Chapter 132: Chapter 132 1 Want His Money

Translator: 549690339

Xu Chaomu used a multitude of clothes to shield herself as she carefully moved toward the entrance of the shopping center.

She knew Shen Chi had sharp eyes and might spot her, so she was exceptionally cautious in her movements.

Step by step, using her backpack for cover, she never stopped as she sneakily slipped out of the mall.

Shen Chi, who was currently advising Bai Man, caught a glimpse of a petite figure bending over from the corner of his eye. A smile instantly curled up at the corners of his mouth, feeling that buying a ring, which had seemed rather dull just moments before, had suddenly become interesting.

Why wasn’t she properly staying in the classroom in broad daylight, but instead running to the shopping center?

She really was asking for a spanking!

Xu Chaomu made it to the entrance of the shopping center, panting and patting her chest, relieved that she hadn’t been detected. Gathering her courage, she sneakily peeked back into the mall.

Shen Chi was still selecting rings with Bai Man.

It was good that he hadn’t seen her; after all, they had been so close to discovery.

With that kind of luck, she might as well buy a lottery ticket.

She hummed a tune contentedly on her way back to school while the five bottles of essential oil “clink-clanked” in her backpack, accompanying her melody.

There was no evening self-study today, so Xu Chaomu returned home early. She was thinking about when to give Shen Chi his gift…

As she was sitting in the garden, holding the bottle and lost in thought, Liu Rumei approached.

Liu Rumei immediately noticed the essential oil bottle in Xu Chaomu’s hand and said with a smile, “Chaomu, have you finished the breast enhancement oil from last time?”

Xu Chaomu quickly drew the bottle toward herself, responding indifferently,

“What breast enhancement oil? I don’t remember.’

“Let me have a look.” Liu Rumei had a forward manner, casually snatching a bottle of essential oil from Xu Chaomu to examine closely.

“Oh, you’ve switched to ylang-ylang this time?”

Liu Rumei had lived for many years, and she understood far more than Xu Chaomu did.

Ylang ylang essential oil is an aphrodisiac.

What is this girl thinking about regarding Shen Chi?

However, it was perfect; it couldn’t get any better than cooking the raw rice into ready-to-eat rice.

After her last conversation with Shen Shihan, Liu Rumei corrected a mistake.

Previously, she had treated Xu Chaomu as an enemy, but now, she had to stand with Xu Chaomu.

Maybe one day, if Xu Chaomu really married Shen Chi, then it wouldn’t be too late to deal with her.

“Why are you taking other people’s things so casually?” Xu Chaomu, displeased, snatched it back.

“What are you buying this essential oil for?” Liu Rumei asked again, with a smile on her face.

“I do whatever I want to do, it’s none of your business,” Xu Chaomu turned away, dismissive.

“I can’t control you, indeed. Even if you smashed all the valuables of the Shen Family, no one would dare to question you,” Liu Rumei said with a laugh.

Putting on airs was something she was good at.

But she was also speaking the truth. Other people would have to kneel for days for breaking an ordinary bowl, but Xu Chaomu could break an ancient Qing Dynasty vase without anyone daring to blame her.

Xu Chaomu didn’t want to talk to her. Last time with the necklace incident, Liu Rumei had set her up, and now she had come to speak to her on her own initiative.

Xu Chaomu had a clear sense of love and hate, and as a young girl who couldn’t hide her emotions, she preferred to wear her feelings on her face. Disliking Liu Rumei, she also couldn’t learn to force a smile.

Thus, she stood up with the bottle in hand.

“Don’t go, I actually have a few words to tell you, though I’m not sure if you’re willing to listen. It’s about your fourth brother,” Liu Rumei said, remaining seated, not annoyed.

The setting sun cast its glow, slanting in the west. The orange light turned the white clouds into the peel of an orange, little by little, creating countless shapes and forms.

This light, falling on Liu Rumei, seemed to strip away much of her harshness.

Xu Chaomu glanced at her, just as light beamed through the gaps in the leaves, illuminating Liu Rumei’s eyes.

For a moment, Xu Chaomu was under the illusion that Liu Rumei’s eyes resembled those of her mother.

“Go ahead, I’ll listen,” Xu Chaomu stopped in her tracks.

“Your fourth brother is getting engaged, does it make you feel reluctant to let him go?”

“Yes, my third brother and fourth brother have always been good to me; of course, I would be reluctant if they got engaged. Actually, Miss Liu, I would be sad if you got engaged too.”

“You! No respect for your elders!” Liu Rumei was at a loss for words for a moment.

But thinking about it, there was no point in getting angry with Xu Chaomu, so Liu Rumei said, “Do you know what Bai Man’s biggest advantage is? Or rather, do you know what your fourth brother likes about Bai Man?”

“I don’t know,” Xu Chaomu replied, annoyed.

She knew what it was—it was about having large breasts.

Men all like women who can’t be easily grasped with one hand, especially someone like Shen Chi, the lecher.

“The bystander is clear-headed, while the player is blind. Let me tell you. Bai Man is sensible and gentle, never causing trouble for your fourth brother, and even actively helping to solve some of his worries. What man wouldn’t like such a woman?” Liu Rumei said.

In fact, Xu Chaomu understood.

Bai Man was perfect, like a flawless piece of white jade with no blemishes to be found.

Thinking about it, she felt that if she were a man, she would marry Bai Man too.

Nonetheless, she still replied with a smile, “Yes, indeed, fourth brother is lucky to marry Miss Bai. Someone even wants someone like him. The heavens really are blind.”

Liu Rumei had thought Xu Chaomu would be sad, only to hear her speak like this.

“You want him too, don’t you?” Liu Rumei raised an eyebrow. She couldn’t be tricked by Xu Chaomu’s little schemes.

“I want his money!” Xu Chaomu said earnestly.

“Don’t be foolish, having him means having his money, doesn’t it? Your fourth brother isn’t even married to Bai Man yet, and you’re already willing to hand him over to someone else?”

“What do you mean ‘hand over’? I’m not interested in him, just an old man.”

“You’re just a sore loser,” Liu Rumei laughed and took the essential oil from Xu Chaomu’s hands, “I have something good. Add a few drops to this essential oil and put it in the bathroom to evaporate with the steam, and it will have an effect beyond your imagination.”

“Why are you telling me this? If you like it, I’ll give you a bottle. I’m not stingy,” Xu Chaomu replied.

After speaking, Xu Chaomu handed her a bottle and then left.

When she returned to her room to do homework, the sun had not yet set. The days were getting longer and spring was growing more intense.

She lined up the four bottles of essential oil on the table and tapped them with a pencil.

Ding ding dong dong, ding ding dong dong… The sound was crisp and pleasant.

While she was engrossed in her homework, she heard noises from outside the villa.

It turned out Shen Chi and Bai Man had returned.

Upon their arrival, many servants came to greet them, with a grandeur that resembled an emperor returning to the palace.

“Psh,” Xu Chaomu scoffed.

Just yesterday, he had yelled at her and even told her to vacate her room for Miss Bai. She really did hate to leave, as living next to him felt so nice.

It was as if she could reach out and touch him.

Regrettably, he wouldn’t feel the same way.

To avoid having to share dinner at the table with them, Xu Chaomu went downstairs before the meal was ready, purposefully telling the butler she was hungry…

Since the butler couldn’t let her starve, he made several dishes for her..
