Chapter 4



Wen Nian pressed her palms together and closed her eyes with a smile. She silently made a simple wish that the entire family would be safe. She shouldn’t waste her precious wish on revenge.

Seeing Wen Nian blow out the candles, everyone took out their gifts.

Wen Yu gave her a bracelet that he was able to afford after working part-time for two months. Her parents gave her a pair of running shoes that cost more than 600 yuan. These were the branded sports shoes that Wen Nian had been thinking about for a year in her previous life. It wasn’t the style that she fancied. She valued the brand.

The other students in class would more or less have one or two branded shoes or clothes while Wen Nian had always been wearing cheap goods bought from the mall or the night market.

The rebelliousness of her adolescence and the inferiority complex brought about by her ordinary family background made Wen Nian yearn to enter the upper-class society. When she started high school, she slowly turned into a vain person.

Wen Nian put on the bracelet, but she didn’t touch the shoes. She smiled at her parents and said, “Thank you, Dad and Mom. You can return this pair of shoes. Because I wanted to compete with the others, I mentioned these shoes on a whim.”

Wen Nian’s realisation that she had inadvertently picked up this terrible habit surprised Wen Xing and Zhou Mei. They felt as though their daughter had suddenly grown up.

Zhou Mei reached out and touched the top of her daughter’s head. Her expression was glowing with adoration. “Since Dad and Mom had bought it, you can wear it. It’s good that you understand this principle. Dad and Mom can still afford a pair of shoes, but vanity will make people lose their sense of self. Let’s keep our feet on the ground and do everything well. Internal wealth is considerably more valuable than trying to beautify ourselves with material possessions we cannot afford.”

After hearing her mother’s honest remarks, Wen Nian realized how many life lessons she had missed in her previous life. She actually believed Huang Yue’s nonsense.

Wen Xing also looked at Wen Nian in relief. Although Wen Nian said that, his daughter had wanted to buy shoes for a long time after all. Wen Xing had the same thoughts as his wife. “Our Nian Nian has really become sensible this year. We’ve already bought these shoes. We won’t return them.”

A pair of shoes could cover half a month’s food expenses at home. In order to subsidize the family, her brother would work part-time on the weekends. At the end of the day, Wen Nian was the only freeloader in the family. After her rebirth, she did not want to spend her money on such meaningless bragging.

Wen Nian said firmly again, “Dad, Mom, I really don’t like these shoes. You can buy shoes with the style I like for a few dozen yuan. I said I liked these shoes because these were branded shoes.”

After uttering those words, Wen Nian rested her head on Zhou Mei’s shoulder. Observing the family sitting around the dining table orderly, she felt contented. With a smile, she proposed, “I have a great plan. Tomorrow is Saturday, why don’t we return the shoes together and visit the underground street of Ming Fang to pick a pair that I like? Sounds good, right?”

Wen Yu became excited upon hearing Wen Nian’s suggestion. “It’s been a while since our family went out together. Mom, Dad, can you see if you can ask your supervisor to extend your holiday until tomorrow.”

Wen Xing and Zhou Mei felt tempted. Wen Xing was a construction worker and Zhou Mei worked in a restaurant. They didn’t have a fixed holiday and they often had to work overtime on their days off to earn more money. They quickly discussed and made the decision to call their direct superiors and request a break for the next day.

Baisheng Mall.

Wen Xing said worriedly in the elevator, “I wonder if they will give us a refund.”

Their family had never bought anything in such a big mall. The couple’s current clothes were not as expensive as this pair of shoes. They could not help but feel a little nervous.

Wen Nian looked calm. “Let’s give it a try first. If it really doesn’t work, let’s see if they will accept the return on a 10% discount.”

Even if it was a 10% discount, they could still get about 600 yuan.

The four members of the Wen family came to the shoe shop to discuss with the store manager. As it was not a problem with the quality of the goods, the store manager did not want to refund at first, but he was persuaded by Wen Nian’s suggestion of a 10% discount.

After the shoes were returned, she would not have to return it to the warehouse. She could place them on the shoe rack and sell them at the original price, pocketing the 10% discount. In the end, both parties agreed to refund according to this method.

“Yo, you’re really poor. You bought it yesterday and returned it today. If you don’t have money, why are you here to spend money? If you have the time to waste, you might as well hurry up and move two more bricks to earn some money.”

Wen Nian turned around and saw a young girl who was as beautiful as the sun standing at the side and looking at her with disdain.

This was Wen Nian’s classmate, Jiang Ning. Beside Jiang Ning was Huang Yue, who was wearing a white dress.
