Chapter 777: Snagging a Rich Husband
Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation
Ye Lengan was unaware of Zhou Cuians complex feelings; she simply shook her head. No need to try, just help me wrap them up!
Zhou Cuian didnt say anything further. She directly took the bags Ye Lengan had indicated to the counter.
Ye Lengan was decisive, pulling out her card to pay the bill. After bidding farewell to Zhou Cuian, she left her address for delivery and departed.
Watching Ye Lengans carefree departure, Zhou Cuians expression was complex, blending joy, envy, and a hint of burgeoning desire.
Although both were students at Capital University and even shared the same dormitory, their fates were starkly different. Ye Lengan casually splurged hundreds of thousands on bags while Zhou Cuian found herself serving like a maid. This brewed a hint of dissatisfaction within her.
Simultaneously, she yearned for such a life free from worries about tuition or living expenses, able to browse luxury stores without price constraints.
As soon as Ye Lengan left, the salespeople swarmed in. One experienced colleague spoke up sarcastically, Oh, Xiao Zhou, I bet you made quite a profit from that sale! Probably tens of thousands, if not more. Even if you dont treat us to dinner, at least afternoon tea!
Zhou Cuian snapped back to reality. Seeing her colleagues gathering around, she smiled and agreed. Alright, Ill treat you all to afternoon tea. What would you like?
She could tell their envy stemmed from Ye Lengans commission. Despite being a part-time job with a few days left, she planned to continue. Thus, she opted to maintain good relations to avoid future repercussions. Plus, her commission today was significant; treating them to tea was only a fraction of it.
Hearing Zhou Cuians words, everyones mood lightened, and they began discussing what to eat.
One colleague sighed, Xiao Zhou, your friend is truly wealthy! Spending over a hundred thousand on bags without hesitation. And did you see the Patek Philippe in her hand? Conservatively estimating, her spending today will surpa.s.s a million.
Zhou Cuians eyebrows twitched. Really? How do you figure?
Dont doubt it, the colleague retorted, irked by Zhou Cuians disbelief. Didnt you notice? She left her address for delivery. She probably visited multiple stores beforehand, all with home deliveries. Clearly, shes spent quite a bit already. Plus, she looks like shes going to continue shopping. So, her spending today must be over a million.
With a hint of superiority, she continued, Xiao Zhou, this is a fundamental skill for us salespeople! Keep at it, and youll develop this discernment too.
Zhou Cuian smiled but remained silent.
Unfazed by Zhou Cuians lack of response, the colleague continued, But, Xiao Zhou! Having such a friend is definitely beneficial for you. Stay on her good side and see if you can attend those upper-cla.s.s events with her. At those events, if you manage to snag a wealthy husband, youll be set for life.
With that, the crowd began to jest. But for Zhou Cuian, those words planted a seed of contemplation.
Meanwhile, Ye Lengan seemed much relieved after spending the day shopping.
Upon returning to the villa, most of her purchases had been delivered and piled up in the living room.
Sister Li had received many deliveries but refrained from organizing them without Ye Lengans consent. Seeing Ye Lengan return, she sought instructions on handling the goods.
Ye Lengan reclined on the sofa, waving her hand nonchalantly. Just put them in the utility room for now. Ill sort them out when I have the time.
With Ye Lengans directive, Sister Li began tidying up the living room.
As she did, Huangfu Ruiling strolled in from outside.
Sometimes, Huangfu Ruiling stayed overnight at the villa, though they occupied separate rooms. Despite Ye Lengans mature mentality, she was still young in this life.
No matter how uncontrollable Huangfu Ruiling might be, he would never cross any boundaries with her. Of course, he also couldnt bring himself to harm her.
The two of them would usually hug and kiss each other, but as for deeper communication, it hadnt happened yet, at least for the time being.
Hence, Huangfu Ruilings fingerprints and facial features were recorded, granting him easy access to the villa.
Seeing the piled-up bags in the living room, Huangfu Ruiling raised an eyebrow and sat beside Ye Lengan. Feeling down?
This was clearly Ye Lengans spree. Such extravagant shopping likely aimed to lift her spirits.
Im alright, just a bit restless, Ye Lengan replied, shaking her head. You know, Ive been trying to break through to the DemiG.o.d Stage these past few days. But for some reason, Im always a little short.
Frustrated, she refrained from further cultivation to avoid adverse effects.
