191: Chapter 184: Must Compensate 191: Chapter 184: Must Compensate “I thank Young Master Su for…
for not taking my life!” Yu Shouli said gratefully, finally breathing a sigh of relief.
He had thought his end was certain, but to his surprise, he had truly snatched back his life.
“Young Master Su, I…” Liu Xinmin began hesitantly, wanting to say sothing, “I am a mber of the Liu Family…”
“A mber of the Liu Family?” Su Chen replied with a bitter smile, “Go back!
I understand Liu Tianxiong and Liu Buyu’s heartfelt thoughts.
Be more careful next ti!”
“Thank you, Young Master Su!” Liu Xinmin also finally relaxed, his forehead already drenched in sweat.
“Alright, now everyone leave!” Then, Su Chen waved his hand and said.
Soon, there was no outsider left in the Xue Family ho except for Su Chen.
“Su Chen, thank you, thank you, thank you…” Xue Liluo said gratefully, her beautiful eyes staying on Su Chen, deep within them was deep love and a touch of inferiority.
“It was nothing, just lending a hand!” Su Chen sat down on the sofa without any disdain, while Chen Cui and Xue Dashan were pleasantly surprised.
“For lunch…
can you stay and eat with us?” Xue Liluo mustered the courage to ask, her pure and beautiful face completely flushed.
“Of course!” Su Chen nodded.
“I’ll cook for you personally!” Xue Liluo said, sowhat excited, but her complexion flushed even deeper after speaking.
Xue Dashan and Chen Cui, seeing this, knew full well their daughter had given her heart to Su Chen.
Yet they both sighed a little, considering Su Chen’s background and connections were probably far beyond imagination, while their own family’s situation…
Would he even consider their daughter?
Thinking so, Xue Dashan and Chen Cui felt so self-reproach.
If their inadequate conditions hindered their daughter, it would be a trendous fault.
Su Chen’s gaze slightly paused, as he too seed montarily lost.
Xue Liluo was already extrely beautiful, and her blush made her indescribably lovely.
Realizing his reaction, Su Chen felt a bit embarrassed, coughed, and changed the subject: “I’ll accompany you to buy groceries, okay?”
Xue Liluo was delighted, feeling an indescribable sweetness in her heart.
Just as she was about to say sothing, at that mont.
Her phone rang.
She took out her phone subconsciously and answered the call.
Su Chen noticed that Xue Liluo’s phone was an old-fashioned flip phone, which made him feel a pang of distress.
What a good girl she is!
he thought.
If another girl as beautiful as she were in a family with poor conditions, she might have sought out a wealthy suitor by now.
But Xue Liluo steadfastly held her ground, never selling out love for money.
This kind of self-respect and self-love was extrely rare in this society.
“Manager Yang…” After connecting the call, Xue Liluo spoke softly.
“Xue Liluo, get to the store now!!!
It’s very busy today, and we’re short-handed!” On the phone was a woman’s voice that sounded rather harsh.
“Ah?
But today I…
it’s my day off!” Xue Liluo’s voice beca even softer.
Owing to her family’s poverty, she had a part-ti job.
With a good appearance and temperant, she had successfully been hired as a sales associate at a high-end jewelry store.
Working two days a week, her part-ti wages were not high, but they covered her tuition and living expenses and even allowed her to contribute occasionally to her family’s inco.
She was happy and contented, at least earning a bit more than she used to from part-ti work at KFC and McDonald’s.
The caller was Yang Yiqing, the manager of the high-end Hess Jewelry Store where she worked.
“If I tell you to co, then co.
What the hell is all this nonsense about?
Do you even want to keep your job anymore?
I’m telling you, Xue Liluo, if you don’t co today, don’t bother coming back at all.
You really don’t know what’s good for you.
There are plenty of people who want this job!” On the phone, Yang Yiqing’s voice had risen quite a bit.
“This…” Xue Liluo hesitated and beca anxious.
Normally, she would’ve gone to keep her job, but today, with Su Chen here, she had just said she would cook for him.
“Go ahead!
I’ll co with you!” Su Chen suddenly said, frowning slightly and looking uncomfortable.
With his acute hearing, he obviously caught the manager’s tone and even the curse words…
“Then…
I’ll go right now!” Xue Liluo agreed.
“You have half an hour.
If you’re even a minute late, forget about this month’s salary!” The manager snorted on the phone and then hung up.
“Su Chen, I…
I’m sorry…” Having put away her phone, Xue Liluo bit her lip slightly, looking at Su Chen, her voice filled with gloom and apology, then she lowered her head again.
“It’s alright, let’s just go out to eat!” Su Chen said with a smile.
Half an hour later.
The taxi stopped at the base of the World Trade Plaza building in Chengfeng City.
World Trade Plaza, one of the largest comrcial buildings in Chengfeng City, was on a similar scale to Xinfeng Tiandi, the comrcial CBD owned by the Xiao Family, specializing in luxury brands and international designer labels.
Xue Liluo worked at Hess Jewelry Store, a world-renowned jewelry brand.
Hess Jewelry was located on the first level.
