Pampered by My Ex's Cousin-Chapter 976 - 977: Buying Her a Store to Show Off (Part 2)

A ’bang’ sound, and the car door was closed.

Turning around, she put on a mask and sunglasses, and walked briskly towards the mall entrance.

Ji Chicheng’s gentle smile remained until Ji Anning entered the mall, and then it faded away.

He picked up his phone and dialed a number.

"Anning is at SU Mall. Bring a few people over and follow her discreetly."

...

It’s a weekday and not even ten o’clock yet; the mall has just opened, so there aren’t many people.

Ji Anning likes to shop from top to bottom, starting from the sporting goods section on the fifth floor, and browsing down one level at a time.

The fourth floor is the men’s clothing section. As she stepped off the escalator, there was a men’s shirt counter on the left, selling only shirts. Ji Anning was familiar with the brand because most of Ji Chicheng’s shirts came from there; he seemed to have a particular fondness for their shirts.

In the window display, two male mannequins were wearing white shirts.

With a glance, Ji Anning immediately thought of Ji Chicheng’s wardrobe full of white shirts. She walked over and stood outside, staring at one of them. The white shirt was especially bright under the lighting, and the most eye-catching feature was the buttons on the shirt.

Under the light, they gleamed, yet weren’t overtly flashy or loud—just a gentle shine that seemed quite elegant.

She couldn’t help but imagine Ji Chicheng wearing that shirt, leaning lazily against a tree trunk under lush green leaves.

That image...

As she was thinking, a shop assistant came out, "Miss, this shirt is a new summer style. Each button is made of natural white crystal, and it comes with two spare buttons. The fabric is different from other materials; it looks ordinary but you’ll know the difference once you touch it."

Saying this, she pointed inside and bowed slightly to Ji Anning, "You can come in and feel the fabric."

Ji Anning followed her inside, stood beside the mannequin, and touched the shirt. The texture indeed felt different, very cool. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

Earlier, the assistant had introduced the buttons to her, and she really liked them. They were noble and elegant, perfectly matching her uncle’s temperament.

"I’ll take one in size 44."

Ji Anning didn’t hesitate and immediately decided to buy it.

Just opening the store and making a sale made the assistant very happy. She nodded hastily, "Okay."

Then she went and took the shirt off the mannequin, smiling as she undressed it and said to Ji Anning, "The person you’re gifting this to has a great figure."

They specialize in men’s shirts, so they can immediately imagine a person’s physique just by knowing the shirt size.

Ji Anning was a bit embarrassed and lowered her head with a shy smile.

She still wore her sunglasses and mask, so the assistant didn’t recognize her.

After taking off the shirt from the mannequin, the assistant took it to the counter to process the order. Ji Anning followed and asked, "How much does this shirt cost?"

Only then did she think of this question; the shirt probably isn’t cheap, right?

The assistant replied, "It’s eighty-nine thousand. If you have our mall’s membership card, you can get a 2% discount."

Eighty-nine thousand... 98% discount... What’s the point? It’s still a lot of money, isn’t it?

Ji Anning was shocked by the price of eighty-nine thousand and didn’t speak for a while.

The assistant wasn’t sure if she still wanted it, "Miss? Is there a problem?"

"No... nothing." Ji Anning shook her head.

It’s so expensive, but she felt embarrassed to say no at this point, due to pride.

"I’ll wrap it up for you then."
