“Then I’ll go back to the bookstore. I’ve already missed work in the morning.” Qin Ran, who had been delayed for half a day, shrugged helplessly.

“Mrs. Mo doesn’t need to work.”

Qin Ran realized that the presidents loved saying this. She did not care about what he said and took out her phone from her bag and called the bookstore.

“Do you have to go to work? I’m really worried about you.” Although the bookstore was considered safe, it couldn’t be compared to the Mo Residence which had excellent security systems.

“Yes, I must go to work.” Qin Ran’s tone was firm. She had to work. It had nothing to do with how much money she earned or how long she worked. She liked the feeling of having a job that relied on hard labor to support herself. Moreover, she had a special status and had to have an ordinary job to hide her identity.

Seeing her persistence, Mo Chi wondered if it was because she had a tough life in the Qin family that she came out to work. Work was like a talisman to her. Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but feel sorry for the little lass in front of him.

“Can you take half a day off this afternoon?”

“Why?” As long as she did not resign, she could still accept taking leave.

“I’ll take you to buy something.” Seeing that she only carried a backpack when she came, Mo Chi wanted to take her to the shopping mall yesterday, but he was afraid that she had too many things to do yesterday and would tire this little lass out.

“Buy what?”

“Buy some of your daily necessities.” As Mo Chi spoke, he suddenly frowned. “If you go shopping at the mall, will you be too tired? If not, I’ll get Butler Zhang to bring home all the best products before you choose.”

Qin Ran was so shocked that she couldn’t close her mouth.?Could this be the life of the wealthy wives??When she thought about how she would be surrounded and served every day in the future, Qin Ran couldn’t help but shiver. This wasn’t the ordinary life that she wanted.

“Qin Ran, what do you think?” Mo Chi saw that she was in a daze.

“I think we’d better go shopping.”

As a result, the staff working at Xuanchuan Wanda Mall that day were whispering about the handsome, rich man and his beautiful wife.

After Mo Chi blurted out the words “get one for each color” again, Qin Ran knew that this kind of discussion would only end after three to five days.

“Buying more will be too much,” Qin Ran pulled Mo Chi, who wanted to enter the next store, and said.

“You must be tired.” Mo Chi regretted not preparing the items at home for her to choose from.

“Yeah. So, let’s go back.” As long as Qin Ran didn’t get the attention of others and was discussed here, everything would be fine.

“Rest here for a while. I’ll go to the front and buy you something.”

As she watched Mo Chi leave, Qin Ran immediately wanted to speak up for the girls. Who said that only girls were shopping maniacs? Boys were really crazy when it came to shopping.

There was no point in sitting there, so Qin Ran stood up and specially instructed Butler Zhang not to follow her. She then returned to the store where she had been strolling earlier. However, she never expected to meet Qin Xue and her lackey, Zhang Lan.

“Xiao Xue, isn’t this your disgraceful sister?” Zhang Lan’s mean face was a perfect match for the nasty words coming out of her mouth.

“Xiao Lan, don’t say that. My sister is pregnant, so she can’t be angry.” Using the gentlest tone to stab the most vicious knife, Qin Xue had practiced this technique to perfection.

“Pregnant before marriage?” The disdain in her eyes became more obvious. Zhang Lan continued, “Don’t you people from the countryside like this?”

Qin Ran did not want to bother with these two people at all. When she saw that the shop assistant wanted to say something fair, she was also stopped by her gaze.

“Sis, when are you going to bring your boyfriend home to let Dad and Mom take a look? We’ll all be happy for you when you find a good home in the future.” Qin Xue really wanted to meet this man and see who was so kind as to knock up Qin Ran, completely angering her parents.

“My boyfriend is not good. He’s old and ugly. He doesn’t catch your eye.” After saying this, Qin Ran walked out of the store. In this special period, she already wanted to throw up. When she saw these two people, she felt even more disgusted.

“Shop assistant, did my sister just come with her boyfriend?” Qin Xue pretended to be concerned about her sister. “My sister is no longer in contact with her family. We are all very worried about her, afraid that she would be cheated on, so I want to ask her how her boyfriend looks. Is he old? Does he look like he is rich?”
