Qin Yan, you are dead today!
Southern red agate would supposedly boost vitality and she thought of gifting it to Elder Su.
Qin Yan raised her eyebrows and said, "This is not bad…"
"This set is 8.6 million!"
The manager walked back with the wrapped bag, frowning at Qin Yan cautiously. She looked as if she was afraid that Qin Yan would touch it.
"I want this. Wrap it up."
The manager's face froze and she looked at Qin Yan warily. "Are you sure?"
"Don't you understand human language?" asked Qin Yan as she frowned.
Qin Muran surveyed Qin Yan with a frown on her face.
She went up to take a look at the Southern red agate bracelet that Qin Yan had her eye on. She said to the manager after a brief contemplation, "Since Sister wants me to choose first, I shall not stand on ceremony. That Southern red agate bracelet is indeed pretty. Sister, I'll buy it for Dad then. Look…"
Qin Yan smirked quietly to herself as she gestured graciously.
"Since it's for Dad, I won't compete with you. I'll let you have it."
"Thank you, Sister."
Qin Muran smiled before choosing another set of black pearls which cost 6.6 million yuan. She also saw a pair of gold rings on the counter which cost 3 million yuan.
The manager's head was buzzing and she felt as though it was going to explode.
These sets of jewelry could be described as the key highlight of the store's collection. The quality was exquisite!
The younger generation these days were in pursuit of fashion and romance. Not many would appreciate these genuine items.
These jewelry had been in the store for many years. Who would have expected that she would sell all today.
"Please wrap these up for me."
The manager was so delighted that she was beaming from ear to ear. At the thought of her commission, bonus and promotion, she felt as though success was just within her reach!
Stealing a glance at Qin Yan, annoyance and irritation rose inside of her!
After Qin Yan received several looks of disdain, the manager scanned her with a scornful expression again. She then turned to Qin Muran with a polite and respectful smile.
"Yes yes yes! Please make payment first, Miss Qin."
"Sure."
Qin Muran pressed her lips tightly. Even though there was no expression on her face, her heart ached.
Everything she spent today was the money she had saved up in the entire year. Other than her usual expenses, there was a total of 25 million yuan left in her card.
When she was about to pay, Yang Lin pulled her aside.
"Muran, what are you thinking? One set is enough and you already paid 8.8 million yuan. She can't compete with you. Don't be silly and spend so much money."
Qin Muran shook her head as her eyes glinted dangerously.
"No, she does have money. Or else she wouldn't be so confident. I just don't know how much she has! Since I want that Touch Your Heart, I must have it!"
Especially when it was what Qin Yan wanted as well!
Mu Yuyin frowned and asked, "Is she really that rich?"
Qin Muran scrutinized Qin Yan, who was walking and browsing around the store. Even though it was only her back, her relaxed posture and expression was detestable.
Yang Lin went silent for a while before saying, "It's alright Muran, you've spent a total of 24 million yuan just now! Even if she put herself for sale for the next century, she won't have that much money. Let her experience the consequences of stealing from you today. I want to see how she can walk away today!"
Upon hearing that, Qin Muran smiled smugly.
"Hey, Muran, hold on."
Yang Lin seemed to have thought of something and called Qin Muran. She then signaled to her quietly before walking towards Qin Yan.
Qin Yan stood silently the entire time, watching everything that happened in the store coldly. Her expression was devoid of any emotion.
"Qin Yan, are you sure you want to compete with us?"
Qin Yan didn't even look at her. Her eyes gleamed as she said calmly, "Of course."
Excitement flashed across Yang Lin's eyes as she said hastily, "Alright! Then let's finalize the rules. The winner can naturally buy Touch Your Heart. But the loser will have to kneel and say 'Your Majesty, as your servant, I'm in the wrong.' Do it three times!"
"Wow!"
"There's going to be a good show!"
The crowd erupted in excitement and anticipation.
Yet, Qin Yan suddenly gave a cold sneer.
She was completely… shocked by Yang Lin's words!
How evil was she to have thought of such an idea?
Your Majesty?
I'm in the wrong?
Taking a deep breath, she massaged her temples, her face darkening with gloom.
"Is there a need for the stakes to go so high? This punishment is too unreasonable. Forget it."
Scorn flashed across Yang Lin's face as she taunted, "Why? You don't dare to? Looking at your confidence just now, I thought you were determined? After staying silent so long, do you reckon you're going to lose and that's why you don't know what to do?"
Qin Yan frowned unhappily and waved her hand. She replied patiently, "Do as you deem fit!"
Yang Lin thought that her goading had worked.
Raising her eyebrows smugly, Yang Lin added, "Qin Yan, you're overestimating yourself. You're so dead today."
Then, she walked to Qin Muran's side and whispered to her. Qin Muran looked at Qin Yan before taking out her card once again.
A total of 15.5 million yuan.. She successfully swiped the card.
There were many onlookers at the entrance of the store. Everyone was anticipating the ending of the show!
Hidden amongst the crowd, Qiao Qing was live streaming everything that was happening in the store… She hoped Qin Yan's boyfriend to look at whatever was happening and provide help to her best friend.
At about the same time that Yang Lin had announced that, "This is what Muran wanted! She's the future Young Madam of the Global World Entertainment. Are you sure you want to offend the Xi family because of this woman?", Qiao Qing had arrived at the store.
Analyzing the situation inside, she blinked quietly but didn't rush in immediately.
She decided to livestream the whole scenario in hope that Qin Yan's boyfriend would help her.0
Coincidentally, Tong Chunian rushed into Xi Ting's office, "President, you have to see this!"
On Xi Ting's order, Tong Chunian had another duty to protect Qin Yan. He had to keep all the tabs on Qin Yan and report everything to Xi Ting if Qin Yan was in trouble.
On the screen, Qin Yan's face appeared. Then, it was her words—
"I didn't want the man and I don't care about him. Since you've put in the effort to seduce and put on a pretense, I shall give them to you! It's been tough on you. But if I insist on not letting something go, you can forget about getting a single cent from me!"
"As for me trying to win Xi Yaohua back? Ha…"
"Are you saying that I'm spending time, effort and money to please a man that I don't want? How different is that from me hurling money onto a pile of feces? Only you all treat him as though he is in high demand!"
Xi Ting raised an eyebrow as a faint smile widened on his face. His gaze had never left the girl in the video. She stood straight and was calm and composed. She was handling the situation well.
Excitement and interest filled his eyes as he stared at Qin Yan's slender figure. He entered a trance.
She was so beautiful!

The manager delegated the task of wrapping the jewelry to another staff member. She happened to see Qin Muran swiping her card once more. The cashier smiled and handed her the card.
Her heart was pounding with excitement. It was a success!
After Qin Muran swiped her card, she strolled back to Qin Yan and said gently, "Sister, I'm done paying. Actually, you can choose not to buy it! I bought all of these willingly. Auntie Cai, Uncle Xi, and Daddy have always been good to me all these years. Buying these things to give them is my duty as daughter and future daughter-in-law. I've never thought of competing with you to see who's richer between us. After all, I'm aware of your current situation…"
Finishing her sentence, Qin Muran gave a soft smile. She was gentle, gracious and elegant. It sounded as if she was kind enough by giving Qin Yan a way out. But actually, she was getting her to admit defeat?
She also wanted to emphasize Qin Yan's dire situation!
What situation was Qin Yan in now?
They assumed that she was a daughter who had been chased out of the house. She was a sparrow who had failed to become a phoenix, and a girl who could be bought by any man for the right amount of money.
