After the Breakup, He Obtained the Krypton Gold Return Shenhao System

27: Chapter 27 Chu Ziqing’s aesthetic sense is not bad.It was clear that this restaurant was genuinely popular, and since it was nearing mealtime, there were no seats left in the main hall.

Meng Yawen had no choice but to grit her teeth and pay extra to book a private room.

”Xiao Shuai, please accept the money I transferred to you.”

The other party transferred 72,300 yuan to you:

Zhao Xiaoshuai looked at her in confusion, and only then did she solemnly explain the whole situation regarding her mother from beginning to end.

”I really, really, really thank you so much. The doctor said it was fortunate that I got my mom to the hospital early, otherwise...”

Thinking of the terrifying consequences, Meng Yawen couldn’t help but redden her eyes.

Only then did Zhao Xiaoshuai understand why Meng Yawen’s favorability had suddenly jumped so much that day; it turned out the person he had happened to save was her mother.

”That really is a coincidence, but don’t take it to heart. We’re such good friends; isn’t your mom my mom too? It was all just what I should have done.”

”That won’t do. This matter is too important to me; I must repay you properly! Do you have any wishes? I—I will find a way to help you fulfill them!”

By the end, Meng Yawen herself blushed with embarrassment. What could a low-key wealthy big brother like him possibly need help with from a young girl like her?

”Oh? If I make a request, will you agree to it?”

Zhao Xiaoshuai stared at her with great interest.

Upon hearing this slightly ambiguous remark, Meng Yawen instantly thought of something, her earlobes turning red.

Although she was fidgeting, she didn’t set any restrictions, seeming truly willing to satisfy whatever request Zhao Xiaoshuai might make.

In fact, she also wanted to take this opportunity to see from another angle what Zhao Xiaoshuai’s character was really like.

”Well then, I hope that a young girl named Meng Yawen will never refuse any gifts I give her in the future.”

”How about it? Can you help me fulfill this wish?”

Meng Yawen was stunned. In that split second, she had imagined countless possibilities, even including some embarrassing requests.

But the request Zhao Xiaoshuai made was completely unexpected.

”Oh my, why are you cheating!”

”What? You were the one who said you’d agree to anything just a moment ago. Are you backing out now?”

After a long while, Meng Yawen replied in a voice as soft as a mosquito: ”... I’m not backing out. I promise.”

[ Meng Yawen favorability + 50 ]

Zhao Xiaoshuai smiled. Young women really do have their own unique charm, which made him think of Chu Ziqing from his student days.

She was just as cute and innocent back then.

His smile faded slightly as he dispelled those unpleasant memories. He unlocked his phone to accept the transfer, then casually sent her 80,000 yuan.

[ cash-back card - 1, multiplier copper card - 1 ]

[ Current cash-back rate: 166%, final cash-back amount: 101,000 yuan ]

”Hey, why did you transfer money to me again?”

”I already said it was to help pay for our mom’s medical expenses. If you insist on giving it to me, aren’t you treating me like an outsider?”

Hearing the term ”our mom,” Meng Yawen felt a mix of sweetness and shyness. ”But my dad said we must pay you back, and why is there an extra few thousand?”

”Didn’t I already accept the money? This is your pocket money; just spend it secretly.”

This was the largest amount of ”pocket money” Meng Yawen had ever received. Instinctively, she wanted to refuse, but thinking of the request she had just agreed to, she couldn’t bring herself to say it.

Fortunately, the dishes they ordered arrived just then, breaking her little dilemma, and the two began to eat and chat happily.

After the meal, their relationship had become completely harmonious.

”There’s a Chanel over there, shall we go take a look?” Zhao Xiaoshuai mentally reviewed the trashy knowledge he had learned this morning a few times, pointed to the shop in the distance, and pretended to casually take Meng Yawen’s hand.

She did not refuse.

This Chanel was quite large and had a high-end jewelry section.

”How about this one? Do you think it looks pretty on me?”

Shen Lang watched Chu Ziqing admiring herself in the mirror and secretly frowned.

After their unhappy parting yesterday and the failed attempt to get a hotel room, he was dying to have this woman.

So, he planned to go all out today, taking her out again to a different store, and promised her double the budget this time, which was 75,000 yuan.

But this woman didn’t seem to know what discretion was and was pushing her luck; she was currently holding a FILDECAMÉLIA platinum diamond necklace.

Price: 83,300.

His disgust for her deepened a little more.

”Qingqing, I already agreed to give you double the budget this time. Didn’t we agree on this? This one is over the limit.”

”But I really like this one. Look, it suits me so well.”

”No, we agreed on the budget. Why do you always go back on your word?”

”What do you mean I always go back on my word? Last time wasn’t that because of you! I...”

Halfway through, Chu Ziqing suddenly stopped. She saw her ex-boyfriend, Zhao Xiaoshuai, walking in through the entrance, holding hands with that beautiful woman from last time.

’Why is he such a ghost that won’t go away! I already changed to a different commercial street; is he stalking me?’

”What’s wrong, Qingqing?” Shen Lang looked in the direction of her gaze and his eyes lit up.

’What a top-tier girl, she’s no worse than Chu Ziqing! No, I should say she’s even better! If that figure isn’t artificial, it’s really something.’

”What are you looking at? Is she very pretty?”

A cold question brought Shen Lang, who was lost in his fantasies, back to reality. He coughed awkwardly.

”I wasn’t looking at anything. I just saw you freeze for a moment, so I took a look in that direction.”

Zhao Xiaoshuai’s enhanced vision was quite good. As soon as he entered, he swept his gaze and saw Chu Ziqing and her companion in the crowd.

He smiled slightly, not avoiding them at all, and walked right up to Chu Ziqing and the other man while holding Meng Yawen’s hand.

He glanced out of the corner of his eye at the necklace Chu Ziqing was clutching tightly in her hand.

He ”casually” picked out the same one.

”Yawen, come try this on. I think it will suit you very well.”

Chu Ziqing’s eyes widened immediately, and an inexplicable rage made her head spin.

’He is absolutely doing this on purpose!! Absolutely! No, wait, where on earth did he get the money! Even if it’s a loan, it wouldn’t be enough!’

Meng Yawen happily tried on the necklace. She didn’t refuse this time; she was gradually getting used to accepting gifts from Zhao Xiaoshuai.

”It’s so beautiful, you’re still so good at picking things!”

’It seems Chu Ziqing has decent taste,’ he thought to himself with a silent jab. He turned to the clerk and said calmly, ”Please write up the receipt for this necklace. Can I keep it on?”

Although theoretically it was slightly against the rules, a boss who spent money so decisively and readily deserved certain privileges.

From entering the door to paying, had it even been a minute?

Unlike that certain couple, who were bickering for ages.

”No problem, sir. Please come this way.”

Buying luxury goods worth tens of thousands for her at the drop of a hat was starting to scare Meng Yawen. She declined the suggestion to continue shopping and, after payment was complete, hurriedly pulled Zhao Xiaoshuai away.

It was somewhat quiet between Chu Ziqing and Shen Lang.

What a situation; comparisons are truly the worst. Shen Lang’s expression darkened, and he gritted his teeth.

”Qingqing, let’s just get this one. It’s over budget, so be it, but no more changing after this.”

Chu Ziqing, however, felt no joy at all. She put the necklace back without any attachment and said coldly:

”I don’t like it anymore.”

After saying that, she turned and pushed the door open to leave without looking back.

Shen Lang felt like ten thousand fires were burning in his heart; he wished he could kick this woman to the curb right this instant.

But he still couldn’t bear to lose the sunk costs he had already invested. He took a deep breath and chased after her again.
