Zhou Xuan blushed. He quickly slipped outside the shop and waved to Fu Ying and Zhou Ying from the doorway. He also shouted "Hi!"
Fu Ying and Zhou Ying both saw it and quickly got into the car.
Zhou Xuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they had noticed him. Turning around, he saw the waitress staring intently at him, perhaps worried that he had run away.
In the snack shop. To be honest, I've never met anyone like Zhou Xuan, who ate a ton of food he couldn't finish, but didn't have any money.
Zhou Xuan returned to his table in the shop and sat down, too embarrassed to look around. Almost everyone in the shop was staring at him.
The waitress who followed Zhou Xuan outside saw him wave in another direction, but she didn't know if he was calling to Fu Ying and the others across the street. There were many people, and they weren't very close. Who knew who he was calling, or was he just putting on an act? The more she thought about it, the more suspicious she became. Who would order so much food without money? Even if he forgot his money, one person wouldn't order enough for three or four people, would they? He must be trying to freeload.
The two girls were even more disdainful, and their voices grew louder. To be honest, Zhou Xuan had no intention of arguing with those two girls or trying to save face. It was pointless. Even if he wanted to pretend, these two shallow women weren't worth him putting on an act.
But when they told him, he really felt embarrassed. It made him seem like a freeloader, and it was just a small amount of money.
But what Zhou Xuan didn't expect was that the sick rogue was actually the one who did these things and was greedy for these small advantages.
There was a screeching sound of brakes outside the shop.
A blue Bugatti Veyron pulled up on the side of the road outside the snack shop, and Fu Ying and Zhou Ying walked in with smiles on their faces.
Fu Ying's stunning beauty immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the store.
Fu Ying is indeed very beautiful.
The two girls who had just mocked Zhou Xuan were also taken aback. Ah Zhen whispered, "Aren't these the two girls who bought jewelry from our shop? What are they doing eating at such a cheap place?"
As soon as Zhou Ying entered, she exclaimed, "Brother, why did you run out of the store instead of staying inside? We've been looking for you everywhere!"
Fu Ying didn't say anything. She gracefully walked over and sat down next to Zhou Xuan. She glanced at the snacks on the counter and exclaimed, "You ordered so many? They look delicious!"
Zhou Xuan sighed and said, "Sigh. I changed my clothes this morning and forgot my wallet, so I don't have any money to pay. Here, pay up."
"Oh. How much?" Fu Ying asked, taking out a red wallet from her handbag.
Zhou Xuan held up four fingers and said, "Forty-eight yuan!"
Fu Ying smiled gently. She took a hundred-yuan bill from her wallet and placed it on the table.
Zhou Ying sat opposite them, cupping her face in her elbows and saying to Zhou Xuan, "Brother, sister-in-law just bought over 300,000 yuan worth of jewelry at the jewelry store. She said it was for me and Mom, and also bought Dad and my second brother each a watch worth over 110,000 yuan. I—" I told her not to buy it, but she insisted!"

Volume 1, Chapter 121: A Romantic Encounter or a Scam?
When Ye returned to his hometown, Wei Xiaoqing brought gifts for Zhou Fu's family. Fu Leihan's daughter-in-law, however, returned empty-handed, losing face. Zhou Xuan knew she was upset, so today she made up for it.
"Of course you can't accept what other people buy, but you have to accept whatever your sister-in-law buys!" Zhou Xuan said with a smile, glancing at the two girls out of the corner of his eye, only to see that both of them were blushing and had their heads down.
Even a fool would understand that Zhou Xuan was no freeloader or scoundrel who came here to freeload. Just look at that beautiful sports car outside; although I don't know how much it costs, it certainly wouldn't be a matter of hundreds of thousands. And Fu Ying had just bought 300,000 worth of jewelry at the jewelry store where those two girls worked. She was just expressing her envy and jealousy, but she never expected such a coincidence that this country bumpkin who came to eat without any money would actually be the boyfriend of that rich and beautiful girl!
Zhou Xuan smiled faintly, stood up, and said, "Let's go. Let's go home!"
Fu Ying and Zhou Ying each took Zhou Xuan's arm, and the three of them walked out of the store together.
Everyone in the shop was speechless and stunned, especially the two girls from the jewelry store.
