Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation
Zhou Cuian didnt want Ye Lengan to witness such an embarra.s.sing situation. However, given the current circ.u.mstances, she had no other choice.
Ye Lengan strolled into the luxury store and glanced at Zhou Cuian, curiously asking, What are you doing here?
It wasnt that she looked down on Zhou Cuian, but regardless of appearances, Zhou Cuian didnt seem capable of affording anything here.
Her question was straightforward, devoid of emotion. But to Zhou Cuian, it felt like mockery, intensifying her embarra.s.sment. Her eyes reddened, and she couldnt help but feel a tinge of resentment towards Ye Lengan.
Why cant I be here? Zhou Cuians emotions seemed to spiral out of control. Her tone turned brash. Are you the only one allowed to shop here? Am I not worthy enough?
Ye Lengan wasnt nave. She sensed Zhou Cuians animosity. Frowning, she clarified, Thats not what I meant. Zhou Cuian, I havent wronged you, so theres no need to be so agitated. If you dont want to see me, I can leave now.
She wasnt one to tolerate nonsense. Plus, her relations.h.i.+p with Zhou Cuian was merely that of roommates; they werent close. If Zhou Cuian hadnt asked her earlier, she wouldnt have come here at all.
She owed Zhou Cuian nothing, so there was no reason to endure her anger.
Dont go!
Seeing Ye Lengan about to leave in anger, Zhou Cuian panicked. She stepped forward, attempting to stop Ye Lengan.
But Ye Lengan evaded Zhou Cuians grasp.
Zhou Cuian withdrew her hand, feeling frustrated. Lengan, Im sorry. My tone was harsh earlier, but I didnt mean to. Its just that this matter got me anxious, and I spoke without thinking!
She didnt approve of Ye Lengans actions but had no choice but to swallow her pride. Besides Ye Lengan, there was no one to help her now.
Reluctantly, she had to yield to Ye Lengan
Dont dwell on the past. You must take responsibility for this! The salesperson directed a stern gaze at Zhou Cuian. You dirtied this gown, so you must purchase it.
Though speaking to Zhou Cuian, the salespersons eyes involuntarily drifted towards Ye Lengan.
Having worked in the luxury store for so long, the salesperson had sharp eyes. Hence, it was natural for her to notice that the elegant girl who entered later, despite her understated attire, was adorned from head to toe in haute couture, even sporting a multimillion-yuan watch on her wrist. Such an individual would undoubtedly be capable of footing the bill for this gown.
It didnt matter who paid; they needed to resolve the issue. The gown was now unsellable due to the stains Zhou Cuian caused. Someone had to take responsibility.
What happened? Ye Lengan frowned, unaware of the situation
Zhou Cuian felt embarra.s.sed, not wanting to answer. She didnt want Ye Lengan to see her as a laughingstock.
The salesperson, however, had no such reservations and explained the situation.
After finis.h.i.+ng her explanation, the salesperson wore a look of distress. We really cant just let this slide. This gown is our latest seasons flags.h.i.+p item, and in the entire capital, were the only store with it. But when this young lady tried it on, she somehow got foundation smudged over it. We cant sell it like this. So, she must purchase this dress.
This is not my fault at all! Zhou Cuian instinctively defended herself. Clearly, you were the one who urged me to try it on in the first place. And while I was trying it on, you didnt remind me to be careful, nor did you advise me to take any preventive measures! And now youre s.h.i.+fting all the blame onto me. Why?
Seeing Zhou Cuian attempting to s.h.i.+ft the blame onto herself, the salesperson became agitated and quickly retorted, How can you say that? Its clearly your own negligence. What does it have to do with me? Nothing like this has ever happened in our store before!
The implication was clear: anyone capable of shopping in this store would know this.
Zhou Cuians face darkened upon hearing the salespersons mocking tone. However, before she could respond, the salesperson interrupted her, Regardless, youre the one who dirtied the gown, so you must take responsibility. Otherwise, well have to call the police!
At the mention of calling the police, Zhou Cuians expression turned sour. She had no intention of continuing the argument with the salesperson. Instead, she turned to Ye Lengan with a pleading tone, Lengan, please help me!
Deep down, she knew that if this escalated to the police, it wouldnt end well for her. Ultimately, she would have to compensate the store for its losses.
After hearing the explanation, Ye Lengan furrowed her brows. How can I help you?
The situation was murky. But Zhou Cuian had dirtied the gown, so the salespersons demand was reasonable
However, Ye Lengan was curious. Why had Zhou Cuian suddenly appeared in this luxury store, trying on gowns?
Zhou Cuian hesitated, unsure how to respond to Ye Lengans question.
She a.s.sumed Ye Lengan would understand her intentions by now.
With Ye Lengans wealth, buying the gown would resolve the issue. So why the need for further inquiry?
