Chapter 14 Look Down

  • In front of the supermarket.
  • Shen Zhuoman’s gorgeous figure had attracted countless attention to her. In just a few short minutes, there were already three men that tried their luck to strike up a conversation with her.
  • She was wearing a flowery T with a pure white jacket, along a pencil white skirt that exposed her long legs. Her supermodel-like body had made all the men’s eyes lit up.
  • As Su Yimo’s classmate and best friend, the moment she saw Su Yimo coming in from the distance and a man following her, she was so shocked that her jaw dropped.
  • After Su Yimo got married for the past three years, she had only seen the legendary matrilocal man during their wedding. But her friend brought him out today!
  • Were her eyes playing tricks on her?
  • “What happened? Why do you look so shocked?” When Su Yimo got closer, she asked Shen Zhuoman with a smile.
  • Shen Zhuoman pulled Su Yimo aside and asked with a low voice, “Yimo, is this the legendary Han Jingru, or am I mistaken?”
  • Almost everyone in Yun city had more all less heard his name. Even if they hadn’t seen Han Jingru’s real face, what happened three years ago was too much of a hype and that made him some sort of ‘celebrity’. In addition to Su Ruijin’s personal attempt to stir and badmouth the man, even the commoners knew about that.
  • “Yeah.” Su Yimo nodded.
  • When Shen Zhuoman got Su Yimo’s confirmation, she was even more shocked. When Su Yimo got married back then, she was just dejected and sorrowful. Her friend grieved for her as well. Even after three years, people continued to make fun of their marriage.
  • “Are you crazy? Why are you bringing him?” Syndrome and said.
  • Su Yimo knew that her friend cares about her very much. But now that she had accepted Han Jingru as her husband and she decided to face her true feelings, she felt that she should start to let Han Jingru blend into her life.
  • “I am not crazy. And you will be seeing him more often in the future.” Su Yimo said.
  • “You… You… Don’t tell me, you have accepted him?” Others might thought that Shen Zhuoman was listening to a horror story. Her face was filled with terror. Meeting him often? Did that mean Su Yimo would be bringing him out all the time?
  • Su Yimo nodded unhesitantly and said, “Not completely, but I am trying my very best.”
  • Shen Zhuoman gave her an eye roll. When she was about to say something, she swallowed back her words.
  • “Whatever, as long as you are happy! Because you are my best friend!” Shen Zhuoman cheered.
  • The woman stole a look at Han Jingru and she was a little surprised. If she ignored the fact that the man was a matrilocal husband, he did look pleasant. At the very least, he had quite the attractive look and he had a very special charm to him. Regrettably, he had the worst reputation.
  • After the three went inside the shopping mall, the two women started their ‘hard mode’. They wasn’t really shopping but they had been visiting every single shop and tried out every single clothes they had their eyes on.
  • Han Jingru was patient as well. Since it was the first time he shopped with Su Yimo, the man was in a cheery mood.
  • Whenever Shen Zhuoman changed into something provocative, she would pay special attention towards Han Jingru. The woman was completely confident with her body and face. She would have almost too many men courting her whenever she gets out. Since men are guided by their sight, she believed that Han Jingru wouldn’t be an exception.
  • However, after a few try, Shen Zhuoman noticed that Han Jingru would only smile whenever Su Yimo changed into something new. As for her… He didn’t cast another look.
  • Could that person have an impaired taste? How could he not show any reaction or impulses towards a beauty like her!?
  • Shen Zhuoman just couldn’t believe it and she purposely chose a very sexy, skintight dress. Insinuating her body perfectly. Not only that, she purposely did a catwalk in front of Han Jingru.
  • “Can you help me to take a look, does it look nice on me?” Shen Zhuoman said.
  • Han Jingru examined her from head to toe and she had quite the gorgeous body figure, curving at all the right places. The man nodded in approval, “It looks great.”
  • Right after he said that, he averted his eyes back to Su Yimo and made not a second delay on her.
  • Shen Zhuoman self-proclaimed that she knew men all too well. When she saw Han Jingru’s gaze towards her, she didn’t see the slightest bit of lust. His eyes were gleaming in serenity and it was inimitable.
  • Finally, Shen Zhuoman was assured with her conclusion, that Han Jingru definitely had an impaired taste towards beauty. In another word, he wouldn’t be able to differentiate between ugly and pretty.
  • At that time, there were a man and woman that walked into the shop. The woman had a salacious body while the man was huge. He is somewhat fatty and wearing a very thick gold necklace that screamed his wealth.
  • The moment the woman entered the shop, she simply pointed her fingers at the clothes she liked. She didn’t even try it out and simply got her shopping assistant to pack it up.
  • “I will be taking that as well.” the woman pointed at the dress Su Yimo was holding as she was on the way to the dressing room. And Su Yimo was a little taken aback when she snatched it away.
  • Most of the time, the assistant shopper would show fawning favor towards generous clients like that. As for Su Yimo, she had been trying quite a few dresses already and she showed no intention to buy. Therefore, the assistant shopper paid no attention to Su Yimo.
  • “Noted.”
  • “What’s going on? My friend has her hand on the dress already!” Before Su Yimo said anything, Shen Zhuoman fumed and glared at the assistant shopper angrily.
  • The indelicate lady raised her chin and scoffed tauntingly, “I never try out the clothes I buy. It is because of people like you that tries them on make them dirty. How annoying!”
