You Make Money, I'll Spend It: Stepmother's Ultimate Pleasure in the Aristocratic Family

Chapter 38

A handsome guy came to the flower shop, and not only did the two female employees show more enthusiasm than usual, but the number of customers in the store also visibly increased.

The rich housewives of Yuetting at Xiyu usually have a lot of free time.

Upon hearing that a handsome store manager had arrived at the flower shop near their homes, they made appointments to come to Yueji Flower House for afternoon tea whenever they had the chance.

Cheng Zhuo quickly got the hang of his work and within just three days, he not only sorted out any potential loopholes in the flower delivery process and handed a document to Sheng Mumu, but also suggested keeping records of the favorite bouquets, pastries, colors, and scents of the regular customers who often visited the shop, for future customized birthday gifts for the members.

After observing for a few days, Sheng Mumu was also very satisfied with Cheng Zhuo's character.

Thus, she entrusted the management of the store to him with confidence and took a day off for herself, finally enjoying a lazy sleep.

Sheng Mumu left when the sun was not so scorching in the afternoon.

She planned to buy some equipment for her upcoming skiing vacation.

"You can drive the car back; I'll take a taxi home later."

Sheng Mumu got out of the car and bent down to say to the driver inside.

It had been a long time since she went shopping, and she didn't know how long she would indulge in the shopping spree, so she didn't want to keep the driver waiting in the car all the time and let him go back first.

Jing City is bustling with tall buildings, but this shopping mall is somewhat different from the others, with not many people coming and going.

She just told the driver that she wanted to go shopping and buy things, so naturally, he took her to the mall where luxury stores gathered.

The interior decoration was luxurious and grand, and the air conditioning was turned up to the maximum, as if electricity was free.

Sheng Mumu stood in front of a counter selling sunglasses and subconsciously shrunk her neck.

On one hand, it was to keep warm.

On the other hand, she didn't want the shop assistant to see her slightly open mouth in surprise.

Are these sunglasses studded with diamonds?

Why do they cost six figures?

Her hand involuntarily reached for her handbag, secretly feeling grateful.

Fortunately, she brought the supplementary card given by Qi Mo.

The prices in this mall are so high that it would be painful if she had to pay with her own money.

Thinking of this, her bright eyes turned around.

She took out her phone and sent a message to Qi Mo: "I plan to buy some skiing equipment. What size do you usually wear for clothes?"

Since she was planning to spend her sugar daddy's money, naturally she had to understand the principle of being grateful in order to spend it with a clear conscience.

When Qi Mo received Sheng Mumu's message, he was in a meeting.

Sitting in the middle of the conference room, his expression was indifferent.

Seeing the phone light up, he lowered his gaze and picked up the phone with his slender hand.

In the next second, the department heads sitting around the conference table seemed to notice that the cold and dignified CEO's eyes seemed to lift slightly, and then they saw him give a faint glance to his assistant.

His special assistant immediately understood and announced, "The meeting is suspended. We will resume in ten minutes."

After everyone dispersed, Qi Mo leaned back in his leather chair and lightly frowned as he replied:

"No need to make a special trip. When you arrive at the resort, someone will take care of it."

Sheng Mumu typed quickly and soon three messages were sent back:

"I've already arrived at the mall."

"Qi Boss, you don't understand. Doing the preparatory work before going on a trip is also part of enjoying the trip." f𝚛ee𝐰𝗲𝐛n𝐨v𝚎𝗹.com

"By the way, prepare a set for Qi Shaobai too, so that he doesn't feel left out. Do you know his size?"

The man lowered his gaze, his long lashes concealing his gaze, his fingertip hovering above the screen without pressing it, lost in thought.

On the other side, Sheng Mumu rested her chin on her hands, sitting on a tall stool in the shopping mall's resting area, her fair legs swinging back and forth.

After a while, she finally received Qi Mo's message with his measurements.

Following that message was another one: "Which shopping mall are you in?"

She looked up at the mall's sign, tapping on her phone, and suddenly a bright idea flashed in her mind.

Sheng Mumu: "Henglong Plaza, General Qi, may I timidly ask if this mall happens to be one of your businesses?"

