Chapter 568 You Can’t Spend Money Like This!
There were endless discussions online: (The Yao family is heartless. They chased Yao Junjie out of the country. But every time they encountered trouble, it was Young Master Yao who came to clean up the mess. He’s too kind.)
[If I were Young Master Yao, I definitely wouldn’t have cared about them and let them fend for themselves!]
Qiao Xi read the comments for a while and sighed. “Is that so? No wonder the Yao family is in pieces and Yao Junjie hasn’t appeared yet. It turns out that he isn’t Yao Mengqing’s biological brother.”
Gu Zheng’s thin lips moved slightly. “Yao Junjie gave you 20% of the Yao family’s shares as compensation.”
Qiao Xi’s face was covered in confusion.
Gu Zheng continued to explain, “Actually, the Yao family’s company originally belonged to Yao Junjie. It was snatched by Yao Mengqing’s family. Yao Junjie has been tolerating it for so many years. Now that you’ve helped him solve his problem and get revenge for him, he wants to give you shares as a gift.”
Qiao Xi nodded. Giving away shares was nothing, but this was the first time she saw someone give 20% of their shares to someone. This was too generous!
At this moment, the car had already stopped in front of International Commercial Building
Gu Zheng held her hand and walked into the shop. The staff could tell from their clothes and bearing that they were of extraordinary status. They must be either rich or noble.
The staff member went forward respectfully. “Sir, Madam, what do you need? I can help introduce you to the items here. Miss, you’re young, so it’s more suitable for you to wear a light-colored jade bracelet. How about this? It’s a high-grade ice-type jade without any impurities. Such a clean jade is rare. There’s only one in our entire shop.”
Qiao Xi glanced at it. Even though she did not know much about jade, she knew that the quality of this jade was extremely good.
Gu Zheng bent down and asked gently, “Do you like it?”
The color of this jade bracelet was indeed good. Qiao Xi nodded with satisfaction. “Yes.”
Gu Zheng took out a gold card. “Use this
card.”
Qiao Xi: “…”
The staff member widened his eyes in pleasant surprise. This jade bracelet was of considerable value. He did not expect that this person would ask for it without asking for the price. Everyone in the shop understood that the two people in front of them were filthy rich. They sent Gu Zheng and Qiao Xi off respectfully.
The two of them walked around a few more shops. No matter what the sales attendant recommended, as long as it was something suitable for Qiao Xi, Gu Zheng did not refuse. He swiped his card and took them all, instantly alerting the heads of several shops.
Qiao Xi raised her eyes. “Gu Zheng, you can’t spend so much money like this!”
Gu Zheng smirked. “I’ll buy it as long as you like it.”
He was in a very good mood today and felt like he had just survived a calamity. This was because Mrs. Gu was not afraid of him, nor did she leave him like Madam Yao had said.
At this moment, even if Qiao Xi wanted the stars in the sky, he would pluck them down to cheer her up.
After leaving International Commercial Building, the two of them went to visit luxury shops.
However, they had not gone far when Song Shijing rushed up to them. “President.”
Gu Zheng understood and stroked Qiao Xi’s cheek gently. “I have something to attend to. I’ll get Song Shijing to accompany you. Buy whatever you like. I’ll come look for you later.”
Qiao Xi nodded. She felt more at ease shopping alone. Song Shijing was also very sensible and followed her from an appropriate distance.
She strolled around in boredom and accidentally walked to a luxury men’s clothing shop.
Song Shijing was about to remind her that this was a men’s clothing shop when Qiao Xi walked in.
She glanced around, and her gaze finally landed on a grayish-blue windbreaker. The design was simple and the length was just right. She could already imagine Gu Zheng wearing this.
Gu Zheng’s clothes were mostly suits. They were black and white, and his tie was also a dark color. It made him look very mature.
Actually, Madam Yao was right. Gu Zheng had been pretending to be steady, gentle, elegant, and calm in front of her. He made himself appear just like the noble son of an aristocratic family.
However, Qiao Xi knew that his heart was dark, and he had a stubborn and overbearing character. He seemed to be steady, but he was actually doing his best to suppress the emotions in his heart. She felt that a grayish-blue color was more suitable for him.
Actually, there was no need for him to pretend. Even if she knew his true nature, she would still like him.
Qiao Xi pointed at the grayish-blue windbreaker. “Wrap it up for me and swipe my card.”
On the other hand, Gu Zheng had just finished dealing with his matters and was about to enter when he heard Qiao Xi’s conversation with the sales attendant.
