The shopping mall was filled with a variety of products.
Jiujiu's heart ached at the thought that she didn't have a single one of them.
Jiujiu walked around the shopping mall and saw large, round pearl necklaces and sparkling diamond rings. She narrowed her eyes and wondered if she should call Wang Yu and ask him to send her a bank card.
After much consideration, Jiujiu decided not to do so.
After all, they were celebrating Young Master's recovery in the hospital, while she was here to indulge in extravagance. Even if she was here to drive away bad luck and wake He Yue up, He Nanshan wouldn't be happy either.
Jiujiu looked at the diamond ring that she had tried on reluctantly. She asked the receptionist to put it back and picked up her phone to leave.
Just as she reached the entrance of the shopping mall.
Jiujiu suddenly saw a very eye-catching man and woman standing at the door. The man seemed to be the man she had just eaten with.
From this angle, the man's nose was as good as He Yue's. He didn't have He Yue's swollen face because of the car accident, so he looked extremely pleasing to the eye.
Tsk.
Handsome men were always good-looking.
Jiujiu glanced at him and turned to walk towards the intersection.
She was penniless. Since she couldn't buy anything, she might as well go home.
She would come back tomorrow when she had the money.
Because the shopping mall was huge, there were a lot of people who wanted to hail taxis. A few taxis were stopped halfway.
Just as Jiujiu was wondering if she should call Wang Yu and ask him to pick her up, a Porsche slowly stopped in front of Jiujiu.
The window of the front passenger seat slowly lowered and Jiujiu saw a familiar side profile.
The man in the car smiled warmly at Jiujiu and introduced himself. "It's not convenient to wait here. I'll send you back."
Jiujiu looked at the man warily and rejected him coldly. "It's okay. I'll wait a little longer."
Being rejected by Jiujiu, the man was not angry. He only said helplessly, "Sister-in-law, don't tell me you don't recognize me. I'm He Ze. We had dinner together today."
When the man mentioned this, Jiujiu couldn't pretend that she didn't know him anymore. She could only pretend to be enlightened and nodded. "Oh, it's you. What a coincidence ~"
Jiujiu said that it was a coincidence, but she had no intention of getting in the car.
He Ze muttered in his heart, "How vigilant." Then he said, "If Dad finds out that I didn't send Sister-in-law home after meeting her, he'll be angry."
He Ze looked at Jiujiu pitifully and said pitifully, "Sister-in-law, if you don't agree, Dad will scold me to death."
He Ze had already put it this way. If Jiujiu continued to refuse to get in the car, it would be unreasonable.
Jiujiu could only nod and get in the car.
The moment Jiujiu got in the car, the car drove forward slowly.
Because they were in the city center, the car drove slower. He Ze took the time to talk to Jiujiu.
"Sister-in-law, didn't you go with Dad to visit my big brother today? Why are you here? "
Jiujiu looked at her phone and said, "Your brother woke up. They were all busy with your brother, so I came out."
When he heard Jiujiu say that He Yue was awake, He Ze's expression went blank for a moment. Then he revealed a fake smile. "My brother woke up? That's great. Sister-in-law, you are indeed my brother's lucky star. "
After He Ze said this, he seemed to realize that Jiujiu was forced to use this to ward off bad luck. He hurriedly apologized. "I'm sorry, Sister-in-law."
Jiujiu smiled indifferently and waved her hand. "It's okay. I bought it to ward off bad luck."
The Jiang family had already accepted the money, so there was no need for her to put on an act.
After all, everyone knew what kind of background she had. Pretending to be rich would only make her a laughingstock.
He Ze didn't expect Jiujiu to be so calm. After being stunned for a moment, he smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you're different from what I expected."
Before Jiujiu came, he had gotten someone to check on Jiang Jiu.
She was a pitiful child who had been taken advantage of by her father and treated harshly by her stepmother.
Although her grades were good, she was timid and her presence in school was almost non-existent.
When He Nanshan wanted to rank Jiujiu and He Yue, He Ze thought that He Nanshan was crazy.
He didn't expect that she wasn't as timid as the information made her out to be. Instead, she had an unstoppable edge.
He originally thought that He Nanshan was crazy, but now it seemed that He Nanshan wasn't crazy. Instead, he was smarter than anyone else.
He had spent fifty million to find a smart daughter-in-law. She had just arrived at the hospital, and He Yue, who had been unconscious for so long, had woken up instantly.
He had made a killing.
He Ze had a plan in his heart. He looked at Jiujiu more carefully. He chose his words carefully and said, "Sister-in-law, why didn't you sell something at the mall?"
He Ze's tone was naturally affectionate. It was like a younger brother complaining that his sister didn't spend money and wanted to help the family save money.
However, Jiujiu knew that He Ze wasn't like that. In fact, she had only officially met He Ze now.
How could someone who had just met be so affectionate? To put it bluntly, he was just pretending.
Jiujiu knew very well. She just smiled and explained, "I forgot to bring my bag. I didn't bring any money."
She had only brought a phone with her when she left the Jiang family. Everything else was given to her by the He family.
She was just a poor student now. At most, she only had a few thousand yuan. It was simply a dream to buy things here without relying on the He family.
Jiujiu's explanation was perfect, but He Ze still had some doubts in his heart.
Did Jiujiu see him standing with Lan Qing? If Jiujiu saw it, he was afraid …
He Ze continued to ask, "I see. I was also at the mall just now. Sister-in-law, didn't you see me?"
If it was said that he was just secretly probing before, then now he was openly probing.
He Ze was obviously trying to find out if Jiujiu saw him standing with that woman at the entrance of the mall just now.
Naturally, Jiujiu couldn't say that she saw this kind of thing. She pretended to be confused and said dejectedly, "I was about to buy something when I realized that I forgot to bring my card. I came out and didn't see you."
Although Jiujiu said that, He Ze still didn't believe her. He planned to get someone to check the surveillance footage to see if Jiujiu had seen him and Lan Qing.
He Ze asked a few more questions before the car fell into silence.
After Jiujiu got out of the car, she pushed open the door and saw He Nanshan sitting in the living room with an ugly expression.
Indeed, He Nanshan had a good impression of Jiujiu when He Yue woke up when Jiujiu called out to him.
However, this good impression wasn't enough to last until he realized that Jiujiu had left.
He Yue had just woken up from a serious illness and was still in that state. However, Jiujiu had abandoned him and ran away.
Even if Jiujiu and He Yue didn't have any feelings for each other, the two of them had already registered their marriage and were legally husband and wife.
This woman probably didn't have a heart to be so cold to a married couple.
"Where did you go?"
