She said, "In a while, accompany me to shop around for a bit. Just buy a few more things for me."
"Buy things?"
"Yes. Shopping can relieve me of all of my unhappiness!" Lin Che said.
Although Gu Jingze did not quite understand what she had said, he still agreed. "Alright, you can buy whatever you want later."
When Lin Che heard this, she clapped her hands and said, "Okay. I definitely won't stand on formalities with you later."
"Why are you such a money-grubber?"
"I'm not some well-bred young lady anyway. It's fine for me to be a bit of a money-grubber," Lin Che said.
Gu Jingze's face darkened immediately.
Lin Che pursed her lips and thought to herself, Oh no, why did she bring up some well-bred young lady for no reason? He had just been there brooding over Mo Huiling.
She smiled and said, "I meant that it's because I'm poor." Gu Jingze glared at her. She only knew to bewail her poverty all the time.
They only ate a few simple mouthfuls of their meal as both of them did not have much of an appetite.
After leaving, Lin Che shopped around aimlessly in the shopping mall. She did not have anything that she wanted to buy for herself, so she bought some things for Shen Youran and Yu Minmin while she was at it.
It was not long before she could no longer carry all the things she had bought.
It was really very satisfying to go shopping with Gu Jingze. She did not have to care about the prices; the moment he entered, he directly instructed them to wrap up everything. In no time, they had simply wiped out all the places in the entire mall that they were interested in.
Very soon after, they arrived at a gold store that looked very high end.
Gu Jingze stopped in his tracks and looked inside. "Are we not going in to take a look?"
Lin Che took a look and felt that the products inside were probably all very expensive. She pondered for a bit before deciding to forget it. She had already spent too much when she was actually reluctant to do so too. "No, it's alright. To be honest, I don't really wear any jewelry."
"It's alright. Let's go in and take a look." He looked at Lin Che. Although she was very crazy about money, it seemed that she had really never worn anything particularly valuable.
As he said this, he had already pushed Lin Che into the store.
This store looked extremely high end and was different from ordinary jewelry stores.
Upon seeing the two of them enter, the salesperson did not immediately recognize Gu Jingze who had always kept a low profile. He completely did not recognize Lin Che either as she was wearing a mask. However, he saw the imposing manner of the people following behind them and knew as well that this was not a patron whom he could afford to offend. He glanced at the few professional bodyguards. From the time their gold store had opened for business until now, he had likely never met such a formidable character before. Thus, he appeared much more respectful and cautious towards these two people.
Lin Che had never enjoyed such treatment. The moment she stepped in, she was immediately brought to an area at the side for special guests where the salesperson here was a beautiful lady. The store manager who looked like he was very experienced and educated even followed beside her.
"What would the two of you like to look at?"
How could Lin Che know?
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che and said, "Bring out whatever good products you have in your inventory. We'll take a look and let you know again." Upon hearing this, the manager turned his head and instructed the salesperson to bring over all the products of the WIP quality.
The salesperson saw that the manager took this very seriously and also quickly instructed someone to settle the matter.
In a while, a few people walked in. They held trays with emerald pendants and rings all displayed on them. Looking at so many items in such a short span of time, Lin Che's eyes seemed to go slightly blurry.
"This ring is so beautiful... "
"This pendant is beautiful too."
"Hey, is this the traditional jade accessory used to relieve itches? Where are you supposed to put this?"
