After chatting with Chen Xiaoqi for a few more minutes, Li Lili returned to her desk. Once there, she sat there lost in thought, wondering whether she should go to the mall that evening. Or perhaps she should wait until she had a day off. As she pondered this, she decided to ask Chen Ling's opinion first, to see if he wanted to go that night. So, Li Lili took out her phone and sent Chen Ling a WeChat message.

"How about we go to the mall tonight?" Li Lili asked, getting straight to the point.

"Okay," Chen Ling replied immediately after seeing Li Lili's WeChat message.

“If you’re tired and don’t want to come over tonight, that’s fine, I don’t mind.” Li Lili continued sending WeChat messages.

“I want to go, I really want to go. I can shop around and hear what my clients think at the same time. It’s a win-win situation, so why not?” Chen Ling continued to reply.

Li Lili immediately replied, "Okay."

Seeing that Li Lili was no longer replying to his messages, Chen Ling went back to work.

The shopping mall project is now completely finished, and the company is about to face another major bidding process. Let's see what projects we'll focus on next.

Not long after, Chen Ling and Li Lili got off work.

Li Lili said enthusiastically, "We need to take lots of photos later. We didn't take enough last time we went."

After hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling shook his head helplessly. He then said, "Sigh, you women are all the same. I really can't understand you, you photography fanatics."

"How do you know so much about women? How do you know we're photography fanatics?" Li Lili said, unconvinced.

"Me, me, isn't it obvious? We're already in this kind of relationship, how could I not know? You're a devil!" Chen Ling turned to look at Li Lili and said.

“I don’t know if I’m a devil, but I do know that you have a problem with me,” Li Lili said seriously to Chen Ling.

"How could that be? I wouldn't dare! My wife is gentle, considerate, beautiful, and generous. I love her more than anything, how could I possibly have a problem with that?" Chen Ling immediately replied after hearing Li Lili's words. He had thought Li Lili was angry.

"That's more like it. You're quite perceptive," Li Lili said, looking at Chen Ling.

The two continued chatting until they arrived at the mall.

"Chen Ling, Chen Ling! Come quick! Help me take a picture." Li Lili said to Chen Ling from the entrance of the mall.

"Okay." Chen Ling quickly agreed after hearing this.

At the entrance of the mall, there was a huge model of a shopping cart filled with various gifts. Li Lili stood in front of the shopping cart, with the popular building as a backdrop, and the resulting photo was incredibly classy.

"Wow, the photos are really good! Look here. No wonder you designed this building. It's beautiful," Li Lili praised.

“Even if it’s pretty, it’s not as pretty as the person in the photo. Look how beautiful this girl is,” Chen Ling said, pointing to Li Lili in the photo.

Girls usually feel good when someone compliments their looks. Li Lili was no exception.

So Li Lili said to Chen Ling, "Hurry up, hurry up, come over here, I'll take a picture of you too."

After hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling walked over helplessly, though he didn't really want to take pictures.

Chapter 352 Thoughtful and Considerate

Fortunately, the background image here is indeed very beautiful, and the Chen Ling photographed here is exceptionally good-looking.

"It's ready, come and take a look," Li Lili said, beckoning to Chen Ling.

Then Chen Ling immediately ran over and said to Li Lili, "Let's go inside and take a look."

After Chen Ling finished speaking, he took Li Lili's hand and they went inside.

"It's even prettier than when we came last time!" Li Lili exclaimed in surprise as soon as she entered.

"It really is quite good. Let's go. Let's find something to eat first," Chen Ling said with a smile, turning his head.

“Okay, I’m a little hungry too,” Li Lili said with a smile, and then walked away with Chen Ling.

"Let's have shrimp today," Li Lili said to Chen Ling as she stopped in front of the "Mr. Shrimp" hot pot restaurant.

"Okay, eat whatever you want," Chen Ling said, looking at Li Lili with doting eyes.

Upon hearing this, Li Lili excitedly pulled Chen Ling inside, her face beaming with satisfaction, like a child. Once inside, Li Lili and Chen Ling immediately ordered some of Li Lili's favorite dishes.

The shrimp arrived shortly afterward.

"Wow, it smells so good!" Li Lili exclaimed.

Then Chen Ling said indulgently, "Then you should eat some while it's hot."

At this moment, Li Lili stared intently at Chen Ling beside her, and then smiled sweetly.

At this moment, Chen Ling was focused on peeling shrimp for Li Lili.

Chen Ling quickly peeled a shrimp in his hand and placed it directly on Li Lili's plate. Then he said gently to Li Lili, "Eat quickly, I'll peel a few more for you."

"You don't have to just peel them for me. You haven't eaten yet either. You can eat some too. I can peel them myself. It's okay," Li Lili said to Chen Ling with satisfaction.

"No need, I'll take care of peeling, you just eat it," Chen Ling said to Li Lili affectionately.

"You're going to spoil me if you keep acting like this," Li Lili said with a smile.

"Don't worry about it breaking, I'll keep it," Chen Ling said indulgently.

Then they saw Chen Ling peel a shrimp, and Li Lili would eat one.

"Okay, okay, I'm full. Don't peel any more for me, you should eat too," Li Lili said, stopping Chen Ling from putting more shrimp on his plate.

After hearing Li Lili's words, Chen Ling looked at her carefully before putting the shrimp in his mouth again. Soon, the shrimp in the pot were finished, and Chen Ling began to cook the other dishes.

