Everyone was saying some very harsh things, and before Xia Anyan could react, Gu's mother couldn't hold back anymore.
She stood before the crowd, hands on her hips, and said, "Pah! What gives you the right to say that? Do you even know what kind of person my daughter-in-law is?"
"You only listened to what she said, why didn't you ask about the situation at the time? She herself said that she was a saleswoman at the Friendship Store. Do I need to tell you what kind of people those were? You didn't see it for yourselves, did you?"
One sentence shut everyone up.
Even if you've never been there, you've heard of it.
The people there look down on others.
Zhou Yatong panicked a little.
No, no, we can't let them be led astray.
Just as Zhou Yatong was about to say something, Sun Lingling arrived.
She was riding her bicycle to work in the morning when she passed by this place. She saw a crowd gathered here and heard Zhou Yatong's familiar voice, so she quickly stopped her bike and squeezed in.
Upon arriving, she witnessed this scene and was very worried: "Ya Tong, what's wrong with you?"
After saying that, she looked around at the people and pulled Zhou Yatong toward the back, saying, "There are so many people here, stop arguing and come with me." As she spoke, she tried to pull Zhou Yatong away.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Yatong flung her hand away, her eyes filled with disappointment and anger: "Sun Lingling, you've come at the right time! Look at them, they're bullying me! You won't help me, and you even tried to pull me away. Are you on their side too?"
“We’re good friends. You came here and didn’t ask me anything before trying to take me away. Do you want me to be a deserter?” Sun Lingling was momentarily stunned by the scolding.
No, what do you mean?
Before she could speak, Zhou Yatong shoved her: "Sun Lingling, I've seen through you. We're breaking up!"
Sun Lingling was taken aback by her sudden accusation. She opened her mouth, completely bewildered as to how things had escalated to the point of breaking off their friendship.
"Ya Tong, what are you talking about? I didn't mean for you to be bullied. I just think it's not a good look to make a scene here. Can't we talk things out properly?"
Sun Lingling didn't recognize Xia Anyan and Gu's mother, but when she saw Xia Anyan, she remembered what happened yesterday.
She was now absolutely certain that these two people were the mother and daughter Zhou Yatong had mentioned who went to the Friendship Store to buy things but left without buying anything.
Zhou Yatong's temper and personality are actually not very good. After all, her family is quite wealthy and she is quite spoiled, so she is a bit pampered.
It's understandable that she was upset after being insulted.
But that doesn't mean she can come here to cause trouble for people.
"Ya Tong, whatever you say today, I'll pretend I didn't hear it. Just come with me right now." Sun Lingling knew she was angry and didn't take it seriously.
Right now, all they're thinking about is getting the person away as quickly as possible.
If things escalate, it won't be good for anyone.
Thinking about what I saw yesterday, that someone could drive all the way to Beijing, their family must be quite well-off.
Zhou Yatong didn't understand why Sun Lingling was doing this, so she struggled even more fiercely.
She felt betrayed by her best friend.
She cried very sadly, and tears streamed down her face.
Xia Anyan pinched the bridge of her nose: "Aren't you overacting? Do you think everyone has to fawn over you? We both know who's right and who's wrong in this matter. Why pretend you don't know what really happened?"
"You think that by coming here to make a scene, you're in the right? And that your attitude is acceptable?"
Xia Anyan speaks frankly and without pretense.
She was very straightforward and explained the situation at the time.
"I don't know when it started, but the sales staff have started to think they're superior. They think we have to buy things from your counter, so they can look down on us. Isn't what you're doing supposed to be providing service?"
"I refuse to believe that your superiors didn't mention this issue when they were training you. If they didn't, I can go and have a serious talk with your superiors right now."
Xia Anyan made a move to leave, and Zhou Yatong finally realized the problem.
She just felt that everyone had to go along with her, completely forgetting the instructions given by her superiors.
As long as no one reports it, everything is fine.
Someone reported me...
"No!" Zhou Yatong objected vehemently. "How could you do this?"
She tried desperately to pull at Xia Anyan's clothes, but she was dodged.
Zhou Yatong broke down in tears: "How could you do this? You were the one who mocked us first. I asked you to apologize, what did I do wrong?"
"You can't afford it anyway, so why can't we say anything? What kind of place is the Friendship Store? What kind of mentality is it to go in and browse around for no reason? We didn't say anything wrong!"
She still doesn't think she did anything wrong.
Xia Anyan really didn't want to continue arguing with such a mentally ill person.
She leaned close to Gu's mother's ear and whispered a few words.
As Gu's mother walked back, she glared at Zhou Yatong before leaving.
Not long after, she came out with Old Zhang.
"Ayan, are you alright?"
Old Zhang was worried about his daughter and looked her up and down.
Xia Anyan smiled and shook her head: "Dad, I'm fine. However, I've run into a bit of trouble, and we might have to go to the Friendship Store again."
"How about we let Dad and Grandpa stay here and wait for Ah Shen's call, while you and Mom come with me?"
Old Zhang nodded, and without saying a word, he took the car keys and went to drive.
Zhou Yatong couldn't stop her, so she snatched Sun Lingling's bicycle and ran towards the Friendship Store.
She was going to find the manager and ask him to keep these people out.
She could take a shortcut by bicycle, and she actually arrived ahead of schedule.
However, when the manager heard her tell this story, his face turned dark.
"Zhou Yatong, do you not want your job anymore?" The manager slammed his hand on the table.
He just sent that ancestor away yesterday, and today this damned thing has been brought back again?
"Manager, you can't just ignore me! I... I couldn't stand it anymore. That woman really went too far. How could she say such things about us?"
"Besides, I wasn't the only one who got scolded yesterday; Sister Liu, Sister Sun, and Sister Wang did too. We've all worked for you for so long, Manager, you can't just abandon us!"
Zhou Yatong wanted to drag the others down with her, but the manager found it ridiculous.
He looked Zhou Yatong up and down, then clicked his tongue twice: "Do you think I'm a fool? Do you think they're fools too? If they heard you say that, do you think they would let you off the hook?"
"You want to drag them down with you? Do you even deserve it?"
Zhou Yatong's face turned pale instantly.
Everyone here has their own skills; otherwise, how could they come here to work?
She always fawned over those few people, simply because their abilities surpassed her family's. Now…
"Manager, please help me!"
