The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

74: A Surprise from Him to Her

Chi Rui’er’s lips were shaking, and her face was pale as a sheet. His words were ringing by her ears like a sudden attack from a savage beast. She was not mentally prepared to hear him say those words at all.

She stood there, suddenly feeling absolutely pathetic.

Turning around, she headed straight for the door.

“Rui’er, I’ll get someone to send you back.”

“No need.” She pulled the door open and just left.

Jin Qingyan looked like he was in a trance. He felt that since he was an adult, he should be responsible for his own actions. If he married An Xiaoning, she was his wife, so regardless of anything, he should not give other women any glimmer of hope.

Mei Yangyang had hired another sales assistant. Her name was Zhang Li, she was 21 years old and had two years of experience as a sales assistant. Now, in the store, there were three employees, including her. An Xiaoning only went to personally check on the stock herself, the other matters of the store were left to the three of them to handle. Mei Yangyang went home every day, while Xu Jingwen and Zhang Li stayed behind to look after the store.

At 5:30 pm, Jin Qingyan’s car stopped at the entrance of the store. He wanted to give her a surprise, the very first since their marriage.

As he arrived at the doorstep of the store, Mei Yangyang saw him and greeted cheerily, “Brother-in-law, you’re looking for my sister right?”

“Mmm… where is she?”

“She’s gone to buy food for us, she’ll be back very soon.” She pointed to the interior of the store and continued, “You can sit there and wait for her.”

“Okay.” Jin Qingyan took the opportunity to survey the store — it was uniquely renovated, one look and he knew it was his wife’s piece of work.

The clothing looked like they cost a few hundreds, but the designs were fashionable. He reached out to feel the material of their clothing, and it was indeed of fine quality.

“Take it, Brother-in-law.” Mei Yangyang passed him a cup of tea.

“Thank you.” He took it and asked gently, “How’s the daily earnings of this store?”

“Under my sister’s leadership, it’s improving by leaps and bounds every day. Look, we’ve also hired two sales assistants.”

Seeing Jin Qingyan for the first time, Xu Jingwen and Zhang Li were both in awe. Xu Jingwen greeted him, “Hello, Mr. Jin, I’m Xu Jingwen.”

He nodded and smiled politely at her.

This smile instantly turned Xu Jingwen head over heels for him. Her face flushed immediately and felt like it was on fire.

She had applied for a job at this store precisely because she heard that it was opened by Jin Qingyan’s wife, in hopes of meeting the man of her dreams. To her, Jin Qingyan was a handsome, rich, powerful, and gentle man who was the perfect prince charming in her heart. Sure enough, meeting him then allowed her to see for herself the gentle temperament he possessed like what netizens had claimed online.

As compared to the fanciful efforts from a girl like her, Zhang Li appeared calm and did not take the initiative to introduce herself either.

Not long after, An Xiaoning returned carrying a few bags of dumplings. There were also side dishes and some piping hot soup. At the sight of Jin Qingyan’s car, she’d known he was here.

Mei Yangyang immediately took the bags from her and called Zhang Li and Xu Jingwen to head inside to eat.

“It’s the first time you’re here at this shabby store of mine, right?”