"Chen Ling, why are you so good to me?" Li Lili asked Chen Ling with longing eyes.

"You're my wife, if I don't treat you well, who else should I treat well?" Chen Ling said with a silly grin.

"Then why do you like me?" Li Lili continued to press.

"Uh, what reason do I need to like you?" Chen Ling said helplessly.

"I feel so lucky to have such a gentle and considerate husband like you," Li Lili said earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling quickly shook his head and said, "You're wrong. I only learned to be gentle and considerate because of you." Chen Ling's words were not an exaggeration at all. Before meeting Li Lili, he was indeed not the person he is now.

However, Li Lili immediately smiled after hearing Chen Ling's words. She knew in her heart that Chen Ling was good to her.

Soon, Chen Ling and Li Lili finished their meal and prepared to go shopping.

"I'm not buying anything today, I just wanted to look around the mall," Li Lili said to Chen Ling after they came out.

"Huh? Why are you talking about this? Just buy it if you want," Chen Ling said, confused. It turned out that Li Lili had bought a lot of things with Chen Mengyao last time but had neglected Chen Ling, so she wasn't planning to buy anything this time.

"Buy it if you want, it's fine," Chen Ling said again when he saw that Li Lili didn't speak.

"We're just here to take a look. I just feel like I have nothing to do at home so early, so it's nice to come over and have some fun. We don't need to buy anything," Li Lili said casually.

After hearing this, Chen Ling didn't say anything. After a while, he said again, "If you see something you like, just tell me and I'll buy it for you." After saying that, Chen Ling started looking at the shops around him.

However, Li Lili's gaze remained fixed on Chen Ling's face. She looked up at Chen Ling's face, then tightly grasped his hand.

Looking at Chen Ling, Li Lili's girlish heart almost jumped out of her chest. She was becoming more and more inseparable from Chen Ling.

“Chen Ling,” Li Lili said, looking at Chen Ling.

"Hmm?" Chen Ling, who was standing to the side, was quite surprised when he heard Li Lili calling him. He wondered what was wrong with Li Lili and what she wanted to say.

"I feel like I can't live without you anymore," Li Lili said naively.

"Wouldn't that be even better? I just want to spoil you so much that you can't live without me," Chen Ling said smugly. Li Lili chuckled when she heard this, and then the two of them happily continued walking forward.

"How about that one?" Chen Ling asked Li Lili, pointing to a dress in the women's clothing store.

"Um, I think it's alright," Li Lili stammered.

"Then what are you waiting for? Go try it on and see if it suits you," Chen Ling said, urging Li Lili on.

“But I said I wouldn’t buy anything,” Li Lili said hesitantly. “Then you don’t want it anymore?” Chen Ling tempted Li Lili.

"Yes," Li Lili said softly, then lowered her head again.

"That's good, go ahead, I was just saying I found something I liked and wanted to give it to you," Chen Ling said quickly.

Only then did Li Lili take the clothes and go to the fitting room. Actually, at this moment, Li Lili's desire to shop had already been ignited, but she had just been too embarrassed to say it.

A short while later, Li Lili came out of the fitting room.

"Beautiful. Beautiful," Chen Ling exclaimed.

"Then let's buy it," Li Lili said to Chen Ling, who was quite shrewd.

"Silly girl." Chen Ling said with a smile after hearing this, and then affectionately pinched Li Lili's nose.

"No need to change, just wear this one," Chen Ling said with a smile.

He then took out his wallet from his pocket and handed one of the cards to the clerk.

Chapter 353 Eating Without Gaining Weight

Chen Ling thought Li Lili looked really good in the dress, so he told her she didn't need to change. But Li Lili felt a little awkward wearing it directly.

"Wait here for me, I'll go change my clothes back," Li Lili said to Chen Ling.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ling didn't ask any further questions, simply nodding. Li Lili then immediately ran to the fitting room. Quickly, she changed and came out, immediately taking Chen Ling's arm as they walked away.

"To thank you for this dress, let me pick out a gift for you," Li Lili said to Chen Ling.

"I don't want to. Judging from your tone, you're asking me to make a trade. Humph," Chen Ling said, pouting.

"Of course not! Do we need to exchange things between us? You're overthinking it. We're at the mall, right? I was thinking of buying you a gift, but if you don't want to, fine. I'll go check on Ninglu and my mom." Li Lili began.

"Okay then. I'll help you take a look," Chen Ling said with a grin.

Then Li Lili looked at him and smiled helplessly. She thought to herself that Chen Ling was truly someone she couldn't do anything about. So Li Lili took Chen Ling to buy some new clothes for Shen Ninglu and her mother.

"Is Chenling hotpot digesting too quickly? I'm hungry again." As they walked, Li Lili suddenly said.

"Haha, it's good to be able to eat! Being able to eat is a blessing. Come on, if you're hungry, let's go get something else to eat," Chen Ling said happily.

Afterwards, Chen Ling took Li Lili to the basement level to enjoy some food.

"What do you want to eat?" Chen Ling asked Li Lili.

"Cake," Li Lili said happily.

Next, Chen Ling took Li Lili to a bakery. The two of them ordered a lot of desserts.

"Ningxue, how come you love to eat so much but never gain weight?" Chen Ling asked Li Lili in confusion.

"Can I take that as you complaining that I eat too much?" Li Lili asked Chen Ling with a fierce look.
