Chapter 135 Head-on Confrontation

Chu Xi thought that as long as she was wearing clothes, even if Chu Siran and Lin Yilan competed with her, they would never be able to win. Chu Xi bit her lower lip and looked at Li Mu.

Li Mu couldn't stand Chu Xi's charming look, so he immediately took out his bank card and went to the front desk to pay the bill. Seeing this, Chu Siran stopped him immediately.

"Did we say we'd give you this dress? Why are you in such a hurry to check out? Why are you dreaming so much?" Chu Siran said to Li Mu, then looked at Chu Xi on the side, sneered, and then said to her:

"I advise you to take it off now. Don't you see the bodyguards behind us? If you insist on making things difficult for us, you will regret it later."

The bodyguards did not enter the store. After all, considering that so many people suddenly appearing in the clothing store would easily affect the business inside, they just waited outside the door, quietly watching every move in the store. The bodyguards realized that Chu Siran was looking at them, but did not react.

Seeing this, Chu Xi sneered, "You're kidding me! You said you brought all those bodyguards outside? Come on, I know exactly how much pocket money the Chu family gives you. You don't even have the money to hire that many bodyguards."

Hearing Chu Xi say this, Lin Yilan smoothed her hair and said, "They are indeed not Siran's bodyguards. I'm sorry to bother you, Miss Chu. These are the bodyguards assigned to me by Huo Juncheng."

Lin Yilan's original intention was just to clarify the facts, but when Chu Xi heard this, it took on a different meaning.

She had been pursuing Huo Juncheng for so long without any results. Now Lin Yilan was showing off to her the bodyguard Huo Juncheng assigned to her. She felt unbalanced no matter how she heard it.

"Oh, Miss Lin, I heard that you are very skilled in martial arts. Is it necessary for the Huo family to send so many bodyguards to protect you?"

Lin Yilan heard Chu Xi's question and was about to explain the reason for this matter to her when Chu Siran took over the topic: "Are you envious of her martial arts skills? The Huo family just dotes on Yilan, but they have to send so many bodyguards to protect her. What's wrong? If you have the guts, ask your fiancé to hire bodyguards for you."

Hearing Chu Siran's sarcastic mockery, Chu Xi was so angry that her eyes turned red. She glanced at Li Mu. She knew that Li Mu would never send so many bodyguards to protect her.

Since she knew it, there was no need for her to bring it up. To ease her embarrassment, Chu Xi changed the subject to the dress. "Anyway, no matter what you say, I won't give you this dress. I'm so sorry."

Chu Xi pulled Li Mu and walked straight to the cashier. Chu Siran frowned when he saw this. "Yilan, why don't you let your bodyguards come in and take care of these things? Are you just going to let them stand outside the store as door gods?"

"This... they are just protecting my personal safety. They shouldn't care about such trivial matters, right?"

"Do you really need them to protect your personal safety? It's not easy to find places where they can be used these days. Wouldn't it be a shame if you didn't use them?"

Chu Siran said this while looking at the bodyguards outside. However, the bodyguards inside did not listen to her orders at all. Although she kept winking at them, they all turned a deaf ear.

Lin Yilan felt that what Chu Siran said was right. She looked at the bodyguards outside the door. The bodyguards outside the door seemed to have been waiting for her orders. Lin Yilan just nodded, and all the bodyguards came in.

Before Lin Yilan could say anything, the bodyguards who came in walked straight towards Chu Xi and Li Mu. Chu Xi was holding Li Mu's bank card and was about to swipe it happily when she was stopped by the bodyguards and was unable to react for a while.

"What do you mean?"

These bodyguards did not answer Chu Xi's question at all, and directly snatched the bank card from Chu Xi's hand. Chu Xi was about to scream when she saw this, but the bodyguard stuffed the bank card into Li Mu's hand.

"Excuse me, sir and miss, but our young mistress had her eye on this dress first. Please give it up."

"I'm really sorry, you really can't wear this dress today." Chu Siran walked towards Chu Xi with a charming smile. She glanced at the bodyguard who had just robbed the bank card and gave him a look of praise.

"You...you're disturbing public order. With so many people coming in, how is business going to continue in this clothing store? Don't you have any sense of public morality?"

Li Mu, who was standing by, saw the bodyguards stopping him. His temper had long since worn off, and he seemed a bit agitated. He looked at the waiter nearby, assuming that the staff inside would cooperate with him and come out to stop the bodyguards' behavior.

As a result, the front desk staff not only did not step forward to stop it, but also watched it all with an official smile.

"You guys don't care about these things?" Li Mu didn't expect this to happen. He looked at the front desk staff and asked, "Don't you want your sales?"

"Excuse me, sir..."

The front desk clerk was interrupted by Li Mu before she could finish her words. "Forget it, your performance has nothing to do with me. My daughter Xixi has taken a fancy to this dress in your store, and I'll pay ten times the price for it."

As Li Mu spoke, he handed the bank card over again. However, the receptionist seemed not to notice at all and continued to smile at him without taking the card.

"Since he wants to spend 100,000 yuan on a piece of clothing, then you should sell it to him. This way, you won't have to worry about your sales, and you should also thank this young master of the Li family."

No one expected Chu Siran to say such words. While everyone was shocked, the receptionist actually took the card from Li Mu's hand.

With a "beep", the payment was completed. Although Chu Xi didn't expect Chu Siran to give her the clothes directly in the end, she was shocked, but more proud.

Chu Xi looked at Chu Siran who was standing beside her and found that Chu Siran was not disappointed at all. Instead, he looked even more proud than her. Chu Xi couldn't help but feel confused. Chu Siran couldn't help but burst into laughter when he saw her like that.

"Oh my dear Miss Chu Xi, you might have seen it when you walked in. This shop belongs to the Chu family." Chu Siran said, motioning the receptionist to leave first, and then continued, "And what's even more embarrassing is that I have been in charge of running this shop all along."

"What?"

Chu Xi was really shocked when she heard Chu Siran say this. She didn't expect the situation to be like this.

"I have to thank you and your fiancée so much for making our store so much profit for no reason. I'm really... so grateful."

Lin Yilan, who was standing aside, finally understood what was going on. After all the fuss, this store belonged to Chu Siran, so even if she didn't call bodyguards, as long as Chu Siran didn't want to sell the clothes to Chu Xi, then Chu Xi would definitely not be able to buy the clothes.

"Now that you have bought the clothes, you must wear them well. After all, it's not easy for you to wear such clean clothes with your heavy makeup." After Chu Siran said this, he left the clothing store without waiting for Chu Xi's reaction.
