Chapter 452 Discrimination
Without hesitation, Shen Mo went to call for help.
Jiang Ning went to find the two deans, but they immediately refused when they heard it was a banquet.
"These banquets and such are for you young people. We two old bones won't get involved. After such a long flight, we need to rest a bit more."
Seeing that the two deans really had no intention of participating, Jiang Ning had no choice but to leave with Shen Mo and the others.
The comrades who came with Shen Mo to protect Jiang Ning had never been abroad and knew nothing about English.
Fortunately, with Jiang Ning around, communication wasn't difficult.
Stepping out of the hotel, I saw towering skyscrapers in Motown, and now I had time to properly observe the city.
Jiang Ning led them around the city, looking for suitable shops selling formal dresses.
As they walked, Shen Mo suddenly said, "Someone is following us."
Who is it?
Hearing that someone was following her, Jiang Ning frowned.
They've only been here for one day, and they're already being watched?
Shen Mo said, "Don't worry, it was arranged by the president of Country D."
Hearing this, Jiang Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
This was, after all, abroad, and she still vividly remembered the kidnapping incident from last time.
But this awards ceremony is related to the honor of China's medical community, so she had to come.
Then Jiang Ning saw a dress shop on the street and immediately led her people into the shop.
The store was mostly filled with women, with only a few men accompanying them to buy dresses.
As I entered the dress shop, the shop assistants and customers all looked over.
Upon entering the store, Jiang Ning went to look at the ready-made dresses hanging on the side.
She was watching and paying attention to everyone on their side when she suddenly started chattering in a foreign language.
While Jiang Ning was looking at dresses, she was waiting for a sales assistant to come over and introduce them to her.
Understanding the meaning behind their words, Jiang Ning narrowed her eyes slightly.
Shen Mo's English was also quite good, and his eyes instantly turned cold and stern.
The other party seemed certain that they didn't speak English, and their voice became increasingly harsh.
"Judging from their appearance, they must be those backward races, the little yellow people. What are they dressed like? They're even worse off than the homeless people on the street corner."
"How can these little yellow people who eat white rice buy clothes in the same store as me? I've lost all interest in buying clothes."
"......"
They were saying discriminatory things, and they seemed to get carried away, gradually raising their voices.
Jiang Ning tiptoed and whispered something in Shen Mo's ear.
Shen Mo nodded and then walked out of the clothing store.
Having lost interest in looking at dresses, Jiang Ning turned to the suit section. She saw a suit that suited Shen Mo and was about to reach for it when a sales assistant came over and stopped her.
"Ma'am, are you sure you want to buy clothes?"
Jiang Ning said, "Please take it off so we can try it out."
Upon hearing this, the sales clerk looked impatient. "Sorry, we don't allow trying on clothes in our store."
Jiang Ning, “?”
How would she know if the clothes fit if she didn't try them on?
A foreigner in a suit walked out of the fitting room.
He said to the shop assistant, "I tried it on, the size is right, please take me to the checkout."
Immediately, another employee respectfully led the person to pay the bill.
Jiang Ning raised an eyebrow. It seemed that it wasn't that they couldn't try them on, but rather that they wouldn't allow Chinese people to try them on.
Unexpectedly, in this day and age, the discrimination against China by major Western powers has reached such a blatant level.
With a cool gaze, Jiang Ning glanced at the store entrance and asked the sales clerk, "Why was he allowed to try it on?"
Upon hearing her question, the shop assistant laughed and said sarcastically, "You Chinese are yellow-skinned monkeys, you're all dirty. If you try on the clothes but don't buy them, how are we supposed to sell them?"
The moment she finished speaking, the previously noisy clothing store suddenly fell silent.
Suddenly, the sound of synchronized footsteps echoed at the shop entrance.
The people in the store glanced over instinctively.
They saw a group of people dressed in D country military uniforms walk in.
Shen Mo said to the man in military uniform who was at the head of the group, "Is this how you treat your country's guests?"
He spoke in English, which surprised everyone.
They assumed these yellow-skinned monkeys couldn't speak English.
They saw the man in the German military uniform walk towards the Asian woman, his tone apologetic, "Dr. Jiang, I'm so sorry that your trip to Germany was unpleasant."
His words caused the customers and staff in the clothing store to widen their eyes in astonishment.
Why would their country's soldiers be so respectful to this Eastern woman?
Jiang Ning frowned, her face filled with anger. "Sir, they insulted our country with their words. I was invited to your presidential banquet and came out to buy some clothes when I heard such things. I felt insulted and hope that you will punish those who discriminate against people."
When the shop assistants and customers nearby heard her say that she had been invited to a presidential banquet, they were completely panicked.
They never imagined that this woman would have a relationship with the president!
The man in military uniform was silent for a few seconds before saying, "Dr. Jiang, please don't be angry. Please point out who insulted you, and I will have someone take him back to the police station for punishment."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning looked up.
Those who made eye contact with Jiang Ning subconsciously lowered their heads.
Jiang Ning raised her hand and pointed to the shop assistant who was taking small steps backward, "Her."
Then, he turned his arm and pointed at several guests, saying, "She, he, and they all said things that insulted me."
"OK."
The man in military uniform nodded and immediately waved, signaling the soldiers behind him to come forward and arrest the man.
The person who was arrested was taken away in a daze.
Jiang Ning watched coldly as the people who had used discriminatory language were taken away. She looked at the man in military uniform and said, "I hope your country, D, won't let this go too far. I will inform the embassy to follow up on this matter. If I am not satisfied with how it is handled, I will speak to your president about it."
Hearing Jiang Ning's words, he did want to protect his family, but Dr. Jiang was, after all, a guest of honor of the president, and her words carried some weight with him.
He said respectfully, "Dr. Jiang, we will give you an explanation for this matter."
Jiang Ning nodded, exchanged a glance with Shen Mo, and immediately walked out of the clothing store.
She was indeed quite satisfied with the clothes in the store, but now, she had lost the desire to spend money on them.
