Chapter 872: Cousin

Far away from Imperial Military Hospital, a white Mercedes enters the parking lot of Blush Tree. The car parks in an empty spot and the driver's door opens.

A healthy-looking man steps out into view. He wore a white tailored suit with a black coat over for warmth.

He walks around the car and opens the passenger door. He held the door in place while his other hand reached inside.

Everything about him was that of a true gentleman.

"Sweetheart, take my hand."

He smiles with ease, and a slender hand lands on top of his hand.

"Thank you."

A soft chuckle sounds from the person and comes into view. This person was none other than Ji Chu Hua.

"You're always a gentleman, brother Ting Fei."

Her smile radiated with elegance. She glowed like a woman in love with the man helping her get out of the car.

"I'm so happy you are free to come here with me despite your busy schedule."

Gu Ting Fei's heart softened when he saw her smile. Although they do not love each other, they were compatible in each other's arms.

He gently tightens his hold on her hand and helps her get out.

"My schedule is never too busy when it comes to you."

Ji Chu Hua chuckles at his sweet words. She had forgotten all about Choi Li Sun. She put all her attention on the man in front of her.

"You always know what to say to woo a woman's heart."

She locks her arm with him and walks towards the store. Anyone who saw them would undoubtedly see them as a couple madly in love with each other.

"Hello, Miss Ji. Welcome to Blush Tree."

As the two entered the store, a female employee greeted them with a smile.

When she saw Gu Ting Fei, her cheeks flushed ever so slightly at how attractive he looked.

However, she suddenly remembers something and glances at Ji Chu Hua.

The last time she (Ji Chu Hua) was here, she was with a different man. She thought this but pushed it aside as it was not her business.

"Can I help you with anything today?"

Ji Chu Hua sneered inside when she saw the employee turn bashful in front of Gu Ting Fei. However, she takes out her ID card and a receipt before handing them to the employee.

At the same time, she purposely leans closer to the man and presses her chest against his arms.

"I'm here to pick up my dress. Is it ready?"

The employee was quick to return to work mode. She smiles and takes the ID card and receipt.

"Please wait in the room next door. I will bring your dress out."

Ji Chu Hua holds her head high and walks away with Gu Ting Fei. She steals a glance at him and is satisfied to see that he paid no attention to the employee.

As the employee headed to the back of the store, Ji Chu Hua and Gu Ting Fei sat in the waiting room.

"I wish you were here when I tried on the dress. I couldn't tell if it

looked okay on me."

Ji Chu Hua spoke in an innocent voice. She looked like a shy girl wanting to impress her boyfriend.

When Gu Ting Fei heard her words, he let out a small laugh. He leans towards her and place a kiss on her cheek.

"Anything you wear will look good."

He moves away and looks around the room. The waiting area was luxurious, with mannequins adorned in different dresses and jewelry pieces.

An idea came to him, and he looked at the stunning woman sitting next to him.

"How about this? To make up for my absence, let me buy you new dresses. Any that you want."

Ji Chu Hua's eyes lit up with joy. However, she pretends to be a good girl and shakes her head.

"It's okay. I still have plenty of dresses from you at home."

Seeing her being so considerate, Gu Ting Fei was touched. He took her by the hand and stood up, bringing her along.

"Even if you have plenty, it doesn't hurt to have more."

He walked her out of the waiting room and headed for the sales floor.

Since it has been announced that they are in a relationship, he wants to spoil her to keep us his excellent image.

Ji Chu Hua stares at the man's back and smirks. Her innocent facade turns into one with guiltless intentions. She loves it when men spoil her and treat her like a treasure.

Minutes passed by, and Ji Chu Hua didn't hesitate to grab the dresses that caught her eyes. Of course, she didn't forget to look at Gu Ting Fei as if to get his approval.

"Miss Ji, your dress is ready."

The same employee returns with the news in the middle of their shopping.

She handed the ID card and receipt back to Ji Chu Hua but was baffled by the number of dresses in the man's hands.

"These dresses... Would you like to try them on?"

"No."

Gu Ting Fei answered without any hesitation. His eye glued to his woman then gradually shifts to the employee.

"I'll pay for all the dresses she has picked out today."

