CHAPTER 276: CHAPTER 273: TURNS OUT SHE’S A BIG-SPENDING TYCOON

Lin Wanwan replied with a smile, "There are so many clothes outside, bringing them in is such a hassle, I’d rather go out and pick them myself."

Lu Shouyue said, "The ones outside are all common stuff, Wanwan you should choose from the VIP section, the styles and craftsmanship are much better there."

"Haha, no need for that." Lin Wanwan shook her head, "I’ll just pick from outside."

Spending tens of thousands on a single piece of clothing isn’t really meaningful!

Though she makes money easily, she has to subsidize her whole family, so she can’t be too extravagant. Buying ready-made clothes for several thousand is already luxurious enough.

If it weren’t for her cousin being here, she might not even buy here.

Lin Wanwan then said to Gu Jingyu, "Little Yu, stop agonizing over which bag to choose, I’ve bought both for you, consider it my wedding gift to you. Adults don’t make choices, they get everything!"

Gu Jingyu was shocked when she heard this, "Wanwan, are you serious, did you win the lottery?"

"Of course, I’m serious. I didn’t win the lottery, but I made money writing books." Lin Wanwan casually fibbed, seeing as the income from web novels is hard for others to distinguish unless you mention it.

After all, authors who flop might only earn a few dozen, whereas those at the top of the rankings could easily earn several million, the individual gap is huge.

Seeing that Lin Wanwan wasn’t joking, Gu Jingyu hurriedly declined.

An entry-level bag costs close to twenty thousand, so two would be forty thousand, who receives such a hefty gift for a wedding? It’s even more than the dowry her fiancé’s family gave them.

But Lin Wanwan was lazy to keep going back and forth with her and directly pulled her outside into the main hall to accompany her shopping.

Seeing Lin Wanwan try on several sets consecutively and then generously let Su Yanwei make the bill and pack them, the other store clerks were both jealous and disdainful.

They all thought that Lin Wanwan was shopping lavishly only because she had someone to foot the bill and would hang it on Lu Shouyue’s tab.

But unexpectedly when it was time to pay, Lin Wanwan swiped her own phone card without even thinking about discounts; it was Lu Shouyue who actively mentioned using his platinum VIC card to get a 20% discount before swiping it.

Junior VIP and ordinary VIC cards are for personal use only and cannot be lent to others, but the platinum card is different; none of the rules apply to platinum cards, everything is flexible.

Who would have thought this girl dressed in Taobao clothes would spend money like water, not batting an eye at buying clothes worth tens of thousands, looking at how Lu Shao is with her, could it be that they’re on the same level, just that the other is more low-key?

Everyone started whispering internally, at the same time adding quite a bit of drama to Su Yanwei.

The rich lady is his cousin, and Lu Shao appointed him as a commissioner as soon as he appeared, could it be that this is a Crown Prince experiencing the grassroots?

The plot of an idol drama floated in the minds of the store clerks dreaming of high society, and their gaze towards Su Yanwei changed.

Lu Shao is too distant and cool, but Su Yanwei is someone they live with day by day.

Once Su Yanwei is set up as a rich second-generation, he becomes extremely appealing. After all, those who can come to sv as clerks, regardless of gender, have proper looks, and Su Yanwei is no exception.

Because of Lin Wanwan’s wealthy behavior, it suddenly opened up Su Yanwei’s peach blossom luck career.

The senior clerks who originally liked to make life difficult for this newcomer suddenly warmed up, and those female colleagues who were originally all eyes and only planned to marry a rich second-generation inexplicably handed him peach branches.

But that’s a story for another time, let’s not get into it now.

Having bought clothes and bags, Lin Wanwan added her cousin’s WeChat, then said goodbye and left.

Gu Jingyu was shocked all along, seeing Lin Wanwan keep buying and buying. Graduated two years, what work does Lin Wanwan do to earn so much money? Even daring to buy clothes in sv.

Is writing novels really that profitable?

Lin Wanwan certainly had no intention of enlightening Gu Jingyu.

After exiting the sv store, Lu Shouyue suggested going to watch a movie, as there were quite a few films being released recently.

Of course, Gu Jingyu didn’t want to be a third wheel for the two of them; in the end, she wouldn’t go, so Lin Wanwan didn’t go either, saying she wanted to send her home.

Seeing Lin Wanwan’s innocent manner, Gu Jingyu decided to help this Lu teacher out and proposed that she buy the tickets.

Today Lin Wanwan gave her a wedding gift, and Teacher Lu helped her, so watching a movie naturally should be her treat.

Neither Lin nor Lu objected.

Tickets were bought, popcorn and soda ready, they entered the screening room with Lin Wanwan arranged between Gu Jingyu and Lu Shouyue.

For Lin Wanwan, it was her first time watching a movie in a cinema; she used to think going to the cinema was a waste of money and didn’t have friends suitable for watching movies together.

Today she happily entered the cinema with two people she truly considered friends.

The movie was a mainstream war blockbuster featuring Xiao Junning, specially chosen by Gu Jingyu upon seeing his poster.

After all, they were classmates; seeing him meant supporting him a bit.

Back then, Xiao Junning was also Gu Jingyu’s vague crush, even though he was a grade below them, he stood out; the whole school knew him, and half the girls secretly admired him.

Gu Jingyu quietly focused on him, until just before graduation, she saw Xiao Junning slip a letter to Lin Wanwan and gave up on asking for Xiao Junning’s contact details.

Lin Wanwan had few friends, as did Gu Jingyu, which totaled to just Lin Wanwan. Men certainly weren’t as important as girlfriends; she didn’t want to quarrel with her friend over this.

Gu Jingyu watched the movie while reminiscing.

After the movie ended, Lu Shouyue suggested going for a late-night snack, but Gu Jingyu truly couldn’t accompany them anymore.

She had a very regular schedule; normally, by this time she would have washed up and gone to bed, and only because tomorrow was Sunday could she indulge a bit.

Lin Wanwan wasn’t particularly interested, so since Gu Jingyu wanted to leave, she politely declined Lu Shouyue, happily saying goodbye.

Lu Shouyue wasn’t disappointed about not sharing a late-night snack with Lin Wanwan; after all, they watched a movie together today, and he accidentally touched her little hand while picking up popcorn; he was already quite satisfied.

After a content farewell, Lin Wanwan took Gu Jingyu to the underground garage to drive.

On seeing the Porsche for the first time, Gu Jingyu was stunned: "Wanwan, you’re truly rich now! What kind of car is this? Looks expensive."

Lin Wanwan opened the car door signaling her to get in, smiling as she said, "It’s a Porsche Cayenne, the one I just bought, how does it look?"

Gu Jingyu sat in the car, tried it out, and then praised, "It’s awesome! Really admire you! Your language skills were always good growing up, writing novels suits you. By the way, what kind of book did you write? Send it to me, I’ll support you."

Lin Wanwan quickly said, "Please don’t, I’d feel embarrassed if a familiar person reads my novel, let me keep it a secret."
