Border Prisoner: The Mad Boss Seduces Her Every Night
Chapter 81 The Bones Are Melting
Lin Wanqing took her to the most famous luxury shopping mall in Taimai CBD.
As the transparent elevator ascended, Shi Luyu could see layers upon layers of jewelry display cases and luxury brand shop windows below. Expensive fragrances filled the air, the floors gleamed so brightly they reflected light, and well-trained sales assistants stood at the entrance of each store.
Lin Wanqing walked into a high-end dress shop as if she knew her way around.
The sales assistant greeted her with a smile as soon as she saw her: "Ms. Lin, you've arrived."
Lin Wanqing nodded gently, as if she had long been accustomed to this treatment.
"I'd like to pick out a few outfits suitable for exchange student activities." She turned to Shi Luyu, smiling gently, "Let's show them to Lulu too."
The sales assistant glanced at Shi Luyu, her smile still polite, but she was clearly not as warm as she was to Lin Wanqing.
Shi Luyu frowned slightly and politely declined, "No need, thank you."
Lin Wanqing seemed not to hear her, and directly picked up a champagne-colored halter dress, holding it up in front of Shi Luyu. "This one is very pretty, but it might be a bit too mature. Lulu is young, so she should suit a cuter style more."
Shi Luyu pursed her lips.
Lin Wanqing picked up another item, glanced at the price tag, and smiled gently.
"However, the prices here might be a bit high. You probably don't buy these kinds of things often, right? It's okay, since you came shopping with me, I'll give you a dress as a thank you gift."
The sales assistant stood to the side, her smile subtle.
Shi Luyu finally raised her eyes and looked at her, seemingly understanding something.
Shi Luyu was a little angry that he said he came to ask her to go shopping, but in reality he wanted to embarrass her.
But she didn't show it; she just smiled calmly and said, "Thank you, but it's no trouble at all."
She turned her head and pointed to the two skirts on the left, saying to the sales assistant, "Could you please bring me this one, this one, and that misty pink satin skirt over there so I can try them on?"
The sales assistant was taken aback for a moment.
Shi Luyu added, "Size 37. If you have a smaller size, bring that too."
Lin Wanqing looked at her.
Shi Luyu's expression was very natural, as if the slight humiliation she had just suffered had not affected her at all.
She does live frugally and works part-time, because she's sensible and knows her parents work hard to earn money. Her father is in poor health, and her mother runs the family business alone; she doesn't want to spend money recklessly.
But that doesn’t mean she’s unsophisticated.
This does not mean that her family is not wealthy.
Her parents run a jewelry and jade business on the border. Growing up, she was exposed to jade, diamonds, and colored gemstones. To be honest, she may have seen just as many good things as Lin Wanqing. However, her parents taught her not to flaunt her wealth.
Before entering the fitting room, she paused and looked at a brooch in the glass cabinet.
"By the way, could I take a look at that pink diamond brooch?"
The sales assistant immediately perked up: "Of course."
When Shi Luyu came out, she was wearing a misty pink satin dress.
The dress was neatly tailored, with a perfectly fitted waistline that accentuated her slender shoulders and neck, and her fair, translucent skin. She didn't possess Lin Wanqing's bright and flamboyant nobility, but rather a gentle and resilient beauty characteristic of the East. Standing there quietly, she was strikingly beautiful and captivating.
The sales assistant's eyes lit up: "Ms. Shi, this one suits you perfectly."
Lin Wanqing's face instantly turned ugly.
"Please wrap them all up for me, thank you." Shi Luyu turned to Lin Wanqing calmly: "Wanqing, didn't you say you were going to buy clothes? Why are you staring at me? Is there a style you like among the items I bought? I can give you that set."
Seeing Lin Wanqing's unpleasant expression, she added:
"Don't worry, it's free, and there's no need for any reason to thank me. I'll give it away whenever I want."
