TGLC Chapter 53.5

Xie Qingyu was overjoyed that her little girl always stood up for her in crucial moments.

She smiled and patted her little head.

Her companion, a man with dyed blond hair, walked over at this moment. Seeing that Ling Shurui looked a little pale, he came over and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Ling Shurui shook her head: “Nothing, let’s go.”

The man’s gaze swept over Xie Qingyu’s beautiful face before he left with her.

Duan Zihui noticed the strange man’s gaze lingering on Xie Qingyu and couldn’t help but frown slightly.

Then they went to their lodgings to rest.

Duan Zihui had mentioned beforehand that they would be staying there that night, so everyone had brought their luggage. Because they were attending a birthday party, their plans to enjoy themselves here were put on hold.

In the afternoon, the three women gathered together to chat.

Xie Qingyu looked at the clothes she had brought, frowned slightly, and said with some dissatisfaction, “I didn’t even expect to attend a party, so I didn’t bring any nice clothes. Sigh.”

She rested her chin on her hand, her hand on the table, and sighed.

Yan Zhen didn’t think anything of it. She rarely attended banquets and didn’t really have a concept of what a party was like. The clothes she wore on this trip were already among the best available, and Xu Yi said that this was fine for her.

Chen Yurou was always low-key, and her clothes were sufficient.

So only Xie Qingyu was worried.

There were many villas on the island, and the three families each stayed in one. Duan Zihui stayed in another, and being bored by himself, he wandered over to Xie Qingyu’s place.

Zhuzhu opened the door for him, and as she said this, the father and daughter came in.

Hearing her mother’s words, Zhuzhu knew that she could go shopping again, and immediately said, “Mom, if you don’t have any clothes, you can go buy some. Weren’t there many shops on our way here?”

The island had plenty of supplies. To meet the needs of tourists, a wide street had been built, filled with a dazzling array of goods, and there were also big shopping malls.

There was definitely enough time to go shopping now.

Xie Qingyu agreed: “Okay.”

However, it was a bit far from there.

She could only look at Duan Zihui and smile slyly: “Zhuzhu’s dad, could you please drive us there?”

Duan Zihui had no objection: “Let’s go.”

Not long after, they drove off.

However, when Xie Qingyu got to the street, she regretted coming.

This place truly lived up to its reputation as a place that preyed on the wealthy; everything was ridiculously expensive.

Xie Qingyu saw some clothes she liked, but the prices were too high, so she didn’t want to buy them. Seeing Duan Zihui standing next to her, she couldn’t help but complain, “Why are the things in these shops so expensive? Is that Mr. Jiang just ripping off his guests?”

The prices here were indeed several times higher than outside.

Duan Zihui raised an eyebrow and smiled, explaining, “His men only care about collecting rent; they don’t care how the items in the shop are sold. Just tell me which item you like, and I’ll pay for it.”

Xie Qingyu immediately said, “Zhuzhu’s dad is really rich and powerful!”

Duan Zihui’s ears twitched, and he laughed, “What did you say?”

Xie Qingyu noticed his unusual smile and suspected that he was thinking about something else. She couldn’t help but glare at him and, without hesitation, picked up the dress she had her eye on.
