nNing Meng’s eyes brightened.

nIt was the new handbag by Chanel in that year. She had long had her eyes on it but she had not bought it. She never thought that Zhen Shanmei would buy it for her.

n“Thanks!”

n

n

nNing Meng held it in her hands with great care, but she soon saw a puzzled look on Zhen Shanmei’s face. Zhen Shanmei was staring at her and it seemed as though she was waiting for her to say something.

nNing Meng was puzzled.

nShe thought about it for a while. Then, she asked a probing question. “Don’t tell me you want to ask me to pay for this gift that you prepared for me?”

nZhen Shanmei was speechless.

n

n

nShe hesitated for a while before taking out another green purse with the same design. “I’ll give you one more gift.”

nSurely, she would understand by now.

nNing Meng was even more surprised and she grabbed it without any hesitation. “Wow! You’re indeed a cute little darling! I love you!”

nZhen Shenmei saw that Ning Meng was still clueless, and so, she made another decision resolutely. She took out a small cardholder and handed it to her. “There’s one more here.”

n

n

nNing Meng took it with a vague facial expression. Finally, she seemed to understand something and she frowned slightly. “You mean that…”

nZhen Shanmei was slightly nervous when she saw Ning Meng like that. “Don’t cry, please. I don’t know how to console people. I’ll do anything for you as long as you’re not crying.”

nNing Meng soon put the cardholder and purse into the handbag. She hugged them in her arms and said, “There’s a small green bag from Hermès too. Although its color is a little bit too dark and it doesn’t suit a beautiful young lady like me, I definitely won’t cry if you buy it for me.”

nZhen Shanmei was speechless.

nShe felt like she was being framed. “Are you kidding me?”

nNing Meng acted pitiful and weak, her eyes darkening as she seemed quite sad. She remained quiet. Zhen Shanmei could not take it anymore and raised her hands up in surrender. “Fine, I’ll buy it for you!”

n

n

nNing Meng stood up straighter and led her out of the mansion. “You must fulfill your promise. We’ll go and buy it now!”

nZhen Shanmei followed behind her and got into the car. She asked carefully, “Are you really not upset?”

nNing Meng started up the car and said coldly, “You thought that I would be just like you, acting like the world has come to an end when you broke up? Women should really be more elegant and graceful!”

nZhen Shanmei admired her greatly. “You’re wonderful!”

nNing Meng had nothing to say to that.

nThey reached the shopping mall where Zhen Shanmei bought the Hermès bag for her and afterward, Ning Meng treated Zhen Shanmei to a high tea. She even bought a few clothes for Zhen Shanmei to repay her kindness.

nAt night, they went to enjoy a self-service seafood steamboat buffet which cost around RMB 1,005 per person.

nNing Meng chirped while she was walking. “This dinner is on you!”

n

n

nZhen Shanmei asked her, “Can you still eat some more?”

nNing Meng then replied, “I want to forget my anger and eat all the food I want!”

nZhen Shanmei was speechless.

nThey found their seats and sat down. Zhen Shanmei went to the washroom shortly after.

nWhile waiting for the food, Ning Meng’s phone vibrated for a bit. She picked it up and realized that it was a message from Qi Shan.

nQi Shan: ?

nNing Meng replied to his message.

nNing Meng: ?

nQi Shan: I received nine messages telling me that the credit card was being swiped.

nNing Meng: It means that your wife is normal. Don’t worry.

nQi Shan: …Naive woman. Why don’t you spend more time capturing the boss’s heart when you have the time?

nNing Meng’s eyes darkened as she read that.

nNing Meng: Does he have a new lover now?

n

n

nQi Shan: How did you know about it?

nQi Shan soon retrieved that message, but not before she had read that, and then he sent a new message to her.

nQi Shan: That’s not true. How could it be? The boss adores you the most!

nNing Meng bit her lips as she stared at the phone.

nWhen Zhen Shanmei had reminded her about it just now, she had thought that it might be a beautiful misunderstanding, so, she had been in a good mood and had tried her best to make Zhen Shanmei buy things for her.

nHowever, after what Qi Shan had said…

nHer heart started to sink slowly.
