“Wanwan, have you taken a liking to this skirt?” the old Lady Huo asked.

Su Wenwen hurriedly denied, “No, not at all.”

Old Lady Huo nodded and said, “Shop assistant, wrap up all the other clothes except for this one, in size M.”

Su Wanwan was scared stiff and quickly restrained the old lady, “Grandma, I don’t need to buy so many clothes.”

“This is too much? It’s the changing of the seasons, the more autumn clothes, the better. And besides, it’s grandma’s first time shopping with you, must buy more.” Old Lady Huo shrugged it off, and after paying, she quickly dragged her to the next shop.

It was a top luxury brand store, nothing inside was priced below five figures. “Wanwan, I see you always use the same bag, don’t you like the one that Mingzhu gave you last time? Then you can look here, is there one you like?” Su Wanwan, learning from her experience, hastily picked up a blue handbag from the display case, “This one, I like this bag!”

Just to buy this one, in case the old lady wastes more money, who knew…

“So Wanwan likes blue.” Old Lady Huo said, and with a wave of her hand, with the air of a queen directing her kingdom, “Shop assistant, wrap up all the blue bags in the store.”

Su Wanwan was close to crying, “Grandma, I don’t need that many bags.” “What girl doesn’t like bags, what’s that TV saying again, a bag cures all ailments?”

Su Wanwan:

Old lady, you’re really trending, knowing about a bag cures all ailments!

After paying, Old Lady Huo dragged her to a shoe store, “Wanwan, do you want to look at shoes…”

Before she could finish, Su Wanwan immediately said, “No need, grandma, I have a lot of shoes, all at home, I can’t even wear them all, really no need to buy more.”

This time, Old Lady Huo couldn’t possibly buy them all, right? Unexpectedly…

“So Wanwan likes collecting shoes like Mingzhu?” Old Lady Huo had an idea now, and said, “Shop assistant, wrap up all the new women’s shoes for me!” Su Wanwan:

Critical situation!

Mingzhu giggles, whispers into her ear, “No worries, it’s always this way with my mother-in-law. When I first married into the Huo family, she made me into a shopaholic.”

Su Wanwan:

Rich Grandma, please spend rationally!

Frighteningly more extravagant than the spendthrift Mo Xiaose, she’s on a pace to bring the entire shopping mall home.

The salespeople in the shop were ecstatic, as expected of the richest matron of Nancheng. Every time she sweeps through the streets she brings in more revenue than they see in several years.

While the salespeople were excitedly wrapping things up and making receipts… “Wanwan?”

Su Wanwan looked up and saw Qiao Zixin walk in from outside with a friend. Qiao Zixin instantly recognized the Old Lady of the Huo Family and the second lady, she hurriedly greeted them with a smile, “Hello, old lady, Mrs. Huo, I’m Wanwan’s cousin, my name is Qiao Zixin, and I work nearby.” After speaking, she looked at the mountain of shopping bags beside her, “What a coincidence, Mrs. Huo also likes the shoes from this shop?”

Mingzhu glanced at her, “Oh, Mother bought them for Wanwan.”

Qiao Zixin was quite taken aback, “Old Lady Huo is really good to Wanwan.” Almost the entire floor is filled with international luxury brands, and the shoes from this store are expensive as hell, is Old Lady Huo really buying so many for Su Wanwan?

But wasn’t there a recent rumor that Huo Jingshen had a mistress and an illegitimate child in the UK?

Could it be…it’s to make up for Su Wanwan?

That should be it.

Qiao Zixin comforted herself in her heart, but…

She just couldn’t help from going crazily jealous!

What gives?

Why does this stupid girl get to have such nice things!

“Of course, Wanwan is my granddaughter-in-law, who else would I treat nicely if not her?” Old Lady Huo beamed, and after speaking, she clapped her hands “Oh, I bought this jewelry, clothes, bags, and shoes, what am I missing?” Qiao Zixin got jealous the more she heard, jewelry, clothes, bags, and shoes were all bought? And you still want to buy more?

Ah, makeup, let’s go look at cosmetics downstairs…”

Su Wenwen blurted out, “No need to look, grandma!”

“What happened?” Old Lady Huo was stunned.

“I…am hungry.”

Old Lady Huo laughed, checked the time “Almost six o’clock, alright then, let’s go have dinner.”

