The Overnight Chosen Wife: Darling, Kiss Me Deeper

On Sunday, Li Lanni was less busy so she went shopping with Cheng Yu.

"What do you want to buy? I'll help you find it." She offered. She didn't need anything at the moment so she had only come to accompany Cheng Yu.

"It will be my mother's birthday soon. i want to get her a present."

"I see. Perhaps..."

Li Lanni suddenly felt uneasy. She turned sharply to look behind her, her heart racing out of its normal rhythm.

She clutched onto her purse tightly. 'Strange... why did I feel like I'm being followed again?' her mind was fuzzy because she didn't see anyone suspicious. Was she simply being paranoid again?

"What do you think of this jade bracelet? It's one of a kind; I haven't ever seen a similar one. Cheng Yu turned when Li Lanni didn't respond after a long time. She had blanked out. "Lanni?"

"Lanni!"

Li Lanni finally snapped back after being shaken violently.

"Yes... eh, what was it you were saying?"

Cheng Yu showed her the bracelet she had selected. "Does it look pretty?"

Li Lanni took a brief look at it. "It does look beautiful and unique too. It's befitting of a noble woman."

Cheng Yu smiled elatedly. If Lanni said it was beautiful, then it was really beautiful. After all, what kind of expensive, delicate and mesmerizing things had the girl from the Li family not seen before?

"Then I'll buy this one. Let's look around for a while first."

Li Lanni had blanked out again. This time, she was really sure that she was being followed. It was an intuition, but it was stronger than all the other times.

"Lanni, is anything wrong?" Cheng Yu touched her head, checking for a fever.

"Cheng Yu, I think I'm being followed. But I don't see anyone suspicious."

Cheng Yu looked around then she slapped her forehead when she saw a certain figure on the first floor. Seriously, V? That is such an old school move. You will scare girls away if you follow them in such a blatant manner.

Those who didn't know would mistake you for an assassin of sorts.

"Actually, I think that person has been stalking me since I woke up from coma? Could it be that I'm just scaring myself?" Li Lanni was beside herself with anxiety.

Cheng Yu secretly glared at the figure on the first floor, tying to warn him into leaving.

She quickly turned back to look at the scared Li Lanni. "Probably. Lanni, the accident must have traumatized you. Don't think about it too much."

Li Lanni shook her head like a rattle. "Impossible. That person has been sending me letters. They even sent me a text recently.

Don't look at me like I'm insane... I'll show you right away."

At this moment, the figure on the first floor took out a phone from the jacket's pocket and started tapping on it rapidly. Those fingers were literally flying on the phone's screen.

Li Lanni searched for her phone in her purse and unlocked it.

"You don't believe me, right? Here it... eh?"

Where's the text message gone?

"I swear, there was really a text message."

Speechlessly, Cheng Yu took her hand and pulled her phone from it, putting it back in her purse. "Lanni, you are too anxious. You should be more relaxed, alright?"

Li Lanni took a deep breath. "Perhaps I'm starting to hallucinate."

Cheng Yu took her hand and pulled her along, admiring the beautiful necklaces, rings and bracelets in this store.

When they had pleased their eyes enough, Cheng Yu took the bracelet she had chosen and went to the counter. "I'm taking this one. Help me wrap it up as a present."

The lady at the counter took her card to swipe.

"Miss, there's not enough balance here." the lady looked displeased, returning the card.

Cheng Yu suddenly remembered that she had bought new clothes for her younger brother. She checked in her wallet for cash and when she didn't find enough, she took out another card. "Use this one."

Giving her a glance of disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e, the lady took the second card. Her eyes seemed to accuse Cheng Yu of wasting her time.

"It's not enough here either." The lady was even more infuruated. "If you don't have enough money, don't go buying expensive things."

Cheng Yu slapped her forehead, realizing that she had taken out her brother's card in her haste.

The lady was no longer willing to take anything from Cheng Yu. "Why don't you ask your friend to buy it for you? She looks rich considering all the clothes she is wearing are from big-name brands. Her purse alone must cost hundreds of thousands. Why can't she pay it up for you?

You can write her an IOU. You must have made her come along since you have that intention anyway."

"Excuse me?" Li Lanni was thinking of a way to suggest helping Cheng Yu out without making it sound humiliating, but when the sales lady put it this way, it was definitely offensive. How could she make Cheng Yu pass off as a freeloader?

"That will not be necessary." Cheng Yu took out the right card. "It's only five hundred thousand. The money in here is definitely more than enough." She was only tolerating this kind of humiliation because she really liked this bracelet.

"Wait. How much did you say it costs?" Li Lanni suddenly grabbed her hand.

"Five hundred thousand?" Cheng Yu didn't understand why her friend was so shocked.

Li Lanni took the bracelet to examine it carefully. Cheng Yu and the sales lady watched nervously as she regarded the bracelet like a scuentific experiment of sorts.

"It's a counterfeit." She said after an agonizing ampunt of time.

"What?" Both Cheng Yu and the sales lady were shocked.

Li Lanni took out her phone and made a search. Then she showed Cheng Yu a picture.

"It's this bracelet. It was auctioned in Country G for 1.2 million? Then how come it costs five hundred thousand now?"
