Chapter 181 - Is This Really A Coincidence?
Mother Jin met with her old friend after hanging up the phone and stayed there in the corridor to chat with her, while on the other hand, Xie Ming entered the jewelry shop as Mother Jin told her to go.
As she entered the shop which was lightened with bright lights and the attendants were standing behind the counters to show the jewelry pieces to customers.
She looked around while entering but her steps halted in the middle when she saw a familiar face.
There are not many customers, only a few people were looking at the jewelry there but anyone can tell that all people are from high society.
Xie Ming was stunned to see the person in the jewelry shop. She didn't expect to see this person here.
It was Jian Yan.
She had seen this person at the Global World when she went there for the first time.
How can she forget this face, when she was scared to her wits at that time.
She doesn't know if she should go in or not.
As she was contemplating to go in or not, Jian Yan looked towards her.
Their eyes met.
The sudden eye contact make her flustered. She didn't even know if he remembers her or not and it will be embarrassing for her to go in and say hello to him.
She thought that he must not remember her but his eyes were saying something else.
He was looking at her with his dar black eyes, without even blinking. He noticed that she was wearing magenta colored dress making her look beautiful and ethereal.
Xie Ming felt uncomfortable under his intense gaze. She wanted to get out of the shop but it's too late to do that.
…..
Jian Yan who was sitting at the couch there was playing a game on his phone. He was forced to come here to accompany his mother for shopping.
It was her birthday and she forced him to come here with her for shopping. He doesn't want to come but his mother was too good at acting than him and used her weapon of emotional blackmail and crocodile tears.
So he has to come here.
While he was playing, he raised his head when he heard the sound of a pair of heels. His expressions froze when he saw her standing at the entrance of the shop.
Even in his wild dreams he never expected to see her here. He kept staring at her to make this unbelievable situation real.
' Is this a coincidence?'
…..
A shop attendant came to Xie Ming after seeing her standing at the entrance for a few minutes.
She looked at Xie Ming from up and down and saw that though the dress and accessories she was wearing were looking simple but they are elegant and only few people can tell that they are from the popular brand STAR which is famous to make only custom made dresses and all the dresses are different and only one in this world.
The brand designer was mysterious and this brand is not known to many people in China but it is a popular brand abroad.
The dress Xie Ming wearing was rare and elegant.
At this, the eyes of the attendant glistened with light and she politely asked Xie Ming, " Miss, Please come inside. What would you like to have, tea, coffee or juice?"
The attendant was the head attendant there and apart from accessories she had a keen interest in a fashion popular abroad and she recognized the brand at one look as she loves this brand and was saving every penny just to buy one cheapest piece of this brand.
But it's cheapest piece will cost her all her savings.
When the attendant approached her so politely Xie Ming was pulled out of her daze and looked at the attendant in front of her. She shifted her attention from Jian Yan to the attendant.
She smiled back and said, " Ah. No thank you. I will just look at the few accessories."
The attendant politely welcomed her in and brought her to the side counter where all the bracelets and rings were displayed.
Other attendants and customers were looking at Xie Ming because the way the attendant was treating her was special. All the guests there were elites and holding the VIP membership of the shop.
The girl does not seem to be the Vip here but seeing the behavior of the head attendant everyone was perplexed and flustered.
Xie Ming noticed all the gazes and felt uncomfortable under their gazes.
She has no idea why everyone was behaving like this especially the attendant.
The dress she was wearing was given by Liwei to her. And she doesn't know the value of this dress and for her, it's just a normal dress.
She don't know that this dress was very rare and expensive.
She walked to the counter and was trying to ignore someone's gaze on her.
The attendant started showing the different kinds of rings and bracelets.
She couldn't focus on the jewelry in front of her and glance towards the entrance to see Mother Jin who was not in the sight.
She took a deep breath, at that moment a hand tapped on her shoulders making her startle in shock.
She turns around to see the person and was startled to see Mrs. Wu standing there.
It was not long ago when she and Liwei had lunch with her and Mr. Wu and here she met again. She smiled at her and greeted her.
Mrs. Wu looked at her and smiled, " Xie Ming, are you here for shopping? What did you buy?" she asked curiously.
" Ahh, I just came here so I was still looking at the pieces, by the way, are you done with your shopping?" she asked with a smile.
" Not yet. I came to a while ago but couldn't decide on anything and my son with whom I came with is clueless in this field. He couldn't help me to choose anything. It's good that you're here. Help me to pick something, I am so confused."
" Ah. I will try to help you buy something beautiful. Moreover, everything will look good on you." Xie Ming said politely.
" Haha. Don't compliment me so much. I might take it seriously." she said jokingly.
" I am not joking. You're so young and beautiful how can I joke about this?" Xie Ming praised her.
Mrs. Wu was beautiful and have a baby face which makes her look young for her age. Her well-maintained figure made her look a few years younger.
She laughed at Xie Ming's words and said, " Oh don't say that. Let me introduce you to my son than you will know that I am not young at all. I have to look like my age to get a beautiful daughter in law like you otherwise, no girl will marry my son saying that I look like his stepmother. Haha." she laughed saying her words.
Xie Ming awkwardly smiled at her, ' Mrs. Wu has a strange sense of humor.'
