Chapter 284

284 What Are You Afraid Of? This mall that sold luxurious products had existed for more than ten years.

As it was well-loved by distinguished women from influential families, every woman from the four greatfamilies wanted to buy it.

But it was a pity that the owner of the mall was unwilling to sell it.

Moreover, the owner also acted like he wasn’t scared of offending the four great families.

In recent years, the four great families didn’t want to be said to not have the magnanimity of toleratingothers. Moreover, this was just a small mall selling luxurious products, so the heads of the four greatfamilies didn’t take this too seriously.

After all, their wives rarely shopped in person. Most of the time, the brands would bring the clothes totheir door for them to take their pick.

Third Madam Bai had been pestered by Shen Wanxian to come out and shop today just to break themonotony and for enjoyment.

However, over the years, everyone had been trying to guess the owner of the mall.

Now to think that a lady boss had appeared?

Third Madam Bai, Shen Wanxian, and Wen Yuyi’s gaze all landed on Madam Yun first. It was becausethe Ford City’s Yun Family had the financial capability of buying a mall.

(Turns out that this is uncle’s property.)

Wen Yuyi bit her lips.

At this moment, she faintly felt regret for having offended the Yun Family. It was all Shen Ruojing’sfault. This woman who had no background caused her and her mother to lose their calm and gooverboard with their actions.

Shen Ruojing and her mother were just two country bumpkins. Why did they have to care about themback then?!

But just as Wen Yuyi and Shen Wanxian thought of this, the fat manager then smiled like he wascurrying up to someone as he walked up to Shen Ruojing. “Lady Boss, what did you take a liking to?Boss gave instructions that you can take anything directly and we just have to put it on his tab.”

Everyone. “???”

Shen Ruojing raised her brows.

When the fat manager was talking, she realized something. Now, she had confirmed her guess.

The talk about Chu Cichen looking for the fat manager to discuss business, the talk about how it wasn’teasy for him to move his business to the capital… Her heart had ached for him a little earlier. But itturned out that this mall belonged to him!

“…” Shen Ruojing’s lips twitched.

At this moment, Wen Yuyi’s sharp voice rang out. “That’s impossible!”

Everyone looked at her.

Shen Wanxian tugged her daughter’s arm, gesturing for her not to speak carelessly.

However, Wen Yuyi couldn’t be bothered to care so much. She continued shouting, “Who is your boss?How can she be the lady boss? She got pregnant out of wedlock, and the children she gave birth to are

from an illegitimate child of the Chu Family!”

The fat manager was usually full of smiles no matter who he was talking to. However, when he heardthese words, his countenance changed and he said angrily, “My boss is the CEO of Chu Corporation.What illegitimate son? This lady, please show more respect!”

Hearing this, Wen Yuyi was so astonished that her footsteps became unstable and she staggered alittle.

Chu Cichen… that god-like person…

He was someone whom she had wanted to get involved with, but she was then ‘convinced’ otherwiseby Chu Cichen’s daughter.

So, that demon-like daughter was also Shen Ruojing’s!

The country bumpkin she had always looked down upon turned out to be Chu Cichen’s wife!!

At this moment, Wen Yuyi finally understood why Matriarch Chu treated Shen Ruojing so well…

The fat manager looked at Wen Yuyi and then pointed to the door. “Our mall doesn’t welcome you.Please leave immediately.”

Wen Yuyi’s face turned flush red. Thankfully, she was wearing a mask and shades, so people didn’trecognize her. She took a deep breath and had no choice but to leave sheepishly with Qian Nanyin.

Third Madam Bai also gritted her teeth.

She thought that she had picked someone easy to bully but hadn’t expected that the girl who wasdressed in ordinary clothes didn’t come from a simple background.

However, she didn’t feel anything about this. After all, she didn’t care about the boss of a mall. She justlet out a “hmph” and left with Shen Wanxian.

After the few of them left, the fat manager then smiled flatteringly at Shen Ruojing.

Shen Ruojing asked, “Where’s Chu Cichen?”

The fat manager immediately said, “The boss had something on and has left. Lady boss, please feelfree to take a look around slowly. Just take whatever you like.”

After saying that, the fat manager then waved his hand. “These few people can follow you and help youguys to carry stuff. They’ll also send the items back home for you.”

“…”

Madam Yun and Yun Wei had thought that as the less influential side, they would be bullied. But thetables were instantly turned, leaving them still a little stunned.

After the place was cleared, there was no one to disturb them anymore.

The three of them then continued to shop and bought a lot.

Yun Wei and Madam Yun didn’t stand on ceremony with Chu Cichen. The two of them bought a lot andspent his money in revenge. They even customized a few sets of gowns. After all, they were definitelygoing to be attending many banquets in the future.

