When I went downstairs, the first floor was deserted. Aunt Mei and Uncle Feng were still at the hospital and hadn't returned yet. Su Zhinan was also away on a business trip these past two days.
She was all alone at home again.
Su Ping didn't like this feeling, so she changed her shoes and drove away.
Finally, we arrived at a jewelry store.
The shop assistant could tell that Su Ping's outfit and demeanor were extraordinary, and immediately greeted her with a smile.
"Miss, is there anything I can help you with? You can try on any you like."
Faced with the shop assistant's enthusiasm, Su Ping shook her head and declined her offer.
Looking at the dazzling array of jewelry displayed in the counter, Su Ping had no idea what Tu Ling liked.
Suddenly, a flash of red crossed her mind.
The first time I saw her, she was also wearing a glamorous and flamboyant red dress, just like the person she was.
She has a long, fair neck and a shapely figure; she would look stunning in such a ruby necklace.
With this idea in mind, Su Ping walked to the other side to see if there was anything suitable for Tu Ling.
At this moment, the manager walking beside Su Ping seemed to have received some instructions. His face turned serious, and he whispered into the earphone clipped to his ear.
"Young Master has brought his girlfriend to choose a gift. Everyone, please go to the door to greet her."
Su Ping looked through the rows one by one, but didn't see anything that caught her eye.
Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks, looking at the sparkling ruby necklace on display.
The ruby is very grand, with a few diamonds set around the edge, but no other superfluous decorations, resembling a red teardrop formed from the sky.
Su Ping could already imagine how beautiful the necklace would look on Tu Ling's neck.
"Hello, could you please show me that necklace?"
Hearing her words, the saleswoman smiled, nodded, and came over to get it.
But before it could even reach Su Ping's hands, a woman wearing a red fitted short skirt snatched it away from not far behind her.
"Miss, this..."
After seeing the face of the woman standing next to Su Ping and the man beside her, the saleswoman looked at Su Ping with some embarrassment.
"Ayan, doesn't this necklace look great with my dress today?"
A sweet, delicate female voice rang out, and Su Ping couldn't help but turn her head to look in that direction.
The first thing he saw was the woman's tightly bound breasts, which were about to burst out, while the ruby necklace he had just taken a liking to was being held up to her chest, the ruby almost falling into the cleavage.
When the woman saw her looking at her, she stretched her neck, puffed out her chest, and then snuggled into the arms of the man beside her as if showing off.
Su Ping felt a sudden discomfort and quickly looked away.
This action, however, put the woman in a very good mood.
She had finally managed to get into the bed of the eldest young master of the Lu family, so she couldn't let this somewhat attractive woman seduce him.
"Okay, okay, as long as the baby likes it, pick whatever you like."
As a male voice entered her ears, Su Ping heard a smacking sound, followed by a woman's giggles.
Su Ping had lost interest in listening to the two of them and was about to look at something else when the saleswoman, her face flushed, grabbed her arm.
"Young master, this young lady saw the necklace first..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was glared at by the woman in the red dress.
Then, looking somewhat aggrieved, she snuggled into the man's arms beside her, her voice trembling with tears.
"Ayan, but I really like this."
The girl's coquettish voice satisfied the man's vanity to some extent. He pulled the woman into his arms and said in a cold voice.
"What's wrong with you? Can't you tell who your boss is anymore?"
Su Ping hadn't planned on doing anything, but after hearing those words, she couldn't help but look up at the man with some curiosity.
Just then, the man turned and looked at her. When their eyes met, Su Ping didn't know why, but she suddenly felt a little dazed looking at his face.
Then a tear uncontrollably fell from the corner of her eye.
Seeing this, the woman nestled in the man's arms felt an even stronger premonition, and her eyes were filled with hostility as she looked at Su Ping.
Feeling her tears inexplicably falling, Su Ping belatedly reached out to wipe them away.
But the tear ducts seemed to be out of control, and I couldn't stop them from crying.
What's wrong? Why does she want to cry?
She was wiping away her tears, and the man opposite her was also stunned for a moment.
Then, looking at her in disbelief, he said, "It's just a necklace. Why are you crying?"
Although he admitted that she was quite pretty, the fact that she suddenly cried in front of him made it seem as if he had bullied her.
Su Ping wiped away her tears, her voice choked with emotion.
"Do you think I want to cry? I don't know why I'm crying either."
"Ayan, who is she?"
The woman in the red dress immediately became agitated upon seeing this, and looked up at the man with a displeased expression, questioning him.
She didn't believe there was nothing between them; why would she cry to a stranger if they didn't know each other?
The shop assistants nearby were also attracted by the commotion, and they all lowered their heads and pricked up their ears, afraid of missing any earth-shattering gossip.
“I don’t know her, baby, I’m not lying to you, I really don’t know her.”
Lu Zhiyan prided himself on having seen countless people, and he certainly wouldn't forget a woman as beautiful as her, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't recall where he had seen her before.
His words sounded more like a sophistry to the woman, who then shoved the necklace she was holding into his arms.
"I don't care! You said your aunt wanted to see me, so I agreed to go back to your house with you. Today, you'd better think carefully about who you should give this necklace to. It's either me or her!"
As the woman spoke, her chest heaved, as if it were about to burst out of her chest.
Su Ping could no longer hear what they were saying; all she could see was Lu Zhiyan's face.
Why does looking at his face make me feel so uncomfortable? My heart aches little by little.
Su Ping clutched her chest, breathing heavily, feeling that urge to suffocate again.
While Lu Zhiyan was still trying to defend herself, she suddenly felt Su Ping's face turn deathly pale, and then she closed her eyes and fell to the side.
No way, just because of a necklace, he got so worked up?
Before his brain could even process what was happening, his body had already pushed the woman in his arms away and taken a step towards her to support her as she fell.
After being pushed away, the woman in the red dress gritted her teeth in anger and looked resentfully at Lu Zhiyan, who was supporting her and leaning her on his shoulder.
Why should the man she finally managed to hook up with be snatched away by another woman?
"Ayan, if she really likes that necklace, I don't need it. Give it to her."
The woman in the red dress bit her lower lip, a hurt expression on her face.
