Chapter 621: Yin Meng
Xu Mumu thought every outfit looked nice, and with a wave of her hand, she bought everything she had her eye on.
The store owner was thrilled to have such a generous customer. Xu Mumu bought so much that the owner promised to deliver everything to her place.
After browsing the children’s clothing store, the little kid couldn’t resist stopping at a barbecue stall.
Xu Mumu took him in for a bite, but she dared not let him eat too much.
"Mom, I want more." After eating a chicken wing, his mouth was covered in oil. Xu Mumu carefully wiped it for him. The little kid looked expectantly at Xu Mumu, wanting more.
"No more for now. It’s time for us to go back, or else Daddy won’t be able to find us when he returns," Xu Mumu said with a smile, not planning to give him more. Eating too many snacks would spoil his appetite for meals.
The little kid pouted, filled with dissatisfaction.
However, he obediently followed Xu Mumu, deciding to save some room for other delicious foods later.
This city is by the sea, so Xu Mumu bought a lot of local specialties and had them sent directly to her home.
The purchases included many dried fish and sea vegetables like kelp, which looked quite good.
"Mom, the teddy bear, the toy." The little kid’s eyes lit up when he saw a toy store.
"Do you want it?" Xu Mumu asked with a smile. The teddy bear was indeed quite cute — the little kid has good taste.
"I want it, I want it," the little kid said eagerly, bright-eyed, pulling Xu Mumu towards the store.
Xu Mumu took Doudou inside. The little store was doing quite well. It had many toys, and many people were shopping there with their children.
"Little one, what toy do you like?" The store owner approached and looked at the cute little child Xu Mumu was holding.
Since she ran a toy store, she naturally loved children. She had never seen such an adorable child before.
"I want that one," the little kid said fearlessly, pointing to the teddy bear he had spotted outside.
The teddy bear was light blue, very cute, placed right in the center of the store.
"This one?" The owner pointed to the teddy bear in the center. It was the most expensive item in her stock and indeed the best-looking. Since it was placed there, many people had inquired about it, but the price deterred them.
"Yes, how much is it?" Xu Mumu asked with a smile. The toy’s prominent position showed it wasn’t cheap, but she didn’t mind the cost.
"It’s over fifty dollars; it wasn’t cheap to procure," the owner replied somewhat awkwardly. It really wasn’t inexpensive, with the fifty-plus dollars just barely covering the shipping and earning a small profit.
"Wrap it up," Xu Mumu said calmly. She didn’t think it was expensive; the toys Yin Yang bought for the little one were even pricier.
"Really want to buy it?" The owner was taken aback, not expecting Xu Mumu to actually make the purchase. She glanced at Xu Mumu’s attire, which was clearly not cheap.
"Of course, my child likes it," Xu Mumu said with a smile.
After Xu Mumu paid, the owner was still somewhat in disbelief.
With the toy in hand, the little one was brimming with joy as they left the store.
Xu Mumu glanced at her wristwatch; it was time to head back.
She held the little one’s hand as they walked toward the hotel area, which was bustling with activity.
"I told you, I want the top floor. Kick the folks out; that’s the Yin Family’s territory," a woman said arrogantly, looking at the manager, Wang Lin.
"Miss Meng, I’m sorry, but the top floor is reserved for the Family Head’s residence, not for you," Wang Lin replied seriously.
"I’m the Family Head’s sister," Yin Meng said arrogantly, upset by the uncooperative person in front of her.
"Sorry, Miss Meng, you don’t have the right to stay on the top floor," Wang Lin’s expression turned cold. Yin Meng was just an illegitimate child, yet she dared to claim to be the Family Head’s sister. Who gave her the audacity?
"This is the Yin Family’s property; what right do you have to speak to me like this?" Yin Meng was furious. Her friends watching made it even more embarrassing for her.
"Mengmeng, didn’t you say this hotel was yours?" the girl beside Yin Meng asked, surprised, trying to gently persuade her.
However, instead of calming her, the words further infuriated Yin Meng.
"Hurry up, I want the top floor," Yin Meng demanded angrily from Wang Lin.
Unfortunately, Wang Lin had stopped paying attention to Yin Meng by then. He noticed Xu Mumu and Doudou approaching.
"Madam, young master, you’re back. Let me help you with your things," Wang Lin said attentively to the mother and son.
"Go ahead, take them to the top floor," Xu Mumu nodded, glancing at the young lady not far away. The girl appeared 18 or 19 years old and was quite pretty, but her arrogant demeanor was rather unpleasant.
Based on her earlier words, Xu Mumu had guessed some of her identity. Yin Yang’s family had a slew of illegitimate sons and daughters. Over the years, she only knew about Yin Jiu and Yin Xu, and she hadn’t met the others, unexpectedly meeting one today.
This one was likely another illegitimate daughter from the Yin Family, but she couldn’t see the situation clearly.
Yin Meng also spotted Xu Mumu and Doudou, her eyes locking onto them fiercely.
Despite knowing that Yin Yang had married, the children of the Yin Family, including Yin Meng, had never openly acknowledged Xu Mumu, except for a few key family members.
After Yin Yang took control of the Yin Family, all those illegitimate children were expelled from the family.
Previously, Yin Meng knew the Yin Family had some business in this area, so she and her mother occasionally caused a stir here, managing to gain some benefits.
Moreover, she gained quite a few benefits through her status as a Yin Family child, and her mother’s business prospered significantly in recent years.
"What lady?" Yin Meng looked at Xu Mumu coldly. Had it not been for Yin Yang, they wouldn’t have fallen to this state. Although sharing the same father, Yin Yang inherited all the Yin Family while they got nothing.
Looking at Xu Mumu, Yin Meng’s malicious thoughts arose, fueled by jealousy. If this mother and son weren’t around, without an heir, the Yin Family shares might fall into her hands or at least some benefits could be her share.
"This is the Lady of the Family and the young master. Miss Meng, if you wish to stay at the inn, I can arrange it for you. The Family Head is currently residing on the top floor," Wang Lin said calmly.
