Ling Tianya and Lina were shopping in the mall.
Two beautiful women like Ling Tianya and Lina were undoubtfully followed by many eyes as they shopped.
Big One and Little One both followed Ling Tianya closely, wary and alert. Their eyes ran over the mall like hawks hunting for their prey. As a result, the crowd kept a good distance from Ling Tianya.
Lina turned back and took a good look at Big One and Little One. “Have these two have always followed you like this?” she asked.
Ling Tianya smiled and nodded. “My husband is quite worried about my safety, so he arranged for these two to keep an eye on me 24/7 to ensure I am safe and sound.”
Lina pressed her lips together and chuckled. She then teased Ling Tianya. “Such sweet burdens.”
“Yes,” Ling Tianya responded.
“I have not shopped like we have today in like forever,” Lina said in a melancholy voice. “I am always surrounded by men. Every single one of them is either a member of staff or an assistant. I have been buried with company business for all these years, and I do not have many friends to hang out or go shopping with.”
Lina looked at Ling Tianya and said, “Thanks to you, Mrs. Ling, I have been able to enjoy shopping freely today without worrying about anything else.”
Lina was planning to talk to Ling Tianya and see if she could get some information about Ruan Zeyan out of her. However, Ling Tianya was much trickier than Lina expected, and she was a handful. She was unlike Lina had imagined. Lina had asked many leading questions but had been unable to get any useful information out of Ling Tianya.
So, Lina decided not to probe any further, but to enjoy shopping with Ling Tianya.
“There’s no need to call me Mrs. Ling. Tianya is fine.” Ling Tianya also relaxed once she realized that Lina had decided not to test her anymore.
“Sure!” Lina smiled and pointed to an outlet of a luxury brand. “Tianya, let’s have a look in that store.”
“Sure.”
Ling Tianya nodded and smiled. She then took Lina’s arm casually without even noticing what she was doing. The moment their arms touched, Lina froze a little and a warm feeling rose from within her.
Seen Lina was frozen, Ling Tianya looked down at her arm which was linked around Lina’s. She thought Lina must not be comfortable with her taking her arm. Ling Tianya went to let go of Lina’s arm, but Lina held Ling Tianya’s arm even tighter and stopped her from letting go. Lina then smiled at Ling Tianya and said, “Let’s go inside.”
The two of them walked into the luxury brand outlet arm-in-arm.
The sales staff in such shops knew how to read people and the room. They could tell from the clothes and looks of customers what position and status they enjoyed.
As Ling Tianya and Lina stepped into the store, the sales staff immediately knew they were no average customers. They all put their brightest smiles on and stood straight to greet them.
“Welcome to our store. What are you looking for today?” the sales staff asked politely.
“We are just browsing,” Lina said calmly, with her eyes on the merchandise on the shelf.
If an average customer walked in and said they were just browsing today, the sales staff would take their word for it and let them browse as they wished, as those customers would probably not make any purchases.
However, the browsing of these two standing in front of them was no simple browsing. They might make purchases worth thousands or even millions with just a snap of their fingers. Therefore, the sales staff did not leave them alone but followed Ling Tianya and Lina politely, and offered information about merchandise in the store from time to time.
Lina’s eyes fell onto a bag. She turned around and looked at Ling Tianya in hesitation. “Tianya, which of these colors suits me better?”
Before Ling Tianya could answer, the sales staff pointed to the one with a higher price and said, “I think this one matches your grace better.”
