to the size.

His size is normal, and there are many options to choose from.

Even if you buy something that doesn't fit, you can just return it.

Therefore, I haven’t been to a physical clothing store for a long time.

……

"You seem to have grown taller?"

Li Beixing suddenly looked up at Chen Jingle.

She clearly remembered that when she first met Chen Jingle, he was not this tall. How come he seemed to have grown a lot taller in just two months?
Could it be that she is wearing insoles to increase her height?

Probably not.

Does that mean you really grew taller?

At this age... can I still grow taller?
Chen Jingle nodded: "Yes, it has grown a lot, maybe it's secondary growth spurt."

Li Beixing blinked: "How tall are you now?"

Chen Jingle said: "1 meters barefoot."

"..." Li Beixing found it funny and punched him: "Who reports their height like this? Why don't you just say 1 meters?"

If he wears shoes with thicker soles, he can easily reach 1 meters. No wonder he looks a lot taller than before.

Chen Jingle smiled helplessly.

There was no way around it. When the system reminded him every day, it would be accurate to the decimal point, which affected him.

As long as he didn't reach 1 meters, Chen Jingle would say he was 8 meters.

After walking around, Li Beixing picked up a sweater and asked.

Chen Jingle glanced at the price tag, blinked and said, "Actually, there's no need to buy such expensive clothes. I wear anything the same."

If you continue to grow taller after wearing it for a period of time, it will no longer fit you and it would be such a waste.

Li Beixing glared at him for a few seconds and said, "I already said I'll buy it for you, I don't need you to pay for it."

The salesgirl next to them looked at the two of them quietly, and when she heard this, she started to gossip in her heart.

It’s so exciting!
"Your money is also money." Chen Jingle was helpless.

"Stop talking nonsense and listen to me! I'm happy to do it!"

Li Beixing snorted twice, picked out another pair of pants, asked the salesperson to bring him the right size, and threw it to Chen Jingle: "Hurry up and change it!"

Got it!
It seems like I have to eat this free meal today.

Chen Jingle had no choice but to take the clothes and walk into the fitting room.

While he was changing clothes, Li Beixing was not idle either and continued to pick and choose.

Now that I'm here, I definitely won't buy just one set.

When Chen Jingle came out after changing his clothes, Li Beixing's eyes suddenly lit up. The shopping guide and even other female customers in the store all cast their glances at him secretly.

As the saying goes, clothes make the man and saddles make the horse.

The difference between ordinary affordable clothes and more expensive clothes is often reflected in the materials and workmanship. You get what you pay for, so the quality difference can be a bit big.

The overall texture of the outfit Chen Jingle was wearing was very good. At least it didn't look like cheap street stall goods. It was much better than the one he was wearing just now.

When it comes to clothing, women do have an advantage over men in terms of aesthetic taste.

Li Beixing was very satisfied and reached out to help him adjust his collar and hem: "Don't worry too much about the price. If it looks good and fits, buy it. If it doesn't look good and doesn't fit, don't buy it. It doesn't matter if it's a cheap brand or a luxury brand. If you want some clothes to have better workmanship and texture, they definitely can't be too cheap."

Well, Chen Jingle admitted that the clothes he was wearing now did look more elegant than before.

At least 20 times the price.

This is the most expensive suit he has ever worn.

Before he could think about it, Li Beixing handed him another set: "Try this one again!"

Chen Jingle took it silently and transformed into a ruthless changing puppet.

After changing five or six sets in a row, Chen Jingle felt a little overwhelmed. Seeing that Li Beixing wanted to continue choosing, he quickly said, "Is that enough? I have a lot of clothes now. Just buy two or three sets."

Li Beixing said, "But from what I've observed, you don't have more than eight sets of clothes to change into, and your cloakroom is empty. It would be better to buy a few more sets."

"Aren't eight sets enough?" Chen Jingle really didn't have any requirements for clothing.

"Where is enough?"

Li Beixing was not satisfied. She wanted to dress her partner up according to her own ideas and make him happy.

How much is this?

I said to the salesperson, "Don't worry about him. Apart from this set, please help me pack and check out the rest."

"Ok!"

The shopping guide glanced at Chen Jingle quietly and hurriedly took a pile of clothes to pack them into bags.

Chen Jingle smiled helplessly and said, "Okay."

