The saleslady really could not afford to offend the woman who had just entered, so she could only say apologetically to Bai Yaoyao, “Okay, I will bring it to you right away.”

The woman clad in blue said arrogantly, “Bring that for me as well. I saw it first.”

The furrow between Bai Yaoyao’s brows deepened. She now had a gut feeling that this woman had something against her.

However, Bai Yaoyao couldn’t remember such a woman, so why was she against her?

At that moment, Duan Yanhao walked in after finishing his phone call. He had just stepped inside, so he did not have the time to say anything yet.

The woman turned around immediately and said happily, “Brother Yanhao, I didn’t expect to see you here.” As she spoke, she closed the distance between her and Duan Yanhao.

Duan Yanhao took his hand out of his pocket to grab the woman’s hand, not letting her near him. His gaze darkened as he asked, “Why are you here?”

“Brother Yanhao, if you can be here, why can’t I be here?”

Duan Yanhao shook his head. That was not what he meant, but the person in front of him should not have appeared here, so why did she go out of her way to come here?

Chi Jiajia looked at her hand that was grabbed by him and said unhappily, “Brother Yanhao, you’re hurting me.”

Chi Jiajia whined, which caused Duan Yanhao’s brows to furrow. He loosened his grasp on her hand. “You don’t come here usually. Even when you do your shopping, you wouldn’t come here. I remember you mentioning it once.”

“Brother Yanhao, am I not allowed to just want to come here?”

“Speak nicely. What’s going on here?”

Duan Yanhao looked at Bai Yaoyao, who was standing over there. All of a sudden, he felt as if she was the wind. The distance between them widened so much.

Just when Duan Yanhao was about to walk to Bai Yaoyao, Chi Jiajia rushed between them, blocking him from reaching Bai Yaoyao.

Seeing that Duan Yanhao was quickly becoming impatient, Chi Jiajia said, “New Year is just around the corner, so I’m here to buy some clothes. I like these two gowns, but she likes them too. When I wanted to buy it, she wanted to buy it too. Brother Yanhao, what should I do? I really like these two. It’s really hard to find things that fit.”

Duan Yanhao lowered his head to look at Chi Jiajia as a sharp glint flashed across his cold eyes.

Chi Jiajia was stunned by his glare, so much so that she felt numb. She said in a wronged tone as tears welled up in her eyes, “Brother Yanhao, why are you looking at me that way? Did I do something wrong?”

Bai Yaoyao just looked at them. From the initial shock she felt, all she felt right now was calm and loneliness.

Bai Yaoyao laughed self-deprecatingly inwardly. Turns out that she was still alone. The chill and loneliness she felt in her heart were so incredibly intense.

She felt that she had already lost all her feelings because she had once been hurt before. Everything simply felt numb right now.

Furthermore, she already knew that Duan Yanhao was a person with a history, so she shouldn’t have been shocked, right?

She did not wish to retaliate with what this woman said. If that was what Duan Yanhao felt, she would not explain herself.

When someone believed you, you would not have to explain. If someone did not believe you, it would not matter how much you explained.

Duan Yanhao did not reply to Chi Jiajia, and instead, went around her to reach Bai Yaoyao. He placed both his arms on Bai Yaoyao’s shoulders and asked, “Are you okay?”

Looking at that, Chi Jiajia’s face turned into a shade of ugly red as her eyes widened.

The moment Duan Yanhao’s hands touched her shoulders, Bai Yaoyao could feel her iced feelings slowly melting away in his warmth once again.
