【…】

In short, he was being kept by a rich woman.

Jiang Li almost choked on her own saliva.

She quickly lowered her head, using the act of petting the cat to suppress her expression.

Could this be considered exchanging a rich woman's happiness ball for Bai Yuan's Chanel?

He's eating a rotten, hard meal; isn't he afraid he'll break his own teeth one day?

He couldn't get close to you before, and now he's being pressured to pay you back. Bai Yuan cries about her grievances every day.

In order to maintain his senior's dignity, he gritted his teeth and went to a rich woman to get 100,000 yuan to sell himself into servitude.

He must have suffered a lot last night, and now he has to pretend to be a generous young master.

The system wagged its tail in her arms, looking completely relaxed and ready to watch the show.

In front of the fitting room mirror, Bai Yuan had already changed into the light-colored coat recommended by the shop assistant.

She looked at herself in the mirror from left to right, a shy yet satisfied smile on her lips.

However, those eyes would occasionally peek through the bright mirror to examine Gu Ze behind her.

Two shop assistants stood to the side, dutifully praising how well the dress accentuated her figure and suited her temperament.

Bai Yuan bit her lower lip lightly, turned around and walked to Gu Ze.

"Senior, this jacket is priced at ten thousand, that's way too expensive."

She took her coat off her shoulders, her face full of understanding and grievance.

"I was just browsing to enjoy the view, let's go look around somewhere else."

Gu Ze's expression stiffened unnaturally for a moment.

That ten thousand yuan was the result of his humiliation and forbearance in the hotel last night.

In the past, he would have confidently called Jiang Li to transfer the money or come over to settle the bill.

But now all sources of income have been cut off, and I can only rely on myself to get by.

In order to maintain his dignity as a man in front of Bai Yuan, and to prove that Gu Ze was still living a carefree life after leaving Jiang Li, he forced down the pain that was bleeding in his heart.

Gu Ze casually pulled the still-warm bank card from his pants pocket and handed it to the clerk next to him.

"Buy it if you like it, what's ten thousand yuan?"

The sales assistant immediately stepped forward with a smile: "This suits Miss Bai very well, and the color complements her temperament."

Bai Yuan gently bit her lip.

"My senior is so kind to me."

Her voice was soft, and it sounded like she was genuinely moved.

Jiang Li could tell that Bai Yuan probably also guessed that Gu Ze's money was ill-gotten.

After all, Bai Yuan knew very well what Gu Ze's background was before.

But she didn't ask.

As long as the clothes and bag are in hand, the money can come from anywhere.

But she didn't care about the process at all. As long as Gu Ze was still willing to continue being her free ATM, she was too lazy to break the ice.

"You're so kind to me, I don't know how to repay you."

She spoke in a very soft and gentle voice, and naturally reached out to take Gu Ze's arm.

Gu Ze's expression softened after hearing those words.

He turned around, and only then did he frown as if he had just seen Jiang Li.

"Ginger pear?"

Jiang Li held the cat and stood quietly not far away.

The minimalist pale yellow dress perfectly complemented Jiang Li's excellent bone structure.

The texture of the fabric made her look like a pampered young lady from a wealthy family, who had been spoiled by money and resources since childhood, exuding an air of nobility that Gu Ze had never seen before.

Gu Ze's eyes were only on Jiang Li's face; he didn't even glance at the black-clad female bodyguard following two steps behind her, nor did he notice the respectful stance of the mall's VIP manager.

His arrogant thought process immediately led him to conclude that Jiang Li had specifically inquired about his itinerary and deliberately came here to ambush him.

Those cold wars, blocking, and estrangement were definitely just this woman's boring tricks of playing hard to get.

Now that he's taking Bai Yuan shopping for clothes at high-end stores, he finally couldn't hold back and came to apologize.

The sense of superiority that I felt was immediately filled.

Gu Ze straightened the collar of his not-so-high-end shirt and strode straight up to Jiang Li.

His tone was full of condescension and condescending scrutiny.

"You've come at the perfect time."

He looked at Jiang Li with his chin held high, as if he were assigning a task to a subordinate who had made a mistake.

"I can let bygones be bygones regarding what happened before."

Jiang Li blinked gently.

[Tongzi, is he speaking human language?]

[In progress.]

[Detection failed.]

Bai Yuan stood behind Gu Ze, her face showing some helplessness.

"Senior Jiang Li, don't misunderstand, my senior and I just came out to buy some things."

Upon hearing this, the gazes of the two customers next to him became somewhat subtle.

Gu Ze seemed to have regained his home turf.

"Yuan Yuan has always been very considerate of my feelings; you should learn from her."

Jiang Li looked at him.

Gu Ze straightened his back, carrying a shopping bag in his hand, as if that would cover up his embarrassment.

"Buy Yuan Yuan some clothes."

There was a sudden silence for two seconds.

The shop assistant's smile faltered for a moment.

The VIP manager also looked up.

Bai Yuan's eyes held a mocking glint of anticipation, waiting to see how Jiang Li would humbly hand over her money.

Gu Ze, however, did not feel that anything was wrong.

"If you're more sensible, I can consider forgiving you for what you did before."

Jiang Li looked at the man in front of her, whose self-esteem was so high that it was almost abnormal, and almost rolled her eyes to the sky.

"Tongzi, did this guy leave his brain on that fifty-year-old rich woman's bed when he went out?"

How could he possibly say such shameless things in front of so many people with such confidence?

The system scoffed: [He probably really thinks all the women in the world should revolve around him. This kind of scumbag is indeed rare.]

Jiang Li didn't even bother to say a word to him.

He completely ignored Gu Ze standing in front of him.

I strode past him and headed straight for the innermost row, where the current season's haute couture ready-to-wear section was separated out.

She reached out and picked up a black velvet dress from the hanger, the smooth fabric brushing against her fingertips.

"The cut of this garment is passable."

Jiang Li gave instructions to the VIP manager who had been following behind her.

The shop assistant immediately realized what was happening and quickly stepped forward.

"Miss Jiang, I'll take you to the fitting room."

Jiang Li nodded.

She didn't even glance at Bai Yuan as she passed by.

This kind of disregard is more painful than arguing.

The humiliation of having his proud self-esteem brutally crushed and rubbed into the ground completely distorted the expression on Gu Ze's face.

Enraged, he strode forward and reached out to grab Jiang Li's arm.

"Jiang Li, are you deaf when I talk to you?"

My hand hadn't even touched that pale yellow hem of clothing yet.

The female bodyguard who had been silent behind him suddenly blocked his way.

Gu Ze's expression turned even uglier when he was stopped.

The customers nearby were watching the spectacle intently.

Someone whispered.

"This guy made his ex-girlfriend buy clothes for his current girlfriend?"

"He's pretty shameless."

"The point is, he seemed quite self-righteous about it."
