School ends on Friday afternoon.
Tomorrow is Qin Ge's coming-of-age birthday party, and Shi Xi hasn't bought him a gift yet.
"Di Shi, after school, will you still follow me?"
She turned to look at the person following behind her. Di Shi had just come to school this afternoon, so his injuries should have healed by now.
"After school, I followed them from the shadows."
"Don't follow me from the shadows. Come with me to buy a gift for Brother Qin today."
"good."
Shi Xi and Di Shi sat in the back seat. "Uncle Zhong, this is my classmate. We're going to the department store to buy some things."
"Yes, miss."
Uncle Zhong is the Shi family's driver, and he picks up and drops Shi Xi off at school every day.
The department store is located on the most luxurious commercial street in the capital. It has everything you could want and is a favorite place for the daughters and wives of the capital's wealthy families.
Half an hour later, Shi Xi and Di Shi stood in front of the department store. The skyscraper was truly tall, incredibly tall.
The commercial street is right next to the financial street, where the headquarters of the Di Group and the four major families are located.
"Let's go inside. I wonder what we should give Brother Qin?"
As Shi Xi walked, she pondered for a moment, then pulled Di Shi's arm and drew him to her side.
"Ashi, don't walk behind me, walk alongside me. Also, could you please stop calling me Miss Shi? We're classmates, we're friends, just call me Xiaoxi."
Looking into the girl's sincere eyes, Indra smiled and said, "Alright, Xiaoxi."
When Shi Xi heard Di Shi call her Xiao Xi, she nodded and smiled, saying, "That's right."
Her smiling face quickly fell, and she frowned.
"Qin doesn't like gold and silver jewelry, pretty clothes, or even bags. So what else can I give her?"
Shi Xi looked at the jewelry store in front of her and decided to go in and take a look, hoping to find something good!
I went around looking for gifts, but there wasn't a single one I liked. Giving gifts is such a headache.
"Let's check out other stores!"
"Tch—you come to our store if you have no money, and I've wasted so much of your time!" The shop assistant following Shi Xi looked at them with disdain and complained.
Their clothes were from brands she couldn't recognize; they were definitely cheap knock-offs. And these two were so young; they certainly didn't have money.
The other shop assistants didn't remind her that although these two people weren't wearing designer brands, their clothes were all custom-made. Being able to afford custom-made clothes isn't something ordinary wealthy people can do.
This guy is new. He's short-sighted and mean-spirited. Nobody in the shop is on good terms with him.
Shi Xi smiled and said, "Auntie, do I have to buy something when I come to your shop? If there's nothing I like here, can't I just not buy anything? Besides, when you first came with us, I told you you didn't need to come with us, that I could look around on my own. But you insisted on coming with us, and now you're blaming me for wasting your time."
"Auntie? You brat, going out with men at such a young age! If you're going to find someone, you should find a rich man. Is this little man next to you even an adult? Can you—ah!"
The shop assistant was kicked a long way by Di Shi and only stopped after hitting the counter.
Indra, radiating hostility, said, "Watch your mouth."
The shop assistant was so frightened that she lay on the ground, too scared to move.
Startled, the store manager hurriedly ran to Di Shi's side and apologized, "I'm sorry, sir and madam, this is a new employee who doesn't know the rules and his words were a bit offensive. Please forgive him."
"Your staff training here isn't up to par, store manager." Shi Xi looked at the store manager in front of her with a professional smile. She wasn't petty enough to hold a grudge against someone over a single comment.
The store manager was about to continue apologizing when a crisp, capable voice came from behind him: "What happened?"
