Chapter 54 One Person, One New Clothes
"Hmph, a stain on the collar, it would take three days to get this bad. Miss Huang, could it be that your family went bankrupt and you want to wear new clothes all the time, so you resort to the shameless act of 'keeping buying, 'keeping returning,' and 'keeping wearing' clothes that cost only a few dollars?"
Huang Chengcheng was both ashamed and angry when her feelings were exposed, but she didn't dare to vent her anger on him. When she caught sight of Jiang Chao and Yun Xia walking towards her, she immediately went all out.
"Jiang Chao, you stinking cripple, you dare to come to the mall? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at? If I were you, I would stay at home for the rest of my life and never come out, so as not to... embarrass myself."
The words "shameful" were pronounced with extreme emphasis, as if the entire mall wanted everyone to hear them.
"Tai, once is never enough. This is the third time... no, the fourth time he's provoked me." Yun Xia narrowed her eyes and used the "pinching tiger's mouth" technique again.
"Ah, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, Brother Feng, quick, quick... save me."
The girl's eyes were filled with tears from the pain, and her pitiful, pleading gaze kept shooting towards the boy in the white coat.
Feng Jingling, with a mocking smile, threw the clothes in her hand at Huang's face. "Miss Huang, thank you for letting me discover the loophole in the system. From today onwards, the mall will establish a membership credit system, and because of your frequent returns and exchanges, you will be blacklisted. All stores will refuse to sell you anything."
In Huang Chengcheng's mind, being blacklisted by Puhui Shopping Mall was tantamount to being shut out of high society, and she... would never allow such a thing to happen.
“Brother Feng, you can’t do this to me! My dad has already found a buyer for that batch of goods. I believe that everything will be back to normal soon.”
With money, she would still be the factory director's daughter, Feng Jingling's childhood sweetheart, and be admired by thousands.
Feng Jingling had heard about this matter. Huang Yiming's business partner was a foreign businessman who wanted to stop the transaction. He secretly asked someone to investigate, but unexpectedly... he uncovered a big fish.
It's really hard to say who will win between the foreign investors and Huang Yiming, or who will cheat whom.
"The goods haven't been sold yet, so you're still a bankrupt lady. Please leave the mall immediately, or we'll have the loudspeaker broadcast your heroic deeds all over the place."
Being a young woman, she was easily embarrassed. With teary eyes, she gazed affectionately at the boy, stamped her foot, grabbed her dirty clothes, and headed straight for the stairs.
"Young Master Feng, this..."
"If she causes trouble again next time, just shut her up with a 'broadcast'. You did a great job. Now help my friend pick out some clothes!"
"Yes, young master!"
Yunxia swung her wrists while looking at the dazzling array of trendy clothes.
"The young lady is beautiful and has a good figure. She looks good in anything. Summer is coming soon. Would you like to try on a new dress?"
It has to be said, the salesperson's words were incredibly sweet, but unfortunately, Yunxia wasn't buying it.
"No, I'll just try on these few."
As he spoke, he quickly grabbed a few pieces of clothing, walked into the fitting room as if they were old friends, and soon pulled the curtain closed, spun around in place, and showed them to the three of them.
Wow, this is a great combination! It looks amazing!
Light blue slim-fit flared pants, a pure white slightly loose long-sleeved shirt, and a fuchsia jacket—the combination exudes a lively and beautiful vibe, making it exceptionally attractive.
"Heh, not bad!" He looks much better than Gu Xun with his punk style.
"Then... let's take this outfit, Jiang Chao, why don't you pick one out for An An!"
"Um!"
Jiang Chao picked and chose a slightly oversized, dirt-resistant outfit for the little one, to which Feng Jingling strongly protested.
"Ah Chao, none of the ones you chose fit properly, how could An'an like them?"
"Heh, what do you know? Kids grow fast! If you buy a size now that fits, it'll be too small by the time he wears it."
"Really?" The husky's small eyes were filled with great doubt.
"Big brother, yes!"
Feng Jingling shrugged, reluctantly accepting the situation. He got up, chose a comfortable outfit for himself, paid, and was about to leave when Yun Xia grabbed Jiang Chao's sleeve.
"What's wrong?"
"A family of five can't afford to buy only three new outfits!"
"What's the meaning?"
“I’ll pick out an outfit for Aunt Wu, and you can pick one out for yourself.”
Upon hearing this, the boy frowned and said, "I don't need it, just pick one out for my mom."
"That won't do! You're the face of the Jiang family. Dressing nicely will only dazzle the gossipy neighbors. Besides, you're always busy with the fruit business. As the small business owner, I have to reward my employees!"
Jiang Chao blinked slightly and smiled, "You're paying?"
The little girl patted her handbag and said proudly, "Of course, I have plenty of money!"
"Huh, sis???"
The boy scoffed, walked back into the store, went straight for the jacket and pants he had his eye on, and without even trying them on, had the ticket seller wrap them up.
Yunxia ignored him and wandered around for a long time. She picked out a blue dress and small leather shoes according to Aunt Wu's size, and also chose a fashionable loose-fitting suit.
When it came time to pay, they discovered that these items cost 50 yuan each, with Jiang Chao's outfit taking up the majority of the bill. Yun Xia, looking pained, paid the money and quickly left the clothing section.
...
"Little butterfly, look, a claw machine! Come on, let me show you my skills."
Yunxia and Jiang Chao, carrying large and small bags, followed behind him with a look of utter despair.
Tai, the husky's energy is just too much. He tried all the entertainment facilities in the mall, and he was only a few steps away from the exit, but he still had his eye on the claw machine.
After spending money on a bunch of tokens and trying to grab the prize more than ten times, the husky, deflated and with its ears drooping, said listlessly, "I'm not playing anymore. It's not fun at all. I can never grab anything."
Hearing this, Yunxia breathed a sigh of relief. "Okay, it's getting late, let's hurry home!"
"No, wouldn't it be a waste to use up the coins we have? Little Butterfly, come here!"
Yunxia, who had suffered greatly from claw machines, exclaimed, "No, I can't do it!"
Give me the coins. If I can't even catch one, wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing?
"for you!"
"I don't want to!"
During the stalemate, Jiang Chao, unable to bear it any longer, snatched all the coins and coldly said, "I'll pay!"
Feng Jingling raised an eyebrow, stood close to him, and stared excitedly at the wolf cub doll.
"Ah Chao, I want that wolf cub!"
Jiang Chao glared at him, then swiftly grabbed the husky plush toy, turned the handle, and with a thud, the toy fell to the exit.
Feng Jingling picked up the doll and said listlessly, "Hiss, this expression is so silly. Ah Chao, I want that super handsome and fierce wolf cub."
"Heh, it's good enough that you have one, why are you being so picky? Yunxia, which one do you want?"
Judging from that confident tone, he's definitely a pro at claw machines.
"The butterfly, that blue butterfly!"
Following the direction of his finger, Jiang Chao saw a butterfly reflecting light, hidden among a pile of monkey dolls. He narrowed his eyes, focused his attention, controlled the trajectory of his claws, and with a swift movement, precisely grabbed... a bee doll.
With a thud, the bee plush toy fell to the exit.
