Manager Liao of Jubao Pavilion's biased stance created an eerie atmosphere at the scene.
Ren Xiaoyang wore a smug smile, while his four subordinates looked at Qin Feng and his group with mockery.
Xiaoya's face was flushed, filled with resentment and unwillingness. This had infringed upon her interests; she could have received a considerable commission from selling a Golden Core demon beast.
Moreover, judging from her expression, similar incidents may have happened more than once.
This manager, Liao, abused his position and power to exploit his employees and line his own pockets.
But what could Xiaoya do? How could a mere sales assistant stand up to a manager?
Complaining? Don't be ridiculous. Who do you think the manager of Jubaoge will believe?
In the end, Xiaoya fell silent and could only swallow her anger.
Yin Tiantian wouldn't stand for that. She snatched the spirit beast pouch from Xiaoya's hand, stood behind Qin Feng, and shouted at Manager Liao:
"Who do you think you are? You can't just say it belongs to someone else. There's a proper order to things. You're the supervisor, but you're not the one in charge of the entire Jubao Pavilion. Hmph, this eagle is in my hands right now. What can you do to me?"
Yin Tiantian's move stunned Manager Liao and Ren Xiaoyang's group; they never expected this to happen.
The customers watching the show nearby also looked at Yin Tiantian in surprise.
"What a spirited young lady."
"It's just that I offended Young Master Ren, alas."
Manager Liao's brows furrowed with anger, his eyes fixed on Yin Tiantian. Wasn't this a blatant slap in the face?
Doesn't he have any pride? Does he even want to work in the industry anymore?
When Ren Xiaoyang came to his senses, he didn't fly into a rage. Instead, a lewd thought arose in his mind. The more charismatic a beautiful woman was, the more exciting it was to conquer her. His mind was already racing, and he began to indulge in endless fantasies.
His four henchmen also glared fiercely at Yin Tiantian.
Yin Tiantian faced it calmly. With her junior brother in front of her, she was not flustered at all, as steady as an old dog. She even made a face at them, which made them furious.
"Junior brother, it's up to you now."
Qin Feng smiled at her, "No problem, you did a good job, Senior Sister."
This is Jubaoge, Liao's territory, and it's time for him to speak.
"Gentlemen, this is the Treasure Pavilion, and everything must be done according to our rules. This was reserved by Young Master Ren long ago, so please exchange the eagle with us."
Otherwise, you will be blacklisted by our Jubao Pavilion and will be unable to shop there in the future.
Towards the end, it even became threatening.
But Yin Tiantian ignored him completely, focusing only on Qin Feng's reaction.
Qin Feng, Leng Yuexi, and Xiao Fan all remained calm and did not take the self-important Manager Liao seriously.
Standing beside them, Xiaoya saw Qin Feng and the others looking calm and confident, and she seemed to be encouraged as well. The pent-up anger in her chest that had been suppressed for so long finally burst out at this moment.
She told Manager Liao, "You're lying. There was no reservation at all."
Xiaoya's words startled Manager Liao for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, his expression turned extremely angry. He looked at her with icy eyes, daring to undermine him in public.
Xiaoya subconsciously took a step back, and Yin Tiantian patted her shoulder to comfort her.
"Don't be afraid, Xiaoya. If what you say is true, he won't be a supervisor for long."
Xiaoya forced a smile at Yin Tiantian and nodded bitterly. She didn't know what had gotten into her; she had acted too impulsively. Now, thinking back, she felt a little scared and regretful.
The other staff members at Jubao Pavilion were also stunned by Xiaoya's words.
"How dare Xiaoya do that?"
"We're being oppressed too much. That guy surnamed Liao is really no good. He always oppresses us laborers."
"That's right, I heard that this guy surnamed Liao is also interested in Xiaoya, and he's making things even harder for her."
"Ah, that explains it. But while it's easy to say, what will she do next?"
"Yes, we might have to leave Jubaoge."
They said these things in private, and Supervisor Liao and the others didn't hear them.
Supervisor Liao was very angry, his eyes filled with resentment as he stared at Xiaoya and said:
"Xiaoya, do you know what you're saying? You're ruining the reputation of our Jubaoge. Have you thought about how serious the consequences will be? You could be expelled from Jubaoge."
He tried to use the name of Jubaoge to pressure Xiaoya and make her change her mind.
Xiaoya is still panicking now that she's calmed down, but she's already said it and it's too late to regret it. She can only fight to the end.
“What I said is correct. There is no reservation at all. According to the rules of our Jubao Pavilion, if a reservation is made, a deposit will be collected and a receipt will be issued. The reserved items will not appear on the display stand.”
Xiaoya became more and more confident as she spoke. She looked at Supervisor Liao and asked, "May I ask, which one of these did you accomplish?"
Manager Liao looked at Xiaoya in disbelief. She seemed like a completely different person, utterly unlike the submissive and timid Xiaoya he knew.
The arguments are clear and logical, and supported by evidence.
Little did he know that where there is oppression, there is resistance, and even honest people have anger. Although Xiaoya herself didn't know what was wrong with her today, she suddenly became confident.
She glanced at Yin Tiantian and Qin Feng subconsciously. Was it their composure that influenced her?
Xiaoya's remarks left Manager Liao speechless.
He pointed at Xiaoya and said "you" several times.
His face was extremely ugly, but when he turned to look at Ren Xiaoyang, he had already put on a smiling face, as if he wanted to say something.
