Chapter 384: Qingsang Doesn’t Have A Sister Like You

As she spoke, Su Peizhen threw the shop assistant a look. “Didn’t you hear me? Get your boss out here.”

“Miss Su?” That shop assistant had a whole new attitude towards Su Peizhen. She bowed slightly and said, a little embarrassed, “I’ll get him right now.”

She could afford to offend Xiang Caiping, who seemed to be unable to afford the item in question. However, she couldn’t allow herself to slight Su Peizhen

“That’s right. A harmonious approach always brings wealth. We must have the right attitude even towards those who are unreasonable and unable to afford things. Am I right?”

Su Peizhen looked as if she was talking to the shop assistant, but she was actually looking at Xiang Caiping.

The meaning within her words was very obvious — don’t buy it if you can’t afford it. Don’t even bother looking at it.

Xiang Caiping’s brows were knitted tightly together. The dislike towards Su Peizhen was very apparent.

It wasn’t just plain dislike. When she thought about how much Su Peizhen had bullied Su Qingsang in the dark over the years, she really despised this girl.

“Miss Su, it seems like this is none of your business.”

“It’s really none of my business, but Qingsang and I, after all, are like sisters. I should be looking out for her mother too, don’t you think so?”

Looking out for me? More like entertaining yourself with the drama, right? Xiang Caiping refused to believe that Su Peizhen would be so generous.

“Auntie. Actually, it’s totally fine if you can’t afford it. I’ll buy it for you. After all, I won’t mind spending a few hundred thousand at all.”

Su Peizhen said this in an extremely casual manner as if a few hundred thousand was a mere trifle.

Xiang Caiping detested Su Peizhen’s behavior. Truthfully, she never understood how a gentleman like Su Chenghui managed to bring up a daughter like that.

“No thanks. I can afford it.”

“Is that so?” Su Peizhen didn’t believe that. From how she saw it, although Huo Jinyao must be rich, he wouldn’t just let Xiang Caiping dip her hand into his money.

It was rumored that Xiang Caiping came from an ordinary background — it was impossible that she was loaded.

Now she claimed she can afford a jade pendant priced at a few hundred thousand? What kind of joke was this?

“Auntie. Are you sure about that? It’s better to stay humble than to keep up a facade.”

Su Peizhen turned around and glanced at the jade Buddha. This woman had a pretty exquisite taste. She lifted her gaze and fixed them upon the shop assistant. “How much did you say this piece of jade was?”

“Miss Su, the original price of that jade piece is 550,000. As we are currently having a New Year promotion, there’s a 20% off all jade accessories. After the discount, it’ll be 440,000.”

“440,000?” Su Peizhen nodded approvingly at the jade Buddha. “That’s not expensive at all. Auntie, let me buy it for you as a gift.”

“There’s no need to. I don’t want it anymore.”

Xiang Caiping’s initial enthusiasm at getting her daughter a gift had now completely dissipated.

She turned to leave. However, Su Peizhen took a step forward and blocked her off. “Why, don’t be hasty, Auntie. I’ve already told you, I’ll buy it for you. Why’re you leaving already?”

“Out of my way!” Xiang Caiping glared at Su Peizhen, her expression turning sour.

“Would you ladies look at that — how ungrateful.” Su Peizhen stole a glance at Madam Luo and Madam Song. “I was just being nice. Look, I wanted to get it for her as a gift, but my kindness isn’t appreciated — isn’t this weird?”

Madam Luo and Madam Song would be an absolute waste of space if they still failed to make out the animosity between Su Peizhen and Xiang Caiping.
