**Chapter 49: Cousin's Divine Assist**

Yang Qianqian saw that Hu Xiao had finally settled down and took a few steps over to An Xin, smiling as she said, "You've grown so fast, I almost didn't recognize you."

Although An Xin usually appeared calm and composed in front of others, she couldn't help but smile a little when she heard Yang Qianqian's words.

Feeling a bit shy, she didn't respond immediately. After all, it had been a long time since they'd last met, and her cousin showing up with such a big surprise was quite unexpected.

Moreover, Hu Xiao had just forked out two hundred thousand yuan to save face, doubling the price. This meant her small treasury now had more zeros than she could count, practically fulfilling her dream of counting money until her hands cramped.

Seeing An Xin looking bashful, Yang Qianqian patted her on the shoulder and said, "You've always been shy since you were little. Here's my business card. If you ever need anything, just come to me. If anyone dares to mess with you, I'll get you a whole platoon of lawyers."

The wealthy ladies and young girls around them, who had been eyeing An Xin with ulterior motives, reined in their thoughts quite a bit after hearing Yang Qianqian's words.

Even the bunny girl who had been hovering around An Xin wasn't staring at him as intently anymore. While the handsome boss was certainly eye candy, having such a formidable sister made most people think twice.

After making a phone-like gesture to the onlookers, Yang Qianqian left. An Xin quickly caught up to her, handing her a gift as a token of appreciation.

Seeing the envious looks on everyone's faces, An Xin promptly announced, "All new sisters today get a gift too."

The bunny girl, holding her rabbit, frowned and said, "What about me? What about me?"

An Xin smiled at the girl and said, "I'll help you pick out the perfect outfit. I know you like that set, but it might not suit you."

Hearing this, the bunny girl finally relaxed and said, "Alright then, I'll trust your judgment."

But as soon as An Xin finished picking out clothes for the girl, she noticed everyone crowding around her again.

The sales associates couldn't believe their eyes. The boss came in for just one day, and so many women were already following and spending money. This wasn't just a boss; it was a cash magnet! A golden goose raking in fortune daily.

After finally attending to everyone, An Xin and Chu Xinxin were both exhausted. They looked at Hu Xiao, who was standing nearby rolling her eyes, and Chu Xinxin walked over, pulling her along.

"Thanks to you today. How about we go out for dinner?" Chu Xinxin suggested.

Hu Xiao, looking into Chu Xinxin's gleaming eyes, initially wanted to refuse. But under that gaze, she softened and said, "Fine, let's go. I spent so much today, I better eat something good."

Seeing more people intending to come in, An Xin called over the store manager and said, "Here's a million for your team outing. We're closing the store now to go eat."

Everyone was stunned by such an action. The new store had such booming business, but they were just going to shut down like that? It seemed too capricious.

Chu Xinxin couldn't help but ask, "An Xin, is this really okay? Won't we lose customers?"

"Of course not. Trust my financial instincts," An Xin replied, jingling her car keys before heading out of the store. The women outside, despite frowning at the decision, couldn't do anything about it. No matter how bad-tempered one might be, beautiful clothes had a way of melting away all grievances.

Not long after, An Xin escorted the two women to a restaurant, making sure not to forget his sweetheart, Gao Qilan. He dialed her number, and a sleepy voice answered.

"Hello? Why are you suddenly calling me?" Gao Qilan's voice sounded drowsy.

An Xin sent a kiss through the phone and said, "How about joining us at Qin Feng Hotel tonight? My store made a great profit today."

Gao Qilan hesitated. "Should I really go?"

"You're my darling. What's wrong with having dinner at a hotel with me?" An Xin's deep voice instantly melted her resolve.

Blushing, Gao Qilan replied, "You're still outside! People will hear you."

"It's settled then. I'll pick you up in a bit," An Xin said.

"Alright, let me freshen up. I'll be quick," Gao Qilan agreed before hanging up.

Chu Xinxin and Hu Xiao arrived at the restaurant first, while An Xin went to fetch Gao Qilan. Upon arrival, he saw her dressed beautifully. He playfully pinched her nose.

"You look stunning. I'm afraid to take you out; someone might snatch you away."

Seeing the beauty in front of him, An Xin felt his heart race. Without the help of the system, he would probably still be a poor nobody, never even getting close to such a beautiful woman.

Gao Qilan laughed, "You're exaggerating."

"In my eyes, it's no exaggeration. Look what I brought you," An Xin said, hugging her as they got into the car and presenting a bag.

Inside was a gorgeous evening gown, as blue as the sea. Anyone wearing it would shine like the brightest star.

"Did you gather the stars and sea into a dress?" Gao Qilan's eyes were glued to the gown.

"Don't worry, that's just the beginning. I'll give you more and more. Whatever I can do, I will," An Xin said, resisting the urge to kiss her when he saw her shy expression.

"Are you thinking something naughty?" Gao Qilan teased, lightly pinching An Xin.

Though she didn't use much force, An Xin pretended it hurt, letting out a small gasp.

Gao Qilan's heart softened, wanting to comfort him, but then she saw his mischievous grin and realized he wasn't hurt at all.

"Ignore you," Gao Qilan pouted but didn't pull her hand away.

Soon, they arrived at Qin Feng Hotel, where they heard a commotion upstairs. An Xin saw broken dishes everywhere in a private room and several burly men glaring at two women—Hu Xiao and Chu Xinxin—with red-rimmed eyes. Despite being from wealthy families, they were clearly scared in this situation.
