Chapter 10: The Gloomy Overlord Suffering from Insomnia (10) (2/2)



"It's not like I won't compensate you! What's with your attitude?!" She pointed at the most expensive dress and said, "I'll compensate you!"

"Also, I want to try that one!"

She pulled the card out of her bag.

"Pay together!"

The clerk laughed and swiped his card at the front desk.

By the way, enter the price of the store's treasure.

"drop--"

"Payment is successful."

Ji Xiaolian felt a pang of pain when she looked at the printed statement.

These few days are all her savings.

But she immediately put on an arrogant look and said she was not in the mood.

After the card was successfully swiped, the clerk's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees and he bowed and returned the card to Ji Xiaolian.

"Please wait a moment, Miss. I will help you get your clothes!"

"Someone come!"

"Quickly, take this—" He glanced at the signature on the payment slip, "Miss Ji, to the VIP room!"

Ji Xiaolian looked around proudly.

The pain I felt when I paid the bill just now disappeared in an instant.

*

At night, the old merchant house.

Ji Xiaolian and Bai Fengyu walked into the banquet hall hand in hand.

She glanced at everyone with a haughty air.

But I didn't get the "huge star" and stunning looks that I had imagined, and I felt a little unhappy.

He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Bai Fengyu.

It must be because his business status is not high enough that he is ignored.

Bai Fengyu didn't notice her "disdain".

He glanced around.

I didn’t see Shang Zeyan.

I guess he hasn't arrived yet.

"Listen." He tilted his head to Ji Xiaolian and said, "Don't you know Shang Zeyan very well?"

"When he comes later, think of a way to irritate him and make him lose control of his emotions."

Shareholders of the merchant group and business partners will all be present today.

What if Shang Zeyan embarrassed himself in front of so many people?

As a CEO, his mental state is unstable.

Who can trust to cooperate with him?

That piece of land in the eastern suburbs must belong to his Bai family!

By then, the old man in the family will definitely look up to me and hand the Bai family over to him with confidence.

The more Bai Fengyu thought about it, the more proud he became.

Ji Xiaolian opened her eyes wide, her face full of horror.

"This cocktail party...Shang Zeyan will also come?!"

Bai Fengyu frowned and looked at her, "This is the old house of a merchant, if he doesn't come, who will come?"

Ji Xiaolian was shocked and looked around.

Is this an old merchant's house?!

She immediately backed out.

In her previous life, she had no chance to come to this old merchant's house.

Firstly, Shang Zeyan's stepmother looked down on her and was on guard against her, so how could she let her come to this old house?

Secondly, Shang Zeyan felt very insecure and usually didn't let her go out, let alone bring her to show her in front of so many relatives.

That is simply impossible.

So, she didn't recognize it just now.

Bai Fengyu is such a fool, why didn’t he tell her earlier!

If she knew this was Shang Zeyan's cocktail party, she would never come!

Now that I'm old, I still have to find a way to avoid him!

Ji Xiaolian was very worried.

He quickly dragged Bai Fengyu to an inconspicuous corner of the party, covering his face with his hands from time to time.

"Don't worry," Bai Fengyu wanted to laugh when he saw her thief-like appearance. "You are just a nanny of Shang Zeyan. He doesn't care about anyone, let alone a servant like you. He will definitely not remember you."

"Besides, no one knows about your betrayal of him."

Ji Xiaolian glared at him angrily.

Thought.

What do you know?

As long as Shang Zeyan sees her, he will never let her leave.

How come this person has no sense of crisis?

She rolled her eyes secretly.

At this moment, the door of the banquet hall opened and two people came in hand in hand.

Ji Xiaolian heard a series of neat inhalations.

Many people also uttered small exclamations.

She frowned and looked at him.
