Lin Jie knew he had made an extremely wrong decision and shouldn't have impulsively agreed to accompany Li Ting for shopping.

From Henglong Plaza, to Wanda Plaza, and then to Baihui Square, they wandered through all the major malls and boutiques, but this girl just tries on without buying anything.

Looking at the energetic and tireless Li Ting, with his legs almost turning to noodles, Lin Jie walked into a cold drink shop, ordered a drink, and once he sat down, he was absolutely unwilling to get up again.

"With the time we spent shopping, I could have bought a hundred outfits."

Lin Jie complained discontentedly, "Didn't you say you were only buying two or three sets of clothes? You tried on so many nice outfits but didn't like any of them?"

Li Ting chuckled, "The school semester is starting soon. Look at me now, none of my old clothes will fit. I'm still losing weight, so the clothes I buy now won't fit for long either!"

"So, these two outfits must be chosen carefully, to be the most suitable and beautiful."

Seeing she wouldn't give up, Lin Jie flopped over the table, resting his chin on it, saying weakly, "I can't go on. If I keep shopping with you, I'll die from exhaustion."

"Call your cousin Zhou Ke over, let her accompany you!"

"Are you even a man? No real man would say he can't do it!" Li Ting mocked him.

Lin Jie sipped his drink apathetically and ignored her.

"Come on, shop with me a little more, and I'll treat you to a gourmet dinner, a seafood buffet for 568 per person!" Li Ting tempted enthusiastically.

Lin Jie gave her a sideways glance, disdainfully, "I'm about to die of exhaustion. Even if you put Dragon Liver and Phoenix Gall in front of me, I wouldn't have the appetite to eat!"

Seeing Lin Jie still unmoved, Li Ting put on a pitiful expression!

"Lin Jie, do you know? In the past, while watching my peers shop for pretty clothes, all I could ask was, 'Do you have these in oversized?'

"Can you understand the envy, jealousy, and pain within me?"

"Now, I finally have the right to wear beautiful clothes and enjoy the fun of shopping. Can't you help make this happen for me, let me unleash to the fullest?"

"Of course, I'll make that happen for you!"

Lin Jie sat up straight, lazily saying, "I'm not stopping you from continuing to shop. Shop for eight days and nights straight; I won't stop you, as long as you don't drag me along!"

Seeing Lin Jie unmoved, Li Ting got deflated, saying helplessly, "Let's return to Henglong Plaza then. Those two outfits are my favorites so far; let's buy those two."

Finally seeing the journey's end, Lin Jie regained his energy and returned to Henglong Plaza with Li Ting, heading straight for a boutique!

Unexpectedly, they found the door shut against them.

The perfectly fine boutique was closed, with a "temporarily closed" sign hanging!

Lin Jie peered through the curtain, vaguely seeing people moving inside, confusedly saying, "Strange, it's the peak time for shoppers, and this store is closed? Are they going bankrupt?"

Li Ting pressed against the shop window, peering inside, saying, "Silly, you don't get it, do you?"

"I heard if this boutique has esteemed guests, they will clear the place, serving the customer exclusively."

"Oh, isn't that about driving away and offending many customers?" Lin Jie was puzzled!

Li Ting curled her lips, "The businessmen are smart! Such honorable guests are either wealthy or noble, with an impressive status. Each purchase is at least over a hundred thousand, and it even serves as invisible advertisement!"

"Hospitably serving them, offending a few ordinary customers doesn't matter!"

"I just wonder who they are hosting this time?"

She said admiringly, "The budget my mom gave me is only enough to buy one off-season discounted item here. If only I could enjoy such service one day!"

"With your abilities, finding a successful husband to achieve this is clearly impossible!"

Lin Jie analyzed confidently, "But fortunately, you have a smart head and a slim chance to achieve this through your efforts."

"Are you praising me or dissing me?" Li Ting glared at Lin Jie.

Lin Jie didn't pick up on that, saying, "Don't you have one more outfit you like? Let's go buy that first, then come back. The shop might be open by then!"

"That's the only option then!"

Just as Li Ting was gloomily about to turn away, the boutique door suddenly opened, and with the escort of several pretty female clerks bidding farewell, six to seven people walked out of the boutique.

At the center was a well-proportioned woman wearing a large sun hat and sunglasses that covered half of her face.

Lin Jie felt a bit familiar looking at her, yet couldn't identify her, but he recognized the man next to her, Han Wenbin, whom he had met a few times.

Han Wenbin noticed Lin Jie too, and nodded slightly as a greeting.

The woman shielded in the middle also noticed Lin Jie, paused slightly, then walked over to him.

She approached Lin Jie, removed her sunglasses, and smiled lightly, "Hello, we meet again! Thank you so much for your warning that night, or else I'd have suffered a big loss!"

Standing beside Lin Jie, Li Ting recognized the visitor's face and couldn't help exclaiming, "Xiaoxiao!"

After Chen Lan revealed Xiaoxiao's insider news last time, Lin Jie searched online specifically but found hardly any related reports, possibly because the case was under police investigation!

Only in the following days, did the internet reveal that Xiaoxiao had major disputes with her original agency, both sides ending unpleasantly.

Several confirmed concerts following were also canceled due to the dispute.

Lin Jie didn't expect to have the chance to meet Xiaoxiao again.

Seeing the popular idol again, Lin Jie felt a bit excited and carefully chose his words, "I'm glad I could help. My sister and I both love your songs, and we hope you continue to make more beautiful music!"

At this point, Han Wenbin also approached, frowned, and asked, "Xiaoxiao, you know him?"

Xiaoxiao nodded, "He's the enthusiastic fan who warned me about the problem with the drink!"

Han Wenbin stared at Lin Jie for a while, then said somewhat gloomily, "Why are you everywhere! Never mind, you deserve credit for helping Xiaoxiao, which also means helping me!"

He glanced at Li Ting beside Lin Jie, waved to a woman who looked like a manager, who came jogging over!

Han Wenbin pointed at Lin Jie and then at Li Ting, saying to her, "Whatever these two purchase in your store today, charge it to me!"

Having said that, he and Xiaoxiao left Henglong Plaza amid the crowd's escort.

Li Ting felt like she was dreaming and only snapped back after Xiaoxiao and the others had gone far, repeatedly asking, "Lin Jie, what did he mean? Is he going to pay for us? Should we go shopping?"

"Shop, why not shop!"

Lin Jie said fiercely, "Back then, he used his methods to pocket the house sale money and kicked me out of the hospital. I always remembered that, let's spend some of his money for release!"

"We should not only buy your clothes but also mine and Miaomiao's!"

"Let's make this a big shopping spree!"

Saying this, Lin Jie looked at that manager, asking, "Can we enjoy the exclusive clearance service?"

"You two are now our honored guests, please!" The manager's face practically blossomed with a smile!
