After Being Reborn and Bound to a System, I Became a Rich, Beautiful, and Successful Woman

25: LM Center Shopping MallBefore she could finish her thoughts, the office phone rang.

”What is it?” Fu Youchi pressed the speakerphone button.

The voice of the front desk receptionist on the first floor came through, ”Chairman, there’s a child here who claims to be Fu Xiangqi and says he’s your son. I wasn’t sure, so I took the liberty of calling you.”

Upon hearing that Qi Qi had arrived, Fu Youchi quickly said, ”Send him up immediately.”

”Yes, Chairman.” Hearing the Chairman’s excited tone, the receptionist knew for sure that the young man before her was indeed the Chairman’s son!

After hanging up, the receptionist very respectfully let Fu Xiangqi go upstairs.

In the office, Fu Youchi also had Zhou Ran go to meet Qi Qi.

After Fu Xiangqi went upstairs, the front desk staff immediately began gossiping, saying the Chairman actually had a seventeen or eighteen-year-old son.

Some people remembered and said: Doesn’t the Chairman have no children? Could this child be an illegitimate son?

Those who heard this gasped inwardly, as if they had just stumbled upon some juicy gossip.

The wife versus the mistress and the mistress’s son—what a dramatic scene that would be!

However, their wild speculations were quickly cut short by Zhou Ran.

Sigh, they thought there’d be a good show! But in the end, it was just... this...

At the LM Center Building, Jiang Li and her parents, Father Jiang and Mother Jiang, were shopping.

Mother Jiang, Su Wan, looked at the price tags on the clothes: a simple top cost over a thousand yuan, and just moments ago she saw a dress priced directly at thirteen thousand.

Although they usually wore clothes costing one or two hundred yuan, these prices were still very expensive for them.

”Lili, are all the clothes here this expensive?”

Hearing Mother Jiang’s question, Jiang Li recalled her previous life, when she had once worked here.

This place was basically frequented only by the wealthy and privileged.

Besides the LM Center Building, there was also the Center Building.

These two could be considered the two largest shopping malls in the Shanghai.

Although she didn’t know how the System gave her this reward, now it belonged to her.

Since Jiang He and Jiang Yan had gone with Jiang Li to buy clothes at the Center Building before, they found these prices somewhat acceptable.

After all, the clothes they bought that day weren’t cheap either.

”Mom, the LM Center Building is the luxury hub of Shanghai, so the high prices here make sense.”

Su Wan remembered that Shanghai and the capital were equally famous. ”That’s true.”

The conversation between mother and daughter was overheard by two women shopping nearby.

”Nowadays, really anyone can come to the LM Center to shop.”

”Exactly. They probably just look around and buy nothing.”

After venting their verbal disdain, the two women continued shopping. They saw a dress they wanted to buy.

But it was snatched up first by Jiang He and Jiang Yan.

The two sisters had clearly heard everything those women just said.

”Sorry, but I got this first,” Jiang He said, holding the dress without a hint of apology in her tone.

Jiang Yan added, ”Sister, this dress looks too old-fashioned and isn’t very pretty. How about we buy it and give it to Grandma?”

Hearing this, Jiang He thought about how Grandma always favored boys over girls, especially when she saw the two of them. Now, hearing her sister’s words, she knew it was meant to annoy these two women.

”Good idea. But this dress costs twenty thousand. Grandma probably wouldn’t accept it.”

”It’s fine. We’ll buy it. If she doesn’t want it, we’ll just throw it away. How about that!” Jiang Yan echoed her Second Sister.

”Great idea.”

After saying this, Jiang He prepared to go checkout.

Their sister had given them a bank card yesterday, and it was loaded with money.

One billion each. Although they didn’t know how to spend it all, dealing with these loose-lipped people was truly satisfying.

The two women, hearing Jiang He and Jiang Yan’s back-and-forth, especially the one who wanted the dress, flushed red with anger.

What did that mean? Wasn’t it just calling her old!

She was only 27, how was that old?

”Stop right there, you two little girls.” The woman who wanted the dress, Yang Shuang, directly called out to Jiang He.

”Don’t you understand first come, first served? I saw this dress first.”

She walked up to the two of them, looking them over.

Jiang He and Jiang Yan looked at Yang Shuang. ”Miss, you may have seen it first, but I picked it up first, and I’m already about to pay for it.”

”Little girl, this dress costs twenty thousand. You’re still students, right? Don’t waste your parents’ money recklessly.”

Yang Shuang self-righteously began lecturing them, forgetting that she too was spending her family’s money!

The other woman with Yang Shuang, Meng Xi, noticed that the clothes Jiang He and Jiang Yan were wearing were Chanel and Givenchy sets.

Those outfits also cost tens of thousands, so their families were probably wealthy too.

Meng Xi stepped forward. ”Alright, Shuang Shuang, let’s go. There’s no need to fight with two little girls.”

Hearing Meng Xi’s words, Yang Shuang immediately grew somewhat angry and scolded her, ”What’s wrong with you today? Can’t you see these two little girls look down on us?”

Seeing she couldn’t restrain Yang Shuang, Meng Xi gave up. She didn’t recognize these two girls, so they probably weren’t from any prominent wealthy families.

After finishing her conversation with Mother Jiang and looking at the shoes over there, Jiang Li was about to checkout when she noticed two people standing in front of her sisters, scolding them.

”Mom, Dad, wait here a moment. I’ll handle this.”

Father Jiang and Mother Jiang replied, ”Alright, be careful. If you really can’t win, just call for help.”

”I know, Mom. Dad, please take Mom to rest for a bit.”

Father Jiang said, ”Okay,” then helped Mother Jiang sit down to enjoy the show.

Jiang Li walked up behind her sisters and asked, ”What’s going on?”

”Sister, they said you...”

Jiang He recounted what she had just heard.

Jiang Yan added some details and explained what had just happened.

Seeing Jiang Li, Yang Shuang was struck by how stunning she was. Her face had minimal makeup, yet she looked exquisitely beautiful.

Especially in that tailored suit dress set, with her slightly wavy hair, she appeared incredibly capable.

But immediately after, jealousy flashed in Yang Shuang’s eyes. ”So you’re their sister. Let me give you some advice: if you can’t afford it, don’t linger here, lest you become a laughingstock.”

At this point, the store’s salesperson and manager noticed the situation was getting out of control and quickly stepped forward.

”Miss Yang, what brings you here today? My apologies, I just got back.”

The manager was quite slick.

After speaking, the manager then turned to look at Jiang Li and the others.

She could naturally tell that the clothes the three sisters wore were all high-end brands.

But nowadays, there are plenty of people who wear counterfeit goods.

She probably assumed they were the same.

”Miss, are you sure you want this dress? It’s... quite expensive. And you need a membership card to purchase it.”

The manager looked at Jiang He as she spoke.

Her expression was very impatient, as if she felt the three sisters were deliberately causing trouble.

Jiang He naturally noticed the disdain in the manager’s eyes. ”Is there a problem?” She casually took out her bank card.