  • “Isn’t it just normal to try out the dress we want to buy? If we don’t do so, how can we know if it suits us or not?” Shen Zhuoman rebuked her.
  • “Unsuitable?” The woman chuckled, “Just throw it away if it is unsuitable. Women shop because they want to experience the feeling of spending money. Oh, forgive me, I’m afraid you wouldn’t be able to understand that.”
  • Shen Zhuoman was fuming in anger already.
  • At that time, Su Yimo said, “I want to buy this piece of dress.”
  • That woman leered at Su Yimo and harrumphed scornfully, “Ask the shopkeeper, if she is selling it to you or me?”
  • After saying that, she looked at the assistant shopper and said, “If you sell this to her, I will not trouble you for all those clothes that you have packed for me.”
  • The assistant shopper said unhesitantly, “This miss was the one that wanted to buy first. Why not you go look for another dress?”
  • “Can you not be such an ass? She is your customer and so are we!” Shen Zhuoman said in frustration.
  • The assistant shopper’s lips curled up and she answered with a smile, “I’m afraid if we were to compare, you aren’t able to match this young lady’s purchase power.”
  • The moment the crude lady heard that, she laughed conceitedly and said, “Stop embarrassing yourself. Before you do that, you should check your bank account, and see if you can compete with me!”
  • At that time, the man with the thick gold necklace walked towards his woman and then growled, “Why are you wasting our time like this? Don’t you know money makes the world go around? Do you have enough? If you have, bring it out and let’s find out who have more!”
  • Shen Zhuoman’s face turned grim. That indecent lady looked just like a mistress or even prostitute. She couldn’t swallow her anger of getting stepped on by a person like that. But she knew that her finance was nothing in comparison with that tycoon.
  • Although Su Yimo came from the Su family, she had been taking salaries like the employees and she wasn’t wealthy either. Although now that she got promoted to be the project supervisor, it was just a few days and that hadn’t brought her any wealth yet.
  • “You…”
  • Before Su Yimo finished, Han Jingru stood up suddenly and said, “Are you selling that to whoever buys more?”
  • The tycoon looked at Han Jingru in deride, “What now? Do you want to challenge me?”
  • Su Yimo hurried towards Han Jingru and said with a soft voice, “Jingru, don’t get taunted by them.”
  • She didn’t want Han Jingru to let anger get the better of him. It was obvious that the tycoon was wealthy and they just couldn’t match him.
  • However, Han Jingru simply told Su Yimo gently, “As long as you like it, I will make sure you get it.”
  • Su Yimo could hear the determination in Han Jingru’s tone and the woman was lost in thought. It was just like the previous time when Han Jingru sent her the text, or when he said that the grandmother would visit them personally. The woman had always chosen to believe Han Jingru. And at that very moment, Su Yimo was feeling the same.
  • Shen Zhuoman didn’t feel that Han Jingru have enough money to compare with that tycoon and she walked towards Han Jingru and reminded him, “Stop acting in impulses. Are you trying to challenge him with your wealth? Just let it go.”
  • “Young lad, I advise you to listen to your friend. Otherwise you will just bring shame to yourself!” The tycoon said smugly.
  • The curvaceous woman showed little interest when she saw the handsome man. Unfortunately he looked like a poor man and that did not fit her criteria of partner.
  • “Why not you shoo these troublemakers away? If they ruin my mood, I might not be shopping in your shop anymore!” The seductive woman said to the assistant shopper.
  • The woman didn’t want to lose her sales and she decided to offend Han Jingru’s group.
  • “May I ask you to leave? We do not welcome you.” The assistant shopper spoke towards Han Jingru.
  • “Let me get everything from your shop. But you have to chase these two pests out from here.” Han Jingru replied.
  • The moment Su Yimo heard that, she drew a deep breath.
  • Everything!? It would cost a fortune. How could Han Jingru have so much money?
  • “Jingru, are you out of your mind? Do you even know how much these costs?” Su Yimo said hurriedly.
  • Shen Zhuoman also felt that Han Jingru had gotten crazy. He was just a matrilocal husband, even if he had saved up himself, he wouldn’t be able to have so much money!
  • When the tycoon heard that, he laughed loudly, “Sure, and let me see how you pay the bill. If you can really take out so much money, I will climb out this shop on all four myself, how does it sound?”
  • The woman beside him broke into a giggle as well and she looked at Han Jingru like the biggest joke, “I have never seen someone like you, so poor yet so prideful! Do you always bluff like that?”
  • The assistant shopper did not believe that Han Jingru could afford that as well. She had seen a lot of wealthy people and she just couldn’t relate Han Jingru as a rich person.
  • “We just did our stock check today. If you want to buy everything, we don’t need to count, the total is forty-six thousand eight hundred. Let me give you a special discount and I’ll personally pay for the eight hundred, how does it sound?” Assistant shopper scoffed.
  • Han Jingru simply sneered, “Please register all of the sales under her account.”
  • He pointed towards another assistant shopper. The younger girl had not once shown a scornful expression or looked down on them.
  • When Han Jingru walked towards the counter, Su Yimo and Shen Zhuoman were just nervous. When the tycoon and his partner saw how confident Han Jingru was, they were high strung as well.
  • Could he really afford it?
  • DAMN!
  • I GAVE MY BANKCARD TO ZHONG JI!!!
