Chapter 64: A Strange Female Client



Chapter 64: A Strange Female Client

Id done Yin Xinyue a great favor with the murderous ancient paintings case. 

It made her more dependent on me, and almost every day, shed come to visit me at my antique shop. 

Sometimes, shed help me clean the shop or wash my clothes. In my heart, I had a feeling that we were living together. 

I was reluctant, indeed, since I didnt know what she liked in me. 

Yin Xinyue, apparently, understood Li Mazis thoughts. However, she showed no interest in him. 

But, since Li Mazi had just rescued her, whether shed done it deliberately or not, she often introduced Li Mazi to a few of her girl friends.

Actually, except for his age, his slightly despicable character, and his son, he wasnt a bad man. Wasnt it true that the cute uncle was a trend now? Li Mazi belonged to this category. He got money and he put on airs. He was also considerate, and he had a straight but humorous character. He could talk well with girls ten years younger than him. 

Honestly, if we could match Li Mazi and help him rebuild his family, I thought it would be pretty good. 

The other night, I sat in my antique shop like usual, listening to the radio and watching the sky with my mind blank. 

All of a sudden, I thought about the man wearing the Kumamon t-shirt. I wondered where he was. Although wed cooperated on multiple occasions, he was still a riddle to me. He was a tricky riddle that I couldnt reason or solve. 

Overthinking things gave me a headache. Determinedly, I came inside and turned on my computer to download a movie. 

While I was watching with gusto, a woman walked into my shop. She was wearing a sexy, hot pink skirt that shrouded her round buttocks, revealing her long, fair legs. As she was walking on a pair of high heels, she was around a head taller than me. 

She was truly stunning! 

Although she wasnt as beautiful as Yin Xinyue, her attractiveness to men was much stronger than Yin Xinyues. 

My first impression was that she was a prostitute or something.

But, I still asked, Good evening, are you here to sell antiques? 

No, no. The woman shook her head. She seated herself in front of me and looked around, her face panic-stricken. I didnt know what she was looking for. 

After checking around, she exhaled then said, I want to ask something. Do you know Yin Xinyue?

I nodded, I know her. What about her?

Are you in a relationship with Yin Xinyue? asked the woman. 

My heart jolted once as I looked at her in confusion. What? Who are you?

The woman smiled. No, nothing. Then, she reached out and touched my clothes, even lifting my sleeve for a closer inspection. Next, she reached into my pocket and pulled out my phone. 

I didnt know if I should laugh or cry. What was this woman doing? 

I immediately asked, Hey, hey, big sister, what are you doing?

I didnt expect that me addressing her as big sister would enrage her. You blind bat, what did you call me? Do I look older than Yin Xinyue? You shouldnt address a lady like that! 

I was perplexed and I couldnt understand the situation. What kind of mental disease did this woman have? 

I couldnt do anything but explain it to her, Its just a polite way to address someone.

Cut it out. She rolled her eyes at me. I get it now. Youre nothing more than a poor guy. Well, Yin Xinyue spoke highly of you, as though you were the rich son of a wealthy family. However, youre clearly inferior to my boyfriend! Your fashion sense is terrible, and you dont even wear a watch. Theres nothing luxurious in your shop. You use a Xiaomi phone. You have no taste. I knew it. How could Yin Xinyue have a better boyfriend than me 

I was suddenly enlightened, I really was. This woman had come to my shop, at night, just to feel superior. These kinds of arrogant, self-centered women were really annoying. 

However, I wasnt enraged as I considered that she was just a patient with mental illness. I think youve found the wrong person. Im just a friend of Yin Xinyues. We dont have that sort of deep relationship.

Really? She instantly cheered up. Instinctively, she rubbed the golden necklace on her neck, gently stroking it. So, its just Yin Xinyues one-sided love. Haha, even you, a poor man, doesnt like Yin Xinyue. How could she be proud and fancy in front of me?

Then, she turned around and left. 

As I watched her leave, I didnt know whether to laugh or cry. Id just met someone that really liked to show off! Anyhow, I didnt actually take the matter seriously. 

The next day, when Yin Xinyue came over, I found that she had a bad expression on her face. She looked like shed just had a fight with someone as her eyes were red. 

