Mrs Gu laughed lightly. What was she supposed to say. Xiao Ai had used her money to buy a gift for her.
"No I don't. Thank you." Mrs Gu proceeded to leave but Xiao Ai held her back.
She gave her account details and looked expectant. Seeing that Mrs Gu didn't get it, she added.
"Am quite expensive to hire. I even ran an errand for you. It's only normal that you pay me well. Don't you think?"
Mrs Gu was surprised as she stared at the beautiful lady. " Didn't you buy this from my card?"
Xiao Ai raised the bags." this..this is just free clothes that I got from you. You still need to pay me..come.on. Beautiful women like you shouldn't be petty."
Mrs Gu sighed and sent Xiao Ai ten million.
Seeing the amount, Xiao IA tried to suppress herself. "Thank you..thank.you thank you.. now I can return my Hubby's card in peace. I feel like am taking advantage of him...sigh..Thank you very much." Then she hopped out.
"Little Ai..."Mrs Gu called and Xiao Ai was a bit surprised.
Hehehe..when did they become so close?
"Thank you. " she sincerely said.
Xiao Ai felt slightly embarrassed and awkward. She had shamelessly swindled this woman. Could it be she couldn't tell that she had conned her?
"Hmmm..you are welcome and Madam..."
"Yes..."
"Don't crush on me again please. I know. I know. I am so beautiful, you must have fallen in love at first sight. You are very beautiful yourself but I have a husband now....so...you should not grow any romantic feelings for me." Then she quickly left.
Mrs Gu was quite surprised. She puffed her cheeks and fanned her face which had turned red.

Ridiculous. So shameless. So interesting.
What a daughter in law she had!
Crush on her? She was being nice because she truly liked her and Xiao Ai interpreted that she liked her in a romantic way.
How embarrassing.
It seems Bolin was right about his sister in law being very very shameless and ridiculous. She had a knack for making people feel embarrassed.
Mrs Gu stepped out of the Ladies and was about to leave when she noticed a huge cardboard.
Reading the words on it, she became even more embarrassed.
No wonder, there was no one coming in.
This Xiao Ai was something else.
She had better wait until she officially meets her tonight.
Mrs Gu couldn't help but smile thinking about how Xiao Ais face would look tonight.
After they were done shopping, they went to an ice cream shop on the third floor.
Xiao Ai was about to roast Lifen when she noticed that everyone looked shocked.
"What's going on? Why is everyone having that expression?" Xiao Ai asked scooping her ice cream.
Jenny gave her phone to Xiao Ai." It's the recent serial killing. There has been another killing. Two consecutive ones again."
Xiao Ai checked the article and sighed. "I thought the police were handling this? Hey..Lifen...the first body is near our hospital. Will we be implicated? And the other....32 street H district. That's very close to Gu building."
Jenny took her phone and sighed. Lifen seemed to be thinking about something.
"It's impossible to have carried the murder out at the same time." Lifen asked.
Xiao Ai agreed and brought out a small book and pen. She drafted something on it and spoke. " Although Care Medical centre is close to Gu Building it's in the opposite direction and at least two streets away. Gu Building is in H district and Care Medical Centre is in G district. The serial killer seemed to have paused for a while. It's been over two weeks since there was a killing now. If we add up the time there was a killing with this....there's two weeks interval. This case started three months ago. Within the span of three months, there's been six killings. All men in their middle twenties and early thirties."

Lifen looked through the sketch Xiao Ai had made. " I have been following the news. The first was around F district and E district. The last was in the gents of H mall. Now it's around, Care Medical Centre and Gu building. If we add this all up, the killer makes a move around E and H districts which Is both close to care Medical Centre and Gu Building and close to H mall, which we are in. If the killer has intervals of two weeks and has killed for three months now, he or she will be agitated around this time. After all there will be a huge event in the country soon and there will be lots of people walking around at night."
"Which means there would be lots of victims for the killer to pick. If the assumption is right then the intervals will reduce very much, since the killer will be agitated by the number of people." Xiao Ai finished.
Jenny stared at Xiao Ai and Lifen and suddenly felt excited. Her sisters were so cool.
