Chapter 332: Chapter 332: Watching the Excitement

Lin Chuxia just wanted to tease him and certainly didn’t want to roll around again.

She quickly begged for mercy, "I’m satisfied, very satisfied, no need to be any more satisfied, hahaha... Qin Yang, don’t move around, I’m just teasing you, I’m talking about birthday gifts... What birthday gift do you want..."

Qin Yang then remembered that his birthday was indeed approaching.

He took the opportunity to pull her up and help her get dressed, "Anything is fine, I’ll like whatever you give me."

"Then I’ll give you a camera, since you should be able to use it for work."

However, Qin Yang was looking at her delicate features and what he really wanted was to capture this beautiful scene, so he nodded and agreed, "Good."

There wasn’t much time left in the afternoon, so the two went straight to the Department Store.

In the Department Store, there was only one Panasonic color television, costing 2,300 yuan.

Although Lin Chuxia scorned the old-fashioned CRT TVs, she still bought one.

She noticed Qin Yang was quite interested in it, and besides, he would probably like to watch the daily news broadcast.

Compared to the color TV, Lin Chuxia preferred tape recorders; in the late ’80s and ’90s, it was the era of scrimping and saving, with many classic old songs enduring over time.

A double-cassette deck with four speakers, plus picking out a few cassettes of her own liking, would be nice for leisure time.

After selecting the items, they hired a handcart at the entrance to haul them back.

The Department Store wasn’t far from their residential compound, and they had come out on bicycles in the afternoon.

After loading the goods, Qin Yang decided to walk with the handcart driver, while Lin Chuxia went to the bicycle parking area to fetch their bicycles.

Though there weren’t many bicycles there at the moment and parking spaces were easy to find, if you didn’t want to find your bicycle gone after shopping, it was safer to store it away.

Five cents for one bicycle; the parking attendant (male or female) would draw a circle with a rope and assign a small paper tag to each bike.

The tag was marked with a number, and the attendant would write the same number on the bicycle seat or mudguard with white chalk when handing over the tag.

After parking the bicycle and receiving the paper tag, you could leave.

When it was time to retrieve the bicycle, you’d find the bike that matched the number on your tag, pay the fee, return the paper tag, and you could leave.

Although there were significant drawbacks to this system, it greatly reduced the chances of bicycle theft.

However, looking at the job the parking attendant was doing, ordinary people couldn’t handle it; it was those with some connections who could draw lines and mark their territory outside the store.

Lin Chuxia was walking towards the parking area while taking out the paper tag when suddenly someone rushed past, bumping into her elbow, and the tag she just took out fell to the ground.

Lin Chuxia slightly frowned, thinking she had encountered a pickpocket. She reached for her wallet and saw the person had already bypassed her and was chasing after a woman holding a child in the distance.

The wallet was still there, Lin Chuxia breathed a sigh of relief, just as she was about to bend down to pick up the tag, another person ran past in front of her.

Their huge foot stepped right on top of the paper tag, leaving behind a big footprint and a tag covered with dust.
