Chapter 5 The Stiff and Old-Fashioned Young Lady



"Shopkeeper, how about this? You sell me this bracelet, and once the other one is finished, you can give it to the buyer who pre-ordered it?"

"This..." The manager looked distressed; how could he possibly make this decision?

"What, is it not okay?" Xiao Chong'an also thought Wu Yue's suggestion was feasible. It was just a bracelet, what was there to be so conflicted about?

"To be honest, I really can't make this decision. This bracelet was actually ordered by our boss. She personally selected the material and style. If we were to exchange it rashly, it would definitely be discovered."

"In that case, let's just forget about it." Xiao Chong'an was getting impatient and made the decision directly.

Anyway, there are still so many bracelets left, why not just choose something else?

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Wu Yue felt extremely aggrieved.

Isn't Xiao Chong'an the second young master of the Xiao family? How come he can't even get her a bracelet she likes? She couldn't help but start to doubt whether she should still try to marry him.

Xiao Chong'an couldn't have imagined Wu Yue's thoughts. Seeing that she remained silent for a long time, he asked, "Wu Yue, what else do you like? Pick another one."

"Then let's go with the green one over there."

"Okay, shopkeeper, has no one booked this in advance?"

"Of course, I'll wrap them up for you two right now."

The emerald green bracelet was carefully wrapped and placed in a heavy, antique wooden box.

"Miss, please take this."

The box in her hand was quite heavy. Wu Yue gradually calmed down and smiled again.

"Xiao Chong'an, thank you. Let's look around some more."

The two walked side by side toward the door.

Suddenly, two figures appeared in front of them, walking straight towards them.

"Huh?" Xiao Chong'an asked with obvious surprise. "Isn't that my brother? Why isn't he in the shop? Why is he out strolling around?"

Hearing his words, Wu Yue looked over curiously.

She had long been curious about this young master of the Xiao family. It was said that he took over the Xiao family's business eight years ago and became the real person in charge, and he was not even thirty years old yet.

Under his leadership, the Xiao family became the wealthiest family in Haicheng, and he was also the undisputed leader of the Chamber of Commerce.

However, there are also many unpleasant rumors about this Mr. Xiao, such as that he is impotent.

Otherwise, how could such a young and promising man not only remain unmarried, but also have no scandals?

It is said that Mr. and Mrs. Xiao have no choice but to give up on letting him get married.

It was precisely for this reason that Wu Yue set her sights on Xiao Chong'an. If Xiao Chongye never married, wouldn't all of the Xiao family's vast wealth be inherited by Xiao Chong'an's descendants?

Once she successfully marries Xiao Chong'an, wouldn't all of this be hers? As for that legendary fiancée, she's just unlucky.

We live in a new era where arranged marriages are no longer the norm. There's absolutely nothing wrong with pursuing your own happiness.

As Wu Yue thought this, a determined expression appeared on her face.

However, as Xiao Chongye approached, the smile on her face gradually faded.

Can anyone tell her why Xiao Chongye, who is said to be celibate, has a woman as beautiful as a fairy by his side?

Moreover, this young master Xiao was not at all the fierce and menacing person she had imagined.

On the contrary, he was very handsome, not at all inferior to Xiao Chong'an. In fact, because of his success in his career, he also had the aura of a superior.

For a young girl, a man like Xiao Chongye is simply fatally attractive, and Wu Yue was no exception.

However, even when she deliberately looked away, she couldn't ignore the woman next to her.

A woman as beautiful as an angel, wearing an old-fashioned cheongsam, did not look old at all; on the contrary, she exuded a classical charm.

Her arched eyebrows were slightly furrowed, her misty almond eyes were captivating, her upturned nose was delicate and graceful, and her cherry-like lips were slightly pouting, as if she was angry with someone.

Not only Wu Yue, but Xiao Chong'an next to her was also stunned.

At that moment, he had only one thought in his mind: there was such an extraordinary and beautiful woman in the world.

Who is she? What is her relationship with my older brother? In an instant, many thoughts popped into his mind.
