Xia Yi's bleeding heart was instantly healed.
Refusing a bag but gaining the approval of Sister Ming Ci, what a bargain!
With the mentality of playing the long game for a big catch, she shopped the entire afternoon until her legs nearly broke. Even though she didn't snag anything for herself and could only look on with envy, Xia Yi still felt it was worth it!
And moreover—
Even if she couldn't accept gifts from Ming Ge, she could certainly accept Ming Ci's without guilt!
Who knew, as soon as Xia Yi mentioned going shopping to Ming Ci, scarred by the previous ordeal set by Ming Ge, Ming Ci reacted with emotional resistance and refused.
Ming. Straight-man Syndrome. Ci said, "Yiyi, you should go shopping with my sister. I believe you'll have more in common. Shopping isn't really suitable for a boy like me."
