Capítulo 1142: Chapter 908: Take Your Filthy Hands Off!
The Seventh Princess’s beautiful eyes closely observed herself in the mirror as the sales assistant respectfully left with the credit card.
You should know, the number of young talents from the Imperial City that she’s stylishly rejected could almost fill a street.
Hmm?
Suddenly, Ying Lin frowned slightly, very satisfied with her outfit.
But…
The girl lifted her delicate ivory-white wrist and blinked; it seemed like she was missing some accessories.
“Miss, your credit card.” The sales assistant beside her respectfully handed the card over. Despite the major profits going to the store and brand, her personal commission from this sale was about 30,000.
For those in poverty, this was enough for a family to cover their living expenses for a year.
But for her, the young girl before her with lively eyes was clearly her patron. Flattering such a patron would never go wrong.
“Which floor are the accessories sold on?”
Ying Lin casually took the card, tossed it into her handbag, and turned to ask.
“The ninth floor.” For some reason, at that moment, the sales assistant felt a sense of being favored, as if faced with a daughter from a prestigious family, the moment she heard this question.
“Very good, thank you.”
The girl nodded in satisfaction and swung her handbag gracefully as she left.
The sales assistant was stunned for a few seconds, then quickly called out:
“Miss, you forgot to take the clothes you replaced.”
“Leave them.”
Ying Lin waved her hand without looking back.
The sales assistant’s eyes flashed with astonishment, then revealed a glint of envy.
The replaced outfit, even with her trained eye, seemed worth tens of thousands—pieces from Muze luxury ready-to-wear that looked like they hadn’t been worn more than three times. And she didn’t want them anymore.
When would she ever live such a life?
However, neither the sales assistant nor the departing Seventh Princess noticed an unobtrusive gaze quietly retracting from the nearby lounge area.
A young man, dressed in a slim-fitting suit with unbuttoned coat, sat quietly in the rest area near the store, took out a tablet, and his fingers flew over it.
“Spending power assessment — High, non-civilian, risk rating increased by 1.5 points, pending further observation.”
“Mole 3032 requests to query target [Ji Ying]’s property credit status in her home territory of Wuleng Star, review direct relatives’ property status as well as her recent three-month consumption capability status.”
“Mole 3033, you’re responsible for the 9th floor, meet up in fifteen minutes.”
Three seconds later, two light grey words appeared on the tablet — [Received].
The young man showed a satisfied expression, lifted the nearby mug and sipped the complimentary artisanal coffee, then continued to operate the tablet in peace.
At first glance, there was no security measure involved.
To the moles, real investigations are always discovered in real life. Only when they truly blend into society will they become invisible.
This is the basic quality of a member of the [Underground Mole] intelligence network.
However, at times, unforeseen circumstances, beyond these so-called all-seeing moles, occur.
A young man in a Dingchuan Academy uniform was standing at the entrance plaza of the Clarissa Center, looking up at this magnificent building.
The luxurious hotel of the Hinchlo Business Alliance on Yunmei Star, opulence itself, failed to outshine the magnificent edifice before him.
“Truly deserving of Capital Star.”
Mu Fan exclaimed with admiration.
“Welcome, most esteemed guest of the Clarissa!”
Two rows of graceful hostess elegantly bowed, showing no trace of disdain for Mu Fan’s attire.
Mu Fan touched his nose, briefly stunned, then smiled and nodded at them, walking in with calm composure.
Having experienced many wonders, Mu Fan was no longer the young man who used to be easily astonished by a simple meal.
This time, Mu Fan had a clear goal, the shopping center — the ninth floor.
Mu Fan wasn’t without purpose, recalling that Nuonuo seldom wore accessories; when she looked at him with laughter, her clean, fair wrist and neck were bare.
“I should gift her a necklace.”
Mu Fan’s eyes were resolute.
…
“Miss, this is a special peacock crystal from seventy light-years beyond the Outer Domain Galaxy, symbolizing prosperity. It’s a handcrafted masterpiece by Capital Star’s renowned Master Moro. Only nine such rings were made, and this is the seventh ring you’ve spotted.”
Hmm?
Ying Lin’s eyes lit up instantly, and a look of delight flashed across her previously yawning, uninterested face.
“This is the one, it’s meant for me.”
The seventh ring, of course, should be worn by her. Who else in the Galaxy could match it better?
[Though you’re somewhat cheap, now you are the most noble.]
Admiring the exquisite ring on her right index finger, Ying Lin paid no mind to the 1.7 million Star Coins she had just spent.
“Picking out the next necklace must be more careful, after all, a man notices a woman’s central area at first glance, and wrapped in clothing, the necklace’s role is particularly vital then.”
She looked down at her proud B-Cup+ height, thankful it wasn’t a flat ‘airport.’
The girl proudly lifted her head and marched onward.
“This is the Love Sand necklace, meticulously crafted over three years…”
“This is Begonia Rain…”
“This…”
The ninth floor—home of various luxury brands, where every necklace carried countless heart-touching stories narrated by the sales assistant.
But Ying Lin, after looking at this and that, always felt like those necklaces, though beautiful, didn’t quite match her at a glance.
For this princess’s first offensive, it must be a hit at first sight.
“No need to explain, I’ll have a closer look myself.”
Casually interrupting the salesgirl, Ying Lin wandered around with no particular aim.
If something catches her eye at the end, that’s the one.
After walking dozens of steps, just as she was about to retract her inner promise, the Seventh Princess’s eyes suddenly brightened.
Hmm?
In her view, a row of crystal-clear crystal boxes lay quietly on that red silk cloth, with the pure white flawless lighting making these crystal boxes exceptionally dazzling.
Among them, the third crystal box from the left held a transparent necklace with a faint starry blue luster, instantly catching her attention. Compared to the previous necklaces, this necklace possessed a unique tenderness, understated yet captivating.
“How beautiful.”
Women have an innate weakness for shiny, beautiful ornaments.
In that moment, a voice shouted loudly in Ying Lin’s heart:
[That’s the one!]
[It must have been waiting for this princess.]
Ying Lin’s steps immediately filled with strength as she walked briskly forward.
However, as soon as she turned the corner, standing three meters from the crystal box, a slender hand covered it, accompanied by a gentle voice:
“This is it, how much?”
The Seventh Princess’s eyes were filled with rage, and she shouted:
“Get your filthy hand off!”
