Chapter 313: Chapter 313: How Embarrassing!
After dealing with the obnoxious Shang Wenfei, Huang Xiaolong felt pretty moved.
If scum like Yan Yi isn’t eliminated, it’s hard to say how many innocent girls will fall victim to him.
Huang Xiaolong decided that he absolutely had to bring ruin to Yan Yi!
He went to sleep.
When he woke up in the morning and checked his phone, Su Xiaoman had surprisingly sent him a WeChat message.
The message was simple, just three words— “I miss you.”
Huang Xiaolong had not seen Su Xiaoman for several days, and at this moment, seeing a WeChat message from her, he instinctively missed her too. On the spot, he decided that today he would go back to Huahu Street to see Su Xiaoman, take her out for a stroll, and if the opportunity arose, well, becoming a tad more intimate with her would be quite pleasurable!
In addition, Huang Xiaolong planned to take some money back for his uncle; after all, he had made quite a bit over the past few days.
After washing up and eating a hastily prepared breakfast, Huang Xiaolong drove to Litchi District’s Huahu Street.
In the car, Huang Xiaolong called his uncle, but no one answered, which left him speechless. But he figured his uncle would be just fine, since his uncle had the amulet Huang Xiaolong had given him.
After parking his car in the lot outside Huahu Street, Huang Xiaolong, with a laughing face, ran towards Su Xiaoman’s store.
It must be said that the smoked duck shop was extraordinarily busy. Even before lunchtime, the shop was almost fully occupied.
Poor little one was lying outside the shop, lazily sunbathing. Seeing Huang Xiaolong, it immediately sprang up and ran enthusiastically to Huang Xiaolong, rubbing its body against Xiaolong’s trouser leg.
“Haha Little one, have you been well fed with smoked duck while staying with Sister Xiaoman? Look at you; you’ve obviously put on weight.” Huang Xiaolong squatted down and patted the poor little one’s head.
Inside the shop, Su Xiaoman had hired several waiters, bustling around in a flustered manner. With a glowing blush on her face, she bore a contented and happy smile.
“Sister Xiaoman.” Huang Xiaolong shouted to the shop.
Hearing Huang Xiaolong’s voice, Su Xiaoman’s delicate body shivered. She looked towards the voice, and her eyes met Huang Xiaolong’s, inducing a warm sense of happiness that engulfed her entire being.
“Little Long” Su Xiaoman called out once and quickly ran out of the shop.
Today, Su Xiaoman hadn’t applied any makeup. Her hair was randomly tied up, and her dress was very simple – just a plain, light-colored short-sleeved shirt, with tight jeans that accentuated her tall, slender legs. Her tender and flawless face was absent of any defects, her big eye truly captivating.
A goddess is indeed a goddess, even without makeup, still unparalleled in beauty.
“Sister Xiaoman, your business is booming.” Huang Xiaolong laughed.
“Yes, Little Long, the business is getting better day by day.” Su Xiaoman with her eyes full of longing, fondly stared at Huang Xiaolong.
“Sister Xiaoman, take a break today. Let’s go out and have some fun.” Huang Xiaolong grinned.
“Oh…but, Little Long, I’m afraid I might be too busy…” Su Xiaoman missed Huang Xiaolong, each day without him felt like years, and she couldn’t wait to hang out with him, but she was also concerned about the business.
“Hahaha Sister Xiaoman, You can never earn enough money, you need to know how to balance work and leisure.” Without allowing any argument, Huang Xiaolong grabbed Su Xiaoman’s hand and led her out of Huahu Street.
The adorable little one was wagging its tail trying to follow them but Huang Xiaolong promptly sent it back to guard the shop.
The pair, just like a couple, hand in hand, left Huahu Street and started wandering around a nearby commercial area.
As they were walking, the duo passed by a large jewelry store. Huang Xiaolong glanced at it and then laughed. “Sister Xiaoman, let me buy you a piece of jewelry.”
He had initially planned to buy Su Xiaoman a car for commuting, but he never got around to it. Now seeing the jewelry store, Huang Xiaolong decided spontaneously to buy her a decent gift.
After all, I’ve made money, I can’t let my future wife lose out.
Moreover, Su Xiaoman is so beautiful, yet she doesn’t have any valuable jewelry.
“Little Long… there’s no need… this… this store’s jewelry is high end and expensive…”, Su Xiaoman shook her head. “It’s unnecessary…”
Although the smoked duck shop was doing well, Su Xiaoman would never waste even a penny, she saved what money she could because, in her view, all the money belonged to Huang Xiaolong.
“Sister Xiaoman, don’t worry. To tell you, I’ve made so much money recently. How can I let my wife feel inadequate?” Huang Xiaolong said with a laugh.
Hearing Huang Xiaolong refer to her as his ‘wife’, Su Xiaoman was so touched that she was almost in tears.
Just then, Huang Xiaolong’s cellphone rang.
He checked the caller ID on the phone, and it was a call from Fang Shijie.
He answered the phone.
“Mr. Huang, sorry for the interruption. Are you available now?” Fang Shijie politely asked over the phone.
“Oh… I’m out shopping. What is it?” Huang Xiaolong replied nonchalantly.
“Well, Mr. Huang, about the incident yesterday, my wife, daughter, and I are all very, very grateful to you. This morning, I withdrew 200,000 cash from the bank. This is the payment for you. Why don’t I bring it over now?” Fang Shijie laughed.
“That’s fine. I just need some cash now. Bring it over.” Huang Xiaolong nodded.
Then he gave Fang Shijie the address of the jewelry store.
He ended the call.
“Hahaha? Sister Xiaoman, look, someone’s bringing me money again.” Huang Xiaolong laughed. “Come on, Sister Xiaoman, we’re definitely picking out some beautiful jewels today.”
With that, Huang Xiaolong pulled Su Xiaoman into the jewelry store.
He took her to the jade counter, “Sister Xiaoman, pick out a jade bracelet first. With your excellent skin, wearing a jade bracelet will make you look even more beautiful.”
“Little Long… it’s really expensive…” Su Xiaoman looked at the price tags on various jade bracelets, even the cheapest one was close to 20,000 yuan.
Huang Xiaolong didn’t care at all. He pointed to the one he chose and told the salesgirl, “Let me see this jade bracelet.”
“Sir, you have a really good eye! This jade bracelet is a natural feicui bracelet with ice and green, it’s very beautiful! It will suit your girlfriend so well!” The salesgirl enthusiastically showed Huang Xiaolong the jade bracelet he had chosen.
The price of this feicui bracelet was 120,000 yuan.
“No, Little Long… it’s too expensive…” Seeing the price, Su Xiaoman’s heart trembled.
Her allowance for jewelry was already maxed out around 1-2 thousand yuan. This… 120 thousand? Too frightening… too outrageous to imagine!
Just then, a woman’s voice full of disdain and sarcasm echoed, “Yo yo yo, isn’t this Su Xiaoman? Why are you in a jewelry store? I heard you are not doing well, even struggling for meals… Could it be, you came here to steal?”
Huang Xiaolong, hearing this, was immediately irritated.
Looking towards the voice, he saw a woman about the same age as Su Xiaoman, but in a much lower class in terms of looks and figure. She was all dolled up, covered with gold and silver, hanging on the arm of a man in his thirties who was balding. They walked straight into the jewelry store towards Huang Xiaolong and Su Xiaoman.
The woman looked at Su Xiaoman with contempt, then at Huang Xiaolong and scoffed. “This jade bracelet is not bad, I’ll take it. Su Xiaoman, stop looking, it’s useless even if you do, you can’t afford it. You are making a fool of yourself!”
