Capítulo 12: A Hateful Ex-Girlfriend!

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

To be honest, Li Shengxia did not feel too kindly towards this store. She was in no mood to try on this blouse.

Mo Nianchen saw that she was not budging, and offered a few cold, cutting words, "What, do you need help putting it on, too?"

After Mo Nianchen said this, Li Shengxia immediately headed to the fitting room with the blouse. Although she did not wish to wear it, her intuition told her it was best to avoid confrontations with him!

Shop Clerk One watched the fitting room guardedly. She was worried that if she looked away, Li Shengxia would run away with the blouse.

After a while, Li Shengxia came out of the fitting room.

The moment the door swung open, the two shop clerks were totally stunned.

Was this an example of "Clothes make the man", or in this case, "the woman"? This woman had undergone a drastic transformation in a matter of seconds!

The envy in Shop Clerk One's eyes was obvious. This blouse was a new arrival. She dared not even touch it carelessly, but now some random passerby was trying it on!

"Do you like it?" Mo Nianchen asked.

"Not at all!" Li Shengxia observed herself in the dressing mirror. To tell the truth, buying something from a store with shop clerks like these made her feel like gagging!

"Sounds more like sour grapes to me!" Shop Clerk One exclaimed in irritation, giving Li Shengxia a hard, vicious look! It was already blasphemy that she tried on this divine blouse! Now she had the nerve to say she did not like it!

When she thought of this, she looked at Mo Nianchen and said solemnly, "Sir, you said before that you'll buy it for certain, which is why I allowed her to put it on. You can't go back on your word now."

At this instant, someone opened the doors of the store.

The woman who came in had flaxen hair that cascaded past her waist in great waves. She was tall, thin, and gorgeous, the hottest celebrity at the moment—Gina.

She took off her sunglasses as she walked in and immediately asked a shop clerk who was in uniform, "The blouse that I wanted — has it arrived?"

Shop Clerk One saw that Gina had come and dashed over to say, "Miss Gina, it's here, it's here. Look, it's that one…"

"Why is someone else wearing it?" Gina's voice was cold. "Take it off!"

Li Shengxia's eyebrows twitched slightly.

"Why are you still dawdling? Didn't you say that you didn't like it? Take it off then!" Shop Clerk One immediately piped up.

Shop Clerk Two nudged Shop Clerk One at once to shut her up. Just now, that gentleman had swiped his card. This blouse already belonged to him, so they had no right to make Li Shengxia take it off.

Regardless, how could Shop Clerk One know this? She had been fuming over Li Shengxia all this time!

Li Shengxia did not like this blouse very much, but she would not stand being insulted like this!

"Take it off now!" Shop Clerk One was anxious to please Gina and actually reached out to grab Li Shengxia's blouse.

Mo Nianchen kicked Shop Clerk One away and said icily, "Are you tired of living!?"

Shop Clerk Two was terrified and immediately helped up Shop Clerk One. "Leader, this blouse has been paid for by this gentleman!"

Shop Clerk One was aghast and, for an instant, did not know how to react. She could only accept being kicked. Although she was not seriously injured, some scrapes and bruises were inevitable!

At the same time, Gina heard Mo Nianchen's voice and turned to him in great surprise. "Crown… Crown Prince! Why are you here?"

Crown prince?

Could this be the crown prince of the Emperor Heritage Group?

The two shop clerks were endlessly stupefied…

In particular, Shop Clerk One felt her hair stand on end! She had actually unintentionally offended such a scary figure!

"Don't touch what doesn't belong to you," Mo Nianchen said coldly as he brushed Li Shengxia's shoulder where the shop clerk and Gina had touched her.

After that, Mo Nianchen leisurely took out a few sheets of tissue paper, wiping his hand repeatedly, as if he had touched something unclean.

Gina was stunned. "I've wanted this blouse for a long time. To think that you've purchased it." She shot a furious glare at Shop Clerk One. "Didn't you agree to keep it for me!? Why was it sold off!?"

"That… That…" Shop Clerk One could not help sweating profusely. "Because you didn't pay the deposit, and you never came, I thought that someone as busy and popular as you… Had forgotten about it…" She shrank back, frightened of offending Gina as well.

"I've never heard of someone running a business like this! I wanted this blouse, but you sold it off to someone else just like that!"

Mo Nianchen cut in coldly, "You're wrong there. Right now, you're the one wanting something that doesn't belong to you."

Gina practically choked when she heard what he said. She glanced at him and pouted. "Crown Prince, I've liked this blouse for so long. In any case, we were together once. Affection lingers even if love does not, right? Can you let me have this blouse?"

Li Shengxia's expression suddenly froze. They were together before? Since when?

She lifted her gaze to look at Gina with a flash of understanding. That was right, did she think that nothing would happen in the five years she was away? Moreover, had she not herself looked for him in the first place because she heard of his generous breakup fee? Why had she never thought about how many girlfriends he had had over the years?

Still, Gina was actually one of his ex-girlfriends? Li Shengxia suddenly felt extremely uneasy for some reason! Nonetheless, her expression remained the same as before.

The phrase "Affection lingers even if love does not" echoed ceaselessly in her mind, and she felt an indescribable prick of pain.

Mo Nianchen looked at Li Shengxia, hoping to see a flash of emotion in her eyes, but he saw nothing.

Why would she care whether he had been with someone else before—she had always hated him. When he realized this, a self-deprecating smile tugged at his lips.

He looked at Gina and replied in a deliberate manner, "Since you've taken the breakup fee, our relationship has ended. Don't bring it up anymore. It. Disgusts. Me."

Gina's expression turned to stone for an instant, before she burst into a smile. "Crown Prince, I really really like this blouse. Please, please, let me have it."

Li Shengxia felt that Gina's voice had become unusually shrill.

Mo Nianchen darted a sideways glance at Li Shengxia and said coolly, "That depends on whether the owner agrees."

Gina's face distorted into a grimace. Only then did she look at Li Shengxia in the face. "And this is—" She had not finished speaking when she did a double-take, and blurted out incredulously, "Li Shengxia? Is that you?"

Li Shengxia never imagined that Gina, who had such average looks when she was young, would grow up to become so pretty. Of course, those fake nose and eyes probably cost her a pretty penny as well.

Li Shengxia did not know why but she felt hostile towards Gina! Perhaps she had just never thought that Mo Nianchen would have the bad taste to date someone like this! In the past, he had clearly stated that he hated Gina!
