Chen Jin's good mood vanished instantly. Why? Why did she, who had everything, not have these luxury items? Why did Bi Qiaoan, an orphan, have so many good things? She knew that bag cost five figures, and that gold bracelet couldn't possibly be less than five figures.
Where did Bi Qiaoan's money come from? It couldn't have been something she already had. The clothes and things she usually wears and uses are only slightly better than the average person, not enough to afford luxury goods.
The answer is obvious: Bi Qiaoan must have done something shameful, no wonder she didn't come home last night!
Chen Jin concealed the jealousy in his eyes and looked up, saying, "Where did Qiao An go last night? It's the first time she hasn't come home all night. We were all very worried."
I clearly told you I was home, but you still insist on accusing me of not coming home overnight. You say nice things, but I was really worried you didn't tell me last night.
"You're home, huh? Didn't we talk about it on the phone last night?" Bi Qiaoan wasn't angry. "Say what you will. What else can you do?"
"Look at me, I forgot after taking a nap!" Chen Jin laughed, not embarrassed at all. "Qiao An, where do you live?"
This is still not giving up. I don't know what the point is of being so obsessed with knowing about my family situation!
"Qingyu Residential Area." Qingyu Residential Area is very famous in Shanghai. It is a high-end residential area built in recent years. It has not only seven or eight apartment buildings, but also more than twenty ordinary residential buildings, as well as a small area of villas and a whole mountain of garden scenic area. Bi Qiaoan's house is the largest in terms of area among the ordinary residential buildings. There are only two such houses in the entire community.
Chen Jin gasped upon hearing this. Damn it, even owning an apartment in Qingyu Community is a remarkable thing!
Chen Jin quickly recovered, "That's a famous upscale neighborhood, you're really amazing!"
"It's nothing but the protection of their parents!"
"Qiao An, I remember your parents passed away a long time ago. Do you still have enough money to squander?" Chen Jin said in a tone that sounded like he was doing it for your own good and was disappointed in you.
Before Bi Qiaoan could react, Song Wenuan objected, "Ajin, how can you talk like that? How can you reopen old wounds?"
"I just noticed that Qiao An was wearing two luxury items today, and I was a little worried that she might have gone the wrong way," Chen Jin said, sounding aggrieved.
Oh!
Song Wenwen was taken aback. What did that mean?
Jiang Shanshan interjected, "What do you mean? Explain yourself clearly."
“Qiao An’s bag is a limited edition Gune, worth five figures. I don’t know about the bracelet on her wrist, but it probably isn’t cheap either,” Chen Jin said, seizing the opportunity. “That’s why I wanted to ask about Qiao An’s family situation. After all, Qiao An is an orphan like me, and there are so many temptations out there…”
Damn, they're smearing people while trying to create a persona for themselves!
“Qiao An…” Song Wenwen was stunned, not knowing what to say, staring at Bi Qiao An as if she wanted to say something but stopped herself.
Bi Qiaoan smiled and said, "Well, with my parents' help, I can still afford it."
"You can't spend money like this, Qiao An. This habit of yours isn't good. You don't have any income, and you spend money like this every day. Even if you had a lot of money, how could you last for months? You weren't this extravagant before, why the sudden change..."
What a caring older sister! How could I be so immature? Am I extravagant and materialistic, or did I suddenly become rich?
Bi Qiaoan was too lazy to chat with Chen Jin anymore. "My fiancé came back last night and brought me a gift."
"Damn it, Bi Qiaoan, you actually have a fiancé? You've been hiding this from us for so long! Tell us who he is!" Jiang Shanshan couldn't help but swear.
"That's right, that's right, God is so unfair! Some girls are just twenty-year-old buds and they already have fiancés, while I'm a twenty-three or twenty-four-year-old young woman and I'm still single." Song Wenwen covered her chest, pretending to be heartbroken, but her eyes were full of laughter.
“I didn’t deliberately hide it. We’re childhood sweethearts. He’s always been abroad.” Bi Qiaoan didn’t go into details. If it weren’t for the fact that they would be spending several more months together and inevitably run into Shen Yanming, Bi Qiaoan wouldn’t have given this much information.
After hearing this, Chen Jin wondered if he had made it up to avoid being questioned about the source of the luxury goods. But then he thought that such a lie was too easy to expose, so it must be true.
Chen Jin wondered to himself, "Abroad? Is it for studying or working? If I study abroad, my family has some capital; if I work, I should have saved some money over the past few years."
Chen Jin felt a pang of jealousy; it seemed like Xiao Fei had better prospects.
Then, Chen Jin comforted herself, thinking that Xiao Fei was good-looking and capable, and would be able to afford those luxury goods in less than a year. Thinking this way, Chen Jin felt a little better.
Chen Jin watched Bi Qiaoan lying on the bed scrolling through her phone, and curled her lip. She thought, "We're both orphans, so yours probably isn't some big shot either, otherwise she would have broken off the engagement long ago."
After a moment's thought, Chen Jin spoke up, "I'm going on a date with Xiao Fei, so I won't be having lunch with you guys."
"Go ahead, go ahead, cultivate your relationship!" Jiang Shanshan raised her eyebrows and winked suggestively.
Chen Jin waved his hand, gave a smug smile, and went out.
While Bi Qiaoan began her boring senior year, Shen Yanming excitedly went on a shopping spree in Times Square.
First, I bought new spring and summer clothes for Bi Qiaoan. I bought anything that looked good. In no time, I had more than a dozen shopping bags.
I went to the same lingerie store I visited yesterday and asked the same sales assistant to help me choose a few sets of women's underwear. After packing them up, I put them all in my car.
Shen Yanming wanted to buy shoes for Bi Qiaoan, but shoes can't be bought without trying them on. Oh well, he'll wait until he and Qiaoan come together another day.
Shen Yanming bought some clothes for himself. The previous ones were all formal wear prepared for work, which made him look too mature. He was already eight years older than Bi Qiaoan, so Shen Yanming decided to buy some clothes that would make him look younger.
After loading more than a dozen shopping bags into the car, Shen Yanming drove back satisfied.
As Shen Yanming approached an intersection, a red light stopped his car. He looked up and saw that the countdown timer showed 115 seconds left. The light had just turned red, and there was still time. Shen Yanming looked around and noticed that the streets seemed slightly different from his memories of his previous life.
That is...
At the intersection, Cai Chun and a beautiful woman sat facing each other through the glass window of a coffee shop. It was clear that Cai Chun treated the woman with great respect.
Who is that woman? She looks familiar...
Shen Yanming decided to drive over and take a look. When the green light came on, Shen Yanming stopped outside the coffee shop window.
Shen Yanming's car is very low-key; he bought it specifically for daily driving because he doesn't want to attract too much attention. Cai Chun had never seen this car before, and with the windows tinted, it was really difficult to recognize who was inside unless you got close.
Shen Yanming stared at the two people for more than ten minutes before he finally remembered that when he first started working, he attended a party where a girl kept getting close to him and insisted on getting his contact information.
Shen Yanming was thoroughly annoyed that day and left in a hurry. Shen Yanming recalled that the woman's surname seemed to be Wei.
Wei? Could this be the Miss Wei who secretly bribed Cai Chun?
