Gu Ye emerged first, striding away confidently. Several minutes later, Gu Jianshe limped out.

With each step, he grimaced in anguish, as if he’d been falling apart.

He returned to his office, puzzled.

How did Gu Ye find out that he was the one spreading rumors? He had been so careful, did this guy have eyes everywhere?

Damn it!

Why did he have to be the nephew? He was too scared by the family hierarchy to fight back, and even if he had, he might not have won, but his incapability to defend himself was extremely aggravating.

Fuming, Gu Jianshe slammed his fist on the desk, wincing in pain. 

Every part of his body ached, and a wave of bitter sorrow washed over him. How did his life get to this point?

He was supposed to be the brilliant, promising young man everyone envied and admired. 

So, why was he enduring such misery?

That bastard Gu Ye was his curse. One of them had to go: Gu Ye or him!

Unaware that Gu Ye had stood up for her, Chu Qiao finished her breakfast and headed out to Lin Baiwei’s clothing store.

The store was located in a bustling area of Shanghai, was at least 100 square meters in size, and consisted of three contiguous shops. 

The rent alone cost a fortune each month, and the interior was exquisitely designed, sophisticated enough to stay in style even two decades later. 

The decor didn’t come cheap, yet business was disappointingly slow. 

Chu Qiao felt Lin Baiwei was running the store more as a passion project than for profit. Otherwise, she would have gone bankrupt years ago.

The boutique was stocked with elegant qipaos and contemporary women’s apparel imported from Hong Kong, keeping up with the latest trends.

The prices, of course, were high. Nothing in the store cost less than a hundred yuan, which was a month’s salary of an ordinary worker. 

“Amei, is Boss Lin here?” 

Chu Qiao was already acquainted with the staff after several visits.

Lin Baiwei employed Amei as a sales assistant. She had a high school education and a remarkable physique. She was taller than Chu Qiao, with well-proportioned features that made her a natural model for the store’s products. 

Everything she wore showcased the outfits perfectly.

“She’ll be here shortly. Please have a seat, Miss Chu.” 

Amei greeted her warmly and even brought over a chair.

Amei was a girl from Harbin in the north, she was fair-skinned, tall, with a pleasant voice and pretty features. 

She had many suitors but wasn’t interested in any of them. 

She dreamed of marrying a local Shanghai man, not some older bachelor, but a young, handsome, educated local with a house of his own.

“That sweater you’re wearing is lovely. How much is it?”

Chu Qiao was instantly drawn to the sweater Amei was wearing. 

It was a light gray, long and loose-fitting with a high, foldable collar. The sweater was so long it could easily cover the hips. 

Amei matched it with black leggings.

She looked sophisticated and gorgeous in the outfit, given her height, slim figure and slender legs.

Chu Qiao fell in love with it at first sight.

“168 yuan. It’s a new item that arrived yesterday. Since you are interested, I can sell it for 100 yuan.” Amei replied with a smile.

She was aware of Chu Qiao’s relationship with the boss, so she quoted the best price directly.

“Deal. Get me one. I just bought two pairs of leggings, so this will go perfectly with them. I’ll take the gray one.” 

Chu Qiao replied without hesitation.

A hundred yuan might be considered expensive for someone living on a salary, but to her, it was reasonable. 

After all, she got five thousand for a single hair growth treatment.

“We also have it in a soft yellow. Would you like to try that one on too?”

Amei went to the storage room and brought out two sweaters of the same style, one in the light gray she was wearing, and the other in a soft yellow.

Chu Qiao was tempted and brought the clothes to the fitting room to put on.

She was dressed casually today, in a white blouse and trousers.

This oversized sweater looks great with skinny pants.
