In the end, at Lu Fan's insistence, Jiang Silu finally chose a pair of knee-high boots worth 6,888.
Even though Lu Fan thought the 48,888 pair of boots looked better and more luxurious, she still shook her head, insisting on the cheapest pair.

He didn't push it, thinking he could gradually help Jiang Silu change her mindset in the future.
On the way back, Jiang Silu carefully protected the two shopping bags, afraid of even getting the bags themselves dirty.

Seeing how she treasured them, Lu Fan's heart ached with a pang of guilt.
'If only I had known about the three of them—mother and daughters—sooner.'