After a moment of stunned silence, the waitress picked up the hundred-yuan note from the counter, only to realize she hadn't given them change. Just as she was about to call out, outside the shop, Fu Ying had already started her sports car, the Bugatti Veyron roaring onto the highway. At home, Aunt Liu had already prepared lunch. Zhou Xuan and the other two had returned at a good time. Zhou Ying called her father and second brother Zhou Tao, who were at the shop, but no one else was back. She told them they had already eaten at a nearby restaurant.
After a simple meal, Zhou Xuan wasn't hungry, as he had just eaten at a snack shop, but he still ate a little something to avoid his mother's nagging.
After the meal, Aunt Liu brought out a plate of washed and sliced pears, and each person ate a slice of pear.
Once in the living room, Fu Ying took out the gift box and presented it to Jin Xiumei, saying with a smile, "Mom, I have a gift for you!"
"Oh!" Jin Xiumei was particularly fond of this daughter-in-law. Upon seeing the gift, she took it and opened it. It was a bright white necklace, very beautiful. There was a pendant in the middle of the chain, and a sparkling bead, like glass, was set in the white edging. It had many sharp edges. She smiled and said, "This necklace is beautiful. It looks expensive, probably over a thousand?"
Zhou Ying stuck out her tongue, but Fu Ying quickly smiled and said, "It's not expensive, it's quite cheap, and I didn't buy anything expensive. Mom, let me put it on for you!" As she spoke, she took the chain and put it around Jin Xiumei's neck from behind.
This chain is platinum and diamond-encrusted, designed by a famous designer, and is worth 220,000 RMB. The diamond ring on Zhou Ying's hand is a little cheaper, but it is still worth 110,000 RMB. In all her life, apart from the expensive gift that Wei Xiaoqing gave her last time, Zhou Ying has never seen anything so valuable, especially since it was bought for her. Even if it was her sister-in-law, she wouldn't dare to accept it.
But Fu Ying insisted on buying it, and later her older brother said she could accept it. Since her brother agreed, she thought it was fine and happily accepted it. After all, what girl doesn't love beauty and being pretty?
After Fu Ying put the necklace on Jin Xiumei, she looked at it from the front and said with a smile, "Mom looks so beautiful in this necklace!"
Jin Xiumei laughed and said, "I'm just an old woman, what's so pretty about me?" As she spoke, she held Fu Ying's hand tightly, reluctant to let go. "My wife is the prettiest. Back in our hometown, everyone envies our Xuanwa. Even in our county, you couldn't find a girl prettier than my wife, even if you searched with lanterns!"
Fu Ying blushed slightly. She didn't mind Zhou Xuan praising her, but she was still a little shy that her mother-in-law was praising her in front of so many people. Of course, she was still happy inside.
Zhou Xuan met the three of them. She was in high spirits, and suddenly felt a warmth in her heart. This must be the warmth of family, a manifestation of kinship!
Fu Ying secretly slipped the red box containing the chain into a corner by the sand. There were tickets inside, and she planned to take it away and have Zhou Ying hide it when she found an opportunity.
Zhou Xuan picked up the pen again, took out the ticket and glanced at it. The price didn't cause much surprise, so Fu Ying probably didn't think it was too expensive.
Zhou Xuan glanced at it and saw the words "Chen's Jewelry" on the jewelry receipt. He muttered "Chen's Jewelry" to himself without thinking, then stuffed the receipt back into the box and tossed it into a corner.
After a while, Zhou Xuan said, "Mom, Yingying, I'm going to Yangzhou tomorrow. I might not be back for a few days."
"Going to Yangzhou? Why would you go out again after just getting back?" Jin Xiumei was somewhat displeased.
Fu Ying was stunned for a moment, then said, "I'll go with you!"
"Yingying." Zhou Xuan scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "You'd better not go. I'm just going to the Yangzhou antique market with ** to pick up a few items. Boss Zhang has already booked two plane tickets. We'll come back as soon as we're done. You don't need to come along. Just rest at home."
"I want to go!" Fu Ying said stubbornly.
"Alright, if Yingying wants to go, then let her go with her. It'll be more reassuring to have a wife watching over things!"
Jin Xiumei also agreed that Fu Ying should go with Zhou Xuan. Of course, what she really meant was that with such a beautiful daughter-in-law by her son's side, they might just get things done and give the Zhou family a grandson soon!
