Perhaps, because it was already pretty late, Pei Ge and Qin Qitong were the only customers in the Chanel store.
Even the salesclerks in the enormous shop were few.
“Sister Pei Ge, how is this piece? Doesn’t it look pretty good?” Qin Qitong picked up a warm pink floral dress and looked expectantly at her.
“It does look pretty good, but isn’t it a little too big for you?” While she agreed that the Autumn wear looked nice, she thought its size was too big for Qin Qitong’s petite body.
“Sister Pei Ge, please try this on for me!” She innocently blinked her eyes as she said this to Pei Ge with a smile.
“Huh? I try it for you?” Confused, she looked at Qin Qitong oddly.
“Yes! I have a cousin whose figure is similar to yours. I want to buy some clothes for her!” Qin Qitong nodded in convincing way.
Believing her reason, she nodded her head in agreement. “Alright, then.”
Only when she picked up the dress that she realized that its size was just right for her.
Filled with confusion, she entered the fitting room.
Qin Qitong started checking the other clothes as she waited for Pei Ge to come out.
“Hm? Miss Qin? Why are you here?’ Just as she selected some clothes, a female voice sounded.
She looked up in puzzlement, and a person she did not like entered her vision.
“It’s you.” Qin Qitong snorted at the woman who had appeared before her.
The person was none other than Liu Yue, who had fled pathetically back then.
“How coincidental, Miss Qin. Are you here to buy clothes? Do you need my assistance?” Liu Yue smiled and actively buttered up to her.
She noticed that Liu Yue was wearing this shop’s staff uniform and raised an eyebrow mockingly. “No, I don’t. I have Sister Pei Ge, whose taste is definitely better than yours.”
Pei Ge? Liu Yue froze a little at the mention of this name.
Feelings of hate and indignation rose from her heart.
This was when the door to the fitting room opened, and from within walked out Pei Ge.
Pei Ge, who had changed into the dress, exuded a graceful aura.
Although she was still slightly plump and her face was still round, her skin was as white as white jade.
The warm pink floral dress made her hidden beauty stand out.
“Wow! Sister Pei Ge, you look really pretty in that dress!” Qin Qitong exclaimed with sparkling eyes when her gaze landed on to Pei Ge.
Liu Yue looked with disbelief at the woman who had just walked out of the fitting room.
When she saw the dress Pei Ge was wearing, her face immediately turned ugly.
This – This piece! I know it! It is the newest worldwide limited edition apparel, and the only piece available in the capital!
Our boss said that someone has reserved this limited edition dress and should, therefore, not be sold to the public, so why is Pei Ge wearing it?!
Could it be that this dress was prepared for Pei Ge?
What rights does this fat and ugly woman have to wear that dress?! She clearly has nothing, so how can she enjoy all the good things in life?!
Why is she still in a lofty position when I am already in this low place?! How is she qualified?!
Liu Yue’s face turned more unsightly upon seeing the slight smile on Pei Ge’s face, and her eyes filled with hatred.
She had not been living well ever since she left Mother Ji’s side and sought Pei Shishi’s, instead.
Liu Yue only found out of the crafty Pei Shishi’s wickedness afterward.
That vicious woman was not even the least bit scared of her threats.
She also only discovered recently that Pei Shishi had taken the necessary steps early on to prevent herself from getting implicated in that situation with Pei Ge.
Therefore, the only one who would get the short end of the stick whether the plan failed or succeeded was her alone.
Liu Yue recalled how that vicious woman had looked down on her from above and threatened her in return.
‘Toe the line and I’ll help you get another job. If you don’t and want to go against me… He he! I will let you know what I am capable of. Of course, you don’t want me as your enemy, right?’
The thought made her shiver uncontrollably.
Pei Shishi, that woman, is really a snake! The most venomous one at that!
“Liu Yue?” Pei Ge of course spotted Liu Yue, who had an unsightly look on her face, the moment she stepped out of the fitting room.
Detecting Liu Yue’s malicious intentions, she frowned.
I clearly haven’t done anything bad to her, so why does she always treat me with hostility?
“Hur hur. Pei Ge, you really have a few tricks up your sleeve. Tsk. You can even afford luxurious goods now.” Liu Yue was green with envy, so her remark at her dripped with venom.
Pei Ge’s frown got deeper when she heard her mocking words.
She moved to retort, but Qin Qitong beat her to it.
“What do the things my family’s Sister Pei Ge buy have got to do with a petty woman like you?! Hmph!” Qin Qitong harshly demanded as she shot Liu Yue a contemptuous look.
“Who is the person in charge here?! Come here! Who hired this vile and rude salesclerk?! Do you have eyes?! Why would you employ such an uncultured person?! Are you sure you want to continue doing business here?!”
She raised her head and spouted a string of criticisms about the store.
Pei Ge was struck dumb by Qin Qitong’s display of dominance.
The Qin Qitong she knew was a casual and naïve little girl and not someone with such an imposing presence.
Only now did Pei Ge realize that Qin Qitong really was Ji Ziming’s cousin and was a rich man’s daughter. She was also someone who was in a different social stratum from her.
“Our sincere apologies! We’re really sorry, Miss Qin. This salesclerk just started working here and had yet to receive proper training. Please don’t be mad.” A woman in a black uniform rushed to stand before Qin Qitong.
Liu Yue finally regained her senses when she saw the store manager.
When she received the manager’s angry glare, she finally realized her faux-pas, and her face paled.
I can’t lose this job, too!
