Chapter 31: The Shopping Spree Begins



After finishing the fried dough stick in her hand, Lin Xiaoxiao began to quietly drink her porridge.

Ignoring the ambiguous glances from the Wen family members.

She said those things not to gain sympathy, but because she felt the original owner of this body was truly unworthy.

If Wen Changjun and Qin Ying had any conscience left, they might have changed their attitude towards their biological daughter instead of blindly being kind to Wen Qin.

However, they did not.

Wen Changjun left in a hurry after breakfast. Although Lin Xiaoxiao's words touched him, he still needed to go to the old house to discuss matters with Wen Qin and the Liu family.

It concerns the future of the Wen family, so he has to take it seriously.

Before leaving, he reminded Qin Ying again to cultivate a good relationship with Lin Xiaoxiao.

Qin Ying was very reluctant, but considering the future development of the Wen family, she still agreed.

However, she didn't go herself, but instead sent Wen Qin and Wen Lin together.

She works at a department store, and if she brings this country bumpkin along, she's afraid she'll run into someone she knows. Lin Xiaoxiao's appearance will definitely embarrass her.

When they set off, Lin Xiaoxiao asked Qin Ying to give her some pocket money, at least a hundred yuan.

Qin Ying immediately refused, "Everyone only gets 5 yuan a month in pocket money. What do you want to do with so much?"

Wen Qin spoke up, "Mom, let's give this money to my sister. She's always had a hard life."

"If all else fails, I'll give her my secret stash of money."

Wen Qin outwardly expressed her support, seemingly to help Lin Xiaoxiao.

It's ironic that Lin Xiaoxiao came here with the intention of coveting the Wen family's money; she only came back because she was after the Wen family's money.

By speaking like that, she also demonstrated her generosity.

Following Wen Qin's words, Qin Ying realized this and felt even more disdain for Lin Xiaoxiao.

"I can give you 50, but that's all. 50 yuan is already two months' salary for most people. Don't be ungrateful," Qin Ying said impatiently.

If it weren't for Wen Qin's matter.

She didn't want to spend a single moment with this girl, and didn't want to talk to or interact with such a person.

Lin Xiaoxiao acted as if she hadn't heard, and simply stretched out her hand to take the money.

If it weren't for the smooth progress of future developments, she really wanted to teach this noisy woman a lesson.

She did not treat them the way she treated the Lin family.

Since the Lin family is shameless, thick-skinned, and has a large space, it's more appropriate to deal with them on the spot.

However, the Wen family has political connections, and Qin Ying also has a department store manager as a backer.

Lin Xiaoxiao was no match for four opponents.

Although she was quite skilled, she still preferred to be cautious when dealing with people who had resources and power, for fear of being caught off guard and losing her way.

When you teach them a lesson, you should find a good opportunity to do so.

This is what she was thinking: she wanted to slowly destroy the relationships within the Wen family, and then gradually dismantle the Wen family, ruining their most valued family interests and future prospects. Only then would she feel most at ease.

They all want to take advantage of me.

Then she need not be polite and must give the Wen family a chance to prove themselves.

An hour later.

In Beijing, they deliberately avoided the department store where Qin Ying worked and went to another one instead.

"Little sister, this must be your first time here, right? There are lots of good things here, let your brother and I show you around."

"We were originally going to the place where Mom works, but this is the biggest department store, so you'll have more things to choose from."

Wen Qin introduced the product to Lin Xiaoxiao with a gentle expression.

Wen Qin knew early this morning that she was going to the department store to shop, so she specially picked out the most fashionable clothes at the moment. With her fair and delicate round face, she attracted a lot of attention.

Lin Xiaoxiao wasn't as dazzling.

She was wearing a white shirt that was almost fuzzy from washing, black pants, and work shoes; she looked every bit the typical country bumpkin.

Coupled with Lin Xiaoxiao's thin figure and dark complexion, even though her facial features are good, it still greatly diminishes her appeal.

When the two stand together, the contrast between them is striking; one is a princess and the other a servant.

When we were on the street, everyone was paying attention to Wenqin, but once we got to the department store, everyone was looking at the two of them together. They were quite surprised. How could people who are so different become such good friends?

Lin Xiaoxiao had anticipated such gazes.

It's not that she doesn't want to become beautiful immediately, but everything takes time, right?

Moreover, she wasn't there to leave any benefits for the Wen family; she was there for revenge. Of course, it would be better if she looked a little less impressive, as it would be more in line with the fact that she had been abused for over a decade.

After she completely broke free and severed ties with the Wen family.

This way, I won't have to worry about the Wen family coming to take advantage of me when I become successful in the future.

After going to the countryside, I'll definitely make myself look beautiful.

With my own pills and the spiritual spring water, it's quite easy.

Therefore, she doesn't care about other people's opinions at all. She's just a little ugly temporarily, and she won't always look like this.

Wen Qin, who was standing to the side, had no idea what Lin Xiaoxiao was thinking, but she felt very comfortable seeing everyone talking about them.

Wen Lin followed silently behind, feeling a little disgusted with Lin Xiaoxiao.

He wanted to stop Wen Qin, but seeing how eager Wen Qin was to make amends to Lin Xiaoxiao, he shut his mouth.

As expected of one of the top department stores in Beijing, it has four floors.

The first floor is almost entirely filled with local specialties and food.

The second floor is filled with fabrics, clothes, shoes, cosmetics, and the like.

The third floor contains larger pieces of furniture, such as bicycles and radios.

They first went to the first floor, where Wen Qin and Lin Xiaoxiao bought several kinds of Daoxiangcun pastries to eat.

After finishing my shopping, I went straight to the second floor and arrived at the skincare products section.

"Little sister, quickly pick out a few boxes of face cream. It's good for your skin. After you apply it, your skin won't be as rough as it is now. You look like you used to work in the fields."

Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at the counter a few times.

These days, there are only a few brands of face cream, not as many varieties as before.

However, while the face cream is the same, it also contains cosmetics, shampoo, and other products.

How could the Wen family possibly be short of money?

The clothes Wenqin was wearing cost nearly 10 yuan.

If she can spend so much money on a fake product, then she can't afford to buy the real thing at a cheaper price.

"Give me five jars of this brand of face cream. I'm so dark-skinned, I need to use it on my face, neck, and hands. Also, give me two of those powder compacts. I saw that they worked really well for my sister."

"Oh, and give me two of those lipsticks over there, I've never worn lipstick before..."

After Lin Xiaoxiao finished choosing the face products, she started choosing ready-made clothes.

She skipped the ordinary ones and went straight to the counter opposite the most high-end ready-to-wear section.
