“Of course, how could I lie to my cousin-in-law?” Cheng Liu gave her friends a look, “Cousin-in-law, you came from a poor neighborhood and haven’t seen many things. If you don’t believe me, you can ask others to see if this color is the most popular color this year?”

“That’s right.”

The girls next to them looked at each other and smiled in agreement. “This color is popular among the upper-class society. Men are attracted to this color. A few of our friends found boyfriends after wearing this color. ”

What they didn’t say was that the color that men liked did exist, but it wasn’t the one in Shen Hanxing’s hand.

Shen Hanxing looked at them and sighed in her heart. A group of bad girls who were trying to find happiness by embarrassing others.

She pulled the makeup mirror on the counter to her and seemed to believe what they said. She picked up the lipstick and moved it closer to her lips. “So this is what the upper-class society likes…”

The girls looked at her action excitedly. The moment the lipstick was about to touch her lips, Shen Hanxing suddenly pushed the mirror away and grabbed Cheng Liu’s arm with one hand. She quickly slammed Cheng Liu against the counter.

Pa!

Bang!

The perfume, lipstick, and various cosmetics products displayed on the counter were scattered all over the floor. The unique fragrances of various cosmetic products were mixed together, forming a suffocating smell.

“Ah!”

Cheng Liu shrieked, “Shen Hanxing, what are you doing? !”

“What am I doing?”

Shen Hanxing smiled playfully. “Since you know that I came from a poor area overseas, didn’t you investigate further? Don’t you know that I often fought while I was there?”

What, what did she mean?

Cheng Liu’s face turned pale. “Co…cousin-in-law, I’m trying to help you integrate into the upper class. Why, why are you treating me like this? Did I do something wrong?”

After saying that, she seemed to have more confidence and lowered her voice. “Cousin-in-law, you attacked me right after you married into the Ji family. Aren’t you afraid that my cousin will be angry with you?”

If Shen Hanxing angered Ji Yan ended up getting a divorce, she would have to return to the poverty-stricken areas where there were all kinds of bad guys.

“I advise you to be obedient.”

Shen Hanxing exerted a little force on her hand, and Cheng Liu immediately screamed.

“I’ve been in a lot of fights. I know where to hit so it hurts the most but won’t leave any marks. You can go and complain to Ji Yan. You can even go to the hospital for a check-up. I guarantee that you won’t be able to find a single mark on yourself. Of course, that’s assuming that I beat you up. Since you’re threatening to complain, I naturally have to beat you up, right?”

Cheng Liu froze.

If what Shen Hanxing said was true… she would get beaten up in a crowded mall. That would be too embarrassing. She couldn’t accept that!

Seeing that Cheng Liu was lying there without moving, Shen Hanxing nodded in satisfaction. “Very good. I don’t like the lipstick color you recommended. I see that you like it very much, so why don’t I give it to you?”

After saying that, she did not give Cheng Liu the chance to refuse. She twisted off the lid and applied a thick layer of that Death Barbie Pink lipstick on her mouth.

In a blink of an eye, the socialite who was wearing exquisite makeup suddenly looked like a village girl. Her skin turned a few shades darker, and she looked dull and uncultured.

Shen Hanxing sized her up carefully. After admiring her appearance, she let go of her hand in satisfaction. “I guessed correctly. This color doesn’t suit me very well, but it suits you very well.”

She took out the card that Ji Yan gave her when they first met and handed it to the sales clerk who was trembling in fear and did not dare to speak. “I’ll pay for everything, including everything that was damaged.”

The sales clerk gratefully took the black card and ran off to settle the bill.

Mrs. Ji was smart, beautiful, and wild. She was so cool!

As soon as Cheng Liu was free, the first thing she did was to look in the mirror. She looked at her horrendous appearance in the mirror and listened to the faint laughter around her. She was so embarrassed that she was about to cry.

Shen Hanxing looked at her with high spirits. “Shopping with my cousin is very interesting. Where are we going next?”

“No, nowhere.”

Cheng Liu gritted her teeth. She was so angry that her whole body was trembling, but she still managed to put on a smile. She said reluctantly, “I just remembered that I have something to do later, so I can’t accompany my cousin-in-law. Sorry…”

“Is that so…”

Shen Hanxing sighed regretfully. “I wanted you to teach me more rules of the upper-clas society. I guess I will have to wait for the next time.”

Next time? That will never happen again in this life!
