"Why do you care so much about ? I said I want them, so pack everything up for , listen to . Don’t forget, you’re here shopping with because you volunteered. Otherwise, it would’ve been my cousin accompanying today. My cousin isn’t as stingy as you; she’s very generous to . If she finds out you used her money but didn’t get anything, what would she think of you?" Tang Zhongwei snorted coldly at Yu Xia and said.
Yu Xia started staring at Tang Zhongwei without saying anything again.
"So do you still want these things?" Salesperson A asked.
"Yes, of course, I want them. Why wouldn’t I?" Tang Zhongwei imdiately replied reflexively.
"Oh, which upstart family are you from? You look like soone who’s never seen the world, like a nouveau riche. It’s truly laughable." A sharp female voice rang out.
Tang Zhongwei imdiately looked in the direction of the voice.
"Who are you? How I spend my money is none of your business! What, just because I have money, I can’t spend it? If you’re jealous, just say so! Maybe if I’m feeling generous, I could even gift you a few bags."
Tang Zhongwei was already simring with anger towards Yu Xia, with no outlet to vent. Then soone decided to co and confront her, how could Tang Zhongwei let them off easily?
Every word she spoke was full of sarcasm, stabbing like a needle.
"If you dare, say what you just said again." The woman pointed at Tang Zhongwei’s nose with her long nails and said.
"What if I say it ten more tis? What if I say if you can’t afford it, just beg . If it makes happy, I might just give you so bags. It’s not like I’m short of money." Tang Zhongwei said nonchalantly.
"Do you know who I am, to dare talk to like that? Believe it or not, I’ll tear your mouth apart." The woman stepped forward, waving her hand threateningly.
Tang Zhongwei looked at Yu Xia with so hesitation.
"We don’t know who you are?" Yu Xia tilted her head and asked with a puzzled expression.
"You’re not even qualified to know my identity. While I can still control my temper, apologize to quickly. Otherwise, you won’t like the consequences of offending ." The woman snorted coldly.
"How do you want us to apologize?" Yu Xia asked.
"You’ve made my mood terrible just now. If you want to apologize, naturally you have to make happy again. How about this, I won’t make it hard for you. If you crawl around the store like a dog on your knees, I’ll forgive you." The woman pointed at Tang Zhongwei.
Although Tang Zhongwei was afraid of offending so bigwig, it didn’t an she would let herself be humiliated out of fear.
Even Yu Xia frowned at the woman’s words.
"This thing wasn’t our fault initially. We only reacted appropriately. If there’s to be an apology, it should be mutual, not just one-sided. We were also happy while shopping, but your presence made us unhappy. So by your logic, you should also entertain us first. Once you’re done, we’ll do ours." Yu Xia said with a smile.
"What did you just say? Repeat it if you dare." The woman, as if not hearing Yu Xia correctly, dug her ear incredulously.
"Since you asked, I’ll say it again. If you insist we crawl like dogs around the store, then please do it first. After all, you started this. If not for you, how could we have offended you?" Yu Xia’s smile never wavered.
Tang Zhongwei moved subtly behind Yu Xia. At that mont, she strangely felt a sense of safety from Yu Xia.
This made her feel both embarrassed and reassured.
"You must be crazy to say such a thing." The woman looked at Yu Xia’s face, laughing angrily at her words.
"I’m Feng Yiweng’s friend." The woman said loudly.
"Feng Yiweng? Who’s that?" Yu Xia’s confusion deepened.
Yu Xia hadn’t attended the banquet and had no idea of Miss Feng’s real na, but to the woman’s ears, this was blatant provocation and disdain.
"Are you truly clueless, or are you pretending? If you don’t even know Miss Feng, how do you get around in Shangjing? Must be just a money-spending upstart with no real depth. Did your family make money from mining or winning the lottery? Spending so recklessly, do you have enough in your bank account?" the woman continued, initially angry but soon with a smug expression.
When the woman ntioned Feng Yiweng, neither of them knew who she was talking about. But when Miss Feng was ntioned, an image from last night imdiately ca to mind.
"You two know each other? No wonder you both have the sa annoying aura; truly stink attracts stink!" Tang Zhongwei raised her voice and said.
"Do you even know who I’m talking about? Do you realize what you’re saying?" the woman asked, seeing Tang Zhongwei’s defiant attitude.
"Of course I know what I’m saying. That woman you ntioned was pestering at our doorstep yesterday, begging to co in. It took forever before she left; we couldn’t even shoo her away." Tang Zhongwei, unaware of the intricacies, only thought about her own satisfaction.
After all, they didn’t know her, and she was just a nobody. She ca to Shangjing to make her fortune and would leave when she got enough. Any trouble wouldn’t reach her.
Tang Zhongwei’s scheming was perfect, and she tid it well.
Yu Xia ignored Tang Zhongwei’s plotting and instead tried to judge whether this person could indeed be offended.
But now it seed clear: Tang Zhongwei had already decided for her, and she had no choice but to follow through. She couldn’t backtrack and disgrace herself.
After all, she was now representing not just herself but the face of the Xu Family too.
"What nonsense are you spouting? Yiwen would never do such a thing." The woman sneered, clearly not believing what Tang Zhongwei said.
At this point, there was no room for reconciliation. Yu Xia beca serious, though her naturally pitiful face made her seriousness seem more like she was being bullied.
"If you don’t believe it, you can verify with Miss Feng, or investigate it to see if we’re telling the truth. After all, this kind of thing can’t be lied about, right?" Yu Xia countered.
