Lu Chuan, Mu Nanqing, Mu Xiaoqing, and Cao Bin arrived at the entrance of the mall.

As the only large mall in the county town, it was bustling with people and full of excitement.

As the group walked in, Mu Xiaoqing said, “This Qianda Mall was also built by the Wu family’s investment.

All employees of the Wu family’s companies can get a discount here, and the higher their position, the bigger the discount they enjoy.”

She turned her head to Cao Bin and asked, “My dear, what kind of discount can you get?”

Cao Bin said somewhat proudly, “Not much, just a 30% discount off the entire store.”

Following his words, Mu Xiaoqing raised her head and glanced at Lu Chuan, muttering, “See?

This is what a real good job looks like.

Can you get this kind of treatment working at the clinic?”

The four of them entered the mall and after strolling around for a while, they stood in front of a luxury brand bag store.

With a face full of anticipation, Mu Xiaoqing said, “Let’s go inside and take a look.

After I buy a bag, we’ll join you guys at the discount counter over there to buy some cheaper ones.

You two watch out, the bags here are quite expensive, don’t get them dirty; if you do, we won’t cover for you when you can’t afford to pay.”

After speaking, she walked into the store with Cao Bin arm in arm.

Lu Chuan said with a smile, “She really has a sense of superiority, as if she’s convinced we can’t afford the bags here.”

Mu Nanqing replied, “That’s just the way she is, don’t stoop to her level.

Although the bags here are indeed pretty expensive, we’ll just look around.”

Lu Chuan smiled without saying anything.

Since they had already agreed to buy bags, he wasn’t going to let Mu Nanqing go back empty-handed.

The two followed them into the store.

Even though they said they would just look, Mu Nanqing’s eyes were still attracted by the dazzling array of beautiful bags in the store.

No woman can resist an ultra-fashionable bag.

Mu Nanqing was saying no, but that was because she had been frugal all these years.

Even though Lu Chuan was paying her a high salary now, she hadn’t thought about spending tens of thousands on a bag.

At that moment, Mu Xiaoqing took an interest in a particular bag.

She excitedly held it up for Mu Nanqing to see: “Cousin, look, isn’t this bag beautiful?”

Mu Nanqing took a look and nodded, “It’s pretty nice.”

Mu Xiaoqing said smugly, “Of course it is.

How could a bag that caught my eye not be beautiful?”

“Do you know how much this bag costs?

Over forty thousand!

Even after the discount, it’s still over thirty thousand.

Cao Bin has already agreed to buy it for me, he’s gone to pay for it.

Are you jealous?”

Mu Nanqing forced a laugh, “Not at all.”

“Yeah right, you’re just pretending.

I can see you’re practically drooling with envy,” boasted Mu Xiaoqing as she admired her new bag, overjoyed.

Lu Chuan came over and asked Mu Nanqing, “Nanqing, do you see anything you like?”

Mu Xiaoqing gave him a glance and said, “You talk as if you can afford it.

I mean, show some sincerity, but don’t bite off more than you can chew.”

Mu Nanqing also told Lu Chuan, “We’re just looking.

I don’t really like the bags here.”

But Lu Chuan insisted, “Since we’re here, and the bags aren’t that expensive, let’s buy one.”

Mu Xiaoqing’s face was full of disbelief, “Are you addicted to bluffing?

Didn’t I tell you that after I finish buying, I’ll take you to the discount counter to buy some stock goods?

Why are you pretending to be a big spender here?”

Lu Chuan smirked, “So you think you’re the only one in the world who can afford the bags here?”

Mu Xiaoqing didn’t want to waste words, “Fine, fine, fine, if you’re in such a hurry to throw your money away, go ahead.

But I’ve said it; Cao Bin’s discount can only be used once a month, we’re not going to help you get a discount, don’t think about taking advantage of us.”

Lu Chuan ignored her and said to Mu Nanqing, “Come on, pick one you like, give me some face.”

Mu Nanqing reluctantly nodded and then pointed to a bag she was really taken with, “I think that one is not bad.”

Lu Chuan and Mu Xiaoqing both turned their heads to look.

Suddenly, Mu Xiaoqing burst into a huge laugh, rocking back and forth.

Both Lu Chuan and Mu Nanqing were puzzled.

At that moment, Cao Bin came over after paying, saw Mu Xiaoqing laughing like that and asked, “My dear, what’s the matter?”

Mu Xiaoqing pointed to the bag Mu Nanqing was interested in and said, “My cousin wants that bag.”

After glancing at it, Cao Bin couldn’t help but laugh too, then added, “Cousin, you really have good taste, but that bag is the most expensive one in the store.

It’s a globally limited edition, costing over a million.”

Mu Nanqing’s eyes widened in shock, she hadn’t expected the bag to be so expensive, and awkwardly said, “Oh…

I see, well I’ll just look at others then.”

Lu Chuan, however, walked straight up to the bag and said, “No need to look further, let’s go with this one.”

Mu Xiaoqing and Cao Bin both widened their eyes in disbelief, not expecting Lu Chuan to actually consider buying it after hearing the price.

“Is this guy joking?

A bag worth over a million, how can he afford it?” Cao Bin said.

Mu Xiaoqing’s eyes swirled, and she quickly ran up to Lu Chuan and blocked his way, saying, “You’re not planning to steal something, are you?

Let me tell you, there are cameras everywhere here, don’t think about dragging us down with your crazy plan!”

Lu Chuan was speechless, “When did I ever say I was going to steal anything?”

