Chapter 222: Chapter 222 Xiao Family’s Little Princess"Whether you’re a shopper or not, whether you go shopping or not, I don’t care, but..." Cheng Lingdang hummed with extreme disdain, "You’ve offended my eyes with your ugliness! Pay up." Having said that, she extended a pair of clean hands, truly making a gesture as if demanding money. Shi Yiqing was dumbfounded. Pay money? For what? How could Cheng Lingdang have the nerve to ask for such a thing? No matter how puzzled Shi Yiqing was, no matter how much she complained, Cheng Lingdang had the nerve. If Shi Yiqing didn’t make a move, her hand could stay extended in midair indefinitely. Just as they were about to reach a stalemate, a close friend by Shi Yiqing’s side couldn’t help but speak up, "Hey, who are you? On what grounds do you ask our Qingqing to give you money?" "On the grounds that she’s offended my eyes with her ugliness." Cheng Lingdang asserted confidently. Shi Yiqing was furious, "Have you no shame?" "Shame? What is that? I don’t want it!" "You—shameless!!" Shi Yiqing’s face was a portrait of disgust, yet Cheng Lingdang remained nonchalant. She just stood there with her arms outstretched, exhibiting the determination of someone who would not give up until she got the money. The friend went straight to pull on Shi Yiqing’s hand, "Qingqing, let’s just leave, don’t stoop to her level. By the looks of it, she must be not quite right in the head." "Not quite right in the head?" Shi Yiqing scoffed, in full agreement, "Definitely brain-damaged; otherwise, she wouldn’t be like this." seaʀᴄh thё Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Having said their piece, they were ready to leave. Cheng Lingdang, clad in a chocolate cake princess dress, stood her ground, "You better make things clear to me, what do you mean by saying I’m not right in the head, that I’m brain-damaged?" "You can’t handle the truth that you’re brain-damaged, is that it? What kind of logic is that." "You—" Cheng Lingdang pointed at Shi Yiqing, "You think you’re so sharp-tongued, don’t you? No problem, but let me advise you, don’t bother buying a gown anymore, you’re not getting into the Xiao Family!" Upon hearing the first part, Shi Yiqing still looked disdainful. When she heard the latter part, her expression changed abruptly. "The Xiao Family?" She looked on guard, "How do you know I’m buying a gown to go to the Xiao Family event?" Cheng Lingdang rolled her eyes, "In Mingzhu City recently, what else could be the talk of the town other than the Xiao Family event? Don’t tell me... you didn’t even manage to get an invite? If that’s the case, forget I said anything." Shi Yiqing snorted haughtily, "Who says I didn’t get an invite? I have one!" Her friend was also full of pride, "Exactly, our Qingqing has an invite. Do you think everyone is like you, unable to get even a single invitation?" "Pssh," she scoffed, her gaze falling upon Cheng Lingdang’s chocolate princess dress with disdain, "How old are you, not even knowing how to wear a proper dress, really thinking you’re some kind of princess?" Shi Yiqing’s face also showed agreement. Cheng Lingdang had no intention of indulging them, and immediately retorted, "Whether I see myself as a princess is my business. However... considering how foul-mouthed you both are, I can give you some unfortunate news." "I, Cheng Lingdang, am the Xiao Family’s princess!" As she spoke, she proudly patted her chest. Hearing this, Shi Yiqing and her friend burst into raucous laughter. "You? The Xiao Family’s princess? Why don’t you just say you’re the United Nations Queen while you’re at it?" "Even if you’re bluffing, you should still think it through. Doesn’t everyone know that the Xiao Family’s current generation consists only of males and doesn’t have any girls?" Listening to their well-reasoned analysis, Cheng Lingdang was somewhat speechless. "So you think you’re smart, you think you’re the famous detectives who even know whether the Xiao Family has a girl in this generation. Unfortunately, I’ve got some bad news for you, your intelligence is wrong." "Indeed, the Xiao Family doesn’t have a girl in this generation, but there was one in the previous generation." "Unfortunately, that woman happens to be my mother." As Cheng Lingdang spoke, she toyed with her twin ponytails, "Rare things are more precious. I have many brothers, but no sisters, so... I am the real little princess in the Xiao Family!" She spoke distinctly, and Shi Yiqing’s complexion had already changed. She had long heard that Cheng Lingdang’s family had a background. To her surprise, her background was the Xiao Family! If she had known Cheng Lingdang was backed by the Xiao Family, she would have definitely made a good relationship with her from the start, instead of ending up like this. The atmosphere was so tense, yet Shi Yiqing was filled with regret. Cheng Lingdang looked at Shi Yiqing’s expression and curled her lips disdainfully, "What, now you regret it? Now you know you shouldn’t have offended me?" "Oh dear, tell me, why do people only think of repenting after they’ve made a mistake? Isn’t it better to avoid the mistake in the first place?" As she spoke, she mockingly asked Shi Yiqing, "Miss Shi, don’t you think I’m right?" Shi Yiqing cursed her to her heart’s content internally, but she dared not show the slightest hint of dissatisfaction. She could only force a smile in agreement to her deliberate question, "Miss Cheng is right." After speaking, she closed her eyes in humiliation. Cheng Lingdang hummed lightly, "The most important thing for a person is to have self-awareness. You only received an invitation today, and the person by my side, she follows me and enjoys VIP treatment." "The supreme VIP luxury, do you have it?" With that, she stopped looking at Shi Yiqing’s expression and pulled Shi Yaoguang to check out. After checking out and packing up the clothes, Cheng Lingdang approached Shi Yaoguang with a face seeking praise. "Brother Shi, how was my performance just now? Wasn’t it impressive?" Shi Yaoguang thought for a moment, then nodded, "It was indeed impressive." Cheng Lingdang snorted, "Let me tell you, I’ve got strong fighting power. That idiot Shi Yiqing still wants to compete with me? She’s too green!" Unlike Cheng Lingdang and Shi Yaoguang who left happily, Shi Yiqing watched their silhouettes with a belly full of anger. "What does Cheng Lingdang mean? What’s she trying to imply?" Shi Yiqing vented her frustration by aggressively stomping on the floor tiles beneath her feet. The young companion looked timidly at her behavior. She and Shi Yiqing were not from the same social circle to begin with, and it was even less likely for her to come into contact with Cheng Lingdang. If she had known Cheng Lingdang had such a power behind her, she wouldn’t have tried to stand out so boldly. Now, without a clear understanding of the situation, she truly worried she might be the target of retribution. As she was struggling with whether to find an excuse to escape, an employee of the store approached. In her hands, she held a pink evening gown. "Miss, here’s the dress you were interested in. Would you like to try it on?" Shi Yiqing, in a bad mood, declined without hesitation, "No need, I’m not interested." "You’re not?" The employee looked confused, "But that young lady said this was the one you had your eye on." "Just now?" Shi Yiqing frowned, "Who said that?"