The employee was rendered speechless. Each dress was expensive, and only a few women in Imperial could purchase them. However, since this person is Ji Chu Hua and the man looks well off, she smiles in understanding.

"Alright. Please follow me to the register to pay."

Gu Ting Fei follows the woman, leaving an annoyed Ji Chu Hua. She wanted to buy more dresses, but she decided to let the matter go, not wanting to provoke Gu Ting Fei.

Once all the dresses were paid for and nicely put into shopping bags, the employee hands Ji Chu Hua's prepared dress to her.

"Miss Ji, thank you for visiting Blush Tree. Please visit again."

Ji Chu Hua doesn't say a word but smiles a smile that does not reach her eyes. She turns away and walks toward the exit.

However, she sees another employee carrying an Adriatic mist Rhonda Taffeta dress in the distance.

She remembers the dress to be one Yue Ling had tried on when they came across one another in the fitting room.

Her expression darkens when she also remembers the humiliation Yue Ling gave her that day.

Greedy with revenge, her grimace expression disappears, and she looks at Gu Ting Fei. She had reverted to a sweet and innocent woman.

"Brother Ting Fei, the bags look heavy. How about you go to the car first? I'll be right out."

Hearing her ingenuous words, he does as told after kissing her forehead.

"Don't take too long."

Ji Chu Hua's cheek turns red, and she nods her head. She watched him leave the store, and the moment he was out of her view, her expression was left with only hostility.

She turns to the employee and points in a specific direction.

"I want the dress your coworker is holding."

The employee was at a loss by Ji Chu Hua's sudden change in demeanor. She couldn't believe that the sweet woman seconds ago and this woman with a malevolence face was the same person.

However, considering the woman's words, she looks behind to where Ji Chu Hua was pointing.

When she saw the dress in question, her eyes quivered with hesitation.

She looks back at Ji Chu Hua and bows apologetically.

"My deepest apologies, Miss Ji. That dress has been reserved for another customer."

Ji Chu Hua's expression twisted with rage. How dare a lowly employee to disobey her order?

If it had been any other day, she would have lashed out irrationally at the employee. However, not wanting to alert the 'customer' mentioned, her mouth curls into a smile.

"I know the customer you are speaking of."

It was as if the malicious look on her face was never there, and her words continued.

"Han Yue Ling. She is the customer buying that dress, right?"

The employee stares at Ji Chu Hua with doubt, but when she heard Yue Ling's name, all the doubt in her dispersed. Her eyes lit up, and she sounded a thrilled chuckle.

"That's right. The dress is reserved for Miss Han. Are you an acquaintance of Miss Han?"

Ji Chu Hua kept a calm composure but was seething with annoyance inside. She could see the doubt on the employee's face then quickly change when she mentioned that slut's name.

She inhales a breath and forces herself to smile the best she can do.

"She is my cousin. I just remembered that she asked me to pick up the dress for her since she is busy."

Her smile arcs higher, and her pearl white teeth come into view.

"It'll be more convenient if I pass the dress to her."

Her words put the employee was put in a difficult position. She stares at Ji Chu Hua with doubt in her eyes again.

Even if Yue Ling and Ji Chu Hua are cousins, she cannot hand the dress over without identification.

Ji Chu Hua was quick to see through her thoughts. She sneers inside and takes out her phone.

"Since you don't believe me, I'll just give my cousin a call."

She presses a number and puts the phone next to her ear. She waited a few seconds, and when the line connected, she started talking.

"Ah, Yue Ling. It's me, Chu Hua. I'm at Blush Tree, but the employee won't give me your dress to bring to you. What should I do?"

She waits and listens as the person on the phone utters a few words.

"Okay. I'll do that."

Her eyes glance at the employee then she hangs up the phone.

"My cousin said she doesn't want the dress anymore. Since the service here is poor, she will go somewhere else."

The employee's eyes widen in shock. She couldn't process the situation, but her senses returned when Ji Chu Hua turned around.

She hesitated, then called out.

"Miss Ji, please wait a minute."

Ji Chu Hua stops in her tracks but doesn't turn around right away. One corner of her lip curls up into a malicious smirk before the other side joins in.

She turns to look at the employee, and a sweet smile appears on her face.

"Yes. What is it?"
