Chapter 21: Indignant

  After dinner, the two of them didn't immediately head back. After all, it was their first time having free time to stroll around the city center, and they were together with Wang Qingya.

  Wang Qingya didn't refuse either, after all, shopping was a woman's nature, and Wang Qingya was no exception.

  However, Wang Qingya's family conditions were not very good and she couldn't afford to buy whatever she saw like other girls, so she rarely went window shopping.

  The two arrived at Qingjing City's largest commercial building, and Ye Ming parked the car in a nearby parking lot, causing another stir.

  What made Ye Ming smile bitterly was that with his hearing, he could clearly hear what the onlookers were discussing. They said Wang Qingya looked beautiful and matched well with the car, but he himself looked ordinary and it was a waste to drive such a good car.

  Qingya is pretty, but I'm not ugly either! No taste at all! Ye Ming muttered to himself.

  Don't mind them, Ye Ming smiled and got off the car, walking into the building with Wang Qingya.

  Guangzhou Trade Building, the largest commodity market in Qingjing City, where you can find everything you need to eat, wear, use and play.

  The entire building is 36 floors high, although there are elevators, but because each floor has countless storefronts, people who come here to shop, especially young men and women, rarely take the elevator.

  Men who come here to accompany women shopping will feel that, usually, going shopping is simply like walking in heaven, because here, they may have to carry things and walk through the 36 floors.

  The entire building is made up of glass-like steel transparent bricks, each floor has countless small air conditioners, and there are many plastic chairs placed around, when you're tired from walking, you can sit down here for a rest.

  Although it was Friday, there were still many people in the entire building. After Ye Ming and Wang Qingya walked in, Wang Qingya asked: "Do you want to buy something?"

  "What do you think?" Ye Ming smiled at her.

  "How did I know it was you who bought things, and not me?" Wang Qingya muttered.

  Ye Ming took a look at Wang Qingya's clothes and saw that although they were clean, they had faded slightly due to being worn for too long.

  "Then let's go take a look at the clothing store on the 6th floor!" Ye Ming said.

  "Sixth floor?"

  Wang Qingya pursed her lips, the signboards outside the Guangzhou Trade Building clearly indicated that from the 1st to the 6th floor were all selling clothes, but the prices on the 6th floor were the highest, all of which were top-notch brand-name clothing.

  But then Wang Qingya reacted and thought that Ye Ming was so rich, spending two or three hundred thousand on a meal, it didn't matter if he bought clothes for that amount.

  The two walked towards the elevator, Wang Qingya looked at Ye Ming and suddenly said: "Ye Ming, you are so rich and have such good grades, why don't you go abroad to study?"

  Pressing the button for the 6th floor in one of the elevators, Ye Ming walked into the elevator and smiled: "Why do you want to go abroad to study?"

  Wang Qingya was stunned for a moment, then muttered: "You're right, you have so much money, whether or not you study doesn't matter."

  At this time, Ye Ming didn't care about studying or not, so he skipped class directly, and took Wang Qingya with him. Because for Wang Qingya, whether she studied or not, it was already irrelevant.

  There were only two people in the elevator, and due to the slightly cramped space, they stood extremely close together. For a moment, both of them remained silent, but the air was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.

  Wang Qingya also seemed to feel the awkward atmosphere, her small white hands clenched tightly, her cheeks flushed red, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at Ye Ming.

  As for Wang Qingya, Ye Ming didn't have any desires. After ten years, what he wanted to do for this girl was to make amends, not possess her.

  In this atmosphere, the 6th floor finally arrived, and Wang Qingya's face quickly ran out, looking at her hurried figure, Ye Ming shook his head with a smile, and also followed her out.

  6th floor, all are top brand clothing, Anima, Lin Yue, Ming Guan, Yi Xue and other avant-garde noble clothing, everything is available here.

  It is said that the rent for a storefront on the 6th floor alone has reached an astonishing 400,000 yuan per year. Despite this, countless merchants still sell clothing here, which shows just how large the profit margins are.

  The owners of these clothing stores on the 6th floor, due to years of exercise, have a piercing gaze. Whether or not someone has money to buy clothes, they can tell at a glance.

