Chapter 12

He Baizhi was immersed in the ocean of love. Although living at the Lin family’s home made her very uncomfortable, and the food was nothing but plain porridge and pickled vegetables every meal, just thinking about being with Lin Moyu made everything feel sweet.

That “monstrous nobody” Fu Tingshen must be desperately searching for her all over the world right now!

——————————

“Tingshen baby, shouldn’t you be going to the company?” Xu Xinghe asked, looking at Fu Tingshen, who showed no intention of going to work.

Fu Tingshen said nothing. He simply kept nuzzling into the crook of her neck. What even was work? He only wanted to cling to his baby~

Xu Xinghe coaxed him for a long time before Fu Tingshen reluctantly put on his suit. Before getting into the car, he gave her a deep, lingering look, as if she were a heartless wife abandoning her husband.

After Fu Tingshen left, Xu Xinghe suddenly felt the manor become a little empty. Habit really is a terrifying thing…

Bored, Xu Xinghe suddenly decided to go to a nearby luxury shopping mall. She planned to ruthlessly “spend” Fu Tingshen’s money and show him just how extravagant she could be—maybe then he would work properly and earn more~

Today, Xu Xinghe was wearing a white outfit from the latest seasonal collection. As soon as she entered the store, she was surrounded by sales associates. She casually picked one quiet-looking girl to serve her.

The surrounding chatter immediately quieted down. The chosen sales associate, He Shengnan, instantly became highly alert. She loved this job—good pay, excellent benefits—so she began introducing various handbags very professionally.

After walking around for a while, He Shengnan felt her throat go dry. She glanced at the woman beside her. She was breathtakingly beautiful; they were very close, yet she couldn’t even see her pores. Her lips were like glossy jelly, perfectly red and luminous…

“All of those from earlier—I’ll take them~” Xu Xinghe decided after some thought to spare herself the trouble of choosing. She didn’t do options. She wanted everything.

He Shengnan snapped back from her daze at the woman’s beauty, almost unable to believe what she had just heard. She asked again to confirm, her voice trembling slightly: “Madam, did you mean… all of them?”

After receiving confirmation, He Shengnan felt as though she had just won the lottery. Excitement surged through her, her voice shaking: “Yes, madam… please take a seat.”

Just as Xu Xinghe sat down on the sofa, a sharp female voice came from the entrance: “Where is He Shengnan? Where the hell did she die off to?”

Xu Xinghe turned toward the sound and saw a woman wearing outdated branded clothes, heavy red lipstick on her lips that looked cheap against her sallow complexion.

He Baizhi had brought her remaining eighty thousand yuan to buy a bag. Thinking that her cousin He Shengnan worked here, she came looking for her.

“He Shengnan… He Shengnan!” He Baizhi’s expression darkened when she saw that her cousin didn’t come out to greet her.

She had kindly come to support a poor relative’s business, yet she was being ignored!

Frustrated, she desperately looked for someone to vent her anger on. Her sharp eyes landed on Xu Xinghe sitting on the sofa, as if she had found a perfect target.

“You, what are you looking at?! What kind of trashy store lets just anyone in!” He Baizhi snapped, yelling without restraint.

Xu Xinghe, who had been minding her own business, suddenly became the target of hostility and frowned slightly.

Just as she was wondering who this woman was, the system’s voice sounded in her mind:

【Xingxing, the female lead has appeared!】

Xu Xinghe’s confusion deepened. This woman with a sallow face and foul mouth… is the female lead???

But so what if she was the female lead.

“I’ve always liked watching clown performances since I was little,” Xu Xinghe said with obvious disgust, resting her face on her hand as she shot back lazily.

He Baizhi had already assumed Xu Xinghe was alone and simply a beautiful “vixen-like” woman. She refused to admit her own jealousy and deliberately tried to pick a fight.

She didn’t expect this “fox spirit” to actually call her a clown!

“You… who are you calling a clown?!” He Baizhi snapped angrily.

“Whoever answers, I’m talking about them~” Xu Xinghe replied with a light laugh, watching the so-called female lead get worked up.

He Shengnan returned after packing the items and immediately saw her cousin arguing with her customer. She quickly stepped forward to intervene.

At this point, a message-like promotional line appeared:
