Chapter 143: He bought this cup for himself!

Gu Chen saw that her daughter seemed to like the cup very much, and she walked over with a smile.

'Does Tangtang like this?'

Without turning her head, the little girl was full of the glass water cup in front of her, and she nodded seriously without hesitation, 'Yes!'

Afterwards, as if she had remembered something, her face fell and she looked disappointed.

'But mummy said we didn't need to buy a cup, and even if we did, we had to buy an iron one, because glass breaks~'

Because the family was poor, and because Tangtang was young and couldn't hold a cup steady,

Ji Pianran had never bought Tangtang a glass cup. She used the kind of small iron tank instead.

It was similar to the kind you get when you buy two taels of white wine.

Although they were both cups, the iron one was sturdy.

When Tang Tang dropped it, the porcelain on top fell off, but the glass didn't break!

The little girl looked at the glass water cup on the shelf with reluctance.

She really liked it very much.

Seeing that his daughter liked it so much, Gu Chen took it out without saying a word.

'Daddy will buy it for you!' Hearing that her father was going to buy her a cup, the little one couldn't stop smiling.

'Daddy is the best in the world!'

Gu Chen reached out and gave her little nose a gentle scratch before reaching out and handing the cup to the shopkeeper.

'How much is this mug?'

After that, his gaze shifted to the small cart next to the door.

A sign advertising a sale was standing on it.

There was a pile of thermos flasks of different colours and styles.

There was a black thermos mug inside that looked quite good.

To be honest, Gu Chen had not intended to buy a thermos mug for himself, but seeing that it was on sale, he couldn't help but hesitate a little.

It's not that he doesn't want to buy himself a better one.

It's just that he doesn't have any particular requirements for a thermos.

As long as it works, and since he's always on the go, it's really convenient to have a thermos with him, especially since it's on sale.

So thinking, Gu Chen reached out and took one out.

He was going to buy it for himself to use casually first.

As for Ji Piannan, he would go buy it in the building directly when he came to pick up the results tomorrow.

Gu Chen paid for both cups and then tenderly handed over the little white rabbit cup to her.

The little one was overjoyed with the cup.

She immediately smiled, showing her little white teeth.

Her dark eyes fixedly stared at the little white rabbit on top, as if she was afraid it would escape.

She carefully felt it with her small hands.

After a while, she raised her little head and looked at Gu Chen happily.

'Daddy, the cup is really pretty!'

After saying that, she tilted her little mouth upwards and gave a kiss on Gu Chen's face.

The little girl's kiss was sweet and soft, and being kissed like that by her immediately made his heart overflow with an indescribable feeling of happiness and contentment.

Gu Chen grinned, his face full of enjoyment.

She really is my little cotton-padded jacket, keeping the wind out!

It's as if the sunlight is even warmer.

When the two of them returned, Ji Pianran had just finished shopping and was paying for her purchases.

When she saw the glass water cup in Tangtang's hand, her watery eyes looked over at Gu Chen.

'Glass is fragile.'

Even though Tangtang was only two and a half years old, she was actually very smart.

Hearing this, she immediately knew that her mother didn't want her to use a glass!

She quickly held out her chubby little hand and pointed to the other cup in Gu Chen's hand.

'Mommy, there's one for you too!'

Gu Chen: '????'

The expression on his face instantly petrified.

He bought this for himself!

This thermos is not very good.

How can he give it to his daughter-in-law to use!

This child, he really picked up on the conversation quickly.

Ji Pianran blinked, looked in the direction that Tang Tang was pointing, and sure enough, she saw Gu Chen clutching a black thermos in his right hand.

Her beautiful, moist eyes brightened for a moment, and she looked even more towards Gu Chen's face.

The sunlight cast a faint shadow over her long, thick eyelashes, making them look deep and shimmering.

Simply charming!

Gu Chen instantly lost the courage to say that he bought it for himself.

He stammered and said, 'Not very good, so'

He was going to say, 'Why don't we go to the mall and look around some more?' But before he could finish speaking, he saw Ji Bianyan's small red lips curve into a natural and beautiful arc, revealing eight white, neat teeth.

She smiled!

Gu Chen never expected Ji Bianran to smile!!!

Could it be that she didn't see that this was a man's mug?

Ji Bianran reached out and took the mug from Gu Chen's hand, and looked at it carefully.

'It's very nice, thank you.'

Gu Chen: '!!!'

What's going on?

Does his wife have such strange tastes?

Does she like things that men use?

Ji Bianran tightly gripped the thermos cup that Gu Chen had given her, and a rare smile appeared in the corner of her eyes.

'Thank you very much.'

Unexpectedly, Gu Chen had actually bought himself a cup.

And it was a thermos cup!

She was really happy!

To be honest, she had long wanted a thermos cup.

The other women working with her, like Mrs. Wang, each have their own thermos.

But in order to save money, Ji Pianran has never been willing to buy one.

A thermos costs more than ten yuan, and a better one costs more than twenty yuan, which is really expensive.

With the money left over, she can buy a lot of eggs for Sugar Sugar to eat.

So every day, she has to carry a transparent glass canteen.

The last time she went to work at Auntie Ma's, Ji Pianran ran out of water and so she poured a cup of boiling water from Auntie Ma's kettle.

Unexpectedly, because of the cold weather, the cup cracked with a 'bang' as soon as it was filled with boiling water, and it became two halves.

The water spilled all over the kitchen and went down the stove, almost extinguishing the fire.

Now that I have a thermos, I don't have to use cans and bottles anymore.

To be honest, Ji Pianran has never really liked pink. She always feels that those bright colours like yellow are too playful for a mother and wife, as if they were for a young girl.

In contrast, she prefers the relatively calm and versatile colours like black, white and grey.

Seeing his daughter-in-law's rare happiness, Gu Chen shook his head, unable to laugh or cry.

He frowned and smiled bitterly, 'I think we'd better go to the mall and buy you one with better quality.'

Ji Pianran looked carefully at the cup in her hands and shook her head.

Only then did she look at Gu Chen's face.

She said seriously, 'No need, I really like this thermos.'

She really, really likes it!

Of course, what made her happiest was that Gu Chen had given it to her.

Gu Chen really was very attentive to himself. In the morning, he had only brought a glass, but in the afternoon, he had bought himself a thermos.

Wasn't that his way of caring for himself?

At that moment, Ji Pianran's heart was wrapped in joy and a hint of happiness.
