Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Chapter 372: Falling into a Love Trap

Jiang Taoshi quietly stuck her head out to the doorway, peeking inside.

Sure enough, she saw Ruan Hongzhuang staring at her phone, heaving sighs.

Unable to bear it anymore, she pushed the door open and entered.

"Can you not be like this?" Jiang Taoshi frowned deeply, expressing her dissatisfaction.

"What am I being like?"

While saying this, Ruan Hongzhuang discreetly put away her phone.

"These past few days, you have been glued to your phone, sighing the entire ti, what’s wrong? Can’t live without a man? Is this still the Ruan Hongzhuang I know?" Jiang Taoshi said indignantly.

"Where... No..." Ruan Hongzhuang replied sowhat guiltily.

"Hmph, →_→" Jiang Taoshi said nothing and just folded her arms, looking at her.

Feeling increasingly guilty under her gaze, Ruan Hongzhuang finally said helplessly, "Alright, alright, Si Yuan hasn’t contacted for several days, I’m a bit worried about him."

"Worried about him? What’s there to worry about? With his capabilities, what kind of danger could he possibly encounter?" Jiang Taoshi said, exasperated.

"That’s logical... alright, I’ve indeed beco a bit unlike myself recently."

Ruan Hongzhuang was reflective as well.

"Right, right..."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Taoshi’s face lit up with excitent, as if she had won a battle, beaming with pride.

"But, this is the beauty of love. You wouldn’t understand because you’ve never been in love."

"How can you insult like that?" Jiang Taoshi exclaid angrily.

"I don’t want to deal with you anymore." Then she huffed and ran out.

Ruan Hongzhuang didn’t call after her, instead picked up her phone again to check, only to confirm that she hadn’t received any ssages, feeling a fresh wave of disappointnt.

In the past, she looked down on won who let their emotions rule them, and she never expected that one day she would beco just like them, and even relish it.

She often questioned herself internally.

Ruan Hongzhuang ah Ruan Hongzhuang, you can’t go on like this.

But no sooner had she resolved this, she couldn’t help but start worrying about Shen Siyuan.

"He must have done sothing."

Ruan Hongzhuang thus assured herself with unwavering certainty.

And then she began to reflect again, back and forth, which left her distressed and conflicted, and this was why Jiang Taoshi said she had changed.

Originally decisive and efficient, the strongwoman Ruan Hongzhuang found that in matters of the heart, she was no better than anyone else.

With no desire to work, Ruan Hongzhuang didn’t want to waste ti at the company.

So she shut down her computer, grabbed her backpack, and walked out.

And there she saw Jiang Taoshi, eating sothing in front of the computer screen, giggling stupidly like an idiot.

However, Ruan Hongzhuang showed a look of envy.

Indeed, it’s the fools who are the happiest.

"Oh? You’re not working anymore?"

Noticing Ruan Hongzhuang carrying a bag, Jiang Taoshi was puzzled.

"I’m not in the mood, co on, go shopping with ." Ruan Hongzhuang beckoned.

"Shopping?"

Hearing this, Jiang Taoshi’s eyes brightened, and she beca excited.

"We really haven’t gone shopping for a long ti, I haven’t bought a single new item this autumn."

Jiang Taoshi was very quick to act, she directly threw the half-eaten food into the trash, then shut down the computer, grabbed her bag, without delay.

For ordinary people, shopping ans visiting each store, then trying on different items, and only when satisfied do they make a purchase.

Wealthy people don’t need to try on or try out the items themselves when shopping; they have personal models who try on the clothes for them.

At this mont, the two of them were sitting on a sofa in a luxury goods store, sipping coffee and watching the two models in front of them try on clothes.

These two models, aside from differing in temperant and appearance from Ruan Hongzhuang and Jiang Taoshi, had very similar heights, waist sizes, and shoulder widths to the two won.

To their left and right, each had a professional, exquisitely-faced sales associate squatting next to them, holding a tablet in their hands filled with images of this year’s sumr and autumn season new arrivals.

In addition to clothing, there were also bags, shoes, jewelry, accessories, and all sorts of luxury goods.

As long as the two won showed interest with a slight nod, the sales associates would directly tap to send, and shortly after, the models would co out wearing the items they had shown interest in.

If they were satisfied, the items would be left behind and then delivered to their ho address stored at the store by a dedicated person.

Their so-called shopping was just that simple and unadorned.

Both were regular custors of the store and were very familiar with the process.

However, today there was a slight change.

"Do you have any n’s clothes and shoes?" Ruan Hongzhuang asked.

The sales associate was taken aback, then quickly responded, "Yes, may I ask what age range you’re looking for?"

"For those aged over twenty but under thirty, height one-eighty-five, shoulder width..."

Ruan Hongzhuang proficiently rattled off Shen Siyuan’s height, weight, and other asurents.

The sales associate squatted in front of her, quickly inputted the information, and created a data model. This was likely a consumption target for a long ti to co, so of course, the more detailed, the better.

After entering the information, the sales associate then said, "I’m sorry, Miss Ruan, we don’t currently have a fitting model available, but we’ll arrange for soone suitable. How about for today..."

"As long as the size is right, bring them out for to see," Ruan Hongzhuang said nonchalantly, waving her hand.

Then there was another round of shopping.

When the two returned ho, all the items had already been delivered, and Tang Tang was curiously squatting on one side, rummaging through various shopping bags.

Seeing them return, she imdiately ran over.

"Sis, so many, so many bags no," Tang Tang said, her arms wide open, her face exaggerated.

Ruan Hongzhuang laughed and patted her head, "Yes, lots of bags. These are all our purchases, and there’s a gift for you too."

Tang Tang didn’t listen, so she continued on her own, "Mom moved no, Grandma moved no, and also so uncles I don’t know no..."

The little one was speaking more and more fluently these days, with hardly any stuttering or unclear words, but whether it was because Xiao Yue had taught her or she had learned it herself, she developed a strange verbal tic where she liked to add a "no" particle at the end of sentences.

Compared to normal speech, these were all minor issues, so no one corrected her.

"Did you guys go shopping?"

At this ti, Jiang Yingxue, hearing the noise, also ca over.

"Yes, Mom, I bought you a few things too," Ruan Hongzhuang said.

"Jewelry is okay, but forget about clothes," Jiang Yingxue said.

"Why?" Ruan Hongzhuang asked, feeling dissatisfied.

"Your taste isn’t good," Jiang Yingxue bluntly stated.

"That’s nonsense; I haven’t even complained about your antiquated style..." Ruan Hongzhuang said, greatly dissatisfied.

Taozi giggled on the side, then squatted down to start going through the bags, which the store had labeled clearly, making it easy to recognize.

However, she wasn’t looking for her own items but was checking out the gifts bought for Tang Tang.

A pair of overalls, a small skirt, a pair of fava bean shoes, a gold necklace...

"Ah... ah..."

When Mao Sani saw these, she gesticulated with her hands, at a loss for what to do for a mont.

These clothes and shoes were obviously expensive, not to ntion a gold necklace with intricate interwoven floral patterns; the craftsmanship looked extrely complex. Not accounting for its value as gold itself, the craftsmanship was certainly no less valuable than the gold.

Mao Sani wanted to return it to Ruan Hongzhuang, but it was already placed around Tang Tang’s neck.

The little one seed to really like it, hooking it with her little hand, her eyes crossed as she scrutinized it carefully. With her mouth wide open in a goofy smile, it seed she was contemplating how to bite it.

Then she really did bite it, stuffing it into her mouth...
