CHAPTER 93: CHAPTER 93: METHODS

After all, Jiang Wan was well aware deep down.

The relationship between her and Zhou Kuangyu was never really clear.

Right now, she had undeniably latched onto Zhou Kuangyu’s big ship, but her position was not something she could show in the light.

Later, if Zhou Kuangyu got bored and wanted to ditch her, she wouldn’t have gained anything, and wouldn’t that be a huge loss?

If by then she got nothing, wouldn’t it be like drawing water with a bamboo basket, all in vain?

That’s why Jiang Wan felt she couldn’t suffer in silence.

Although during the time she spent with Zhou Kuangyu, he had spent quite a bit of money on her: clothes, hairpins, and bags that girls love.

So, when treating her, Zhou Kuangyu was indeed generous.

However, these clothes and such would eventually become outdated one day.

They couldn’t accompany her for a lifetime.

So these things, while pleasing to girls.

For someone realistic like Jiang Wan, she preferred something more tangible.

Therefore, compared to these pretty clothes, Jiang Wan preferred valuable jewelry, like gold.

Indeed, Jiang Wan was greedy for money, but she couldn’t just openly ask Zhou Kuangyu for it.

That would surely annoy Zhou Kuangyu.

If Zhou Kuangyu thought Jiang Wan was a gold digger, wouldn’t he kick her out early?

Jiang Wan worried about this happening.

So she had to resort to hinting and indirectly complaining to Zhou Kuangyu about her hardships to gain his sympathy.

Yesterday, it was because of a few words from Jiang Wan that Zhou Kuangyu began to sympathize with her.

And thus agreed to buy Jiang Wan a big gold bracelet.

Initially, before Jiang Wan’s explanation, Zhou Kuangyu thought she was just greedy for money.

It had only been a few days together, and she already wanted him to buy her gold.

Perhaps afraid she’d get dumped, she wanted to quickly get some money from him, trying to make him spend on her.

So yesterday, when Jiang Wan led Zhou Kuangyu to the entrance of the gold shop, his expression changed immediately.

Afterwards, he thought he misjudged, feeling Jiang Wan was no different from other women he had met before; all were gold diggers.

But until he heard Jiang Wan’s explanations, Zhou Kuangyu instantly felt he had been distrustful.

Thinking it over, Jiang Wan, a girl from a poor family, had managed to improve herself and get into a decent university, so she must have worked hard.

Nowadays, girls with such qualities were rare.

So whenever facing Jiang Wan, Zhou Kuangyu had a bit of sympathy.

Besides, yesterday, while shopping at the mall, he had already promised Jiang Wan to buy her a big gold bracelet.

So even though Jiang Wan seemed overly eager today, Zhou Kuangyu naturally followed her to the mall.

After all, he had already promised Jiang Wan and couldn’t go back on his word.

Just a gold bracelet, Zhou Kuangyu thought, he wasn’t stingy, and a bracelet didn’t cost much. Sitting in the office for a while would make up the money.

Jiang Wan, on her side, feared this golden opportunity would slip away.

After thinking it over at home last night, Jiang Wan decided it was better to have Zhou Kuangyu buy the gold bracelet sooner for her peace of mind.

To avoid complications later.

Jiang Wan knew she was being impatient; Zhou Kuangyu had agreed, and whether it was today or tomorrow, she’d eventually wear the bracelet.

Her eagerness was a bit too much.

If Zhou Kuangyu realized her intentions, explaining herself would become more complicated.

But Jiang Wan couldn’t wait.

She just wanted to get the bracelet into her hands as soon as possible, so today, as soon as they met, Jiang Wan directly expressed to Zhou Kuangyu to take her to the gold shop to buy the bracelet.

In truth, Jiang Wan felt quite anxious, even though Zhou Kuangyu had promised to buy her the bracelet.

But remembering yesterday, when she took him to the gold shop entrance, Zhou Kuangyu’s dark expression showed his reluctance.

But fortunately, today, when Jiang Wan brought Zhou Kuangyu to the gold shop entrance, he didn’t have a significant reaction.

Instead, with a calm expression, he followed her into the gold shop.

Today, the one serving them was the same salesperson as yesterday.

Upon hearing the noise from the entrance, the salesperson quickly looked up, smiling towards the incoming guests.

To her surprise, seeing Jiang Wan and Zhou Kuangyu again, the salesperson’s face stiffened. She didn’t expect Jiang Wan to be so capable, bringing this man back to the shop with just a day’s interval.

Yesterday, she’d stood by while they discussed, naturally hearing Zhou Kuangyu promise to buy a bracelet for Jiang Wan.

Looking at Zhou Kuangyu, the salesperson’s gaze clearly showed sympathy.

She thought, this man is really a gullible fool; the woman was clearly after his money.

But then again, she thought these two probably weren’t good people; one’s having an affair, the other’s willingly being the other woman, and together they’re surely the same kind of people.

However, the woman had some skills; when mentioning the gold bracelet yesterday, she was there the whole time, observing the man’s reaction.

When the man heard the woman wanted a gold bracelet, his face turned unusually gloomy.

But the woman had some skills.

After her few short sentences yesterday, likely lies she made up, the man’s heart softened, and he agreed to buy her a gold bracelet.

She thought she’d have to wait a few more days, but just a day later, they were back to buy the bracelet.

The salesperson’s eyes glittered, thinking this unfamiliar man seemed wealthy.

Regardless of their character or if they’re having an affair, her performance for the month was undoubtedly going up significantly.
