"What misunderstanding?"

“My brother is not just a doctor. He is a doctor purely out of interest. His business talent is even better than my dad’s. He founded Chengye Group from scratch. He is the big boss. I am just managing the company for him. I am his employee!”

Lin Yue's eyes widened in surprise, "I thought..." No wonder he was so forceful that night, telling her to throw away her clothes. Turns out he had money to burn!

"Now you know how capable your husband is, right? Can you buy it with peace of mind? Hurry up and go." Song Yunxi pushed her towards the dressing room.

After changing into the sweater, Lin Yue turned around in front of the mirror. The sweater cost 26,000 yuan, but when she wore it, it really looked no different from one that cost a little over 100 yuan.

Seeing Lin Yue after she changed her clothes, Song Yunxi's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but admire her inwardly. The pure white sweater had a very unique neckline design; the wide neckline opened just right, perfectly revealing one shoulder. This subtle sexiness and playfulness intertwined to create a unique charm. Coupled with her naturally fair and snow-white skin, she now looked like a pure and beautiful snow fairy, making it impossible not to want to look at her a few more times.

"Little sister-in-law, this dress suits you so well! Your skin is so fair, and you have such a great figure. My brother is so lucky." Song Yunxi stared at Lin Yue with shining eyes, making her feel embarrassed.

"Wouldn't it be inappropriate to wear this to school...?" This is just too sexy. Lin Yue always wears casual sportswear to school, prioritizing comfort.

"That's perfect! Pretty girls should dress like this!"

Song Yunxi beckoned to the shop assistant, "Wrap this one, and these, all of them up."

Lin Yue wanted to stop him, but then she remembered the clothes that Song Yunzheng had torn. Wasn't he rich and powerful? Why should she be polite?

Song Yunxi swiped her card; the six pieces of clothing cost a total of 120,000 yuan. The two of them then happily went to the next store.

After they walked away, the clerk who had spoken rudely earlier walked up to the store manager and asked, "Manager, who is that girl? She looks like a minor, and she obviously can't afford it."

"Keep your voice down! You almost offended our store's biggest client! Ms. Song from Chengye Group, her brother is a doctor, and her father is a leader who frequently appears on the news. If you don't know what kind of family the Song family is, go online and look it up! You dared to offend the Song family's daughter-in-law? I need to seriously consider whether you've passed your probation period."

"No, manager, I know I was wrong..."

When Lin Yue arrived at the jewelry store, it was already 3 p.m. She was so tired that she could no longer walk. Seeing the sofa in the store, she quickly sat down as if it were a lifeline.

"Sister-in-law, why don't you sit here and rest for a while? I'll just look around and come back to you right away."

Lin Yue smiled and waved her hand, "Okay, go ahead."

Song Yunxi's biggest hobby is collecting all kinds of gemstone necklaces, so she was completely attracted by the dazzling diamonds in the shop window and no longer cared about Lin Yue.

Perhaps due to drinking too much water while shopping, Lin Yue felt an intense urge to urinate. She initially intended to hold it until Song Yunxi finished shopping, but looking up, she saw Song Yunxi intently admiring a necklace in her hands, knowing she wouldn't be finishing shopping anytime soon. "I can't take it anymore, my bladder is protesting!" she thought. So, she quickly handed her items to the shop assistant and rushed to the restroom.

As the sound of flushing water rang out, Lin Yue walked briskly out of the stall, ready to wash her hands, when suddenly, a person wearing a black hooded sweatshirt rushed out from the back stall, took out a pre-prepared towel, and covered Lin Yue's mouth and nose.

The incident happened so suddenly that Lin Yue had no idea what was going on. When she finally realized what was happening and tried to break free, she was already limp and lost consciousness after only a few struggles.

Meanwhile, Song Yunxi finished paying and was happily carrying her purchases when she turned around but couldn't find Lin Yue. The shop assistant told her, "That girl went to the restroom, but it's been a long time and she hasn't come back yet."

A bad feeling washed over her instantly, and she rushed to the bathroom. However, the bathroom was empty. She dialed Lin Yue's number while running out in a panic, but no one answered the phone.

Her heart sank, and that familiar sense of fear surged through her. Realizing something was wrong, she hurriedly dialed Song Yunzheng's number, "Brother! Sister-in-law is missing! Sister-in-law is missing at the mall!"
