She would feel a deep sense of guilt every time she spent money. Even Gu Chengze's generosity did nothing to suppress the guilt in her heart.
"Alright, since you're on a holiday, don't think about unhappy things," Gu Chengze coaxed her.
Bai Sheng felt a little regretful. "Did my work troubles affect your mood?"
"No." Gu Chengze said as he tucked her messy hair behind her ear, "As long as… you're happy!"
After all, this trip was for her, and the both of them!
Bai Sheng broke into a smile. "Uh huh."
At night, Gu Chengze brought Bai Sheng to Causeway Bay.
The first time she had heard of "Causeway Bay" was in the form of the name of a KTV lounge.
Before she came to Hong Kong, she did not know that Causeway Bay was one of the most famous landmark centers of Hong Kong.
There were many KTV chains in Beijing, and one of the more famous ones was Causeway Bay KTV.
"What sort of place is Causeway Bay?" On the way, when she found out that Gu Chengze was taking her to Causeway Bay, she became curious. "Just like… Wangfujing Street in the capital city?"
Gu Chengze said, "In any case, it's a pity to e to Hong Kong without shopping."
"If it's a department store, there's one in Beijing."
"That's different!"
Causeway Bay is a major mercial and recreational venue in Hong Kong.
There are several large department stores and shopping malls in the area, including Sogo, Times Square, Lee Theatre Plaza and the World Trade Center. The Causeway Bay shopping district is also the most expensive area in the world for rent.
The Gu family owned a mercial building in Causeway Bay. As an estimate, the annual rent alone could cost more than 100 billion yuan. It was hefty.
Bai Sheng naturally tried to imagine what kind of place Causeway Bay was. She initially thought that department stores were all the same. However, when they arrived at their destination, she was greeted by colorful neon lights and a bustling crowd. The billboard and signs vied for attention and covered every bit of space in the visual field.
Actually, Causeway Bay covered just a small area, but it was especially prosperous. Bai Sheng was dazzled by the sight of it.
How prosperous!
Moreover, although there were many people, it seemed rather orderly.
Gu Chengze held her hand as they walked into the shopping mall. This department store was known as the "spending vault". As long as one stepped into this place, there would always be countless ways to spend and squander.
This mall was Times Square. The lights were especially dazzling and bright amidst the crowd, reminding one of glittering jewelry.
Bai Sheng felt that her eyes stinging.
Gu Chengze first took her into the Gucci boutique. The moment she entered, she was immediately attracted by the few bags displayed in the window!
Gucci had counters in many cities, but some styles available in the capital city and might not be available in the Hong Kong boutiques.
Similarly, items available in Hong Kong may not be available in the capital city.
Bai Sheng was immediately attracted by the two limited edition handbags displayed in the window!
She had never been obsessed with handbags in the past. However, after Gu Chengze had taken her to the boutique a few times, it was as if he had opened the door to a whole new world. The bags he bought for her were exquisite and beautiful. They were like treasures to her. She couldn't even bear to use them, fearful that she would damage them, so she carefully stowed them away.
Gu Chengze said half-jokingly, "If you can't bear to carry those bags, it only means that you don't have enough bags."
