Chapter 1247: Chapter 1244: Huang Xiaojue’s Whereabouts 5

“Thank you.”

From start to finish, he was never her boyfriend, nor was he any sort of male confidant. He didn’t even qualify as a close male friend—he was just her university classmate.

That’s all.

In her lifetime, Yan Xixi never had any male confidants; she didn’t enjoy playing with such ambiguities.

The weather was beautiful, with the sun shining brightly.

The boutique store lay in the shadow of sunlight. That massive advertisement, glittering at night, was quite upscale.

Yan Xixi got out of the car and paused. She gazed at the sign for quite some time before slowly walking in.

The new clerk didn’t recognize her and thought she was a customer, greeting her. She smiled, “I’m just browsing.”

This season’s new designs had arrived—the layout of the racks felt even more upscale. There were details concerning customer culture, brand introductions, the arrangement of small gifts, and the setup of the rest area… This boutique decidedly portrayed a sense of class.

She wandered to a newly decorated background wall and stopped. She remembered that before she went to the South Country, this didn’t look like this. It had been replaced and looked very chic.

While she was observing, a polite voice came from behind her, “Madam, these are our latest designs. Would you like me to introduce them to you?”

She turned around.

The person suddenly went silent, staring at her intently.

She spoke first, grinning, “Hey, Zhou Xiaoxuan.”

Zhou Xiaoxuan looked as if she’d seen a ghost, then after a while, she shouted, “Hey… Xu Xiaoya… Xu Xiaoya… look here, who has come?”

When the clerks heard Zhou Xiaoxuan shout, they curiously looked over.

Zhou Xiaoxuan was unperturbed: “Everyone, look if you want, the real boss is here. Many of you haven’t met the big boss behind the scenes, right? This great beauty is the big boss behind our store; quick, come pay your respects to the big boss…”

The service girls were immediately stunned.

Xu Xiaoya came out upon hearing the commotion: “Zhou Xiaoxuan, you’re yelling again… don’t disturb the customers…”

She took a clear look at Yan Xixi, and with more delight than Zhou Xiaoxuan, she shouted, “Xixi, why are you here? Come, sit in the lounge.”

The three of them headed into the rest area, Yan Xixi took out two wedding invitations and smiled, “I’m here to deliver wedding invitations to you both.”

Xu Xiaoya was overjoyed, “That’s wonderful. Xixi, you’ll definitely be the most beautiful bride in the world… haha… Can I be your bridesmaid?”

Yan Xixi hadn’t replied yet, but Zhou Xiaoxuan scoffed, “Don’t be a bridesmaid anymore, all those bridesmaid turns and you’ll never get married.”

Yan Xixi also laughed.

Zhou Xiaoxuan scrutinized the wedding invitations, “Yan Xixi, I’m really curious, how much dowry did Third Young Master give you?”

She responded leisurely, “That’s a secret.”

Xu Xiaoya was unimpressed, “Zhou Xiaoxuan, you’re so vulgar, is marriage only about money?”

“Pfft! If not for money, then what? Love? How long can love really last? Can love be eaten? Nowadays it’s only leftover women and ugly women who claim they don’t love money; in truth, it’s because no men are willing to spend money on them. If a truly handsome man chased after them crying and begging to shower them with expensive gifts and a mansion, would they refuse? Would they?? But there are no men willing to spend on them, so they’ve no choice but to criticize other women for being money-minded out of envy and jealousy… like a bunch of paupers heroically proclaiming: treat money like dirt, begging is better. When you can’t have something, you can only pretend to be aloof, but honestly, it’s better to not say anything.”

“Then why are you saying so much?”
