After hitting the Rolls-Royce, the top-tier green tea started fishing.

Ruan Zhining wasn't faking it. She was genuinely sad.

This sadness may stem from being in a private cruise ship, surrounded by wealthy people.

Their lives are so good; they can buy whatever they like.

This caused her to feel a rare, awkward sense of self-blame.

She couldn't blame her parents and sister; they all loved her. She only blamed herself for not knowing how to make money; she should have tried harder.

After returning to her room from shopping at the luxury store, she slumped on the sofa for a while, then couldn't resist searching for a replica of the bracelet.

She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that none of them looked as good as the real thing.

...Why don't we take another look? Trying them on will make us feel great.

Ruan Zhining left the room again. But this time she was alone.

At this time, most people should be taking a lunch break.

But when she got to the luxury store, she found several rich kids with their female companions swiping their cards like crazy.

She glanced at it enviously a few times, but didn't go in. Instead, she pretended to look at the sea on the deck, but actually circled around to investigate.

As she turned her head for the fifth time, a deep, magnetic, familiar male voice sounded beside her:

"Isn't this Miss Ruan, who isn't interested in this store?"

Ruan Zhining: "..."

She suddenly looked up and found Wen Chongyan standing in front of her.

He also seemed to have just come out of the room, his suit jacket off and hanging inside his arm.

He wore a gray silk shirt, and the sea breeze subtly revealed the outline of his well-proportioned and muscular chest.

...I feel like I could be suffocated by those pectoral muscles pressing down on me.

Ruan Zhining swallowed inexplicably. She timidly decided to ignore him and made a hasty retreat.

But Wen Chongyan's words made her stop in her tracks:

"I'm going into the store to browse. Do you want to come?"

"..."

Are you asking her?

Ruan Zhining was a little confused and pointed to herself: "Me...me?"

"Are there other women here?"

Wen Chongyan had one hand in his pocket, looking aloof and superior, and his tone seemed very impatient.

Oh, so it turns out that it's a bit embarrassing for a handsome guy to shop alone, and he needs a female companion.

With a billionaire like her who has the financial power, wouldn't it be possible to extend the time she can just look without buying?

Ruan Zhining immediately perked up.

Her pretty face immediately broke into a sweet smile: "Mr. Wen, then I'll go shopping with you. Um... I'll help you with your coat."

As she spoke, she reached out and took his expensive suit jacket (mainly because carrying it would make her feel more confident going into the store).

Wen Chongyan scoffed coldly, just as he had expected.

She was faking it all; she just wanted the bracelet—she wasn't really sad about other men.

Otherwise, why was she pacing around the shop entrance, peering longingly inside? She seemed so subservient, which annoyed him.

She's definitely acting again. Is she trying to gain Jiang Linfeng's sympathy?

He won't give that gold digger that chance.

So he wanted to go into the store with Ruan Zhining to see what tricks she was up to, in order to prevent Jiang Linfeng from being deceived.

That's it.

Wen Chongyan thought coldly, then turned and walked into the luxury store.

Ruan Zhining followed behind him. This time, it wasn't a dog sneaking around anymore; it was open and aboveboard.

The shop assistant asked warmly, "Sir, what would you like to buy?"

Wen Chongyan sat down on the chair in front of the stage, glanced around casually, and noticed out of the corner of his eye that Ruan Zhining's eyes were drifting towards the bracelet.

Noticing that he was watching, she immediately lowered her head, behaving very obediently.

Wen Chongyan sneered dismissively, "Take out that bracelet over there and let me see it."

A whole row of bracelets was displayed on a black velvet box.

Ruan Zhining's eyes widened suddenly.

Now, she wasn't afraid of the terrifying Wen Chongyan anymore, and subconsciously moved closer to him.

I just want to see it more clearly.

They look so beautiful, they're all so bright!

But the one she spotted at first glance was still the prettiest...

Wen Chongyan, however, was not looking at the bracelet at all.

