"Isn't that right? I heard that Miss Xi sold a house a few days ago. Could it be that this one here is the buyer?" Her companion looked Su Mingxian up and down, disdainfully saying, "Dressed like this, how could she possibly afford Yun Qiao's house? Even with a seventy-five percent discount, she probably still couldn't manage it. Miss Xi's taste in friends is getting worse and worse."
Su Mingxian, who had been unfairly targeted, shot a cold glance in their direction.
"Shut your mouth." Xi Shanshan was instantly furious. She turned to the woman with the big waves and said, "Xi Shuangshuang, don't speak so confidently. You never know who will end up losing; don't let your tongue slip when the wind blows, hmph."
With that, she pushed past her and took Su Mingxian away.
Xi Shuangshuang's expression darkened. "Xi Shanshan, you don't need to be so stubborn; you'll have your moment to cry."
Unfortunately, all she received in response was a retreating figure, which made her slam her palm down hard on the table in frustration.
Her companions exchanged glances and one said, "Sister Shuang, calm down. Xi Shanshan is just blowing off steam; we all know what she's like."
"Exactly. Selling a house and giving someone a seventy-five percent discount? If Xi Group entrusted her with anything, she'd probably leave them in the lurch."
"So what’s there to worry about?"
But Xi Shuangshuang still felt uneasy. "Go find out who that woman next to her is and what she does."
"Come on, it's probably just another poor person trying to cling to Xi Shanshan. We've seen plenty of those."
"Just go do it; stop wasting time with your nonsense."
Xi Shuangshuang turned her head and shot a fierce glare at the woman. Although the woman was dressed casually, her demeanor was calm and composed. One's aura cannot be faked; a little investigation would surely bring peace of mind.
The future leader of the Xi Group could only be from their branch.
...
"I don't want this one; wrap up the rest for me," Xi Shanshan said, exuding an air of extravagance as she led Su Mingxian into the mall, embarking on a shopping spree. The sales clerks were thrilled, loving such wealthy customers.
Su Mingxian frowned. "Shanshan, why buy so much? You can't wear it all; isn't that a waste?"
"Sister Xian, you need to change your mindset. What's the point of making money if you don't spend it?" After saying this, she pulled out a stack of cash from her bag. While checking out, she continued, "Just like me—my dad has built such a vast fortune. If I don’t spend it, someone else will. Why should outsiders benefit?"
She added, "You’re the same. With Brother Shen making so much money, who are you saving it for? Who knows how many little vixens will be waiting to spend it in the future?"
Su Mingxian: ...
Before she could respond, Xi Shanshan directly shoved a shopping bag into her hands. "These are all for you."
"For me?" Su Mingxian quickly waved her hands. "These clothes are meant for young girls like you; they won’t suit me."
"Why wouldn’t they suit you? You're only in your twenties, just a couple of years older than me. It’s the perfect age to wear them! Why not?" With that, she pressed a strapless evening gown into Su Mingxian's hands.
Su Mingxian hurriedly replied, "No way, I'm already a mother of two. I should keep this for myself."
Seeing that Su Mingxian was adamant about not wanting it, Xi Shanshan felt quite frustrated. "Sister Xian, this industry is all about appearances. If you don't dress well, people will laugh at you."
Su Mingxian couldn't help but twitch her lips. As an ordinary person, she didn't need to walk the runway; she just wanted to wear something casual and fashionable. Wearing such formal attire to buy groceries or go shopping was simply too extravagant.
Clearly affected by something significant, Xi Shanshan dragged Su Mingxian into a shopping spree, buying clothes and other items. However, Su Mingxian had other matters to attend to.
"Shanshan, actually, there might still be a chance to secure that piece of land by the end of the year."
Upon hearing this, Xi Shanshan immediately turned around, excitement lighting up her face. "Sister Xian, are you serious?"
