Chapter 21 Meeting the Xia Family
It is a cyberpunk-style trendy brand store.
Yun Zijin is not very fond of this flashy style.
However, she had just said that she was a democratic host, so of course, she couldn't refuse now.
"Okay, let's go to that store first. You can all take a look and tell me if there's anything you like."
Yun Zijin and his group walked rapidly toward the trendy brand store.
"Yun Zijin!"
Hearing this familiar voice and that condescending tone, Yun Zijin wanted to curse that the voice was haunting her.
"Brother, is it sister?"
Yun Zijin knew who the delicate and weak voice belonged to without guessing.
"Are you Yun Zijin? What is your relationship with them?"
Yun Zijin didn't even turn around. As soon as she heard the name, she knew it was her biological mother, whom she had never met.
When she turned around, she proved that her guess was correct.
Today is the day Xia Jiaojiao was discharged from the hospital. After being discharged, she didn't go home to rest but was in the mood to shop at the mall. Her injuries are not serious enough.
"Anyone help me?"
"What's your attitude? I'm your mother, after all, and that's how you talk to me?"
Zhang Yiqun originally had an aversion to Yun Zijin, the daughter who suddenly appeared. Now, seeing Yun Zijin's bad attitude towards her, her impression of Yun Zijin has become even worse.
"I will talk to you the same way you talk to me. Do you have anything to do? If not, I'll leave. I'm busy!"
She was still waiting to buy clothes for her bodyguards. Every second they delay might prevent her from spending her 10 million daily salary today.
"elder sister!"
Yun Zijin glanced at Xia Jiaojiao, whose eyes had turned red without her knowing, with a slightly cold look in her eyes.
"I'm an orphan. I don't have the habit of recognizing a sister. Besides... our birthdays are on the same day. It's not certain who was born first on that day. Don't come up and yell before you figure it out."
"Yun Zijin!" Xia Zhiyun didn't expect Yun Zijin not only to have a bad face toward him but also to be sarcastic and mean, even to the elders and his sister, who had just been discharged from the hospital.
"I can hear you! I've often told you that you should pretend you don't know me when you meet me next time. Master Xia, do you not understand what I'm saying or what?"
They would quarrel every time they met. Yun Zijin was annoyed. She glanced coldly at Xia Zhiyun and was about to turn around and leave.
"etc!"
Yun Zijin paused and looked at Xia Zhiyun: "If anything is wrong, please release it."
"I told you yesterday that tomorrow is Grandpa's birthday party, and as the daughter of our Xia family, you should attend.
We came out today to pick out a dress for Jiaojiao, and since we've met, let's go together."
Yun Zijin glanced at Xia Zhiyun and said, "Are you so persistent that you insist I attend this birthday party?"
"yes!"
Yun Zijin smiled slightly, but the smile did not reach her eyes: "Okay, then I'll do as you say. I'll choose the dress myself, and you remember to pay.
But I hope you won't regret it."
Don't expect her to waste money on unnecessary consumption that is not part of her plan.
Yun Zijin glanced at the three people, not intending to say more to them, and turned around to leave.
"etc!"
Yun Zijin closed her eyes and told herself to stay calm. After a while, she turned around again and said, "If you have anything else to say, please tell me all at once."
"You haven't told me what your relationship with them is!"
Zhang Yiqin frowned and said impatiently, "Sister, don't be angry. Mom cares about you! After all, you are a girl shopping in the mall with so many boys..."
Xia Jiaojiao stopped talking halfway through her sentence, but the remaining half left people with endless reverie.
"You are who you are, and you judge others by who they are.
Look! Wearing a black suit and sunglasses, who else would think of him as a bodyguard?
You'd better be quiet and don't force me to do anything to you! "
Xia Jiaojiao pretended to be frightened, backed away with fear on her face, and hid behind Zhang Yiqun.
"Evil girl! What do you want to do? Jiaojiao has just been discharged from the hospital. Do you want her to be hospitalized again right after being discharged?"
Yun Zijin: ...
Just saying a few words can lead to hospitalization. Is Xia Jiaojiao a paper person?
"Ms. Zhang Yiqin, I hope you understand that you did not raise me. My own hands earn every penny I spend now! No one in your Xia family has the right to tell me what to do, including you! My biological mother.
If there is any debt, your Xia family should owe me!"
Yun Zijin's words left Xia Zhiyun and Zhang Yiqun speechless. They wanted to refute them, but in the end, they found that what Yun Zijin said was true.
Only Xia Jiaojiao, in the corner where no one could see, had a look in her eyes that seemed filled with poison, and there was no trace of the little white flower in front of others.
"Okay, stop hanging around me, I'm busy!"
After saying that, Yun Zijin turned around and took the seven people from Zero One to Zero Seven into the trendy brand store at the back.
Yun Zijin is considered a famous, wealthy woman in Jinsheng Shopping Mall. When people in the trendy brand store saw her, they approached her enthusiastically.
"Mom, brother, this store seems to sell men's clothing. Is my sister... buying clothes for those boys?"
After Xia Jiaojiao calmed herself down, she began her performance.
"Humph! She grew up outside, and her personality has become wild!
Zhiyun, you should keep an eye on her from now on; don't let her ruin the reputation of our Xia family!"
Zhang Yiqun did not have any motherly sympathy for her daughter. Instead, she was always worried about whether Yun Zijin would bring shame to the Xia family.
Xia Zhiyun glanced at Xia Jiaojiao with mixed feelings but finally nodded: "I understand."
"Okay, forget about her. Jiaojiao's dress hasn't been chosen yet. Don't let irrelevant people ruin our mood."
Zhang Yiqun took Xia Jiaojiao's hand and led her to the shop where they usually made custom dresses.
Xia Zhiyun glanced at Yun Zijin in the trendy brand store and saw her taking clothes from the shelf as if they were free. She even compared the clothes to one of the men next to her. She pursed her lips and left behind Zhang Yiqun and Xia Jiaojiao.
Inside a trendy brand store.
"Okay, these are the ones I'll need. Please help me get him a size that he can wear."
Yun Zijin didn't let Lingqi try it. After all, they had to buy clothes for seven people today, and it would take too long if everyone tried it.
"Okay, wait a moment."
When the clerk saw Yun Zijin take several sets at once, he smiled so happy.
As expected, she is a wealthy woman famous for her lavish spending in Jinsheng Shopping Mall. Just these few sets of clothes represent her sales for several days.
"Ms. Yun, the clothes you ordered are packed. Please come over here to check out."
Yun Zijin nodded, handed the clothing bag to Lingqi, and followed the clerk to check out.
"Hello, your total spending is 128,000. Would you like to pay by card or cash?"
"Swipe the card."
Yun Zijin handed over the black gold card.
After checkout, Yun Zijin put the receipts into the packaging bag in Lingqi's hand and took them out of the Cyberpunk Fashion Brand Store, ready to move to the second store.
