Meng Shuyun, Su Xiulan, and Gu Xue strolled through the bustling streets, sweeping through two blocks, still in high spirits with satisfied smiles on their faces, showing no signs of fatigue.

The shops lined the streets, and the cries of vendors rose and fell.

Ahead, an exquisitely decorated high-end women's clothing store came into view.

The shop windows are bright and clean, and the fashionable clothes worn by the mannequins inside attract the attention of passersby.

The three of them had decided to come and take a look long ago, and before they even entered the store, they could hear the hearty laughter of the customers inside.

"Jianguo, do you think this dress looks good?" A soft, coquettish female voice came from inside the store.

"Buy it if you like it." The man's voice was deep and indulgent.

Meng Shuyun gently pushed open the shop door, and warm yellow lights poured out from inside.

Her gaze swept across the store, and when she saw the people inside, she suddenly stopped in her tracks, completely stunned.

Inside the store, Xiang Shanshan and Ye Jianguo were equally stunned. Their eyes widened in disbelief as they stared intently at Meng Shuyun and her group at the door.

Meng Shuyun's gaze was sharp as a knife, sweeping over the two of them as if she could see right through them.

Xiang Shanshan felt her scalp tingle under that gaze, and the color drained from her face, turning her deathly pale.

Following behind Meng Shuyun, Su Xiulan entered the store and saw Xiang Shanshan and Ye Jianguo. She was surprised to find them in Guangzhou, which was thousands of miles away.

Moreover, how come Xiang Shanshan's hairstyle and clothing style are so similar to mine?

Su Xiulan felt a wave of unease. Looking at Xiang Shanshan and Ye Jianguo, the intimate posture between the two made their relationship self-evident.

A married man and a college student—this combination certainly sparks the imagination.

Su Xiulan pondered to herself, how come she had never realized Ye Jianguo was such a womanizer before? It turns out he had a thing for college students.

If Liu Xiaomeng knew about this secret love affair, who knows what kind of interesting expression she would have.

Su Xiulan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mocking smile. She stared at Xiang Shanshan with amusement in her eyes: "What, now that you don't like Su Xiangyang anymore, you've turned your attention to that scumbag Ye Jianguo?"

"That's true. Ye Jianguo may not have many other advantages, but he certainly has a lot of money."

When Ye Jianguo saw Su Xiulan, his eyes instantly lit up with joy. He never expected to meet her in Guangzhou.

His gaze fell on the two exquisitely beautiful children in the stroller, and his eyes lit up. He was certain: these were his children! They looked so good, just like him.

"Xiulan, there's really nothing between us. Xiang Shanshan came here for an internship to broaden her horizons; we don't have the kind of relationship you're thinking of."

Ye Jianguo hurriedly explained, taking a step forward as he spoke, trying to get closer to Su Xiulan.

Su Xiulan took a step back in disgust, her eyes filled with contempt. She thought to herself, "His words are just a fig leaf to cover up his dark thoughts."

Seeing this, Meng Shuyun quickly stepped in front of Su Xiulan, like a solid wall, blocking Ye Jianguo's disgusting gaze:

"Take your eyes away and stop looking at my Xiulan with those disgusting eyes. Isn't this college student next to you fair-skinned and young enough for you to look at?"

Su Xiulan and Gu Xue had come to buy clothes with great enthusiasm, but this encounter instantly dampened their spirits.

Su Xiulan frowned and said with a look of disgust, "Let's go. I don't like the clothes here either."

Just as the three were about to leave, a shop assistant with a big smile rushed forward and said enthusiastically, "Hello, you are the 1,000th customer to enter the store. Please feel free to pick any clothes you like, and we will give you the lowest discount."

Upon hearing about the discount, the three stopped in their tracks. Since they were already there and there was a discount, they decided to stay and carefully select clothes.

Seeing this, Xiang Shanshan scoffed disdainfully. In her opinion, it was just a marketing tactic by the merchants. In the end, they still had to pay money to buy it. They really thought there was no such thing as a free lunch. These people were so naive.

Su Xiulan took a fancy to a dress and had just picked it up when Xiang Shanshan came over and said she wanted one too.

This action annoyed Su Xiulan greatly.

When it was time to pay, the clerk smiled and said to Su Xiulan, "We've arranged a free meal for you, so you don't need to pay anything." The clerk's voice was warm and friendly.

Xiang Shanshan's eyes widened in disbelief. She never expected that Su Xiulan and the others would actually get their bill for free!

When it was her turn to pay, the clerk calculated that it would cost more than three hundred yuan.

"Hello ma'am, the price after the discount is 365 yuan. That's the correct price; it's the best deal we've given you," the salesperson explained politely.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Shanshan immediately became anxious.

She saw that the clothes on the street outside were quite cheap, so she went into this store. But after just a few items she picked up, they were so expensive!

Looking at Su Xiulan and her group, who got a free meal, she was filled with resentment and argued with the shop assistant: "Why can they get a free meal, but I can't? Are you doing this on purpose? You said you were giving me a discount, but you didn't actually give me a discount at all."

"I'm demanding you give me a 50% discount!" Xiang Shanshan said, hands on her hips, her face full of anger.

Upon hearing this, the shop assistant's face turned cold, and she said without any politeness, "You ask why? It's because she's our boss's wife. Forget about giving you a free order, we can even empty the store and not sell you any clothes."

The shop assistant pointed at Gu Xue, her tone firm.

Gu Xue was also a little confused when she heard this. Looking at the shop assistant pointing at her, she wondered when she had a shop and how she didn't even know it.

At this moment, Meng Shuyun recalled that she and Su Xiangnan had come to Guangzhou to treat her leg before, and at that time, she and Gu Xue bought a lot of clothes.

Unexpectedly, Su Xiangnan is a man who quietly accomplishes great things; I thought he wasn't interested in selling clothes.

Gu Xue snapped out of her daze, looked at the shop assistant, pointed at Xiang Shanshan and said, "If she can't afford it, just kick her out. It's really inappropriate for her to be shouting and yelling in the store."

The shop assistant immediately approached Xiang Shanshan with a smile and said coldly, "Madam, if you like our clothes, please pay. If you don't have the money, please don't come in again."

Xiang Shanshan was so humiliated that her face turned bright red, her fists clenched, and her eyes filled with tears. She ran away crying and looking ashamed.

Just as the group was about to leave, Ye Jianguo blocked their way like a leech, stubbornly looking at Su Xiulan and saying, "I have something to say to you."

"You have nothing to say. Your student ran away. Aren't you going to chase after him?"

Meng Shuyun stepped forward, blocking Ye Jianguo's path, and said as if shooing away flies, "If something happens to the college students you've trained, what if..."

Ye Jianguo's face turned pale and then red as he looked in the direction Xiang Shanshan had run off to. He saw her making a move to crash into a car, acting as if she didn't care about her life.

He had no choice but to leave hastily to stop Xiang Shanshan.
