When Gu Man heard his praise, she was in a good mood. Speaking of which, although she did not ask for the size, it seemed to be tailor-made for her. It fit her exceptionally well and was comfortable.
On the other side, Xiang Yin had already handed over his black card and started to look around the shop.
The workmanship of this shop was not bad. They could buy a few more pieces.
The lady boss took the black card from the lady boss and saw the meaning in Xiang Yin’s eyes. She smiled.
“We only sell one piece of clothing a day. Miss, if you like, you can come back tomorrow.”
Xiang Yin was a little dissatisfied. Just as he was about to speak, Gu Man grabbed his wrist and he immediately stopped talking.
“I’ll definitely come if I have the chance.”
The lady boss smiled and took the black card to the counter. After swiping the card, she respectfully handed it to Xiang Yin.
Although the clothes looked good, Gu Man still returned to the fitting room to change into her own clothes.
After the cheongsam was packed, it was placed in an exquisite box. There was a gift bag on the outside. Xiang Yin naturally took the bag from the lady boss.
The two of them left the shop side by side. The lady boss looked at their backs and smiled.
The dim yellow light was turned off, and the shop fell into darkness.
After Gu Man took two to three steps, she seemed to have sensed something and looked behind her. Only then did she realize that the shop, which had been slightly lit just now, had completely darkened.
In this bustling mall, such a shop was especially out of place. She had been to this mall before, but why didn’t she see this shop?
However, the doubts in her heart did not last long. Soon, Xiang Yin brought her to the jewelry shop to choose a necklace and carrings suitable for the qipao.
Gu Man did not stay out for too long today. When she returned home, it was just in time for her family to eat.
She looked at her grandmother’s body and realized that her face was rosy. Clearly, she had not forgotten her instructions. If she drank the prescription on time every day and applied acupuncture a few more times, she would be cured.
This could be considered a huge matter resolved.
“Grandma, I’ll give you another acupuncture tonight. You’ll be fine after a few more times.”
Although her grandmother knew her body’s condition very well, she also knew that her body was getting better and better. However, when she suddenly heard this, her eyes were still filled with tears.
“Good, good. I’m really lucky to have met you, Manman.”
“No, I’m lucky to have met you.”
Gu Man had a gentle smile on her face. This was an expression she had never had when she was outside. This was because the feeling of home touched her heartstrings. No matter how cold the ice was, it would melt in such an environment.
Huang Jun was obviously very excited. When he first found out about this illness, he had been devastated. But now, everyone could see the changes in his aunt. She was really getting better day by day. He was exceptionally happy.
Huang Jun, who was eating dinner, suddenly thought of something and carefully handed a bank card to Gu Man.
“Manman, this is the money Uncle has earned recently. Take it. There are many things to spend money on in school. Moreover, I made you spend so much money to buy so many things some time ago.”
Huang Jun had a cautious expression on his face. His hands were covered in calluses. It was obvious that he had been working hard for the past few days.
Although he was smiling, the fatigue in his eyes could not be concealed.
Gu Man was about to refuse, but when she met Huang Jun’s gaze, she couldn’t bring herself to reject him.
She pushed the card back and spoke before Huang Jun could show a sad expression.
“Uncle, I’m still underage. Gu Yuan has the responsibility to raise me.”
At the mention of Gu Yuan, Huang Jun’s attention was immediately diverted. His face was filled with anger.
“He definitely has to support you, but you have to accept Manman’s money. I know that little girls spend a lot of money, but this isn’t much. Just take it.”
Gu Man did not expect the topic to involve Gu Yuan, but she still could not make Huang Jun take back his idea. She shook her head helplessly.
“Uncle, I have money in my hands. If you really feel bad, save the money first. When I need it, I won’t be polite..”
