Married at First Sight Chapter 4506

Instead of giving him a new set of clothes, she had him carry her shopping bags, claiming it was a chance for him to demonstrate his gentlemanly manners.

“Ruoruo, we’ve been walking around for quite a while and we’re all tired. Let’s call it a night. When you’re free another day, I’ll treat you to a meal, and we can take our time strolling—just the two of us.”

No more babysitting or entertaining his brother-in-law.

Lan Ruoruo glanced at the sleeping Beibei and noticed Zhan Muchen yawning repeatedly. Realizing the children were exhausted, she said, “Alright, let’s stop shopping for today. I’ll call Sister Tong when I’m free another time.”

“There’s no need for Sister Tong to treat us. It’s her first time visiting Yangcheng—you should let me host and take her out for a proper meal.”

She gently touched Beibei’s little face. “Beibei looks tired.”

“We flew for several hours today and didn’t rest after arriving. Both kids must be worn out.”

Lan Ruoruo smiled to show she understood.

Their cars were parked at the Yangcheng Hotel, so they hailed two taxis and headed back.

Zhan Wei carried the shopping bags Lan Ruoruo had bought and prepared to load them into her car.

“Give them to me.”

Lan Ruoruo took the elegant bags from him, then checked each one carefully.

Zhan Wei couldn’t help saying, “Relax, you got everything you bought. I didn’t take anything. If something’s missing, I’ll compensate you.”

He had kindly carried her things the whole evening, yet she didn’t even thank him. Now she was inspecting the bags like she thought he’d stolen something.

He had teased her deliberately tonight—maybe it was just a habit. Zhan Wei felt uneasy if he didn’t trade a few sharp words with her whenever they met.

He’d probably be tossing and turning all night if he didn’t say at least one mean thing to her.
But he wasn’t the kind of person who liked taking advantage of others. Deep down, he hoped Lan Ruoruo would gift him a new set of clothes, but he would never steal them.

Are you kidding? He was the seventh young master of the Zhan family.

His personal wealth amounted to tens of billions—not as impressive as his elder brothers’ hundreds of billions, but still far beyond the reach of many CEOs.

How could someone like him, who lacked nothing financially, stoop to stealing the new clothes Lan Ruoruo bought for her eldest brother?

Even though he and Lan Dongxiao were similar in height and build, they weren’t identical. Their clothes wouldn’t fit the same.

Lan Ruoruo glanced up and glared at him without a word, continuing to check every bag.

Finally, she picked out a white shopping bag and handed it to Zhan Wei.

He instinctively took the bag and asked, “Lan Ruoruo, what do you mean by this?”

Lan Ruoruo didn’t answer right away. She loaded the other bags into the car, got in, closed the door, fastened her seatbelt, and just before driving off, she said, “That one’s for you. Consider it your service fee for assisting me tonight.”

Zhan Wei quickly opened the bag, peeked inside, and looked up at her—but she had already driven off.

If she’d told him earlier that she was giving him a new set of clothes as a reward, he would’ve acted like a proper gentleman. But she refused to say anything.

In the end, he failed to maintain his composure or good manners.

How frustrating.

Zhan Wei turned and walked toward his car, carrying the elegant shopping bag.

Serenity was already seated inside, holding her daughter. Zhan Muchen, as soon as he got in, leaned back in his seat and instantly fell asleep.

He was clearly exhausted.