The girl standing beside him moved closer and closer, her body bending down, and a very soft spot pressed against his shoulder.

"..."

Wen Chongyan's right shoulder stiffened slightly.

The large hand resting on his lap clenched tightly.

He knew Ruan Zhining didn't mean it; she really didn't want to seduce him—but this thought didn't put him at ease; instead, it made him irritable again.

Before Ruan Zhining could get her fill of looking, Wen Chongyan, who was standing beside her, suddenly stood up.

His handsome face seemed shrouded in shadow.

Why are you suddenly unhappy?

Ruan Zhining held his suit, actually wanting to take another look.

Her eyes darted around. "Mr. Wen, who are you buying this for? I can help you decide."

It would be best to help you try them on again.

Her big eyes were fixed on him, and she was smiling.

It's so beautiful. But looking at it only makes me more annoyed.

Wen Chongyan said to her in a cold tone, "No need."

Without even glancing at it, he casually pointed to the display case and said, "Wrap this one up."

!

Ruan Zhining's eyes lit up. It was exactly the one she had her eye on!

Wen Chongyan handed over a black gold card, which the shop assistant took, swiped, and packaged the item—all in one smooth motion.

Ruan Zhining stood aside watching, her face showing a mixture of envy and frustration.

When will she be this rich?

Not too much, just 1% of Wen Chongyan's wealth will do. If that's not enough, she can accept a transfer, even 0.5% will do.

The shop assistant handed over the wrapped bag, and Ruan Zhining immediately reached out to take it: "Mr. Wen, let me help you carry it."

Wen Chongyan didn't even glance at her. He gave a curt "hmm" indifferently.

Ruan Zhining didn't care about Wen Chongyan's coldness. After all, she had nearly two hundred thousand yuan worth of stuff in her hands. At least she'd had her fun.

To carry it a little longer, she dragged her feet and walked behind him.

They discovered that the staff had led them to a revolving tea pavilion on the second floor, where customers who had made purchases could enjoy the tea for free.

An exquisite afternoon tea was served.

He had only been sitting down for less than two minutes when his phone rang, and he got up to answer it.

As soon as he left, Ruan Zhining acted like a released prisoner, quickly pulling out her phone to record a video.

After photographing the luxury goods, take pictures of this luxury cruise ship and send them all to Xie Lanlan.

Xie Lanlan was indeed jealous, and sent over another video of herself looking at houses. The two of them were exchanging messages. A head-on confrontation.

Not far away, Wen Chongyan was standing at the corner answering a phone call.

From the decorative mirror diagonally in front of him, one can see—

Ruan Zhining was secretly and passionately filming a video and sending voice messages to people.

Judging from her smug and beaming expression, the other person must be a woman. Someone she doesn't like, and she's showing off.

This time, her smile was genuine, completely unpretentious. And she was no longer sad at all.

Wen Chongyan gave a cold laugh.

He thought to himself, "It's just a small thing. I might as well buy it for Ruan Zhining so she'll behave herself and stop bothering me."

It bothered him so much that he kept thinking about her wide-eyed, pleading face, which affected his mood.

Therefore, he chose to take action because of his own feelings.

That's it.

Ruan Zhining quickly finished filming and called it a day. She then settled down and began to enjoy her afternoon tea.

But by the time she had almost finished a large piece of tiramisu, Wen Chongyan still hadn't returned.

I asked a waiter, and he said that the handsome gentleman had already left. He was on the phone when he left.

Ruan Zhining was surprised. She thought to herself, "No wonder he's the richest man; he's so busy."

But seeing that there were more and more people on the deck, and fearing that Jiang Linfeng would see her, she quickly slipped back to her room.

But the item is still in my hand.

Looking at the gorgeous luxury bags on the table, Ruan Zhining was at a loss.

After thinking for a moment, she had no choice but to find Wen Chongyan's WeChat and add him as a friend.

Greeting: Mr. Wen, I am Ruan Zhining

Unexpectedly, the moment she pressed send, the other person accepted her friend request.
