Only then did Shi Xiu become aware of the strange atmosphere around them. “What’s wrong? What’s up with you all?” she asked them in confusion.

Yun Liu’s face was a little pale. Gu Wei was still unwilling to let it go and smilingly said, “Shi Xiu, I’m glad that you think of Yun Liu so much. Yun Liu tried the dress on just now, and it suited her very well. You’re really too kind; I’m sorry you spent so much money.”

The store manager couldn’t help but wonder if Madam Yun’s brain was waterlogged. It was obvious the second sister-in-law that Miss Shi was referring to wasn’t this Miss Yun Liu! How is she so self-absorbed?

Shi Xiu frowned; she was also bewildered by Gu Wei’s words. She sized Yun Liu up and asked, “You said the dress suited her?” She then shook her head and commented, “My second sister-in-law has a better figure than Yun Liu; the dress suits her more.”

She glanced at the shop assistant and chided, “Well, hop to it!” She turned her gaze back to the manager and questioned, “Are both of you new here?”

That woke the store manager and the shop assistant from their daze. Some things needn’t and shouldn’t be said. This matter had nothing to do with them; their job was to sell their goods, and they couldn’t offend their customers.

This Miss Shi had bought more than ten of their outfits with a wave of her hand. What would they do if she fought with Madam Yun, became angry, and decided not to buy any of their items?

They smiled at Shi Xiu in unison. “We’ll get right to it, Miss Shi. We’ll have everything sorted right away. Do you need anything else?”

Shi Xiu looked around before stating, “Nope, that’s everything. Hurry up and get them wrapped up and sent to my                 Sigh* What am I thinking? I can send them directly to Shi Nian’s house! I’ll call Yun Nan and ask her when she’ll be home. You have to deliver it to her on time!” The store manager quickly nodded.

Shi Xiu’s call went through, and she immediately beamed. “Yun Nan, this is your dearest sister-in-law speaking. I’m shopping, and I’ve picked out a few sets of clothes for you. They’re quite nice and will definitely suit you. You can trust my fashion sense!”

Shi Xiu smiled at the response from the other end of the call and replied,

“There’s no need for that; I have unlimited pocket money. I have Dad, my older brothers, and Grandpa funding me, hehe… Really? For real? Yun Nan, Yun Nan, quickly now, tell me the address! I’ll come over after I’ve had lunch—oh, okay, we’ll have lunch together!”

Shi Xiu hung up the phone and informed the shop’s staff with a smile, “Send the clothes to my brother’s company. He should take his wife’s things home himself.’

The shop assistant had dutifully suffered Gu Wei and Yun Liu’s bullying for nearly half the day. She clearly understood what was going on at this moment and couldn’t help but deliberately feign ignorance and ask, “Isn’t Miss Yun your second sister-in-law, Miss Shi?”

Shi Xiu was bemused. Seeing this, the shop assistant added, “Madam Yun said that Miss Yun is your second sister-in-law just now, but from what I’ve gathered, that doesn’t seem to be the case. I would like to verify this with you in order to prevent the same mistake from happening again.”

The store manager glared at the shop assistant, irritated at her for speaking out of turn. But on second thought, if they didn’t deal with this matter properly, other shop assistants who didn’t know the inside story might mess up again next time.

“My second sister-in-law is indeed Miss Yun, but not this Miss Yun!” Shi Xiu corrected her, puzzled at the mix-up. She looked up and saw that Yun Liu looked uncomfortable, and Gu Wei also had an awkward expression.

She then realized the cause of the misunderstanding and sullenly told the shop assistant, “You must be new here and haven’t had much training, have you? You haven’t even gotten your facts straight before assuming our relationship! My second sister-in-law is Yun Nan, not this Miss Yun Liu here! My brother and Yun Nan are already married, so mind that you don’t spread rumors and cause a scandal for Shi Nian. He’ll close down your shop if you do!”

Shocked at that, the shop assistant hurriedly apologized, “I’m sorry about that, Miss Shi. It was ignorant of me.” And with that, she stuck out her tongue childishly and smiled before quickly lowering her head.

Shi Xiu turned to Gu Wei—who was unable to interject despite wishing to—and stated, “Aunt Yun, please don’t take offense. This little shop assistant is inexperienced and arbitrarily paired people together. Yun Liu aims to be a big celebrity in the future, so she can’t be involved in any scandals with my brother. It won’t be good for her career.”

She continued to say, “Yun Nan and Shi Nian are quite happily married. My grandfather and my parents also like her very much. Right now, my mother is trying to come up with a reason to get Shi Nian and Yun Nan to move back home and live with us. You can continue shopping with Yun Liu. I’ll be going now; I have a play date with my sister-in-law.”

Shi Xiu had the shop assistant swipe her card while she spoke. She had bought more than ten pieces of clothing in total, including the dress Yun Liu had taken a fancy to. The shop’s staff speedily wrapped up her purchases.

Shi Xiu instructed them to immediately send the clothes to her brother’s company before she waved at Gu Wei and Yun Liu and left merrily..
