Chapter 273: Don’t Let Others Look Down on You

“Hey, little brother, this is no way to show off. Buying all these? Big words—do you even know how much this will cost?”

Chen Sha’s husband looked at Xu Shaochen with a calm expression, a smirk of disdain flickering in his eyes.

“I’m not interested in how much it costs. When I shop, I never care about the price. All that matters is whether I like it.”

Xu Shaochen smiled indifferently and turned to the sales assistant, saying, “Didn’t you hear me? Swipe the card and complete the transaction. Are you doing business or not? If not, we’re leaving.”

“Hehe, don’t be in such a hurry to leave. What’s the matter? Now that I’ve exposed your bluff, you’re trying to flee? I’m very eager to see how you plan to pay.”

Chen Sha’s husband sneered, not believing for a second that Xu Shaochen could afford such a sum.

After all, many people have tens of thousands on hand, but very few would spend that kind of money on clothes.

“Qingyu, why did you choose a young guy like him as your boyfriend? He’s all talk and no action, boasting so shamelessly that even I feel embarrassed.”

Chen Sha realized her husband might be right. What if Xu Shaochen was indeed bluffing? How could a young guy like him have so much money?

Zhao Qingyu remained silent, completely uninterested in communicating with such people.

The sales assistant wasn’t skeptical at all. Based on her work experience in a luxury clothing store, she could easily recognize the brand of Xu Shaochen’s clothes.

Given that he was wearing clothes worth thirty or forty thousand, it was clear that affording tens of thousands more wouldn’t be an issue.

What shocked her was that it was her first time seeing someone buy so many clothes at once.

“Sir, please wait a moment.”

The sales assistant smiled slightly at Xu Shaochen and soon returned with a card reader.

Chen Sha and her husband watched coldly from the sidelines, smirking in anticipation of the scene.

They were waiting for the moment when Xu Shaochen would be thoroughly humiliated, so they could step in and make it even worse.

Xu Shaochen smoothly swiped his card and confidently entered his PIN.

“Sir, we offer home delivery. Would you like us to have these clothes delivered to your place?”

After the payment went through, the sales assistant’s smile became even warmer. Given that Xu Shaochen was a significant customer, she hoped to turn him into a long-term client.

“How… how is this possible?!”

Chen Sha and her husband were dumbfounded by what they saw, their faces frozen in disbelief.

“Don’t use your entire family fortune to challenge my daily pocket money. You’re simply limited by your own poverty.”

Xu Shaochen spoke with a calm tone, his eyes filled with amusement and mockery.

Chen Sha and her husband stood there, their faces turning from blue to white, as though they had been slapped hard, their cheeks burning with shame.

“Qingyu, we have something to do… We’ll leave now. Enjoy yourselves.”

Chen Sha awkwardly threw out the words and hurriedly left with her husband, their faces flushed with embarrassment.

After all, they had embarrassed themselves to the point they couldn’t face anyone. Trying to show off had backfired spectacularly.

“Pack everything up and have someone help load it into the car downstairs.”

Xu Shaochen told the sales assistant. His Rolls-Royce was likely going to be packed to the brim, but at least it was a long-wheelbase model with plenty of space.

“You really didn’t have to do that; it’s not like I know them well anyway.”

While the sales assistant packed the clothes, Zhao Qingyu, feeling touched, said softly to Xu Shaochen.

Xu Shaochen smiled, gently touching Zhao Qingyu’s cheek. “As long as I’m here, no one is allowed to look down on you.”

“Shaochen,” Zhao Qingyu felt her heart race, as though she was getting lost in the moment.

“Hmm?” Xu Shaochen looked at Zhao Qingyu, puzzled.

Zhao Qingyu gently leaned on Xu Shaochen’s shoulder, lowering her voice. “Tonight, use that thing in my bag.”

After saying this, her face turned so red it looked like it could drip water, and she didn’t dare to look Xu Shaochen in the eye.

This was the boldest thing she had ever said, leaving her deeply embarrassed.

“No.” Xu Shaochen shook his head, refusing.

Zhao Qingyu was startled, her face turning pale as she looked at Xu Shaochen. “You… you don’t like me?”

“I mean, I don’t want to wear it.” Xu Shaochen gave her a mischievous grin and whispered in her ear.

“You’re so bad! You’re just teasing me.”

Zhao Qingyu was instantly overwhelmed with embarrassment, playfully hitting Xu Shaochen’s chest with her fists.

“Hahahaha…”

Xu Shaochen laughed heartily and pulled Zhao Qingyu tightly into his embrace.

After the store staff had loaded all the clothes into the car, Xu Shaochen brought Zhao Qingyu back to Yunzhou University.

Then, he asked Long Yi and Long Er to help carry all the clothes to Zhao Qingyu’s dorm.

“I’m going to take a shower first.”

After Long Yi and Long Er left, Zhao Qingyu blushed and said softly. Tonight, she would be giving her body to a man for the first time.

“Together?” Xu Shaochen pulled her close and asked tentatively.

Zhao Qingyu blushed and nodded, her voice as soft as a mosquito. Then the two of them walked into the bathroom and began to bathe together.

Half an hour later, Xu Shaochen carried a naked Zhao Qingyu into the bedroom…

As a painful cry echoed through the room, the world lost one more girl and gained another true woman.

Forty minutes later, peace returned to the bedroom.

“Qingyu, how was it?” Xu Shaochen asked her.

Zhao Qingyu buried her head under the blanket, too shy to answer.

“Qingyu, quit your job at school. I’ll take care of you from now on.”

Hearing this, Zhao Qingyu peeked out from under the blanket. “No way, I want to be independent. Besides, what if you don’t want me anymore someday?”

“That day will never come, I promise.” Xu Shaochen said firmly, then slipped under the blanket.

“Ah! What are you doing?”

“I want you to bear me a son, so then you can quit your job.”

“No way! You jerk, you’re always bullying me! You’re so bad.”

“Oh, and don’t tell my brother about this. I don’t want him to know.”

“That might be hard. He’s already calling me his brother-in-law.”

“That rascal, he’s been completely bought off by you, hasn’t he? So disloyal.”

Xu Shaochen stayed with Zhao Qingyu until 11 PM, before finally returning to the hotel.

If not for the fact that he had to attend the Zhou Family’s eldest son’s wedding tomorrow, he felt like he could have stayed up all night.

Oh, and just to note, the wedding gift prepared for the Zhou Family’s eldest son—a fine sandalwood coffin—had already been purchased by four men for Xu Shaochen.

Rumor has it, these four men spent most of their savings on it, so Xu Shaochen decided to repay them double the amount spent on the coffin.