Shen Ruojing followed behind the two of them. At 5 p.m., she finally heaved a sigh of relief after theyfinished shopping.

She was never going shopping with them again in the future.

She was so tired from walking!

When the three of them returned to the Chu family, they saw Bai Xiaojiu waiting at the entrance. YunWei hurriedly got out of the car and went over to talk to him.

Madam Yun came to the guest room anxiously and looked for Yun Zhengyang to ask, “Is the matterwith Madman’s calligraphy settled?”

Yun Zhengyang said, “It’s settled.”

Afraid that Madam Yun wouldn’t believe him, he came up with a white lie. “I’ve got someone to verifythis calligraphy work. It was done by Madman.”

“Really?”

Madam Yun’s eyes lit up.

Shen Ruojing had really given her too many surprises today.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door and Yun Wei walked in.

Madam Yun asked, “Didn’t you go on a date?”

Bai Xiaojiu was waiting at the door.

Yun Wei said, “Yes, he’s treating me to dinner. He originally wanted to treat the two of you as well, but Ithink Mother must be tired from shopping for the entire day. By the way, he gave this item to Father, soI decided to bring this over here. He’s still waiting for me. I’ll get going first.”

After her daughter left, Madam Yun curled her lips. “She’s not afraid that I’ll get tired. She clearly wantsto spend some alone time with him.”

After saying that, she looked at the gift box Bai Xiaojiu had sent over. “What is this? Hurry up and openit.”

Yun Zhengyang was also puzzled. After opening the box, he saw that it was a calligraphy piece.

Yun Zhengyang vaguely guessed something in his heart and immediately opened this piece ofcalligraphy. It was indeed Madman’s calligraphy!

Madam Yun saw it too.

Moreover, what Bai Xiaojiu brought over was definitely not fake.

Madam Yun’s expression froze

When she was mocked and humiliated by Third Madam Bai during the shopping today, she actually felta faint anger in her heart. She felt that it was better to cancel this marriage. It was indeed not a goodthing for her daughter to marry into a family that was much better than theirs.

But now, her heart was suddenly warmed by her son-in-law’s thoughtfulness

She sighed. “He’s so considerate.”

Yun Zhengyang also sighed. “This calligraphy piece must belong to Old Master Bai. He helped hisgrandson arrange the marriage, so he would surely help his grandson. In that case, we’ll give him bothpieces!”

One of them was authentic! Used to keep up appearances.

One was a replica that even Vice-President Li almost wanted to pay a high price to buy. The old masterwould definitely like it!

This time, he had gained some face.

Downstairs

Shen Ruojing brought up the matter that had taken place at the mall briefly.

Matriarch Chu said in surprise, “My family actually has such a big mall?”

She clearly was unaware of this.

Shen Ruojing. “…”

She thought that given how the Chu Corporation started a business in real estate, it was normal forthem to have land and properties all across the country. However, given the current situation, it seemedthat even Matriarch Chu was unaware of them possessing the mall?

Could that be Chu Cichen’s personal property?

Tsk.

It seemed that the little puppy wasn’t simple either!

She asked, “Where are the three kids?”

“Oh, in the movie room watching a movie.”

Shen Ruojing got up and went to check on the three children.

In the movie room.

The three children sat on the sofa. Chu Xiaomeng was hugging her dinosaur soft toy, staring at thescreen and shivering. (Hmm? There are so many people! It’s so scary!)

Suddenly, the scene changed.

Those people turned out to not be actual people but ghosts!

Both Chu Yu and Chu Tianye let out a surprised gasp.

Chu Yu was so scared that he closed his eyes. He really missed his mommy! Next time, maybe hecould ask his mommy to watch a horror film with him? It would justify him diving into her arms!

On the other hand, Chu Tianye took out a stack of notes and his bank card. He would only feel a senseof security when hugging his money.

At this moment, the two of them heard the sound of someone exhaling.

Both of them turned to look at Chu Xiaomeng in unison. They saw the small figure that was tensed upearlier and was hugging her dinosaur tightly was now relaxed.

Chu Tianye. “Sister, aren’t you scared?”

Chu Xiaomeng looked at them quietly. “They aren’t living people. What’s there to be scared of?”

Chu Tianye and Chu Yu. “????”

Shen Ruojing who had just pushed open the door and entered. “??”

Shen Ruojing’s lips twitched when she heard Chu Tianye shouting, “Mommy! Hurry up and go back toyour room! Daddy prepared a surprise for you!”

Shen Ruojing was a little shocked.

What surprise?
