Leng Ling'er wasn't sure if Deng Feng could make her feel handsome.
But at this moment, right here.
Gu Yan was undeniably making her feel exceptionally handsome.
Inside the jewelry store.
The two little devils were leaning on the counter, trying on a necklace here and a bracelet there.
The shop assistant was very enthusiastic in introducing to Leng Ling'er and Bai Qionglan: "Sisters, you have such great taste. These are our store's top picks. They look perfect on you!"
Although the shop assistant was a full cycle older than the two high school students, the skill of speaking to people according to their status was basic for them.
Moreover, the shop assistant glanced at Gu Yan, who was currently at another counter.
Most of the bodyguards were also guarding him, and hearing the yellow-haired little devil call him brother-in-law, the shop assistant immediately knew that the man was the big spender of this shopping trip!
With so many bodyguards, he must be very rich! It's a pity he didn't come to her counter, but no matter, his sister-in-law! She had to take good care of her too!
Gu Yan looked at the dazzling array of gold jewelry and fell into a dilemma of choice.
He was torn. Would Qingqiu like these things? Gu Yan thought, since they were out already.
How could he really just buy some oil, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar? He definitely had to bring back some gifts!
Seeing his hesitation, the shop assistant immediately smiled brightly and started explaining and recommending: "Boss, take a look at this pair of symmetrical earrings. They are crafted with the most exquisite craftsmanship, and each gold diamond is hand-carved by world-famous master carvers. They are definitely your best choice."
Gu Yan took the earrings, feeling the texture in his hand. The dazzling gold sparkled under the light. The shop assistant continued: "These earrings are not only uniquely styled but can also be paired with various occasions, suitable for daily wear or even with evening gowns, highlighting your wife's taste and elegance."
Hearing this, Gu Yan smiled slightly, showing interest: "This one is indeed good. Are there any other options?"
The shop assistant quickly picked up another necklace and began to introduce it in detail, to which Gu Yan nodded.
Then the shop assistant went on to introduce several other expensive gold jewelry pieces.
Just as she was about to continue, Gu Yan raised his hand to stop her, then, with a slight pause, he pointed from the left to the right of the counter: "Alright, wrap all of these up for me."
"Make the packaging nice."
The sudden burst of happiness left the shop assistant's head buzzing.
She nodded blankly: "Oh..."
But soon she snapped back to reality, nodding repeatedly and excitedly: "Oh no! Thank you, boss! Thank you, boss! I'll wrap them up for you right away!"
"Don't look at me like this! I've done packaging work before! I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
Gu Yan waved his hand and walked over to Leng Ling'er.
Leng Ling'er was still torn about which one to buy with Bai Qionglan.
The former held a bracelet she really liked, but upon seeing the price... 166,000 yuan.
What a rip-off!
But... I really like it...
Leng Ling'er was torn. Although her brother-in-law had said today's shopping was on him, she still felt embarrassed asking him to buy such an expensive bracelet for her. If her sister found out, she would definitely scold her harshly.
Bai Qionglan noticed Leng Ling'er's hesitation and glanced at the price, poking her waist: "Ling'er, this seems a bit expensive... maybe we shouldn't buy it."
Leng Ling'er nodded, about to put the bracelet down when...
"Have you decided? What are you getting?"
Gu Yan walked over and picked up the bracelet in Leng Ling'er's hand.
The texture was fine and smooth, as if a witness to time, with exquisite craftsmanship integrated into the design, shimmering with a subtle luxurious aura.
Gu Yan glanced at the price and chuckled: "Not bad taste."
Leng Ling'er was a bit embarrassed, not daring to look at Gu Yan: "Brother-in-law... this is too expensive, maybe we shouldn't buy it."
"I'm just a high school student, buying this isn't appropriate..."
The shop assistant, seeing the big spender arrive, became even more enthusiastic: "The boss is right, this bracelet..."
Before she could continue, Gu Yan interrupted: "No need to explain. Since my sister-in-law likes it..."
He placed the bracelet on the counter and repeated the same action, pointing from left to right: "Wrap everything in this counter, including the bracelet."
The sudden burst of happiness...
This was practically their savior!
"Thank you, boss! Boss is so generous!!"
"Don't look at me like this, I've...”
Gu Yan waved his hand: "I know, you've done packaging work, right."
Leng Ling'er was left stunned. Wait, so sudden? So casual?
From left to right, all wrapped up? Are you buying groceries?
Isn't this what rich people do?!
Bai Qionglan was also dumbfounded. No way, is Ling'er's brother-in-law really that rich?
Bai Jun also shook his head repeatedly. Such extravagant shopping, is this the Gu family's young master?
"Brother-in-law! You're so handsome!!"
Leng Ling'er's eyes sparkled as she looked at Gu Yan, full of excitement: "You're like the male lead in a novel!"
Gu Yan's mouth twitched as he reached out to ruffle her yellow hair: "Take my advice, don't ever let your brother-in-law be the male lead in a novel."
He then looked at Bai Qionglan, who was still in a daze: "Don't be dazed, pick a few you like."
The latter was slightly stunned: "Me too?"
Gu Yan was puzzled: "Did you think I was joking when I said today's on me?"
"...…"
After a moment of silence, Bai Qionglan completely let go, pouncing towards Gu Yan to hug his arm: "Yay! Brother-in-law, you're the best!"
But before she could, she was pulled back by Bai Jun, who adjusted his glasses and smiled at Gu Yan: "Then I'll thank you on Qionglan's behalf, Gu Yan."
?
Gu Yan slowly raised a question mark. What's going on, Bai Jun? What are you trying to do?
He subtly moved a bit further away from Bai Qionglan.
Until they walked out of the jewelry store, the bodyguards behind them carrying big bags of purchases, Leng Ling'er still hadn't snapped out of it.
She wore the bracelet on her right hand, showing it to Bai Qionglan: "Just swipe that little card, pull it out, and boom, 3 million yuan gone."
"Oh my god! When will I be able to spend like this!"
Gu Yan said without mercy: "Think about it, you'll have it in your dreams."
Damn it! Once I become a big internet celebrity, Gu Yan, don't cry and beg me to take you to the top!
"Don't worry, that definitely won't happen."
Gu Yan assured her.
The group continued their journey to the next destination with laughter and chatter.
And after they left for about ten minutes.
Deng Feng arrived at the jewelry store.
He looked up at the magnificent door and the interior through the glass.
He immediately felt nervous and swallowed hard, reaching into his pocket where the 1,000 yuan from the Black Tortoise Gate master was.
For him, it was already a super huge sum.
Originally intended for him to buy a new outfit, but...
Deng Feng imagined a scenario where he bought a gift for Ling'er, and when he bravely saved her, he would present it to her, which would surely win her heart!
With this thought, Deng Feng stepped inside, you're different now, Deng Feng.
From this moment, change yourself!
But just as he entered, he heard arguing.
"What do you mean? The bracelet I wanted is gone? How did you do your job?"
"This guest, I'm really sorry... because you didn't come, so..."
"I was just going to get the money!! I should have told you!"
At the counter where Leng Ling'er had been earlier, the shop assistant was being fiercely scolded by a burly rich woman.
When Deng Feng saw the poor shop assistant being scolded, her head down, her face full of grievance.
He immediately felt a surge of desire to protect her.
He stepped forward boldly and shouted, "Stop it!"
That's right, Deng Feng, you've changed. Use the power you've been given... to protect others well!
spital. Good news: I've bound a system. Bad news: I'm still a baby. "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not bully the middle-aged for being poor — Divorce Comeback System."

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all."
