Chapter 169 I need payment for this injustice Part 7

While Runyan was overseeing all the setup and busily arranging things, Su Lin decided to give her some space and pop back in later on.

Runyan had an amazing worth ethic and was brilliant at coming up with practical ideas. But unfortunately, the girl was a total nervous wreck.

Su Lin wanted her to work more independently and build more confidence.

Without a certain amount of confidence and solid self-esteem, little by little inklings of self-deprecation and depression might set in and she didn't want that for her cute bestie.

Su Lin gave Runyan an affectionate nod and signaled that she will be roaming about for a while.

Since she had stepped into this world, Su Lin still didn't get a chance to do this divine activity called shopping at leisure!

And now seemed to be as good as any other time.

Hangzhou city had multiple malls all over the territory and Orange mall, in which their shop was located, was a mid-tier mall with a few high-end shops.

As she was casually strolling around the building, she walked past a men's exclusive store that showcased multiple traditional men's robes with profound looking prints such as bamboo leaves on them.

Su Lin immediately started daydreaming about her handsome hubby and how cool he would look in these different outfits.

And of course, as soon as she thought about her man, her mood immediately became sunny and sparkly and she happily stepped inside to burn away some money.

If not for dressing up her devilishly handsome man, then what else was she earning for.

With a dreamy smile on her lips, Su Lin hummed and started picking out various outfits.

There were so many different styles and varieties of men's clothes that were neatly showcased as far as the eyes could see.

As soon as she saw something looking cute or cool, she immediately wanted to buy it for him.

In her two lives combined Su Lin had never acted like this before, but now, it looked like the tyrannical queen of alchemy was replaced by a giggling teenager in love.

She picked out the robe that she had seen earlier, a long fluttering dark black robe with small and slender bamboo shoots printed on the side.

Just wearing that would make Luther look like an ancient god descended on the planet, like a King with an unfathomably profound noble aura.

With stars in her eyes, Su Lin kept that beautiful piece of fabric aside and cast her eyes on a dark blue suit showcased on one of the mannequins next.

If the previous robe made him look like an immortal cultivator, then this one would make him look a cool and aloof handsome CEO cut off straight from the Korean dramas.

As Su Lin smiled and ended her vivid imagination, her gaze coincidently landed on the almighty price tag.

Damn it! All the things in the shop were famous brands and very expensive! She cursed under her breath.

She still needed to wait for the pristine Imperial Jadeites to be processed and molded into precious jewelry to see an astronomical profit.

And of course, being the money-grubber that she was, she decided to wait and suck out the maximum profit that she could from those jewels.

With a huge sigh and heavy heart, Su Lin decided to just select only a few of the outfits.

"Maybe four or five should be acceptable." She murmured as she calculated the total in her mind.

And just as she reached out her hand to grab the outfit, another hand with a blinding diamond bracelet brashly reached forward and grabbed it instead.

Hmmm… Su Lin frowned at the rude woman, but she silently went for the second piece of that same outfit.

After all, it was a regular branded store, and not a high-end exclusive designer store. So, they didn't just sell one piece of each model.

But the slightly chubby woman didn't understand her magnanimity and dared to snatch that second piece as well.

And she even winked at Su Lin as she did the deed!

"Aya Aya. Isn't this our high school's famous white lotus, Su Lin?!!"

To Su Lin's surprise, the chubby woman who had already signed her death warrant, now even dared to act friendly with her.

Does she know me? Su Lin was confused.

"Hello" Su Lin started to greet her, mostly out of curiosity, but the damn woman again dared to be rude to her and abruptly cut her mid-sentence!

She called for one of the store's salesgirls and loudly remarked. "Pack everything in this model." While talking she even grabbed the robe Su Lin had previously selected and placed on the side. "Oh and pack everything in this model as well."

And then to Su Lin's amusement, she graciously turned towards her and started yapping happily.

"So what are you doing nowadays?"

"Who is this Xuelo, do we know her?" The friend next to Ning Xuelo, Su Lin's supposed high school classmate interjected and excitedly asked her.

"No. No. Madam is too high class for mortals like us. She is the wife of the famous tycoon, Shi Meng."

"What? That Shi Meng? Oh my god. Your husband is so ridiculously handsome. I just saw him on a magazine front page!!" Her friend screeched in an excited tone.

"But, wait, wasn't he in the list of most eligible bachelors??"

"Oops." The chubby woman Ning Xuelo suddenly put on a fake sympathetic expression and quickly corrected herself.

"Oops. I meant to say, ex-wife. Sorry, Lin Lin dear. I shouldn't have forgotten such an important piece of news."

"Everything has an expiry date nowadays. Sorry, dear. Hopefully, your next husband will treat you better."

"More like trash can't stay in a palace for long." The friend next to her snorted.

The two of them started snickering and gossiping with each other completely forgetting Su Lin's presence.
