"Did you buy it at the Wanhua Counter on the first floor?"
Tang Xiaowan, though surprised, did not respond, but the curly-haired woman started talking to herself.
"Their jewelry all have a peony mark, very exquisite, but pity, it's so expensive. They only sell limited editions, one design each. A while ago, I took a fancy to a bracelet similar to yours, but it had just a tiny ruby on it. Sigh, I'm still saving up for it."
"Your boyfriend gave you that one, right?"
Tang Xiaowan glanced at the curly-haired woman with a mix of disgust and speechlessness.
Is this woman a chatterbox incarnate?
Of course she knew about the peony mark on her bracelet, she just didn't deign to reply.
Li Zishen gave it to her?
What a joke, how could it possibly be from him?
Wait, why am I even equating him with the term 'boyfriend'?
He's nothing but a despicable, shaless scoundrel!
The curly-haired woman seed not to notice the girl's displeasure and continued to ask, "The gentleman outside, who is he to you, your boyfriend? He looks very tall and handso!"
She said that with a flirtatious look in her eyes.
"It's none of your damn business!"
With one sentence, Tang Xiaowan left the curly-haired woman speechless.
However, she quickly adjusted her embarrassed deanor and continued to smile while tidying her hair.
Seeing Tang Xiaowan looking around, probably for blotting paper, she pointed to her right: "First ti here? Let tell you, the third floor is all high-end won's fashion, the real top brands, although the prices are a bit steep."
"How steep?" Tang Xiaowan's lips curled slightly.
"Just any skirt costs over a thousand, and the better ones, nearly ten thousand. Custom-made would probably be even more expensive!"
"Oh, ten thousand."
Tang Xiaowan's disdainful look didn't faze the curly-haired woman, who nonchalantly opened her purse and took out a lipstick.
Just as she was about to touch up her makeup, she noticed the girl was about to leave and quickly followed her.
Tang Xiaowan flashed a devilish smile and suddenly turned around.
The curly-haired woman tripped.
Because it all happened so suddenly, her purse had been left open, and now its contents were scattered on the ground due to the fall.
Tang Xiaowan picked up a recording pen and said in a low voice, "Rember to watch where you're going next ti. It's dangerous!"
Curly-haired woman: "..."
Tang Xiaowan playfully shrugged her shoulders, and her bad mood suddenly improved quite a bit.
Not wanting to entangle with the curly-haired woman any longer, she walked straight outside, almost bumping into Li Zishen who had arrived at the sound.
With a deft side-step, she smoothly avoided him, a move so adept it was admirable.
The curly-haired woman frowned tightly.
But Li Zishen seed not surprised at all.
He looked sharply at the curly-haired woman, then softened his expression, and gently said to Tang Xiaowan, "Let's go, we'll take a look upstairs."
This ti, Tang Xiaowan actively reached out her hand to Li Zishen, "What's the rush? I am so thirsty right now, I want so ice cream."
She said loudly, as if afraid others might not hear.
Li Zishen gladly took Tang Xiaowan's delicate hand, "Alright, let's head to the fifth floor."
"Do they have matcha flavor?"
"Yes."
"Forget it, I still prefer chocolate, might be sweeter."
"Then, let's go for a mix of both."
"You're so stingy! Why not say we'll get two, do we not have enough money with us?"
Tang Xiaowan's voice was coquettish, sweet and sticky.
"Okay, two it is."
"Great, then you must eat too."
Li Zishen swallowed hard, "Okay."
At this mont, the curly-haired woman still at the vanity area, after hearing this conversation, subtly smirked.
She did not rush to pick up her scattered items; instead, she took out her phone and dialed a number saved as 'God of Wealth.'
```
"This is a tricky job, you've got to pay double."
The phone transmitted the hearty laughter of a middle-aged man, "Money is not a problem, but it has to be authentic, otherwise..."
"Don't worry, no problem."
The curly-haired woman glanced back at her black leather purse and smiled smugly.
Fifth floor beverage area, small round table by the window.
Li Zishen and Tang Xiaowan were eating and chatting, completely oblivious to the fact that, not far away, a skinny man with glasses was using his phone to take pictures of them.
"Daddy, what are you doing?"
A little girl with a bun on her head looked up with a barely awake expression.
"Oh, nothing, just checking the quality of the new phone Daddy bought?"
"Mom said it's the latest model."
The man with glasses bent down and patted his daughter's head, "Yes, Mom's not wrong!"
"Daddy, can we go watch a movie now?"
"Our YY is so good, of course, we can, let's go, let's go watch a movie!"
The man with glasses picked up the little girl, walking triumphantly toward the elevator.
Single table next to the cash register.
Chen Xin looked at Li Zishen, three ters away, then at the chocolate ice cream in front of him, truly at a loss for how to begin.
He had never tasted the stuff before.
In Chen Xin's mind, ice cream was exclusively a little girl's snack; for a grown man to eat it was a matter of great embarrassnt.
However, at this mont, the usually stern-faced Li Zishen was eating it too.
Whether he would have a stomachache tonight, Chen Xin didn't know, but what he could be sure of was that Tang Xiaowan had already beco his compass; whatever she said went.
Thinking this, the chocolate quietly slipped into Chen Xin's mouth.
Not bad, just a bit too sweet.
Looking back, he decided to try the green one next, wondering how it tasted?
Hmm, probably also good!
Five minutes later, Chen Xin had finally devoured his extra-large cup of ice cream.
He glanced at Li Zishen's matcha cup.
"I'll get a small one next ti."
Suddenly, his phone rang. After answering, Chen Xin walked over to Li Zishen with furrowed brows.
anwhile, a webpage opened.
"Brother Shen, we've been secretly photographed."
Chen Xin placed his phone on the small round table, and a news story shot up to the top of the trending searches.
[Shocking! Renowned businessman cradle-snatching! It is reported that the woman not only eats specially supplied food for all als but also has a fiery temper, spending money like water!]
[The person in question responds, "None of your damn business!"]
The picture ca with a considerate caption.
Photo 1: The girl drags the man onto the elevator.
Photo 2: The girl whispers sweet nothings into his ear.
Photo 3: The girl closes her eyes, puckering up, anticipating a kiss from the man.
However, the photos of Li Zishen were all of his back, whereas Tang Xiaowan was captured clearly, even the ice cream on the corner of her mouth was visible.
The comnts below were countless and scathing.
—I don't understand the world of the rich, but money-loving won indeed seem to be everywhere; her face must be 80% surgical, right?
—By the day, month, or year?
—Are all rich people this low on IQ? This woman at one glance is a super-sized green tea b****, wonder how much money she's swindled from others.
—Wearing little floral dresses too, pretending to be pure!
Li Zishen just casually glanced at it, and comnted lightly, "That was pretty fast."
All of this was within his expectations.
But the usually composed Chen Xin seed sowhat agitated this ti, speaking softly, "Brother Shen, it's only been a few minutes, and the clicks have already surpassed a million; they must have bought the top spot. Should we..."
"No need to bother, just let it be."
