“This… looks pretty good. Let’s buy it!”
“This one… looks quite stylish. Let’s buy it too!”
After breakfast, the two went shopping.
As they walked, Tang Hao bought everything that caught his eye.
“That’s enough! I’m usually busy with work, so I don’t get too many chances to wear all these trendy clothes. What a waste!” Zhao Qingxue said after seeing Tang Hao buying piles after piles of clothes.
She was very excited at first. Whenever she saw any good-looking clothes, shoes, or accessories, her feminine instincts would take over and her eyes would sparkle.
Soon after, she did not dare to show even the slightest bit of excitement.
If Tang Hao saw that she was excited, he would immediately take it and buy it. He did not even blink, no matter the price tag.
That was, of course, a good thing. Any woman would be excited with new clothes and nice shoes.
However, she could not possibly wear everything. That was a big waste.
“OK! Don’t buy anymore!”
Seeing that Tang Hao bought a lot more, she complained, “I don’t need so many things. I’m very happy that you can go shopping with me!”
“Alright! Let’s get one last pair of shoes!”
Tang Hao waved at the sales clerk, pointed at a pair of black high heels on the counter, and said, “Wrap them up!” As he said that, he handed over his credit card.
“What am I going to do about you?” Zhao Qingxue said helplessly.
She sounded resentful, but secretly, she felt delighted.
After paying for it and taking the shopping bag, she pulled Tang Hao and turned around to walk away.
“Enough shopping for today! Let’s go get coffee!”
She pointed at a café not far away and walked over.
She found a table and sat down while Tang Hao went to line up.
“Hi, beautiful lady! How are you? Shall we be friends?”
Not long after she sat down, someone came up and sat in front of her. He tidied his hair and flashed a confident smile.
Zhao Qingxue looked up impassively.
Her freezing expression could turn someone into ice.
That person became embarrassed. “Don’t be so cold, lady! I’m in IT, and I just cut an investment deal worth several ten million. Are you interested to hear about it?”
As he said that, he casually flourished his wrist and revealed the shiny gold watch on his wrist.
Zhao Qingxue’s expression became even colder.
She reached into her bag, took out her ID, and tossed it on the table. “Police! Do not disturb! Thank you! Also, that watch is fake, right? Do you think I’m blind?” She said coldly.
The man was intimidated.
‘The beautiful lady is actually a police officer?’ He felt extremely awkward.
“This… this isn’t fake! What do you know! This watch is worth more than a hundred thousand yuan. Can you afford it?” He said exasperatedly.
“Fine! Let’s go and get it appraised. What should we do if it’s fake?”
The man immediately shut his mouth and ran away hurriedly.
“What an idiot!”
Zhao Qingxue sneered and placed her ID on the table.
Soon, another person came. Before he sat down, he noticed the ID, and his expression turned into panic. He turned around and left without saying a word.
Several men did the same thing. Eventually, no one dared to step forward.
Tang Hao could not help but laugh as he watched from the side.
“That’s because she’s not in her uniform!” Tang Hao muttered.
Zhao Qingxue was too eye-catching. Her figure was too alluring. When she was in her uniform, she would keep people away. Once she was out of the uniform, she would attract many prying eyes.
Tang Hao had experienced her charm personally.
He walked over to the table after buying the coffee.
She quickly put away her ID and stuck her tongue out at Tang Hao. Her expression was delicate and cute.
She took a sip of the coffee and said, “It’s almost noon. Let’s go have lunch later and watch a movie! After the movie, we’ll go home.”
Tang Hao nodded.
In the afternoon, they watched a famous Hollywood blockbuster. The story was not very good, but the special effects were stunning and very enjoyable.
“I want to make a movie like this too!” Tang Hao sighed.
The people in front of him immediately turned their heads and glanced at him, as if they were looking at a lunatic.
“What’s wrong with you guys?” Tang Hao was frustrated.
Zhao Qingxue giggled and leaned on him. “I believe in you!”
“Really?”
“Of course!” She hugged Tang Hao. “You’re the best!”
Then, she kissed him.
“Dammit, don’t you have any decency?”
The people in front of them heard the sound of kissing. They turned around and could not help but curse angrily. They were extremely jealous.
“I don’t!” Zhao Qingxue replied candidly. Then, she continued to kiss.
Those people were at a loss for a reply. They turned back while cursing. It was better to look away.
After the movie, the couple went to the supermarket and bought a lot of food ingredients. Back at her apartment, Tang Hao cooked a meal.
He stayed with her for another night. He said goodbye to her the next morning.
The days got colder and colder. It was soon winter.
The Flowers of Youth finally bloomed. There were more than forty of them on the tree.
Tang Hao plucked them all when they were in full bloom. He took the other ingredients that he had prepared and began to make Pills of Everlasting Beauty. It had been more than a year since he last made it.
At that time, out of the five portions of ingredients, he only managed to make one pill.
More than a year later, his pill-making skills had improved tremendously.
There were more than forty Flowers of Youth, but there were only twenty complete sets of ingredients. From that, Tang Hao managed to make thirteen Pills of Everlasting Beauty.
That was several more than he had expected.
He did not have to give away that many pills. Only Officer Zhao, President Ling, and the others needed them. Yan’er and Bingyao were still teenagers, and it would be too early for them to take the pill
He was not in a hurry to give them out immediately. Instead, he would wait for the perfect opportunity.
‘What should I do with the extras? Oh, right, I can sell them. Perhaps I can fleece those idiots from Dragon Tiger Mountain. They might be interested.’
A few days, the movie was completed, and the first trailer was released.
Tang Hao was stunned when he saw the trailer.
‘This is too cool!’ That was Tang Hao’s immediate impression after watching it.
His confidence soared.
This trailer was produced in the Hollywood style. The most exciting and moving scenes were cleverly edited together.
The compelling narration on top of those blood-pumping action sequences with occasional comedic scenes made one excited about the movie.
Tang Hao was mentally prepared, so he was not too shocked.
Liu Yan, on the other hand, was completely stunned.
After watching the trailer, she froze in her seat for a very long time, her face full of disbelief.
