Shen Linzhou: "Mr. Jiang also has the problem of mishearing? Who said more than a million? You only need to pay the equivalent, and I'll cover the rest."

Regardless of the circumstances, buying this bag would be a huge loss for Jiang Yan, who was unwilling to suffer a loss. He glanced at the bag and smiled, "Buy it. If Xiaoyu wants it, buy it. A man's money should be spent on his wife."

He took out his card, handed it to the teller, and said, "Swipe card."

Shen Linzhou sneered, covered the card reader, and stared directly at Jiang Yan: "What did you say?"

Jiang Yan: "A man's money should be spent on his wife, shouldn't it?"

He gestured for the teller to swipe the card quickly. Some tellers had seen this kind of chaotic scene many times before; two men vying for one woman was nothing new. Having seen the drama, he still had to do his job. He gave Chen Linzhou a professional smile and said:

"Sir, could you please move your hand?"

If he swipes the card, it's tantamount to admitting Nan Yu is his wife; if he doesn't, he'll just pretend to be her, and he won't have spent any money—it's pure profit.

"My girlfriend, how come she's being spent on my wife? Mr. Jiang, if you're broke, be more discreet in public. You think you can pick up girls with just over a million yuan? Your little bit of money is only enough to feed a beggar."

He then took the card from the saleswoman, stuffed it into Jiang Yan's jacket pocket, took the small bag that Nan Yu had just picked out, and said to the saleswoman:

"Wrap it up together."

He took out his card, which the saleswoman accepted with both hands.

Nan Yu shook Chen Linzhou's arm, couldn't help but pull him aside, and whispered in his ear, "Forget it, I don't like bags, don't waste money."

She touched her face, getting powder all over her hand. Although the makeup was beautiful, she couldn't touch it. Luckily, she managed to refrain from kissing it. She didn't lower her voice intentionally, so at least everyone present could hear her.

“We can’t waste money. We can’t be like Mr. Jiang, bringing people to Central, finding them we like, and then being reluctant to pay for them. We’ll just swipe the card, but there’s no PIN.”

The next sentence was said to the saleswoman.

The saleswoman nodded and was about to swipe the card when Jiang Yan pressed down on the machine. His face was grim. He could lose anything, but he couldn't lose face. He slapped the card on the marble surface and said, "Swipe this card!"

The saleswoman hesitated, "This..."

"Why don't you two discuss it first?"

Shen Linzhou: "Mr. Jiang, there's no need to make things difficult. You only buy bags for your wife, so I can't let you buy them for my wife."

After saying that, she looked down at Xiao Dengxin and said, "Next time you invite Xiao Chuan to dinner, bring this bag. If he asks who bought it, just say your husband bought it for you. Mr. Jiang is just showing us the way."

"Swipe your card and wrap it up," he said to the sales assistant.

These words made Jiang Yan's face turn green, then greener, even more disgusted than if he had swallowed a fly. He angrily said:

"Since the words have been spoken, there's no going back. A mere million is nothing to this young master. Swipe your card."

Shen Linzhou: "Mr. Jiang, you need to make it clear whether it's a gift for your wife or an apology, so that it won't make things difficult for everyone in the future."

Jiang Yan is now in a difficult situation.

To save face, one must follow Shen Linzhou's lead, even if it costs money, there's no guarantee of getting anything in return.

No, a rich kid's reputation can't be bought with millions.

In the end, Jiang Yan still had to bleed, giving it to her as an apology.

Originally, it was supposed to be under a million, but now it's being bundled together with that 130,000 bag.

Shen Linzhou took the bag with one hand, put his other arm around the boy's waist, and smiled slightly at Jiang Yan: "Mr. Jiang, you're very generous. My girlfriend and I will be leaving now. Please make yourself at home."

Jiang Yan paid the money, but was seething with anger.

He thought to himself, where would a poor kid get so much money? It was just a psychological tactic. Jiang Yan firmly believed that he had been scammed and regretted not letting the other party actually swipe their card.

By humiliating him and then making amends, Nan Yu can see who truly has the ability.

Unfortunately, it has already happened.

Jiang Yan was extremely annoyed.

*

"Now it's our turn to settle the score, isn't it?"

As soon as the door opened, Shen Linzhou slammed it shut on Nan Yu, not even giving her time to change her shoes. His dark eyes seemed to suck in her soul, making Deng Xin feel uneasy.

I couldn't help but look away, wanting to slip past her.

Shen Linzhou did not give him a chance.

She pinched the boy's chin and examined his made-up face. His lipstick had worn off while he was eating, revealing his original rosy complexion. He wore a hat over his wig, making him look just like a young girl, delicate and pretty.

Give me an explanation.

Nan Yu coughed lightly and explained in a weak voice:

"I wanted to tell you something, but I forgot. Then I remembered that you went home to celebrate your sister's birthday. I thought Jiang Yan had given so many tips in the live stream, and he had asked me out many times. Since you weren't home today, I... I went to meet him."

"Actually, everything was fine at first, but then I ran into Xiao Chuan and the others, and they recognized me. I panicked and wanted to leave, so I didn't eat much. Jiang Yan probably thought it was too fast and caught up with me. I was in a hurry to leave, so I was delayed on the road for a while... and then you appeared."

"By the way, didn't you say you were celebrating your sister's birthday?"

Shen Linzhou: "She was insisting on having hot pot, but she ran into you on a different route and didn't go."

"Huh?" She lowered her head in remorse: "I'm sorry, I didn't know this would happen. I'll never wear women's clothes out again."

Shen Linzhou hugged the boy tightly, and Nan Yu felt pain, but since it was his fault, he endured it.

"Don't meet with other men behind my back."

Shen Linzhou's voice trembled as he spoke. Nan Yu was stunned. Two seconds later, she slowly raised her hand to hug his waist and comforted him from behind.

"I won't go see her next time. You have another meal tonight. Go home and keep your sister company. I'm really sorry. Tell her not to be angry."

"She wasn't angry, but I was."

"sorry……"

"I don't want to apologize."

"So what do you want? How can I make you feel better?"

"Coax me."

"May I change my shoes first?"

Shen Linzhou finally stepped back. After Nan Yu changed her shoes, he also changed his shoes, took off his coat and went to the living room. Deng Xin went to the bathroom to remove her makeup and take off her wig. She casually dried herself with a washcloth.

Nan Yu felt guilty as her forehead and left cheek were slightly pink from the smudged powder. She took a few steps out and stood in front of Chen Linzhou. She even subconsciously scratched the back of her head, trying to coax him, but she didn't know how to do it.

Shen Linzhou remained silent and sat there.

They don't use their phones either.

Arms crossed.

Close your eyes.

Nan Yu thought for a long time, then sat on his lap. Shen Linzhou opened his eyes, pouted, and apologized, "I'm sorry."

"I don't want to hear that."

Nan Yu pursed his lips, staring at the other's mouth. The more he looked, the more he wanted to kiss it. He swallowed and slowly lowered his head. Just as he was about to kiss him, Shen Linzhou turned his head away and pressed his small mouth against his cheek.

Nan Yu's eyes stung with tears.

Don't you want kisses anymore?

The next second, he felt something poking his leg.

Nan Yu: "..."

He was contemplating whether to move or not.

If someone makes a mistake in their thinking, should they be held responsible for it?

After hesitating several times, he still moved his hand down to touch it, but it was pulled away again. Shen Linzhou's voice was hoarse, as if he had laryngitis, "Don't touch it."

Nan Yu: "..."

What's wrong? Can't you even appease this one?

Is he really going to get angry with me?
