Chapter 112: Trying on the Jewelry
"I know, big brother, they are just trying to sow discord. That’s all they can do, it’s meaningless. Let’s finish shopping quickly and leave." Xia Xi looked at the somewhat nervous Xia Yu. She didn’t display any of the cunning strategies or decisive actions people talked about in the shopping field.
"Alright." Xia Yu nodded with a smile, then took them to find a salesperson, asking them to bring out the best hand jewelry and necklaces for selection.
This time Xia Yu didn’t let them pick entirely on their own. Instead, he first asked for their preferences, then selected for them based on their previous outfits. He asked them to sit to the side while he made the selections.
Bai Yuran and several others didn’t leave either. They were also looking at jewelry on the side - after all, there would be many people at the celebration the next day, and it was only right for the girls to dress up properly.
And this store was the most famous jewelry store in the country, with both design and material at the very top level.
Bai Yuran, Tang Yao, and Zhang Ya watched as Xia Yu chose the most expensive and beautiful items in the store for Xia Yue and Xia Xi to try on. Their eyes were a little red.
Never mind Tang Yao and Zhang Ya - their families were nowhere near as wealthy as the Xia and Bai Families. Though they were jealous, they were mostly envious.
But it was different for Bai Yuran. The Bai Family was about the same as the Xia Family. Bai Yuran was the most favored daughter of the Bai Family and the most famous beauty in Kyoto, an undisputed goddess. Yet even she couldn’t spend as much money as Xia Yu, the General Manager of the Xia Family.
So she couldn’t afford the top-tier jewelry.
Watching Xia Yu continually trying out items on Xia Yue and Xia Xi, she was seething with anger. Added to that was the previous incident with Yan Mo’s photo, which made her even more resentful of Xia Yue.
"Young Master Yu really treats his sisters well. These are all the best hand jewelry and necklaces from the Gold and Jade Full Glory section. I wonder if Sister Qing has her share?" Bai Yuran approached and asked with a smile.
