Chapter 564: An Encounter With Bai Youran (3)
The salesperson hurriedly introduced her to other items after seeing that she was so generous with money.
“Young comrade, I still have a very beautiful blanket in a bright red shade. The colour is especially pretty. Using this for a wedding would definitely give the person face. Take a look.”
As she spoke, she carried out an exceptionally bright red blanket which made Gu Qingyao's eyes light up.
This was indeed a gorgeous item. The color was even and bright and the material was excellent.
“This…”
“I want this blanket.”
Gu Qingyao was about to speak but was interrupted by someone behind her.
She paused. This voice was too familiar. Even if she had not heard it in the two years that she was reborn, she still remembered it.
Bai Youran!
The malicious woman who coveted Brother Beihan and killed her.
Gu Qingyao's expression darkened immediately.
Behind her, Bai Youran was dressed in a woolen coat and wearing a pair of leather shoes. She walked over swiftly, and her eyes were filled with delight as she looked at the red blanket on the counter.
She stared at the dazzling red blanket with bright eyes and stretched her hand out to touch it. The material was very soft and comfortable.
“I want this blanket. Do you still have other designs?”
Bai Youran was evidently very satisfied with this blanket and even seemed to be unsatisfied not to have one of it.
The salesperson looked at Gu Qingyao awkwardly. However, she recognized Bai Youran – the daughter of the Bai family and a regular of the department store.
The salesperson's smile deepened to curry favor. “There are other designs, but they are not as good-looking as this piece. This is the latest arrival which came yesterday. It's the best and the most expensive one.”
As she spoke, she took out other blankets. There were red and pink. The quality was indeed not as good as the first one, and the colors were dimmer – these were simply incomparable to the first one.
Bai Youran took a glance at those, and her eyes continued to linger on the blanket in her hand.
“Those are not nice. I'll just take this! How much is it?”
The salesperson's face was filled with joy. “300 yuan!”
The smile on Bai Youran's face froze. There was another young lady beside her, and she looked about the same age as Bai Youran. Gu Qingyao recognized her too. It was Ye Yihong, Bai Youran's top-rank follower.
In order to curry favor with Bai Youran in the previous lifetime, that woman often mocked and made cutting remarks about Gu Qingyao with considerable effort.
Hearing that it was three hundred yuan, Ye Yihong cried out in surprise immediately, “300 yuan? So expensive?”
This was an extremely top-grade woolen blanket. The color was bright and gorgeous thus it was naturally exorbitant.
In this era, 300 yuan was comparable to luxury items. Even watches were not as pricey as this.
The sum of ordinary big four items for marriage might not even add up to this price.
The salesperson explained with a smile. Ye Yihong looked at Bai Youran and said, “Youran…”
Three hundred yuan was still not a small amount to a pampered young lady like Bai Youran. She came out especially to shop today and brought sufficient money. Moreover, she just received an allowance from her parents yesterday and adding her savings, she only had a total of 270 yuan.
Bai Youran was reluctant to let go of such a festive and beautiful blanket. After thinking for a while, she gritted her teeth and said, “Honghong, I did not bring enough money. Lend me thirty yuan. I will return to you when I'm home.”
Ye Yihong was not as wealthy as Bai Youran, but she also brought money as she was going shopping with Bai Youran. But…
She only had 30 yuan, and it was only after saving up for a long time!
