Knowing the truth, Gu's mother understood why the two men were so agitated, but those unaware of the truth simply thought the father and daughter got along incredibly well.
This father, in particular, spoils his daughter terribly.
Even if a family is very wealthy, they can't buy so many things at once. Look at the two of them carrying so many big and small bags; it must have cost a lot of money.
But they only dared to say these things in private, not directly to the person involved.
People who can afford to drive cars and wear nice clothes must be either rich or capable.
If you say something unpleasant that angers someone and brings trouble upon yourself, then it's not worth it.
"Yatong, look! Those people over there look so familiar!" Across the street, two women were walking and chatting on the side of the road.
The sudden voices immediately caught their attention, and both of them looked in that direction, where they witnessed the scene from just moments ago.
Zhou Yatong was in high spirits, laughing as she told her friends about how hot things had been going on between her and her boyfriend lately.
Unexpectedly, I ran into Xia Anyan here again, and even saw the things she was carrying.
Most importantly, they were even able to ride in a car!
Her boyfriend was a manager at a state-owned factory, earning over seventy yuan a month. They couldn't even afford a car, yet this guy...
"Ya Tong, what's wrong? Why does your complexion suddenly look so bad?" Sun Lingling looked at Zhou Ya Tong, unsure of what was going on.
Sun Lingling and Zhou Yatong are good friends who have known each other for many years. They like to get together and chat when they have free time, talking about recent events.
Especially Zhou Yatong, because she works at the Friendship Store, she gets to see a lot of people and things, so every time after get off work, the two of them would chat about these things while walking together.
Sun Lingling was just an ordinary white-collar worker in a state-owned factory, earning a monthly salary of thirty-six yuan.
Although they work in different fields, they have a very good relationship and have been able to hang out together for so long, so they understand each other's temperaments quite well.
Seeing Zhou Yatong so angry suddenly, it was obvious that something had happened that she didn't know about.
"Ya Tong, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me."
Zhou Yatong took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.
She looked away and recounted what had happened at the Friendship Store that day.
“We didn’t say anything at the time. We knew that you needed foreign exchange certificates to buy things at the Friendship Store, and they didn’t have any. They just wandered around and left. Not only that, they also scolded us when they left.”
Zhou Yatong became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and the expression on her face changed.
Sun Xiaoxiao felt conflicted after hearing what she said.
Zhou Yatong didn't hear her best friend's agreement and was also a little confused: "Xiaoxiao, what's wrong with you? Didn't you hear what I said just now? Those two people, they bullied me and cursed at me."
Sun Xiaoxiao pulled Zhou Yatong aside and led her to a seat next to her: "Yatong, I think you made a mistake."
Two best friends almost got into a fight over this.
Zhou Yatong, in particular, simply couldn't understand why her best friend wasn't on her side.
She didn't even bother to listen to Sun Xiaoxiao's explanation and stormed off in a huff.
Our sisterhood of over a decade ended today.
Sun Xiaoxiao was also somewhat helpless, but seeing that the other party had already gotten into the car and driven away, she had no other choice but to go back first and think of another way.
...
Xia Anyan had witnessed everything that happened across the street.
Although she didn't know what the two people were talking about, she recognized one of them as a saleswoman at the Friendship Store.
The woman always seemed to have an air of superiority, holding her head high like a peacock.
Doesn't she get tired of doing this all the time?
"Ayan, what are you looking at so intently?" Gu's mother moved closer to Xia Anyan and looked out the window with her.
But by then, their car had already left the area, and Gu's mother hadn't seen anything.
Xia Anyan smiled and shook her head, not intending to tell Gu's mother about it.
Old Zhang was quite concerned about his daughter's situation, so he took the initiative to ask about her shopping trip.
He was just asking out of curiosity and didn't think anything bad would happen.
To my utter surprise, he actually heard it.
My daughter was looked down upon by the people at the Friendship Store?
How dare those people?
"Daughter, don't worry, Dad will definitely not let them bully you like this. It's just foreign exchange certificates, right? We have so many banknotes, we can just go to the bank to exchange some."
The old man had deposited a lot of things in the bank before, and he believed the bank would definitely not refuse to exchange them for foreign exchange certificates.
Xia Anyan understood what Lao Zhang meant, but she shook her head.
There's no need for that.
“Dad, I remember that Mom left me a lot of good things before. She told me that they were kept in a bank in Jing City. I want to take them out and consign them to Friendship Store.”
Friendship Store not only allows you to consign items, but you can also buy them.
She had already thought of the best way to humiliate them: take the items she needed to consign to them and let them all see them.
Old Zhang frowned.
“Those were all left to you by the lady.”
Xia Anyan shook her head, not caring.
She has a lot of good stuff, and her space can also connect to an online store, so she can just buy what she wants directly from there.
She felt that the most valuable items were the large goldfish. As for the so-called priceless treasures, she figured that if she bought a few fakes from the mall, those clueless foreigners would never be able to tell the difference.
"Dad, don't worry, I'll talk to Grandpa about it when I get back."
When the old man learned of this, he slammed his fist on the table in anger and immediately agreed.
"Take it, you must take it. It's just two things, right? I have plenty more. When we get back, I'll take you to get them."
He hid the things because he was afraid they would cause trouble for his granddaughter, but that doesn't mean he didn't have them.
A bunch of snobbish people actually mocked his granddaughter; they really think too highly of themselves!
Xia Anyan coughed lightly.
"Grandpa, please keep your voice down. We're not at home. If outsiders hear us, they'll think you're looking for a fight."
The old man blushed at his granddaughter's words.
Even so, he was still angry.
Old Zhang quickly stepped forward and patted his back to comfort him: "Dad, I think Ayan is right. Don't be too angry. Let's do as we just said. Slapping them in the face is much better than beating them up directly."
