Almighty Sweet Queen is Really Rich!

Chapter 699: Chapter 699: Only When Lacking Something Will You Desire It

Su Li picked up the glass vase containing the peach blossom branch and walked to the guest room where she was temporarily staying. As she walked, she curiously asked, ”Did Mr. Qi need me for something?”

Recently, although Feng Huaijin had not returned to Ao Shi Group’s Jiang City branch, he had been handling matters at the head office these days and was often absent.

When Su Li reminded Feng Huaijin, a rush of blood surged through him, and a flush quietly crept up his ears like a climbing vine. He turned his head, coughed lightly, and said nonchalantly, with an air of indifference, ”Thank you for making my mother so happy recently, so tell me what you like, and I’ll get you something.”

Su Li: ”...”

Really?

Su Li looked at Feng Huaijin’s calm demeanor, unable to discern whether he was genuinely grateful for her accompanying Madam Feng, or if it was because of the upcoming Lantern (Valentine’s) Day.

After some thought, Su Li said, ”You only desire what you’re lacking. I have money, so I can get anything I want. There’s nothing I particularly need.”

In the past, she always fantasized about getting excellent exam results, going on a family trip to Europe, or hoping her dad would get her a new phone.

She used to have countless wishes and expectations, but now... everything feels meaningless.

Because she could achieve all of these things with money!

So now, Su Li has adopted a Buddhist-like detachment.

Feng Huaijin: ”...”

Ha, this little girl Su Li has plenty of money, and there’s nothing she particularly wants! Because if she wants it, she’ll get it.

A simple sentence overflowing with that undeniable air of wealth, all she needed was a sign on her forehead that read ”I’m not short on cash!”

Looking at the matter-of-fact Su Li, Feng Huaijin always felt an illusion arise in him that he was being kept by a rich woman, Su Li...

This woman Su Li... she really can’t be treated like any ordinary woman, can she?

Unable to get useful information from Su Li, Feng Huaijin turned to a few friends.

Xiao Heng’s suggestion was of no practical use, so Feng Huaijin simply ignored it.

[Mu Qingmei: Although Su Li isn’t short on money, women always like clothes, jewelry, and cosmetics. Brother Qi, how about buying a box of lipsticks?]

[Mu Qingmei: Or you could make something yourself.]

Feng Huaijin thought Mu Qingmei’s suggestions were practical and worth considering.

However, Mu Qingmei seemed busy sorting out Chenguang Entertainment under her second brother, Mu Shian, at the moment.

Thus, after leaving Ao Shi Group’s An City head office, he didn’t go directly back to the Feng Family’s old mansion but drove to the largest shopping plaza in An City.

With the Lantern Festival and Valentine’s Day approaching, the mall was bustling with last-minute preparations, and pink heart-shaped balloons were visible at a glance.

Following the advice of his only female friend, Mu Qingmei, Feng Huaijin went to an internationally renowned brand’s counter.

Feng Huaijin vaguely remembered that Ao Shi Group had business dealings with this brand several years ago.

As soon as he entered, the lady at the counter smiled warmly at him, ”Excuse me, sir, are you here to buy a Valentine’s gift?”

Feng Huaijin coughed lightly and said, ”No.”

No?

The lady at the counter understood; so they’re not boyfriend and girlfriend yet.

Looking at the rows of lipstick shades on the counter, Feng Huaijin frowned, his eyebrows as sharp as distant mountains. What are all these flashy things...

The lady at the counter proactively asked, ”Are you having trouble deciding, sir? I can recommend some options.”

Feng Huaijin nodded.

So the lady at the counter picked up a tester lipstick and swiped it on her arm, smiling as she said, ”Sir, this 053 Barbie Pink is a lipstick shade that girls love to chase after lately...”
