Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Liu Jinglang wasn’t only generous, he was also very good in bed, so she was reluctant to leave him. She hated pleasing rich, old men who were mean and bad in bed, and she had to pretend to enjoy having sex with them.
…
“What happened?” Xu Qinyin asked when they had walked away.
“Just a friend of my friend. I met him a few times, but we aren’t familiar. He’s a terrible man, so I don’t want to talk to him,” said Zi Beiying. Xu Qinyin wasn’t born yesterday, so Zi Beiying couldn’t fool her by saying that nothing had happened.
“Oh, I see.” Xu Qinyin accepted her explanation.
They walked around until it was time for lunch. After having lunch, they continued to shop.
All women like shopping. Whether they lacked clothes or not, they always needed more. After shopping for hours, all of them bought some clothes, shoes, or jewelry.
Although Gu Ning had her own garment shop, it didn’t mean she had to wear Gufan all the time. She would get bored if she wore the same brand for a long time.
As for jewelry, Gu Ning wasn’t very interested in it. She had a whole set of jade jewelry made from the King’s Green, but she only wore the necklace.
Leng Shaoting also sent her a lot of jewelry, but she felt it wasn’t convenient to wear bracelets. After all, she often fought with other people, and the bracelets could be easily broken. Therefore, Gu Ning put them in her telepathic eye space, and would wear them when it was necessary.
Whenever they walked around in a shopping mall, they often ran into familiar faces. Zi Beiying met someone she knew earlier, and now Xu Qinyin saw some acquaintances.
In a luxury jewelry store, they met a mother and a daughter. Because the woman took very good care of her skin, she looked much younger than her age. Her daughter was at the same age as Xu Qinyin.
“Oh, hi, Qinyin, what a coincidence! I didn’t expect to see you here.” The woman greeted Xu Qinyin with a broad smile once she saw her, then she turned to look at Gu Ning and Zi Beiying. She was amazed by the two beautiful girls.
Although she had seen many pretty girls before, Gu Ning and Zi Beiying were prettier than any of the girls she had ever met, so she was surprised by their astounding beauty.
However, when the woman’s daughter saw Zi Beiying and Gu Ning, she looked jealous.
She was beautiful too, but her appearance showed what kind of person she was and she looked a little mean. Besides, the jealousy in her eyes proved that she wasn’t a kind and friendly person.
Nice people wouldn’t show obvious jealousy just because other people were better than them. Only mean people hated being overshadowed.
“Hi, Qinyin!” The young girl greeted Xu Qinyin. Her voice was very gentle, but sounded insincere.
“Hi, Mrs. Yao, Liwei!” Xu Qinyin politely greeted them.
The Yao family and Xu Qinyin’s family were familiar, so they weren’t strangers.
“How are your mother and aunt doing recently?” asked Mrs. Yao.
“They are very well,” said Xu Qinyin.
“Your cousin, Jinchen, is still single. I bet your aunt must be very anxious about that, right?” Mrs. Yao asked with concern, but she was actually trying to get some useful information.
Zi Beiying frowned. She understood why Mrs. Yao asked that question, and so did Gu Ning. Xu Qinyin wasn’t dumb either, and knew what Mrs. Yao wanted to hear.
Right when Xu Qinyin was about to say something, Mrs. Yao continued. “Although Jinchen is still young, many people at his age already have a girlfriend or boyfriend. It’s understandable that your aunt is worried about Jinchen’s future. I can understand your aunt, because Liwei is also single and she’s already twenty-five this year!”
At the beginning, Zi Beiying and Gu Ning weren’t sure of Mrs. Yao’s intention, but now they figured out that she wanted Xu Jinchen to be her daughter’s boyfriend.
Zi Beiying was a little displeased, but wasn’t mad. After all, Mrs. Yao didn’t know that Xu Jinchen already had a girlfriend and the girl was her. Even if she was aware of it, it wouldn’t change anything because Xu Jinchen disliked Yao Liwei.
“Thank you so much for your care about Jinchen, Mrs. Yao. Actually, Jinchen already has a girlfriend, and my aunt is very satisfied with his choice,” said Xu Qinyin.
She knew that Mrs. Yao wanted Xu Jinchen to be Yao Liwei’s boyfriend, and Yao Liwei had tried to attract Xu Jinchen’s attention. Unfortunately, Xu Jinchen had no interest in Yao Liwei.
Xu Qinyin had a good impression of Yao Liwei, but it was Xu Jinchen’s personal affair after all. As an outsider, she couldn’t interfere.
All the families that were familiar with the Xu family had tried to introduce their daughters to Xu Jinchen, because Xu Jinchen was the only single man in the Xu family.
Xu Qinyin’s own younger brother was too young and wasn’t an adult yet, so her younger brother wasn’t their focus.
Because they were in the same circle, the Xu family didn’t stop them from introducing girls to Xu Jinchen, but it was up to Xu Jinchen whether he wanted to choose a girlfriend from among them. If either of them was unwilling to be together, their parents wouldn’t force them.
Yao Liwei had failed to attract Xu Jinchen’s attention, but she didn’t give up. After all, Xu Jinchen was very outstanding in almost every aspect. She could hardly give him up!
Hearing the news, Mrs. Yao and Yao Liwei were upset.
“What? Jinchen already has a girlfriend?” Mrs. Yao exclaimed. She couldn’t accept it, but she immediately realized that she shouldn’t forget her manners, so she acted happy for Older Mrs. Xu. “Oh, I’m so happy for your aunt, but who is Jinchen’s girlfriend?”
“Um, my younger sister-in-law wasn’t born in the capital, but Singapore,” said Xu Qinyin. She directly addressed Zi Beiying as her sister-in-law, which meant the Xu family already accepted Zi Beiying.
Mrs. Yao and Yao Liwei understood why Xu Qinyin said that, and were very disappointed.
“Oh, what does her family do?” asked Mrs. Yao. She wanted to know whether the girl’s family was more influential than the Yao family. If not, it would be harder for her to accept the result. If it was, she would feel better.
Xu Qinyin understood what Mrs. Yao wanted to know, but she actually didn’t know much about Zi Beiying’s family. She only knew that Zi Beiying’s family wasn’t worse than the Xu family, so she said, “I don’t know much, but I’m sure my younger sister-in-law’s family is no worse than our family.. My aunt even said that it’s Jinchen’s honor that he can win the girl’s heart.”
