Chapter 75

"Achoo!"

In a fashionable shop, Li Huanle had already sneezed twice in a row.

"Isn't it already getting warmer? I can't be unlucky enough to catch a cold now, can I?" Li Huanle touched his nose, feeling somewhat annoyed.

After wandering around the store for a while, Li Huanle left the shop. He thought for a moment and decided to just buy some jewelry or something.

Walking into a jewelry store on the first floor, a girl in her early twenties, dressed like a salesperson with a pure appearance, politely greeted him: "Hello, sir. May I help you with anything?"

Li Huanle suddenly froze, staring straight at the girl...

The girl looked at the man with some confusion, seeing him staring at her chest without restraint, her face immediately turned cold.

But Li Huanle was truly wronged. At this moment, his gaze had a quality of not seeing things as they were. When he saw this girl, she seemed familiar, and he quickly searched his memory. Unfortunately, the otaku had too few memories of faces, which was really a big problem.

Without any clues, Li Huanle really couldn't figure out who this girl was. Of course, she could just be an ordinary person.

"Whatever, why think so much? Even if she really is a future celebrity, she doesn't seem to have debuted yet!"

Li Huanle shook his head and gave up on the idea of investigating. He had many people in his memory, and he couldn't possibly go around befriending and building relationships with all of them. In Li Huanle's view, if he were to build a relationship, it would at least have to be with a top-tier star.

As for the unknown girl in front of him, forget it.

However, when Li Huanle came to his senses, he noticed the girl's wary and annoyed gaze, and she had already taken several steps back.

Li Huanle realized his gaze was a bit strange, and his face turned slightly awkward. He then smiled and said, "I'd like to look at a platinum necklace, a mid-range one. Can you introduce me to some options?"

Although the girl was very annoyed with this pervert, she didn't want to cause trouble and forced a smile, "Sure, please come this way!"

Li Huanle dryly laughed and followed the girl to the counter, then started selecting under her introduction.

Soon, Li Huanle chose a platinum pendant, but the pendant was quite funny, shaped like a circle with a design similar to a hexagram.

Anyway, he decided on this gift. As for whether Jiang Minjing would like it, Li Huanle didn't really care. On the contrary, he was quite looking forward to Jiang Minjing's reaction.

"Full payment is 9.8% off, and if you pay by credit card installment, it's the full price. This necklace costs 2.7 million won!"

Li Huanle nodded and replied, "I'll pay in full. Can you also wrap it for me?"

"Sure, please wait a moment!"

Watching the girl walk to the other side, Li Huanle looked around the store out of boredom. But when his gaze fell on the door, he suddenly froze. Seeing the figure that had just disappeared from his sight, Li Huanle's face suddenly showed intense anger, and he immediately rushed out.

The girl, who had just taken out new merchandise to let Li Huanle inspect, was stunned by the man's sudden sprint out. Her mind was full of question marks. But she quickly came to her senses, looked at the counter, and found nothing wrong. Was that guy just messing around?

...

"Damn! How did she disappear so quickly? Did I see wrong?"

Running to the mall entrance, Li Huanle looked at the slightly crowded crowd, cursing in anger. Although he couldn't be sure it was that girl, that brief glimpse made Li Huanle instinctively feel it was her, so he rushed out to see if it was really her.

It was the girl he had saved from the Southern Cave Gang's hands and who then disappeared. Although so many years had passed, Li Huanle had never forgotten the girl's appearance under the streetlight.

There might have been many changes, after all, a girl can change a lot, but Li Huanle was confident he could recognize her.

Li Huanle wasn't infatuated at first sight. If he really saw that girl again, he would definitely give her a big slap.

Why did Li Huanle remember her so vividly? It wasn't because he was arrested by the police and sent to Lingnan University.

It was because the car accident involving the Jang Dong-yoon couple happened on their way back from Lingnan University to Seoul. In Li Huanle's view, if it weren't for that girl, he might not have ended up going to Lingnan University, and at the very least, there would have been room for negotiation.

Not going to Lingnan University would have meant no car accident. No matter how restrained and rational Li Huanle was, he still blamed some of the reasons on that girl.

So, after the car accident, Li Huanle often thought about the girl's appearance. He didn't plan to do anything to her, but if he really met her, he would definitely give her a big slap, as a way to repay her debt to him. Perhaps this would make him feel better.

Whether it was an illusion or just a trick of the eye, Li Huanle didn't find the figure that had flashed by in the mall hall when he reached the entrance.

"o(︶︿︶)o Sigh!"

Sighing helplessly, Li Huanle turned back into the mall, thinking about whether he could ever deliver that big slap.

...

"Damn Xia Rong, who told you to run around everywhere? Didn't I tell you to follow Onee-san?"

"Alright, Pumei, Xia Rong didn't do it on purpose!"

"Sorry, Chulung Onee-san, Pumei Onee-san!"

In a clothing store on the first floor to the right, three girls were gathered together, talking.

The reality was that Xia Rong had gotten lost, and the other two had searched for a long time before finding her in this store, so one of them was very angry.

The other one felt helpless. Although Xia Rong was still young, she wasn't a little girl of seven or eight. How could she get lost so easily? Thinking about how fast someone had been moving just now, she almost couldn't keep up.

All three girls were very pretty, with long black straight hair, looking like three sisters. Of course, appearances weren't mass-produced, and each had their own unique features.

After the youngest and tallest Xia Rong apologized, Pumei's expression improved a lot. The three girls looked at the time, and Chulung said, "It's about time. We should go to the company!"

"So soon? It's a hard-earned weekend!"

"It's okay. We can come out again next time. Let's go, Xia Rong. Don't be mad at Pumei Onee-san. She was just worried about you!"

"I know, Onee-san!"

The three girls held hands, talking as they walked out of the mall and then took a bus at the bus stop outside.

...

"Please come again!"

The girl in the jewelry store, seeing the annoying and strange pervert leave with the gift box, felt a bit relieved.

Thinking about it, if someone you don't know stares at your chest as soon as they see you, it would be strange if you didn't give them a good scolding.

"Even though he looks quite handsome, how could he be such a person? Hmm... Could he be in that kind of business?" The girl looked at the man's departing back, tilting her head and maliciously guessing.
