Seeing the woman get angry, Liu Shii hurriedly put on a servile smile, her voice carrying a hint of tremor and flattery: "Ms. Wu, that’s definitely not what I ant. I was just thinking if there might be so misunderstanding here?"
Wu Jingyi didn’t listen to her explanation at all, snorting heavily through her nose, a sound like a curse from the depths of Hell.
Her eyes glared like copper bells, full of fierce light, staring maliciously at Liu Shii, as if wanting to swallow her whole: "I don’t care how you ramble, this qipao issue happened in your lousy place, so you better compensate obediently! Stop wasting words in front of !"
"This qipao is made from top-grade materials, ticulously handcrafted by master craftsn. I spent a full two hundred thousand on it, and you must return every cent today!" As she spoke, she poked fiercely at the counter, each poke seemingly stabbing at Liu Shii’s heart.
Liu Shii’s face was full of nervousness, her forehead covered with beads of sweat, feeling like a lamb watched by a hungry wolf, completely at a loss.
Though her mind was clear like a mirror, knowing she was maliciously frad,
but Wu Jingyi before her ca on strong like a raging wave, with tangled influence in the area, like an invisible deadly net.
Liu Shii knew that if she truly offended her, the qipao store might beco a lone boat losing its course in a storm, with troubles pouring in like tides until completely subrged.
Thinking about these terrifying consequences, her face involuntarily showed a painful hesitation and profound helplessness. She bit her lower lip until it turned white, finally making a difficult decision, saying: "Miss Wu, I understand your feelings right now, but this really could be a misunderstanding."
"However, since you insist on compensation, then I... I can only accept and am willing to give out these two hundred thousand, just hoping this matter can end here."
Xu Wendong standing by heard Liu Shii’s words and furrowed his brows tightly, feeling a strong urge to speak out and stop her.
But when his gaze t Liu Shii’s eyes full of helplessness and plea, his heart was gripped by an invisible hand, swallowing back the words at the tip of his tongue.
He understood Liu Shii had her unspeakable concerns and worries, but watching her being blatantly extorted like this, his heart burned with rage, unable to swallow this bitter anger.
"Hmph, now that sounds more sensible! If you had understood this earlier, obediently listening, I wouldn’t have had to show you my prowess!" Wu Jingyi’s triumphant smile blood instantly, like a poisonous flower flourishing in a stinking swamp, exuding a nauseating scent.
Liu Shii could only bear the humiliation and anger within, her fingers trembling as she found Wu Jingyi’s contact on WeChat, transferring the two hundred thousand with a heavy heart.
Wu Jingyi saw the transfer notification, seeing the amount deposited comfortably into her account, her smugness flourished.
Her mouth slightly upturned with a contemptuous smile, confirming everything, she snorted heavily again: "Consider yourself perceptive."
"This ti, I’ll graciously let you go, but rember this well, if such a thing happens again, don’t bla for being ruthless and leaving you in a difficult situation!"
With that said, she moved away like a high-and-mighty peacock, swaggering off with malicious grace.
Liu Shii watched the woman’s retreating figure, her body uncontrollably trembling, like a withered leaf shivering in the autumn wind.
Her eyes welled up with tears of grievance, circling in her eyes yet stubbornly refusing to fall, accompanied by a deep unwillingness, as if silently crying out against the unfairness of the world.
Xu Wendong quickly stepped forward, gently hugging her with his warm embrace, trying to offer her comfort, softly asking in her ear: "Sister Shii, why did you compromise so easily?"
Liu Shii buried her face deeply in Xu Wendong’s embrace, her voice choking, as if every word was squeezed out from the depths of her heart: "Wendong, you have no idea, this woman is no pushover."
"It’s rumored she has so highly powerful figure backing her, such people, we simply cannot afford to offend."
"If she is truly offended, she could ruin the reputation I’ve built over years with a single word!"
"The two hundred thousand is considered spending money for peace, for disaster relief."
Hearing this, Xu Wendong disagreeably shook his head: "Sister, do you know what Taoist cultivators believe in?"
Liu Shii couldn’t help asking: "What?"
Xu Wendong looked at Wu Jingyi’s departing figure, a cold glint flashing in his eyes: "Enduring disturbance impedes cultivation, retreating compromises one’s dao, alternate inscription, fight if unsatisfied!"
"Uh..." Liu Shii was full of surprise, thinking Xu Wendong would say sothing profound and beyond her understanding.
But never expected.
It was this...
After recovering, she asked: "How do you plan to fight?"
"Shouldn’t that kind of woman be beneath your notice?"
Xu Wendong gave her a resentful look, annoyed: "What are you nonsense about? I’m not talking about fighting you!"
Pausing, he asked: "You ntioned the other side has a considerable background? Do you know her background and backing?"
Liu Shii thought for a mont, saying: "If I rember correctly, her boyfriend seems to be Ye Family’s Second Young Master, Ye Dong."
Xu Wendong furrowed his brows: "Which Ye Family?"
Liu Shii answered naturally: "Of course, it’s Qingyuan City’s number one wealthy family, Ye Family!"
"No way?" Xu Wendong was shocked: "If she’s truly the girlfriend of Ye Family’s Second Young Master, how could she be so despicable, extorting you for two hundred thousand cash?"
He’s had contact with the Ye Family, supposedly such a thing shouldn’t happen.
After all, Ye Family has assets worth nearly billions.
Liu Shii added: "She’s not Ye Family’s Second Young Master’s official girlfriend."
Xu Wendong understood, if she’s not the official girlfriend, it explains why Wu Jingyi extorted Liu Shii for two hundred thousand cash.
Thinking of this, his face showed a aningful smile: "Sister, don’t worry, watch how I deal with her!"
