Bigoted Mr. Fu Lets Me Do Whatever I Want - Chapter 318

Chapter 318: He thought he saw Little Munchkin, Chasing after her

Hua Wuyan held up the laptop in the salesperson’s hand and examined it. It looked not too bad, and Han Xiao approached him as he wanted to have a good look.

The other sales assistant standing beside Han Xiao was unwilling to be outdone. She hurriedly shoved the laptop in her hand to Han Xiao.

“Mister, if you would take a look at the laptop in my hand, it’s also light and easy to carry. It has a matching configuration as well. And it is good at running online games too. Please have a look.”

“Mister, this laptop is also not bad. You could try it out and see if you like it.”

“Mine too. The specifications are better than the ones they have.”

Han Xiao had his gaze swept across the several laptops in front of him. Ignoring their words, he picked the one closest to him. He liked the color and the design, so he took it to the counter in front and tested it.

Qin Shu had been standing there for five minutes. No sales assistants came forward to help her out because they had been crowding the two handsome men hard-selling their laptops. All of them were women, and the only male maintenance guy with glasses sat in front of the maintenance booth in the corner. Looking at the pretty lady who walked in, he regretted that he was merely technical support but not a salesperson. Thus, he did not have the chance to strike up a conversation.

Qin Shu stared at the laptop in front of her. It was double the size of her old laptop and was also one of the most expensive they had. The configuration listed was also the best, and it was suitable if she wanted to use it in the dorms. Her old laptop was more convenient to be carried around, using it anytime and anywhere, but the screen was too small, and she had a hard time using it when she studied. The computer she had in her study room was a desktop, and it was impossible to carry it around if she was to travel between her dorms and home.

Therefore, she had wanted to go to the mall to look for a laptop before her new semester starts. Since no one is assisting her, she thought she would try it out first. She tested the keys by typing something on the laptop to see if she liked it while Ye Luo leaned against the store entrance and waited, as long as Qin Shu did not leave his sight.

Hua Wuyan’s eyes were wandering at the several laptops in front of him. As he tilted his head to look at Han Xiao, he noticed a girl standing in front of the counter next to him. Hua Wuyan was 1.85 meters tall. Being surrounded by the crowd of shop assistants who were only 1.6-1.7 meters tall, he could easily peep at the counter beside. He caught a glimpse of Qin Shu’s beauty and was immediately mesmerized that he could not help but peep at her again.

Hua Wuyan then turned his body to the side to face Qin Shu, who was paying attention to the laptop in front of her. She had her hair tied in a bun with no makeup on. There were a few strands of hair dangling on her temples, her palm-sized face fair and unblemished. Her skin was flawless as a fine white jade and pure as the driven snow.

She had her eyes lowered, and from two meters away, he could see her thick and curly lashes, quivering like the wings of a butterfly, moving in grace as she shifted her gaze elsewhere. It was only after a moment that Hua Wuyan had realized that Qin Shu looked a little familiar—her eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Little Munchkin.

The laptop Qin Shu was trying was not like what she had imagined. Thus, she gave up the idea of trying out other models in the store, and she left for the other computer stores on the same floor. She turned around and walked out without anyone noticing.

Hua Wuyan was going to check her out for a little longer when she had left. He wanted to go after her but could not move because he was stuck. Being approachable all this while, he growled impatiently. “All of you, out of my way.”

The shop assistants were shocked by his sudden change in temper and moved aside. They were confused why he lost his composure out of nowhere. Hua Wuyan was about to chase after Qin Shu when Han Xiao grabbed his shoulder. “What’s wrong?” Hua Wuyan had always had a good temper. It was rare to see him impatient, and Han Xiao found it strange.

“I think I saw someone I know. Wait here. I’ll go look for that girl.”

Hua Wuyan was not sure if he had seen it wrong, so he wanted to confirm it. He ditched Han Xiao and ran off. It was summer and a weekend, so the mall was packed with people. As Hua Wuyan sped out, he scanned the area outside. People were walking around, but Qin Shu was nowhere to found. He continued further as he passed by a few more computer stores. His gaze swept across the area inside, but there was no sight of her. He decided to stop trying, and he left.

Qin Shu had entered the store next door as she picked up the display banner that had fallen on the ground. She placed it back next to the laptop, which matched the description. Someone had accidentally bumped into her, and she knocked the banner over.

“Hello Miss, do you have anything in mind? We have a few models here that were just released. You can take a look or try them out.” The salesperson said professionally with a smile.

Between the two laptops in front of her, Qin Shu had had a choice, “Bring that one over. I want to try it out.”

“Okay.” And the salesperson handed the laptop she picked. “You could try it out. This model has good specs. It’s great for playing games.”

Qin Shu had her full attention on the laptop in front of her, and she reached out the hands to test it.

***

Hua Wuyan searched the entire floor, but he couldn’t find Qin Shu. He made his way back to the computer store in frustration. Han Xiao was sitting on a high-legged stool in front of the counter, waiting for him when he got back. “Who did you see?”

Hua Wuyan walked over to the empty stool across Han Xiao and sat down. He had his elbow on the counter as he revealed, “I saw a girl just now that resembled the Little Munchkin. I’m not sure if I saw it wrongly. It’s been so long after all, and one would’ve completely changed. I just thought she looked like her.” He recalled the appearance of the girl he saw as he spoke.

Han Xiao’s eyes, usually calm and unruffled, rippled and swelled as if a pebble had disrupted the stillness when he heard the name. There had been no news about Little Munchkin all those years, and when Hua Wuyan had mentioned seeing someone who looked like her, he felt his heartbeat accelerate.

Han Xiao grabbed Hua Wuyan’s arm and probed, “Where did you see her?”

Hua Wuyan’s arms were hurting from his constriction. Quickly he replied, “She just came in, and then she left.”

Han Xiao got up, and he bolted, longing to find the girl who had resembled Little Munchkin.

Hua Wuyan looked at the wrapped box on the counter.

“I’ll pay. Swipe my card. Hurry up.” Hua Wuyan took out his credit card and handed it to the cashier.

The cashier handed the shopping bag over. Though Hua Wuyan had snapped at the shop assistants, he was still captivating, and the cashier could not resist the urge to stare.
