Chapter 326: Chapter 240: The Flower Has An Owner (Second Update)_1

"Wait a moment, you two."

The woman’s previously delicate voice became sharp, she strode up to the Shop Manager. "I’m taking this car." Her claim radiated confidence with an air of flamboyance.

However, this car was first chosen by Miss Mu." The shop manager appeared somewhat troubled. These were two parties that he, a mere salesman, couldn’t afford to offend, placing him in a tough situation.

"So what if she was the first to set eyes on it? Just look at her outfit. She clearly isn’t someone who could afford to buy such an expensive sports car." She scoffed derisively while looking at Mu Lin in complete contempt.

Hearing these words, the shop manager could only force a laugh, albeit he was full of disdain internally. He thought that Miss Mu was far better than this woman. Maybe she should consider the car that she is driving, which costs far more than a mere ten million Yuan.

Looking into those envious eyes, Mu Lin cocked an eyebrow. Was she being belittled again?

She glanced down at her casual outfit unconsciously. Granted, it was a bit more relaxed than the scarcely-clad woman in this colder weather, is this her fault too?

Mu Lin wouldn’t take the blame for this.

"So you’re saying, you can buy it?" Mu Lin sized up the woman, from top to bottom, then she turned to Qin Yan and delivered a line that almost infuriated the woman to death. "I don’t think this woman is worth the price." Her voice was filled with doubt.

What Mu Lin was implying was, the sports car was worth over ten million Yuan, and the woman standing before her was clearly not worth that price.

Besides, she never planned to give up something she had an eye on.

Upon hearing Mu Lin’s words, Qin Yan raised an eyebrow, "Then, in your opinion, what is she worth?" Not even a hint of frustration was apparent, instead, Qin Yan began to discuss the price with Mu Lin.

Mu Lin glanced around the room, her chin slightly raised, "That Beetle over there might match her worth." Over a hundred thousand yuan, seemed just about right. Oh, and surely it hasn’t become more expensive.

Looking at the car, Qin Yan burst into laughter, his gaze at Mu Lin became more profound. "Then, do you think you’re worth it?" He was referring to the two cars that Mu Lin wanted to buy.

"I..." A smile dawned across Mu Lin’s face, her eyes indifferent, "I’m priceless." Could this trashy car even stand a chance of comparing with her?

For Mu Lin, messing with her was equivalent to messing with a lethal weapon that could poison one to death.

"What a priceless commodity." This woman seemed more and more to his liking.

The man’s attitude startled the woman who had come with him, "Qin Ge~" The woman’s cutesy voice made Yang Hao’s skin crawl, involuntarily sending shivers down his spine; he felt nauseated.

Do all men fall for women like that?

The woman glared at Mu Lin. She’d struggled to get to where she was, to oust the woman by Qin Yan’s side. There’s no way she’d be dethroned so easily. She’d retaliate if they were somewhere more discreet.

She was a bundle of nerves, yet nowhere to vent.

"It seems that your worth indeed matches the price of that beetle." The man’s gaze at the woman had already died down, after all, he was eyeing a different prey now, the woman in his arms, whom he had just once had sweet moments with, immediately became worthless to him.

If it were any other day, perhaps he would’ve let her pick, but since Mu Lin had just stated her price, he might as well abide by it, lest he upset his beauty.

Unfortunately, Mu Lin remained indifferent, yet the woman erupted in anger.

"Qin Yan, what is the meaning of this?" Does she only worth a mere hundred thousand Yuan?

"What I just said is what it meant." Qin Yan replied casually, with no intention of saving the woman’s face.

The woman was close to losing it. "Qin Yan, you’ve gone too far. I am, after all, the young lady of the Xiao family. How dare you say that I am only worth over a hundred thousand Yuan!" Xiao Min was on the verge of going insane.

She had put in great efforts to bring Qin Yan here today just for the limited-edition sports car which nobody in her family wanted to buy for her. But she hadn’t expected that it would be almost stolen from her.

The most important part is, the man who had been speaking gently to her just a moment ago was being sarcastic towards her after he saw this woman.

All this was because of this woman.

Alas, they say ’Why should a woman make life difficult for another woman’? Clearly, the mistake was the man’s, yet it’s always the women who get blamed. These facts are both frustrating and sorrowful.

"Miss Xiao..." Qin Yan suddenly burst into a soft laughter, "Do you really believe you bear resemblance with a high-society lady?" He must be joking. The Xiao family having such a ’famous’ young lady in Ming City, they must have done countless wrongs in their previous lifetimes;

It was indeed because of this that he indulged her today, but it also led him to discover a different kind of... woman.