Mu Xiaoqing glared, “Then what, are you planning to rob them?”

Lu Chuan couldn’t help but give a laugh mixed with exasperation, “Are you sick?

I’m going to buy a bag with money, stop blocking me here.”

Mu Xiaoqing refused to budge, and directly shouted at the sales associates, “Come quick, this guy is trying to rob you of your bags!”

Hearing this, several sales associates rushed over, eyeing Lu Chuan warily, one of them even pulled out a baseball bat.

Lu Chuan clenched his fists, feeling an urge to punch Mu Xiaoqing.

He looked at the clerks and said, “Don’t get me wrong, I want to buy this bag.

Please bring it over for me to take a look.”

Mu Xiaoqing immediately said, “Don’t listen to his nonsense; he can’t afford it!”

Lu Chuan turned to Mu Xiaoqing, “Whether I can afford it or not is not for you to say, is it?”

Mu Xiaoqing said, “You work at a rundown clinic, how much money can you have?

That bag is over a million; you probably couldn’t afford it even if you worked your whole life.

I’m helping you here.

If you do something stupid and illegal, no one will be able to save you!”

Lu Chuan, fuming, took out his bank card and said, “Then I’ll pay first and look at it afterwards.

Is that okay now?”

Mu Xiaoqing was stunned, momentarily at a loss for words.

Mu Nanqing walked over, tugged at Lu Chuan, and said, “Xiaochuan, maybe we should just drop it.”

Lu Chuan said, “I must buy this bag for you today.”

He then handed his bank card to the clerk, saying, “Go ahead and swipe it.”

Mu Xiaoqing, with a displeased face, said, “I want to see if you really can pull out that one million-plus!”

A group of people moved over to the cashier.

Cao Bin whispered, “Does he really have that much money?

Over a million in cash, that’s not a small amount.”

Mu Xiaoqing snorted dismissively and said, “It would be strange if he had it.

Want to bet he’ll say something like he took the wrong bank card in a minute?

This guy is just bloviating and can’t come down from his high horse.”

Cao Bin nodded, feeling this made more sense.

The clerk, about to swipe Lu Chuan’s bank card, received a phone call.

After the call, the clerk’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Mu Xiaoqing urged, “Just swipe his card to see if there’s enough money in there.”

The clerk’s gaze fell on Mu Nanqing and she murmured, “No…

no need to swipe the card.

Our boss just called and said this bag…

it’s a gift for this young lady.”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes widened in shock.

Even Lu Chuan was somewhat astonished, not understanding what was going on.

He turned his head to look around, noticing a man in a suit outside the store smiling at him and giving a little wave.

Lu Chuan remembered this man was Wu Wei’s lackey.

This bag was a gift from Wu Wei?

Soon he received a text from Wu Wei: “Brother Lu Chuan, I didn’t know my sister-in-law would also be here and didn’t prepare a gift.

My subordinate told me you were going to the mall, so I asked him to send a bag for my sister-in-law as a little token of my appreciation.

Please don’t see it as an imposition.”

Lu Chuan smiled helplessly, thinking that Wu Wei was quite good at currying favor, gifting such an expensive bag.

Yet for the Wu Family Patriarch, such an amount was indeed trivial.

Mu Xiaoqing came back to her senses, staring at the clerk, demanding, “Given to her?

Why?”

The clerk replied, “This is what our boss wanted.

I’m not clear on the specifics.”

Mu Xiaoqing turned to face Mu Nanqing, teeth clenched with jealousy, and asked, “Cousin, what’s all this about?

Someone’s giving you such an expensive bag; surely you haven’t been up to any unsavory business behind the scenes?”

Mu Nanqing replied coolly, “Don’t talk nonsense.

I also don’t know what’s going on here.”

Lu Chuan stepped forward and said, “It’s a gift from a friend of mine.

He knew we were going to the mall, so he specifically sent a bag for Nanqing as a welcome gift.”

Mu Xiaoqing’s face showed disbelief, “Stop talking rubbish!

How could you possibly have such a wealthy friend!”

Lu Chuan shrugged, “Believe it or not.”

Mu Nanqing, standing by, instantly realized the bag must be a gift from the Wu Family Patriarch.

Lu Chuan turned to the clerk and said, “Since someone has made the purchase for us, please bring the bag over.”

The clerk quickly nodded and fetched the million-valued bag.

Mu Xiaoqing, green with envy, couldn’t fathom why no one was gifting her such an expensive bag.

Cao Bin was equally dumbfounded—gifting a bag worth over a million just like that, how rich does one have to be?

Considering the clerk’s comment about it being the boss’s decision, his eyes widened, and he said to Mu Xiaoqing, “This bag, could it be from the Wu Family Patriarch?”

Mu Xiaoqing was taken aback, then also felt it was very likely, especially since this was the Wu family’s mall, and only the Wu Family Patriarch could have such clout to give away a million-dollar bag with a single phone call.

But why would the Wu Family Patriarch give a bag to Mu Nanqing?

She hadn’t been around for years; the Wu family shouldn’t recognize her.

That’s when the clerk passed the bag to Mu Nanqing.

Mu Nanqing’s face lit up with joy, reaching out to take it.

Just at that moment, a lightbulb went off in Mu Xiaoqing’s head as if she had realized something, and she snatched the bag from the clerk’s hand.

Mu Nanqing frowned and asked Mu Xiaoqing, “What are you doing?”

Mu Xiaoqing sneered, “This bag wasn’t meant for you!

It was meant for me!”
