Chapter 386: Come home with me
"The person has been found. Sorry for the trouble, thank you."
After maintaining her composure and politely thanking the staff, Shen Ci turned around and headed toward the underground garage while frantically calling He He Suisui on video.
And after she left, the two airport staff members who had just helped couldn't help but look at each other, then raised their eyebrows and shook their heads with a smile, as if they had already had a hunch about this matter.
He He Suisui still refused to answer the video call. Shen Ci returned to the car, pressed the voice button, and sent her a message: "He He Suisui, tell me exactly where you are right now. If you don't answer my call again, I'm calling the police!"
Her cousin knew she had a police officer boyfriend, but Shen Ci wouldn't actually call the police; she was just trying to scare her.
After waiting a few seconds, she called her cousin via voice call again. This time, after ringing a few times, the other side finally answered.
"Sister..."
He He Suisui's voice sounded cautiously, revealing a clear sense of guilt.
Shen Ci's anger flared up. She scolded into the phone: "Do you want to die? Didn't I say I would come pick you up? You didn't send a single message after landing and ran off with someone else? You have friends you know in Longcheng?"
"It's not like that, Sister. Don't worry, I'm very safe." He He Suisui dodged the question, not daring to face Shen Ci directly at all.
Shen Ci couldn't be bothered to argue with her at this moment. She had to see her cousin immediately and bring her home.
If something happened to her in Longcheng, she wouldn't be able to answer to her aunt.
"Where are you? Give me the address, I'm coming to get you!"
"I..." He He Suisui dawdled and refused to say, clearly not wanting Shen Ci to come find her.
Shen Ci's patience ran out. She asked sternly: "Hurry up. If I don't see you in half an hour, don't ever call me sister again!"
"Alright, Sister, don't be angry. I'll send it to you."
Seeming to feel her cousin's level of anger, He He Suisui didn't dare to actually disappear. After hanging up, she obediently sent the address to Shen Ci.
By this time, more than two hours had passed since the plane landed. Shen Ci almost cursed out loud when she saw the address her cousin sent her.
This girl was actually already at the Longcheng International Trade SKP Mall.
And this mall was one of the top high-end malls in the country. How could her cousin, a flight attendant who had just started her internship, be here?
After calming down, a bad premonition rose in Shen Ci's heart, and she quickly drove there.
On the way, her mother also sent a message asking: "A-Ci, did you pick up He He Suisui? Why haven't you come back after so long?"
Shen Ci could only make up a lie to brush it off. Shen Jingjing just urged her to come back quickly, saying dinner was already made.
With her foot on the gas, Shen Ci rushed to the mall at top speed.
At the "Chanel" store, the moment Shen Ci walked in, she saw He He Suisui sitting on the sofa enjoying service. She was even still wearing her flight attendant uniform.
"Miss, are you comfortable with this size? If you feel it's a bit tight, we have a half-size larger."
The sales clerk's kneeling service satisfied He He Suisui's vanity like never before. She nodded with feigned indifference: "It fits quite well."
At this moment, a man standing behind the sofa spoke lightly: "If you like it, just take this pair."
Hearing this, He He Suisui looked at the man with joy, but didn't want her peripheral vision to catch Shen Ci walking into the store with a face full of anger.
She was so scared she quickly stood up: "Sister."
Shen Ci saw her at a glance, and when she saw the expensive high heels she was wearing, her gaze darkened.
She knew the situation at her aunt's house all too well. The first thing He He Suisui did after landing was to run here to spend money? This was simply unbelievable.
It wasn't until the man followed He He Suisui's gaze and looked over that his eyes went straight the moment he saw Shen Ci.
Even though Shen Ci was only dressed in simple casual wear today, she was strikingly beautiful, and the entire room of Chanel products paled in comparison.
He gave a crooked smile and asked: "Your sister?"
He He Suisui nodded gently. Because of her guilt, her expression was nothing but timid after Shen Ci appeared.
Shen Ci walked up close and saw bags and clothes on the sofa, and a pair of shoes on He He Suisui's feet. It was clear she had tried them all on.
She was angry, but she knew she couldn't lose her temper with her cousin in this setting. She just said calmly: "Come home with me."
"Sister..."
He He Suisui was a bit reluctant; she was about to get these shoes.
"Don't be in a hurry, Miss. I'm He He Suisui's friend. She's in Longcheng for the first time, so I'm giving her a gift."
That man had been completely hooked by Shen Ci. He also knew that for such a young girl with no social experience, the power of money was the greatest. So he said triumphantly: "Since you're He He Suisui's sister, let's do it together. See if there's anything you like, and I'll pay for it all."
Shen Ci looked at the man expressionlessly. He looked decent, but his words were oily and glib. How could this be a good person?
But it was precisely such people who were most likely to succeed with young, inexperienced girls, especially those who were vain and easily hooked.
Shen Ci didn't want to waste a single word on such a person. She just looked at He He Suisui and warned: "Don't make me lose my temper with you here. Come home with me now."
He He Suisui was still somewhat afraid of Shen Ci. Although the sisters weren't far apart in age, Shen Ci had always been the one who had the final say among the siblings since they were young, and everyone listened to her.
Plus, the current Shen Ci had a very powerful aura, much scarier than when she was a child.
"Alright."
He He Suisui sat back on the sofa slowly. The sales clerk was confused and didn't know what had happened, but still wanted to take the initiative to help her take off the shoes.
He He Suisui shook her head: "I'll do it myself."
"Eh? Don't, don't take them off. Don't you like them? Just buy them." The man saw this and said quickly, still trying to prove his strength by paying the bill.
Just at this moment, the sales clerk from this store walked out from the inside and saw her at a glance.
"Ms. Shen? Why are you here?"
The clerk greeted her enthusiastically with surprise and joy. Shen Ci was his supreme client, and the amount she spent each time made his commission soar.
"Why didn't you tell me in advance? Are you just passing by, or are you here for a style you like? The VIP room is just empty. I'll take you there to rest first. Would you like me to prepare an afternoon tea for you?"
The clerk's enthusiastic, fawning service stunned He He Suisui, who hadn't seen much of the world. She had only seen such bootlicking scenes in those TV dramas.
Is it this exaggerated in reality too?
That man was also stunned. VIP room? Wasn't that a privilege only for those whose cumulative annual consumption exceeded a "million"?
Looking at the jeans and white top Shen Ci was wearing today, one couldn't tell she had such strength at all.
And Shen Ci had just seen the reluctant expression on He He Suisui's face when she took off those shoes. Since her own sales clerk happened to be there, she pointed casually at the various items on the sofa: "Wrap these up, and these shoes too."
