Chapter 1164: Chapter 1164: Talking Back
When She came out again, all the personnel except those who stayed behind to wrap things up had already gathered.
Jiang Peiqin saw Xinyan coming out, waved to her and said, "Over here, over here."
The team leader asked the staff and knew everyone was present: "Everyone must pay attention to safety during the trip and return to the designated place at the designated time."
For safety reasons, this time they were transported uniformly to the shopping location, and the car would be parked not far away; as long as they returned to the car at the designated time, it would be fine.
Xinyan got on the car and sat down, then reached into her bag and absorbed all the money into the space, as she didn’t want to be distracted worrying about the money while shopping.
The team leader didn’t idle on the car; he introduced the shopping street they were going to visit and repeatedly explained the precautions to everyone before stopping.
Once at the shopping venue, Jiang Peiqin and Xinyan parted ways with the group since they had lots to buy, and too many people would be inconvenient.
Jiang Peiqin looked at the goods in the store window, her eyes filled with curiosity and wonder.
Xinyan was fine; after all, she had lived until the turn of the millennium in her past life. By then, the country was different from now, and she had seen the prosperity of the later years.
Jiang Peiqin had quite a bit of money on hand, so she didn’t hold back while shopping.
In her last life, Xinyan had been thrifty all her life, so after being reborn, she never deprived herself, especially since her mom arranged for someone to send such a large sum.
After a round of shopping, she bought quite a few items for her and He Jinxuan that could be used for their wedding.
As for relatives and friends, besides food and clothes, she also bought several brooches, perfumes, ties, razors, and watches. Since there were many family members, dividing it up wasn’t a big deal.
Of course, she wouldn’t forget her dear little brother; she bought quite a few educational toys and clothes, and she indeed missed the little guy.
With most items purchased, they happened to arrive at the bag store, which finally liberated the two of them.
Xinyan directly bought two large suitcases, just enough to pack those things in, while Jiang Peiqin bought one and still carried a small bag in her hand.
The two checked the time; it seemed about right, so they bought some local snacks and walked to the parking area.
As soon as they appeared, someone sarcastically commented, "Really living like capitalists."
Xinyan didn’t want to indulge her and straightforwardly retorted, "Whether it’s envy or jealousy, keeping it in your heart is one thing. Saying it out loud like this only makes you a laughingstock."
The person was about to respond but saw a team member also returning with a large suitcase.
She opened and closed her mouth several times without saying a word, her eyes red with anger.
Xinyan ignored her and politely asked the driver, "Driver, would you please open the trunk for us?"
Seeing their suitcases, the staff chuckled and asked, "How many people did you buy things for?"
Xinyan and Jiang Peiqin exchanged a glance and instantly made up their minds.
Xinyan vaguely replied, "We got a lot for people. It’s an opportunity that’s hard to come by."
As for what others thought, they couldn’t care less.

In Beijing, He Jinxuan calculated the timing of Xinyan’s return to the Capital.
A few days ago, he had taken a long-distance assignment, and after today, he could return to Beijing.
The apprentice sitting in the co-driver’s seat next door noticed his good mood, "Master, did something good happen? Share it with me so I can join in the cheer!"
Just in time for a turn, He Jinxuan deftly maneuvered, "You’re just a kid; even if I told you, you wouldn’t understand."
