"Alright, I’ll take this pair of shoes," Hua Xiaomo said, then turned to Ye Xiangxue beside her. "Ye Xiangxue, don’t just stand there. Hurry and pick out a pair for yourself too!"
"Okay, I’ll pick out a pair for myself too," Ye Xiangxue replied with a smile.
Soon after, Ye Xiangxue also picked out a very pretty pair of shoes. She looked at Hua Xiaomo with a smile. "I’m sorry, Hua Xiaomo, for making you spend so much money."
"What’s there to be sorry about? We’re friends; is there any need for such politeness between us? It’s unnecessary," Hua Xiaomo smiled. She looked at Ye Xiangxue, then at her daughter Candy, her face showing a serene smile.
"Hua Xiaomo, you’re just so kind. It seems making friends with you was the right choice," Ye Xiangxue also smiled.
Then Hua Xiaomo took both pairs of shoes and glanced towards Candy. Candy was dazzled by the choices and didn’t know which pair to buy.
"Mommy, Mommy, I want to buy a pair of shoes! Please help choose. I don’t know which pair to get. I think all these shoes are pretty. That pair is also very nice; it even has Little Fairy on it! And this pair has Flower Fairy. I like them both very much," Candy said, pointing to the two pairs of shoes in front of her, her eyes shining with a pure light.
Hua Xiaomo smiled. Looking at the two pairs of shoes, she said to the sales assistant, "Could you please get these two pairs in this child’s size for her to try on?"
"Of course, Miss. Please wait a mont," the sales assistant replied enthusiastically. She quickly brought the shoes in Candy’s size. Candy tried them on and was very satisfied.
"Mommy, Mommy, I want both of these pairs! Please buy them both for , okay?" Candy said, looking up at Hua Xiaomo, her eyes sparkling brightly, like stars in the sky.
Hua Xiaomo nodded, then turned to the salesclerk. "Four pairs of shoes in total. Could you ring us up, please? How much will it be?"
"Would you like to pay by card or with cash, Miss?" the salesclerk asked, a standard professional smile on his face as he looked at Hua Xiaomo.
"Card, please. Thank you," Hua Xiaomo replied with a smile. She quickly paid with her card. Just as the group, happy with their purchases, was about to leave the shoe store, they suddenly bumped into two won entering the shop.
These two won were none other than Pan Yutong and her assistant, Xu Qing.
Hua Xiaomo’s expression darkened, but before she could say anything, Candy imdiately hid behind her, looking at Pan Yutong with eyes full of terror.
She would never forget how Pan Yutong had berated her at school. This woman was truly disgusting. She had actually cursed her and looked just like an old Witch. She was thoroughly wicked.
Candy looked at Pan Yutong’s staring eyes; though terrified, she still hid behind her mother.
Hua Xiaomo looked at Pan Yutong, her own expression darkening. At that mont, Ye Xiangxue, standing beside them, also looked at Pan Yutong, her gaze sowhat unusual. She said to Hua Xiaomo,
"Hua Xiaomo, let’s go," Ye Xiangxue urged, a profound light in the depths of her eyes, her gaze deliberately sweeping past Pan Yutong and her assistant.
Well, of all the tis and places to et, it had to be here.
But it was truly strange. Wasn’t Pan Yutong supposed to be in City A? How did she suddenly show up in City B? It was quite odd indeed.
However, she couldn’t concern herself with that too much right now. Pan Yutong must have co to cause trouble for Hua Xiaomo, but it seed Hua Xiaomo didn’t want to engage with her.
"Alright," Hua Xiaomo nodded. She then looked at Ye Xiangxue, quickly took her daughter, and started to walk in another direction. However, before they had taken more than a few steps, Pan Yutong rushed forward.
Pan Yutong looked at Hua Xiaomo and sneered, "Well, well, out shopping for shoes, are we? What a pity. Who knows if the shoes you buy will even fit? If you take them ho and they don’t fit, it’ll be such a hassle to return them. You might as well not buy any shoes at all."
Pan Yutong spoke sarcastically, her eyes glaring at Hua Xiaomo with unconcealed annoyance. Looking at Hua Xiaomo, she couldn’t help but recall the issues between herself and Qi Longbing. And why should Hua Xiaomo interfere in her family? That woman was truly detestable!
Yes, if it weren’t for Hua Xiaomo, she and Qi Longbing would definitely have developed feelings for each other.
If Hua Xiaomo hadn’t tried every trick to attract Qi Longbing’s attention, how could Qi Longbing possibly ignore her? How could he be so heartless towards her? How could he have no feelings for her at all?
It was all Hua Xiaomo’s fault! That woman was truly loathso. If Hua Xiaomo hadn’t inserted herself into the relationship between her and Qi Longbing, things with Qi Longbing wouldn’t have ended up this way.
Yes, it was all Hua Xiaomo’s fault. Hua Xiaomo truly wasn’t a good woman.
She had to make Qi Longbing realize that Hua Xiaomo was a very, very bad woman. Her intention was to destroy other people’s families! A woman like Hua Xiaomo was truly abominable!
She just couldn’t tolerate such a woman, yet Qi Longbing actually liked her type!
She really didn’t know what Qi Longbing was thinking. Could he really be planning to divorce her? How hateful! But how could he divorce her?
If he divorced her, it would seriously damage their company’s reputation. Moreover, they had many collaborative projects with the Qi Imperial Court. How could he just talk about divorce and get one so easily?
That was absolutely impossible! Everything had to prioritize benefits, and their marriage, after all, was primarily built on benefits. Qi Longbing must have lost his mind! Hadn’t he considered this connection?
Could he really want to divorce her just for this woman, disregarding everything else?
No! She absolutely could not let Qi Longbing achieve his goal! And she definitely could not let this woman destroy her family! No matter what, she had to defend her family. She had to drive this woman away from her side, drive her away from Qi Longbing’s side!
Hua Xiaomo looked at Pan Yutong. Her harsh voice made Hua Xiaomo very uncomfortable, and her words were particularly cutting and disgusting to hear.
Yes, she had never t a woman like Pan Yutong. But no matter what, Pan Yutong was Qi Longbing’s wife.
