Chapter 487 Even the president couldn't persuade her, so what makes Pei Jinwu so special?
"How could she be like this? She can't even tell right from wrong!"
"She's taking advantage of her position to bully others. Didn't you see that the old lady and Zhong Man didn't do anything and just let her bully You Xue'er?"
"That's really strange. What kind of drug did she give the merchants?"
"The masses have discerning eyes; they can tell who is genuine and who is fake."
"Once You Xue'er proves that her gift is genuine, won't Pei Jinwu's face be slapped so hard he'll be bruised and battered?"
"..."
People around shook their heads and whispered among themselves, their tone shifting from initial curiosity to disgust.
Thinking about a girl with that kind of family background and character, she'll soon be climbing over them...
Everyone felt a tightness in their chest.
"Miss Pei..."
You Xue'er was almost laughing in anger. She put on airs and retorted without any politeness, "You can't rely on Shi Yan's power to distort the truth and maliciously slander me, can you?"
"You say my chocolate is fake, what evidence do you have?"
Shi Yan?
Is it Shi Yan again?
Why does it feel so awkward to hear those two words coming from another woman's mouth?
"evidence?"
Pei Jinwu, with his hands in his pockets and chin raised, said in a gloomy voice, "CR stopped producing this packaging a couple of years ago, didn't you know?"
"..."
Yu Xueer's throat tightened; she was deeply shocked.
Is that so?
She really didn't know.
She went through many connections and spent several days to finally buy these three boxes of chocolates.
It cost a lot of money.
After receiving it, she compared it with the pictures online, and there was no difference.
Pei Jinwu is trying to confuse the public and deliberately slander her, isn't he?!
"Miss Pei, if you don't have my packaging, do you have yours?"
Yu Xueer bluntly exposed, "When you're slandering others, can't you at least hide your own flaws first?"
What's wrong with Shi Yan that makes him insist on marrying a dim-witted, pretty girl?
“Of course I don’t have this one,” Pei Jinwu said unhurriedly. “Because this is a custom-made product by the manager of CR Chocolate Shop.”
"It was just finished yesterday and urgently airlifted to me."
"As for why there was no packaging..." Pei Jinwu raised an eyebrow and said lazily, "We ran out of colored paper, that's all."
"Exclusive customization?"
Upon hearing this, You Xueer paused slightly, a mocking smile appearing on her face: "CR's store manager hasn't personally taken action in the past five years, let alone reformulated the formula or made private customizations."
If you're going to lie, at least tell a story that's relatable.
The onlookers nodded in agreement.
Even those of them who don't eat chocolate know how famous CR is.
Once, the president of a certain country personally invited the CR store manager to make wedding candies.
Goodness.
They refused outright.
If even the president can't get her to come, what makes Pei Jinwu think she can?
"How about I give him a video call?"
After Pei Jinwu said this, the scene fell into a long silence.
Madam Shang and Zhong Man also stiffened up a bit.
Is it true or false?
As far as they knew, the CR store manager was nearly eighty years old.
Did you really make chocolate for Wuwu yourself?
"OK."
Yu Xueer forced a smile, not believing at all that she knew the store manager.
Just talking big?
Anyone can do that!
"OK."
Pei Jinwu calmly withdrew her gaze, opened her phone, and made a video call to the store manager.
Less than five seconds.
The video call connected, and suddenly an elderly man with gray hair, a wrinkled face, but full of energy appeared in the frame.
"My little darling, did you receive the chocolate?"
Before Pei Jinwu could speak, the other party shouted in a strong voice, "You need it too urgently, and you don't have enough materials. Otherwise, I would definitely make more for you."
"received."
Pei Jinwu twitched the corners of her mouth and smiled slightly: "Thank you for your hard work."
"What's so hard about it? Being able to make chocolate for my little darling is a blessing I earned in my past life."
The store manager showered him with praise, genuinely pleased.
That's the truth.
Many years ago.
His grandson is seriously ill, and they have been to many hospitals but to no avail.
On my way home to wait for death, I ran into my little tyrant.
The little ancestor went to great lengths, conducting experiments and climbing to the top of the snow-capped mountain to collect herbs...
After much effort, they finally pulled his grandson back from the brink of death.
She's a really nice person.
They didn't take a single penny, but left with two chocolates as payment.
This is a great favor.
How can a few pieces of chocolate make up for it?
"It really is the store manager from CR!"
Those who knew the store manager exclaimed in surprise, "I've seen him online, I can't be mistaken."
"Goodness, Pei Jinwu actually got the shop manager to make chocolates for her?"
"So the chocolate she brought wasn't just real, it was one of a kind in the world!"
"Luckily, the store manager is here. Let him identify what You Xue'er gave us..."
Hearing the sound.
Yu Xueer froze abruptly, her face turning pale, and her heart pounding wildly.
She just secretly asked the friend who bought the chocolate...
After repeated questioning...
The other party finally admitted that the chocolates they bought were counterfeit.
They even tried to argue that the imitation was so well done that even the CR store manager couldn't recognize it.
"This chocolate?"
Before she could react, the store manager's voice came clearly from the phone: "Our store is currently closed for renovations. Apart from this box, we haven't sold any other chocolates."
"These three boxes in the trash can, haha, they're fake."
Counterfeit goods?
The audience stared wide-eyed, mouths agape.
After all that effort...
The person who delivered the counterfeit goods was none other than You Xueer, a wealthy young lady.
A thief crying "stop thief!"?!
"The You family is considered a wealthy family, so why would they buy counterfeit chocolates?"
"Playing to her preferences and currying favor with Director Zhong Man. We all know what their intentions are!"
"They've gotten too cocky because they have some connection with Master Shang."
"I must say, Miss Pei is really calm when she's been slandered, and she's slapped people in the face without any hesitation. No wonder Master Shang likes her, I admire her."
"And the bracelet that Pei Jinwu gave to the old lady..."
Someone changed the subject, saying, "It looks ordinary, but it's not just any sandalwood."
"Especially the string of beads on the old lady's wrist. I just looked it up, and it's said to have been passed down from a Buddhist master hundreds of years ago..."
For those who worship Buddha, it is priceless.
“Miss Pei is truly thoughtful, unlike some people who just flatter and fawn.”
"Yeah, always talking about effeminate men. Knowing it's wrong to slander, are you going to shut up and pretend you're mute?"
"They don't apologize for their mistakes? Is this the Yu family's tradition?"
"..."
The winds shifted quickly; those who had previously questioned Pei Jinwu were now all criticizing You Xue'er.
Assess the situation and act accordingly.
They've been completely manipulated by these snobs.
"I--"
Hearing the voices coming from all directions, You Xue'er clenched her hands, her cheeks flushed, feeling extremely embarrassed.
Apologize?
She, the pampered daughter of the You family, has never bowed her head to anyone.
In particular, the other party seized the opportunity and stole her position as the young mistress of a merchant family.
Do you want her to apologize?
dream!
Just as You Xue'er hesitated, Shang Shiyan's voice suddenly rang out:
"Miss You, right? I suddenly remembered you!"
"?"
You Xueer suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with surprise.
Has he finally remembered himself?
Based on their childhood friendship, they'll definitely side with me, right?
"..."
Pei Jinwu frowned, feeling a slight itch in his fist.
I want to type something to relax.
for example--
The head of a Shang Dynasty inkstone!
——
good evening.
