Chapter 1642: Chapter 1643: The person helping her is called Rong Yan
“Later, I saw your interview and heard you liked this brand’s jewelry, so I bought you a bracelet.”
“Things at this store are really expensive. I originally wanted to buy you a complete set for your wedding, but I could only afford this one piece.”
Her eyes had a flicker of light, her lips moving awkwardly and timidly, “It’s okay, wear this for now. I’ll save up and eventually buy you a full set.”
Chu Xi opened the bag, casually rummaging through the bracelet inlaid with tiny diamonds, disdainful yet restrained, “No need. Keep your money for yourself. I’m the brand ambassador for this company. They send a new set every year.”
The style she chose was from two years ago and one of the affordable lines aid at the petite bourgeoisie. This bracelet probably cost eighty thousand. For ordinary people, it’s a significant expense, but for her, eighty thousand is like eight cents.
This style she wouldn’t possibly wear out, it would just sit in her drawer collecting dust, taking up space.
No different from a chicken rib.
“Don’t buy these things again. I don’t need them. Keep your money for yourself. I don’t need you to spend money on . Just rember the things you promised and don’t ss them up.”
Chu Xi’s expression was cold. She said this for her own sake, but to the middle-aged mother who loved her daughter, it sounded like concern, and she nodded gratefully, “I know you don’t need it, but I just wanted to buy you sothing. I’m getting old, can’t spend the money anyway, might as well buy you things you like.”
“…Suit yourself!”
She didn’t want to stand here talking to a cleaning lady for too long; if soone saw her, it would cause trouble.
The middle-aged woman kept chattering about things happening around her, happily trying to share all her joy from the past years, never ntioning how hard she had worked over those years, how many als of cold rice and instant noodles she had eaten to buy that bracelet Chu Xi didn’t care for…
Chu Xi forced herself to listen for a few minutes and couldn’t hold back anymore, interrupting her, “Mom, has anyone talked to you here?”
They were, after all, blood-related mother and daughter. Even though this woman didn’t fare well over the years, her face lined with age, her features still sowhat resembled hers, and she was afraid of being recognized.
“No.”
The middle-aged woman thought for a mont, hesitated, and said, “But there was soone who helped .”
“When I was looking for you inside, I accidentally bumped into soone, and the drink in her hand spilled, dirtying her dress. She asked for compensation. That dress looked really expensive, and I… I couldn’t afford it. Just when I didn’t know what to do, a girl stepped in to help .”
“Who?”
Chu Xi squinted her eyes, a bit displeased.
It wasn’t that she felt sorry for her mother being bullied; she was mainly annoyed that soone dared to cause trouble in her domain.
The middle-aged woman thought she was asking for the na of her helper, lowered her head, thought for a while, and answered, “It seed… I heard so young girls calling her Rong Yan.”
“This girl was so nice, helped even without knowing , and didn’t tell the manager or make pay compensation for the girl’s dress. She was truly a kind person, also very beautiful…”
The more she praised, the more Chu Xi felt like soone was piercing her in the heart.
“Enough.”
The middle-aged woman was puzzled, “Xi, what’s wrong? Why are you looking so unwell, are you feeling uncomfortable sowhere?”