I asked her, What happened? Did you quarrel with someone?

Yin Xinyue sighed. I dont know what to tell you. Currently, I have a strange client. That client is extremely jealous, and she wants to compete with me over everything. She doesnt spare anything, and I just quarreled with her. This sort of idiot is really hard to serve.

I burst out laughing. I already know your new client.

Yin Xinyue was surprised. How do you know that client? 

I simply and frankly told her what had happened last night. 

After listening to me, Yin Xinyues beautiful face blushed. How dare that woman come here and make a mess? I do respect her boldness though!

I hurriedly advised Yin Xinyue to not lose her temper. Women all have jealousy. But, some of them have reached a realm of their own. Just ignore her and youll be fine, okay?

After I tried my best to calm and comfort her, Yin Xinyue felt better and let her anger drain away.

However, it was just temporary. During the next several days, every time Yin Xinyue visited my shop, shed come with a lot of hatred. I looked at her pale face due to her indignance, and I knew that the problem was that strange client again. 

I didnt have any other solutions but to stay by Yin Xinyues side to be her aide. 

However, while listening to Yin Xinyue describing the situation, even me, the psychologist, didnt know if I should laugh or cry. 

That client of hers was extremely jealous. She constantly thought that she had to have better things than Yin Xinyue. 

For example, several days ago, she saw Yin Xinyues bracelet. At first, she mocked and ridiculed Yin Xinyues bracelet for a long time. However, the next day, she bought a bracelet exactly the same as Yin Xinyues. 

Moreover, when she saw Yin Xinyues bag, she examined it thoroughly before coming to a conclusion that Yin Xinyues bag was a counterfeit, which I, her poor boyfriend, had bought for her from some cheap shop on the streets. Despite that, the next day, shed be using a bag identical to the one Yin Xinyue had. 

And, as long as a man came to talk to Yin Xinyue, shed be so jealous she could die. Normally, shed come and intervene, trying to seize the mans attention. Many times now, shed purposely embarrassed Yin Xinyue, making her lose her face in front of her friends. 

Yin Xinyue was really worried that one day, that womans enthusiasm and interest in me would grow. If that happened, shed think that I wasnt a bad boyfriend. Then, shed try to claim me. 

I couldnt help but guffaw, thinking that the womans envy had reached a morbid level. 

I hurriedly comforted Yin Xinyue, telling her not to worry as I was poor, and shed seen me and had shown no interest. 

However, I didnt expect that the woman was really sick. Tonight, just after Yin Xinyue had left, she came to my shop. 

She was proactively trying to befriend me. Her speech was ambiguous and her limbs moved provokingly, asking me if I wanted to be with her. 

I couldnt help but laugh. I didnt expect that shed even envy Yin Xinyue for having a poor man like me. 

I smiled as I said, I have a girlfriend already. So, sorry, but I cant be with you.

After hearing my denial, she began her storm out. Hmph, you mean Yin Xinyue? Im pissed off. What do I have that isnt as good as hers? Why you love her, but not me? My body isnt sexy enough? Arent I more beautiful than her? Im richer than her and my profile is better than hers. What do you value in her?

I told her, You look more beautiful than her and your body is sexier than her, but youre not my taste. I like types like Yin Xinyue.

Nonsense! I didnt know what provoked her. She just jumped around and cursed me loudly. 

While scolding me, one of her hands rubbed her golden necklace as if it could give her a boost. Do you think that Im so noble you could never reach my level? You dont need to worry. I know you desire me.

I took a deep breath, feeling highly insulted. I was generally a calm person, but I couldnt put up with this woman, let alone Yin Xinyue! 

Should I help Yin Xinyue correct this womans behaviour? I ignored the woman and let myself be immersed in my heavy thoughts. 

You think youre nobler than me? What are you? Youre just a worker for some boss, right? Im the boss myself. I dont need to see my boss face every day! I said. 

Youre talking nonsense! Her head rose, determination visible in her eyes. Who told you that Im just a worker? Im a boss myself. However, my company hasnt been transferred to me yet. My boyfriend told me that as soon as we get married, his company will belong to me. Hmph!

I couldnt help but laugh. Is your boyfriend really rich? Do you believe that I have an item here that not even your boyfriend can afford it?
