BXBX NOVEL Chapter 422 buying souvenirs
Shen Ji Yun stopped walking temporarily upon hearing his uncle’s comment. But it was only for a moment and he continued walking. "I’m more than fond of him."
This time, it was Shen Yi Mu’s turn to stop before continuing. "I think the both of us need to have a serious talk. Then maybe you can tell me exactly just how ’fond’ you are of Xiao Yan."
Shen Ji Yun quickly understood the underlying meaning beneath his uncle’s words. "Let’s do that."
"There’s the souvenir shop!"
Luo Yan’s voice ended the conversation between uncle and nephew. And they followed the Luo family towards the souvenir shop located in the panda base.
The time in which Luo Wei Tian reserved the base was not yet over. So, they were the only visitors inside. The sales people inside seemed to know that they reserved the base for an hour and a half because they’re attitude towards them was more respectful.
Luo Yan looked around the souvenir shop. There were all kinds of panda inspired products. Making his eyes brightened. There’s a key holder, a cellphone case, notebooks and pens, umbrellas, clothes like shirts and jackets, accessories, and many more others. But the most important of all, they had stuffed toys!
He went straight to the stuffed toy section and hugged one that was almost as big as a real panda. It was soft and fluffy. As if he was hugging a huge pillow or something. Ever since he had that big teddy bear that Luo Jin gave him, he kind of developed a habit of hugging a stuffed toy while sleeping. This big panda here would surely be a nice addition to his teddy bear.
"Dad, can you buy this one for me?" he asked his father, his big peach blossom eyes not letting anyone to refuse him.
A beautiful boy hugging a stuff panda that was almost as big as him, the visual impact was simply incredible. Everyone was once again hit by his cuteness. Even the sales people in the shop had smiles on their faces while looking at him.
"Of course," Luo Wei Tian quickly said before turning to a sales lady. "Wrap this one, please."
"Please, just wait a moment, sir," replied the sales lady before asking another male staff to take the big stuffed panda.
Luo Yan hugged his father. "Thanks, Dad!"
Luo Wei Tian smiled and stroke Xiao Yan’s head gently. "Anything for my Xiao Yan."
Seeing this, Shen Ji Yun also wanted to buy Luo Yan a stuff toy. But then he thought, any stuffed toy that he could buy here would certainly pale in comparison to the big stuffed panda. So, he also turned around the shop and looked for a suitable item that he could give to his rabbit.
Luo Yan picked another stuffed panda. But this time, it was a normal size one. He planned to give it to Bai Ye. His initial plan was to send it via express. But since Shen Ji Yun was here, maybe he could just ask him to deliver it. Then he changed his mind. Because he realized just how much hassle it would be for the other. Although if he asked, Shen Ji Yun would probably agree without hesitation.
He decided to temporary put that off and looked for other souvenir items that he could give to Bai Ze, Su Yuqi, and Yu Jiao.
He saw a white bull cap with small panda head illustration and he thought of Su Yuqi. He remembered how cool she looked in real life. Totally the opposite of her game avatar. She certainly looked the type who would wear a bull cap on multiple occasions. He went and picked the cap. The panda illustration was barely noticeable. Su Yuqi would probably not mind wearing this.
Then he picked a shirt next with an illustration of a panda eating a bamboo. The style of the drawing was like traditional Chinese painting. Making the shirt have its own unique style. So, one wouldn’t be called unfashionable even if they wore it. He chose a size that would fit his cousin, Bai Ze.
Then he looked at the handicraft section.
The last time they went to B City, Luo Yan bought Yu Jiao a memo pad and a mechanical pen. Since Yu Jiao loved to draw, he thought of buying her something that she could use. He looked carefully and finally chose a 24-pieces colored pencil. Each one of the colored pencils had a carved panda on it. The pandas on each pencil were doing different things.
"Is Xiao Yan buying those? Then, let one of the staff here carry those for you. Dad will pay for those together with your stuff panda," Luo Wei Tian said after seeing that his son probably had finished buying.
"No, Dad. I’m going to pay for them," Luo Yan said. The pocket money his father gave him everyday was too much. Since, he doesn’t really spend so much money, he already had a small savings. "It’s for Brother Ze, Xiao Ye, Sister Yuqi, and Jiao Jiao. So, it’s just right for me to buy it myself."
Luo Wei Tian nodded. Even though he’s not familiar with ’Yuqi’ or ’Jiao Jiao’, they’re probably Xiao Yan’s friends.
When Luo Ren and Luo Jin heard what their brother said, the two almost had the same thoughts in their mind;
[Jiao Jiao... should I also buy one for her?] – Luo Ren.
[Why didn’t I think of buying something for Su Yuqi?] – Luo Jin.
So, at the end, it was not only Shen Ji Yun who was looking for a ’gift’. Luo Ren and Luo Jin also ended up looking for one.