Sheng Mumu: "Could it be that a group of people will suddenly come out and say to me, 'Madam, please choose freely. Qi Young Master will foot the bill tonight'?"

Sheng Mumu: "If that's the case, please let me know in advance. I'm afraid I'll be too surprised and embarrass you."

Ever since the incident with the jewelry case where she was told to wear anything worth twenty million casually, she had become bolder in speculating about this man's wealth.

If Qi Mo replied to her, saying, "I happen to own this mall," she wouldn't be surprised at all.

Qi Mo looked at his phone, a satisfied arc forming at the corner of his lips, and replied with a low chuckle: "You have quite the imagination. I was just asking casually."

Not hearing the expected lines from the overbearing CEO, Sheng Mumu pursed her lips.

After a brief warm-up with some opening lines, she finally cautiously entered the main topic, dividing her sentence into three parts:

Sheng Mumu: "Um... You also know... the flower shop recently hired a new store manager. He's good-looking and capable, and I'm paying him a high salary."

The other side: "?"

Sheng Mumu: "During the store's development phase, it's better to keep some working capital."

The other side: "Hmm."

Sheng Mumu: "So... can I use your card for shopping today?"

The other side: "Once I give it to you, it's yours to use however you want."

Sheng Mumu's eyes suddenly lit up.

Finally, the line from the overbearing CEO had arrived, albeit late!

She replied to Qi Mo with three emoticons, smilingly:

"Thank you, Boss.jpg", "Boss, you're generous.jpg", "Let me massage your legs, Boss.jpg"

Qi Mo's gaze lingered on the screen, his eyes filled with deep thoughts.

He was still thinking about what she had just said.

Good-looking and capable?

...

Two hours later.

After buying a down jacket, Sheng Mumu went to the sports apparel floor and picked three sets of skiing equipment and some small items.

Loaded with bags, she descended to the ground floor.

As the mall's revolving door turned, a gust of cold wind blew in.

Sheng Mumu reached the entrance and realized that it was pouring rain outside.

The weather in midsummer—bright and sunny one second, stormy the next.

She stood at the door, feeling worried when she heard the sound of her phone receiving a message.

Qi Mo: "It's raining outside. Tell the driver to go slower when you go home."

Sheng Mumu hung the bags on her forearm and took out her hand to reply:

"I asked the driver to go back earlier, so now I'm forced to wait at the door. It seems like the heavens think I've spent too much of your money today, so they're giving me a wake-up call with rain [crying and laughing emoji]."

After replying to the message, before she had a chance to open the ride-hailing app, she suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Sister Sheng."

There was only one person who called her that: Cheng Zhuo.

Sheng Mumu looked through the rain and saw Cheng Zhuo's car parked on the other side of the road, about a dozen meters away.

The window was rolled down a bit, and Cheng Zhuo shouted through the pouring rain:

"Sister Sheng, are you waiting for a driver? The traffic is terrible now. Where are you going? I can give you a ride."

Sheng Mumu looked up at the gloomy sky.

Judging by the situation, the rain would not stop anytime soon, and the road conditions would surely become more complicated.

Without being polite to the enthusiastic new employee, she smiled helplessly and shouted back:

"Thank you for the trouble. I'm going to Xiyu Yueting."

Cheng Zhuo found the only umbrella in the car and ran over.

Seeing the shopping bag in her hand, he reached out to take it:

"Let me put your things in the car first, so they won't get wet."

He took the bag and hurried towards the car.

Just then, Sheng Mumu's phone rang.

It was a call from Qi Mo.

His deep voice carried a sense of stability, but she could tell that he was speaking faster than usual.

"There's heavy traffic during rush hour. You don't have to wait for the driver at home. I'll come and pick you up. Find a café in the mall to rest for a while, I'll be there soon."

Sheng Mumu felt relieved and said, "No need. I'm lucky. I ran into a new employee who gave me a ride."

Qi Mo's large hand holding the phone paused for a moment before he could respond. Then, a young man's passionate and clear voice came through the earpiece.

"Sister Sheng, I've put the things away. Let's go. We only have one umbrella, so please bear with it."
