The Person She Didn't Want to See

Jiang Chuanyao rubbed his eyebrows in frustration and said coldly, "You're bothering me with such a small matter. If Xia Ke wants to go out to play, send two bodyguards to follow her. Also, take her to the Vita clothing store in the mall and let her choose a few clothes." Xia Ke didn't like any of the clothes in the wardrobe, and he didn't know her preferences. That was why he wanted Xia Qing to help him choose a few garments. Since Xia Ke was going out now, he would let her choose the clothes herself.

After Jiang Chuanyao finished his call, he was about to walk into his office when he suddenly asked his assistant, "What day is it today? Is there something important going on today?"

The assistant was dumbfounded as he flipped through the schedule.

Jiang Chuanyao thought for a few seconds and felt that it was someone's birthday today, but he couldn't remember who it was.

The assistant flipped through the schedule and said, "President Jiang, other than work today, there's nothing special."

"Got it." Jiang Chuanyao nodded and walked out of the office with a dark expression.

…

Xia Ke walked along the street while followed by the burly bodyguards of the Jiang family. Just now, when she found out that Jiang Chuanyao was with Xia Qing, she returned to her room to pack her things and was about to leave. However, she was stopped by Uncle Qin and the bodyguards. They said that they would bring her out to buy clothes. No matter what, she was finally out, although Uncle Qin and the bodyguards were following behind her.

Xia Ke really didn't know what was going on. She was a fool, not a treasure. Did they have to watch her so closely? What made Xia Ke find it even stranger was that yesterday, Uncle Qin was still wary of her. Today, he suddenly changed. Not only did he look at her excitedly, but he also muttered to himself that the Jiang family would have an heir. Hehe, she wouldn't give birth to Jiang Chuanyao's child!

Xia Ke stopped at the entrance of a women's clothing store. This was the brand of the dress that her mother had gotten her. Her mother had been dead for ten years. Xia Ke's gaze passed through the glass window. She seemed to see her mother in the shop when she was alive, dragging her sickly body to order a birthday dress for her.

Xia Ke's eyes turned red. She pushed open the door and entered. As soon as she entered, she heard familiar laughter.

Xia Ke frowned. Why did she meet people she didn't want to see everywhere she went?!

Xia Qing was also in the clothing store, trying on clothes with her best friends. She was trying on a backless dress. When she saw Xia Ke walking in through the mirror, she immediately turned around. "Xia Ke?"

Xia Qing frowned and looked angry. It wasn't easy for Jiang Chuanyao to take a fancy to her and even buy clothes for her. She immediately called her best friend to shop with her to deliberately show off, but she didn't expect Xia Ke to be here. A fool wanted to snatch President Jiang from her?

"Xia Qing, is this your younger sister from the countryside?" her friend asked.

Xia Qing snorted. "What sister? She's a fool!"

Upon hearing that she was a fool, the few friends immediately looked at Xia Ke strangely. Even the shop assistant who was about to step forward revealed a look of disdain.

Xia Qing quickly walked up to Xia Ke and lowered her voice. "Did you call Jiang Chuanyao again? Did you chase after me after knowing that he asked me to come here to buy clothes?"

Jiang Chuanyao again? Xia Ke felt uncomfortable. He forcefully brought her home and said that he wanted to marry her. In the end, he turned around and went to look for Xia Qing. He was even buying clothes for her now. Indeed, as her mother had said, the more handsome a man was, the more fickle he was.

Xia Ke turned to leave.

"Stop right there." Xia Qing grabbed her and snorted. "Since you're here, why are you leaving so soon? Come and wait on us as we shop!" She wanted Xia Ke to see clearly how President Jiang doted on her. She had to make this fool completely give up on President Jiang!

After saying that, Xia Qing gave her best friends a look. One of them, Zhao Qiqi, carried everyone's clothes over for Xia Ke to take.

Zhao Qiqi struggled to hold a large pile of clothes and stuffed them into Xia Ke's arms. "Take these. These are all expensive gowns. If you dirty them, you won't be able to pay for them even if you sell yourself!"

Xia Ke looked at the clothes. Xia Qing probably called all her best friends over to buy clothes because Jiang Chuanyao was paying the bill. She ignored Zhao Qiqi and walked to the clothes rack at the side.

Seeing that Xia Ke dared to be disobedient, Xia Qing gritted her teeth in anger. If it weren't for her father holding a business banquet in a few days and inviting President Jiang over, she would've slapped Xia Ke! She couldn't do that now as she had to maintain her image as a lady.

One of her best friends walked forward and held Xia Qing's arm. "Xia Qing, are you really letting us choose whatever we want?"

"Of course!" Xia Qing glanced at Xia Ke and deliberately said loudly, "President Jiang is paying the bill. What are you afraid of? It doesn't matter even if you empty the shop."

Her best friends looked at each other. Although they were also socialites, they were all from second- or third-rate families. They could not buy such expensive clothes so casually.
