Buy clothes on Vipshop

  Xu KeWei suddenly let out a sigh, putting down her household chores: "These past few years of illness have forced you to grow up so quickly, and yet you haven't even gotten to enjoy anything. I've never given you a proper birthday celebration, and you've never had the chance to go out and play with your classmates either."

  "Mom..."

  Xu Ke Wei patted her shoulder and picked up her purse: "Let's go, Mom will take you shopping for clothes!"

  "Huh?" How did the topic turn out like this.

  "Aren't we going to give Xiaoxue a birthday gift?" Although he had never met Xiaoxue, she seemed to be Wanqing's best friend at the moment. "We'll go pick out a gift for her, and then buy you a new outfit."

  "Why buy clothes when we can just get gifts?"

  "How long has it been since you last bought new clothes?" Paused for a moment, "Don't count those your dad bought!"

  "Then choose." Wanqing also didn't want to mention Ding Zhigang and hastily agreed.

  The two went out, originally saying they would buy gifts first, but Wanqing thought and thought, couldn't think of what to buy, so they could only go buy clothes first.

  "You might as well think about the gift while you're at it, and once the clothes are bought, that's pretty much it."

  "Mm." Wan Qing hastily nodded.

  After visiting several stores, I finally saw a pearl white dress that looked great on Wan Qing. However, the quality of the dress itself was average. Xu Kewei thought to herself that she had lived a good life and felt that the fabric didn't match up to Wan Qing's standards. But when she saw the price, it was only 180, which was quite reasonable.

  "It's okay, it looks good," Xu Kewei said, with a heart-wrenching expression. "It's all because of mom that you're being held back. In a few years, when we have some extra money, I'll buy you a better one."

  "Mom..." Yan Qing was also heartbroken. She hastily grabbed her hand, "Don't cry. I'm fine, and this dress is fine too."

  The two of them were sad here, but the shopping guide in the distance thought they couldn't bear to part with it. Originally, they tried on one after another, and Yan Qing looked good in any of them, but Xu Kewei was not satisfied, which made the shopping guide lazy to greet them. Just now, Xu Kewei's self-reproaching expression seemed to them as if she had taken a liking to the clothes but couldn't bear to spend the money, so they started complaining in low voices beside her.

  Yan Qing tried on the clothes in the fitting room, took them to the counter, and saw Xu Kewei taking out money. There were only four or five 100-yuan bills in her bag, but this dress would take two of them. Suddenly, she felt reluctant, pulled back her hand that was handing over the money: "Mom! Let's not buy it? It's too expensive!"

  The shop assistant, who was scanning the barcode, paused for a moment, her smile stiffening slightly, but still spoke with great enthusiasm: "Little sister, this dress isn't expensive! Clothes are all priced like this nowadays, and look at the quality and how it fits you - wearing it makes you look like you spent 1800 on it, what a steal!"

  "What's wrong with you?" Xu Kewei was puzzled and still wanted to settle the bill.

  She was so anxious that she almost cried: "No more no more... Mom, let's go buy some ribs! It's better to eat a few more pounds of meat!"

  "You..." Xu Ke Wei had a tone of being both amused and exasperated.

  "Mom, our current situation... don't spend this kind of money anymore." Wanqing said in a low voice.

  Xu Kewe couldn't outdo her, since she was so sensible, then listen to her. Xu Kewe returned the clothes to the salesperson: "Sorry, we don't want them anymore."

  The shop assistant looked a bit embarrassed and reluctantly hung the clothes back up.

  As soon as Wan Qing and Xu Ke Wei walked out, they heard a complaining voice from behind: "If you can't afford it, then don't look at it, wasting so much of our time..."

  Xu Ke Wei's arm trembled as she grasped Wan Qing's hand: "Wait until you graduate next year, we'll see, I'll buy one for you as a graduation gift."

  "Good!" Yan Qing replied loudly. Although she was also criticized by her mother, she felt uneasy in her heart. However, it's better to save money. Moreover, after buying it, except at home, there is no chance to wear it out. What if she accidentally wore it in front of Mu Tianyang and he tore it off in a fit of anger? That would be too wasteful!

  In the midst of all this commotion, they forgot to buy a gift for "Little Snow". Wan Qing thought that Mu Tianxue would definitely not care about her gift, and buying one would be a waste of money. But Xu Kewei wouldn't let her go empty-handed, although children didn't need to be so formal, the thought still counted.

  Wan Qing left early that morning, and Xu Ke Wei didn't have time to accompany her to pick out a gift either. She took out 100 yuan and handed it to Wan Qing: "Take some time to go to a boutique store and choose a suitable gift. Something like a plush toy bear, girls should like that kind of thing."

  "Alright." Wanqing squeezed out the money and changed into canvas shoes.

  Xu Kewe thought for a moment and asked worriedly: "What's Snow's family situation like?" As she said that, she handed her another hundred yuan, "Buy something decent."

  Wan Qing was taken aback for a moment, then smiled: "Giving gifts is a kind intention, what does her family background have to do with you?" She returned 100 yuan.

  After going out, take a bus first, get off at an unfamiliar road section, take a taxi back to the villa, and the money on my body just enough to pay for the fare.

  There was only Zhang Ma in the villa. As soon as she saw her, Zhang Ma came up and said: "Miss, you're back?"

  "Hmm." Tian Xue scanned the surroundings with a glance, not expecting to see Mu Tianyang either. She hesitated and said, "I'll be heading over to the Mu's place in a bit..."

  "Miss Tianxue has already given instructions," said Zhang Ma. "Someone sent over clothes and shoes yesterday, they're all upstairs. You go change first, I'll get Ah Cheng to bring the car over. Before we arrive at the Mu's place, we still need to drop you off for makeup and hair styling."

  "Uh." Wanqing went upstairs, walked two steps and turned back, "Zhang Ma——"

  "What's wrong?"

  She hesitated for a moment, didn't know what to say, and shook her head.

  Mrs. Zhang seemed to know and said, "The master has never come back."

  She gripped the hand on the armrest tightly, was she going to ask him? Her heart thumped wildly, unsure if it was fear or something else. Then Zhang Ma's voice came again in a low tone: "He hasn't come back since he left that day."

  What day?

  A storm of emotions raged in her mind, chaotic images flashing by: his towel-clad body, the way he had ravished hers, the shame of their ambiguous intimacy... Suddenly, he kicked over the tea table, and the turmoil ceased.

  The car stopped in the garden of Mu's villa, Wanqing nervously pinched the gift and invitation card, with a thin layer of cold sweat on her forehead.

  "Miss, we're here." Ah Cheng said from the front seat, but didn't dare turn his head to look at her. She was dressed up for Mu Tianyang, and he wasn't allowed to gaze at her directly in front of the president.

  She took a deep breath, and gently pushed open the car door. First to appear were her slender feet in dark green high heels, followed by her lithe body.

  She stood elegantly in the twilight, gazing longingly at the vast garden. Several cars were parked around her, and she thought that not everyone had arrived yet. But after the guests got out of the cars, they drove away under the guidance of a special person, and no more vehicles could be seen in the garden. It seemed that maybe everyone had arrived, but it was uncertain.

  "Ding Wanqing!" A loud shout came from behind.
