【011】The Aloof Him

After Wen Xiangyang finished speaking, she saw Mu Lingqian squinting his eyes, looking at her with a faint smile, "Do you want to buy me again, or take another photo?"

Upon hearing this, Wen Xiangyang took a step back, glaring angrily at the man in front of her, "I just came to give you money, and to retrieve my phone."

"Really?" Mu Lingqian walked back into the room.

Seeing that he was not keen to return her phone, she followed him, "It was wrong for me to take a photo, but you have no right to take my phone, that's illegal!"

"Clean that face of yours before you talk to me again." Mu Lingqian glanced at Wen Xiangyang's face, his eyes carrying a hint of disgust.

Wen Xiangyang frowned. What did it matter to him how she dressed?

But, in order to retrieve her mobile phone, she gritted her teeth, headed into the bathroom, and cleaned her face.

"Can you give me my phone back now?"

After cleaning her face, Wen Xiangyang was serene and warm as per her name. Mu Lingqian's face looked a bit better.

"It's just a cheap, broken phone." Mu Lingqian gave Wen Xiangyang a glance, "So, it was a gift from your boyfriend?"

Wen Xiangyang gave a light laugh, "I say, handsome, who gifted me my phone has nothing to do with you. Don't you think you, as a male escort, are meddling too much? Do you always intrude into your female clients' personal matters like this?"

Wen Xiangyang's words and tone made Mu Lingqian's face darken.

He walked quickly to the bedside table, pulled out the phone from the drawer, and threw it towards Wen Xiangyang, "You can get lost now."

Damn, how could there be such a mercurial man? Such a man could be the poster boy for Mousse? It was a blessing from their boss's past life that Mousse hadn't gone bankrupt!

Fortunately, she got her phone back, and Wen Xiangyang didn't want to stay much longer. She turned around and left Mousse, vowing never to see this man again in her life.

Wen Xiangyang did not want to see Mu Lingqian, but sometimes enemies have a way of crossing their paths.

The days leading up to the wedding between her lying ex-boyfriend and that hypocritical mistress were fast approaching. Yan Xin had introduced Wen Xiangyang to at least eight or ten men during that time, all of whom would be paraded at the wedding. However, none of them were either well-known or had a decent reputation. In other words, none were suitable.

This afternoon, she would be meeting the last one. However, the chances of him being suitable were slim.

She might not have a boyfriend, but she wasn't about to lose face either.

Wen Xiangyang got up early that day, intent on spending the morning shopping for an appropriate dress. Yan Xin had given her two million dollars, telling her to buy whatever she wanted.

Yan Xin knew Wen Xiangyang was living frugally, with hardly any money. Reluctant to accept help, she'd agreed to return the clothes and money to Yan Xin after the wedding, as if they were just being borrowed.

Yan Xin's dresses were typically priced over one million dollars, lifting a great weight from Wen Xiangyang's shoulders.

Muma Commercial Building, the largest department store in Nande City.

After walking around the department store, Wen Xiangyang settled her gaze on a wine-red dress in the window of Q&T. She not only wanted a dress that would highlight her aura and status, but also one that would suit Yan Xin.

"Could you show me this dress?"

"Miss, you have a good eye. This is our latest design this year and the dress you've chosen is an exclusive design by our top designer at Q&T. There are only five of these in the world, and we're the only store in Nande City that carries it."
