"Okay, don't be unhappy. I'll accompany you tomorrow to buy that Hermès bag you've always wanted."

Qiao Ya was surprised and delighted: "Really? Don't lie to me, that bag costs tens of thousands of yuan, are you willing to spend it?"

"I can't bear to leave."

Before Qiao Ya could frown, she added with a smile: "But who made you like it? You have to give it up even if you are reluctant."

Qiao Ya's anger turned into joy in an instant, and she happily threw herself into his arms, laughing and cuddling.

…

Early the next morning, Li Shiman asked the driver to drive to the hotel entrance and pick up Shen Mingzhu for morning tea.

Qiao Ya, who was obsessed with Hermès, also got up early. She wanted to go to Aocheng with Zhou Shuhuan to taste the special morning tea. After eating, she went to buy the bag she had longed for. As a result, she happened to see Shen Mingzhu getting into Lai Shiman's car.

"No wonder they don't want to play with me, it turns out they've climbed up the social ladder!"

Qiao Ya stared at the Bentley Mulsanne driving away with a sarcastic look and sneered.

"It's okay, we'll play by ourselves."

"You may think of them as friends, but they may not think so."

"Brother Yang is not that kind of person. Didn't you see that my sister-in-law didn't even bring him? It's probably inconvenient, so there's no need for us to force our way forward."

As a man, Zhou Shuhuan looks at things much more objectively and rationally than Qiao Ya.

Qiao Ya said dissatisfiedly: "Do you think I want to curry favor with her? I just think that one more connection means one more way, which may be useful someday."

This is also one of the reasons why Zhou Shuhuan likes Qiao Ya.

She is always making plans for him and paving the way for his career. He needs such a good wife.

"Be good, I know you're doing this for my own good, but this time we're here to have fun, so put all the unhappy things aside. After we buy the bag, we'll go look at the rings."

With just a few words, Qiao Ya was overjoyed. "I'll listen to you!"

…

The essence of morning tea lies not only in its deliciousness and exquisiteness, but also in its rich and diverse categories.

Freshly baked pineapple buns, crispy egg tarts, steaming barbecued pork buns, shrimp dumplings, rice rolls, and nutritious and delicious seafood porridge. For food lovers, drinking morning tea is simply the ultimate bliss on earth.

Drink tea, chat, taste a variety of delicious food, and spend a leisurely and lazy morning.

After having morning tea, the two did not take a car but walked to the nearby Yaohan.

Yaohan is currently the largest department store in Macau, covering daily necessities, food, jewelry, clothing, electrical appliances, sports and cultural supplies, etc.

The two started shopping from the first floor.

Li Shiman seemed to be a frequent visitor here. Wherever she went, she would receive warm greetings and courtesy from the tellers.

"Is there anything you like? I'll give it to you."

Shen Mingzhu asked: "Are you serious?"

Li Shiman held her arm and smiled, "Well, thank you for coming all the way to bring me those gifts. I like every one of them."

Shen Mingzhu looked up at the department store above her head and said, "I think this mall is pretty good. I like it very much."

After saying that, he looked at the other person expectantly.

"I didn't realize you had quite an appetite!"

Li Shiman pretended to be angry and tapped her nose, then said, "If another ten or eight years pass, maybe I will be able to give it to you, but not now."

Shen Mingzhu was shocked, "I was just kidding."

Li Shiman smiled, "I was just teasing you."

Shen Mingzhu couldn't refuse, so she had to carefully choose the style.

While they were trying on the glasses, the female bodyguard who had been following the two men walked up to Li Shiman and whispered something in her ear. After hearing this, the smile on Li Shiman's face instantly disappeared, and her brows furrowed.

"Mingzhu, I'm sorry, I have something to deal with and can't accompany you."

"It's okay, go ahead and do your work. We'll make an appointment when you're done."

Li Shiman originally wanted to ask her bodyguard to accompany her to continue shopping, but after being politely rejected by Shen Mingzhu, she got up and walked out of the watch shop without any hesitation.

Shen Mingzhu also followed him, preparing to go back to the hotel to meet up with Pei Yang.

While waiting for the driver to come in front of the department store, Li Shiman explained to her: "A valuable piece of jewelry was just lost in the store, and I have to go over to deal with it."

Shen Mingzhu nodded to show her understanding, and tactfully did not ask any more questions, but she heard the other party take the initiative to talk about this matter: "This is the third time. Three pieces of precious jewelry have been lost in less than two months."

No wonder it can cause such a top wealthy woman a headache and annoyance.

A piece of jewelry that can be considered precious is worth at least six or even seven figures. Even if you have a gold mine at home, you cannot afford to waste money in this way.

The car quickly stopped in front of the two of them.

Li Shiman was worried about her going back to the hotel alone, so she asked her to get in the car with her.

The security and environment in Australia are not as good as those in China. A single and beautiful woman from another place can easily be targeted by some criminals.

Nothing happened in the car, so Shen Mingzhu briefly asked about the process of losing the jewelry.

The first time jewelry was lost, it was from a well-known wealthy lady in Macau. She came to the store and asked to see the best jewelry. In this case, the manager would take the person to the VIP room and take out the good goods in the store for the person to choose from as requested.

After selecting, the other party did not buy anything. As a result, when he left and counted the items, he found that some items were missing.

The second time it was another wealthy lady, and the trick was similar to the first time. The manager became alert and stopped the person as soon as he found out that the jewelry was missing.

Naturally, the other party did not admit to the theft and finally called the police, who searched the lady.

The result is predictable. Nothing was found and people were offended instead. It became a very ugly situation. In the end, it was people around Cui Rumao who came to mediate and the other party was willing to give up.

Because of this incident, Li Shiman suffered a lot of criticism and ridicule.

As a result, only half a month after this incident, something was lost in the store again.

The manager had already found a way to keep the customer in the store and was waiting for Li Shiman to make a decision, but Li Shiman was also upset and didn't know how to deal with it.

I want to search him, but I'm worried that it will be like last time, where nothing is found and the matter ends up in a mess.

But if she doesn't take the things back and pays compensation, it's a small matter. The outside world, including the Cui family, will think that she is incompetent and can't even protect her own property.

I don’t know if she was feeling wronged or depressed, but Li Shiman looked very depressed. She no longer had the brightness she had when she was shopping before. There was sadness between her brows and eyes, and she looked quite pitiful and weak.

Shen Mingzhu didn't like to meddle in other people's business, but she couldn't help but show concern when she saw the other person's expression: "If it's convenient, I'll go with you to take a look, although I may not be able to help."

Li Shiman held her hand, with gratitude on her delicate face, "It's okay, I'm glad you're willing to accompany me."

After saying that, he couldn't help but sigh, "When nothing is wrong, there are always all kinds of people around me, but when something really happens to me, there's no one to talk to. Am I a failure in life?"

Shen Mingzhu shook her head. "There are many people who can add icing on the cake, but there is no one who can help you in times of need. In life, it is indeed a blessing to have three or five close friends who support each other, but even if you don't, it doesn't matter much."

“Life is full of suffering, and you can only save yourself. Instead of waiting to be saved by others, it is better to improve yourself and make yourself stronger. The only person you can rely on is yourself.”

Li Shiman looked at her deeply, "I always thought you were special, but I couldn't tell exactly why. Now, I know."

“You have an energy that warms and inspires those around you.”

As they were talking, the car stopped in front of a luxurious jewelry store. (End of this chapter)
