Seeing Jiang Qin’s conflicted expression, the shop assistant asked kindly, “Madam, do you want to choose for yourself or for your daughter?”

Jiang Qin instinctively said, “For my daughter.”

The shop assistant asked, “What’s your daughter’s weight and how tall is she?”

Jiang Qin was stunned for a moment. Then, she recalled carefully that she had not measured her daughter’s height and weight for a long time. She did not know them.

She was really an incompetent mother.

She roughly estimated Si Fan’s height and weight and said ambiguously, “She’s about 1.7 meters tall and thin, about 45 kilograms.”

The shop assistant nodded. “I see. Then the size M might be a little short. You can try the size L dress. Of course, you can bring it back and let your daughter try it, our shop allows exchanging.”

“Alright, bring out the L-sized dresses. I’ll pick out a few more!”

Jiang Qin thought that other people’s children would definitely wear beautiful dresses in university. They would change a dress every day. Her daughter could not lose out to other people’s children.

Her eyes couldn’t help but tear up when she thought about how her daughter was going to leave the Si Family and become independent.

Afraid that the shop assistant would see her embarrassment, she quickly turned around and gently wiped the corners of her wet eyes.

She looked up and saw a familiar figure standing two meters away.

Jiang Qin sighed in her heart. She couldn’t sleep last night and was in a daze. She even hallucinated and thought that she saw Fanfan.

She laughed at herself, then rubbed her eyes.

When she looked again, she was still standing across from her.

She was stunned. It didn’t seem like an illusion.

Si Fan, who was standing opposite her, smiled when she saw Jiang Qin’s childish actions.

She felt that Jiang Qin, as mother, was quite cute.

She deeply understood that there was a feeling called empathy.

She had taken over this body, which meant that she had taken over everything, including her thoughts, feelings, and actions. Everything affected her.

Naturally, it also included the love that the original host had for her mother.

In her previous life, she was a queen with a high position. She had a status above everyone and could have whatever she wanted.

However, she, who was so high up in the air and held so much power, did not have a single relative by her side.

It was lonely at the top. She seemed to have everything that others could not reach, but in fact, she had no one to share it with. No one around her could be trusted.

Otherwise, she would not have been framed and murdered by her trusted aides.

No one mourned her death after she died.

Si Fan fixed her eyes on Jiang Qin, whose eyes had turned red for her daughter. Her heart, which had always been cold, softened a little.

She said, “Mom, what are you doing here?”

Jiang Qin came back to her senses when she heard Si Fan’s voice. “F-Fanfan, is it really you? Mom thought I was mistaken.”

Si Fan acknowledged and walked closer. Her gaze landed on the yellow dress in Jiang Qin’s hand.

When Jiang Qin saw Si Fan staring at the dress in her hands, she quickly unfolded the dress for her to see. “I have some time to buy some clothes for you. Do you like this dress? If you like it, try it on.”

Coincidentally, the shop assistant walked over with an L-size dress.

She was stunned when she saw Si Fan standing beside Jiang Qin.

The girl’s facial features were smooth and exquisite. Every part of her body was perfect and flawless. They looked even more perfect when combined together.

Her face was porcelain-white like jade. A pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes were embedded in between her jade-like nose bridge.

The shop assistant stared at Si Fan, unable to take her eyes off her.

She was too beautiful.

Girls liked pretty girls more than boys.

Jiang Qin noticed the shop assistant’s stunned gaze and instantly felt quite proud. She pointed at Si Fan and said, “This is my daughter.”

The shop assistant immediately praised, “Madam, your daughter is really good-looking. One look and you can tell that she’s a blessed person.”

Jiang Qin was filled with emotions. “I hope so. Thank you for your blessings.”

She hoped that Si Fan would be able to live a better life after leaving the Si Family and not continue to be oppressed by the Si Family, like her, who had no control over her life.

The shop assistant continued, “Since your daughter is here, it’s even easier. Just let her try on the dress and we’ll know if it’s suitable.”

Jiang Qin nodded and took the yellow dress from the shop assistant. She looked at Si Fan expectantly.

“…” Si Fan.

Jiang Qin saw that Si Fan was not moving and asked in surprise, “Why? You don’t like this kind of dress?”

Si Fan replied, “It’s not convenient for me to wear a dress these days.”

“?” Jiang Qin was puzzled. “Why is it inconvenient?”

Didn’t university girls like to wear all kinds of dresses?

“Nothing. I don’t like wearing dresses these days.”

After Si Fan finished speaking, she swept her gaze around and finally walked to the tops’ area. She picked a few pieces of white and black shirts, then a few pieces of black pants that were slightly loose.

After choosing, she threw the clothes to the shop assistant. “I’ll take these. I don’t need to try them on.”

The shop assistant’s face was crunched up. “Young lady, you’re so beautiful and have such a good figure. It’s a pity not to wear a dress.”

Si Fan said, “Bill, please!”

The shop assistant, who did not see the beauty in the dress, sighed and reluctantly carried the clothes to the counter to settle the bill.

Jiang Qin also felt that it was a pity. She still preferred her daughter to wear a dress, which was more ladylike.

In addition, her daughter was so beautiful. She might be able to find a good husband in university. At least she would have someone to take care of her in the future. She would be more at ease.

However, on second thought, if someone really cared about their daughter, why would they care what she was wearing?

Inner beauty was the most important.

The few sets of clothes cost more than 50,000 yuan. Jiang Qin paid with her card.

She saw Si Fan taking out a card as well. She wondered if there was still 1,000 yuan left in that card. How could she afford to buy clothes that cost 50,000 yuan? As her mother, she had to pay for it.

Besides, as her mother, she should be the one to buy clothes for her daughter. How could she use her daughter’s card to pay?!

Little did she know that Si Fan had 500,000 yuan in her card.

Si Fan took out her card and saw Jiang Qin eagerly handing her card to the shop assistant.

In the end, Si Fan put the card back.

After buying a few sets of clothes, Jiang Qin planned to buy a few pairs of shoes for Si Fan, such as sneakers and casual shoes. Moreover, Si Fan was a performing arts student, so she needed high heels and dancing shoes as well.

Si Fan had no objections because it was indeed time for her to change her shoes.

Murong Xiang, who was shopping with her friends, saw a slender figure enter a ladies’ shoe boutique. She stopped in her tracks. “Eh, isn’t that…”

Madam Jiang, who was beside her, sensed her abnormality and asked, “Madam Jun, what’s wrong?”

Murong Xiang looked at the slender figure that had already disappeared from the shoe boutique and smiled faintly. She pointed at the shoe boutique. “It’s nothing. I want to buy a new pair of shoes recently. Let’s go into that shoe boutique and shop?”

Madam Jiang glanced at the shoe boutique and frowned. “Madam Jun, most shoes in that shoe boutique are only a few thousand yuan. It’s not a good brand and the materials used are extremely poor. There’s nothing to shop there. I know a good shoe boutique not far from here. It’s only a few minutes away. I’ll take you shopping there.”