Su Chen and Xue Liluo quickly walked into the World Trade Plaza, and soon they were at the entrance of Hess Jewelry.
The store’s interior indeed boasted a very high-class decor, with a color sche of black, white, and silver, complented by premium flooring.
Inside, it shimred with luster, many beautiful pieces of jewelry on display.
The clientele was indeed substantial.
Six or seven sales associates smiled as they introduced the jewelry to the wealthy ladies.
Upon seeing Xue Liluo, a middle-aged woman in the store quickly approached her and gave Xue Liluo a once-over, “Can’t you be quicker?
What are you, a turtle?
Did you crawl here?
Don’t you see how many custors there are?”
Then, the middle-aged woman turned to Su Chen, “And who is he?”
“My…
My friend!” Xue Liluo longed to say Su Chen was her boyfriend, but she knew she wasn’t worthy…
“Friend?
Hmph!
Wait outside!
Hess Jewelry Store is not a place just anyone can enter!” The middle-aged woman disdainfully scanned Su Chen from head to toe and sneered.
Xue Liluo was sowhat reluctant, but before she could say anything, Su Chen simply smiled, “You go ahead with your work!
I’ll wait for you outside!”
“But…”
“Listen to !” Su Chen smiled and patted Xue Liluo’s shoulder.
Xue Liluo could only nod.
Su Chen stood outside the jewelry store, watching as Xue Liluo joined the workforce, his eyes flickering slightly, evidently lost in thought.
Although he hadn’t entered the store directly, standing outside allowed Su Chen to clearly see and hear everything.
At this mont,
The client Xue Liluo was serving was a woman in her thirties.
The woman was rather attractive, but Su Chen didn’t like the aura she exuded very much, mainly because she wore too much jewelry and accessories.
A man in his forties, adorned in designer clothes, exuding the air of a nouveau riche, stood beside the woman, head held high with confidence.
Xue Liluo was professionally introducing a bracelet to the woman, setting aside her troubles and discomfort, as her job demanded a smile.
Su Chen saw this and admired the strong girl even more.
However, his brow soon furrowed.
Because he heard the woman in her thirties exclaid, “You worthless girl, you’ve spilled coffee on !!!
This dress is from Dolce & Gabbana, worth tens of thousands for just one piece.
Can you afford that?
What are you going to do about it?”
Following the woman’s outcry, all the sales associates and custors in the entire store turned their eyes towards her and Xue Liluo.
At that mont, Xue Liluo instinctively raised her hand, picked up a tissue, and started to wipe the coffee off the woman.
But unexpectedly…
The woman abruptly raised her hand and fiercely slapped away Xue Liluo’s hand, “Get your filthy hands off !
What are you wiping?
Clothes like this can’t be cleaned with a tissue, they require special care.
Did you co from a farm?
Do you understand luxury goods at all?
Have you heard of the brand Dolce & Gabbana?
You poverty-stricken fool!”
“I’m…
I’m so sorry!” Xue Liluo’s face turned slightly pale, overwheld by the situation.
Truth be told, she felt wronged because it was the woman herself who had knocked over the coffee.
As a luxury store, custors were offered coffee upon entry, and the woman had taken a sip before setting it aside.
Xue Liluo previously wanted to clear away the coffee for the client to prevent any accidental spills on the clothes but was rebuffed with the remark, ‘Can’t afford a cup of coffee?’
Hence, Xue Liluo had no choice but to introduce the bracelet without removing the coffee beforehand.
Then, just now, the woman accidentally knocked over the coffee herself, yet fully blad Xue Liluo, naturally causing her to feel aggrieved.
But, despite her grievance, Xue Liluo didn’t talk back even when she was scolded.
Because the custor is king.
Such was the code!
This was the number one rule for sales associates.
“What good is sorry?
Compensate !!!” The woman in her thirties raised her hand, pointing at Xue Liluo, “A penny less, and I won’t let you off…”
“My apologies, this beautiful lady, our sales associate is a newcor and doesn’t know anything, that’s why…” Manager Yang Yiqing ca over, offering a sycophantic and fawning explanation…
Only to be cut off by the woman, with a voice growing louder and saliva flying, she practically jabbed her finger into Xue Liluo’s face, “A newcor?
Knowing she’s new, why the hell did you assign her as a sales associate?
Deliberately trying to trick , are you?
Let tell you, I’m a Diamond mber at your store, spending hundreds of thousands a year!
If you don’t give an explanation today, I’ll smash up your store!
And this stupid sales associate, she’s pissed off, not only must she pay up, but she must also be fired; no one can save her!”
“Yes, yes, of course…” Hearing the ntion of a Diamond mber, Yang Yiqing’s expression changed and she quickly agreed, then turned to Xue Liluo, snarling with a ferocious expression, “Why haven’t you imdiately apologized to the client?!
A serious apology?
Bowing deeply?
Wretched girl!
Why don’t you go die?”
While cursing, Yang Yiqing was about to lift her hand and land a slap on Xue Liluo’s face.
At the sa second,
Su Chen appeared out of nowhere beside Xue Liluo, raising his hand and grabbing Yang Yiqing’s wrist, blocking the slap that would have hit Xue Liluo’s face.