  When Ye Ming and Wang Qingya walked out, some shopkeepers closest to Area A were stunned, surprised by Wang Qingya's beauty.

  However, when they saw Wang Qingya's outfit and Ye Ming's ordinary appearance beside her, they all curled their lips in disdain, and even lacked the interest to greet them.

  The clothes on the 6th floor are expensive, but you don't have to buy them. It's precisely because of this that some people can't afford them, yet they still come up just to take a look. This kind of customer makes these shop owners lose their patience and can't even be bothered to try to sell anything.

  "Let's go take a look at District B," said Ye Ming.

  "What's the point of going to District B, which is all women's clothing?" Wang Qingya had some guesses in her heart, but still asked intentionally.

  "It's because they're all girls' clothes that we're going to B district." Ye Ming dragged Wang Qingya towards B district without hesitation.

  District B is on the left side of District A, with a passageway in between that is lined with wedding dress photography studios. The two quickly arrived at District B and what they saw first, apart from all sorts of clothes, were shop owners who looked like corpses.

  When they saw Ye Ming and Wang Qingya, the store owners just took a glance and continued to do their own thing, some playing computer games, others playing with their phones, as if they hadn't seen anything.

  Ye Ming furrowed his brow and turned to Wang Qingya with a smile: "Take a look, like any clothes, just put them on and try them out."

  Wang Qingya pursed her lips, looking somewhat embarrassed at the prices of these clothes, and said in a low voice: "Ye Ming, these clothes are too expensive. Let's go somewhere else to take a look?"

  "It doesn't matter, just watch it here." Ye Ming smiled slightly. He wasn't short of money now, so why not spend it? What he wanted was for Wang Qingya to have the most beautiful life.

  "Oh."

  Wang Qingya muttered to herself, but just walked forward with her head down, without even looking back. The prices of these clothes could feed their family of five for half a year.

  Helpless, Ye Ming could only pull Wang Qingya into a clothing store and point to the pale green long dress with a Wei Zhuang embroidery on the chest, saying: "What do you think of this one?"

  Wang Qingya didn't plan to come in, but Ye Ming unexpectedly pulled her in. She raised her shining eyes and glanced at the clothes Ye Ming was talking about, saying softly: "Not bad."

  Ye Ming clearly saw that when Wang Qingya saw the clothes, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes. She smiled and said, "Then try it on."

  Just then, the shop owner, who had been lying on the recliner like a dead man, spoke up, "If you're not going to buy it, don't try it. If you get it dirty, washing it once will cost one or two hundred."

  Ye Ming furrowed his brow, "What did you just say?"

  The stout middle-aged female shop owner stood up and looked at Ye Ming and Wang Qingya, rolling her eyes and saying: "I said no buying, so don't try it."

  "You... how did you know we weren't going to buy?" Wang Qingya also got angry, her small face flushing red as she said.

  "Hmph, look at the clothes you're wearing, how many years old are they? If you don't have money, then don't come here and waste my time. I'm most annoyed with people like you who pretend to be rich when they're actually poor." The middle-aged female shop owner stared at Wang Qingya and said bluntly.

  "You!"

  Wang Qingya was after all a girl and just a student, for a moment, she really couldn't organize any words to refute.

  "Be careful when doing business, don't be blinded by appearances." Ye Ming said suddenly.

  "Hmph, I've been here for almost ten years and still haven't seen anything out of the ordinary."

  The female shop owner waved her hand disdainfully, "Hurry up and leave, don't delay me from doing business here."

  As she spoke, she pushed Wang Qingya with her hand, causing her to stumble and almost fall to the ground.

  Some shop owners around also heard the noise here, and they all came over to watch the excitement with a sense of schadenfreude. As fellow shop owners, they had a kind of camaraderie in their misfortune.

  Ye Ming took a deep breath and supported Wang Qingya, whose whole body was shaking with anger. He reached into his right pocket and pulled out his mobile phone, dialing a number and waiting for the other party to answer.

  "Is this Guang Mao Tower business department? Please come to 6th floor B district store 32."