Su Wenwen could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

“Old Lady Huo.” Qiao Zixin eagerly said, “I know a good place for Shanghai cuisine upstairs, would you like to…”

“Miss Qiao.” Old Lady Huo looked at her, politely said, “Sorry, we’re going to dinner first, you continue shopping.”

After she finished speaking, she didn’t wait for an answer, simply left with Su Wenwen.

As they entered the elevator, Mingzhu suddenly asked, “Wanwan, is Ms. Qiao really your cousin? How old is she this year?”

Su Wanwan nodded, “She should be twenty-five.”

“Is she married?” Mingzhu questioned again.

“No.”

Mingzhu chuckled, “Your cousin is no simple person. Stay away from her.”

Su Wanwan glanced at her.

Goodness, her aunt looked simple and warm, but who knew she had such shrewd eyes?

Mingzhu noticed her disbelief but just being an outsider, she could only hint so much. “Just remember my words.”

She was Ming family’s precious daughter, and since her childhood, she had seen the dramas played by women in affluent families who fought to climb the social ladder. She considered herself an expert judge of a person’s character. Qiao Zixin, who they had just met, may look average; even her dressing style was not impressive. But the desire in her eyes was too explicit.

As soon as she walked in, she greeted her and the older lady but kept glancing at the shopping bags. When she learned the abundance of things the old lady bought for Wanwan, she almost twisted her fingers into pretzels out of jealousy.

After Lady Huo finished checking out, the sales associates at the boutique were still busily packing and arranging home deliveries.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Zixin clenched her fists tightly to the point of almost piercing her palms with her nails.

“Zixin,” a colleague said excitedly, “You’re related to the Huo Family! Why didn’t you join us for dinner just now?”

All Qiao Zixin could do was pretend she was indifferent, “What’s so good about it. We’re one family and there are plenty of opportunities to have a meal together. I just needed to get home early today.”

She wanted to join them for dinner, but the old lady was quick with her words not giving her any chance, and she didn’t want to shamelessly impose.

The colleague spoke again, “Next time you have a meal or attend any event with the Huo Family, can you take me with you?”

“For what?”

The colleague dreamily responded, “The Huo Family is the richest in Nancheng. I may have a chance to meet some members of their family! If any of them takes a liking to me, won’t I be as lucky as your cousin and rise in status? Ah, Zixin, Zixin, don’t go!”

As Qiao Zixin hurriedly walked away, her face was twisted beyond recognition.

A gentleman from the Huo Family?

Huo Jingshen?

Ever since she was threatened by Mo Weiyi, she had suppressed her admiration for him. But just seeing Su Wanwan now, the restlessness started to surface again.

Jealousy was driving her mad!

Madam Huo chose a Cantonese restaurant.

After they ordered the food, she started the conversation, “Wanwan, how have you been adjusting since school started?”

Su Wanwan nodded, “I’ve been adjusting well.”

“Is the coursework tough?”

“It’s manageable.”

“Is your dormitory comfortable?”

“Comfortable.”

Wait!

Su Wanwan was suddenly alert.

How does the old lady know she’s staying in a dormitory?

She never mentioned it, did she?

Something was fishy!

Sure enough, the old lady continued, “Despite the dormitory’s comfort, it’s not hke home. Education is important, of course, but don’t ignore everything else. As a grandmother, I’d like you to bless me with a great-grandchild sooner rather than later…”

“Cough, cough!” Su Wanwan choked on her tea, coughing nonstop.

Mingzhu hurriedly handed her a napkin, “Mom, times have changed. Wanwan

is only twenty and still a kid. What’s the rush?”

But Madam Huo was insistently optimistic, “Twenty is fine. Younger bodies recover quicker. Wanwan is beautiful, and my grandson Ashen is handsome.

Their kids can only be smart and beautiful. Be it a boy or a girl, I will love them equally…”

“Grandma.” Su Wanwan quickly stood up, making a motion of refilling tea in the teapot. “Let me pour you some more water.”

You must be thirsty after talking so much, cough, cough.

Soon, a waiter came in again, “Madam Huo, should we begin serving the food

or…”

“Give us a second, let me see where they are,” Madam Huo said while checking her cell phone.

Su Wanwan was taken aback. Who else was joining them for dinner?

“What? You’re at the door? Hurry and come in then!” As soon as Madam Huo finished speaking, the private room’s door opened.

Su Wanwan looked up, and the smile on her face froze..