"You..." At hearing this, Xiao Min felt dizzy with rage. She promptly redirected all the blame on Mu Lin.

It seems that today, Mu Lin can’t avoid shouldering the blame.

...

Miss Xiao.

Upon hearing these three words, Mu Lin raises an eyebrow.

Could this be the Miss Xiao that Hong Boyuan mentioned, the one he never even glanced at? She did catch a quick glimpse of Xiao Feng that day, the difference was quite stark.

Looking at Xiao Min, Mu Lin thinks, all the sales staff here are more appealing than she is. She has the look of a woman for sale, and at quite a low price at that.

Don’t ask Mu Lin why she knows such a term, after all, she’s seen Idol Dramas; even though she looks down on the plots and especially the female leads who are constantly manipulated by the supporting female characters.

Not paying any more attention to Xiao Min, Qin Yan steps a little forward looking at Mu Lin, his handsome face displaying a playful smile, "Miss Mu, our meeting today is a kind of fate. In this case, let me buy this car for you. What do you think?" What a grand gesture.

Unfortunately, Mu Lin simply glanced at him with an indifferent expression, "I’m sorry, but I don’t lack anything, money least of all. I don’t need your kindness, Mr. Qin. I fear I would be very uncomfortable if I really accepted this gift."

In plain terms, Mu Lin doesn’t need money.

"Hehe..." Hearing Mu Lin’s words, Qin Yan chuckles, the mirth in his gaze deepens. Such a prickly little thing, taming her would be quite interesting.

Mu Lin doesn’t know his thoughts and can’t bother to deal with such presumptuous people. She simply gestured to the Shop Manager to proceed with the formalities. After all, she has other things to attend to.

Busy.

Just as they were about to enter, a figure suddenly lunged towards Mu Lin’s direction; the target, undeniably, was her face.

Mu Lin’s eyes became a cold sharp gaze as she pushed Yang Hao aside and easily dodged the attack.

Caught off guard by the force of the attack, Xiao Min couldn’t stop herself and made a close encounter with the floor, rolling down the nearby stairs.

Onlookers immediately started gossiping, pointing and making comments.

Afterall, Xiao Min’s figure was rather attractive.

Mu Lin shook her head pityingly, casually observing the humiliating scene.

"What a self-inflicted disaster." Yang Hao sneered on the side. The one who hurts others will ultimately hurt themselves. Karma is punishing this woman who wanted to harm Mu Lin! She had witnessed Mu Lin’s strength herself.

Stumbling back to her feet from the fall, Xiao Min felt her entire body ache. She turned around to see the indifference in Qin Yan’s eyes and the mocking smile on Mu Lin’s face. The anger within her intensified. She decided to lunge at Mu Lin again.

Unfortunately, Mu Lin had no interest in playing these childish games with her.

"Stop." Mu Lin’s cool and indifferent voice echoed in everyone’s ears, making Xiao Min instinctively stop.

"As a doctor," Mu Lin continued leisurely, "I must remind you out of the goodness of my heart. If you don’t get your face treated and bandaged at the hospital, you might end up with a scar. Even two cosmetic surgeries might not be able to save you then."

Her face.

Hearing Mu Lin’s words, Xiao Min instinctively touched her face. The sting and the traces of blood on her hand terrified her. She glared at Mu Lin, then gave Qin Yan a pitiful look before stumbling away to hail a taxi to the hospital.

Her face was the most important thing now.

Anyway, Mu Lin had made a lasting impression on someone.

Once Xiao Min left.

"I never expected Mu Lin to have such a kind heart." He thought the girl standing before him was cold at heart, just like him. He was surprised to learn that Mu Lin was a doctor. He wondered where she worked, so that he could pay her a visit.

"I never thought that Mr. Qin could be so cruel." Mu Lin smirked, "She is your woman after all". He had heartlessly betrayed his devoted lover.

Upon hearing Mu Lin’s words, Qin Yan laughed, his radiant smile was dazzling. With profound eyes, he looked at Mu Lin, "Don’t you know, Ms. Mu, from the moment I laid my eyes on you, I couldn’t fit any other woman in my heart. Your words have hurt me a lot." Unfortunately, there wasn’t even the slightest trace of sadness in his eyes.

"It seems that you, Mr. Qin, are bound to be broken-hearted in this life." Mu Lin’s chilly words made Qin Yan flinch involuntarily. "After all, no matter what, I have...I am already engaged."
