Chapter 260: Chocolate Box
Xiao Yun had expected this somewhat or another and didn't feel their words to be the least offensive. Although she hasn't seen the expression thundering Han Mi Er's face, she could guess the woman was on a verge of snapping right now. It made her felt proud and happy for her older brother to date a woman with a kind soul she thought.
"Do you know, Chang Lu, Xie Ru." Xiao Yun started, replying to their sarcasm in a gentle tone. "Were you trying to insult me and the Wang Family?" At her words, the two women had a puzzled expression. "What are you saying, Xiao Yun? Of course not. Did you perhaps took my words as offensive?" Lin Chang Lu created herself in a position of a person who was accused. With disgust, Han Mi Er covered her mouth and snorted. Lin Chang Lu didn't missed the sound coming from Han Mi Er but toned her glare a little due to Han Xi Guang's heavy presence that sat silently like an eagle.
Placing her purse to the counter she sighed, "I thought you was a bright person so I didn't wish to say it here aloud but if you really don't understand what I mean, then I have no choice. I am Wang Li Lei's fiance, Chang Lu. As the fiance of Wang Li Lei, I don't see the need for a nameless person to be concerned with my finance, don't you think? And you too Xie Ru from now on I advice you to know your place and mind your mouth. Every words you said to me just now doesn't point only to me but to the Wang Family. If I heard any words again from your mouth that smeared Wang Family's name, I could even take the matter to the court." Her words were firm, warning the women of the places they should come to realization right now.
Xie Ru let an uncomfortable laughter. "Please don't be too rash Xiao Yun. I was only joking."
"It could be a joke to you but not to others, Xie Ru." Xiao Yun turned her face to the young employee. "Please pack the miss's items, I can pay what I chose myself." She pressed her tone not to the man but toward Lin Chang Lu again.
Lin Chang Lu gritted her teeth, her eyes showed her detest that she didn't bother to hide anymore. As the young employee packed the necklace she bought in a red gift wrap and blue ribbon, Lin Chang Lu reached out her card swiftly and paid for her item before leaving the counter like a wind without leaving a goodbye. Some times, there were people who often need to be reminded of their place, such as Lin Chang Lu and Xie Ru. It was normal for women to twist words but they had gotten over the line and Xiao Yun wouldn't stay silent for such an Insolent behavior.
She thought Lin Chang Lu was a crafty woman who was rather smart on her scheme but it seemed without a proper planning her scheme was a low graded one. Suddenly Xiao Yun furrowed her brows, if Lin Chang Lu was this slow with her evil schemes, then how could she be so good in trapping others? Her scheme didn't suit her rash personality. It was as if the person who created her scheme was a different person.
"Good Job, Xiao Yun! Lin Chang Lu is becoming very brazen these days, well although she had always been such a person, her twisted personality was worse these days." Xiao Yun inclined her head at her statement. "What happened?"
"She tried to set your model to a scandal, didn't she? Do you know that after the incident she sent an announcement everywhere and pushed all the blames to Director Mo."
"That just sounds like her." Xiao Yun whispered and had Han Mi Er agreeing to her.
"Miss," The old man called her attention. "As the bracelet and necklace you've brought earlier was designed in a little special way then the others, we can add any carvings over the jade. Do you want to take the offer?"
Carving? "That sounds great, could I choose the carvings in English characters?" Asked Xiao Yun, thinking that a Chinese character writing would be hard.
"No, Chinese characters is also available." The Old man offered again and took a small note across the side of the desk. Xiao Yun paused a little tapping her fingers in ponder to what she should write for the bracelet. Sentences? Wishes? Weighing her choices, she took the paper and wrote. 'Eternal love Wang Yan Zhi and Wang Yongyi.' This should interpret the meaning of the flowers well, she thought. "This." She pushed the paper and the old man squinted his eyes a little over the writing. "What about the other item, Miss?"
"The other item?" Xiao Yun glanced at the full moon ring pendant. Her eyelashes grew a little hazy and Wang Li Lei's image hovered to the reflection of her eyes. Taking her pen, she wrote a few characters and gave the note again to the old man. "How long would it take, sir?"
"About twenty minutes, Miss."
"Then, we should go around and take a look at other shops, Xiao Yun!" Han Mi Er excitedly pulled her hand, wanting to spend some times in shopping with her soon to be sister in law.
"Okay!" Xiao Yun noticed Han Xi Guang walking toward them and both turned their faces to the tall man. "What's wrong?"
"Little dumpling is making a trouble again at home. I have to go home now." A knit was weaves over his brows. "Don't be too harsh at scolding little dumpling, alright?" Han Mi Her returned.
"Have I've ever scolded him?" He asked but didn't wait for her words. "I'll go now, I'll call Mr. Sui yo fetch you back home." She nodded and the two saw him left the place.
"Who is little dumpling, Ms. Han?" Xiao Yun curiously questioned.
"Xi Guang's son." Han Mi Er replied, her eyes looked a little solemn for some reason. Although Xiao Yun didn't want to prey to other's affair, she wondered a little how old his son was as Han Xi Guang was only five years older than her. "Also you don't have to call me formally, you could call me just by my name." Han Mi Er trailed, pulling a little smile she added. "You could also call me Jie-Jie if you want." Xiao Yun couldn't hold her smile from blooming which was made due to how she noticed the little shyness appearing on Han Mi Er. "Okay Jie-jie. Where should we go now?"
"Oh, that's right, I recalled there's a chocolatier shop near here If I'm not wrong it's just around the corner of this floor. Do you like chocolate, Xiao Yun?" Xiao Yun Held a twinkling gaze on her inky eyes. "Of course! Let's go there, Jie-jie." The two women exited the place, slowly forming their relationship closer from the talk that had on their way to the shops. Han Mi Er was good to create a seamless conversation and it didn't took long for them to speak many range of discussions at once. Beginning from the clothes they saw outside the shops to the interior designs of the shopping mall itself. Perhaps if she had an elder sister, this would be how she enjoyed most of her time, Xiao Yun thought and liked the idea of having Han Mi Er as her elder sister.
After a little trips over to many different shops, the two finally entered the chocolate shops. Feeling a little like a child, Xiao Yun couldn't stop herself from admiring and tasting the different kinds of chocolate the shop had to offer. Trying some nuts dark chocolate, Xiao Yun cupped her cheeks, screaming "Yummy!" Internally and picked some to pass it toward Han Mi Er. Seeing Han Mi Er taking a bite and lifted her face brightly, she asked. "This one is good isn't it?" She received a long cheered hum from Han Mi Er. "This one is really a delicacy! Sir, can you pack this one too?" The employee had joy on his face, pulling the brightest smile he had as the customers kept on buying all the chocolates from their stores.
Traveling at the corner of the shop, Xiao Yun noticed a rabbit shaped chocolates and took the ones which was for a tester, she brought it to her lips. The sweetness of the chocolate smoothly slid to her tongues bringing no bitter aftertaste with a rather fresh taste. Although it was sweet, it was also not too sweet for a person who dislike sweetness. Taking the chocolate, Xiao Yun thought of how it suits Wang Li Lei's taste buds and called the employee of the shop to pack her a box of the chocolate.
