"What do you mean, only for his wife? As if anyone would want to use his money!" Zhu Ling'er said in a huff, packing a large number of items in the shop. Anything she found pleasing, regardless of its utility, she had the sales assistant bag up.
The sales assistant had never seen such a domineering customer. The corners of his mouth split into a grin that reached his ears. He busily bustled around Zhu Ling'er, helping her pack.
When Zhu Ling'er emerged from the shop, as expected, she was laden with bags. Zhou Yu's head ached! What had he done to deserve such a troublesome woman...
"I can't carry any more, you take it," Zhou Yu said, very reluctantly.
Zhu Ling'er paid him no mind and directly hung the shopping bags around Zhou Yu's neck. Seeing Zhou Yu adorned with shopping bags like a Christmas tree, Zhu Ling'er couldn't help but laugh: "Hahaha, you look great, I have to take a picture of you!"
Su Yuyan, standing by, also chuckled. Zhou Yu's current appearance was truly comical, as if he were drowning in shopping bags!
*Click—*
Zhu Ling'er took a photo and then, like a cat that had stolen fish, said, "I've bought enough, shall we go back?"
Su Yuyan quickly nodded. Earlier during their shopping, Zhou Yu had already given his black card to Su Yuyan, telling her not to hold back and to buy whatever she liked. However, Su Yuyan was accustomed to being frugal and didn't have Zhu Ling'er's urge for compensatory spending, so she had only bought a few items. She was already tired of shopping! As for Zhou Yu, weighed down with shopping bags, there was no need to even mention it.
The three of them walked towards the parking lot. Along the way, Zhu Ling'er chattered and laughed, as if she hadn't been the one sulking earlier. It made Zhou Yu want to sigh. A woman's mood is as changeable as the weather in June! It changes in an instant!
Just as the three were nearing the parking lot, several girls were walking together not far away. Seeing Zhou Yu carrying numerous bags with more hanging from his neck, they couldn't help but laugh. One of the girls deliberately said loudly to her companion, "Look, that person is like a dog." Her companion also smiled and said, "Isn't he? A lapdog, hahaha!"
Zhou Yu knew they were talking about him, but he didn't feel angry. A few words wouldn't cost him anything. However, Zhu Ling'er and Su Yuyan's faces turned cold. Zhou Yu was their man, after all. Calling their man a lapdog? Unbearable!
Su Yuyan, usually reserved, strode up to the group of girls and angrily asked, "Who are you calling a lapdog?"
The girl was taken aback, not expecting this. She then replied unnaturally, "Just that guy." Su Yuyan's face turned even redder with anger! She demanded, "On what grounds do you call him a lapdog? You must apologize!"
The girls immediately took offense. One of them faced Su Yuyan and said angrily, "We were just saying it casually, do you have to be so serious? Besides, carrying bags for women, what else would you call it but a lapdog!"
Su Yuyan was enraged by her righteous indignation, trembling all over! However, for a long time, Su Yuyan had rarely argued with people, and her vocabulary wasn't sufficient. She was so angry she didn't know what to say, only continuing to seethe.
Seeing this, Zhu Ling'er immediately stepped forward. She nodded slightly and condescendingly said to the girls, "Apologize!"
"What's wrong with you two?" the girl cursed. However, Zhu Ling'er was no pushover like Su Yuyan. She would retort if anyone said anything to her. Now, not only was her man insulted, but she was also called crazy? Zhu Ling'er wouldn't stand for it! She raised her hand and slapped the girl across the face.
*Slap—*
A crisp sound echoed. The girl who had called Zhou Yu a lapdog's eyes widened. She covered her cheek, looking at Zhu Ling'er in disbelief. "You hit someone?"
Hearing this, Zhu Ling'er chuckled. She looked at the girl with disdain and said indifferently, "So what if I hit you?" "Remember, this is my man, and he's not the same species as your 'lapdog.' If I hear such words again, don't blame me for tearing your mouth apart!" Zhu Ling'er's imposing aura completely crushed the girls before her. They could only glare furiously at Zhu Ling'er, their anger suppressed. If looks could kill, Zhu Ling'er would have been dismembered by now!
"You... you dare not leave!" The girl who called Zhou Yu a lapdog trembled with anger and pulled out her phone. It seemed she was going to call someone. Zhu Ling'er was unfazed. She stood with her arms crossed, saying cheerfully, "You better call everyone at once, so I don't have to deal with them one by one and waste my time!"
Hearing Zhu Ling'er's words, the girl became even angrier, but she could do nothing about Zhu Ling'er. Soon, her phone was connected. She heard herself say into the phone, "Daddy, I've been beaten up outside!" "She even threatened to tear my mouth apart!"
The person on the other end said something, and after listening, the girl's anger turned into a beaming smile. She then hung up the phone! "You wait, my daddy will be here soon, and you'll all regret it!" the girl said haughtily. Her companions sneered gleefully. "Qiaoqiao is from the Lin family in Yunhai City. You're in for trouble." "They probably don't even know what the Lin family is, tsk tsk, a bunch of pitiable fools." "It's their bad luck to have provoked Qiaoqiao!"
Hearing their words, Zhu Ling'er was bewildered. The Lin family in Yunhai City? It wasn't even a first-rate family, Zhu Ling'er had never heard of it. Why were they so proud? Zhu Ling'er thought, and looked at Zhou Yu for an answer. Unfortunately, Zhou Yu also had no idea what the Lin family was. So he turned his gaze to Su Yuyan.
Su Yuyan bit her lower lip and softly explained, "The Lin family is a second-rate family. Although they aren't well-known and don't have many industries, their entire family practices martial arts." This meant that even if a member of the Lin family wasn't a martial artist, they would at least be a martial arts expert. Their skills would be far superior to ordinary people! Of course, the reason Su Yuyan remembered the Lin family was their behavior. They acted like bandits! If anyone offended a member of their family, regardless of who was right or wrong, the Lin family would mobilize collectively and beat the offender until they were injured or disabled, to avenge their own!
