Forced Pampering: Haughty Husband, Please Restrain Yourself

Chapter 1140: Chapter 1154: Can You Afford to Pay for This?

Li Meihua said, noticing Xu Jiajia’s crossed legs, and reached out to straighten them, ”Jiajia, how many times have I told you? A girl should stand and sit properly; only then will men like you.”

”Sister-in-law, isn’t it just us here?” Although Xu Jiajia said this, she straightened herself and glanced toward the door, then leaned closer to Li Meihua, ”Sister-in-law, after saying so much, do you think Brother Gu will really like me? Honestly, you might as well arrange for Brother Gu to meet us, then we can just drug or get him drunk. You’ve said before, Brother Gu is upright; I don’t believe he won’t take responsibility.”

”Pff—”

Lin Ruonan couldn’t help it and spat out a mouthful of water. By an unfortunate coincidence, the water splashed directly onto the two people opposite.

Li Meihua screamed and stood up, ”What is wrong with you? So vulgar, we’re wearing custom pieces from Pinge’s latest collection this year, and now it’s covered in your spit. Can you afford to compensate us?”

”I’m sorry, I’m sorry, how much were your outfits? I’ll pay for them,” Lin Ruonan felt embarrassed too, but the girl’s words were too surprising, which is why she couldn’t control herself.

Even though she wasn’t familiar with fashion brands, it happened that she knew Pinge’s clothes were Chen Yankun’s company’s products. She said and reached to call Chen Yankun.

”Pay? Can you afford it?” Xu Jiajia objected, not considering the woman opposite—how could she afford their outfits in those cheap clothes? Even if she could, Brother Gu was about to meet them soon; how could she face Brother Gu dressed like this?

She had liked Gu Haoyu at first sight when she saw him at Brother’s wedding at age 15, but she was young then and later lived abroad. Now returning home, her sister-in-law was trying hard to match them up—would such a golden opportunity be ruined by the woman in front of her?

Xu Jiajia glared angrily while sizing up Lin Ruonan, who was dialing a phone, sneering, ”How could Brother Gu’s company employ such a person? Maybe you’re just trying to leech off someone rich? Before you came, did you look in the mirror? With your unisex appearance, do you still covet Brother Gu?”

Lin Ruonan’s dialing hand paused, noticing Xu Jiajia’s disdainful expression. Instead, she hung up the phone, calmly placing it in her bag, and smoothed her short hair by her ear, ”The mirror is not your concern, Miss, but I suggest you have a good look to avoid scaring Brother Gu like a ghost.”

”You... you’re shameless! How dare you call Brother Gu that?” Xu Jiajia angrily pointed at Lin Ruonan, scolding. After all this fuss, this woman was actually waiting to meet Brother Gu; no wonder she splashed water on her—it was to stop her from meeting Brother Gu?

Xu Jiajia suddenly thought of something, pulled out a mirror from her bag for a look, and then came a hysterical scream, ”Ah—, you wretched woman, I’ll fight you.”

Lin Ruonan’s mouthful of water had splashed onto Xu Jiajia’s face, ruining the once exquisite makeup beyond recognition.

And it really was beyond recognition, Lin Ruonan couldn’t imagine that behind the sweet and charming Xu Jiajia was such a... ghostly appearance after her makeup washed off.
