I said in a deep voice, "This cheongsam is my birthday gift to my mother-in-law. Because of your responsibility, she made a fool of herself at the birthday party. I need you to send someone to apologize to her in person."
First of all, we need to give Zhao Xian an explanation.
The store manager nodded and said sincerely, "That's what I should do. I will personally go to your house and apologize with a gift."
I then said, "Secondly, I need you to issue a public apology on the media regarding this matter."
This was to give an explanation to the guests who came to the birthday party. On the one hand, it would save Zhao Xian's face, and on the other hand, it would clear my grievances.
"Well..." the store manager said in embarrassment, "Miss Lan, this is beyond my jurisdiction. If you insist, I can only report it to the head office for instructions."
She is just a store manager of a branch and does not have such great decision-making power.
I nodded and replied, "Just give me a reply as soon as possible."
After a whole day of hard work, I went home and took a nap in the afternoon.
I slept so soundly that I didn't even notice when Lu Zhiyuan came back.
I opened my eyes and saw him sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a tablet in his hand, as if he was dealing with work.
I was a little dazed. This familiar scene used to happen to me after my nap.
When we first started living together, I half-jokingly told Lu Zhiyuan not to take a nap alone at home.
Otherwise, if you sleep until six or seven o'clock, when you open your eyes and look at the hazy dark sky and the empty room, you will feel abandoned by the whole world.
So, every time I took a nap later, Lu Zhiyuan would always stay by my side.
At that time, he said to me infatuatedly: "Wife, I want you to be the first person you see every time you open your eyes."
The more unforgettable the past is, the more painful it is to recall it now.
I turned over, and Lu Zhiyuan heard my movement, put down the tablet and hugged me from behind.
"Honey, you're awake." He kissed the back of my head and asked me gently, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?"
I shook my head, clearing the good memories from my mind.
"Is your mother okay?" I asked him, changing the subject.
"Well, the manager of the cheongsam shop went to see her this afternoon and explained everything to her." Lu Zhiyuan told me.
I subconsciously asked, "Does she believe it?"
Lu Zhiyuan was stunned and his eyes dodged.
His reaction gave me the answer.
In fact, I should have guessed it earlier. Zhao Xian hates me so much that even if I am innocent, it will not affect her false accusation.
"Wife, you have done a great job." Lu Zhiyuan comforted me gently.
I smiled, but suddenly felt a little powerless.
I closed my eyes and said to him calmly, "I'm not hungry. Go ahead and do your work. I want to sleep a little longer."
I seemed to hear Lu Zhiyuan's faint sigh in my ears.
Then, a soft kiss was placed on my forehead.
The next day, I went to work at the company and had some free time for the first time in my life.
It wasn't until the afternoon, when I made a cup of coffee, that Yuan Yaxin called me.
"Hello?"
"Lan Shan, come with me to discuss a cooperation in the evening." She ordered me in a deep voice and hung up the phone.
This is her usual style at work, and I'm used to it.
Thinking that I would be transferred back to the administration department in two months at most, I gritted my teeth and continued to endure.
But I didn’t expect that the place Yuan Yaxin took me to discuss cooperation was actually a nightclub.