Although it's not his, it still hurts to spend such a large sum of money. But I have to say that soft rice is really good!
Especially after Li Beixing paid the bill, he suddenly felt that he had been a little too pretentious just now.

She took Li Beixing's arm and said with a smile, "Teacher Li, I don't want to work hard anymore."

"..." Li Beixing was speechless, but smiled freely: "Okay, I'll steal my dad's pension to support you!"

Chen Jingle held his forehead with his hand.

Please, you are a gentle and royal sister, don’t learn to be abstract like others!
check out,
Chen Jingle took the bag and prepared to leave.

Li Beixing suddenly stopped and pointed his finger at a row of men's boxer briefs next to him. He asked with a smile, "Do you want me to buy this for you as well?"

Chen Jingle: "..., I think this is unnecessary."

A man can have other things bought by a woman, but he must buy his underwear himself!
If you ever have an argument and the other person says, "I bought every piece of clothing you own," then even if you take off all of them and return them, at least you can still retain your dignity.

Li Beixing covered his mouth and laughed.

However, her rosy ears showed that she was not as calm as she appeared on the surface. After all, this topic was too intimate.

They have just confirmed their relationship and are still at the hand-holding stage.

If Chen Jingle offered to help her choose underwear, she would definitely be shy and refuse.

Quickly pull Chen Jingle away.

……

Except for the bitter tea seeds, Li Beixing almost covered Chen Jingle from head to toe.

However this is not enough.

He then took Chen Jingle to a more secretive handmade tailor shop.

Li Beixing said: "My mother and her friends often come to this shop. The owner is a master craftsman, and his fabrics are very good. You can also buy fabrics yourself and come to help with the processing."

Chen Jingle looked at the various exquisite fabrics and finished garments in the store and thought, this is what is called haute couture.

In a small city like Jiangbei, it is obviously much better than ordinary luxury goods, and the money earned is from rich people.

Chen Jingle remembered what he had seen before, where a COSER spent a lot of money to get a set of high-end custom-made clothes because the clothes he bought online for his character were too shabby. After putting them on, he looked like a completely different person in an instant.

This shows the importance of tailor-made clothes that fit you well.

"Boss, please measure his size and make a few sets of clothes for him." Li Beixing said to the boss.

"Ok."

The gray-haired boss took a tape measure and after measuring Chen Jingle, he was a little surprised: "The young man has a very standard figure."

Chen Jingle smiled: "It's just so-so."

The boss pointed to a dark grey suit on the model next to him and said, "I have a suit that would suit you. Would you like to try it on?"

Chen Jingle looked at Li Beixing.

"Then let's give it a try." Li Beixing had no objection.

So Chen Jingle once again transformed into the ruthless changing clothes puppet.

When he changed his clothes and came out, Li Beixing was stunned.

"How is it? Is it suitable?" Chen Jingle felt a little awkward.

He hasn't worn formal clothes in a long time.

When working in the provincial capital, except for sales people, few people wear formal clothes to work.

Li Beixing's eyes widened.

If the clothes in other men's clothing stores enhanced Chen Jingle's appearance by 20% or 30%, then this formal suit enhanced it by 100%!

The texture of the fabric and the degree of fit are far beyond what ordinary ready-made clothes can achieve.

The key is to improve appearance and temperament.

Sure enough, it has to be formal wear!
"It still doesn't fit, just modify it. How about it, do you need it?" the boss asked with a smile.

"want!"

Li Beixing agreed without saying a word.

Chen Jingle: “…” I haven’t even asked the price, and you’re already saying you want it.

As far as he knows, this kind of high-end custom-made products are generally not cheap.

I selected a few more fabrics and asked the boss to help me make a few more sets of clothes.

Watching the boss demonstrating and gesturing at various fabrics, Chen Jingle was thinking that the skill of tailoring seemed quite interesting.

“I can study it later.”

Even if you don't do it yourself, it is a good choice to use it to choose clothes and fabrics.

"Don't change, just wear this one!"

Just when Chen Jingle was about to change back into his original clothes, he was stopped by Li Beixing.

She took out her cell phone and took a lot of photos of Chen Jingle, not forgetting to take a few photos together.

Chen Jingle: “???”

It feels like a domineering president is ordering his secretary to change into sexy clothes.

Fine!

The grasper has a short hand, and the eater has a short mouth.

I have to accept the fact that I have to eat and take things.

I have to say, soft rice is really delicious!
