Lu Jiaxin had set the alarm before she went to sleep, and was awakened by it after just an hour. The first thing she did was to check her watch – it was two-thirty in the morning.
After washing up and applying skincare products, she put on a light green dress. She used to love red in her previous life, but having experienced life and death, she now favored green because it represented vigorous vitality.
She only wore a wristwatch, deeming further accessories unnecessary at her age – she looked good without them. Lu Jiaxin glanced at herself in the mirror, decided there were no issues, and left with her purse.
Guh Xiuxiu was leisurely reading the newspaper in the living room. There was nothing to fault about her taste in clothing, but the absence of any jewelry on her displeased her: "Aunt Mei, go bring my diamond necklace."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jiaxin immediately refused, "Aunt, I'm just going out shopping, not attending a dinner party; there's no need for jewelry."