Although Shi Luyu felt bad about spending the money, her parents had always said that if a problem could be solved with money, she should never hesitate to spend it. Her parents also didn't want her to be bullied.
Lin Wanqing gritted her teeth, her smile forced, and said, "No need." She turned and walked out.
……
When Shi Luyu returned home that evening, Xu Yuanjia was already there.
As soon as she opened the door, she smelled the aroma of hot food.
Xu Yuanjia sat at her small dining table, wearing a light dark brown jacket over a soft white T-shirt. She leaned back in her chair, her long legs stretched out lazily, as if she had already made her small apartment her own territory.
Food brought from the night market was laid out on the table.
There was lemongrass roasted chicken, coconut sticky rice, tom yum soup, as well as her favorite mango smoothie and a box of fried shrimp cakes.
Shi Luyu was stunned: "Brother, how did you get in?"
Xu Yuanjia looked up, his tone matter-of-fact: "You gave me a spare key."
"That's for emergencies."
"I was hungry," he said frankly. "It was an emergency."
Shi Luyu: "..."
Her gloomy mood from the whole day was inexplicably relieved by those words.
Xu Yuanjia raised an eyebrow when he saw the shopping bag in her hand:
"Going shopping?"
Shi Luyu paused in her action of changing her shoes.
Unsure of her own feelings, by the time she reacted, she realized the words had already slipped out: "Lin Wanqing asked me to go shopping with her."
Xu Yuanjia's gaze lazily fell on her face. "Oh?"
Shi Luyu sat down, bent down to unpack her chopsticks, and casually asked, "Why did she call you A-Yuan?"
It tasted sour, and they didn't even call him "brother".
Xu Yuanjia slowly raised his eyes.
The little rabbit had been holding it in all day, but finally couldn't hold it in any longer.
There was a smile in his eyes, but he didn't immediately expose him, only lazily saying, "You can call me if you want."
Shi Luyu immediately turned her face away: "I don't want to."
Xu Yuanjia put down his chopsticks and moved closer to her. "So, what do you want to call me?"
Shi Luyu turned her head away, her face flushed, and remained silent.
Xu Yuanjia lowered his head, leaned close to her ear, and spoke in a lazy, low voice, with a hint of deliberate coaxing.
"Call me brother."
Shi Luyu's ears burned, but the sour feeling in her heart became even more pronounced.
She couldn't help but retort, "Why call me 'brother'? Of course it doesn't sound as nice as when people call you 'Ah Yuan'."
She was stunned for a moment after saying those words.
It's too sour.
It was so heavy that even she could hear it.
Xu Yuanjia finally laughed.
He laughed softly, his chest trembling slightly, and the joy in his eyes was almost impossible to suppress.
Shi Luyu, enraged and embarrassed, retorted, "What are you laughing at?"
Xu Yuanjia reached out, took the chopsticks from her hand, grasped her slender white wrist, and gently pulled her towards him.
"I can't hear what she's saying."
He pulled the person close, grinning lazily and mischievously, "Just one word from you and my bones will melt."
Shi Luyu's face instantly turned bright red.
"Brother, don't talk nonsense!" She reached out to push him.
Xu Yuanjia chuckled softly, his fingertips hooking the fabric of her clothes at her waist, trapping her between the dining table and himself. He leaned forward, his gaze slowly falling on her lips.
Shi Luyu was cornered by him, feeling both ashamed and angry. She reached out and covered his mouth, saying, "No."
Xu Yuanjia raised an eyebrow, about to say something, when Shi Luyu's phone suddenly rang.
Xu Yuanjia stretched out his long arm and took her phone.
Both of them saw the note at the same time: Mom.
Before Shi Luyu's smile could completely fade, Xu Yuanjia slid his finger and connected the call for her.
"Mom?" Shi Luyu asked quickly.
It seemed like someone was moving luggage over my mother's side; the noise was a bit loud.
"Lulu, your father and I have arrived in Taimai."
