"You have money, don't you? With the money that Auntie gave us and that I won from Grandpa, we have more than enough."
"Why did you take my money into account? I didn't say I was going to buy Handsome Su a belt." Little Bean's eyes widened, obviously unwilling to share her wallet.
"What do you plan on buying him then? Are you going to see him empty-handed? Did you forget that he treats us like his own daughters?"
"Of course I didn't, you don't have to remind me how good Handsome Su is to us, " Little Bean argued.
"So what do you plan on buying him?" Pudding demanded.
"Um, I don't know yet." Little Bean liked putting things off.
"Then shut it and lend me some money, I'll pay you back when we get home. I'll sell some of my stocks, " Pudding ordered.
In the end, Little Bean pouted, and although she was extremely unwilling, she still gave her money to Pudding."I don't want you to pay me back, you have to tell Handsome Su that both of us bought this for him, alright?"
"Sure, " Pudding agreed immediately.
Then, the twins paid more than 5, 000 dollars at the cash register, shocking the store clerk speechless.
They spent more than 30, 000 yuan, just to buy Handsome Su this pretty present.
The truth was, Pudding had been thinking about what to buy Su Yu as soon as they arrived. After all, they were in the States, and she wanted to surprise him with something.
Plus, her mommy mentioned that they were only going to be here for two weeks. After a quick calculation, Pudding realized that they were heading home soon, and therefore decided to sneak out to buy Su Yu something.
"Don't tell Handsome Su about the present when we video chat him, do you hear me?" Pudding reminded Little Bean, who nodded."I got it."
When the twins left the mansion, they hailed a taxi and asked to go to the downtown shopping area. Therefore, they took a taxi home as well; communication was simple, since they spoke perfect English.
Moreover, Grandpa Qin lived in a well-known popular neighborhood, so it was quite safe.
The twins had now disappeared for more than 4 hours.
They were still searching up and down the mansion, while the LA police discreetly searched the crowd downtown.
Just then, the twins came home...
"Miss, Sir, the children are home, " the security guard by the gates said.
"What? They're home? Where are they?" Qin Chu's uncle was so excited that he almost got a heart attack.
"They just came in, you'll see them soon."
After less than a minute, the security guard escorted the twins into the mansion. Upon seeing them, Qin Ning immediately rushed up and hugged them as hard as she could as tears streamed uncontrollably down her face.
"Auntie Qin, are you okay?" Little Bean and Pudding didn't expect such a reaction from their family.
"Where did you guys go, we were so worried!" Uncle Qin finally let out a sigh of relief; if the twins didn't come home by tonight, he might have gone crazy. Most importantly, Qin Chu and Huo Mian were landing in LA at 8 PM. If they came home to a mansion without children, they might go crazy. What was he and Qin Ning supposed to say then? They might burn in hell!
"We just went shopping..." Little Bean said, feeling a little guilty.
"Why didn't you tell me, I could've brought you!" Qin Ning exclaimed in exasperation.
"We wanted to go out ourselves, we're always followed by people in China because Mommy says there are bad people out there... but this is America, and the opportunity was rare, " Pudding explained.
"Why didn't you bring your cellphones?"
"They ran out of battery."
"Qin Zhaozhao, Qin Mumu, you two went too far today. When your parents come back tonight, I'm going to tell them what you did, " Qin Ning said as she continued weeping. Thank goodness the twins were home safe, or else she might've run into a wall.
Upon hearing that Qin Ning was going to tell on them, the twins' expressions changed drastically.
