Chapter 1165: Using a Daughter as a Pawn
by xennovelYunzhou.
Xu Shaochen was unaware of the internal cracks within Tianqing that he had caused.
He was out shopping, planning to bring some gifts back for the women at home.
Having too many women is also a hassle because buying gifts means buying several.
Those superficial people only see him surrounded by beauties during the day. Who knows how uncomfortable he feels at night? Xu Shaochen arrived at a branded women’s clothing store, told Long Yi and the others to wait outside, and walked in alone.
He naturally knew the sizes his women wore.
Buying more than ten identical outfits for them to wear, and imagining the scene at night, always made him excited.
“Good morning, sir! Welcome.”
As soon as he entered, a pretty saleswoman greeted him warmly.
“Sir, are you picking something for your girlfriend? Let me introduce some items…”
Like many saleswomen have a bad habit of overwhelming the entering customers with chatter, regardless if they understand.
Xu Shaochen shook his head interrupting her “No need let me just browse a bit.”
Hearing this the saleswoman’s warm smile gradually faded “Alright sir you look around.”
Saying this, she turned to attend to other customers.
For this kind of customer who browses without buying, she wouldn’t speak harshly but also wouldn’t show a good face. After all, such people take up space and waste her time.
Wandering around without paying, it’s just an eyesore.
Xu Shaochen was somewhat dazed by the saleswoman’s different attitudes.
“Miss, is this your own store?”
Xu Shaochen suddenly asked the saleswoman.
“Yes, why?”
The saleswoman stopped and replied indifferently.
“Nothing, just asking.”
Xu Shaochen thought to himself it was expected. After all, which store’s saleswoman would dare treat an entering customer like this? If the owner doesn’t deduct her salary, that’s already generous.
Only if it’s her own store would she be so headstrong, not caring about customers.
“Nonsense.”
The saleswoman cursed under her breath then smiled again, welcoming a new woman “Welcome to our store…”
She didn’t know Xu Shaochen had taken the Genetic Serum, his six senses enhanced, clearly hearing her curse.
Smiling Xu Shaochen didn’t argue with her picking up a nice dress and asking “Boss how much is this?”
“Isn’t it written on the tag? Look for yourself. Oh, we don’t bargain here.”
The saleswoman replied without turning back, silently cursing, why a man comes to a women’s store and asks so many questions if he doesn’t buy.
Xu Shaochen frowned slightly hanging the dress back before briskly walking out of the store.
The saleswoman’s attitude annoyed him, so he wouldn’t buy from her store or give her money. After all, he’s not that cheap.
After leaving the store, Xu Shaochen went straight into the women’s store across the street.
The saleswoman saw this sneered and scoffed can’t take it can’t you? Dressed all prim and proper, anyone would think you’re rich.
For losing such customers without purchasing power, she felt not the least bit regretful.
Minutes later, she watched as Xu Shaochen left the opposite store with two burly men carrying bags and packages.
The whole person was stunned in place.
Not until Xu Shaochen’s back disappeared did she come to her senses hurriedly running to the opposite store.
Entering, she saw the opposite owner with a beaming smile.
“Sister Liu, did that person just buy clothes from your store?”
The saleswoman asked.
Sister Liu nodded smiling eagerly “Yes, all new styles this year, bought over ten pieces without bargaining. If more generous customers like this come, I’d be rolling in wealth.”
The saleswoman stood still, looking at the delighted Sister Liu, a mix of emotions in her heart.
This money should have been hers!
Xu Shaochen returned to the hotel and soon received a call from Chen Dongqiu, waiting at the hotel entrance.
Then Xu Shaochen changed clothing preparing to visit the Chen Family alone.
After all, visiting as a guest bringing bodyguards was inappropriate.
“Mr. Xu.”
Seeing Xu Shaochen coming out, Chen Dongqiu hurriedly opened the car door.
“Dongqiu, I took a while changing, sorry to keep you waiting.”
Xu Shaochen smiled bending into the car.
“Mr. Xu, it’s nothing. I just got here myself.”
More than twenty minutes later they reached the Chen Family.
“Mr. Xu, please.”
Chen Dongqiu led Xu Shaochen into the living room.
“Mr. Xu has arrived, please come in.”
“Mr. Xu…”
Entering the living room, both Chen Runzhong and Chen Dongqing stood to welcome him, bearing friendly and humble smiles.
“Director Chen, you are too polite. It’s my first visit, and I didn’t bring a gift. Please don’t mind.”
Xu Shaochen smiled at Chen Runzhong.
“Not at all, Mr. Xu coming already graces our humble home. No need for gifts.”
After some commercial flattery, they sat down.
“Dongqing, why hasn’t Dongyu returned yet? Call and urge them.”
Chen Runzhong peeked at the time, slightly frowning, said to Chen Dongqing with displeasure.
“I’m back.”
Just as he spoke, a female voice sounded, and a woman in a black evening dress walked in.
The woman was very tall, at least about 1.75 meters. Her figure was graceful, with a standard oval face, a real beauty.
“You girl, didn’t I call you earlier? Why now? Quickly greet Mr. Xu.”
Chen Runzhong got up pulling the woman to the dining table.
“Hello, Mr. Xu.”
The woman glanced at Xu Shaochen speaking listlessly.
“No need for such formality, Director Chen is this… your daughter?”
Xu Shaochen was puzzled. Chen Dongqiu never mentioned he had a sister.
Chen Runzhong laughed explaining “Mr. Xu, this is my brother’s daughter, named Dongyu a teacher at Yunzhou University.”
Hearing this, Xu Shaochen’s lips twitched. To play matchmaker, he didn’t have a daughter so he brought his brother’s daughter? This is too outrageous.
Xu Shaochen scrutinized Chen Dongqiu.
Chen Dongqiu looked dazed staring at Chen Runzhong and his brother Chen Dongqing, showing Xu Shaochen an innocent expression.
Swearing to the sky, he honestly didn’t know about this. Otherwise, he’d have informed Xu Shaochen beforehand.
