Halfway through her sentence, the woman quickly lowered her eyes and looked at Qiu Mang. "Oh, Miss, I'm so sorry. It was all my fault. I was too reckless and impulsive. I accused you of stealing without even knowing the facts. It was all my fault."

Qiu Mang glanced at her sideways, thinking to herself: Now you know you're wrong? Where did that arrogant and domineering attitude go?

Seeing that Qiu Mang ignored her, the woman secretly glanced at Xu Jingyan. Afraid of offending this important client, she continued to lower her stance and apologize to Qiu Mang.

"Ms. Qiu, how about this? I see this child is frightened. Let's go to the hospital now and have him examined thoroughly, okay? I'll cover the expenses!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Jingyan immediately turned to Qiu Li and asked with a worried expression, "Qiu Mang, did Qiu Li's heart condition get better last time? Will it have any impact?"

Upon hearing this, the woman nearly collapsed to the ground. It turned out he really did have a heart condition! She had thought it was just a scare tactic!

Oh no, oh no, if something really happens, her life is over!

Qiu Mang stood up. "Alright! Let's go take a look!"

After arriving at the hospital, Qiu Mang led Qiu Li into the doctor's office for an examination.

In the hospital corridor, Xu Jingyan sat on a bench and received a message from another shop assistant: "Ms. Xu, are you satisfied?"

Xu Jingyan's lips curved slightly. [Satisfied.]

The double entendre meant to imply that she was very satisfied with the dress.

She was even more satisfied with what happened today. Today, she deliberately went to the fitting room with that female shop assistant to change clothes, and they stayed there for half an hour. In fact, she just gave that reckless shop assistant a chance to make her move.

The thought of Qiu Mang and Lu Yanting standing together made her furious, and she wanted to make things difficult for Qiu Mang.

Knowing that the shop assistant was simple-minded and had a bad temper, she deliberately left them outside. Of course, the shop assistant did not disappoint her, fully displaying her shrewish nature.

At the time, she hid in the fitting room and only came out when she saw that the situation was about right.

Not long after, Qiu Mang and Qiu Li came out of the doctor's office.

Xu Jingyan quickly stood up, a concerned smile on her face, "Qiu Mang, are you alright!"

Qiu Mang smiled and said, "It's nothing."

Upon hearing this, the female shop assistant next to her finally relaxed and let out a long sigh of relief.

Xu Jingyan glanced down at her watch and said in a light tone, "It's good that you're alright. It's still early. How about we go get something to drink?"

In the coffee shop.

"Qiu Mang, what would you like to drink?" Xu Jingyan asked with a smile, handing the menu to Qiu Mang.

Qiu Mang said calmly, "I've never had coffee since I was a child, and I really can't get used to it."

After saying that, she turned slightly to the side and whispered to the uniformed waiter beside her, "Two glasses of orange juice, please, thank you!"

Xu Jingyan smiled gently, "Oh, I see. I apologize for not thinking this through."

Qiu Mang returned a slight smile, "It's alright, Miss Xu doesn't understand me, so it's not your fault."

Qiu Li had already eaten before leaving the house, and was now full of energy. She was fidgeting in her seat, unable to sit still. She stretched out her chubby little hand and pointed to the children's play area in the corner of the cafe, her eyes full of expectation: "Sister, I want to go play there, is that okay?"

Qiu Mang looked in the direction Qiu Li pointed and confirmed that it was within her sight. Then, remembering what the little girl had just experienced, she thought that letting her go out and play might improve her mood.

So he gently patted her head and said softly, "Go on, be careful."

Once granted permission, the little girl skipped and hopped like a happy bird towards the playground.

Watching the little girl's departing figure, Xu Jingyan's smile gradually faded. She lowered her eyes slightly and said, "What just happened is all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been suspected and insulted for no reason."

At this moment, Qiu Li had already climbed to the top of the slide using both her hands and feet, and then quickly slid down with a "whoosh," her face beaming with the same joy and confidence as always.

Seeing this, Qiu Mang finally felt completely relieved and slowly withdrew her gaze.

"How can you blame yourself? You didn't expect this to happen either. Ultimately, it's because some of the staff are just not very professional," Qiu Mang comforted her softly.

Xu Jingyan sighed softly, her expression showing a hint of helplessness: "To be honest, this is the first time I've encountered such a situation. I never imagined that there would still be people who judge others by their appearance."

"It's just the norm in society. Especially for people who deal with rich people all the time, they automatically divide people into different classes. They will have a preconceived notion that these high-end stores are places only rich people go to, and that ordinary people like us would never go there."

Upon hearing this, Xu Jingyan raised her hand and gently brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, seemingly casually saying, "However, upon closer reflection, some things have their reasons for existing. Just like luxury stores, perhaps they really are a watershed for class division."

As soon as she said it, she seemed to realize something was wrong and quickly raised her hand to cover her mouth.

She hurriedly explained, "I'm sorry, Qiu Mang, that's not what I meant. What I meant was... it's about spending habits. Everyone has different spending habits, and I absolutely didn't mean to look down on you in the slightest."

Like Yan Ting, Hua Xiao, and Han Feng, we come from well-off families and have never worried about money. So we usually go to places like this. I never imagined that taking you to a place like that would lead to something like this.”

This means that what happened today was not her deliberately showing off her wealth; it was just part of her daily life.

Qiu Mang understood perfectly well that Xu Jingyan was implying that there was a class difference between her and them, that she wasn't part of their circle, and that they couldn't possibly get along!

Qiu Mang, however, didn't take it seriously. She smiled at her, pretending not to understand the implication in her words.

Seeing that Qiu Mang showed no signs of anger, Xu Jingyan breathed a sigh of relief, a smile returning to her face. She praised, "Qiu Mang, you are truly a wonderful girl, positive and optimistic, and your emotions are remarkably stable."

Qiu Mang knew in her heart that Xu Jingyan was clearly flattering her, but she didn't expose her. She took it as a sincere compliment and smiled, "Thank you for the compliment."

Xu Jingyan smiled and looked into the distance, her gaze distant, as if she were reminiscing about something.

“A girl like you is really great. You know what you want, and although you come from a poor background, you keep working hard.”
