Chapter 21: What goes with what goes with what goes with what
"Ah Xuan, you are so kind."
Xu Yueyao immediately raised her chin proudly and glanced provocatively in Jiang Yao's direction.
Jiang Yao watched the two people acting and found it funny.
These two people really don't match the pot with the lid.
Looking at Jiang Yao's half-smile and nonchalant expression, Lu Xuan felt even more embarrassed and glared at the clerk next to him.
"Why, why don't you go quickly? Can't you understand what I'm saying?"
The clerk quickly explained, "Sir, I'm sorry, there's only one of this designer dress, and these other pieces are limited editions. We're out of stock, but if you need them, we can transfer them over. You can pay and come pick them up later."
"How much?"
"This one was embroidered by a master craftsman, it cost three million. This one was custom-made by a master craftsman, it cost two million. This..."
Lu Xuan's pupils suddenly shrank and he became silent for a moment.
This set of clothes actually costs several million, which adds up to nearly tens of millions!
No matter how rich he is, he wouldn't spend it like this.
Besides, the company is preparing for an IPO and investment recently, and the funds are not enough for turnover.
How could he be willing to waste it on Xu Yueyao?
"Would you like to make a reservation, sir?"
The clerk on the other end continued to ask, but was met with silence.
When Xu Yueyao saw Lu Xuan was silent, she was immediately furious.
Are you reluctant to spend millions on yourself?
But after all, they were outside, and in front of Jiang Yao, so she had to save face for Lu Xuan.
So she forced a smile and said, "Sister, you actually bought such expensive clothes. Even if you found a rich man, you can't spend money like this. You can't be too vain. It will be embarrassing if your card can't be swiped."
Jiang Yao's smile grew even wider. Without saying anything, she turned around, took out the black card her uncle had given her, and handed it to the waiter, "Swipe the card."
"Yes, miss."
The clerk was already dissatisfied with the two people who suddenly appeared and acted arrogantly. At this time, he looked at the big customer with a gleam in his eyes. He also glanced at Lu Xuan and Xu Yueyao in a somewhat obscure way, and then respectfully took the black card.
The card machine made a "beep" sound and the payment was successfully deducted, like a slap in the face to Lu Xuan and Xu Yueyao.
"Congratulations, customer, your payment has been successfully completed. The clothes have been packed for you. Would you like them to be delivered to your door, or would you like them to take away yourself?"
"take away."
After Jiang Yao finished speaking, he picked up his clothes and turned away without even giving them a spare glance.
Xu Yueyao noticed that the glances from the shop assistants and customers around her seemed to be full of mockery and contempt, which made her feel uncomfortable.
She was so angry that her face turned red and she couldn't stay there for even a second.
Lu Xuan felt even more angry and embarrassed, and turned around and left without even caring about her for a second.
Xu Yueyao hurriedly chased after him and had to patiently comfort him.
"Ah Xuan, my sister has simply strayed into a wrong path. It's not worth it for you to be angry over her. The most important thing for us is tomorrow's project. As long as the two of us work together, we will definitely be able to regain our cooperation with Fengyun Group. You promised to help me negotiate."
If it weren't for this big project, would she be so humble?
I really don’t know what’s going on with Fengyun Group. What does this have to do with me?
After hearing this, Lu Xuan came back to his senses from his anger.
Yes.
So what if Jiang Yao is rich.
The man gave her money only because of her beauty.
Just treat it as a toy.
After all, what we can give is limited.
Without me, she would probably never be able to enter the upper class society and see what true power and influence means.
As for me, as long as I can successfully negotiate this project, get half of the profits, and successfully list Lu Corporation, what kind of woman will I not be able to get in the future?
Do you really think I cherish her?
By then, she would have crawled back to his feet.
"Okay, stop shopping. I'll take you home."
When facing Xu Yueyao, his attitude became impatient again.
Anyway, now that she needs his help, he is no longer polite.
Lu Xuan ignored her and got into the car.
Xu Yueyao thought of the project, so she could only suppress her anger for the time being and leave with him.
On the way, she suddenly noticed a cat figurine on the dashboard of the car, holding a blessing bag in its hand.
Looks festive and cute.
But, could it be Lu Xuan's stuff? The moment I thought about it, I knew what was going on.
Xu Yueyao was quite disgusted.
"Why do you put such cheap ornaments in your car?"
"A place like this should have a Buddha statue inlaid with gold, or some antique items, which would be more presentable."
Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan looked at the blessing bag in the cat figurine's hand and was slightly stunned.
From my impression, it seemed like this was a amulet that Jiang Yao had specially obtained for him from the temple.
At that time, she repeatedly told him to keep it in the car, which would protect his safety.
He was stunned for a moment.
Suddenly I remembered Jiang Yao's expression at that time: joy, excitement, and love...
But now, everything has disappeared...
Inexplicably, he felt a little empty in his heart.
But Xu Yueyao was still chattering beside him.
"What? You are the president of Lu Group after all. If others saw this, they would definitely laugh at you."
Lu Xuan frowned irritably.
"If you don't like it, throw it away!"
When Xu Yueyao heard this, her eyebrows flashed.
Then he picked up the cat ornament, opened the window, and threw it directly into the trash can on the side of the road.
Jiang Yao, no matter how much effort you put in, the person next to Lu Xuan now is her!
…
Jiang Yao returned home carrying a few bags.
"Miss, you're back."
Wang Ma hurried forward and took the things from her hand. "I'll help you take them back to your room."
"Wait a moment." Jiang Yao took out two of the gift boxes and looked at her with a smile: "Auntie Wang, I bought these two for you."
One of them was a set of tea sets. She had noticed long ago that Aunt Wang had the habit of drinking tea and seemed to be very good at it.
One was an exquisitely carved wooden hairpin. She had long noticed that Wang Ma had the habit of wearing her hair in a bun, but this was not something she bought...
"This..." Wang Ma looked flattered and waved her hands repeatedly, "Miss, I can't accept this."
"Auntie Wang, you've taken such good care of me during this time, and I've never had the chance to repay you. If you don't even let me send this, I'll feel really guilty."
"Miss, don't feel guilty. My husband will pay me a high salary. I am not working for nothing."
Wang Ma is quite honest.
"That's the money my uncle gave me, and this is a token of my appreciation. They're two different things. Just think of it as showing filial piety to your elders."
Jiang Yao blinked his lively eyes and said pitifully, "Or maybe you don't like me and that's why you don't accept me!"
When Wang Ma heard this, her heart ached. "How is that possible? I'll accept it. It's a gift from the young lady, so I have to accept it."
A smile suddenly appeared in Jiang Yao's eyes, like a cunning little fox.
She had long been accustomed to her identity as an ordinary person and never treated anyone as a servant. In this place, only Aunt Wang was with her and took care of her. She was now her closest person.
She will be with her and make the days ahead full of sunshine and enthusiasm.
Mother Wang's face was full of helplessness, but her eyes looked at her even more gentle and kind.
Only a blind person would not know how to cherish such a good lady.
Afterwards, Jiang Yao specially helped Wang Ma cook. The two of them talked and laughed, which was quite heartwarming.
Seeing Jiang Yao washing and cooking skillfully, Mother Wang was moved.
Although she knew that she was the daughter of the richest man, she did not have the look of a commoner who had suddenly become rich. Instead, she was very approachable.
She is worthy of being the eldest lady’s daughter.
It's a pity that the eldest lady and her husband passed away early...
She will definitely help them take good care of the young lady. With her around, no one can bully the young lady!
Thinking about it, she quietly moved her wrist.
